Um, seriously? 3 updates in one day? Jeez! I really need a life! Or something to do! Review?
"He's been up there for like twenty minutes, Aaron." Lynn complained, tapping her pen on her desk, "What's taking him so long?"
"You are so falling for our boss." Scott grinned and Aaron just sent him a look as Lynn turned to him.
"I am not. I just find him an attractive human being."
"Nuh-uh." Scott smiled, "You want to sleep with him."
She shrugged and then leant forward in her desk chair, "So what if I do, Scott?" She questioned, "The way that he's built…he would be very good in bed."
"You've studied the way he's built?" Aaron demanded before shaking his head and letting out a breath, "You have spent way too much time fantasizing over sleeping with Tony."
"I do not fantasize over sleeping with Tony!" She protested, and Scott and Aaron just looked at her. She sighed, "Fine. Maybe….occasionally….most of the time I'm fantasizing about him…then there are some moments when I'm not!"
"What, when you're screwing someone else?"
"You talk about me like I'm a playboy bunny!"
Scott and Aaron just shared a look, "Because you sleep with a new guy like every night."
"Do not!"
"Okay, at least six days of the week. Come on, Lynn, we're not blind." Scott said.
"Yeah, you're an attractive woman…" Aaron supplied.
"But come on, Tony?!"
"What about me?" The boss' voice entered the bullpen, and they all sat up straight.
"Tony!" Aaron exclaimed, "We were just saying…"
"How you're going to go home and get packed."
"For what?" Scott asked.
"We're taking a trip. Washington DC. NCIS team needs us." He said as he promptly grabbed his car keys and then left, "I expect to see you three here at 0700h so we can catch our flight. Have a nice night, team!" He called, and everyone else stood up to pack up their gear. Lynn put her backpack on her desk as Aaron finished and walked over to her desk, placing a small wrapper on her desk, "You're gonna need it for this overnight trip we go on with boss. Maybe you'll get lucky." He winked as he exited the squadroom. She looked down at the condom he had placed on her desk. She fumed.
"Just hold on a second…why the hell did you have this?!" She called back.

"Keating, you got anything for me?" Gibbs asked as he walked into the bullpen, McGee behind him. Tim took his seat at his own desk as Keating moved from the fifth one up to the plasma.
"Yeah. Looks like Lindsey Evans took out large amounts of money every month to a guy named Daniel Roberts."
"Run him."
"On it."
"McGee, you get down to Abby's. I'm gonna go have a chat with the director." Gibbs said as he started out of the bullpen.
"What about me, Gibbs?" Ziva called after him, and Gibbs turned his head just slightly but didn't slow his pace.
"Go home. Get some rest. You're gonna need it for tomorrow."
"Why?"
"Oh." He stopped, placing a hand on his chest as he turned, "I didn't tell you?" He asked, feigning surprise. He dropped his hand from his chest, "DiNozzo's coming home tomorrow." He said before he turned back around and headed up the steps. Ziva blinked once, twice, and then turned to McGee.
"McGee is this true?" She questioned, and he nodded his head.
"Every ounce. Our cases are related, Ziva."
And that was when the biggest smile McGee had seen in two months formed on Ziva's face. He couldn't help but smile back.

"Timmy, Timmy, Timmy…." Abby sang as she danced around her lab, "It's so great to see you again!" She smiled as she gladly took the Caf-Pow from Tim's hands.
"Gibbs wants to know if you have anything else." He said.
"Nope. Not yet. He left me practically nothing to work with, I did all I could. Right now I'm trying to determine if there are any fingerprints at all on any of this trash that was found at the crime scene." She sighed, holding up evidence bags and then throwing them back down, "McGee!" She wined, "I feel hopeless!"
"Wanna hear good news?" He questioned, smiling.
"Yes, yes, yes! What? Tell me, tell me!" She jumped up and down.
"Abby, Abby stop. You can jump after I tell you." She nodded and then stopped.
"Spit it out, McGee, jeez!"
"Tony's coming back home." he grinned, "Tomorrow." And that was when she screamed and then bolted out of the lab, eagerly pressing the elevator button multiple times, "Where you going, Abs?" he questioned.
"To celebrate! With Ziva!" She grinned as she jumped into the elevator, the doors closing, "Bye Timmy!" She waved eagerly, and Tim just waved back, once as the elevator doors sealed shut.

