Hey!

Thanks for all the past reviews and alerts that I received in my last story! It inspired me to write another story! So as usual, I do not own NCIS or any of its characters. If I did, well... let's just say many things would have already happened.. Arghh! I can only wish!

Enough about me, onto the story!

Tough Love

Chapter 1

Special agent Antony Dinozzo was already tired enough from working non-stop for two days trying to solve a case. The team had finally caught the perp and put arrested him. It was pouring heavily outside and Tony desperately wanted to go home, have a warm shower, order pizza and watch the Magnum P.I. weekend marathon. He looked up from his desk and saw probationary agent Ziva David starring into space. He noticed that recently, Ziva had been acting weird on their case. He shrugged it off at first as fatigue but soon, she was very spaced out and that nearly got her shot while chasing the perpetrator. He became worried then.

"Earth to Ziva? Are you there?" Ziva snapped out of her zoned out state then and replied saying, "Shouldn't you be at home with your new girlfriend Annabelle watching Magnum P.K. yes?" "Its Magnum P.I. and yes I should. But I observed for the past few days that you have been acting very strange. Is everything fine?" "None of your business Tony." She snapped back. "It is my business; I am your partner and your friend. If anything is wrong, I can help you." He replied. "I don't need your help, I'm just fine. The last time you helped me, you killed someone. Just go back home where your stupid blonde bimbo, Annabelle is waiting for you." He got as he knew she referred to the events leading to Somalia. Angered by this and flashed a last glare at her and left the squad room. Ziva sighed and headed back as well after Tony had left.

The next morning, Tony walked back into the squad room, late as usual but noticed that only Mcgee was there." Where's the bossman and Ziva Mcgoo?" As if on cue, Ziva and Gibbs walked down from Mtac. Ziva grabbed a letter from her desk and handed it to Gibbs saying, I am hereby tendering my resignation she said with a tear drop rolling down her eye. Tony's jaw dropped and Mcgee starred between Gibbs, Tony and Ziva.
