Here is your update for "Pyramid." I was pretty sure I wasn't going to do it because the season finale angered me (due to the disruption of Tiva), but I really want reviews in my e- mail, so here you go. Also, it may be more of a Forget Agent Barrett and Mr. Miami mix.
Ziva watched as Tony came down from the director's office. He looked worried, and she was guessing it had to deal with the file her partner held in his hand.
"What is wrong?" Ziva asked as Tony came to his seat.
"Oh, nothing, Agent Vance just irks me that's all." Tony answered. There was a moment of silence between them.
"Hey, Ziva?" Tony asked.
"Yes?" She said.
"How did your lunch with Ray go?"
"Fine." Ziva sighed. She hoped he had not picked up on her sighing, she did not want to talk about him anymore today.
"You sound upset. What's wrong?" Tony asked, concern lacing his voice.
"This." Ziva said throwing a red box at his face. Tony caught it and inspected it for a moment.
"He proposed." Tony stated as he opened the box and saw nothing inside. Ziva scoffed.
"No." Ziva said. "He promised."
"Promised?" Tony asked.
"Yes, what he promised exactly, I do not know. It does not matter anyway, I am pretty sure he will not be around much longer." Ziva stated.
"You can't kill him Zi. You will be put in jail, and if you go to jail, we'll have to bail you out. Besides, I don't think the court will let you off for killing someone who left for work." Tony said, trying to make her smile. She smiled, a little.
"See," Tony said, "I knew I could do it."
"Yes, Tony, you can make me smile. Bravo." Ziva said. "It must be nice having Agent Barrett so close." Ziva told him, hoping he did not hear the jealousy in her voice.
"Yeah, I guess." Tony said.
"You do not like that she is still in D.C.?" Ziva asked. "I would love to be in a relationship that." Ziva told him as he threw Ray's box back to her her. "No empty promises." She added to herself as she turned the box around in her hand.
"I just don't know how I feel about her anymore." Tony said. "I'm sick of people keeping secrets." He added.
"So am I." Ziva agreed. The agents stared at each other for a while, wishing they could tell the other how they felt. Their lives had been filled with so many devestating events the past couple weeks, neither knew how to deal with the aftermath.
"Ziva." Tony said breaking the silence
"Yes?" She asked.
"Promise me, no matter what, if something happens over the next year that you do not like, that you will be honest with me and tell me how you feel." He said. Tony could tell sadness was in his voice as he spoke. He did not want to hurt her, but at the moment, he could not tell her about his mission. He felt like he was Tony DiNardo all over again, only this time, Michael Rivkin had come along for the ride.
Ziva stared at him a long minute before saying, "Yes, as long as you leave me no empty promises." The two agents smiled at each other before going back to work. A few hours later, Tony and Ziva were in their cars driving home, each feeling as if a part of their heart was missing, and could possibly never be replaced.
