Thank You to everyone who read my other super short little story that made me really happy, this is my treat to all of you :)

Disclaimer: Still don't won NCIS,

Cold it was extremely cold, why did it have to be cold outside he thought as he curled up into a ball to try and keep warm, as his thin blanket had proved useless against the elements. As he scooted to the corner he saw him enter the room, no please he thought not him again, and he tried to move away but it was too cold and he was stronger, much stronger.

No, he thought as he woke up with a scream and was sweating and nearly hyperventilating, reliving this last dream. It's Just a dream it's only a dream he said, trying to reassure himself. The last time he had these type of dreams was when he was a teenager and he was in high school, what could have set them off again? He glanced at his alarm clock and noticed that it was only four a.m and he still had plenty of time to keep sleeping and he really did want to, but deep down he knew that if he did go to sleep he would be tormented by those horrible dreams again and plus it wouldn't hurt to get ready earlier anyways. As he sat down at the table to drink some tea, he couldn't help but wonder what had brought on his dream, as he racked his brain for anything that might help him.

He decided to go to work early figuring that there was nothing better for him to do as he could either go to work or sit around in his apartment until it was time to go to work, plus with the snow shower predicted he was probably better off going early that way he wouldn't risk Gibbs' wrath for coming late to work.

"Tony, what are you doing here so early this morning?" Ziva asked confused at finding Tony so early in the morning just sitting nonchalantly at his desk.

"Nothing Ziva, why would you assume that I am doing anything" Tony replied.

Ziva turned and looked all around for an indication of any mischief he could have caused or any pranks she might fall subject to, as she saw Tony had that mischievous glint in his eye.

"Tony, if you are planning any prank on me , I assure you that it will not be funny, and in fact you will not even live to laugh about it," Ziva threatened.

"Don't worry Ziva; no sane person would try to prank you, well at least not any one with half a brain"

"Exactly why she's worried that you might prank her Tony," Tim stated having just come in and caught the last part of what Tony had been saying. "And you better not prank me either Tony, I'm not in the mood not this morning," Tim stated, feeling really tired and sleepy as he thought about going to sleep.

"Ooh, did McGrumpy wake up on the wrong side of the bed?" Tony asked quietly shoving the bottle of super glue in his hand inside his desk drawer, deciding that this was much more interesting.

"Shut it Tony, I don't feel like hearing your taunting today, Okay?" Tim bit out as he walked around his desk in an attempt to avoid Tony, even though it was in vain.

"Wow, McGee Tell Uncle Tony what happened that has got you all worked up did you lose at your precious Elf lord game probie?" Tony asked as he moved around and sat at Tim's desk.

"No Tony I did not lose in my game, because I didn't even go online yesterday, because I was busy and had stuff to do just like I do now, and don't you have anything to do anyways?" He asked

"Yes, he does McGee;" Gibbs answered startling all of them as he walked in with a cup of coffee in his hand. McGee never knew how Gibbs managed to get there quietly and unseen and enter at either the best or worst moment.

"Why yes Boss, getting ready to go do some stuff now, I was just talking to McGee that's all you know making sure he was being productive," Tony replied as he saw McGee roll his eyes and turn back to his computer .

"I don't think that McGee needs you of all people to make sure he is doing his job right Tony," Ziva countered, especially since you are the one who tries to run away from paperwork the moment you see it.

And with that the whole day continued on with the team working on either paperwork or cold cases as nothing had come up and they had nothing else to do. All the while outside the snow was falling gently on the ground covering everything in white, calming everyone inside except for one special agent who sat watching the snow fall as old memories began to resurface ones, memories that were not pretty.

Please review it would make me happy
