A.N: Sorry again, but it is a short chapter. This is mainly just a filler chapter and is all my time and energy levels will allow me to do so far (Sorry!) Thanks SOOOOOO MUCH! For the reviews! I was sooo close to getting 14 reviews for the last chapter except my friends computer died when sending her review... so I am counting it as 13 and 1/2 :P YAY! Would love to see more reviews this chapter! Anyway... here we go!

"Come on Ziva, stay with me!" He sat on the edge of the bed with a hand on her cheek as she groaned. She was barely conscious and her breathing was coming in gasps as she tried to get oxygen. He had no idea what possibly could be wrong, so he sat there helpless, waiting for the paramedics to arrive. He held her hand in his as she gripped it tightly, trying to ignore the pain. "Stay with me…" He whispered to her before his head snapped up by a knock at the door.

"Yeah come in" Tony yelled, standing back as the paramedics rushed to work on her. He couldn't believe what was happening and his emotions were running high from the lack of sleep, he watched helplessly as the paramedics assessed her and answered the questions being fired at him by the paramedic.

"Did she take any of these?" He held up the packet of painkillers Tony had bought for her earlier on.

"Yeah…" He looked concerned as he thought that they may be the cause of all this. "She had them about… an hour ago, for a migraine."

"We need to get her to the hospital." The medic said to no one in particular as he put her on oxygen. Tony noticed that she seemed to be completely unconscious as the paramedics lifted her onto the stretcher and they all rushed out of the room towards the lift. He stood nervously in the corner of the elevator as it went down through the floors, his eyes never leaving her red, swollen face. The doors finally opened onto the ground floor and he looked up to see a completely stunned Ryan, his mouth agape as he stared at Ziva.

"What… What happened?" He didn't even attempt to hide his shocked look; he left her there, on the ground, but never expected this.

"I'm not sure yet." Tony said as he followed the medics leaving Ryan standing near the elevator doors by himself. He watched as they walked away a bit before Tony turned around and ran back towards him. "Can you please call the others and tell them to meet us at the hospital. They don't know anything yet." He patted him on the arm before running to catch up to the medics who had just exited the hotel. He had to get to the hospital. He had to talk to her before she said anything; he couldn't afford to lose this position, not now…

Tony sat in the back of the ambulance with his head rested back on the wall. He had no idea what was happening to his partner and every time he asked the paramedics he would receive the same answer "We won't be sure until we run some tests." She had been unconscious for about 10 minutes now and with every minute past he became more and more worried. He was getting pissed at the paramedics who also kept telling him "Sir, she will be fine", trying to calm him down. He looked down at her, her face holding no expression, and he looked at her swollen lips. He remembered how he found her on the ground in the earlier hours of this morning, how his heart almost leapt out of his chest in panic. He also remembered kissing her on the temple before going to sleep for the short hour he got, his lips still tingling as he fell asleep. He thought back to yesterday afternoon, yelling at her for no reason; he realised something through all of this. He loved her. He yelled at her through frustration that he may lose her. His heart leapt out of his chest because he feared the worse and his lips tingled as if an electric current was running through him because he longed to kiss her again. He now looked down at her, afraid of what was to come, afraid of losing her, afraid of what was wrong, because… He loved her; but he knew he wouldn't tell her. Not with everything that had happened in their past and not with Gibbs rule number 12 haunting him. He would just have to show her that he cared and see what happened, maybe… just maybe one day, it will be different.

"Tony…" She slurred as she opened her eyes to look at him. He had been too deep in thought that he hadn't noticed she woke up and was looking up at him confused by her surroundings. "Where am I?"

"Ziva, we are on the way to the hospital, you blacked out. How are you feeling?"

"My, head hurts… and it is so cold…" She shivered as she looked down to see there was nothing covering her and she only had her shorts and shirt on.

"Can she have a blanket? She is freezing." Tony snapped at the paramedic who was shocked by the sudden change in his tone.

"She has a very high fever; we need to keep her temperature down. Sorry." Tony took her hand in his as he whipped away the hair that was stuck to her flushed cheeks. She looked around distressed as she tried to keep herself calm, he noticed that she was starting to freak out and squeezed her hand a little tighter, not wanting her to pull away.

"Tony… What happened to me?" She looked down to the red rashes on her arms and then back up to Tony's face.

"You had a migraine remember? You were drinking last night and then… later you got a bad migraine and I was with you; remember?" She looked up at the roof and closed her eyes slowly trying to process her thoughts. After a while she slowly looked back at him and slowly shook her head.

"Last thing I remember is… Us fighting about me going swimming." Her eyebrows peaked as she wondered how much she had missed. Tony said he was with her so they must have made up, right? Tony winced a little at her last memory; of course it had to be that. What's the chances of forgetting everything else and remembering their fight?

"Oh… About that, I'm sorry that was way out of line."

"It is fine." She quickly replied, obviously not wanting to talk about it as she looked away.

Tony was in the waiting room with an irate and worried Gibbs. He managed to fabricate a story that seemed plausible and believable as to why he was with Ziva at such an early hour of the morning, without obviously telling the truth. Although Ziva didn't remember the evening he still wouldn't break his promise of not telling Gibbs about how he found her on the floor. In a way he did want her to remember the events of the evening so that she could see how he had made up for their little tiff yesterday.

"Mr DiNozzo?" He looked up to see the doctor standing in front of him with a clipboard. Gibbs moved over to listen in on the results for the tests they had been conducting for the last hour.

"Did you find out what is wrong?"

"Yes we did. You said she had been drinking earlier?" Gibbs looked at Tony and scowled for the detail he had forgotten to mention.

"Ah, yeah."

"It seems she had her drink spiked, when she first started to have the migraines it was the climax of the affect. The only problem was when she took the painkillers it reacted causing the rashes you saw and the swelling. We think it may have been the Codeine that she reacted to, it is quite common. It would have also increased the effects of the drugs used to spike her drink, hence the temporary memory loss and acute migraine." Tony took it all in and questions raced through his mind as he thought of someone spiking her drink; who was it? He realised his mistake of giving her such strong painkillers and wasn't even sure if she had ever taken painkillers in her life before; it could be the reason she reacted to it so easily. He also took notice of the temporary memory loss, temporary being the operative word. How much will she remember? Earlier on when they were sitting in the shower he asked who had attacked her and she couldn't remember, he wondered if she would remember that also and was hoping to get the opportunity to punch the guy in the face, or if it was Addison; throw his arse in jail.

"How long will it take for her to recover?" Gibbs said to the tall, thin doctor.

"She should be able to leave some time during the course of the day. She is currently on an IV and we are just flushing out her system." He nodded to the doctor and he left the waiting room leaving the two agents to ponder on the current circumstances.

"She can't continue with this Op." Tony said quietly not looking up from the floor.

"Yeah, you're right Tony. We will bring him in tomorrow."

"Do we have enough?"

"We have enough to hold him. He's not doing anything and after what just happened I think it would just be safer to get him now. We will get a team to sweep through his hotel room tomorrow afternoon."

"We should wait until Ziva is discharged firstly."

"No we need to grab him while we can. You stay with her and we will wait until she's released before interrogating him."

"Sure, I am not sure how she's going to handle this? She is not very good at failing an Op."

"Make sure she knows she didn't fail Tony, we got the guy. I am going back to the safe house; grab some sleep DiNozzo."

"Sure thing Boss."
