A/N: Final Chapter! Sorry it’s taken a little longer then expected. It’s so much easier to write when you use an episode then writing original stuff! Less work on the brain! Thanks for all the reviews! They really do make my day.
Can’t say whether this is the very end or not. Perhaps there may be another episode done at some point in the future, but it won’t be for a little while. May get some of my other stories finished & posted, who knows!
Oooh BTW, SWAK is on next week here in the UK, which means the following week is…cringe Me & my best mate are in complete Twilight-denial! She’s in witness protection:p We plan on buying s2 at some point & watching all the eps but just stopping Twilight just as Kate take the bullet for Gibbs! She’s still alive!!!!!
A couple of weeks later the team had finished their latest case involving a young sailor who had drowned in what appeared to be a video game gone wrong. That afternoon, Tony and Kate had finally signed the papers to officially buy the house they wanted. They were set to move in the following week. “You ready to leave this place Tony?” Kate asked him while they were getting changed for bed.
“I’d move into a shoebox if it meant that I would be with you.” He walked round the bed to stand next to her and wrapped his arms around her waist.
“You can be so sweet when you want to be.” He grinned at her, “It’s just that it’s normally when you want something.” He put on a mock hurt look.
“I’m hurt Kate! Do you really think so low of me?”
She smiled, “Of course I do!” He looked shocked, but noticed the glint in her eye. “But I love you for it!” She raised her head so that her lips touched his. What started out as a simple peck soon became more heated. Despite protests from Tony, he reluctantly pulled away when he felt Kate’s lips leave his own. “Let’s make sure Emily’s asleep before we make too much noise.” He grinned when she winked at him and followed her out the room.
After checking that the little girl was in fact asleep, Kate placed a small kiss on her forehead and they headed back towards their own bedroom. “Now, where were we?” Tony asked when they lay down on the bed. She grinned as he lowered his head to hers.
“Where do you want this Kate?” Abby asked as she carried another box into the house.
Kate glanced up at the forensic scientist and pointed upstairs, “First on the right.”
As Abby walked into the bedroom, she noticed the other boxes already in the room. An open one lay near the door. Inside she could see baby items that must have belonged to Emily. Although she knew that the previous weekend Tony, Kate and Emily had driven back to Kate’s old house to collect the rest of the things left there and finish selling the house, Abby was surprised to find out that they hadn’t thrown away some of the items. Something dawned on her, ‘unless…’ Placing the box she was carrying next to the other ones, she ran back downstairs.
“Kate!” The Special Agent looked up at her friend. “Is there something you’re not telling me?”
Kate was confused, “Like what?”
“Like why you have some of Emily’s baby stuff out.” Kate wouldn’t look her in the eye. “Are you…?” She pointed to her abdomen.
“No. Not yet anyway.” Abby seemed to perk up slightly.
“But you’re trying though?” Kate smiled. Giggling, Abby wrapped her arms around her friend, squeezing tight. “That’s great news. So Emily can have a little brother or sister. If it’s a girl, can she be my mini-me?”
Kate laughed and slapped her on the back. “Unless you want Tony to kill you, I wouldn’t advise it.” Abby joined in the laughter, as she pulled back from the embrace. “You never know, you may have a kid of your own one day.”
Abby looked shocked, “I doubt it. Could you imagine me with a kid?” The lab tech became suddenly shy.
“I’ve seen you with Emily, and you do a fantastic job. Perhaps you’ll meet a computer geek to love!”
She blushed, “Thanks Kate. I suppose I should keep my eyes pealed for my night in shining armour.” She paused, thinking, “Although he may very well be virtual.”
Kate laughed, shaking her head, “Only you Abs!” Abby grinned back.
He was brought out of his reverie by the constant shouting of Emily. “Daddy! Don’t forget my teddies!” She pointed to the toy unit in the corner, where several still lay sleeping.
“Ok Sweetheart!” He looked over at his daughter and then his watch. “We’re nearly finished and soon you can go to sleep in your new room.” He could see the bags beginning to form under her eyes, and the fidgeting as she was trying not to portray how tired she was. She had woken them up at 6am that morning jumping on the bed shouting how excited she was about moving. Unfortunately she hadn’t slept since then and it was coming up for 7pm.
The fact that Emily had complied and sat down, almost falling asleep, showed how tired she really was. On a normal night, it would have taken a lot longer for the little girl to agree – she had Kate’s stubborn streak – but somehow she had worn herself out over the day.
Once he saw that she was asleep, Tony placed the last few teddies on a box and carried it out to the car, before returning to pick up Emily. When he reached the front door he stopped, looking back at the memories, before looking down at his daughter. As sad as he was about losing this place, he was overjoyed to have Kate and Emily back in his life again and didn’t plan on losing them again. He gently placed Emily in the car, handed his key to his landlord who had arrived and drove off towards the new house.
It wasn’t long before Emily was ready for bed, even if she was only half awake most of the time, and Tony had finished with the boxes. “We can unpack tomorrow.” He told her as he walked in the bedroom. She was already getting changed and nodded in response. “Don’t know about you, but I’m in the mood for an early night!” He looked at the clock, 7.45pm. “Perhaps this is a little early, you wanna watch a movie?”
She got up and headed towards the living room. A few moments later she returned with Die Hard 2. “Thought we’d follow on from last time.” She told him after noticing the smirk on his face.
The last time they’d watched a film together, it was Die Hard and Kate had spent most of the time snuggling up the Tony. He wondered whether this film would have a similar effect. They lay down on the bed, his arms around her waist and sat back to watch the film.
By the end of the film, Kate was asleep. He looked down at her face, brushing a strand of hair from her cheek. “What did I do to deserve you?” He whispered.
“I keep asking myself the same question.” Came the reply from the ‘sleeping’ agent. She lifted her head and smirked at him.
“I thought you were asleep.”
“Well you thought wrong then.” She smirked again. When he looked her straight in the eyes a moment later, she could see the seriousness in them. “What is it?”
He looked down for a moment, “Are you happy?” He felt her finger under his chin.
“Of course I’m happy. I’m more then happy.” She leaned in and kissed him, just to show how happy she was. “Now, why don’t we work on that idea of giving Emily her wish?” She winked at him. His response was a kiss, which pushed her onto her back, “I’ll take that as a yes then.” She said once they broke for air.
He grinned down at her. “Well, we have the house now.” She laughed and nodded, “So we are completely serious about this then?”
“100 percent!” She brought his head down for another kiss.
The end
