Please R & R! Doesn't even take a minute ;) xx

"This is so clichéd," laughed Ziva when they pulled apart from each other. "Kissing in the rain just after the 'father' figure told us to stay apart." Tony smiled warmly and then threw his coat over her head, shielding her from the rain.

"You dry now?" Ziva nodded and she led him back to an empty bus stop where they snuggled against each other, their wet clothes causing goose bumps to erupt up their arms.

"What have you found out about Rachel?" Tony hugged Ziva closer and like penguins they warmed up together.

"She's pregnant and Rachel's pretty sure that Aaron was the father. John's still on that business trip and she plans to fool him by telling about her pregnancy a month later, so that he thinks that he's the father." Tony nodded seriously.

"That's certainly the safest thing to do, especially as Leighton has the tendency to act violently when angry. Ziva..." At the tender note in his voice Ziva looked up into his softened eyes. "If you're ever pregnant you would tell me, wouldn't you?" Ziva squeezed his hand and nodded.

"Of course I would Tony. Don't think I won't." After sharing that sweet moment the two returned back to business.

"What have you unearthed about John?" Tony leaned back and started to tell everything that he knew.

"Rachel was right about John's ex-wife. She did run away and they divorced, but it wasn't on adultery charges. John was beating Lydia...and the court video evidence to prove it." Ziva asked another question.

"When did it start? Or rather, when did they get divorced?" Tony brought out a photocopy of a court certificate, dated June 23rd of just one year ago. John had married Rachel only 2 months later.

"He was quick to back jump onto the wagon," mused Tony. "A little quick in my opinion. I think a visit to Lydia Leighton is now in order." Ziva nodded.

"I agree. And the rain's stopped, so let's go." If only they knew just what they were getting in to...
