Prompt: Ziva under Tony's desk. (by Alidiabin on FFN)
"Ack!" Tony jumps back from his desk. "Damnit."
"What is the matter?" Ziva asks without looking up from her computer.
"Stabbed my leg with something. There's something sticking outta my desk. It's been there for a few days." Tony rubs his leg.
"Let me see." Ziva pushes away from her desk and crosses over to Tony's, crawling under it.
Tony sticks his head under the desk. "You're kidding, right?"
"No, why am I? You have a screw loose."
"What? No I don't!"
"Your desk, Tony. There is a screw loose in your desk."
"Oh. Can you fix it?"
"Yes, I can." Ziva crawls out from under his desk and heads over to hers, taking out a screwdriver from one of her drawers.
"You keep a screwdriver in your desk?" McGee asks in puzzlement, watching her walk back to Tony.
"I keep several," Ziva answers as she ducks back under the desk.
"Why?" McGee mouths at Tony. Tony shrugs.
"I can hear you," Ziva warns from her spot.
Tony sits down and peers at her. "You can hear me shrug?"
"Yes, and I heard McGee ask you why I keep screwdrivers in my desk. I have sensitive ears."
"I bet. Why do you keep screwdrivers in your desk?"
"Done. I-"
"Gear up!" Gibbs barks as he strides into the bullpen. He frowns. "Where's Ziver?"
McGee shoots Tony a look, and for reasons only known to himself, Tony turns slightly red.
"Um…" he begins. "Ahh…"
"I am here, Gibbs." Ziva comes out from under the desk.
Gibbs's eyes narrow. "David, what were you doing under DiNozzo's desk?"
"I was fixing his screw."
"What?"
"My desk, Boss," Tony hastens to clarify. "My desk had a loose screw."
Gibbs rolls his eyes. "Grab your gear. And Ziver, next time get someone from Maintenance to do it. I don't want you under DiNozzo's desk again."
"Yes, Gibbs."
The Gibblets grab their backpacks and follow their leader.
"So why do you have screwdrivers in your desk, again?" Tony asks Ziva.
"They make for good weapons."
McGee shudders. "Seriously Ziva, some days I think you'll kill me while I'm asleep."
She laughs. "Do not worry McGee, I am more likely to kill Tony."
"What?" Tony yelps. "Why?"
"Because I would get satisfaction out of watching you scream like a little girl."
Tony moves to stand closer to Gibbs, and Ziva chuckles happily.
Mmm...yea, okay, this wasn't my favourite. Lol. Sorry Alice! My muse decided to throw a tantrum because I wouldn't give her heart-shaped candy.
I hope you guys liked it, though! As usual, please review, and thanks for reading!
