Prompt: Handing out candy
When he twisted the door knob and pushed nothing happened. Tony briefly inspected the locked door, then rang the doorbell as if personally offended.
The footsteps he heard approaching sounded familiar, but decidedly un-Gibbs like. When the door swung open he was surprised at the sight of Ziva, in full witch costume.
She looked just as surprised to see him, and sheepishly pulled the very prominent fake nose down, letting it dangle under her chin by its strap. "Tony, what are you doing here?"
He held up an NCIS folder. "What are you doing here, witch David?"
"Abby invited me."
"Abby invited you to Gibbs'?"
"Yes, she wanted me to get the full Halloween experience, said that would not happen at my apartment."
"Because of all the muggings and shootings that happen there," he said flatly, as he pushed past her into the hallway. He pointed at the front door with the folder. "Why was the door locked?"
Ziva frowned. "You have been telling me all week that all the crazies come out at Halloween."
"That's the thing you decided to listen to? Not 'the lieutenant is high on meth and stabbed three people already, stay away from him'?"
Ziva looked at him defiantly. "He did not stab me."
"Then why did Ducky have to patch you up?"
"It was a scratch."
He glanced at her injured left arm, fully covered by the black velvet robe sleeve. "You needed eight stitches."
Abby emerged from the kitchen holding a bag of small candy bars. "Tony," she said cheerfully, "I thought I heard bickering."
She held up the bag to Ziva. "These are the good ones".
Ziva smiled and held out the plastic cauldron to be filled.
"Doesn't Ziva look great? It's the costume I wore three years ago at the office party."
Tony nodded, then looked Abby up and down. "When are you going to put on your costume?"
Abby smacked him on the arm, eliciting a yelp. "I am a catgirl." She pointed at the top of her head, where she had fashioned two cat-like ears with her hair.
"Ha, obviously," he said, convinced she had looked like this all day.
"Anyway," Abby said linking her arm in his, "Ziva's on candy duty."
"Don't mind if I do," Tony said, reaching for one of the candy bars.
Ziva slapped his hand away at lightning speed. "You are not a child, Tony."
He held his hand away from her like a wounded animal. "You called me a child yesterday."
"You were shooting spitballs at me."
He raised his eyebrows. "Exactly."
Ziva stared at him blankly, then held out her cauldron reluctantly.
Looking very smug he grabbed a candy bar.
"Do you always get your way, DiNozzo?" Ziva asked as she watched him tear away the wrapper and practically inhale the chocolatey goodness.
"No," he replied, taking a moment to run his tongue over his teeth to remove the stickiness, while looking her up and down. "If I did you'd be dressed as a sexy-"
The unexpected head slap made him wince and wonder why he had come here in the first place.
He met Gibbs' steely blue gaze, and handed over the work file wordlessly.
Gibbs looked at him, one corner of his mouth creeping up. "Gonna need a costume."
Tony's eyes went wide with fear as Abby squealed in his ear, and dragged him down the hallway.
