DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN NCIS

A/N: THIS IS MY FIRST ATTEMPT AT WRITING ON FANFICTION. SORRY IT IS SO SHORT.


The Question With No Answer

"Morning Agent Gibbs" Tony sighed.

Gibbs nodded at Tony and rushed off, barking,

"I've got work to do, and so do you. Get on with it."

Tony waited until he left, then swung back on his chair and stuck his nose into his latest dirty magazine.

Ziva looked over at Tony, unimpressed.

"Tony, you heard Gibbs. Would you get on with your work?!"

She rolled her eyes at him. Gibbs came hurrying back through again, this time with a large cup of Starbucks coffee.

"Get on with your work Tony."

"Sure thing Boss." Tony mumbled.

By the time Tony stuck his eyes up over the top of the magazine Gibbs had departed the room.

He raised an eyebrow at Ziva at the desk opposite him. She was reading over the notes which she took during the interrogation of a suspect. She looked up as if she was in mysterious immense dream. Ziva blinked a few times to wake herself up.

"Who were you dreaming about there, Ziva? A man?"

Tony pulled some flirty faces at Ziva but she only laughed pathetically.

"You really think you're impressing me?"

Tony stood up, and walked over to Ziva's desk.

"Well…?"

At that moment Abby sprung in excitedly interrupting the moment.

"Guess what guys, Guess what!"

"What is it Abby?" Tony and Ziva both recited.

"Where's Gibbs, I need to show him something in the lab."

"Abs I'm right here."

Gibbs appeared around the corner.

"Seriously, the man keeps popping up out of nowhere today." Tony exclaimed.

No.. he does that pretty much all the time. Tony considered.

"What is it you want to show me?" Gibbs asked Abby.

"It's valuable information. Come on Gibbs. To the lab."

They marched off triumphantly.

Tony and Ziva were left alone with only silence.

"So where were we?" Tony asked pretending he didn't remember.

"We were at the part when you attempt to flirt with me and fail miserably."

As Tony slowly backed away Ziva seemed to slip back into her dream.

"I have a question for you Ziva," Tony said serenely and rather suddenly. "How was your life before you joined NCIS?"

There is a long hesitation between them. Then Ziva said uneasily,

"That is the question with no answer."
