Chapter Fifteen

"You and Ziva?" McGee looked back and forth between his partners.

Ziva gave a small shy smile, one that he had only seen a few times. "Yes McGee. Tony and I decided to date."

"Gibbs is going to kill you." McGee warned.

"No he won't McWorry. Chill out." Tony gave a gentle glare to the "probie".

McGee seemed like he looked beyond them. "Don't say I didn't warn you." Quickly he went to his desk and began to find something to do.

Ziva and Tony looked at each other then readied themselves for a sharp pain in the back of their heads that never came.

"Boss?"

"Follow me. Now." Gibbs demanded before walking to the elevator. His voice was gruff and the two agents knew automatically something was wrong. And that McGee was right. Gibbs was going to kill them.

As soon as all three of them were in and the doors closed Gibbs flipped the switch.

"Boss before you say anything-." Tony quickly spoke up before Gibbs could.

"Don't want to hear it DiNozzo." Gibbs gave him a glare and then looked at him and Ziva, "what happened to my rules?"

Ziva didn't glance at Tony but stared straight at Gibbs. "Tony stopped me from leaving. He came all the way to the plane just to beg me not to leave. I think, Gibbs, that a part of me has always liked Tony. More than just a work partner, or friend. When Tony stopped me, I think I realized that."

Gibbs nodded listening to Ziva. He look at Tony. "DiNozzo, you take care of Ziva. You don't, I have connections with Abby."

Ziva saw out of the corner of her eye Tony's Adam's Apple bob as he gulped. He stared at Gibbs but she knew he was trying not to look at her like she was.

"Yes boss. I'll treat her how she deserves to be treated." Tony finally said after the silence got to him.

Ziva looked at Gibbs again as he looked at her.

"Zivers, if he doesn't, don't kill him. Let me." Gibbs looked at both of them, "and if you break another one of my rules, I won't hesitate to talk to Abby about getting rid of you two without evidence."

Ziva nodded, "yes Gibbs. Thank you."

Tony just stared at Gibbs, bracing himself for a hit on the head.

Gibbs flipped the switch once more. "And, one more thing." The door opened with a ding and Gibbs' hands met the back of his agents heads with a good hard slap to the head.

Tony groaned and rubbed his head as he and Ziva left the elevator.

Ziva did the same without any verbal expression. She walked to her desk and sat while Tony went to his.

A wordless McGee watched.

Gibbs glanced at his team and then at McGee, "take a note from them before you and Abby get any ideas." He turned on his heel and left. In search obviously, for coffee.

Ziva began to laugh at her friend who sat shell shocked across the bullpen. Tony let out a few chuckles that ended up in snorts.

McGee looked at them, "I didn't know he knew."

More laughter erupted from the couple to the point they were red. McGee was too, from embarrassment.

"Oh Probie! Gibbs knows everything!" Tony snorted.

"You cannot get passed him." Ziva chuckled.

"Thanks. You guys aren't so great at that either."

Ziva chuckled more, "we aren't. But you thought you were a slick person."

McGee glared at the older agents and began to pout, laughter still filling the bullpen around him.

A/N:Sorry this is short. this took me a week to write cause I have a slight block. Hopefully I can get through it. I think i'll have a few more chapters before I end this. Not sure. But thank you all so much for the reviews and favorites. Y'all rock! :)
