Discalmer: I do not nor have I ever own NCIS or these characters (only in my dreams lol)
Well go ahead read and review if youd like =] this is just something I had in my head for awhile and finally decided to write it out. Hope you enjoy and theres more chapters to come
She didnt know what she was doing there. In front of his apartment door. Getting ready to knock on his door. So many thoughts running through her head at that very moment. She had to turn around, run away as fast she could, yet she couldnt move. Not one inch of her could fight the urge to reach out and take that final leap of strength and just knock.
But before she could someone on the other side opened it. She must have looked liked a deer stuck on head lights because his face was just as confused and possibly intrigued at her being there.
"Uh..Ziva, what are you doing here?"
"Me?..uh..I'm not interially sure to be honest"
It was the truth after all. She didn't know what she was doing there. She was driving home when she noticed that the apartments she had stopped at werent her own. And yet she hadnt turned around and gone home but yet gotten out and took the steps to his door.
"Are you ok Zi? Your not hurt are you?"
He said it with such concern that she couldnt help but smile. She could possibly make up some kind of lie and say her car broke down that she needed help getting home or if she could stay with him until help came. But help wasnt coming and her car was fine so what could she say?
"I'm fine Tony do not worry. I merley wanted to see you. Is that a problem?"
Now she was sounding like his girlfriend. Which she wasnt of course yet these past couple of days that's all she's been thinking he was with? What was he doing? Was he thinking of her as well?
"Well this is sort of a bad time Zi, I'm on my way out"
"Oh...I am sorry. I shall go."
She was going to walk rather fast down the hallway when someones hand stopped her in her action.
"No dont, you can come with me? If youd like."
"No Tony, its fine I should get home anyways. I will see you tommrrow at work"
She still wasnt looking at him. As if by simply looking at him she wouldnt be able to stop herself from doing something irrational.
She wanted him to stop her to ask again to join him because she knew shouldnt be able to turn him down a second time.
"Its fine Zi join me, you came here for some reason. So come we can talk, I'm just going to pick up some laundry down stairs"
"Alright Tony."
It was all she could say, and still she wasnt looking at him in the eye. They made their way down stiars and back up with his laundry in mere mintues. And she knew that the time for Tony to ask what was going on with her was going to come. She had to get her story straight and fast.
"So..what brought you here Zi?..You know not that I'm complaining having you suddenly imerge on my door step" Tony said with his DiNozzo smile
"I came...for..." she was fisnishing when she saw Tony take two steps towards her. He was invading her personal space again and this wasnt helping her fight him off inside her.
"You came for what Zee-Vah?" he said with his smiling coming ever so more close to he
"I came here to, what do you Americans call it hang man?"
"Hang out Ziva its called hanging out"
"Things will not be hanging out Tony trust me"
"...Never mind" Tony said while moving past her to the kitchen to rechieve some glass of whine for both
"Come lets sit than" he said waving her to the couch
She should have told him she was leaving right than. But she couldnt resist the urge to just sit next to him and cuddle up on the couch. Knowing that within doing so something would happen between them, and that would be crossing many lines, Gibbs lines.
"Well come on, your not going to keep me waiting all night now are you?" He was having fun now, and she was getting more and more frustrated with herself for not leaving already.
"Tony what do I mean to you?" There she said it, it come out so quickly that it took her longer to process what had just come out of her mouth. Tony on the other hand looked like someone had just sucker punched him.
"What do you mean Zee-Vah?" He was dodging the answer she knew he was because they both knew exactly what she meant.
"You know what I mean Tony, what do I mean to you?. Weve been playing this cat and mouse game for so long that I'm not quite sure I can handle not knowing much longer"
There was silence, neither one saying a word much less moving. Than in a phone ranged in the distance, both to occupied staring at each other didn't hear it until there was also a knock on the door. Both jumped bring them back to reality.
"Im coming, Im coming" Tony yelled from across the room moving past Ziva to see who was knocking.
