Friendship is a magical vehicle in which two distinct souls journey together to different destinations.
"Slow down!" Tony found himself yelling at the top of his lungs. "I want to survive!"
Across from him, in the driver's seat, Ziva grinned. "But Gibbs ordered us to interview this witness and not waste our time," she recalled. "And he gave me the keys."
"Because you were standing right next to him," Tony added. "I was with Abby, helping her to fix Major Mass Spec."
"You do not even know how the Major works," Ziva pointed out. "Why would Abby require your help?"
"Mind the old lady!" Tony screamed, breathing a sigh of relief when his partner swerved. He bit back his panic as he realized she had swerved into the path of a massive truck. "Please, Ziva. I'm begging you. Pull over and let me drive."
"Are you afraid of my driving?" she inquired, turning her head to look at him.
"Watch the road," he ordered, happy when she did as he demanded. "You are… not my first choice of driver."
"I am merely giving you the chance to rest before we talk to this witness," she stated. "What is the problem?"
"Do you even have a driving license?" he wondered, breathing more easily as she pulled the car over to the side of the road. "I've never been so happy to get out of a car."
She punched him, causing a whimper to escape his lips. "Grow up," she advised, before stepping out of the car.
Taking a deep breath, he followed her. With a bit of luck, she would allow him to drive back.
