Chapter 15
Tony and Kate are at the stake out building. Kate is still sleeping. It's 4 A.M.
„Kate! Wake up ! It's my turn!" Tony hisses at the still sleeping Kate.
„Mmm..." Kate barely mumbles something in sleep.
„Kate!" Tony utterly yells.
„Tony! What the hell?" Kate finally gets up.
„My turn to sleep! Remember? You have to watch the girl's appartement now! "Tony reminds her.
„Ok, ok..." Kate says while heading to the living room.
„Good night!" Tony says before falling asleep.
„More like 'good morning' Kate murmurs.
At the NCIS building...
Abby's at her lab. Gibbs and McGee walk in.
„Hey, Abby!" Gibbs says which causes Abby to turn to him.
„Wow, Gibbs! Don't scare me like that!" Abby says.
„Meet your new co-worker. This is McGee. He should be the computer genius." Gibbs says jokingly.
„Hey! Nobody's a computer genius here but me. Got that right, McGee?" She asked.
„Um, yes miss." McGee says a bit freaked out.
„Ok, McGee, come with me. I'm showing you the lab." Abby says as she takes his hand, which makes him blush.
„Well make it fast, Abby, 'cause you've got some work to do!" Gibbs says before the elevator doors close.
„I know, I know. Don't worry, Gibbs." Abby says when she winks to McGee.
At the stake out house...
„Why is Gibbs making us do this anyway? It's 4:30 in the morning, for God's sake!" Kate talks to herself while rolling her eyes on every two minutes. Tony turns over in the bed, which makes Kate groan.
„Why did I even agree about the shifts thing? Should've known that things that come out of Tony's mouth are never good." Kate continues her outer monologue.
At the NCIS building...
Gibbs is watching the security camera videos from the stake out. He sees the one from the last night where Tony and Kate are bickering for a half an hour about her boyfriend. He can't help but smile, even laugh a bit.
„Hey Gibbs!" Abby shows up in the bullpen.
„Abby? What are you doing here?" Gibbs asks her, surprised by her appearance.
„Just wanted to see the security camera videos." She says.
„There's nothing to be seen, Abby." Gibbs smirks.
„Oh, come on. Gibbs!" She nearly yells.
„Sorry." Gibbs shrugs.
„You're such a meanie!" Abby grins.
"I know…" Gibbs winks at her.
At the stake out house…
Kate is still sitting at the floor. She's looking trough the window. She looks at Tony.
"Look at him…" She hisses. Tony chokes out while snoring.
"Could this get any worse?" Kate whispered after rolling her eyes.
Was he always like this? She thinks. She remembers how they met.
(Flashback)
'What are you doing?' She asked him when seeing him measuring the body.
'I'm taking measurements,Agent Todd.' He said with annoyance.
'Well, why?' She would ask him still confused.
'Because, we need to know all the details, right?' He sighed.
'But, wouldn't it be easier to recognize them from the picture?' She was persisting.
'Here. Can you know is she 6' 7" and C 34 or is she 5' 6" and D 36 just by looking at the picture?' He said when showing her a magazine cover with a blonde girl on it.
'You're pathetic' She smiled.
'No, you can't. So, that's why we take measures.' He smirked at her.
(Reality)
"Definitely was." She said. He choked out again while snoring.
"Oh, come on!" Kate groaned loudly.
