Ziva's POV

"You're- you're pregnant?" he asked in disbelief.

I stopped and stood in silence, he was not supposed to find out like this.

"I-I... yes," I stuttered.

His mouth moved but nothing came out.

"W-well this is great... Right? I mean... You're going to have a baby!"

His eyes lit up and he smiled.

I slowly started to smile myself, I didn't think he would be happy about this.

My eyes filled with tears and he gave me a tight hug.

He pulled me back and looked me in the eyes still smiling big.

"You're going to have a kid!" he exclaimed, his eyes starting to tear up a bit too.

I laughed and nodded, tears streaming down my face.

He pulled me in for a kiss but quickly pulled away.

His face turned serious and he said slowly, "it is... Mine... Right?"

I started to laugh and cry more tears of joy, "of course it's yours Tony."

He grinned and grabbed ahold of my neck, sharing a long meaningful kiss.

"N-now what?" I asked.

He stopped and his face became more serious.

"I don't know..." he said slowly. "I got Zuri when she was 3, I wasn't there when she was born."

My stomach flipped and I felt suddenly sick.

"What are we going to do?" I asked, tears of fear pushing the last of the joy out of my eyes.

He saw my sudden change of heart and shook his head, "Ziva I promise you, we will be okay. We might not know what we're doing right now and to be honest I'm scared as hell but Zi... We're going to have another kid. You'll give birth to a child, and I'll be there every step of the way."

That calmed me, him being there for me.

I nodded and wiped away my tears.

He brought me in for another hug, giving me a kiss on the head.

"You should get some sleep," he said, looking down at me.

He was right, I had ran over 3 miles and I was exhausted.

He grabbed ahold of my hand and we walked into our bedroom.

Tony's POV

I opened my eyes to see Ziva's head peacefully lying against me with one of my arms wrapped around her.

I smiled at the sight of her next to me but then suddenly realized the events of last night.

Honestly I was terrified but I knew showing that in front of Ziva would scare the hell out of her.

I mean I was going to be a dad, not adopt a daughter when they're 3, actually raise a kid from the beginning.

Nothing against Zuri, I love her and would do anything for her.

I shook my head, I needed to be strong for Ziva.

I quietly got out of bed and entered the kitchen.

Zuri was sitting at the table eating Cheerios.

"Good morning sweetie," I said, giving her a kiss on the cheek.

"I made you breakfast Daddy!" she exclaimed, pointing to the bowl of Cheerios next to her.

"Wow, look at you being all grown up!" I exclaimed sitting down in my assigned spot.

"What are we going to do today Daddy?" she asked.

"I don't know, what would you like to do?" I replied.

"Well Uncle Gibbs called, he said you had to call him right away."

"How long ago was that?" I asked.

"A while ago," she replied.

I jumped up and dialed Gibbs number.

"Where the hell have you been?" he barked.

"Good morning to you too boss," I mumbled. "Zuri didn't tell me you called, what's wrong?"

"Abby is gone and Palmer almost died."

My heart skipped a beat, wow I missed a lot.

"Where are you?"

"Hospital," he said disconnecting the line.

"What's wrong Daddy?" Zuri asked me.

"Get dressed honey, we have to go."

Within 30 minutes we rushed into the hospital and asked the lady at the front desk for where Palmer was.

"Second floor room 118," she replied.

In the elevator Zuri continued to ask me what was wrong.

"Daddy!" she complained. "Why won't you tell me?"

I stayed silent and looked straight ahead.

Ziva picked her up as the doors opened.

We ran through the halls until we found room 118.

I peaked in the door to see a stitched up Palmer, crying Breena, and panicked McGee.

I shut the door, I didn't want Zuri to see this.

"Zuri honey can you wait out here?" I asked.

"I don't want to stay out here," she said looking terrified by the passing sick strangers.

Ziva picked her up and we entered the room.

McGee ran up to us, I had never seen him so afraid.

"She's gone... Abby's gone," he fumbled.

Wow okay well expect a huge delay with fanfic.

Ziva's farewell... Tiva....

Point is the last thing that will be on my mind for a while is fanfic.

It'll definitely be up by the weekend tho.
