1800h Tony's Apartment
Tony stood in his kitchen with the fridge door open. He couldn't decide what he was hungry for. He was waiting for Ziva to get there. They had agreed to get together tonight to talk about what happened with Mickey today. Just then there was a knock on the door.
He opened the door without looking up until her heard a voice that was not who he was expecting.
"Hey stud."
"Mickey, wha-wha-what are you doing here? I told you I had plans tonight." He said very confused.
"I know, but I really wanted to talk to you. She isn't here yet is she?"
"Who?"
"Whoever your plans are with tonight."
"Oh, no not here yet but should be any minute."
"Well I'll only be a minute. Can I come in or are you gonna make me stand out here and talk to you?" she said teasingly.
"No, uh, come in."
Ziva had chosen that moment to step around the corner in time to see Mickey enter the apartment. She was pissed now. How could Tony do that to her? She turned around and walked back down to her car and drove away. She was not going in there now or ever again.
Back in Tony's apartment
"Look I will make this fast. Ziva came and talked to me today when I was down in the studio about my behavior in the elevator."
"She did? Wait studio? So you're dancing again?" He couldn't believe Ziva told Mickey they were together.
"Yes, I am dancing again. But she brought to my attention that it was inappropriate to flirt like that in the office and she is right. It was very inappropriate. I promise to keep it out of the office from now on."
"Did you learn any new dance moves in Africa?"
She took a step closer to him. "Maybe I'll show you sometime." She said looking him up and down.
Tony smiled back at her and took a step back. "I've seen all your moves before Mic. I was especially fond of a few of them."
"Oh ya? Which ones? Maybe we can go over them again." She said grinning back at him.
He laughed. "I don't think so. You should probably go."
"Ya I probably should." She turned to leave but stopped and looked back at him. "What's her name?"
"What?"
"The girl you're waiting for. What's her name?"
"Oh, well it's actually just a friend from college. No date." He said hoping it sounded believable.
"Uh huh. Bye stud." She winked at him and walked out.
Tony rubbed a hand over his face as the door shut and then looked at his watch. Ziva was late. She was never late.
He pulled out his cell phone and called her. The call went to voicemail. Maybe she was just stuck in traffic or something. He took a seat on the couch thinking she would be here soon.
A couple hours later
He was really starting to get worried. She still wasn't answering her phone. He finally got tired of waiting and drove to her apartment.
He parked out on the curb and saw her rental. She was here.
The walk up to her apartment made him nervous. Did she forget they were getting together or did he mix it up was he actually suppose to meet her at her apartment and he was the one that was actually late. If that was the case then she was going to be pissed.
He hesitantly knocked on the door. The door swung open revealing an extremely pissed off Israeli.
Shit he thought. He did mix it up. "Hey." He said timidly.
She glared at him for what seemed like an eternity but in fact was a few seconds. She turned and walked away into her living room leaving the door open.
He took this as his cue to come in. He shut the door quietly behind him and walked in to the living room where he found her standing with her arms across her chest still very mad.
Both stood just staring at each other. Her glaring and him looking very confused.
She cleared her throat. "What are you doing here, Tony?"
"Uh, we were supposed to talk tonight. Right? I mean at least that's what I thought."
"Oh so you did remember. You see that is very funny Tony because when I showed up at your apartment like we agreed I saw Mickey there. How could you do that? After everything last night. You still were with her." She said obviously hurt.
"What are you talking about?"
"I am talking about Mickey being at your apartment tonight!" She practically was screaming now.
"Mickey just showed up. She said she wanted to apologize for flirting with me at work because you told her it was inappropriate or something like that."
Ziva ran her hands through her hair. "You cannot really be this naïve Tony! Do you really not see what she is doing?"
He shook his head."No I don't understand what has you so upset."
"She wants you Tony! It is blatantly obvious, because every time she sees you she is undressing you and flirting with you." She looked down at her feet.
Tony stepped closer to Ziva and put his hands on her arms. She looked up and took a step back pulling away from him.
"Zee please! The only girl I want is you. Don't you see that?" He said taking another step forward but not touching her.
Ziva was on the verge of tears. She shook her head at him. "You say that now Tony, but what happens when all those feelings for her come back. I cannot be in a relationship with you if you are just going to leave for someone else."
"There are no feelings for her. There never were. I love you Ziva David." He took her hand and looked in her eyes trying to make sure she understood.
Ziva stood there shocked. "What?"
"I Love you."
