Chapter 64

(**Flashback**)

'We've got some very exciting news' she said happily.

'What is it?' Tony asked, already feeling his heart pumping.

'Miss Todd's state is better. She will be transferred to Bethesda'

Tony couldn't even speak because of his excitement.


"Really?" Tony barely stuttered. The doctor nodded. Tony quickly got up from his chair and hugged the doctor.

"Okay, sir, you can let go now" She said and slightly pushed him off. Tony blushed.

"Sorry. I gotta tell Gibbs!" He replied and frantically ran out of the room. She shook her head.

Tony pressed the button of the elevator excitedly. As soon as the elevator opened, he stormed in.

Gibbs and Jenny…

"Jethro, what is wrong with you?" Jenny asked for the hundredth time. Gibbs sighed and parked the car in front of their hotel. Jenny groaned. They both stepped out of the car.

"Why won't you talk with me?" She questioned as she approached him. Their faces were inches apart now.

"I'm thinking" Gibbs muttered and turned to his car. Jenny rolled her eyes.

"About what?" She asked. Gibbs didn't respond.

"You're thinking about Agent DiNozzo and Agent Todd again, aren't you?" She said. Gibbs tilted his head.

"You are!" She hissed.

"So?" He finally said.

"They're not going to get together, Jethro. When she wakes up, Agent DiNozzo will go back to being himself, and Agent Todd…well she'll eventually recover. But there's nothing between them" She assured him, even though she knew she was lying.

"Yeah, right. You know that's not true, Jen. This will end up like us" He said and put his hands in his pockets.

"They're not us, Jethro. And what was that supposed to mean? Are we something bad?" She took a step forward.

"No, and you know that. But we both suffered without each other. And it would mean risking lives" Gibbs replied. She sighed.

"They risk their lives every day, Jethro. It's their duty" She said.

"No. They could get the whole team into trouble" Gibbs gripped her shoulders. His phone suddenly rang.

"We'll talk about this later" He said and took out his phone.

"Gibbs" He answered the phone.

'Boss! You're not gonna believe this…'

"What is it, DiNozzo?" Gibbs literally barked into the phone.

'They're gonna transfer Kate to Bethesda tomorrow!'

"What? Who?" Gibbs asked.

'The doctors!'

"I'll see you later DiNozzo" was all Gibbs could say. He hung up and put his phone back in his pocket.

"Jethro? What is it?" Jenny asked, concerned. Gibbs had a blank look on his face.

"Answer me!" Jenny slightly shook his shoulders.

"Kate's being transferred to Bethesda" Gibbs finally said.

"She is?" Jenny asked excitedly. Gibbs nodded.

"Yup. Let's go get some rest, okay?" He suggested.

"Yes. We need some" She said with a light smile. He returned a smile back to her. They both headed to the entrance of the hotel. Gibbs put his arm protectively around Jenny's shoulders.

Tony…

He looked at his watch. It was eight P.M. He was already in front of the hotel.

"Okay, time to spread the news" Tony whispered to himself. He entered the hotel and went straight into the elevator.

As soon as the elevator door swept open, Tony ran out of the elevator. Since Gibbs knew, he had to tell Abby and McGee first.

He quickly knocked on the door. Abby opened the door.

"Oh, hey, Tony. I told you, it's enough for to…" She started, but Tony cut her off.

"Kate's being transferred to Bethesda" He said in a breath. Abby's mouth turned from a genuine smile to a huge grin.

"Oh my God! That's awesome!" Abby squealed and jumped on Tony.

"Uh… Can't…breathe" He barely said. Abby immediately removed herself of him.

"Sorry. I can't wait to tell McGee!" Abby exclaimed. McGee showed up behind her.

"Abs, what's wrong?" He asked sleepily. She turned to him.

"We're going home! Kate's being transferred to Bethesda!" She yelled and hugged him.

"That's great, Abby! Now, please let me go" McGee said. She kissed him and then pulled away from him.

"Okay, I did not have to see that" Tony said, with a hint of disgust in his voice. McGee and Abby blushed.

"Sorry, Tony. But, you have to accept the fact I like Abby" McGee said casually and shrugged. Both Abby and Tony dropped their jaws in shock.

"Okay, this day cannot be any weirder than this" Tony muttered to himself and walked out of their apartment.

"Bye!" Abby yelled after him. She then turned to McGee.

"What was that?" She hissed.

"I have no idea. It just came out of me" McGee said, looking as confused as Abby was. She hugged him.

"That's my boy" She replied.

Tony headed to Jimmy's and Palmer's room. He knocked on the door.

"Come in!" Tony heard Ducky's muffled voice. He pressed the doorknob and opened the door. There was a slight surprise in the room: Ducky and Jimmy were playing with playing cards, while both in pajamas.

