Days after the almost war amongst the team during the current case, things had calmed down and returned back to the status quo. They had long days and days that turned into all-nighters. Thankfully today wasn't venturing into the all-nighter fueled by an endless supply of coffee. Before the end of the day came; curiosity was getting the better of a certain agent on the team. Of course his curiosity only gave his wife cause to shake her head.
"So what's everyone doing after work?" Tony asked.
"Stop prying." Ziva commented.
Jenny couldn't help but laugh and Ziva knew exactly why her friend hadn't stifled the laugh.
"Delilah and I were going to see a movie with the twins have plans of their own."
"What are you and Ziva, up to tonight?" Bishop said as she attempted to shift the attention off of her.
It was then that Ziva and Jenny shared a knowing look with each other.
"That's totally up to Ziva."
Ziva knew Tony better than anyone else in the squad room and she could see that the wheels were already turning in Tony's mind. Jenny nudged Ziva a bit since she couldn't bear to watch Bishop and Torres squirm under Tony's prying nature.
"Let's go pick up a pizza for dinner, Tony." Ziva said as she got him to focus on grabbing his gear and coat so they could leave.
"Okay."
When Bishop saw the smile on Jenny's face, she figured out that Jenny and Ziva knew that she and Torres were together.
"Thank-you." Bishop silently mouthed to her successor and Jenny.
Jenny and Ziva just nodded as Bishop left with Torres.
"So what did you want to do?" Bishop asked as she and Torres rode the elevator to the main lobby of the agency.
"I have an idea…"
Bishop saw the cheekiness in Torres' eyes coupled with what he really wanted to do painted all over his face.
"Your place or mine?"
"Wherever you wish, chica?"
"Give me your keys…" Bishop said.
Torres gave Bishop a Are you serious right now look before he tossed his bike keys to Bishop. The two of the straddled Torres' bike as they put on helmets.
"So where are we going?" Torres asked as Bishop started the bike.
"You'll see, be patient."
It wasn't long after they had left NCIS and the Navy Yard that Bishop had delivered them to their intended destination. Bishop led Torres into the building that was standing before them. Another elevator ride and a fast paced walk down a hallway, the couple had arrived at the place they wanted to be at. The apartment door opened quickly and closed soon after they had walked in to the apartment. Backpacks and bike helmet were dropped on the floor. Jackets came off as credentials, badges and guns found their way to the kitchen counter. After that the rest of Bishop and Torres' clothing followed suit as they made their way to the master bedroom of the apartment. The bedroom lights were dimmed very low to the point where they were nearly off.
When they had first started dating, Torres had revealed to Bishop what Ziva had to him when they had helped her with the whole thing with Sahar.
Don't be a wuss. Tell her how you feel.
Tell her how you feel, you wuss.
When Bishop had first heard what Ziva had said to Torres all those years ago, she couldn't help but laugh. Just as Jenny had been a matchmaker of sorts for Tony and Ziva; many years before Bishop and Torres, Ziva was Bishop and Torres' matchmaker.
