Ziva returns to DC, but fitting back into the life she chose to leave is more difficult than she expects.

Daily drabble challenge. Tiva

Prompt: Someone tries to get into the wrong apartment when drunk. Tiva AU

Tony and Ziva have been falling in love from the moment they met. That path has not been straight, nor narrow, nor entirely romantic. Ten years later, they have walked through the fire and come out the other side. Based on the song Falling Slowly from the musical Once.

Tony runs across Ziva in Georgetown about a year after she left for Israel. He discovers that she's been home in DC for six months, but that secret pales in comparison to the reason she's been hiding herself away.

Some girls, far younger than she, working on the same mission project she was somehow convince Ziva to abandon what they dubbed her 'nun-like' lifestyle for just a little while, and to come out with them in Tel Aviv. There she runs across Tony, and they have a lot to talk about. Post PPF One shot

Tag to episode 10x23 'Double Blind' Tony and Ziva discuss the elephant in the room. But even as she tries to explain, she's not sure she can fix it this time.

Tony is kidnapped, and he's sure this time no one is coming to his rescue. "You have been in this position before, Agent DiNozzo?" "Couple times. The last accommodations were much nicer though. Warm, airy, bright. A little less toxic mold in the air and a little more dust. And don't get me started on the chair."

She's been gone for some time, but the last thing she wants is for him to give up.

An AU of 6.01, 'Last Man Standing.' "She shook her head. "You misunderstand. My father does not know I am here. Nor does Mossad. We were only informed in case there were dire circumstances. We are not supposed to get involved.""

Tag to episode 11x05 "Once A Crook" "I see you everywhere. In the bullpen, at crime scenes, at the coffee shop, the grocery store and you're not there. It's always the same thing. Now I've spiraled so far down I'm talking to you and you're not even here." Tiva

It's Tony and Ziva's wedding day, and though their relationship is somewhat unconventional, they're trying to keep some traditions intact.

Tag to 11x02 promo. "Everything in our life has tried to keep us apart. Everything. But I love you," his voice cracked as he began to tear up, defeat laced throughout his form. "And it just doesn't seem like enough, you know? Love doesn't seem like a strong enough word. It's so much more than that. But here we are, and so much more than love can't even keep us together."

Tony and Ziva are childhood best friends. For better, for worse, they always have each other's backs. Childhood AU

Ziva sneaks out of her hospital room to visit an injured Tony after the crash. Tag to Berlin. Tiva

"She could not allow more harm to befall him. She would have to tell him that she didn't want him, that she didn't feel the same way. The mere thought of rejecting him so brought tears to her eyes, because she knew in her heart despite her very best efforts, she would always be his." Post Berlin Tiva

"The time for honesty had come. It was the least she could do for him after the way she had treated him. Hiding her mission from him was a mistake, but hiding her heart from him would be an even bigger one." Tag to 'Berlin.' Kind of a companion piece to 'Up In The Air.'

"The last time you were sneaking around behind our backs and I tried to protect you without your consent, we both ended up suicidal in the desert." Set between Chasing Ghosts and Berlin.
