"I could ask you the same thing." Kate said. Everyone could hear how angry Kate was by her voice.

"You didn't answer my question" Gibbs said annoyed that Kate wouldn't answer.

"I don't have anything to tell that I haven't already" Kate said after a couple of minutes of silence. Gibbs got really mad at Kate for not answering what he asked and got out of his chair and walked over to stand in front of Kate.

"WILL YOU JUST ANSWER MY QUESTION ALREADY. WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE, SPECIAL AGENT TODD?" Gibbs said shouting at Kate. Kate was angry at him for yelling like that at her in front of all the other people, she also wanted to cry. She knew she couldn't control her emotions and decided to run out of the room instead. Stella saw the emotions running through Kate and when she ran out of the room Stella decided to run after and see if her friend was all right.

In the bathroom

Stella walked in through the doors and could here Kate crying already.

"Penguin are you okay?" Stella asked and saw Kate sitting in one of the stalls with her head in her hands.

"No... I..I'm.. Not" Kate responded with some trouble because of tears.

"Oh Penguin. You don't have to be upset over your emotions. I know you're pregnant and can control them. Lindsay was the same way some days. I probably would too if my boss was yelling at me" Stella said to comfort Kate.

"It's not that. He not just my boss, Stella. He's the father of my child. He was the reason I left in the first place. We have been having fights just like this one, just much worse. I knew he would be mad that I didn't tell him I was leaving but after our last fight I just couldn't look at him. I love him with all my heart, what am I supposed to do?" Kate asked with more tears running down her checks.

Back in the conference room

"What was the yelling for boss?" DiNozzo asked. He was the first person after Kate and Stella left who said anything.

"Don't DiNozzo" Gibbs said

"Yes I will. She my friend and partner. You can't treat her like this. She's a good agent and you know it. I told you about the email she send me. And if you ask my I think she wanted to get away from you. Over the last couple of weeks all you have been doing is fighting, McGee help me out here" DiNozzo said. He could tell something was going on between Gibbs and Kate. They were at each others throats all the time. McGee was about to answer when the door opened and Hawkes walked in. Gibbs, Mac, and Danny was glad they could talk about something else. McGee was glad he didn't have to say anything about to Tony or Gibbs.

"Hawkes what have you got?" Mac asked

"As I told you over the phone there was a note there. The victims were two females, I would say mother and daughter. Just like at the other scene the offender didn't leave anything behind. But I do think this is something personal" Hawkes said as he sat down in a chair beside Danny and across the NCIS team.

"Okay. What makes you think this is something personal?" Gibbs asked, but before Hawkes could answer Kate and Stella got back in to the room.

"Okay you wanted my help with a case right?" Kate asked and looked at everyone except Gibbs.

"Yes we would like your help to profile the offender for us. We don't have many clues to who he is, so this will really help us." Mac said and turned to the board behind him to start explaining the case. Both he and Stella told Kate about the case. After they were done they turned to Kate and waited for her profile.

"This probably sounds strange, but from what I have heard I think you are looking for an offender who is doing this for personal reasons. It look like he was waiting for NCIS to came and help. And with the latest crime scene you can see that. I don't think he will stop here. He won't stop before he gets what he wants" Kate said and had everyone's attention.

"Hawkes find out who the two victims are and get the autopsy report from Sid" Mac said

"Mac I think we should find out why we were brought together. It must have something to do with some of us" Gibbs said after Hawkes was gone.

"I think so too. We could think about something, but we can't make any decisions before we know who the latest victims are." Mac said and walked out of the room to his office. He wanted to look at something, he didn't know if it was connected to the case, but he didn't want to risk anything. Gibbs wanted to talk to Mac about a gut feeling he had and walked out after Mac. Stella and Kate decided to go to her office and have a little talk. Stella wanted to know more about Kate and Gibbs' relationship. When Kate had called her six month ago she had found the love of her life she was really happy for her. Stella knew she had found hers too, but wouldn't ruin the friendship they had. Stella knew she loved Mac as more than a friend, but she didn't want to get hurt if the feelings weren't returned.

I know it's a short chapter, but I got stuck. I promise my next chapter will be better. I still hope that you will review my story. It helps my write the chapters. If people wants to read them, then I will write more chapters.

I'm going on an Easter holiday so the next chapter won't come up for another two weeks, sorry.
