Yes, you where right. I liked it... A LOT! Such a beautiful tag to this beautiful moment! This is a new connection for them, one that makes them realize what they actually mean to each other. No it wasn't just sex...it was indeed making love. Thank for this beautiful and sweet bedtime story!

it's awesome how you put in words what I can't but think anyway. Today I'm a mess, not only because of NCIS and it kind of really hit my nerves - if this even is a phrase - and I cried. I love how they're not letting go when McGee's walking in and how they all know what is really going on but saying nothing- because there is nothing to say about it.
I love it, so much.

Gah! what a way to top off this episode - I love the sweetness, the tenderness, the openess, the willingness. I love that they spent what seemed like hours making love not caring that McGee and Abby were in the next room because for them is was only about each other.

You are the Queen of Smut (and I mean that in the most loving way possible), and I now crown you Queen of Romance - because this was romance - this was love - this was Tiva!

I loved this. A lot. I know the show tried to tell us that Ziva and McGee are partners, but that's just silly. Tony and Ziva have been partners for five years. They know what the other thinks, feels, and how the other reacts physically to just about any situation. I loved the aspect of last night's episode in which Tony comforted an obviously devastated Ziva. She wasn't upset about Franks dying so much as she was upset about the people around her dying, most of all those she's come to think of as family.

So Tony comforting Ziva in this chapter made complete and total sense. He's taking care of her when she's not quite up to the challenge and she's doing the same thing. That's what partners do. I also enjoyed immensely the fact that McGee just let it go.

Thanks so much for sharing. It was a pleasure to read.

This was good. As much as I loved it, I had a hard time with Ziva in the elevator scene. But this whole series of yours fills in the blanks very perfectly.
