Summary: What if Tony was in a serious relationship throughout the series? What if House was in a serious relationship throughout the series? What if this relationship was with each other?

Pairing: House/Tony established. Implied Cameron/Chase, implied Abby/McGee.

Author's Note: I know I said that House's electroction was next, but I lied. I forgot about this part. The electrocution will be next, though, I promise. This chapter is about how everyone finds out about House and Tony's marriage. Also, at this point in NCIS, I still didn't trust Ziva not to be the director's confidant, which is why she knows nothing about House. Don't worry, she'll be told eventually.

Chapter 10: Going to the Chapel
Chapter Summary: Everyone finds out about Tony's marriage. Gibbs and Tony have a conversation about Ziva.

Background: This is not an episode tag, merely a continuation of House proposing to Tony in the previous chapter. I didn't write the wedding because I wanted you to imagine whatever you wanted. This is a chapter about the teams finding out. January 2006. Season four NCIS. Season three House.


Tony sat at his desk, grinning, "Morning, Zeeva," he greeted.

Ziva looked at him speculatively, "You are different," she stated, standing and walking to him.

Tony nodded, "I had a really good vacation," he admitted. He had no doubt in his mind she would eventually figure it out and had a feeling later would not be better. After all, he had no intention of taking off the ring, so they would know anyway. She just wouldn't know who.

Ziva regarded him carefully, taking in his relaxed state of content. Then she saw his left hand and her jaw dropped open. She reached for it.

Tim walked to his desk, "How was your vacation, Tony?"

"He got married," Ziva whispered in awe, holding Tony's hand in hers, staring at the ring. "Platinum. Nice."

Tim caught Tony's eyes, raising his eyebrows. He'd known Tony and House were serious, had even been one of the few that knew House had proposed, but hadn't a clue they were getting married this soon.

Tony nodded at Tim before looking at Ziva, "Yes," he stated simply, "I got married."

"Did you, DiNozzo?" Gibbs asked as he walked to his desk.

Tony nodded, "Last week," he clarified.

Gibbs gave him a long look before smiling softly, "Good for you," he returned.

Ziva smirked, "We'll have to throw you and your new wife a celebration," she said, grinning.

Tony paled, "Um, well..."

"Ziva," Gibbs interrupted, "Where's your report?" he was flipping through his email, not finding it.

Ziva was sufficiently distracted, walking to Gibbs' desk, "I e-mailed it to you." She caught his look, "I will do so again," she stated, going to her desk.

Tony caught Gibbs eye, 'Thank you,' he mouthed.

Gibbs nodded his welcome.


Foreman dropped into a chair at the table Cameron and Chase were sitting at in the hospital cafeteria. "House has been a good mood ever since he got back," he muttered. "It's unnerving."

Cameron shrugged, "He's been on vacation for a week. If that doesn't put him in a good mood, I don't know what will."

Chase looked at Foreman while Cameron was focused on her food. He held up his left hand, pointing to his ring finger, mouthing, 'Ring' to the other man.

Foreman raised his eyebrows, confused. 'Cameron? You?' he mouthed back, gesturing discreetly to the woman next to him. He assumed Chase meant he was buying Cameron a ring.

Chase shook his head frantically, 'House.'

Foreman shook his head. "No way." In his complete shock, he didn't realize he'd spoken aloud.

Cameron looked up, "What?"

"Saw it myself," Chase informed him.

"No way," Foreman repeated, completely ignoring Cameron.

Cameron frowned at them, "What are you guys talking about?"

Foreman was looking around, spotting House sitting with Wilson at a nearby table. He caught a glimpse of House's left hand and turned back to face Chase. "I don't believe it."

"Don't believe what?" Cameron turned to follow his gaze. She frowned, "It's just House. What's the big..." she cut herself off, "Is he wearing a wedding ring?" She turned back to face the two men.


"How will you explain this to the Director," Gibbs asked nonchalantly while they were walking around the park, looking for their suspect. Tim and Ziva were following up on another lead.

Tony shot him a questioning look.

Gibbs smiled, "I know the reason you haven't told Ziva is because you don't want the Director to find out, so what are you going to do? There's paperwork. Next of kin. Emergency contact. Life Insurance. Pension. Those types of things."

Tony smiled at Gibbs' concern, "That paperwork already has Greg's name on it," he admitted.

Gibbs raised his eyebrows, "It does?"

Tony nodded, "When I first started at NCIS, I didn't really have any friends or family, so I...I put your name for all those things. Morrow told me he would let it slide, but that I needed to find someone I didn't work with to put. I told him I would take care of it."

Gibbs was shocked, "You put my name?"

Tony shrugged, "Didn't know who else to put. It wasn't until two months after Greg and I met that Morrow called me into his office. He wasn't happy that I'd neglected to do what I'd told him I would. He said having you listed would do no good. I needed a different emergency contact. And I needed to pick a life insurance beneficiary. I put Greg. Didn't have anyone else to put. Figured I'd just change it if Greg and I broke up."

Gibbs nodded, and they walked in silence for a few minutes, looking for their suspect. Then Gibbs spoke again, "I don't think Ziva would tell the director, you know? If you told her."

Tony nodded, "I've been thinking about that," he admitted, "but I don't think I'm ready to take that chance."

House electrocution really is next, I promise...