At 0800h in the morning, Ziva David waltzed into the bullpen, feeling peachier than ever. She had decided to style her hair that morning, wanting nothing more than for Tony to feel as if he actually deserved her.
"Morning, McGee!" She nearly shouted, chipper today.
"Good morning, Ziva! How are you feeling today?"
"Just great, thank you!"
"Ziver." She turned around to face Gibbs, who was holding two coffee cups. He shoved one towards her, "It's been a while since I've seen that smile." He said, and she just smiled.
"Well Gibbs you know…" He just bent down and kissed her lightly on the side of the head.
"Keep it there." he whispered, "I like it." She just smiled.
"Hey, McGee," He waved a manila folder, "Take this down to Ducky, will ya?"
"I will!" Ziva jumped up, running over to snatch the file as she headed down towards the elevator. McGee and Gibbs just shared a smile.
"It's good to see her happy." he said.
"That it is, McGee. That it is."

"You know, sometimes I wonder just how in the world I manage not to kill you every single day!" Lynn shouted at Aaron who was sitting in back of the car that they rented from the airport. Tony was currently trying to find a place to park, he had made it through security, and he was just trying to find a place. His normal place was taken, which made him angry.
"Well maybe if you weren't such a whore."
"I am not a whore!" She exclaimed.
"You've slept with like every guy I've ever met!" He shouted back.
"I have not!"
"Have too!"
"Have not!" Suddenly Tony slammed on the brakes and turned around to face his two partners.
"Shut the hell up! You are both whores, all right? Get over it! And shut up! I'm trying to find a parking space!" He shouted as he stared to drive again.
"Someone's a little testy today." Lynn mused.
"Yeah, all right, I am? I'm going back to the team that I thought I was faithful to, the team who was faithful in me…the team that I left to go with you idiots! Yeah, I'm a little testy!"
The rest of the car ride was quiet as he managed to find a parking space. They got out of the car and into the elevator without a word. They had signed in, visitor badge's an all, which too way to long in Tony's opinion, and then started up into the elevator again. Once the elevator stopped and they entered into the squadroom, Tony couldn't keep the smile off of his face. As he neared the bullpen, he heard his name being called out by McGee, and Gibbs looked up at him, giving him a smirk. McGee ran over and patted him on the shoulder.
"Tony!" He exclaimed before Tony grinned.
"Probie!" He greeted before he pulled him into a manly hug, patting his back a couple of times before letting of him again, slapping his cheek, "Still the same as ever, I see."
Gibbs approached him next, placing a hand on his shoulder, "It's good to see you back, DiNozzo. Got a tan, I see."
He shrugged and gave a small, closed grin, "You know how I am."
Gibbs smirked back, "It's good to have you back on the team, DiNozzo." He gestured to his desk, "Hasn't been touched." He said as he retreated to his desk. Tony grinned as he went and ran his hand over the wood before he sat down, opening up his drawers to make sure that everything was still there.
"Yeah, she wouldn't let anyone touch it." McGee added. He sighed, "I never though I'd say this, but it's good to have you back."
"It's good to be back, McGoogle!" He grinned, and his team just smiled at each other. Lynn's eyes, which had been fixated on Tony, who was going through his stuff, stopped and then looked up at the rather beautiful foreign woman that was standing at the other side of the bullpen in complete shock.
Gibbs looked up at her and then towards Tony before he cleared his throat, "Uh…DiNozzo?"
"Yeah, boss?" he asked, but he didn't look up.
"DiNozzo." He said again, and this time he looked up, but his eyes never met Gibbs. They moved straight to the women's next to him. He sat up straight.
"Tony?" She asked, almost as if she didn't believe it.
"Ziva." He smiled, and she smiled back.
"Ziva?" Lynn broke the silence, as they just stared at each other, speaking solely with their eyes. Tony broke the gaze and stared at Marilynn Garter, "So this is Ziva?"
"Yes." She nodded, "Ziva David. Tony's partner." She walked towards her desk, and he started towards her, and they both met up in the middle of the bullpen. Suddenly all eyes were on them, "Welcome back." She smiled, whispering the words to him, "It has been a while."
"Yes it has." He whispered back, their bodies just feet apart. The tension was felt by everyone in the room. There was silence, all eyes fixated on them, "It's good to be back." He agreed before the room was silent again. Ziva looked down at her feet and then up at him. He looked around at everything but her.
"Aw, damn it, Tony!" Aaron cried out, "Just freaking kiss her already!"
They immediately jumped and split in opposite directions, Tony heading towards Gibbs desk and Ziva heading towards her own, "So, Gibbs, the case?" He asked, and Gibbs just smirked, knowing fully well what Tony was trying to accomplish as he stood up.
"Ah yes…the case."
