Tiva and Densi (Caskett) ~ Protection.

Part 18, Preperation

*Ziva POV*

I'm so excited to see Kate again, it is way too long since I've seen her. I walk to the dinner room and together we have breakfast/lunch. "Who did you call Ziva?" "Well Rick Castle is coming here to give you three a tour through New York while I can catch up with one of my best friends Kate." "You mean Richard Castle the writer?" Kensi asks and I laugh. "Yes I mean him, why?" "I love his books and read them all they are really good books." "They are indeed amazing! But you need to be at his loft at 01:00 PM and Kate will be here at 01:00 PM. I gave Tony the address and they will be staying in the Hamptons as well for the week. Rick has a house here as well so he will come here together with you guys." "Well the dinner was great Ziva, but I guess we need to make us ready." "Thank you Deeks. And you really should, you guys have to leave in half a hour."

*01:00 PM*

Kensi, Deeks and Tony are already gone for a hour and it's almost 01:00 PM. I sit on the couch watching the blind side. It's almost finished when I hear a knock on the door. I put the film on pause and walk to the door to open it. When I open the door Kate is standing there with a box of chocolate. We both have a big smile on our face and give each other a hug. "Ziva you really look amazing! I really missed our conversations, we really need to talk with each other way more times." "Thank you and you look great, no you look stunning Kate. I missed them as well and hope we can talk more with each other in the future."

"Well how much time do we have to get everything done you want?" "Well they will be back at 04:00 PM so we can get ready for tonight. I still need to watch the last 10 minutes of the blind side, make yourself at home. I hope you still know where everything is?" Kate laughs and answers, "I know exactly where everything is standing, how could I forget."

*1 hour later*

"We really should start, we'll talk farther another time this week." I say and smile. "Yes we should, I still need to make dinner and everything for Castle and me, I want to surprise him with a dinner and then tell him I'm pregnant." "That is a great idea, I'll help you if we are quick." "Thank you so much Ziva and could you hold Castle here till 06:00 PM so I can get ready as well?" "Of course we have to leave at 6:30 PM." It is beautiful weather and Kate and I are wearing both a jeans short with a white tank top.

"Could you get a..?" "A picnic blanket, of course on my way." "We still have the same minds." I say and we both laugh. "I don't know how it's possible, but I only got it with you and Castle." "You two are so cute together!" "You four should come over for dinner tomorrow, then I can meet your boyfriend and Deeks and Kensi right?" "Yes Deeks and Kensi are their names. But that would be great, the day after tomorrow I'll come alone and we can catch up with the three of us." "I think Rick would love to catch up with you again." I smile and say, "But let's finish this and then we can go grocery shopping for your dinner." We grab everything we need and walk to the beach to set everything up for tonight. After that we go grocery shopping and start cooking dinner in their house in the Hamptons. When the clock says 03:50 PM I go back to my house and start cleaning the house a bit and doing the wash till they get back.
