A/N I know I haven't updated in FOREVER my laptop broke and had to go to the computer doctor but to make it up I promise that by Next Friday Tony and Ziva will have Kissed (and maybe more) REVIEWS ARE LOVED(and make me write faster
If your final destination is what you seek head to the lake and over a peak you whole team must make a leap of faith for your trust in each other is what good teams make
"the jumping rock" Ziva stated and they were off again running full speed Gibbs and Ziva made it first followed shortly by Tony and Jenny and finally Abby and McGee out of breath the final challenge was a giant swing over the lake the instructions told them that two people must sit on the seat and swing across the water and when the swing is at its highest one person must push the partner off before jumping themselves this requires one partner to have complete faith in the other one everyone was in the water then they had to swim over to the opposite shore where Candy
"I dunoo about this Gibbs" Abby eyed the edge of the peak backing away slowly
"Okay" Gibbs barked "Abby you and McGee first then DiNozzo and David then Jenny and myself."
The harnesses were uncomfortable to say the least they required Ziva and Tony to put their legs through the same holes and tighten the waist and legs so that they were only separated by the cloth of their underwear. Ziva cursed Gibbs for insisting that they strip to their underwear to maximize swimming ability it made sense but at the moment she was having a hard time keeping her mind on the task at hand but the view I've the edge of the cliff brought her sharply back to realty it was a long way down.
Ziva was pretty much the closest thing you would ever find to invincible but she had one weakness and she despised it. It came as a result of a childhood trauma that she had never truly recovered from. She HATED heights she worked hard to hide the fear on her face but she knew Tony would notice something was wrong anyway so she twisted around in the harness and looked him in his beautiful green eyes she didn't have to say anything he knew "Zi it's gunna be fine I'm right here I'm not going anywhere he pressed her to his chest and for the first time in a long time Ziva felt safe
"Love birds you're up" Gibbs called Ziva twisted back around and grabbed Tonys thighs as they fell she didn't scream just grabbed harder and Tony himself harden against her, crap so not the time he was sure that she would feel it god she didn't think of him that way he needed to get the fuck out of there but the most he could do was push them off the swing and pray for the best
"Tony Swim" Ziva pulled him back to earth
The swimming part was a lot harder that Ziva had expected not physically they were both exhalent swimmers but the lump in Tonys pants was pressing against her crotch and the waves of arousal crashing over her were somewhat distracting
Tony told himself to focus if Gibbs was close enough he would have slapped him on the back of the head he could fee her wet skin against his this was a thousand times worse that the ropes course and maybe if they hadn't reached the shore at that exact moment he would have lost it but they did reach the shore and they were untied and they both jumped away from each other like the other was on fire
Dammit Ziva get a grip Ziva scolded herself from wanting to kiss tony right then and there she wanted to kiss him and never stop but she couldn't because he was tony and he didn't love her he couldn't love anybody because he was Tony he had loved someone but the stupid silly girl had broken his heart and now he was guarded carful to never make the same mistake again.
"Exhalent Congratulations team Gibbs for winning our very first team challenge but don't worry Team Fornell there will be many more to come " Candy bubbled " now you all have free time before dinner and don't forget lights out at 10 " she turned to go "Opsie dasie I almost forgot Gibbs and Sheppard have been scheduled for partner counseling at 5 which is in 10 minutes Bye" and she skipped off down the path
"I see why you hate her now David" Jenny growled
