Author's Note - Going to try and update at least once a week. Sorry I haven't updated, but I have violin lessons every Wednesday.
Once Tony stopped crying they went back to the film but Ziva couldn't concentrate. Whenever she tried to watch, she found her self, eyes glazed over, in deep thought. Only problem was, she could never remember what she was thinking. Something was troubling her and until she knew what, she was helpless.
That night after Tony had left, Ziva found herself lying awake. The time was now 2am and she still hadn't slept a wink. She was thinking about Tony. What he had said had touched a nerve, awakened something inside of her. Something that had been dormant since the day she was born.
Eventually, after Ziva had finally gotten some sleep, it was morning and as the sun rose over the state of Virginia, Ziva was already up and had just finished her morning run as the phone rang. It was Tony.
"I wanted to call and tell you that I meant what I said last night and that it wasn't something I'd said in a drunken haze. It really meant something to me and I hope it meant something to you." Tony sounded like he had been crying.
"It did mean something but I just can't do this." Ziva regretted those words as soon as she said them but she knew it was for the better.
"Oh, OK. I understand." there was something about his voice that hit Ziva.
"Please Tony, just listen to-" he cut her off.
"It's fine! I'll see you at work."
Work that day was very awkward and they were both happy to be out of the office. Gibbs must have sensed that something was off between them and avoided putting them together, something they both were grateful for. At the end of the day as they both headed home, Ziva realised what had been on her mind. It was Tony. She knew that the kiss had meant something but it had just hit her that it had meant more than she first thought.
Suddenly a loud crash released her from her thoughts. She looked around, slightly dazed by what had happened. There was a sharp pain in her head and legs. As the situation slowly became clear she could hear voices. She felt herself sink into oblivion, the voice fading with every second.
Author's Note - Hahaha! Aren't i mean leaving it as a cliff hanger!