"Um…?" Tony was left speechless.

"Oh, hello Anthony. Palmer and I were both suffering from insomnia, so we decided to play a party of poker. Would you like to join us?" Ducky said in his funny British accent. Tony blinked a few times and then slapped his forehead.

"Okay, this day is officially the weirdest. Anyways, Kate is being transferred to Bethesda" Tony finally said. Both Jimmy and Ducky smiled.

"Well, those are astonishing news you have there, Anthony. I'm looking forward to this. But, is Caitlin better?" Ducky replied. Tony smiled.

"Yeah, but she's still in coma" Tony said with a light shrug. Ducky nodded.

"Oh. Well, good night, Anthony" He said with a loud sigh.

"Okay, Duck. See you" Tony said and with that he walked out.

"But, doctor, when are we going to pack?" Jimmy nearly whined.

"Relax, Palmer" Ducky said casually and looked at his cards again.

Tony appeared at Gibbs' and Jenny's door again. He knocked. After a few moments, Gibbs' face showed up.

"Where the hell have you been?" Gibbs asked angrily.

"I had to tell Abby, McGee, Ducky and Palmer about Kate, is that a problem?" Tony replied, utterly harshly. Gibbs glared at him, fixating his icy blue eyes into Tony's. Tony gulped.

"Okay. Come on in" Gibbs said quietly. Tony stepped into the apartment.

"Where's the Director?" Tony asked.

"Over here, Agent DiNozzo" A female voice said. Tony turned around. He saw Jenny packing a suitcase. She smiled.

"Are we flying tomorrow or what?" Tony asked casually and sat on the couch that was next to Jenny.

"Yes. Jethro contacted the hospital for the details. We're flying separate from Kate" She said. Tony sighed at the mention of Kate's name. Gibbs looked at him.

"You should go and sleep, Tony. It's good for you" Gibbs suddenly said. Tony looked at him questionably, but said nothing. He went in his room and shut the door behind him.

"Okay, Jethro. Why are you so cold towards him?" Jenny hissed. Gibbs sighed.

"I don't know, Jen" He whispered as he sat on the couch. Jenny was slightly shocked.

"What do you mean, 'I don't know'?" She asked and sat by him. He shrugged.

"I just don't know. He's not the only one who's shocked by Kate's death" Gibbs said. Jenny tilted her head.

"I know that, Jethro. The entire team is" She replied. He shook his head.

"No, Jenny. Something's wrong, and my gut is telling me that!" Gibbs nearly yelled as he got up.

"Well, why don't you take a rest and think about it? I'll pack the suitcase" She said calmly. He nodded.

"Okay. Thank you, Jen. Thanks for everything" Gibbs said and kissed Jenny's forehead. She smiled. With that, Gibbs walked away, leaving her alone on the couch.

Tony took off his trousers. He sat on his bed and sighed. Kate was on his mind. It all happened so fast. They going undercover, she gets shot, Ari shooting himself… Besides that, he had a feeling something didn't fit in.

But, he ignored the feeling and covered himself with a blanket. He was glad that Kate was at least alive. He closed his eyes and quickly fell asleep.

The next morning…

"Wake up, DiNozzo" A voice said. Tony slowly opened his eyes, only to find Gibbs staring at him. Tony gasped.

"God, Gibbs! You scared the living hell out of me!" Tony hissed as he got up. Gibbs laughed.

"It's my job" Gibbs said with a shrug.

"Ready to go?" Jenny showed up at the door. Gibbs nodded.

"Let me get dressed up" Tony said and headed to the bathroom with his clothes. Jenny chuckled. Gibbs gave her a peck on the lips.

Tony was already dressed up, and now he was brushing his teeth. After a few moments, he walked out of the bathroom.

"I'm ready" He exclaimed.

"Okay!" He heard a respond from the living room. He walked into the room, where he found Gibbs and Jenny watching TV. Jenny noticed him after a few seconds.

"Let's go then" She said. Gibbs got up along with Jenny. They all left the room.

After they got out, they saw Abby, McGee, Ducky and Jimmy standing in the hall, all engaged in a deep conversation. Gibbs whistled suddenly, making them all stop and look at him.

"Let's go, people. We've got half an hour to get on our plane" Gibbs exclaimed. They all nodded and went down the hall. Gibbs and Jenny shared looks and walked behind them. Tony turned around to look at the hotel room.

It was still the place where he came after finding out about Kate's state. The place where he washed off Kate's blood, and his tears. He sighed and followed Gibbs and Jenny.

30 minutes later…

They were all at their plane now, fastening their seatbelts. As the plane took off, Tony muttered to himself:

"Here we go again"
