A/N: I know that this is really short, because it was supposed to be part of Chapter 6! But I moved the Ducky part to Chapter 7, and this became it's own chapter! I hope you like it! It's a small, short Tiva scene (which was why it got its own chapter)! Enjoy!

Chapter 8

Ziva saw Tony walk into the men's room. She wanted to know his opinion. As usual, she followed him.

Tony saw her open the door. He turned around. "You okay?" he asked.

"I am fine," she replied with no emotions showing besides soberness. After a few moments of silence, Ziva spoke again. "Do you want to take the Mossad case?" I do not blame you if you say no though."

I don't know Z. It doesn't seem right to solve a case that's not our jurisdiction," Tony explained.

"Tony, knowing you, that is not your reason. You have taken more than one case that was not NCIS'."

"Ziva, Israel and I don't mix Last time I went to Israel, I was being accused of murder. And we almost lost you. I don't really want to take the case. But if you want to, then I'll definitely go."

Ziva looked into Tony's eyes. Then she looked at the sink, and said, "I don't know if I can handle going."

"Ziva, you can handle anything. I've seen you," Tony said comfortingly.

Ziva smiled slightly. "Thank you for picking me up earlier. If you hadn't, I probably wouldn't have come in today."

"No problem." Tony tilted Ziva's chin up. "It's gonna be okay, Ziva. We'll get through the pain. We always do."

Ziva stared into Tony's bright green eyes. His eyes were always comforting to her. Even when she was in Somalia, she was slightly happy to see his eyes, even through all of the anger. The way they sparkled when he laughed, or looked deeper when he was being serious.

Tony stared into Ziva's deep brown eyes. He loved the ways that they were somber, but still sparked with life through it. If she was laughing and joking around, they would shine brightly. Tony knew that they were at work, but he couldn't help himself. He put his hand behind her ear, pulled her close, and kissed her lips. The kiss lasted for what seemed like hours, but was only a few seconds.

After they pulled apart, Ziva whispered in Tony's ear, "Thank you." Then she kissed him on the cheek, smiled sweetly, and left the bathroom.

Tony just smiled back, leaned back against the sink, and watched her leave.
