'Gear up, we got a dead marine' Gibbs yelled. The team grabbed their bags. Walking out Tony brushed his hand against Ziva's ass and she shot him a dirty look. Once they got to the site Gibbs sent DiNozzo to interview the witnesses, McGee to bag and tag, and Ziva to photograph the evidence. The Marine was lying on the floor in his kitchen in a pool of blood.

Tony and Ziva drove together back to NCIS. 'I don't understand why you wouldn't let me drive.' she said.

'Because I still want to be alive by the end of this case my crazy ninja.' Ziva rolled her eyes at the answer. Not amused by him picking on her driving once again. Ziva put his hand on his knee and squeezed it painfully as he yelped in pain. 'What the hell was that for David!' Tony yelled as Ziva bit her lip to keep from laughing.

'I suggest that you do not make fun of my driving again, Tony.' Ziva smirked. Tony glared at her but his expression softened when he looked into Ziva's eyes. Tony pulled over to the side of the road hoping that today would be the day that Tony and Ziva finally acted on the sexual tension. Tony and Ziva both leaned in. Ziva could feel Tony's breath on her which made her shudder with pleasure but before their lips could meet Ziva pulled away.

'No Tony, we can't.' Ziva said quietly as she went to turn away. 'Rule number 12, remember?' Tony looked puzzled as he thought about what Ziva had said. He cupped her face had her look him in the eyes. 'I don't care about Rule Number 12. All I care about is that I want to be with you. And nothing can get in the way of that.' He said as he caressed her cheek.

She smiled a small, innocent smile as she thought over what he had just said in her head. After thinking carefully, she nodded in agreeably and leaned in. As their lips met softly, Ziva knew immediately that she wanted to be with Tony and hoped that he had felt the same way.

Tony's tongue battled Ziva's inside her mouth. He deepened the kiss passionately running one of his hands through her hair and the other remained on Ziva's waist. As she ran her hands up and down his perfect chest Tony pulled Ziva's hair down to deepen the kiss and she moaned into his mouth.

Tony put his hands under Ziva's shirt and was reaching for her bra strap when she stopped him. 'Tony I think we need to stop now. I am enjoying this just as much as you but I do not want to do all of this here.' Ziva stated quietly.

Tony nodded, agreeing with what Ziva had said and checked his watch. 'Shit!' he yelled. 'We should have been back at NCIS half an hour ago. Gibbs is going to be so pissed.' Ziva smacked him upside the head and said 'Do not ever scare me by yelling like that again! You are lucky I did not pull my gun on you!'

Tony apologized and stated that they should get back to NCIS. Ziva agreed and convinced Tony to let her drive. The drive back to NCIS that would usually take 30 minutes took 20 because Ziva was driving. When they arrived Tony felt sick and could not walk straight due to dizziness. Ziva laughed and said 'Get used to it my little hairy butt.'

Tony and Ziva got into the elevator and Tony stopped it as they were going up. 'What do you suggest we tell Gibbs?' Tony asked expressing his major concern. 'Tell him the car broke down.' Ziva stated with confidence, as she started the elevator back up.

'DiNozzo! David! Where the hell were you?' Gibbs yelled as Ziva and Tony walked towards him. 'Car broke down boss.' Tony said nervously. Gibbs gave him a suspicious look and then slapped Ziva and Tony upside the head simultaneously. 'What was that for?' Ziva asked, already knowing the answer. 'It was for lying. You should know better.' Gibbs stated.

Gibbs was furious. He had a gut feeling that they were breaking Rule #12. He decided not to say anything because he knew that Ziva and Tony had always had sexual tension and he knew the time would come when they would act on it.
