TIMOTHY MCGEE, IF I HAVE TO TELL YOU AGAIN...
A couple of months ago Timothy McGee and Abby Sciuto got married; now it's time for Tony and Ziva to figure out what they want...
CHAPTER 4: TIM & ABBY FIGURE IT OUT...
NCIS BULLPEN...
THE NEXT MORNING...
Tony and Ziva had stayed awake and only had one hour of sleep, before her alarm had gone off.
Tony had gone home to change and was now running late again...Gibbs was going to kill him.
At least it was Friday and when Tony walked into the Bullpen Ziva and McGee were both at their desk, but thankfully Gibbs was nowhere to be found.
Tim looked up as Tony sat down at his desk and smiled over at Ziva, who returned the smile. So Tim guessed that Tony had at least talked to, Ziva.
Over the past few years Tim had watched Tony and Ziva...
Sometimes he was reminded when Kate was still alive, how Tony had acted with Kate was identical to the way he now acted with, Ziva.
There seemed to be more to Ziva and Tony though.
Tim had watched as they had...
Played the part of married assassins, the two FBI agents on the case, had said there was no way that Tony and Ziva were faking the sex.
Tony had told him that he had taken the couch in Paris and Ziva had told Abby the opposite.
The two would bicker and fight one minute, then flirt the next.
In some of the ways Tony and Ziva acted toward each other, were similar to how him and Abby had acted when they dated.
Tim wondered if Tony and Ziva were dating.
Did Gibbs...
"Hey, McStare...What are you thinking about?" Tony called over to him, breaking into his thoughts.
"Nothing," Tim replied, not wanting to tell Tony.
"Are you thinking of you, Abby and baby Probie?" Tony pressed.
"No, I told you it's nothing." Tim told him.
"It had to be something, since you were staring off into space pretty hard." Tony said and was really starting to get on Tim nerves.
"Drop it, Tony. I told you I wasn't thinking about anything and if I had been, it would not be any of your business." Tim said and turned back to his computer, but didn't really see it.
After a minute Tim decided he couldn't be in the Bullpen right now and headed down to Abby's lab.
"Do you know what's wrong with, McGrumpy?" Tony asked Ziva and she looked up.
"I do not know, okay?" Ziva asked as she leaned back in her chair and closed her eyes.
"David!" Gibbs said coming in with his coffee.
"Gibbs," Ziva said as she jerked awake.
"I thought I told you to keep it out of the office." Gibbs said looking over at Tony.
"We are..." Tony told him.
"Is that why you two are almost asleep?" Gibbs asked.
"We stayed..." Ziva began, but Gibbs was trying told hold back a smile.
"I knew that the day Abby told me about McGee kept looking over at her when he thought she wasn't paying attention. I knew it was only a matter of time, before you two would also break rule twelve or make me change it; McGee, downstairs with Abby?" Gibbs asked.
"Yes, Tony was getting to him and he just went down a few minutes ago." Ziva replied and Gibbs glared at Tony.
After a minute Tony's phone rang.
"DiNo...he-hey Abby...all right, we'll be right down." Tony said hanging up the phone.
"What was that about?" Ziva asked.
"Uh...boss, Abby wants to see me and Ziva in her lab." Tony said as he got up and Ziva looked surprised.
Tony and Ziva headed for the elevator, than hit the button that would take them to the floor with Abby's lab.
"Why would Abby want to see me? You were the one picking on, McGee." Ziva said.
"Abby, did say. All she said is that she wants to see both of us." Tony replied as the elevator stopped and they both got off, heading to Abby's lab.
ABBY'S LAB...
"Tony, was late again? Well it isn't strange that Tony would smile at Ziva, but Ziva smiled back? You also said they were acting the way we did when we first started dating. When he caught you staring, he started to bug you, that's not new." Abby was pacing back and forth, when Tony and Ziva decided to reveal that they were there.
"Hey, Abby, you wanted to see us?" Tony asked.
"Why did you want both of us? Tony was the one..." Ziva began.
"Because from what Tim told me...you two are breaking rule twelve." Abby replied with a smile.
"We're not breaking rule twelve, but Ziva and I stayed awake all night last night talking." Tony told the two.
"That's why you two looked like you were falling asleep and Ziva did for a minute?" Tim asked.
"Yes, I talked to Gibbs the other night and he told me just to keep it out of the office. Probie, you were the one that seemed a little McCranky today." Tony pointed out.
"You're not the only two that didn't get much sleep last night." Abby informed Tony.
"Why didn't..." Tony began.
"That's none of your business." Abby replied and Tim's ears went a little red.
"I am glad it's Friday." Ziva said.
"Does that mean you want to spend the weekend together?" Tony inquired.
"You can make your weekend plans later, but right now I know a few people who need to get back to work if they like their jobs." Gibbs said from the doorway.
Abby, Tim, Tony and Ziva looked to see Gibbs standing the in the doorway. Tony and Ziva left for the elevator to go back up to the bullpen but Tim seemed a little reluctant to go.
He didn't want Tony to start picking on him again; he was just not in the mood to deal with it today.
"Can Timmy stay down here with me for a while?" Abby asked as if reading Tim's mind.
"Just make sure you get some work done and not just talk about baby names." Gibbs said with a smirk and headed for the elevator.
Once they heard the elevator doors close behind Gibbs, Tim turned to Abby.
"Thanks, but did you really have to tell Tony that we were awake most of the night? You didn't even bother to tell him we spent most of the time talking about the baby." Tim told her.
"I know, but we also did more than just talk about the baby. At least for now you can stay down here and keep the two of us company." Abby told him as she wrapped her arms around his neck and gave him a kiss on the lips.
It was a minute later when Tim pulled away.
"Abby, we can't do that here and you know it." Tim told her, because he could tell what she was thinking about.
"Actually, we could. I could seal the lab and we could go into my office." Abby suggested.
"Abs, as much as I want to...not here, okay," Tim asked.
After a minute they sat in their chairs and began to work, stealing glances at each other every now and then.
THE BULLPEN...
Ziva and Tony sat down at their desk; Gibbs was still downstairs with Abby and Tim.
"Hey, Ziva," Tony asked looking around and then looking over at her.
"What, Tony?" She asked not looking up from her paperwork.
"What do you think...Ow. Oh, hey boss." Tony said and this time Ziva did look up.
"It's none of your business what Abby and McGee do when they go home at night." Gibbs said walking over to his desk and getting to work on the files sitting there.
