A/N: Here's the newest chapter(: Song that inspired this: Come a little closer by: Dierks Bentley. Last update until I get back from the beach!
"I had a wonderful time Tony. Thank you for giving me my first slow dance" Ziva said with a smile. He smiled before leaning closer. Oh god, is he going to kiss her?
"I would kiss you but, that would make things at work a bit complitcated. Especially since tomorrow's Monday." Tony whispered. She felt her cheeks grow hot from a blush. He looked into her eyes. She pulled him closer by the collar of his shirt and closed the gap.
He picked her up and carried her through the door kicking the door closed and proceeded down the hall.
Afterwards, they layed together in a state of beautiful exhaustion. What does this mean? Is it just another one night stand? Will he just leave in the morning and pretend it never happened? His next words proved her thoughts wrong.
"I love you SweetCheeks. I always have. I just…I never told you." He said. She smiled.
"I love you too Tony." Ziva said with a huge smile. She fell asleep with his strong arms protecting her from any harm that could ruin their blissed out world. Her head rested on his chest.
"Gibbs?" Abby asked before he even touched her. He drew his hand back to his side.
"Yeah Abs?" He asked with concern. He really hoped she didn't say they had to end this. The past week has been nothing but, bliss. He loved her. It was as simple as that.
"I love you." She said with a tear rolling down her face. He stared at her. Which only made her feel like she had made a big mistake.
"Your serious?" Gibbs asked raising an eyebrow. She nodded. What if he didn't love her back? What if she not only lost the love of her life but, her boss to.
"I love you to Abs." He admitted pulling her into a hug. She smiled and let a few tears come out.
For the first time for both of them in years….they made love.
"I love you." Bethany whispered before kissing his lips and slipping into her apartment. McGee respected her wish of no sex before marriage. Before the dinner rehearsle he was sure that if they hadn't had to go she would have let him take her right there in his apartment.
He respected her wish because, he loved her. Sure it was hard sometimes but, he had enough self control to wait for her.
McGee picked up the phone and called Ziva. He couldn't wait to ask Bethany. He just knew she would say yes. He smiled at the thought of the tomboy he knew who never did her hair just ran a brush through it, never wore make-up, and rarely dressed up, in a wedding dress.
"David" Ziva answerd out of breath. Why did he have a feeling she wasn't out on a run? He pushed the thought away.
"Plan McBeth in action." He said. He heard someone sigh and the phone line went dead. He really didn't want to know what was going on.
All he knew is that by this time tomorrow he would be engaged. He got nervous just thinking about it.
A few minutes later he heard the familiar ringtone of Beth's coming from inside the apartment.
Phase 1: Get her occupied. – Complete.
He pressed the down button on the elevator. His phone started ringing. "McGee." He said simply into the phone.
"Phase two complete." Tony said before hanging. He was pretty sure he heard some gasp. Again, he pushed the thought out of his head. Now all he had to do was get the ring. That was for tommorow.
"I found it." McGee told Abby pointing at a ring that fit Bethany so well. Abby smiled and got the man who had eyeing her since she walked in.
"Yeah Sugar?" He asked her. She ignored the sugar part and forced a fake smile.
"We need that in a size 5 please. I need it engraved to. On the inside he wants it to say "Your My Gillette." Thanks! Oh and can we have it done by two?" She said with a bubbly voice. She noticed his surprise and she leaned in and said "I'll show you a tattoo you can't see at first glance." She added a wink for good measure. Little did he know it was on her wrist where you check a pulse. It said "LJG." She had gotten just last night. At two am. When she woke up and had to have it done. She called him her heartbeat.
McGee smiled at the engraving. He had called her that when he saw a commercial for a Gillette and it had said "The best a man can get." She had laughed and pecked him on the cheek. He started calling her Gillette after that.
It was 10 am now. The whole team was gathering at one of the most expensive restruants in DC tonight at 6. All he knew was that they were getting in for free. He was so excited it wasn't even funny. Right now Ziva, Gibbs, and Bethany were at some diner eating lunch.
In just 8 hours he would –hopefully- be engaged. Hopefully? He had not doubts she would say yes.
A/N: Let me know what you think(: I might update the next chapter tonight...not sure if I want to yet but, I'm leaning towards it. Please R&R!(:
