The prompt was "charm." I don't own NCIS.


"Where could it be?" she muttered, walking around the apartment, her eyes frantically searching all over the apartment. Ziva groaned to herself when she entered the living room. She got down on all fours and looked underneath the couch.

After looking underneath the couch to no avail, Ziva got up. She hurried into the bedroom and looked under the bed again. "Where could it possibly be? I just had it twenty minutes ago…" she mumbled to herself.

She searched for about ten minutes before the front door opened and he yelled, "Ziva, I'm home! I got us some Chinese too."

Ziva turned and took a deep breath before walking out of the bedroom and into the living room. "Chinese? Good. I am starving," she said, taking the bag out of Tony's hand and kissing his cheek.

Tony moved into the kitchen and got plates and forks outs for both of them. "So how was your day off?" he asked, looking down at her.

Ziva put the food on the plates for both of them and replied, "I lost my flag of Israel charm."

"Where did you lose it?" Tony asked, looking at her as he ate.

"I do not know, Tony. If I knew then it wouldn't be lost, would it?"

He laughed. "Touché. But what's the big deal? You're an American citizen now," DiNozzo replied.

"My mother gave it to me when I was a small child. She was the one that gave me the bracelet," Ziva said.

"Oh. I'll help you look for it after we eat. It has to be here somewhere," Tony offered.

After eating, the two partners searched the whole apartment for the tiny charm. Tony and Ziva looked everywhere; they looked in all their drawers, in the bathroom, in the living room, and in the kitchen.

Finally, after searching for a half an hour, Tony said, "Ziva, I found it."

She turned and walked over to the dining room table where Tony was standing. "Did you find it? Where was it?" she asked, looking all over the table.

Tony held up the charm and Ziva took it, smiling. "It was right on the ground by the chair," he said, looking down at her.

"Thank you," she replied, kissing his cheek.

"That's not all I found though."

"What do you mean?" she asked, curious.

Tony smirked and then pulled a small box out of his pocket. "Just open this," DiNozzo replied.

Ziva set the Israeli flag charm in the dining room table and then opened the box, grinning when she pulled out an American flag charm. "Oh, Tony, this is perfect. Thank you," she said, smiling up at him.

Tony returned the smile. "Here. Let me put both of them on," he said, taking the Israeli flag charm. He out it on Ziva's bracelet and then took the American flag charm and put it on.

"There. Now your supporting both of your countries," he said with a smile.

Ziva looked at the bracelet and the charms, smiling, and then she glanced up at Tony. "It is perfect. Thank you," she murmured, kissing his lips gently.

Tony kissed her back and held her close. Now Ziva could fully support both of her countries.
