Short Tiva Stories

Temper Tantrom

Tony and ziva are happily married, have a little girl and have a baby boy on the way. Ziva is 8 months pregnant. Kate, theirs first kid is 2 years old and if beginning to speak. "Kate, time for bed" ziva says as she walks into the living room where kate is playing with her 'My Little Ponies'. "Naa" kate babbles "kate, listen to your mummy" tony says as he walks over to her and takes a pony from the floor and puts it in the box. Kate screams and runs over to the box and picks the pony back out. "Kate!, no, its time for bed, you can play with them with aunt abby tomorrow while mummy and daddy work" ziva says as she struggles to bend down and pick all the ponies up. "Here honey, i'll do it" tony kindly says as he takes the ponya out of her hand. "NAAAAA" kate screams to her mum. "Kate!, don't ever scream like that to mummy again" tony says after slapping her on the back on the hand to show her no. (not in a violent way, its hard to explain).
Ziva walks off to the bedroom. Tony notices that she has a tear running down her cheek. He finishes off putting the ponys away whilst trying to keep and crying kate away from the box. "No kate!, now get to bed" tony shouts. Kate flops down on the floor and starts crying even more. "Right!" Tony says angrily. He picks kate up. Kate starts pounding her fists onto his back and screaming. "Don't hit daddy!" Tony says as he takes away her teddy. "NAAAAA, eddy" kate trys to say. "No" tony says and walks out the door. Kate flops on the floor again and starts to cry and hit her bed. Tony walks into his and zivas bedroom to see her lying in bed crying. "Honey, whats wrong?" Tony asked as he sits next to her. "Its partly the baby the stressing me out and why would she shout how she did to us?" Ziva said as she wiped away a tear. "She just wanted her ponys back but she couldn't have them so we had to show her that and teach her that she can't have everything" tony explained to a tearful ziva infront of him. "Where is she now?" Ziva asked "shes in her room haveing a temper tantrom, do you want to go in there with me and get her to say sorry?" Tony asked lovingly "ok, let me just wipe my eyes" ziva said as she slowly gets up. "I hope she isnt like this when we have the baby" ziva said from the bathroom. "I hope shes never like this again" tony replied "ok lets go" ziva came out the bathroom looking like she hadn't cried at all. Knock knock. Tony and ziva entered kates room. She was standing with her head resting on the bed asleep.
"I guess all that screaming and crying tired her out" ziva said. Tony walked up to kate, picked her up and tucked her into bed.
*the next morning*
Ziva and tony were awake and in the kitchen making breakfast. Then they heard the pitter patter of tiny feet making their way into the kitchen. "Muma, me sorwee" kate said as she tugged on zivas dressing gown. Ziva looked at tony. "I think you owe daddy an apology as well" ziva said to kate as she starred into her eyes. "Sorwee dada" kate said "thats ok, sweety" tony said. Kate ran into zivas legs and gave her a big hug and then she did the same to tony. Ziva gave kate a bowl of coco pops, kats slowly took them in the living room to eat. "Did you tell her to say that oe something?" Ziva whispered to tony "no, she did it all by herself" tony said as he hugged ziva from behind and kissed her cheek. "I have a feeling that she is going to be very helpful with the baby" ziva said as she turned her head to both theirs heads were facing. Tony nodded and caught her lips in a kiss.
