NCIS No Infringement intended.
A Tony and Ziva Fic
Tony's musings ...
~In My Life~
"Am I in your life, Ziva?" Of course CIRay picked just that time to call her after 7 weeks of nothing. I had thought and thought … I mean, I really gave some consideration to what EJ said about Ziva and I. I won't kidd you, I had looked at Ziva David as more than an NCIS Agent over the years … just look at her, hell, she's beautiful, but I'm too late … fucken CIRay …
"Tony … Tony … HEY … DINOZZO!"
"Oh … sorry Zeev … what's up?"
"Drinks? We were going out for drinks?"
"What happened with CIRay?"
"Let's go get garbaged and I'll tell you all about it."
She's so damn cute when she butchers the English language. "Trashed, Zeev … we're going to get trashed."
"Trashed … right, good … me and my Tony … trashed."
I found out two things that night … I was in her life and she was in mine. CIRay was going to be on some super secret CIRay mission, God only knows where and he felt that making Ziva wait around for him wasn't fair. I give the guy cudos for that but he shouldn't have strung her along all this time. You could tell when you first met the guy that he gets off on all that super secret bull shit stuff … yeah, somebody has to do it but somebody has to love Ziva David too. I don't have to, I just do. I'm happy to know this before it's too late … it almost was.
We went to Fat Bill's … a favorite watering hole of ours. We sat in a booth in the back and got trashed. Not so trashed that the truth wasn't coming out because we were trashed … just trashed enough that it brought the wall down and let us both open up. We talked all night long about all of my faults … I didn't mind … she was right about me. For the most part our years together I've acted like a Frat boy … I admit that. She told me that she watched and listened and at times were jealous of all the women. There really wasn't that many … okay a few. She thought at times that I was a loss cause but the past couple of years, she noticed a change, jeez … I am in my forties … I have to grow up sometime … in some ways. I called a cab and ended up sleeping on her couch. We shared a sweet goodnight kiss. Just a kiss. As I said, I found out two things that night, I was in her life and she was in mine … we don't have to rush this … if you do what you always did, then you'll get what you always got … I want more with Ziva … I want it all with Ziva … I can wait. Maybe I found out three things that night.
