Untitled

Tony exited the Director’s office and made his way down to the darkened bullpen below. The bullpen was empty, the others gone home long ago and only a few desk lamps were left on giving the place that comforting feel Tony always enjoyed this late in the evening. He made the right decision, he was sure of that now as he sat down at HIS desk. He wasn’t ready to leave here just yet even if he was given his own team, this place was home, these people family, how could he just give that up so easily?

Okay the team had hit a rough patch at the moment, what with Gibbs leaving and coming back. There was a lot of tension in the air, but still he wouldn’t give Gibbs coming back up for anything, even if it meant being back at his old desk. Yeah it was hard going back to being second in charge again but he never did get comfortable sitting at Gibbs’ desk. He suddenly found himself thinking he was like Goldilocks, no matter what his desk would always be “Just Right!” Tony grinned to himself and began looking around the bullpen at the empty desks, images of some of their crazier moments they shared came to mind including their little scene that day “Gibblets!” he chuckled thinking of McGee and Abby playing with that morphing program they has found on the Lt’s computer. He glanced over at McGee's computer ‘I wonder if that program is still on there? I could have some fun with that’ He thought, trying to think of ways to get back at McGee for his joke of showing what his and Ziva’s kid would look like ‘ Ha! I’ll show you!’ he thought.

His eyes moved of their own accord to Kate’s - ‘No! Ziva’s desk...Kate’ His smile faded and his shoulders slumped as if all the energy from his body disappeared at the mention of her name. He had been getting better at not thinking about her, but Gibbs’ slip up of names recently kinda made it difficult to ignore. “Kate” He sighed as images of what was and what could have been flashed before his eyes. The constant talk of marriage and kids these last few days really wasn’t helping matters either - ‘Kids’ A fuzzy image of a girl with Kate’s eyes haunted his days and nights but the image was never clear enough to hang on to...

His eyes past back over McGee's empty desk, zeroing on to his computer. Tony slowly got up from his desk and made his way hesitantly over to the younger agent’s side of the bullpen, all the while checking his surroundings for anyone entering the squad room. The computer’s starting programs seemed to take forever to load, adding a slight shake to Tony’s already nervous body. After checking his surroundings one more time, he brought his attention back to the computer and began looking for that program. ‘What did Abby say it was called? ah that must be it’ The program loaded and Tony released a heavy sigh trying to get rid of some of the tension and nerved in his body. He clicked here and there and before he knew it he was staring at his and Kate’s service record pictures. Just one click way - He checked his surroundings again, his nerved causing his mind to become paranoid about being caught, especially doing something like this! Satisfied he was still alone he clicked and held his breathe.

The image of a female appeared in the middle of the screen and aged to mid 20’s. Tony gasped - she was gorgeous! Kate’s eyes, nose, his mouth and hair colour stared back at him. Before he even realized what he was doing he pressed print, then made the image appear as a young child about five years of age - Print again! He couldn’t stop himself! He moved the mouse to close the program but stopped ‘What about a boy?’ He quickly changed the gender and started the process over again. This time it was her eyes, with his colour, his nose and his mouth staring at him. He repeated the process as before, printing out the two images and closed the program as if it had burnt him.

What the hell was he doing? This was insane! Talk about torturing oneself! But still he grabbed the print outs, placing them in an envelop and grabbed his stuff and headed for the elevator. He stepped into the awaiting carriage and waited for it to reach his destination, all the while clutching the envelop to his chest. God what had he done? Not only would her face be haunting his dreams tonight but the faces of two children that would never be would be right along side her. His eyes closed in defeat - God what had he done indeed...?
