"Cynthia,should we go check on her?" Patel asked Jones after another minute of no contact from Rizzo had passed.

"You can." Jones answered

"You're not going to come with me?" Patel asked. She was completely shocked at her friend.

"Nope." Jones bluntly stated.

"Why not? What if something happens to me?" Patel asked frightened.

"I'm not going because I don't care if Kristy's hanging upside down off a tree naked, and you'll be fine." Jones said with a smirk. Patel couldn't help but laugh at her statement.

"Seriously, come on." Patel whined as she moved to leave the tent.

"I'll come with you to tell Tony that he needs to go and find Rizzo."

"Deal."

They both climbed out of the tent and made their way over to Tony's tent. They heard a twig snap from behind them and they both instantly reacted to the noise,only to find out it actually was a squirrel. It was a hard journey to Tony's tent even though it was only set up about ten feet away from theirs, neither of the agents had thought to grab their flash lights.

Jones reached out to unzip Tony's tent when Patel reached out to stop her.

"What?" Jones asked angrily. She was tired, cold, and honestly could care less about what happened to she wanted to do was crawl back into the tent and into her warm sleeping bag so she could pretend to be alert and listening for the sounds of a murderer that she knew wouldn't be stupid enough to show up. Jones thought Gibbs' "Gut Feelings" were absolutely ridiculous. Because of Gibb's they were all stuck in tents in a basically deserted camp ground for no reason. In all of the cases Jones had ever worked, they had never staked out the crime scene, maybe a suspects house or a person of interests workplace, but never had they just all sat around a crime scene for someone who wasn't going to show up. They always tell investigators that the guilty sometimes show back up at the crime scene, but Jones had yet to see that happen. Everyone always went on about what a good agent Gibbs was, but she was still waiting to be impressed.

"You can't just barge into their tent, what if they're...you know, indecent." Patel said, almost embarrassed.

"They should have thought of that before they sent me out here in the woods!" And with that she swiftly unzipped the tent and woke Tony up. "DiNozzo!"

"What?" He groaned, his voice waking up Ziva as well, and Ziva gave all three of them the deadliest look she could, there was nothing Ziva hated more then being woken up in the middle of the night.

"Kristy's missing, thought you might wanna know,bye." Patel said without a breath and then she practically ran back to her tent. Tony looked to Jones curiously.

"She went to check on a noise, she screamed, and now she's gone. It's your job to keep your agents safe." Jones explained before making her way back to the tent as well.

"This Agent Rizzo seems like more trouble than she is worth." Ziva snapped before she buried her head back into her pillow. "Just leave her out there, she will be fine, she is a trained NCIS Agent." She mumbled.

"How do you think Vance, or even Gibbs, would react if they found out I lost an agent?" He asked. Tony was in no mood to go and find her either. He was actually kind of scared. What if she kissed him again, or even tried to take it farther? if she caught him off guard while he was walking out in the woods alone looking for her, it wouldn't be hard to take advantage of him. On top of that there was the fact that Ziva could go out looking for Tony if he ended up being gone too long. What would happen if Ziva walked behind a tree and happened to see Tony and Kisty kissing. Ziva wouldn't be able to tell that Kristy had kissed Tony, and not the other way around.

"They would not be happy." She replied.

"Come with me?" He asked her, desperately hoping she would say yes. At least if Ziva was with him, Crazy Kristy wouldn't be able to try anything.

After realizing she wouldn't be getting back to sleep anytime soon, Ziva agreed and began to put her shoes on. Tony grabbed his flashlight and cell phone and they both headed out into the camp grounds, with Tony's large hand holding tightly on to Ziva's smaller one.

They had been walking around for nearly an hour now. There was no Kristy to be found and Tony decided to head back towards their tent. Ziva was half asleep. Her eyes were closed with her head resting on tony's shoulder and he had his arm around her waist, and he was sure that he removed his arm from their she would fall to the ground from being so tired. Tony knew Ziva was able to go nights without sleeping at all, but tonight was definitely not one of those nights. He looked down at the beautiful woman sleeping on his shoulder as they continued walking. Her mouth was slightly open, her hair was a complete mess and her cheeks were red from the cold, and she was still the most gorgeous woman Tony had ever laid eyes on, and she was all his. He comply could not wait to get back to D.C. where he had a whole date planned out for them where he was going to propose. it may have seemed like an extremely too soon leap in their relationship, but he was ready, and he knew she was too. And soon enough, everything was going to be perfect..for the both of them.

When Tony and Ziva had made it back to the camp site, there was Kristy, sitting on the stump of a tree staring blankly in front of her. Tony shook Ziva slightly so that she would be awake when they reached her.

"Where have you been?" Tony asked her. He got no reply,she just kept on staring in front of her, not moving, not blinking, and her breathing was so slight that you wouldn't have been able to tell she was breathing unless you focused extremely hard. Tony said ; "Kristy!" but he still got no form of response out of her. He walked closer to her, letting go of Ziva, so that he could try to get her to go back into her tent, because she had to be freezing. He lifted her off the stump. He walked her over to her tent and called in to Jones to unzip it.

Jones opened the tent to see Tony standing outside of it with a limp Kristy in his arms.

"I'm not sure what's wrong with her, so please keep an eye on her ,keep her warm, we'll find out what the hell is going on in the morning." Tony explained and Jones responded with a nod and helped tony get Kristy into her sleeping bag.

He groggily made his way back to his tent where he found Ziva already laying down. He took off his shoes, put his gun, flashlight,and phone where they belonged and slipped in next to Ziva. She automatically moved closer to him and the warmth he provided and he wrappedhis arm around her waist, as if they'd been doing it for years opposed to only a few weeks.

"I love you, and I'm sorry about all the crap Kristy has been causing." He whispered.

She mumbled something into his chest that sounded like"I love you too, but do not be surprised if I shoot her soon. " And Tony couldn't help but chuckle as he pulled her closer to him, if that were even possible.

Sorry,this is kind of short. I have this week off so I'm going to try to use that time to hopefully get two more chapters up this week. I was going to try to make this chapter longer but i really wanted to put it up tonight and I'm too tired to write anything more right now. Please Review, and I'll try to get more chapters up asap(:
