He couldn’t think. He could barely breathe. His mouth was dry.
He stared at Kate. Swallowed.
“You’re going to what?” he exclaimed. Loudly.
She smiled gravely at him and tucked her hair behind her ears. “I’m thinking of quitting, Tony. It’s nothing definite, but I’m thinking about it.”
“But,” he managed, “why?”
She sighed. The look on her face suggested she’d been waiting for him to ask. “I…it’s personal,” she settled on.
“Ari? It’s not because of him, is it?”
She didn’t answer.
“Look, Kate. You’re a good agent. You can’t leave! I’ll have no one to have food fights with!”
“McGee will still be around.”
“Well, he’s no fun.”
“Tony. Please don’t make this any harder. I don’t even know if I’m going to leave for sure. I just have a really bad feeling that if I don’t, something bad will happen.”
He had no response for that. Rather, he chose to sit still and let the numbness in his gut wash over him. After a moment, he stood and headed for the elevator. Behind the closed doors, he sunk back against the wall and covered his face with his hands.
“This cannot be happening!”

God, I miss her too. There's always that "what if" in my mind. So unfair. I enjoyed them together. *sigh* Liked it. And I agree, there should be more Kate centered fics around.
