NCIS:
GOODBYE, KATE…
DISCLAIMER:
NCIS AND THE CHARACTERS DO NOT BELONG TO ME.
SUMMARY:
It's been a year since Kate has been killed, Tony goes to visit her grave and tell her something he never got to tell her.
"Hey, Kate, I miss you. I can't believe it's been a year. I never got a chance to tell you that I loved you as more then a friend. I wrote you something and I can't show it to anyone else…
'God called his angels to bring you home,
but I was not ready to say goodbye to you.
Now it's been a year and I still don't know how to say goodbye.'
How do you move on or say a final goodbye if you had unresolved feelings?
We were friends and colleagues, but if Gibbs wouldn't have had rule 12. I'm sure we could have been more.
I should've talked to Gibbs and told him what I felt for you or we could've broken rule 12.
Now it's to late. Ari killed you one year ago today.
I know you are pain free and happy, but for me the pain is still there.
I lost my mom when I was eight, then I was in boarding school...I never felt like I had a family or a place to call home until I became an NCIS Agent.
Then I met you and I felt something that I never felt for any woman.
I was engaged to a woman, but it was different with you.
I know it's time for me to move on, but I wanted to let you know that I loved you as more then a friend or college. I was in love with you and I have a feeling you felt the same.
Remember what you said that one day?
Dammit Tony, I should just take you home and get you in bed.*
Why didn't you ever make a move or tell me that you were in love with me? Was it the way I acted?
I only acted the way I did keeping everyone at a distance to keep from getting hurt again.
I'm tired of putting myself out there and getting hurt. Thanks for listening, Kate…"
Tony said and at that moment his phone rang.
"...That's Gibbs and you know what that means...a case. I'll come back to visit again soon." Tony said putting on his sunglasses and setting the flowers beside the gravestone.
