AN: Hey guys! Sorry if Kate was OOC a bit. REVIEW, please!
Chapter 44
Kate and Tony...
Tony, Kate and Gibbs are driving to the hotel. The ride was very quiet.
Gibbs parked the car. Kate and Tony both got out of the car, but on the separate sides.
"Okay, let's check in" Gibbs said and opened the trunk to get the luggage out. Tony and Gibbs took care of the luggage, and Kate was checking out the hotel. Tony took his suitcase and approached Kate behind her back.
"How does it look?" He whispered, which made her gasp.
"It's okay, but it's not five stars really" Kate replied.
"Well, that's too bad. Tony, carry Kate's luggage" Gibbs appeared behind them.
"Why would I carry her luggage?"Tony whined. Gibbs gave him the do-it-or-I-will-fire-you look, so Tony took it and mumbled something under his breath.
They entered the hotel and looked around a bit. Gibbs left Kate and Tony to look around, while he approached the reception.
"Excuse me, I'd like to check in" Gibbs said politely with a smile, which seemed shocking.
"Yes, of course. Your name, please?" A woman replied, smiling at him too.
"Daniel Jones" Gibbs said confidently.
"Yes, you're staying for the night. Enjoy your time here, here's your key" The woman typed something into her computer and handed him the room key.
"Thanks" Gibbs nodded and turned towards Kate and Tony. He came closer to them.
"Come on, we got to be moving. You should check in too" Gibbs said.
"On it, boss" Tony said, half whispering. Kate and Tony went over to reception too.
"Ooh, she's a hottie!" Tony whispered in Kate's ear, which earned him a hit in the ribs. He winced in pain.
"Don't try anything stupid" Kate hissed.
"Whatever you say" Tony said, still holding his ribs.
"How can I help you, sir?" The receptionist smiled at Tony, checking him out.
"We would like to check in" Tony replied, smiling.
"Looks like we have lots of guests today" She giggled, and Kate rolled her eyes.
"Yeah. Our names are…" Tony started, but Kate quickly cut him off.
"Emma and Mark Bell" Kate said coldly.
"Okay" The receptionist said and quickly typed something into the computer. Tony just glared at Kate.
"Yes, here's your room key" She said and handed Kate the key.
"Thank you" Kate said, and pulled the confused Tony by his arm.
"Kate, what the hell was that for?" Tony whispered, looking intently at her.
"She was flirting with you, Tony!" Kate hissed.
"Jealous, much, Katie?" Tony said, wiggling his eyebrows. That earned him another elbowing.
"Okay, you're not" He grimaced, holding his arm in pain. She rolled her eyes.
"You could have just blown our cover away!" Kate said angrily and pushed the button on the elevator.
"Sorry" Tony shrugged. Kate just glanced at him and entered the elevator. He followed her. After a short and quiet ride they appeared on the second floor. Their apartment right in front of the elevator. Tony approached the doors and took his key out.
"Hey, where's Gibbs?" Kate asked, looking around the hallway.
"Relax, Katie. He's probably down there, enjoying free coffee" Tony jokingly said and laughed. He finally unlocked the door of their apartment. Before he could come in, he saw Gibbs glaring at him. Tony jumped in shock. So did Kate.
"Boss, what… are… you… do…doing… here?" Tony stuttered between long breaths.
"Just wanted to make sure you come here as fast as you can" Gibbs said calmly.
"But… how did you…?" Tony asked, but wasn't able to finish because of Gibbs' fast head slap.
"None of your business, DiNozzo" Gibbs interrupted. Kate and Tony finally stepped into their apartment. It was looking like any other hotel room.
"Okay, you two. I'm leaving you alone, now. I'll be back in my apartment if you need something" Gibbs said and walked out, which surprised both Kate and Tony. They exchanged confused looks.
"Okay, Tony. I'm going to unpack and you… whatever" Kate waved off with her hand and headed to the bedroom.
"Okay" Tony yelled to Kate, who was in the bedroom already. Kate walked into the room and gasped when she saw a king-sized double bed. I am NOT sleeping with DiNozzo! She thought.
Ooh, nice bed" Tony's voice suddenly appeared near her ear, making her slightly jump.
"Idiot! You scared the hell out of me!" Kate blurted out.
"Sorry" Tony said and jumped on the bed.
"Tony, I am NOT sleeping with you in the same bed!" Kate yelled angrily.
"But, why? It will be comfier" Tony rolled on the bed a few times, tapping one side of it. Kate sighed.
"I'm going to take a shower, Tony" Kate announced.
"Mind if I join you?" Tony smirked evilly. She shot him a death glare and slammed the bathroom doors behind her.
