Summary: Tony's looking SHARP. Ziva knows why.
That morning, Tony had no problem picking out a tie. In fact, he'd jumped out of bed, showered, shaved and hustled into his favorite suit, whistling all the while. He'd walked jauntily to his favorite coffee shop, ordered his usual and flashed the clerk a dazzling smile.
Arriving at the office, Tony took his seat at his desk and greeted McGee with a grin and an uncharacteristically hearty hello. McGee stared at him, unsure of what to think. This wasn't the usual Tony who showed up at NCIS each workday. Gibbs, too, viewed Tony curiously when he stalked into the Bullpen area later. His young agent wasn't acting like himself at all. Whatever was going on with DiNozzo today, Gibbs thought to himself, he better get it under control.
At last, Ziva quietly entered the office.
As she made her way to her desk, she glanced over at Tony. He returned the look, his broad smile turning into a sly, knowing grin that Ziva met with one of her trademark smirks. Their eyes locked; neither wanted to look away.
"Nice tie," Ziva said, taking her seat. She winked in Tony's direction. He rose from his chair, sidling over to Ziva's desk so that he could lean right over her shoulder.
"Thanks for helping me pick it out..." Tony replied huskily into her ear, "... last night," he added. Quickly, so that nobody else would see, Tony gave Ziva a sudden, hot kiss on her cheek. Then he skipped back over to his desk and hurriedly pretended to look through a folder as Gibbs passed by.
With their boss safely out of sight, Tony and Ziva offered each other one last sultry look before starting on the day's work.
In a few seconds, Ziva saw that she had an email — from Tony. The subject line read "Plans tonight?" Rolling her eyes playfully, she opened it, read it and licked her teeth with her tongue. Then she tapped away at her keyboard in answer.
When Tony opened Ziva's message, which read simply "Yes, I will help you choose another... tie," he smiled, snickered, raised an eyebrow as he studied Ziva's lovely features and eagerly began planning his wardrobe for the next day.
