They Remember, They Want, Then Things Happen

A/N: Well, here we go with the want part. I'm a little bummed, no new NCIS for a few weeks again, but I'm still happy about the Christmas special. Well, here goes nothing.

She Wants-

She wants their friendship to be more. She wants the seemingly meaningless flirting to be meaningful, and she wants them both to openly know it's meaningful.

She wants to put the past in the past, forgetting all the bad things shared between the two. Yet she also wants to never forget it, because what doesn't kill you makes you stronger.

She wants to be able to hug him without it being weird on anyone's means, and without being smacked by Gibbs. She wants to be the one he kisses goodnight every night, and the first one he sees in the morning. She wants to know that they will never leave each other's side again, and that they will forever be together.

She wants to tell him how she really feels, something she should have done three or four years ago. Even though she felt that way about him that long ago, she wants the man he is finally becoming, the one who is kind of goofy, but finally learning how to be mature, not the man she first met, all sexual jokes and no seriousness about him.

She wants her life back, the one she had before the summer, with one major thing added. She wants him, more than she has ever wanted anything or anyone before.

A/N: Alright, alright, before you guys flip out on me and say, oh my God, that's so not Ziva, think about it. We do not know that truly. She acts all strong, but on the inside she is just a woman. With emotions and thoughts just like every other woman.
