The Breaking
"Break it! Break it? You can't break it! It's like a universal code. It's like breaking the laws of gravity!"
Tony watched Ziva rant with a dim smile that haunted the morning face of every guy that had got lucky the previous night.
"It's a little late now. We broke it. We broke rule number 12." He yawned and lay back on the pillows
"Ah but not really. We are not dating. We just had sex."
"But technically that is breaking rule number 1. Never screw your partner."
"Over. Never screw over your partner." Ziva narrowed her eyes at him.
"This is different though Ziva. I love you and I think soon I will be ready to tell the world I have committed to something for the first time in a while."
Ziva smiled at him and stroked his cheek as she lay back down next to him.
"Gibbs first then?" she asked. Her heart pounding at the breaking of this most important rule. Number 12.
He nodded, biting his lip. "After new years. Together." he nodded to himself. Then reached for her hand. "Merry Christmas day." he whispered. Kissed her again sleepily.
"Do we have to get up?" Ziva asked with a yawn.
"Nope." Grinned Tony pulling her back for some more lovin'.
This was a short one. Next will probably be sometime in the New Year because I am going away. I will cover a few chapters though. 3
