"McGee? Do you have a minute?", Tony asked as McGee picked up the phone. He'd decided to call his friend because damn he could really use some advice. And now was the perfect time.

Ziva was at the hospital, visiting Gibbs and had said she'd spend some time with Abby in the afternoon as well. This was his chance. "Sure. What's up?", McGee asked. Tony took a deep breath.

Would it be weird to ask it over the telephone? It probably would. "Can you come over here?", he instead asked. He could picture McGee's confused expression all too well. "Is something wrong?", he immediately asked.

Tony sighed. Why did everyone just assume something was wrong when he asked them to come over or something. He really needed to improve his social life. "I kind of need your help", Tony admitted.

He hated to admit that. He wasn't one to ask for help easily. But this time..well he really needed help. "I'll be there in ten", McGee said and then hung up. Tony put the phone down and looked around the room.

Thank God the stupid surveillance had been hacked by McGee and was now blocked. He'd somehow figured that out just hours after he'd found out they were under surveillance.

That was why he was able to be more open with Ziva too. However, apparently she didn't trust that thing McGee had done because she'd taken him to the beach to tell him important stuff lately.

He did trust McGee's tech magic though. He'd been able to find the cameras and microphones with some sort of software but he had no idea how that worked. It wasn't really his thing.

He knew though that McGee had also been able to use another software to kind of turn the devices off. Tony had no idea how that was supposed to work but he wasn't going to question it.

It wasn't like he needed to know. Everything he needed to know was that it was turned off. End of story. A knock on the door pulled him from his thoughts. He stood up and walked over to answer the door.

McGee was standing in front of it. "That was fast", Tony commented. "Hello to you too, Tony", McGee replied sarcastically and Tony cringed. "Hi McGee", he corrected himself quickly.

He opened the door to McGee and he stepped in. They walked over to the living room and Tony sat down on the armchair, signaling McGee to sit down on the couch.

"What is this about, Tony?", McGee asked after an awkward moment of silence. Tony took a deep breath. "It's about Ziva", he said quietly. McGee's eyes widened at that.

"Did something happen?", he asked, clearly alarmed and worried. Tony quickly shook his head: "No, it's not that." McGee stared at him, urging him to continue. "Quite the opposite actually", Tony said carefully.

McGee furrowed his brows, clearly not understanding what Tony was hinting at. He sighed. "I want to ask her to marry me", Tony declared. McGee's jaw dropped and he stared at Tony, his eyes wide.

"You..what?", he asked, completely taken aback. "I want to marry her. I want to propose and ask her to marry me", Tony repeated. A slow grin spread across McGee's face.

"You have finally come to your senses", he stated, his voice slightly teasing. Tony grinned as well. "Yeah, I guess I have", he said. "So, what can I help you with?", McGee asked after a moment of silence.

Tony leaned forward in his seat. "I want to do it right, make it special, you know. I just..I dunno. I thought I'd ask you as a friend", he started to ramble. "A friend?", McGee repeated, not quite convinced he'd just heard that right.

Coming from Tony after all! "Yes", Tony confirmed, slightly annoyed. This really wasn't important now! He wanted to make this whole thing right. Which implied some help coming from McGee.

Not just stupid rambling from both of them. "I need a place and time and I need Gibbs' approval", Tony concluded. "Gibbs' approval?", McGee repeated, confused.

"Probie! Don't you get it?", Tony asked in disbelieve. How could McGee not understand? He shook his head. "Ziva's father is dead. And Gibbs is the closest thing she has to a father. So, I'm gonna seek his approval", Tony explained.

McGee's eyes widened as understanding dawned on him. "You're gonna do this the traditional way", he concluded softly. "She would want it that way", Tony shrugged. It wasn't that big of a deal to him.

It was something he knew he wanted to do. It seemed only natural to him. "Okay, so what do you want the actual proposal to be like?", McGee then asked. "I'm not sure yet. I need a time first. I don't wanna do this while we're still on the case", Tony replied.

"Yeah about that..", McGee started but trailed off, rubbing his neck awkwardly. "What?", Tony asked. "I know Gibbs told you it will be over soon but..it won't. It just started again. You need to work with Orli again as well", McGee admitted quietly.

He was kind of scared of Tony's reaction. However, he stayed surprisingly calm. "We need to work with Orli again?", he repeated and McGee nodded. Tony nodded in understanding, his business face going up.

"Don't think about that now. What about your proposal?", McGee quickly changed the topic again. Tony sprung back to action and leaned forward again. "You know I had it all planned out back in DC. I wanted to take her on a trip over the summer and at the end of the trip I was gonna propose. I even have the ring", Tony told McGee and his eyes widened.

"Really?", he asked in disbelieve. Sure, he knew how much Ziva meant to Tony but never had he thought he was that committed to her. "Yeah. But then Vance called us and the whole plan flew out the window", Tony said bitterly.

"Do you have the ring with you?", McGee questioned. Tony nodded: "It's my mother's. My dad gave it to me when he was in town at the beginning of the summer."

"That's a wonderful idea", McGee said, smiling at Tony. "You know..I was thinking that maybe when the case is over I could either propose on the beach here or pretend like we're boarding a flight to DC but in reality it's gonna be to somewhere else and I'm gonna propose there", Tony stated.

"Both options sound awesome", McGee assured him. "Do you think it's safe to ask Abby for help? Or would she run to Ziva about it?", Tony asked after a moment. McGee chuckled.

"I think I might find a way to keep her from saying anything. But it would be a good idea to bring her into this", he replied. Tony laughed at that. Suddenly Tony's phone beeped and he picked it up from the table.

"It's a text message from Ziva. She wants me to pick you up and meet Abby and her at the hospital", Tony announced. "Good thing I'm already there", McGee commented, chuckling.

They stood up and made their way outside to the car. Since Ziva had taken their car, the two men took McGee's car. They drove over to the hospital, both wondering what this could be about.
