"Tony what are you doing here?" Ziva asked.
"I just came by to make sure you where okay"
"I assure you that I am perfectly fine, I am just getting the flu" Tony eyed Ziva suspiciously. "What?"
"You're hiding something"
"Goodbye Tony" Ziva closed the door before Tony could ask more questions. Ziva flopped back down onto her bed and decided to call Eben.
"Hello"
"Shalom Eben"
"Ah Ziva I didn't expect to hear from you so soon"
"I didn't expect to call so soon, but the case has been postponed"
"Can I ask why?"
"I have come down with the flu"
"I am sorry to hear that, I am free tonight I will come over and make you dinner"
"That would be lovely"
"I'll be there at seven goodbye"
"Shalom" Ziva sighed; the thought of Eben coming over made her feel a little better.
Tony drove back to NCIS, although the case was postponed there was still other work to be done, he probably wouldn't stay long just long enough to keep Gibbs happy. He wanted to stop by Ziva's house later that night. He knew she was hiding something, but couldn't work out what and he definitely didn't believe the 'I have the flu' excuse. When he arrived the bullpen was empty so he decided to go pay Abby a visit.
"Hey Abbs"
"Tony, where is Ziva is she ok" Abby asked concerned.
"She is at home, i am gonna check on her later"
"If she is sick you should be with her" Tony rolled his eyes.
"Ziva's tough Abby she doesn't need me"
"Sure she dosen't" Abby said.
"Where's McGee?" Tony asked changing the subject. Abby pointed the other room and tony strolled over to the room. McGee was sprawled out in a chair with an icepack covering his face. Tony walked up and removed it.
"What did you do McBruize"
"I dont want to talk about it" McGee grabbed the icepack from Tony and placed it gently back on his face.
"Come on you can tell me"
"I stumbled Tony"
"There's gotta be more to it than that McClumsy"
"Leave Timmy alone he is in pain" Abby wrapped her arms around his neck leaning her head on his shoulder.
"Come on in" Ziva said smiling as she greeted Eben with a kiss. Eben was carrying a small bag of groceries and was wearing a long dark coat. He always looks so amazing Ziva mused.
"How are you feeling?"
"Better now that you are here" Eben smiled back.
"Let me take that" Ziva said leaning forward to take the bag from him.
"No, I am here to look after you and make you dinner, why don't you go rest and I'll call you when it is ready." He flashed his bright smile again, and Ziva couldn't argue. She slowly walked to her couch watching him as he unloaded the groceries.
"What are you making?"
"It's a surprise" Ziva perched herself on the couch. 'It is strange one minute I feel like I am going to pass out and the next I feel perfectly fine' she lent back and turned the television on and began to flick through different channels.
Advert, advert, advert some one singing, some one dancing, fat person running, she then stopped she recognized the man on the screen and then realized it was Magnum P.I. She had watched it several times with Tony and had rather enjoyed it. She dropped the remote and curled up with the blanket that was on the couch.
Eben heard giggles coming from the lounge room and decided to see what Ziva was watching.
"What are you watching?"
"It's called Magnum P.I." Eben looked at Ziva strangely.
"I didn't think that was your kind of show, any way dinner is just about ready" Eben took Ziva's hand and led her to the dinning table. He had neatly set it and placed a single candle in the middle.
"It's beautiful" she smiled, taking a seat. Eben brought over two plates and placed one in front of her. Chicken parmigiana her favorite. Ziva looked at the plate she felt her stomach turn; she tried to ignore it and took a bite. As soon as she swallowed her stomach flipped and she raced from her seat to the bathroom slamming the door, quickly followed by Eben.
"Ziva are you alright?" He asked trying to sound concerned. I few minutes later Ziva immerged from the bathroom looking flushed.
"I think you should go to the doctor" Eben wrapped an arm around Ziva.
"Maybe your right" Ziva admitted.
"Go sit down I'll clean up the kitchen and we will watch something" he rubbed her shoulder. Once again Ziva resumed her position on the couch but this time she didn't feel as good. Some one knocked loudly on the door.
"I'll get it" Eben said jogging over to the door. He pulled it open to reveal Tony.
"Hello, who are you?" he said suspiciously.
"I'm here to see Ziva, who are you?" Ziva could hear Tony's voice and hurried over to the door.
"Eben, I"
"Tony what are you doing here" he was cut off by Ziva
"I came to check on you" Eben pulled Ziva into his side.
"No need for that, ill be taking care of her"
"Thank you Tony it was very considerate of you" Tony nodded.
"Ill see you at work" before he could turn to leave the door was closed In his face yet again. A shudder went down his spine as he walked away. 'I knew she was hiding something from me, how could she date him he is so not her type, there is something strange about him I will definitely have to keep on eye on him, oh god I sound like a jealous ex when did that happen?'
Ziva was curled up on the couch with Eben her head was rested against his chest.
"Come now Ziva lets go to bed, you have an early doctor appointment tomorrow" Ziva nodded in agreement and let Eben pull her from the couch and leading her to her bedroom.
Hope you liked it and please review. Sorry it is so short.
