A/N: I cried so much when I logged on and read your messages. I can't thank you enough, you have all been too kind and you have made me feel so much better. It was my friend's funeral the other day, so I'm feeling a bit better now that things are complete. I want to thank anyone who has been thinking or praying for me and my friend's family, your support really has helped and I can't say thank you enough. You are all amazing and I'm so relieved that you understand! I could never abandon you!

Tony kissed Ziva slowly and carefully . He pulled her into his arms and against his chest and sighed and wrapped the duvet around them.

"So you are telling me we did NOT sleep together?" Ziva asked. Her face was pulled into a puzzled expression that made Tony laugh.

"Nope, you kinda collapsed in my arms and went to sleep. I get it, it's been a tough week for you."

"Oh, well how about now?" Ziva smiled.

"I... I don't think so Ziva." He hurried to tell her the reason why when he saw her disappointed look. "It's just that, it's hard for me. I mean... Jeanne was so important to me, and I don't want to screw this up like I did with her. You're important to me and you're worth more." He shrugged.

Ziva smiled. "Thank you Tony." She placed her hand on his chest and began to hum quietly until they were both sleeping.

"I defiantly think that Jane is involved. She is presenting almost stalker behaviour." Ziva said to Gibbs when he came in the morning. "I think we should put surveillance on her."

"DiNozzo. Go back with McGee and sort it." Gibbs said. He wouldn't look at Tony as he walked out. When they had gone Gibbs turned to Ziva.

"You lied to me David."

"What are you talking about? Of course I didn't!" Ziva was shocked. Gibbs was the last person she would betray.

"You specifically told me there was nothing going on between you and DiNozzo. Give me one reason why I shouldn't send you back to Israel right now!" He barked.

"I... I was not lying to you then." Ziva stammered. "And I will not lie to you now. There is something between me and Tony, but we need time to figure that something out." She said more confidently.

"Time! You don't have time David!" Gibbs yelled. "You are working an undercover case! You have to focus!"

"Don't you think I know that Gibbs!?" Ziva shouted back. "I know this is dangerous for me, Tony and the rest of the team! I didn't choose for it to happen! Tony and I will sort this after the case has finished." She said calmly. She was breathing heavily and her fist was clenched into a ball with anger.

"Rule number 12 is there for a reason David. Think about that." Gibbs muttered as he stormed out. Ziva sat on the sofa and punched the cushion. She yelled in frustration and threw a chair across the room and sat on the floor with her head in her hands.

"Stupid. Ziva you are so stupid." She laughed to herself. She sighed and put her head back so it smacked against the wall. She chuckled quietly and stood up, nursing the back of her head.

"Stupid." she repeated again, and she walked into the bathroom. She undressed and turned the shower onto full heat, filling the room with steam. Ziva could barely see where she was going as she stepped into the searing heat. It relaxed her muscles though and she sighed as calmed her. She sat on the floor of the shower and began to sob. Her chest felt as though it was being torn in several directions, and it burned as it pulled. She tried to breathe but she couldn't calm herself down enough to get enough breath. It was then she realised that she was not alone.

"Tony?" She asked.

"Guess again." A high voice said threateningly.

A/N: OK, so this was rubbish! Lol! However, I'm working on the next chapter and it should be up soon. Bear with me, and thank you again everyone, honestly, you have all cheered me up immensely! Oh, and to everyone that PM me, sorry I didn't get back to you, I will try to within the week! I'm, sorry it's really short as well, I'm having a bit of writer's block!
