Humour/ Romance
T rating
Hi, thanks again for the reviews, keep 'em coming!!! Oh, and a special mention (because I said I would) to Til-san, for the French translation, merci! Lol. As I said last chapter I'm not quite sure what Tony's doing, apart from winding Gibbs up but you know....
I'm not quite sure how this chapter is gonna go down, I haven't a clue what to write about, because for Autumn and Winter I wrote a moment and an event so I'm thinking Easter for spring... Your thoughts would be appreciated!!!
I don't know if there is an Agent Harrison in the show btw...
Summary: Ziva hates American weather and Gibbs tries to show his dear Israeli what good can come out of the four seasons. They grow closer and Ziva realises maybe the American weather isn't that bad, as long as you have an attractive, blue-eyed Marine Sniper by your side.
Chapter Six
'' Why is Agent Harrison dressed as a pink rabbit?'' asked Ziva, looking up from her report. Tony and McGee turned and sure enough Agent Harrison was dressed in a pink rabbit suit with ten kids following him.
'' Oh, God, the NCIS Easter egg hunt.'' said McGee, before letting his head fall onto the table.
'' Haha, that is always a laugh and Boss always manages to get out of it.'' said Tony, before looking Ziva up and down. Ziva's eyes narrowed at Tony.
'' Is Gibbs supposed to dress up then?'' asked Ziva, watching the pink rabbit, totally unaware of Tony's elevator eyes. Gibbs was though, he walked past Tony and head-slapped him, hard. McGee and Ziva looked at Gibbs. A smile quite evident on Ziva's face.
'' You are supposed to dress up like Agent Harrison?'' she asked, her words tinkling with laughter. Gibbs glared at her.
'' The Director knows I wouldn't do it. I don't know why she askes me every year, she knows the answer.'' said Gibbs, still glaring. Ziva's smile fell off of her face.
'' Why?''
'' Because, now drop it David.'' said Gibbs, sending a small wink her way. Ziva shook her head and sat at her desk. Gibbs then turned to glare at Tony, who didn't notice it.
McGee sat down at his desk, feeling the tension between the three. Gibbs was obviously irritated with Tony, but why? He and Abby would have to figure that out. Then there was Tony looking Ziva up and down- what was up with that? Doesn't he know Gibbs would happily kill him? And Boss and Ziva, they really were friendlier, what would Abby say?
'' McGee, go down to Abby and help her out.'' barked Gibbs, sat at his desk. McGee got up and left.
'' Oh, McGee?'' called Ziva, just as he disappeared, he popped his head back around.
'' Yeah?''
'' It is my turn for lunch, what would you like?''
'' You choose.'' said McGee, before he walked off. Gibbs smirked.
'' What would you like Tony?'' asked Ziva, before standing up with her purse. Tony leant forward.
'' Anything, as long as your with it, sweetcheeks.'' said Tony, seductively. Gibbs glared at Tony, while Ziva smiled sweetly.
'' So, that that would be pufferfish from a backstreet restaurant?'' asked Ziva, Gibbs smirked.
'' That's my girl.'' he said to himself. Tony, however, looked horrified.
'' Actually I think I'll skip lunch.'' said Tony, gulping. Ziva shrugged.
'' Ok.'' she said, before walking off, giving Gibbs a wink.
'' DiNozzo, you got a pen handy?'' asked Gibbs.
'' Yeah, why, Boss?'' asked Tony.
'' You need to sign your will.'' said Gibbs, before getting up and stepping into the elevator. Tony paled.
oOoOoOoOoOoOo
'' Seriously Abs, you could cut the tension with a knife.'' said McGee, who had spent the last half an hour explaining the morning events to her. Abby sipped her Caf-Pow thoughtfully.
'' Maybe Tony was right, Timmy.'' McGee nodded in enthusiasm.
'' Remember the New Years Party? Tony kissed Ziva and Boss has been really off with him.'' said McGee. Abby nodded.
'' So Gibbs and Ziva are seeing each other.'' said Abby. McGee sat down heavily.
'' It all fits. Tony has been flirting with Ziva ever since she got back from Israel, Boss' hand practically hasn't left his head.'' said McGee. Abby started jumping, her pig-tails bouncing.
'' What Abby?''
'' What if Ziva didn't go to Israel? What if she stayed with Gibbs?'' said Abby, who began typing on her computer. McGee stood up and behind her.
