-TONYS CAR-

Back in Tony's car, Ziva was actually surprised that they McGee had slept for so long. But of course, all good things must come to an end. "Tony!" McGee exclaimed. Oh, great. Here it comes, bet he needs the restroom, Ziva thought. Tony rolled his eyes. "What?'' he asked."Could you pull over at the next service station? Answered McGee, ''I need to go take a leak.'' Tony and Ziva burst out laughing; they must have been thinking the same thing. ''What's so funny? Stop that!'' McGee asked in an annoyed tone. "It's not my fault that this is so funny", Tony said. Ziva nodded in agreement. "It's hilarious!" she exclaimed."Well could you two please keep it down? I really gotta go", Tim pleaded. "No!" Tony answered when he finally calmed down. Ziva looked at McGee. "Please, Zi?" he asked. Ziva sighed. "Fine", she said. McGee smiled triumphantly and then resumed looking out of the window. "We're near a station I think", Tony said after he'd had enough of seeing McGee squirm in his seat. "Why'd you just give in like that?" he asked Ziva who was smiling to herself. "Because he asked politely... and I guess I could use a stretch." Ziva answered. Tony shook his head in disbelief. Tony was about to say something else but his phone started ringing. "DiNozzo", he answered. "Hey Tony, its Abby", Abby said. "Oh hey! How are things going in your car? Is Gibbs being a silent mute?" Tony asked. "Not really, we are listening to music on the radio", She replied with a chuckle. He laughed "Yeah. So, how are things going with you guys?" She asked. "It was going good but then McGee decided he needed the toilet so Ziva and I teased him, and...'' Tony began when Abby cut him off. ''Ya know, I think there's something between you two.'' Abby stated, Tony looked over at Ziva and replied ''I don't know what you mean Abs,'' he chuckled.

Zivas jaw dropped. "Does she know!" she whispered quiet enough so McGee didn't overhear. He was listening to Abby and not paying attention to Ziva or McGee. Tony blushed and Ziva noticed that and she asked, "Does she?" This time a little louder. Tony made a disgusted face. "No way!" he exclaimed but Abby could tell that she was lying. Abby laughed. "And he is in denial", she told him. Ziva frowned. "I'll see you later Abby we are just stopping so McSmallBlader can go to the toilet, shouldn't be long now right", Tony said. He noticed McGee glared at him."Yeah ok, tell them all I said hey and nice nickname DiNozzo", Abby said. Tony laughed. "Haha. Okay. I'll talk to you later", he said and then hung up... ''Hurry up McGottaGo we gotta go somewhere too, don't want to get Gibbs mad!'' Tony shouted after McGee as he got out of the car, Ziva groaned.


-STELLA AND MACS CARS-

20 minutes later they pulled into the next gas station and switched cars, luckily Flack, Danny, Lindsay, Payton, Sheldon and Adam were still asleep. Mac and Stella set off again with only 1 hour and 30 minutes left he hoped they'd sleep longer, but he was unfortunate. Danny was the first to awake; he did not notice his boss was now driving the car. Instead he looked at Lindsay who looked peaceful with her head resting on his chest. He slowly raised his index finger and poked her nose, causing her to rub it with her hand and stretch -In the limited space they had it was hard- before finally opening her eyes. ''Hey Montana,'' Danny whispered groggily. ''Morning Danny,'' Lindsay yawned, then slowly sat up straight. ''Flack wake up!'' Danny jabbed his best friend in the ribs, repeatedly until he finally answered, ''Ok, ok I'm awake Stel how longs left?'' Flack enquired. Mac smirked at how stupid they were, New York's Finest he thought with a grin before finally answering. ''Morning my Sleeping Beauties, Flack about an hour.'' He looked in the rear view mirror at his gob smacked staff members. Lindsay, Danny and Flack blinked frantically in silence staring at each other then their boss.

