A/N: Here is chapter 6. I wrote this a long time ago. I kind of forgot about this story, until someone just asked me to update, so here you go. I searched my computer and found that there are two more chaps, I'll post those within the next few weeks. Enjoy!
At work a few weeks later:
Everyone is sitting around waiting on Gibbs to arrive.
"Why is everyone just standing around? Don't you have any work to do?" Gibbs questions as he gets off the elevator.
"Sorry sir," Mcgee apologizes.
"Don't apologize just get to work."
"Yes sir," McGee agrees.
"Ziva come with me please."
"Ok."
She follows him to the elevator. When the doors close he stops the elevator.
"What did you do that for?" she asks.
"What's going on?"
"On with what?"
"Between you and Tony?"
"Why would you think that something is going on between Tony and I?"
"Because it is."
"What makes you think that?"
"You don't want to slap him every time you see him."
"I've never slapped him."
"No but I can tell that you want to."
"Why does it matter?"
"It matters because if something is going on you need to tell me,"
"Nothing is going on," she lies.
He doesn't really believe her but he pushes the button to start the elevator anyway.
"Where are we going?"
"You're going to take this to Abby," he informs her as he hands her an evidence bag.
"Ok."
"I'm going to the crime scene."
"Don't I get to go?"
"No."
"Why not?"
"Because you lied to me," he tells her as the elevator doors open. "Go."
She walks off the elevator. "You aren't serious are you?"
"Guess you'll see," he says as the doors close.
She huffs, and then turns around to find Abby.
"Abby?" she calls out.
"Huh?"
"Where are you?"
"Down here," Abby says.
Ziva looks around and finds Abby crouched on the floor.
"What are you doing?"
"Nothing. What do you need?"
"I need you to analyze this."
"What is it?" Abby asks.
"I don't know that's why I brought it to you."
Abby opens the bag and swabs the inside. As she does so the smell from the bag begins to flow through the room.
"Trash can!" Ziva blurts out as she turns green.
"In my office by my desk," Abby answers.
Ziva takes off toward Abby's office. When she returns Abby just stares at her.
"Are you ok?" Abby probes.
"I'm fine," she lies.
"You don't look fine," Abby points out. Ziva is now pale and looks like she's going to pass out.
"Abby I don't feel like arguing with you,"
"Ok, but you know if something's wrong you can tell me. I can keep a secret,"
"I appreciate that Abby, but I know you. I would tell you, but I know that if I did Gibbs would use is mind powers over you to get you to tell him,"
"I won't tell him I promise."
"I know you won't."
"So are you going to tell me?"
"No I'm not."
"Why not?"
"Because you have a big mouth Abby."
"If I guess will you tell me?"
"No."
"Why not?"
"Because you'll tell Gibbs."
"Is it something bad? Something Gibbs will get mad at you for?"
"Yeah, probably."
"Like what? Did you accidentally kill someone?"
"No."
"Will you please tell me?"
"No," she smirks as she gets onto the elevator.
Abby pouts for a minute and then has an idea.
Mean while Ziva goes back upstairs.
"Ziva."
"Yes Tony?" she answers trying to pretend that nothing has changed between them.
"The director wants to see you in her office."
"Ok," she nods as she walks toward the director's office.
When she reaches the office she knocks on the door. The voice on the other side tells her to come in.
"You wanted to see me?" Ziva questions.
"Yes. Ziva please take a seat."
"Ok," she complies hesitantly.
"Anything you want to tell me?"
"No, not that I can think of."
"Are you sure?"
"Why?"
"I know."
"You know what?"
"Your little secret."
"What little secret?" Ziva tries to play oblivious.
"I know about your thing for Tony. I've been watching you lately. You seem to have developed a thing for Tony."
"I have?"
"Yeah. Your personal life is none of my business, but I just want to remind you to keep personal affairs separate from work affairs."
"Ok?"
"Ziva keep your relationship with Tony completely unobvious. If you don't Gibbs will find out."
"Who said that I had a relationship with Tony?"
"Nobody, but I can tell. You and Tony have a relationship outside of work don't you?"
"I don't see why you care. You said that my personal life is none of your business."
"It's not. Just do a better job of hiding it."
"Ok," Ziva huffs as she leaves.
