Author's Note: After last night's episode, I need some comfort.
It was good, don't get me wrong, but it seems like they're trying to kill the show. Gibbs is the mole? What the hell? It baffled me and pissed me off.
Even with that awesome TIVA moment in the elevator (not to mention the McAbby moments throughout), I was still pissed off and the promos for next week didn't make me feel any better.
Nothing cheers me up better than writing so here's another chapter.
It's a TIVA one and I put in a sexual harassment course for the hell of it.
Driven is my favorite episode of them all, other than Under Covers. Besides, I've always wanted to see Tony get her back for The Lick.
On with the show.
Disclaimer: NOT MINE. I DON'T THINK I WANT IT, ANYMORE.
"Here, taste this."
"What are you giving...oh, that is good."
"I'm glad you like it. It's a sample of our wedding cake."
Tony looked at her with hooded eyes as she walked back to her desk.
She was even more tempting to him as time went by. After a fierce night of lovemaking after Probie's wedding, something had shifted in her. She was more feminine and put more effort into being sexy. He thought she could do that just by breathing but he wasn't going to complain.
His gaze raked over her appreciatively, taking in her attire.
She had on a black My Chemical Romance t-shirt, beige khakis, and her feet were bare.
She had gotten the habit from Alex, whom she kept in regular contact with via email.
His sister's band would be down next Saturday to play in some competition and Jenna had a conference the same week. Basically, there was about to be reunion of the DiNozzo women and Tony was kind of dreading it.
He loved his sister and his sister in law dearly but they had a lot of dirt on him.
It wasn't really bad dirt, like a previous wife or a drug addiction but it was stuff he didn't tell Ziva about out of self protection.
They'd tell her and then her paradigm would shift.
He was afraid that she wouldn't want him, anymore.
Normally, Tony wasn't an insecure man but when it came to Ziva, he was worse than a teenager at times.
She was the best thing that had happened to him and he didn't want to fuck it up.
"Tony!"
He blinked and focused on Ziva's concerned face.
"What's the matter?"
"Nothing."
"Anthony, do not lie to me."
She knew him so well.
His resistance melted under her deep sepia gaze.
Besides, he really did want to tell her.
"I'm just nervous. Not about marrying you because I know I want to do that. You're the only woman that can handle me."
"True. What are you nervous about, then?"
"Alex and Jenna are going to tell you stuff... and I'm afraid of how you'll look at me after you know."
She considered that and asked," Was there another..."
"No! God, no!"
The very idea of marrying another woman or even coming close made him feel ill.
"Okay, I had to ask! Have you done anything illegal?"
"Kinda. Back in college, I was pretty stupid."
"Aren't we all? So, was it American Pie illegal orOcean's Eleven illegal?"
He grinned at that.
He had corrupted her into a movie buff.
He was proud of his padawan.
"The first one. I ran the naked mile once."
A look of realization came over her face.
"Is that why there's a bit of a dent in your..."
"Ye-ah. I tried to jump a fence. I missed."
She cracked up and hugged him.
Cupping his face, she brought him to her for a kiss.
Her lips were intoxicating and impossibly sweet.
Pulling away, she smiled.
"I love you. Even if you've done stupid ...and apparently painful things, I still love you. Do not worry about it."
He nodded and kissed her again.
She tasted like frosting.
He'd have to save some of the cake for later.
An image of licking it off her naked breasts came to his mind and she whimpered as he hardened against her stomach.
"Hey, guys? Where are...oh, for the love of..."
Pulling away from her, he gave McGee an annoyed look.
"What? Haven't you ever seen two people go at it? Abby seems to be the type to film that."
He blushed and Tony smirked.
Probie was still easy to rattle.
He recovered and glared slightly at him.
"Look, we have to go the stupid fuck and get fired...I mean, sexual harassment ...course and Gibbs sent me to find you two. He said if he has to suffer so do you."
Tony chuckled.
Okay, maybe he had lightened up a bit.
"Fuck and get fired... very accurate. Mind if I use that?"
"Go right ahead, Ziva."
"Isn't it a little late for this? I mean, you married the Princess of the Darkness. Ziva and I have children and Gibbs is doing the nasty with Jenny. Not to mention Lee and the Autopsy Gremlin.", Tony brought out.
"I still can't believe she's pregnant with his child." Ziva said with an incredulous shake of her head.
"I know! Ewww..."
McGee chuckled and shrugged in a "What are you gonna do?" way.
"I know it's a bit redundant but it's required so come on."
"We'll be along in a moment."
Tony looked at her and found her shaking with silent giggles.
She was obviously remembering the last sexual harassment course.
I am not sitting in front of her, this time. That sneak attack was uncalled for.
You liked it., his brain reminded him.
Yeah, but we weren't together then so it was uncalled for. Now, be quiet.
"You keep your tongue in your mouth, Zee-Vah!" he warned.
"You like it when I lick you!"
"I do, but there is a time and a place. I mean it! You know what you do to me.", he insisted.
"Hmm...I suppose it would defeat the purpose of the course if you bent me over a desk." she mused.
"Exactly."

"Now, would anyone like to show an example of a red light situation?"
Ziva squeaked as Tony pulled her into his lap and devoured her.
All thought exited her mind and she kissed back.
He had on her favorite blue sweater and jeans.
He had it on the first time they had made love.
Also, he had switched his cologne to something spicy, which she really liked.
The hoots and the catcalls were of no consequence as long as he kept kissing her.
Her world abruptly shifted and suddenly she was back in her chair, quivering with lust.
She looked at him and he grinned maniacally.
"This is retribution for the lick, yes?" she asked him wearily.
"I don't know what you're talking about."
Ziva just gave him a pointed look and lightly head slapped him, increasing the laughter of their colleagues.
She slumped into her seat, sulking slightly.
Rat bastard! He's going to do that in front of everyone when he knows I can't do anything?! That hairy assed rat bastard! He is in for it when we get home!
"Is that what you meant, ma'am?" he asked innocently, looking dead into her appalled eyes.
The conservative woman just gaped at him and Ziva nuzzled his shoulder, bringing her out of her shock.
She made an odd squeaking noise and looked at Gibbs.
"Are you going to do anything?!"
"What could I possibly do? It's not like she didn't like it."
A scarlet blush colored her cheeks and she looked at Tony blandly.
"I hate you."
"I love you too, baby."
