A/N: So I took my kiddos to the park and now we are home relaxing and I can write chapter 6 for all you lovely people!! There are sooo many hits and alerts and some reviews it makes me smile when I open my inbox and there are soo many emails from fanfiction. Lol! ENJOY AND REVIEW :)
It was late on Friday by the time Jenny and Ziva settled in to their hotel and Tony into his new apartment. He was very happy with his new place. It was on the beach and his living room overlooked the ocean. He loved the ocean.
Nikki had called up the rest of his new team and asked them to meet at a local bar so that he could get introduced tonight. Jenny and Ziva were going to meet there as well.
He had pretended to be asleep on the plane. He had heard every word she said to Jenny. So she said he did a good job but actions speak louder than words and after she went to Gibbs for help instead of him he didn't know what to think. He had been hoping that after he slammed the door in her face Thursday night he would never have to see her again. But then she showed up at the airport for protection detail. Made sense that the assassin was the one to protect the director he just wished Ziva wasn't the assassin. No, that's not true. He loved the fact that she was an assassin. It was one of the many things that attracted him to her. But he was still too hurt to tell her.
Tony walked into a dimly lit bar. There was loud salsa music playing. He searched around for Nikki or the director but couldn't find either so he walked over and sat at the bar. The bartender was a cute petite blonde wearing a low cut shirt. "Que quieres que?"
He smiled at her turning on the Dinozzo charm. "Yo quiero una cerveza. Por favor." He winked at her as she smiled back. She slid the bottle down to him and then came to lean on the bar in front of him. They fell into easy conversation, flirting and talking until Tony heard a familiar voice behind him.
"Flirting with the bartender already Dinozzo?"
"You know me director. Just trying to make new friends." He turned around and winked at her.
She smiled. She knew all about Dinozzo's boyish charms. She sometimes even blushed when he flirted with her. Although he was way too young for her. "Well Tony the rest of your team is waiting to meet you over at the table. Care to join us?"
"Lead the way." He got up and followed her throwing another smile back at the bartender.
"Everyone this is your new team leader, Senior Special Agent Anthony Dinozzo. Agent Dinozzo this is Agent Michael Vardigo he is senior field agent and profiler" She paused while they shook hands and then continued. "This is Agent Blake Mannon, he is really good with computers" Another hand shake. "And of course you know Agent Nikki Jardine." He smiled and winked at Nikki. He remembered she didn't like germs.
"So how's it going?" He said still with his dazzling hundred watt smile. Ziva knew he was nervous. She could tell. She so badly wanted to reach out and take his hand as a comforting gesture but knew it would be inappropriate.
"Eh, this is the first time we've had a chance to get out of the office." Blake replied. Ziva noticed for a computer guy he was rather cute. He was tall with dark brown hair and an athletic build. Michael was somewhat heftier, not fat just bulkier with a short buzz cut and he was also tall. Neither one compared to Tony however. She really needed to stop thinking about him that way.
Ziva sat quietly while the conversation flowed. She occasionally would steal a glance in Tony's direction. Once or twice she caught him staring back. She really wanted to talk to him before she went back to DC.
Suddenly a familiar song filled the bar causing both of them to smile and look up at each other. Tony stood up and walked over to her and held out his hand smiling. She took it letting him lead her to the dance floor. He pulled her close and whispered the words in her ear. As hard as he had tried to stay upset with her he couldn't. Not with their song playing.
I've got you under my skin
I've got you deep in the heart of me
So deep in my heart that you're really a part of me
I've got you under my skin
I'd tried so not to give in
I've said to myself this affair will never go so well
But why should I try to resist when baby I know so well
I've got you under my skin
She let out a sigh of relief and smiled as she felt his hot breath against her ear. Whispering the words to her favorite song. His favorite song. Their song. Maybe they would be okay after all.
Jenny watched from her seat. She was glad they were working things out. Seeing them together made her think back to Paris when she and Jethro looked like the two of them. She just hoped they would end up better than she and Gibbs had. Maybe there was still a chance for her and Jethro. She really hoped there was.
As the music interlude came to end Ziva began to whisper the final verse to Tony.
I would sacrifice anything come what might
For the sake of havin' you near
In spite of the warning voice that comes in the night
And repeats how it yells in my ear
Don't you know, little fool, you never can win
Why not use your mentality step up wake up to reality
And each time I do just the thought of you
Makes me stop before I begin
'cause I've got you under my skin
And I like you under my skin
As the song came to an end so did their dancing. Tony just still held her close looking into her eyes. He pulled her into a hug and heard her whisper "I'm sorry."
"Don't apologize it's…"
"A sign of weakness." She finished for him chuckling lightly. He still held her and put his nose in her hair taking in her scent. She smelled like some sort of flower. He wanted to remember this moment with her. Because no matter what happens come Monday she would be back in DC. He may be able to forgive her but not Gibbs and not Mcgee. Rota would be his new home. He wondered if she and Abby would come visit him.
They finally pulled apart after a minute and he intertwined their fingers leading her back to the table. They rejoined the group falling back into the conversation. They all got along so great they didn't even realize what time it was until the bartender announced last call. They all stood up and made their way to the parking lot. Everyone said goodbye to Ziva and the director.
"See ya Monday boss." Mannon said getting into his car. Tony smiled, he really did like the sound of being called boss. Jardine and Vardigo said their goodbyes to the boss as well and left leaving Ziva and the director. Tony walked them to their car.
"Tony, come by the hotel tomorrow. Well I guess later today. I have some paperwork and other things that still need to be filled out." The director said sliding into the passenger seat.
"Yes ma'am." He said shutting the door for her and walking Ziva to the driver's side of the car. "See ya later?"
"Yes you will."
He pulled her into another hug. And watched her drive away. He would definitely miss her. But he still had the rest of the weekend to be with her. He would make it count.
