Renovation Time

Chapter 6

~Tony's pov~

They walked pass a row of parket. He watched Ziva's hands strike over the wood of one of them. She seemed to like it, she could only look at that one. Then an employee walked over to them. 'Could I help you with your choice?' He looked back to Ziva and the parket. 'I think we made a choice already, didn't we, Ziva?' She looked up, surprised. 'It's your room, not mine!' He smiled at her.

'I kinda like that one,' he said, pointing at the one she liked. She smiled, making his knees week. She had such a wonderful smile!

He left Ziva alone to pay for the parket and get it into his cat, but when he got back, she was talking to a man. He overheard there conversation: 'Wow, you're a beauty!' the man said with a dirty smile. 'Thank you,' she said, an annoyed overtone in her voice. Ziva tried to walk away, but the man grabbed her arm.

Tony pinched his nose bridge. That man had to be stupid! He quickly walked over to Ziva, who was now looking angrily at the man. He was too late.

She pulled her arm back and grabbed the man's arm, turned around (with her back towards the man) and pulled him over her shoulder, on the floor. The man was crying out from the pain, and Ziva bend over him. 'If you EVER touch me again, I swear I will kill you!' she hissed.

Tony walked over, a grin on his face. 'You heard the lady! Get out of here, before it's too late.' The man quickly got up and stumbled away. Tony looked at Ziva, who now was grinning.

Then he started to laugh and offered his arm to her, who, to his surprise, took it, laughing too. And together they walked to the car, and drove back to his house.
