Ziva kissed Gibbs back. When they broke apart, Gibbs took Ziva's hand and led her out of the bar. Of course he paid for their drinks first. Once they got to her car Gibbs slipped something into Ziva's hand. He kissed her again and walked to his car.

Ziva opened her hand and saw the napkin. It had an address on it. It was the address to Gibbs' house. Ziva got into her car and started it. She turned as if to go to her house. When she was about a block away she turned back to go to Gibbs' house.

Honestly, she didn't know why she was going. She knew she liked her boss. Who wouldn't? His sparkling blue eyes and his sexy smile. Not to mention his toned body. What's not to like? Ziva WAS a woman. She'd noticed these things about Gibbs. Her mind was made up...Rule 12 be damned.

Jethro opened the door to his house and walked in. He hung his jacket up on the hook and tossed his keys in the direction of the coffee table. He hoped Ziva would show. She was a beautiful woman. Her long brown hair. Big brown eyes. Gibbs had noticed these things about her a long time ago. Gibbs also found the fact that she could kick his butt, a turn on.

Gibbs descended the steps to his basement. Gibbs walked over to the work bench and turned on the radio. It was on a country station. Normally Gibbs didn't like this particular station. They played too many happy songs. Right now, they were playing a sad song...about a man missing his lover. It was called..."Miss me Baby" by Chris Cagle.

He picked up the sander and began working the wood. He didn't even hear Ziva come down the stairs. One minute...he was alone...the next her hand was on his shoulder. He felt the light weight on his shoulder and looked down at the woman. Her brown eyes shone with light and lust. Gibbs smirked.

"Wanna learn how to sand?" Without waiting for her refusal or consent. He pulled her in front of him and wrapped his arms around her waist. She settled back against him...Hen put the sander in her hand. His hands closed over hers and began showing her how to work the wood.

He looked down at her and smiled when he saw the look in her eyes. She looked like a kid on Christmas morning. She felt his eyes on her and looked up at him. He leaned down and kissed her lightly on the forehead. She smiled then looked back to the wood.

About two hours and 148 country songs later, Ziva and Gibbs were laying on the couch in his basement. Ziva had her head on his shoulder and Gibbs was playing with her hair. Gibbs heard her breathing even out, and smiled. The woman in his arms was asleep. ..and so was his right arm...

He thought back to the song that had been playing when Ziva had come over...at the moment he'd thought the words symbolized him and Jen...now he realized...he may actually be able to move on from his red-headed boss...

SONG:

Miss me baby

When you hear our favourite song,

Miss me baby

And when you start to sing along

Think about all the times that we danced

In moonlight to it all night long, oh

Then miss me baby.

And want me honey,

Like you did the night you told me that you loved me

We couldn't wait anymore.

Left the keys in the door, took my hand

Pulled me down on the kitchen floor.

Yeah, we were that crazy

Then miss me baby.

Chorus:

Because when he's holding you,

Know that it's killing me,

Let my memory be the reason girl

That you can't sleep

And everytime you feel his touch,

I pray to God it's not enough

And that I've touched your heart so deep

Girl, you can't shake me

Cause I love you,

Yes I need you,

Miss me baby.

Miss me baby,

Until you can't take it no more

Miss me baby

Pack your bags and hit the door

I'm a man, I was wrong, forgive me

Come back home

I'll be waiting

Right here waiting

Miss me baby.

Chorus:

Because when he's holding you,

Know that it's killing me,

Let my memory be the reason girl

That you can't sleep

And everytime you feel his touch,

I pray to God it's not enough

And that I've touched your heart so deep

Girl, you can't shake me

Cause I love you,

Yes I need you,

Miss me baby.

Everytime you hear this song,

Miss me baby...
