I COULD REALLY USE A FRIEND TO TALK TO
"Could I change her mind?" he was thinking. "Or am I too late?" Tony was trying to get all his thoughts together after a long and hard week at work. Yeah, that was a believable excuse, I guess but the real reason was that Ziva David, his Ziva, was going to marry a guy that he knew was wrong for her. She had been dating Ray Cruz for months now and despite some problems in their relationship, she was still willing to plan a future with the guy.
He knew that being with EJ had been fun but it wasn't anything meaningful. He cared for the girl but the truth was, their relationship hadn't really gone beyond sex. He could actually see a future with Ziva. He could for years. He also knew that he hadn't really been himself at work and that everyone was beginning to see that. He was getting out of his car now and he walked up to the front to lean against it. He didn't know if he was making the right choice but he found himself taking out his cell phone and dialing a number.
"Yeah, it's me. Yeah, I'm ok and I'm not. Are you busy right now? I could really use a friend to talk to. I'm just outside of work a little bit. You'll see my car. Ok, I'll see you in a little bit. Bye." closing his phone now. He just stood there until she got there, about 20 minutes after he had called her. She slowly got out of her car and walked up to Tony. He had a typical smile on his face but Ziva could tell that it wasn't real. That something was bothering him, had been bothering him, and it wasn't getting any better. "Hello, Tony." Tony just took a deep breath before saying what was on his mind.
