A/N: So this takes place during a movie night about 3 days after the first chapter.


"Tony?" Ziva asked walking into his apartment. The living room was empty, no Tony. The couch had a few blankets on it and there was a movie set on pause. A pizza and a few beers were scattered on his coffee table. Ziva moved forward, into the hallway. She heard his voice coming from his bedroom.

"Ziva," He said.

Ziva looked through the crack in the door, finding Tony in front of his mirror.

"I love you Ziva." He said to himself. "Noo noo. You should like an idiot DiNozzo. Ziva David, I love you so much... nahh too corny. Ziva, I have loved you for so long and I am...I am... AH I don't know what I am doing. I sound like a total idiot. How hard is it to say three simple words!"

Ziva smiled and tried hard not to chuckle at Tony's monologue to himself.

"Maybe I should go with a simple, I love you then kiss her so she doesn't have time to respond." Tony thought out loud.

Ziva decided it was time to intervene Tony's conversation.

"Or," Ziva said coming into his room. This caused Tony to turn around and his face showed horror.

"Ziva!" Tony said surprisingly. Ziva smiled and walked up to him. She placed her hands on his hips.

"You could just tell me what is in your heart." Ziva said looking up at him.

Tony nervously looked at Ziva then sighed.

"Ziva," He said. "I love you will all my heart, if I could take my heart and physically give it to someone that person would be you. I love you so much that when I cannot feel you near me, I miss you."

Ziva smiled brightly. "See," She said. "Now wasn't that better than you practiced."

Tony leaned down and kissed Ziva. Ziva wrapped her arms around his neck and pulled herself up so that she was on her tippy toes and then she was eye level with him.

"I love you." She whispered against his lips.

"I love you too." Tony smiled kissing her again, this time, more fiercely.
