"Tony, what are you doing with your lamp?"

"What am I doing with my lamp? I'm about to hit you over the head with it, that's what!"

"Why would you do that?" The look on the intruders face told him they were not joking; they really had no idea what was wrong. "Well its 01:30 am, Ziva. And you broke into my house! I needed a weapon! How was I meant to know it was you in my front room?" She snorted with laughter, attempting to cover her laugh with her hand. Unfortunately she couldn't stop herself from raising her eyebrows. "You didn't really think you had a chance against me with a bedside lamp, did you Tony? Why didn't you get your gun?"

"Because I left it in here, that's why I have the lamp! Look, let's just skip the whole bedside lamp thing, okay? What are you doing here, Ziva?"

"Because. Well, I'm worried about you. I am you're partner, it is my job to have your back, yes?" The Israeli casually sauntered towards his couch, not making eye contact. She did look up, however, when Tony let out a sigh. "Ziva, I'm fine. Why wouldn't I be?"

"Because of a certain women called Wendy. She called, asking how you were. I have no idea how she got my number though. I then saw her with male friend while out shopping today. I put two and two together and thought maybe you needed someone. I didn't mean to intrude," Tony scoffed at this, which earned him a very icy glare, "but you are my friend. I wanted to make sure you were okay." While Ziva had been explaining, Tony had taken a seat and buried his face in his hands. He really didn't plan on ever telling Ziva what happened, but she was in her super-nice-ninja mood, and when she was like this, he loved her even more. Woah. Did he just associate the L word about Ziva? He didn't mean it like that though, did he? She's just a friend. A close friend who was always there for him. She was just so...

"You there, Tony? Or am I just talking to a stone wall?"

"Its brick wall, Ziva. And no, no you're not. I'm sorry I just. I don't understand what happened."

"She took advantage of the opportunity, Tony. She obviously didn't realise how quickly she would fall for you again and got scared. And once again she has regretted it. Don't go back to her, Tony. You could do so much better."

Tony was finding this all so...surreal. She normally ripped him apart about how he treated women, he was expecting a full on 'you got what you deserved' speech. But the way she spoke, the way her hand rested on his, he knew she was being deadly serious. And he was so touched by this. It was times like these when he realised how much he really appreciated the team.

"Thanks, sweet cheeks. That means a lot, believe me." The smile she gave him just melted his heart.

"Tony, don't be scared to come to me when you feel lost."

"I won't, Ziva," he murmured into hair as he gave her a light peck on the top of her head, "I hope you realise you can come to me as well you know."At this point, Tony had put his arm around her, and they were sat, I guess you could say like a couple. And Tony liked it. It felt right. And, damn her hair smelled good. If he was honest, it was taking a lot of his strength to stop himself from taking this further. But for all he knew, this could just be a rebound thing, and he couldn't risk losing what he had with Ziva.

"You know what I miss Tony?"

"What?"

"Our movie nights. Let's start them again. I think we need them."

"Good idea. My place or yours?"

"Well, we're both here now, so mine, if that's okay with you?"

"Sure is, Zee-vah."

As the conversation carried on, their speech got slower and reactions were almost non-existent. They both, however, didn't want to fall asleep, so resulted in playing silly word games in an attempt to wake up.

It wasn't until the alarm that they realised they had fallen asleep, and were probably going to be late for work. It was going to be fun explaining this to Gibbs.

...

So, yeah, this isn't gonna stay a two-shot. I wanna have all the team helping Tony in some way. Reviews if possible will be helpful? I fear I rambled a bit on this one haha!