'' Oh my God! That sneaky Mossad Israeli stayed in America!'' said Abby playfully.
'' Yeah, in Pennsylvania, to be exact.'' said McGee, reading over her shoulder.
'' And who do we know that went to Pennsylvania for a week's holiday?'' asked Abby, rhetorically and smugly.
'' Tony doesn't have to know about this does he?'' asked McGee, Abby shook her head and they hi-fived.
oOoOoOoOoOoOo
'' So, Zee-vah, you doing anything tonight?'' asked Tony, drawing out her name.
'' Why?'' asked Ziva, looking up.
'' 'Cause I was wondering if you'd like to go catch a movie or something.'' said Tony. Ziva frowned.
'' I was not aware that movies needed to be caught, T ony.'' said Ziva, before typing on her computer, desparately wishing Gibbs or McGee were in the bullpen, but McGee was 'helping' Abby and Gibbs was getting his caffeine fix.
'' Oh, you know what I mean, so, I know there is a horror flick, come on Zee-vah, it'll be fun.'' said Tony, pleading. Ziva was really beginning to wish Gibbs was here.
'' Erm...''
'' Say yes, or how about-''
'' Getting on with your work and stop annoying your partner, DiNozzo.'' growled Gibbs, walking into the bullpen with his coffee. Ziva gave a very audible sigh of relief. Walking past Tony, Gibbs headslapped him.
'' Ow!'' said Tony, rubbing his head. Was it him or were his headslaps getting harder?
'' David, go down to the lab and get McGee.'' said Gibbs. Ziva frowned and nodded and did as she was told.
'' Boss, I was jus-''
'' I don't care DiNozzo.'' said Gibbs, sharply. Tony frowned.
oOoOoOoOoOoOo
Ziva walked down near the lab to hear McGee and Abby gossiping about her and Gibbs. Her heart froze, how could they know? They were careful around them, they never let anything slip. She composed herself and walked into the lab.
'' I bet their first time was under his boat.'' joked Abby.
'' Really? I was thinking against the wall.'' replied McGee, smiling.
'' Who?'' said Ziva, walking towards Abby and McGee. They both froze.
'' No-one.'' said both of them quickly. Ziva glared.
'' Really?''
'' Yeah, really.'' said Abby. Ziva shook her head.
'' Gibbs wants you back in the squadroom, McGee.''
'' Right, see you later Abby.'' said McGee, before bustling out of the lab, leaving Abby and Ziva alone.
'' So who were you talking about?'' pressed Ziva. Abby shifted uncomfortably. Ziva took a step closer to Abby.
'' You said boat so I'm going to say Gibbs and because you are not talking to me, I think me. So you were talking about myself and Gibbs together, yes?'' said Ziva.
'' Oh, you got me. Yeah, we were talking about you and Gibbs, but you suit and your so cute together and you complete each other and-''
'' Abby!'' said Ziva, stopping her ranting. Abby looked up at her.
'' Gibbs and I are just friends and colleagues.'' said Ziva, hating herself for lying to her best friend. Abby frowned but nodded.
'' Ok.'' said Abby unhappily. Ziva smiled and walked off. Just before leaving the lab, she said-
'' Besides, I am not a red head.''
oOoOoOoOoOoOo
Later at home, Gibbs and Ziva were lying on their bed, the lamps producing a warm cosy glow. Ziva was resting on Gibbs's bare chest and he was toying with one of her curls. He sighed heavily.
'' What is wrong Jethro?'' asked Ziva.
'' I know it's old, but DiNozzo is going out of his way to annoy me.''
'' Speaking of DiNozzo he keeps asking me out.'' said Ziva, a little heatedly.
'' Yeah, I know. Why do you think I'm pissed with him.''. Silence developed again until Ziva sighed.
'' What's wrong with you Zi?'' Ziva shifted uncomfortably.
'' I had to lie to Abby today.'' she said, guilt apparent in her voice.
'' What about?''
'' Us. I think she and McGee suspect something, I overheard them saying something about our first time.'' said Ziva.
'' Really?''
'' McGee said it was against the wall, while Abby said it was under the boat.''
'' Yeah, I bet they said that.'' said Gibbs, his voice vibrating in his chest,comforting Ziva.
'' I really wanted to say that our first time was actually in your bed, but we are not seeing each other are we?''
