TORRES' POV:
Today's the day Ellie's coming out of the hopspital, I saw her last week and she looked great, still underweight but she was back!
"Hi Ellie." I said coming behind her.
She turned around and hug me, this was the best thing I've ever felt in so long.
"Hey!" I said with a voice that obviously showed how much I wanted this.
"Hi!"
"I see you're happy to be out of here." I said laughing.
"Yeah it feels so right like I'm finally able to go back to work, but mostly to see you." She said with a big smile on her face that changed in a questioning one.
"What's up?" I said concerned.
"Do you still want to be with me? I get it if you don't, like you proba-"
I kissed her because she had no idea how much I wanted this.
"Does this answer you're question?"
"Yeah, pretty much." She said smiling and kissing me back.
In the car we talked about a few things and it was so great.
"B.?"
"Yep?"
"When are you coming back? To work I mean?"
"Tomorrow I have to meet with Vance, Gibbs and Jack, I'll know after, I'm not even sure to be taken back if the person replacing me's great."
"He's okay but he's not you and even after a month, Gibbs calls him 'Bishop' sometimes so you're definitly coming back."
"Awesome!"
"Okay, do you want me to pick you up tomorrow ?" I said as we got to her place.
"Ellie?" I said since I she didn't answer.
"You okay babe?" She was staring at her bedroom wall.
"Who fix it?"
"What?"
"The hole Nick, who fix the hole?"
"Oh, Gibbs did."
"Oh okay." She said in a weird tone.
"Is it bothering you?" I said grabbing her waist.
"No I just... wanted to be sure it wasn't in my head."
"No, no, it wasn't, you have your hands to remind you of that." I said taking her hands in mine.
"Oh yeah." She said with a little sarcastic smile.
"So, do you want me to pick you up tomorrow morning?"
"Oh no I'm fine. I can still drive."
"Okay well Imma go home and I see you tomorrow then." I said kissing her forehead. "Unless you want me to stay?"
"No I'm fine Nick."
"Okay well, call me if anything's wrong."
"Yep!"
"See you tomorrow!"
