Disclaimer: Alrighty. I do not own NCIS, but I wish I did. Thank you for the reviews, especially lalalalauren24 and dg101. Like I said before, ideas for Bella and Tim are always welcome. Well, enjoy!

Ziva knocked loudly on the door, unsure if she was at the correct address. The door opened to see a smiling Bella. "Ziva, I'm glad that you could make it, please come in."

"Bella, your house is absolutely wonderful. How did you afford such a place?"

She laughed, showing Ziva to the dining room. "I was enlisted in the Navy for about eight years. I put my money to buying a home, and voila, this is it." She answered as she slipped into the kitchen.

"I don't even think Tony has an apartment his nice,"

Bella laughed, "Ziva, he spends his money on adult magazines, movies, and probably women." She walked out holding garlic bread and a salad. "Give me just a second Ziva." Walking back into the kitchen, she came out holding a pasta bowl and some margarita glasses. "Tonight, is girl's night."

Sitting down she passed the food to Ziva, "So Ziva, how did you get into NCIS?"

"Well, I first started as a liaison officer for Mossad Intelligence, then I decided to leave Mossad and become an official member of NCIS. What about you?"

"Well, when I was in the Navy I liked watching the M.P's work. That and my uncle is involved in NCIS so I pretty much grew up around it.

Curiosity filled Ziva's voice, "Your uncle is an NCIS agent?"

Bella glanced down grabbing her drink, "Yea. What about your family Ziva? Were they in Mossad too?"

Ziva stiffened slightly, "My father was the head director of Mossad. My brother Ari worked for Mossad, before he was killed."

"Oh, Ziva I'm so sorry I didn't mean to."

Ziva gave her a small smile, "It's alright. He did not suffer. Ari was killed by my own hand. He was trying to kill Gibbs."

Bella started coughing, "He what?"

Ziva watched her, "I said he tried to kill Gibbs. What of your family Bella? You said that your Uncle was NCIS, were your parents military too?"

Bella sighed, "My parents were military. They were both killed when I was 15. The base was attacked by another officer." A tear slides down the side of her face.

"Bella, I-"

"It's alright Ziva. I do miss them terribly but life goes on. They wouldn't want me to sit and cry for them every time someone asked." She got up grabbing her plate and the other dishes. Ziva fell in behind her stacking the plates on the counter. "Now" Bella replied with a grin as she grabbed the blender full of the magaritas, "is the fun part."

(A few hours later)

Bella and Ziva were sitting in the middle of her living room floor cracking up laughing.

"You would think Tony would learn by now to just keep certain things to himself. Although I must admit, nothing beats last week at the park."

Ziva smiled, "I do not think he has ever been afraid of Gibbs as he was of you that day."

Bella snorted as she sipped from her drink, "Good. Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned."

Cocking her head, Ziva looks at her confused, "I do not believe I have ever had of that one before."

"In other words, Not even the pits of hell can be more terrifying then a pissed off woman.

Ziva grinned, "I will drink to that. Speaking of Tony, what do you think of him?"

Bella rolls her eyes taking another sip, "Besides being immature? He seems to be a pretty nice guy. Don't really know him well enough to say."

"So no romantic feelings at all towards him?" Ziva asks, glancing down into her glass, trying to hide her attraction towards the Senior Field Agent.

She giggled, "Towards Tony? Absolutely not."

Ziva mentally sighed. That was good to know. "Well what about Tim?" She watched as Bella turned her head away from her, a faint blush on her cheek.

"I don't know what you're talking about." She stood from her spot on the floor and moved to the kitchen.

Following her, "You do, do you not? You have feelings for McGee."

Bella stuck her glass in the sink turning on the water, "I don't know where you would get such a ridiculous idea Ziva."

Ziva smirked going into interrogation mode. "When I asked about Tim you blushed. I have seen the way you to glance at each other at work, and the day Tony and I walked off the elevator to see you and Tim in your own little imaginary world."

"Fantasy world Ziva, not imaginary."

"Do you like McGee?"

Bella scoffs, trying to hide the smile in her voice, "No, Ziva, I don't."

"It is his baby face that started these feelings, yes? Maybe it is that he reads Cosmo? This is a girl's night, yes? Girls share secrets with each other."

Bella turns to Ziva and shakes her head, "I can't have feelings for him, Ziva. I have rules against dating or even liking a man I work with in a romantic way."

Ziva shakes her head, "What is with you and Gibbs and rules. Rules were made to be snapped, Bella."

"Broken, Ziva. Rules were made to be broken," Bella corrects.

Waving her hand, "Yes, that too. You have to take a jump of faith."

"Leap of faith, yeah, I know. But-"

"No buts, do you like him or not?"

She closed her eyes looking at the ceiling, "I do."
