A/N : Yay! I just got reviews and it made me super happy! To fashiongirl97 and leftmyheartinparis: I'm so glad you liked the last chapter! I've read lots of your stories, and I loved all of them! :D

This is another chapter that I finished editing today and decided to post it anyways.

Enjoy!


"Gibbs, it's Ziva." Said Ziva, entering the basement and walking down the steps slowly.

He didn't say anything. Then suddenly-

"Why did you cheat on Jenny?" demanded Ziva angrily. Gibbs stared at her, shocked. What the hell was she talking about? "Don't give me that shocked face, Gibbs. Jenny told me everything. How could you? She loved you, Gibbs! Why did you go and kiss other women while she was in the damn toilet in France? It's outrageous! She was gone for five minutes, Gibbs. Five damn minutes. And you couldn't keep your lips to yourself-" She was close to shouting.

Realizing what she was talking about, Gibbs laughed. That was a mistake. Ziva glared at him.

"The only reason why I haven't shot you is because I promised Jenny that I wouldn't hurt you." She said furiously. Deciding that she couldn't take anymore, she walked towards the stairs. Gibbs grabbed her arm before she could lift a foot.

"I wasn't cheating on her, Ziva." Said Gibbs quietly. Ziva couldn't believe what he was saying.

"Wasn't cheating?" she repeated incredulously. "She told me when she came back from the bathroom, you were practically biting the woman's face off!"

"It was a mistake!" said Gibbs, desperate for someone to believe him. "I never wanted to hurt Jenny, but an ex of mine just kept on following me! I wanted her to stop. But before I could say anything, she started kissing me! I tried to push her away, Ziva. When I saw her smirk at something behind me, I thought for sure Jenny had caught me-"

"She did."

"-but when I turned around, there wasn't anyone there. I loved Jenny. Really, I did. I couldn't stand losing her. I thought we were okay, but when she left me. With her coat and a letter. On the plane back to the U.S. I never thought she knew about. I blamed her for so long. I guess I have no one to blame now but myself."

"Do you still love Jenny?" asked Ziva.

"If I do, she sure doesn't." said Gibbs.

Ziva sighed exasperatedly and shook her head. Sometimes, men are just idiots.

"Don't you remember what she said in interrogation, Gibbs?" said Ziva. Gibbs shook his head. "She said that she got over the fact that you cheated on her, but she never got over you." She smacked him at the back of his head. He glared at her, but she didn't care. "So stop feeling sorry for yourself and go tell her that it was a mistake and you want her back. She still loves you, Gibbs. Even the blind can see it. And you love her too. I can see it."

She stood up and left without another word.


He had been driving around aimlessly for about an hour. ZIva's words just wouldn't get out of his head. It was toying with his head. His mind was having an internal battle.

You love Jenny, said one voice.

Doesn't mean she loves you, said the other.

I'll talk to her

What if she says no again?

Ziva said she wouldn't, fought his optimistic side.

Do you really trust Ziva?, asked the other voice evilly.

"Yes, I do." he said aloud. He did trust Ziva. With his life.

After all, he thought, why would she should.

He had decided. He was going to see Jenny.

He was drove down the familiar road and parked outside the house. He walked up to the door, took a deep breath and knocked.


Eh, not much of a cliffhanger, but it's the best I can do. Only one more chapter and an epilogue left!

Reviews make me smile non stop like an idiot. :D