'' No, this is just a dream.'' laughed Gibbs. Ziva grinned. She sat up and looked at him.
'' Then it is a good dream.'' she said before kissing him, she pulled away.
'' A very good dream.'' agreed Gibbs,before rolling the pair of them over, so that he was on top. Ziva giggled. He kissed her forehead.
'' And about Abby and McGee, don't worry about it, they'll get over it.... eventually and DiNozzo will get the shock of his life when he finds out I'm the reason that you don't flirt with him anymore.'' grinned Gibbs. Ziva laughed.
'' Oh God, I can just see his face.'' said Ziva, before laughing. Gibbs and Ziva continued kissing and Gibbs slipped her tank top off over her head, leaving her in a bra and hotpants. He kissed her throat before going back to her mouth, they deepened the kiss and were enjoying it until Gibbs' phone rang.
'' Oh, for Christ sake!'' cursed Gibbs, reaching over to the bedside table and picking up his phone and answering it while he was still straddling Ziva.
'' Yeah, Gibbs.''
'' Jethro.''
'' Director.'' Ziva scowled at the mentioned name, Gibbs grinned at her and caressed her face with a calloused finger.
'' Agent Harrison isn't being the Easter Bunny tomorrow.''
'' Good for him.''
'' Which means it's your turn, Jethro.''
'' What? Jen, I told you 'no'.'' growled Gibbs, Ziva reached up and pulled Gibbs down so they were nose to nose. Gibbs grinned.
'' Well, I'm the Director and I say you are.''
'' Don't pull rank on me, Jen.'' warned Gibbs, Ziva lightly kissed his mouth.
'' Tough.'' said Jenny, before hanging up. Gibbs threw the phone across the room before slumping down on Ziva, crushing her.
'' Jethro!'' cried Ziva. He heaved himself up so he was back straddling her hips.
'' What is wrong?'' asked Ziva, holding his hands in her own and caressing them.
'' Promise you won't laugh.''
'' Ok.'' promised Ziva.
'' I'm the Easter Bunny for tomorrow.'' Ziva bit her lip.
'' Like Agent Harrison?'' Gibbs looked at her and glared.
'' Yeah, go ahead and laugh.'' said Gibbs, before glaring again. Ziva spluttered but didn't laugh.
'' I will help you.'' said Ziva, seriously.
'' How are you planning on doing that?'' scoffed Gibbs.
'' You be the Easter Bunny and I will take a trip down to the store and buy some chocolate sauce, some strawberries, maybe some whipped cream and, if you do it without any fuss, I will buy some pineapple rings.'' said Ziva, eyes sparkling with amusement as she was watching and feeling his reaction to her offer.
'' And honeydust?'' asked Gibbs. Ziva grinned.
'' Only if you do not make a fuss and do as you are told.'' said Ziva seductively. Gibbs looked at her.
'' Tomorrow?''
'' Tomorrow.'' promised Ziva.
oOoOoOoOoOoOo
'' Wow! I never imagined Jethro doing that.'' said Ducky up on the banister with Jenny, Tony, McGee, Abby and Ziva watching Gibbs dressed up as the Pink Easter Bunny with a mass of children following him.
'' I wonder why he's doing it?'' asked Tony.
'' Yeah, I wondered that. He was adamant not to.'' said Jenny.
'' Gibbs is good with children, no?'' said Ziva smiling to herself.
'' Yeah but the Pink costume is overkill though.'' said Abby. They all laughed and Gibbs looked up at them and glared.
'' He is the only person I know that could wear a bunny suit and still be scary.'' said McGee grinning. Ziva shook her head and caught Gibbs' eye, they both smiled waiting for the night to come.
Gibbs grinned to himself, being a good boy had its moments, and as soon as that clock struck eight, he was out of their with Ziva.
oOoOoOoOoOoOo
Ziva looked at the alarm clock on her bedside table and groaned, Gibbs looked at her and laughed.
'' I feel like shit.'' swore Ziva. Gibbs rubbed her stomach.
'' That is what Easter is all about Zi.''
'' What?''
'' Stuffing yourself full of sugar and chocolate until you feel sick.'' Ziva laughed.
'' As much as I love you Jethro, I am never eating that much off of you again.'' said Ziva before groaning. Gibbs kissed her and pulled her into a hug. He sighed contently.
'' So... same again next Easter?'' said Gibbs. His only answer was a pillow in the face.
