Leap of faith again, rigth after McGee pulls Tony of the edge of the parkingbuilding thingy.
"I love you McGee."
It just popped out, there had been no way he had been able to keep those words in. The moment he saw McGee running towards him while he was hanging over the egde, his heart had started to beat even faster and he felt himself starting to grin like an idiot. Tim, his prince, was coming to his rescue.
Tim's heart stopped beating all together when he saw Tony hanging on that edge. He knew that in their line of work there were always risks, but that didn't mean he had to like it. Before he even realized he was almost flying towards Tony's level. He didn't remember pulling Tony up, he didn't remember sagging down against the wall, but he felt Tony's had touch his shoulder, letting him know that he was still alive and Tim had to respond to that touch.
That split second there was a weird something of a connection. Tims warm hand against his, his hand against Tim solid shoulder and he is able to breath a little easier. This are a little easier in his universe knowing that he is still there and Tim is still there for him.
McGee couldn't be happier listening to Tony blurting out that he loves him. He knew it, Tony has said it many times before and not always during sex, but sometimes during happy moment. But Tony saying this after hanging on the edge of the building meant something. Because he blurted out the first thing that was on his mind. And the thing on Tony's mind was that he loved him. Tim closed his eyes and leaned his head back.
"I know" was his whispered response before he pulled Tony to his feet.
