NCIS 'Conference Room'.
"Good morning Ziva" Abby cheerfully greets her friend as she steps into the elevator.
"Good morning Abs" Ziva responds with a big smile as she presses a button.
"Did you have a good weekend?"
"Yes, I did. I slept with Tony."
"You did what?" Abby lunges forward and flicks the emergency stop switch.
"Slept with Tony" Ziva replies turning to her with a puzzled frown. Abby hugs her.
"Go you. Was it good?" Ziva just stares at her. "No, don't answer that. On second thoughts I don't want to know. Just don't tell the Boss though. I don't think he'd approve." She flicks the emergency switch again and when the doors open bounds out into the squad room. As Ziva steps out behind her she thinks approve what?
Abby's Lab.
"You won't believe this McGee."
"What?"
"Ziva slept with Tony on the weekend."
"What! You're kidding right? Is this prank-the-probie day or something?"
"She told me this morning."
"Oh..." is all Tim can think of to say as he is too busy picking his jaw up off the floor.
"Well it's not like we didn't see it coming. I'm just surprised it's taken them this long but good for them. Dunno how the Boss will take it though and you know it's impossible to keep a secret from him besides being a very, very bad idea trying to do so and..."
"What's going on in here?" Abby and Tim turn to see Tony leaning in the doorway. Abby rushes over to him and flings her arms around him. "I'm so happy for you Tony. It took you long enough." She steps back and grins at him.
"What are you talking about Abs?" he queries as he steps into the room.
She takes a sip of Caf-Pow! before responding. "I heard you had a big weekend."
"Ah, no. It was fairly quiet actually."
"Really?"
"What are you trying to say Abs?"
"It's O.K. Tony we know. She told us."
"Who told you what?"
"Ziva told me that she slept with you. Don't worry Tony we won't blow your cover with the Boss." Tony laughs.
"What's funny about that?"
"Well I won't deny I did sleep with Ziva..."
"Oh, my God!"
"That is we shared a bed..."
"And about time too."
"Abs!"
"Sorry."
"It was only because there was a problem with the heating in her building so she is staying with me for a few days."
"And it was very kind of Tony to offer" adds Ziva as she enters the room. "The Boss wants you back upstairs Tony and he said to tell you McGee and Abby that he wants that analysis done by lunchtime so he hopes you two are working hard."
"Right then." The two of them leave.
"Well it looks like you got that one wrong Abby." McGee grins at her.
"No, I didn't. They are sleeping together just not how I thought. I wish Ziva would get her expressions straight." They settle in at the computers and start to work.

"So I told Abby we slept together."
"Yeah, I worked that out. Why did you do that?"
"Well we did. She seemed really happy about it for some reason. I do not understand why that would be?" she asks as she steps out of the elevator.
"Um...that is...you see..." he stammers following her.
"We've got a case."Never before has Tony been so glad for a Gibbs interruption. "DiNozzo gas the truck. Ziva call Ducky and McGee."
As she begins to gather her gear Ziva fleetingly wonders about Abby's remark not to tell the Boss she'd slept with Tony and as he gathers his Tony makes a mental note to buy her a book on American expressions. He also wonders if they ever will get around to doing more than merely sleeping together.
