A/N: So I wanted to make this a place where I can post one-shots, mainly because I don't want to make an extra story for each. They're all gonna be Zibbs, though, so no worries :D
Oh and have I mentioned that I haven't seen last nights episode yet?! I heard Tiva is happening, so I'm kinda reluctant… but yeah, work got in the way of me watching it this morning…
Moonlighting. (a prompt by drawingqueen)
They had been in Stillwater for a few days now, celebrating the 4th of July with Jethro's father. The rest of the team had come along when they found out that Gibbs wasn't going alone. For some reason unknown to the rest of the team, Gibbs had decided to take Ziva along to his hometown. Of course, no one actually knew that the two of them had been dating for almost six months – no one except Jackson and Ducky, who had been very happy with the news.
Since the whole team was there, Ziva and Gibbs had ended up without any alone time and separate rooms. Ziva was sharing with Abby and Jethro was sharing with Ducky, who would have been happy to give them some privacy, but the little hotel they stayed in had very thin walls and Dinozzo had already woken up from just the smallest noises. Their long weekend as a couple had turned into what felt like a way longer weekend with their friends.
He missed her. She was sleeping three doors away from him, but he missed her like crazy. Remembering a little spot he had found as a teenager, he thought up a plan which would give them some alone time after all.

The next day, Ziva received a little note which had been stuck under her coffee mug by none other than the man she usually woke up next to. Damn, she missed that. Opening the note, she wasn't surprised to find a tiny little map with a red dot that said: Here. After dark. There was no way she was going to pass up on this chance to finally be alone with him for a while.
Later that day, when the sun was gone and everything had gone dark, Ziva excused herself from the room she shared with Abby, telling her she would go on a run. Only 15 minutes later, she reached the spot that was marked on the map and looked around to see a few candles swimming on the lake in front of her.
'Hey…', she heard her favourite man growl behind her. It was a nice growl – one only Gibbs could manage – that made her a little weak in the knees whenever she heard it.
'Hey back…', she answered, slowly turning to face him.
He smiled at her and only a moment later, their lips were meeting for the first time in days. It felt good to finally have her in his arms again, to be able to kiss her without fearing someone might see them. This was what their weekend had been supposed to be about.

'I swear I saw candles on that lake… Seriously… Someone might be getting busy in the lake!', Tony told Abby and McGee, excited that this small town might have something funny to offer after all.
They walked through the woods, taking only a slightly longer route than the one Ziva had taken only an hour earlier, slowly getting closer to the spot where their boss was now skinny dipping with his most beautiful agent. As the three curious agents reached the shore of the lake, not far away from the place where they would have found their team mates' discarded clothes, Tony pointed at something in the lake.
'See, guys?! A couple making out in the late. No decency, those people.'
McGee had brought binoculars and dropped them after looking at the couple for only a millisecond. 'We should go back…', he stammered, unsure of how to react to the new information.
'But I wanna spy on them first…', said Tony, pouting like a child.
'Well, we are here… we might as well have some fun with it…', offered Abby.
McGee wondered what their reactions would be, once they noticed who they were spying on. But he did not have to wonder for long, when Abby picked up the binoculars and handed them back to Tim a second later.
'Okay, you don't wanna see this, Tony… Timmy is right, let's go back.', she insisted, but Tony grabbed the binoculars from McGee and looked at the couple.
'Yeah… let's go…', he said after a second. He was obviously sad at what he had seen. His crush for Ziva had been going on for a while now and he had always hoped he'd have a chance with her someday. That hope had just been shattered into a million pieces, as he watched Gibbs kissing down Ziva's neck in the lake, and Ziva threw her head back in ecstasy.
Apparently, she had found a man who could make her happy, and Tony Dinozzo was not that man.
The End.
A/N: Okay, this turned into a bit of an anti-Tiva thing… but then again: their ship is happening and I'm just here writing more and more Zibbs, unsure if I can handle Tiva in any way, so yeah… I'm gonna need some alcohol when I watch the new episode… or a lot of alcohol...
Anyway… I hope you liked it… reviewers still get imaginary cookies :D
