P.S. WARNING: This one shot is ZIBBS
:::::::::::::::::::
Ziva approached Gibbs desk holding something behind her back.
Gibbs was 'sleeping' in his chair, his feet propped on his desk and his fingers interlocked behind his head as he leaned back.
"Gibbs," Ziva called even though the broadcast of her presence was unneeded.
Gibbs cracked open one eye and rumbled, "Agent David."
Ziva walked around the front of his desk and approached him holding something above his head. Gibbs looked up at the object and cocked an eyebrow in surprise as he registered what it was she held. He stared at her intently and she shifted her weight.
"Do you know what that is, Agent David?" he questioned giving her the famous intimidating Gibbs Gaze.
"A sprig of Holly from Abby's lab" Ziva replied unaffected by his subtle hostility as she wiggled the holly that had been dyed black by the Goth scientist.
Gibbs stood and looked down at the Israeli, "What is going on, Ziva?" he asked staring at her intently.
"Tony-"
"-Bet you to hold the harmless piece of plant over my head" finished Gibbs.
Ziva nodded seriously.
"How much?" he questioned.
"200"
"And you didn't wonder why such an exorbitant amount was being bet for holding a plant over my head?" he asked scolding her investigative instincts.
"Anything involving you is double" she said with a smirk, "Not that we bet on you" she retracted quickly.
"Did you know another name for Holly is Mistletoe, David?" He questioned, his gaze pinning her to the floor.
Ziva dropped the arm holding the mistletoe and twirled the sprig between her fingers. She looked down, inspecting the small plant that held so much symbolism in American society and tucked the sprig behind her left ear.
At the ding of the elevator Ziva shortened the small gap between them, "I want my two hundred dollars" she murmured leaning close.
Gibbs stared down into her liquid brown pools and she stared back into his deep blue. They could hear Tony's loud mouth approaching the bullpen.
Without breaking eye contact Gibbs extracted the mistletoe gently from behind her ear and placed it between her fingers. Grasping her wrist he held it above their heads,"Don't want to miss out on the chance to make easy money." he said with a smirk.
As Tony and McGee rounded the corner Ziva shocked all three men by quickly pressing her lips to Gibbs'.
It would have been an innocent two second kiss if it weren't for the slid of her tongue across his bottom lip, a movement invisible to their audience but all too prominent to Gibbs.
Ziva pulled back from Gibbs and sauntered over to her frozen co-workers holding out her hand motioning for Tony to hand over the cash. Tony dug through his pockets for his wallet too stunned to do anything but glance back and forth from his boss to his partner with his mouth hanging wide open.
"I think you should shut your mouth so you do not catch bugs, To-nee." Ziva smirked.
Tony finally located his wallet and pulled out the cash snapping his mouth shut in the process. But, before he could hand the money to Ziva it was snatched from his grasp.
Gibbs pocketed the large bills and head slapped all three of his agents before marching towards the elevator crooking his finger at Ziva, who followed without protest.
"What did you do?" croaked a mortified McGee as he watched Ziva trail behind Gibbs.
"I didn't think she'd do it" Tony managed to rasp.
McGee snorted in disbelief, "When does Ziva ever back down from a challenge?" he asked in disbelief suppressing the urge to head slap his friend. "I can't believe you bet her to kiss Gibbs!"
"I didn't" Tony objected, "I told her to hold a sprig of Holly over his head. I never said anything about kissing the Boss. I didn't know she was going to kiss him. I didn't think she'd have the guts" he said a little admiration leaking into his voice. It took some serious balls to pull that off, not that she'd live to tell.
"Did she know the significance of Holly?" questioned McGee.
Tony didn't answer
"Tony?!" McGee said letting the accusation leak into his voice.
"Well, she's lived in the U.S. for seven years…" Tony said trying to excuse himself.
"That doesn't mean she'd know," McGee practically shouted, a look of understanding crossed his face, "... You purposely called it Holly! You knew she would know what mistletoe ment."
"But that would mean that Gibbs…" began Tony ignoring McGee's accusation as processed the new information, "NO! Ewww! McGeek, enough with the mental images besides we both saw it, she kissed him."
McGee wasn't so sure but he wasn't about to voice his wild thoughts.
"What do you think he's going to do to her?" Tony asked wincing as he watched his mentor and his partner enter the elevator.
"When she tells him…"began McGee, "I wouldn't worry so much about her. I'd start worrying about what he's going to do to you when she explains her behavior was provoked by you"
A loud SMACK echoed from the elevator and out onto the floor cutting off Tony's worried protest.
"I'm dead. So dead," groaned Tony as he buried his head in his hands.
In the elevator
The smack rang in his ears, "You okay?" he asked roughly, pausing his assault.
Her breathe hitched, "Fine," she managed barely able to catch her breath, "It was not me. It is the handle bar, it is loose." She said bouncing on the bar making it repeatedly tap against the wall. He groaned as her movements purposely stroked her body against his.
He pulled her off the bar he had lifted her on top of and moved her to the other side of the elevator, "Better?"
"I kind of liked the background noise" she teased.
He grunted and nipped at her neck.
"I thought you would be angry with me"
"Confused." He answered.
"I did not want to give Tony an out. I was covering my plates"
Gibbs chuckled, "Bases, Ziver. Covering all your bases"
Ziva scowled and thread her fingers through his silver hair pulling him to her mouth.
"So, my lips were just an insurance policy?" he questioned pulling back.
Ziva blushed, "I knew"
Gibbs waited for her to elaborate.
"I did not want to lie so I did not answer when you asked if I knew that Holly was also known as Mistletoe."
Gibbs wasn't surprised. Ziva glared, "You knew" she accused.
Gibbs gave a throaty chuckle and shrugged.
"I had not really planned on kissing you but the opportunity was too good." Ziva shrugged.
"I'm glad" Gibbs said.
Ziva grinned, "I can tell. I was not sure what you would do…"
"Nothing, if it hadn't been for the tongue" he said with a twinkle in his eyes.
She laughed then sighed, "Tony will think you have murdered me and it is best if we do not worry McGee anymore."
Gibbs grinned and flicked the emergency button.
"Can I have my winnings, now?" Ziva asked as the elevator stopped at their floor.
Gibbs smirked and slipped between the elevator doors…
Ok so what did you guys think? Pleeewezzzz review!
