A/N: OK so this is a long shot, I know but this idea just came to me and wouldn't go away, so here goes. Each chapter is going to be a different persons interpretation of said rumor. In advance thanks for reading :) Oh and I know this one is short, but there is not dialogue, so it does look a little shorter than normal, but rest assured the other chapters will be much longer, this is just kind of a prologue.

Tony and Ziva, Ziva and Tony, no matter which way around you said it after the first two words came out of your mouth everyone knew instantly what the third would be. They were partners, like jelly was to peanut butter, like cheese to macaroni. You'd see them striding into the office from the elevator, side by side, steps in complete synchronization. Or you'd see them stood in front of the plasma shoulder to shoulder, bouncing ideas off of one another. Of course they had their days when the tension would be slightly thicker. You'd hear the quiet insults and the empty threats. But you could always guarantee that the next morning they'd be back in the bullpen bright and early, light teasing banter radiating from the two of them as you walked by. However, what the agents who walked into the office one July morning were greeted with was not what they expected.
It was a sunny Wednesday morning that the other agents noticed the change. Walking past the divide between Agents Gibbs team's work area and the rest of the office many felt the wave of tension hit them full force. You didn't even need to look up to see something was wrong. You could hear it in the tone of voice Gibbs used when talking to his team, and the quiet stutter that Agent McGee had every time he answered a question that was barked in his general direction, but most of all you could hear it in the sheer silence that was coming from Agent DiNozzo and Officer David's desks. Even when the two were in some sort of deep-seated pissing match you could still hear the bickering, and the quiet snickers each gave when they one upped the other. But no today there was silence. When, and if you dared glance over towards the teams area you could see Agent DiNozzo glaring at his computer screen, teeth gritted and mouth slightly moving as if her were muttering some sort of mantra under his breath. You could see Officer David's head of curly brown hair bent down, intently working on filling in a seemingly crucial piece of paperwork. And if you dared to watch for a little longer, you could see that not once would either agent's gaze flick over towards the other like it often did.
So that was how it started, one morning of tension that you could slice with a knife, or what Officer David could probably slice with a toothpick, and you got a rumor. A big fat juicy rumor, which, every time told it would become a little more daring, or intriguing.
Agent DiNozzo and Officer David had done the dirty.
