AN: I apologize for the late posting on this series. It's been a hectic week so far. But the good news is I get two weeks to write before a new episode, so it'll be worth the wait. First one is Tiva, as I have been lacking in that Tag arena lately. Enjoy!

Post Closing

Tony mocked her giggles before standing up from behind the cubicle and pointing at her. "I knew it…there is a little girl inside there somewhere."
She stopped her giggles momentarily. "And you are still a little boy."
He took a few steps towards her and chuckled a bit. "You're not gonna punch me are you?"
"You have not said you like me…" She moved past him and started to pack up her things.
He turned to face her. "So uh, this gonna become a common occurrence?"
"What?"
"You doing the air guitar and giggling like a little school girl…which was totally…"
"Do not say hot, cute, exciting or any other adjective. It was…fun. Nothing more, nothing less. Now can we move on?"
"Move on?" He put his arms out to express his disagreement. "Move on? Ziva David does the air guitar…albeit a mediocre attempt…but an attempt none the less…and I'm supposed to just move on? Not likely."
"Then perhaps I should punch you, yes?"
He threw his hands around in spastic circles. "Wax on, wax off."
Ziva could only stare at him dumbfounded. "You really should go home Tony…get some sleep."
"Aw come on. Mr. Miagi? One of thee most beloved movie characters of all time…" He watched her continue to stare in silence. "Okay, that's it. You're coming with me." He reached out for her arm and she dragged her feet along with him to the elevator.
"Where do you think you are taking me?"
"I do not think; I know. Casa de DiNozzo."
She shook her head. "It has been a long day Tony…I would like to go home."
"I insist."
"Why?"
Tony waited until the doors closed before coming right out with it. "Because…I like you." A few moments of silence passed between them before one sound was heard. "Ow!"
