Hello Readers! This is my first story of my favorite subject! Tiva on NCIS! If you have any thoughts, just post! But please be nice! I'm new at this! :)


Chapter 1

"Ziva, what's wrong?" said Tony running over to her. But he got no answer, just more crying. It wasn't like Ziva to not respond to his calling (let alone cry about anything). "Ziva, what

happened?" Tony said again, sliding his arms around Ziva's waist. She was still sobbing when she managed, "My (*hiccup*) f-f-fath-father's dead, Tony." She kept crying, and Tony held

her tightly. There was a few minutes of silence, before Tony finally broke it. "Z, what happened?" he tried. When she didn't say anything, he tried again. "Ziva, what happened to Eli?" he

asked slowly. "There was a shooting be-(*hiccup*)-tween Mossad officers. My father tried (*hiccup*) to break it up. But he was hit in the (*hiccup*) fight." Ziva said between sobs. Tony

had history with Eli David (some of it not the best). But since she was his girlfriend and coworker, this REALLY mattered to him. Tony kissed her cheeks, which broke a small smile from

her. "I'm sorry Ziva." he said sympathetically. She leaned into his chest, and Tony's grip tightened around her. Ziva was really happy that he was there with her, and she loved having

Tony there when she was in trouble. "Ziva, you gonna be okay today? Or are you call in sick?" asked Tony. Gibbs didn't know that they were dating, so they had some fresh news for a

cover. "No, Tony. Thank you." she replied. "Are you sure?" Tony pushed. A few seconds of silence passed before she said, "Yes. I am sure." She wiped her tears, and sniffled. Tony noticed

Ziva's jacket, which was a favorite of his. "You don't look very happy when you're tear-stained." he said gently. She stopped crying, letting Tony dry her tears and push back her bangs.

"You'll always be safe with me though, Ziva." said Tony comfortingly. Then he pulled her closer, and whispered in her ear. "Always, Ziva." Ziva knew where this was going, and she was

going to object. The couple kissed in a passionate embrace. After about one minute, she was dizzy and realized that she had to go. "Tony," Ziva gasped. "Gibbs' is wating for us." shenot

broke the the truth, immediately regretting it. But Tony wasn't done. "How about we blow off work today and spend the day at your apartment?" he suggested, still wanting more. "No

Tony. I told Gibbs that I'd be there to help with some case progress." she explained. "Need a ride? My car's here already." Tony offered. Ziva hesitated to even move, but she took Tony's

hand and he lead her to the car. They rode in silence to the Navy yard, but Tony held her hand in the car. "You'll be okay? At work" he asked one more again. She nodded in return, and

he gave her a soft squeeze on the hand as they walked inside.