Things in Stella's new car seemed but more care-free then in her old SUV. Payton woke first followed swiftly by Adam and then Sheldon. ''Morning Stel, I presumed something like this would happen. Come on guys you owe me twenty bucks.'' Said Payton to the other two CSI's with her crisp British accent. ''No getting anything past you eh, pay up'' Stella agreed. The two women spent the remaining time of the journey talking about what they think will be install for them. Adam and Sheldon suspected Payton and Stella had already spoke about the swap before, those two were not happy that they had lost a bet with Payton. They drove past a sign directing them to which forest route they'd be taking to get to the reception. Flack let out a sigh of relief when he saw it. Mac drove much faster than Stella. Lindsay and Danny were talking about their parents weddings. ''Please, who really likes weddings anyway...'' Danny finally stated, to Lindsay's disbelief she cocked her head to an angle and stared at him. '' I suppose I agree, whets good about them?'' ''What's not? The weird uncles making inappropriate toasts,'' Lindsay giggled, ''Cheap wine...'' she breathed. ''Children running about the place, rental tux's'' he explained. ''The cake, bouquet, reception...'' Lindsay read off like it was a list until they both said ''The fittings'' at the same time. Lindsay laughed more, ''Not even to the actual ceremony yet...'' Danny rolled his eyes before continuing ''The vows...'' his tone a little happier as if he was considering it. ''Hmm... The ring.'' She agreed. ''The kiss...'' Danny breathed Lindsay looked up at him, her beautiful brown doe eyes glittered in the sunshine. ''Yo, Dano. Stop planning your wedding we are here'' Flack yelled in excitement. They broke their stare at the same time and Mac pulled over next to Stella's SUV. ''Right, I'll go check us in with Stella, anyone need the restroom go now because i expect we will be very busy soon.'' Mac barked as he got out of his car, loud enough for the others stood leaning against the other car could hear. ''Where actually are we, i mean what state'' Lindsay asked. '' Somewhere in the wild Monroe.'' Flack said with a slight sense of adventure in his eyes.


-BACK WITH TEAM GIBBS-

With an hour left in the journey McGee and Abby had been on their cells talking about what they will be doing on this trip. Gibbs was driving silently thinking about Jenny's death, his eyes started filling with tears but he wiped them away before they could fall. Tony was talking to Ziva about her father and what if scenarios ''what if your father called you and asked you to go back to Mossad, would you?'' Tony questioned her; Ziva cocked her head to one side. ''Are you referring to my loyalty Tony? And no, this is my home now. I am NCIS not Mossad.'' She replied with a sharp tone. ''No, it's only a 'what if' Ziva. You ask me something ok?'' He answered. ''Hmm... Ok,'' she thought for a minute. Upon remembering Jenny's death she decided to ask him about his feelings, ''Jenny died alone yes? What was Jenny to you, I mean Gibbs is like the father I never had, McGee and Abby are like my brother and sister what was Jenny to you?'' Bullets could not have hit him harder; he paused while he thought about her question before he answered. ''Jenny was like a mother, I guess. It was hard when she died.'' They sat in silence for a while, apart from the occasional comment from McGee who was still talking to Abby. Tony finally broke the silence after thinking more about what she felt the team was to her, ''Zee-vah you did not say who I was to you, I mean McGee and Abby as siblings and Gibbs as a father figure but who am I?'' He questioned her as he winked at her. ''You Tony are different, you are not family but at the same time you are. You're not like a relative but a close personal friend.'' She chose her words carefully not to give away to McGee that they were dating secretly, afraid of what Gibbs would do if he found out they had broken Rule 12. Tony saw a sign for the campsite they were going to, ''finally, we are almost there,'' Ziva exclaimed with a sigh of relief. They pulled into the car park and saw Gibbs and Abby leaning on their car. Tony stepped out of the car and took a look around. He wondered what they were going to be doing here in the first place. Gibbs was reading the paper and had a cup in his hand obviously full of coffee. He made his way over to the older man and young Goth with his duffel bag in his hand. Ziva and McGee followed him over to Gibbs and Abby. ''I've already checked us in; it seems Vance has booked us 3 Cabins. Abby and Ziva in one, McGee and Tony you can have the other, I'll have one to myself.'' Gibbs explained as he gave Tony the directions to the Cabins. They all got back into their cars and drove off down the winding forest road.

A/N So Tony and Ziva are secretly dating, will they be able to keep it a secret for much longer with McAbby on the case and Gibbs on the scene? Aw Danny and Lindsay talking about weddings, kind of fluffy but you gotta love Flack. Hope its not too out of character... REVIEWS PLEASE x
