Tony stood in his bedroom and looked at his new bed. Why on earth had he bought it? It wasn't necessary at all. There was too much wasted space.

Within an instant he had at least three arguments against it: First, his bedroom looked a lot smaller with the big bed inside. Second, there was only one space of the mattress really being used and third, it had way too many decorative cushions which needed to be placed in order every morning. At night they lay all over his bedroom so he used to stumble over them when he needed to go to the bathroom.

This bed was good for nothing. Ziva had told him, he would not need it.

Of course ever since she came back from Israel she used to spend a lot of nights with him, but she was right. Whenever they spent the night together they were tangled so close together in their sleep that even in his old bed had been plenty of room left. And making love … it had proven that they didn't need to have a bed for that. There were other places…

Ziva picked up another of the little pillows and threw it carelessly on the bed. "I hate those; they are only going to end up on the floor tonight anyway." She said tossing the finial pillow roughly onto the messy pile. Normally she liked her home neat but he could tell this was much too extravagant for her.

"It's a nice bed." Tony said, trying to convince himself.

She looked at him and back at the bed: "Yeah… it's cozy." She said, looking for good arguments in its favor.

"My old bed was cozy too. But this bed is… big… I mean there is a lot of space and… well…hell what are we going to do with it?"

Ziva smiled: "Your old bed is still in the basement. Maybe your neighbors would want to have this one?" she suggested.

"Good. You go and ask her and I'll get our bed out of the basement."

"Deal."
