AN: Hello! Today I got a new haircut, and now I look like Kate! :D *Faints*

Anyways, this chapter is a bit more about Kate and Tony. It's not that fun, but I tried my best. Plus, it's kinda shorter.

SPOILER ALERT: Next chapter will be more about Ziva :0

Chapter 67

Tony woke up at the hospital. He found himself holding Kate's hand again.

The ordination door opened. Kate's doctor Jane stepped in, with a bright smile upon her face.

"Good morning" She said to Tony. Tony looked at her.

"Morning" He mumbled. He looked at Kate. She was still sleeping.

"When will she wake up?" Tony asked suddenly. Jane shrugged.

"She can wake up anytime. Louder sounds may wake her up" She said. Tony nodded, not taking his eyes of Kate.

Jane approached a cupboard next to Kate's desk. She left a tray with food on it. She gave Tony a light smile.

The doctor left the room. Tony looked at Kate expectantly. She still didn't wake up.

He sighed.

Gibbs' house…

Gibbs woke up to the sound of Jenny's breathing. He smiled inwardly at the thought.

10:00 AM was written on the digital clock on his cupboard. He got up from the bed. Jenny shifted across the bed.

Gibbs dressed up and sat by her. He slowly shook her shoulder.

"Wake up, Jen" He said gently as he pressed his hand against her shoulder. She smiled, with her eyes still closed.

"Five more minutes" She pleaded trough a whisper, ignoring the fact she has to work. Gibbs groaned playfully.

"Okay. I guess I'll just play the director today…" Gibbs mocked as he got up from the bed. He waited for the reaction.

At the word 'director' her eyes opened. Gibbs smirked.

"Now, a duty call wakes you, but your loving Jethro doesn't?" Gibbs said jokingly. She let out a small chuckle, while shaking her head.

"Come here" She motioned with her hand for him to come. He shrugged and sat on the bed again. She smiled, and afterwards, kissed his cheek.

Tony and Kate…

Tony was leaning on his right hand for a while. He glanced a few more times at Kate. Still asleep.

He looked at the clock above Kate's head. He would be probably late for work, but since Gibbs hadn't called yet, he just shrugged it off.

Suddenly, Tony heard a sound. Like a voice. He turned to look at Kate. Her mouth was moving.

"Kate? You awake?" Tony whispered as he wrapped his hand around her hand. She was obviously trying to say something.

"Uh…Water…" She said slowly, with her voice gruff. Tony quickly nodded.

"I'll go get you a glass of water now. You stay right there" He said and walked out.

Tony was in the hospital hall. It was very crowded. He was trying to find a water machine. A doctor passed by in a hurry, but yet, Tony managed to stop him.

"Can I help you sir?" The doctor asked, with a puzzled look on his face.

"Yeah. Is there a water machine somewhere around?" Tony asked. The doctor nodded.

"Right there, down the hall" He said.

"Thanks" Tony replied, and hurried down the hall. He spotted a water machine.

"Finally" He muttered. He took a plastic cup and filled it with water.

Tony hurried back to Kate's room. He walked in.

"Hey, sorry it took me so long" Tony apologized. She smiled weakly.

"It…ok" She said. Every sentence sounded so short and not completely formed.

Tony passed her the cup. She took it in her hand softly. He sat by her, watching her struggle with her every move.

After drinking a small amount of water, Kate turned to Tony.

"Where…Gibbs…Abby?" She questioned. Tony shrugged.

"Home, I guess. They've been visiting you all the time" He added. She smiled.

Jane came in, accompanied by two nurses. They were all holding clipboards. Tony looked at them questionably.

"We'll have to do some tests, miss Todd. You may not be completely aware" Jane said. The nurses nodded in agreement.

Kate swallowed.

Jane approached Kate.

"Okay, at first, this will seem absurd, but it's worth it" Jane explained, looking from Tony to Kate. She focused on Kate, as she sat on a chair.

"Okay, Caitlin. First, we'll have to examine your body for any bruises or injuries" She said. Kate moved her head as if she was trying to nod.

Jane removed Kate's blanket, revealing her legs. Jane looked carefully over them. She wrote something on the clipboard. She then examined Kate's arms. At last, she looked around Kate's face.

"What's wrong?" Tony asked. Jane looked up.

"Nothing. These will require a couple of stitches, that's all" She replied.

"Okay. I'm going to need a penlight" The doctor said as she turned around, facing the two nurses. One of the nurses quickly pulled out a penlight and handed it over to Jane.

"Thank you" She said and turned back to Kate.

"I'm just gonna check out your reflexes and your current eye state" She said to Kate.

She turned on the penlight, flashing the white glow straight into Kate's eyes. Kate quickly blinked. Jane scribbled something on the clipboard.

"Very good. Sensitivity is at its regular level" Jane said as she put away the penlight. She then pinched Kate's arm brightly. Kate yelped in pain.

"Okay, a little too sensitive" She muttered as she wrote on the clipboard.

"Are you done yet?" Tony finally interrupted the torturing.

"Just one more" She said. Tony rolled his eyes and lay back in his chair.

"How many fingers am I showing?" The doctor said as she showed Kate two of her fingers. Kate looked closely.

"Two…three" She said huskily. Jane looked at the nurses in amusement.

"Well, this is very good so far. We'll perform brain scanning later, including EEG" The doctor said to her. Kate tried to put the blanket on again. Tony did it instead.

"There you go" He added. She smiled. Jane and the nurses left the room.

"Why…you…here?" She weakly said. Before Tony could say anything, his phone rang. He sighed.

"Hold that thought" He said. He picked up the phone.

"DiNozzo on the phone" Tony said into the phone.

'How's Kate?' Gibbs asked. Tony looked over to see Kate looking intently at him.

"Uh, great, boss. She woke up" Tony said. He could hear a cough.

'She what!' Gibbs yelled. Tony gulped.

"Yeah, yesterday" Tony said casually.

'Why the hell didn't you call me?'

"I don't know, I was too excited and upset!" Tony said in his defense.

'Okay, DiNozzo. We'll visit Kate later' Gibbs said.

"Got it" Tony said.

'Oh, and, by the way' Gibbs added.

"What?" Tony asked.

'Get back to work, DiNozzo'

"Right" Tony said as he rolled his eyes. He hung up. He noticed Kate was looking at him.

"Gibbs. Wants me to get back to work. He'll come and visit you" Tony explained. She nodded, but winced afterwards. Her neck almost benumbed.

"I'll get back to you later, okay?" He inquired as he got up. She smiled in reply.

"See you" He said. He was gone with those words.

Kate sighed. She lay back on her pillow. Tony was on her mind.
