Deanna didn't know what to expect and Tony led her to his hotel room.

"Close your eyes" Tony told her.

She put her hands up over her eyes as Tony opened the hotel room door.

"Ok now you can open" Tony said with a grin.

As Deanna walked into the room, there was rose petals scattered across the room. On a table was a dozen red roses. As Deanna looked around the room Tony had candles placed around to set the mood.

"Come in here" Tony said from across the room motioning also with his finger. She walked over to him and found a bathtub filled with bubbles and rose petals. On the side was lit candles and a bottle of champagne. There was a small plate of chocolate dipped strawberries. Tony had really outdone himself.

"Let me help you out of this" Tony said unzipping her dress. He pulled her hair up into a clip so it wouldn't get wet. As he helped her out of her dress, he began to kiss her neck. He helped her out of her undergarments and into the bathtub. He got in behind her and began to rub her shoulders. Deanna had thoughts of why he was doing this but then thought what the hell and let him. Whatever he wanted to do tonight was fine by her. Again he started kissing her neck. A sensation ran through her. One she had not experienced with anyone else. They finished their glass of wine and strawberries and got out of the tub. She was so relaxed. There was no way she could drive home now. As she reached for her clothes, Tony hurried and picked them up and put them behind his back.

"Nah-uh not just yet." he said with that quirky smile.

He dropped them behind him and ran his fingers though her hair to the back of her neck. He pulled Deanna to him and started passionately kissing her. She jumped and Tony caught her. She wrapped her legs around his waist. While still kissing her, he took her into the bedroom and laid her down on the bed. He climbed on top of her and began to make love to her. She was more than willing. She looked into his beautiful green eyes. At that moment it seemed as though everything in her life was ok. It was like the accident never happened. Nothing else mattered except for being with Tony. He was amazing at what he did to say the least. When they were done, they both laid on the bed together.

"That was amazing" Tony said smiling.

Deanna propped herself up on one arm. "You weren't too bad yourself." They both began to laugh.

"Stay with me tonight." Tony said. His smile had faded and he had more of a passionate and caring face.

"What?" Deanna questioned taken back by his request.

"Stay the night with me." He said.

How could she say no. "Ok" she answered. Deanna rolled closer to Tony and laid her head on his shoulder and her hand on his chest. He wrapped his arms around her and held her. This just seemed right…to the both of them. Deanna fell asleep fast. Tony stayed awake for a while. He had so much on his mind. It was crazy to say it but he was falling hard for Deanna. He ran his fingers through her hair. She was gorgeous. He could picture a future with her. He laid there and had somewhat of a daydream. He could see them getting married, her joining NCIS, having a two story house, hearing the pitter patter of little feet coming down the stairs in the morning and their kids jumping in the bed with them. Life just made since with her. He needed her in his life. He pulled her close and fell asleep. Morning came way too soon. The sun shining through the window woke Deanna. She had quite the headache from drinking so much last night. She looked around the room and noticed this wasn't her bedroom. She was shocked to see Tony lying beside her. Was she still dreaming? Tony's phone began to ring and it woke him up. He sat up in the bed.

"Good morning beautiful" Tony said kissing Deanna. Deanna was shocked. He sat on the side of the bed and answered the phone.

"DiNozzo where are you?" Gibbs asked.

"I'm still in the room." Tony answered rubbing his eyes.

"Well get down here to OSBI. Ducky is almost done with the autopsy. Also do you know where are witness is?" Gibbs asked irritated.

"Yeah" Tony said looking back at Deanna and smiling.

"Ok bring her with you."

"I'm on it boss." Tony said before hanging up his phone. He turned to Deanna.

"Looks like we get to spend another day together!" Tony said with excitement.

"What do you mean?" Deanna asked

"Gibbs wants you to come down to autopsy with me."

The thought of getting to spend more time with Tony made Deanna smile.

"Here I'll run you down to the Devon so you can get your car." Tony said

"I am going to need some different clothes. I am not going into autopsy in a cocktail dress!" Deanna said.

"True" Tony said with a smile "Even though you would be the prettiest person in the room." This made Deanna blush big time.

"Tell you what, I will follow you to your house so you can get some clean clothes and then you can ride with me to OSBI." Tony said.

"That will work." Deanna said. She got up and hurried to try and get what clothes she had there at the hotel back on. Tony helped her by zipping her dress. Tony slipped on some slacks and a button up shirt. Before they knew it they were heading out the door. When they got to her house, Tony helped he get dressed. He really was so much help. She grabbed her cell phone and they were out the door.

Once they got to autopsy, Gibbs was not happy.

"Your late!" Gibbs spat.

"Sorry boss." Tony said. In typical Gibbs fashion, he slapped Tony on the back of the head.

"Deanna I have a question for you. What did you say the car belonged to?" Kate asked.

"My boyfriend Tanner Perry. Or as I should say my late boyfriend." Deanna answered.

"Actually I don't think we have our person." Ducky exclaimed.

"What do you mean Duck?" Gibbs said a little worried.

"Well I pulled the dental records. This 'ol boy is an officer but it's not Tanner Perry." Ducky answered.

"If it's not Tanner who is it?" Deanna asked.

"It's a Jake Dozerman." Ducky answered

"Oh God." Deanna exclaimed beginning to cry.

"Dozerman was the one that greeted us right as we got off the plane." Kate said

"Precisely. But the part that's tricky is Dozerman was dead long before the car was set on fire. There was no smoke in his lungs. However, I was able to find bullet wounds to the head, chest, and arm." Ducky explained.

"That means he was murdered?" Tony asked.

"I'm afraid so." Ducky answered.

"What about the license that was found at the scene?" Deanna asked.

"He tried to make us think it was him. Our man is still out there. If he finds out the Deanna is still alive, he could come back to finish the job." Gibbs spat. "Tony, I want you and Deanna on the next plane to Washington. We need to get her as far away from Oklahoma as possible. Kate I want you to call Capt. Holt and tell him what we found and to be on the lookout for Perry. Good work Ducky."

Deanna was taken back. Gibbs wanted her to leave her life behind in Oklahoma and just up and move to D.C.? This was a dream come true yet she was beyond scared.

"Come on let's get you on the plane." Tony said.

The fact that Tony would be watching over her comforted her. As they drove to the airport she texted her parents.

Tanner faked his death. He is still out there. Stay where you are and be safe. I am being taken to D. C. by NCIS until this all blows over. I will keep in touch.

Will Tanner be able to find her? And will Tony and Deanna start a relationship in D. C.? New chapter up soon. Please review!
