Prologue
Everyone (McGee, Tony, Abby, Ducky, Ziva, and Gibbs) were on their way to Ziva's house for dinner and a movie. Gibbs was driving and everyone is laughing and listening to music. "Alright were here." Said Gibbs as he pulled into the driveway to Ziva's apartment. "I'm just saying that in Disney movies the mother always die's" Tony said, trying to explain how Disney movies were not classics to Ziva and Abby. When they got to her door and Ziva turned the key to get inside everything changed.
A little boy with bright blue eyes and jet black hair was jumping up and down on Ziva's couch. "Umm, are you lost?" asked Ziva. The team looked just as confused as she did. He kept jumping. He was a small boy he looked about six years old and he was very skinny and small. The little boy got down and went into the kitchen where the phone was and dialed a number. The team just stood there. He walked up to Ziva and handed her the phone. She looked at the team and they just shrugged. She took it and put it to her phone. On the other line she heard her father. "Ziva, Motek, I am guessing you met Zane?" Ziva told her team to go inside and make themselves comfortable, Zane ran into another room. "Yes. Who is he and why is he here?" she asked her father. "You will have to keep him for a while Ziva, he is a part of mossad, the details of why he is there are classified. He doesn't even know why he is there. But you have to be careful with him; he was at Saleems camp in Somalia." Ziva froze and took a breath. "And?" she asked. "You can't touch him…well you can but he is sensitive to touch, he doesn't like to eat but you must make him. He broke in that camp Ziva.
"You just have to watch him for little over a month. Make him trust you it is hard for him. Goodbye, Motek." Her father hung up. Tony was first to speak. "Who's the kiddo?" The whole team had their eyes on her. "He is… a little boy from Somalia; they need me to watch him for a month or so, other than that I did not get a lot of information on him." She shrugged. "Well let's have dinner!" Abby still hadn't lost her enthusiasm. "Where is he, first." Asked Ziva. Gibbs pointed toward the spare room. "He locked himself in there." "I say we leave him alone" said Tony. Everyone agreed so they continued to have a fun night, they watched movies and ate dinner had ice-cream, listened to music. By the time they were done it was around 0200 in the morning. They all thanked Ziva and wished her good luck.
Tony was last to leave. "This reminds me of a movie" he sounded stoned. Ziva laughed and pushed him out the door. "Goodnight Tony." She heard something stir in the spare room and remembered about the kid. God, I hope he didn't break anything. She thought. She picked the lock on the door and saw the kid on the floor. Scared stiff. He had knocked over the lamp and it woke him up, or that's what it looked like. Ziva didn't know how to handle him she never was good with kids. "Uh, are you hungry?" Zane looked up at her and shook his head. "C'mon kid you have to eat. Please." He still shook his head. Ziva sighed. "You're not gonna make this easy are you?" The kid looked so tired that he was swaying back and forth on the floor. "You need to sleep." Zane looked at her. "I can't they'll come the bad people they will hit me." His voice was so small, he was so scared. Ziva had felt the same way too. "No one is going to hurt you, Zane." He was fighting the losing battle with his eyelids. Ziva bent down and gently and slowly picked him up. He struggled for a couple of minutes before settling down. She placed him down on the bed. "I won't let anyone hurt you." He nodded.
Ziva decided against turning off the light because she didn't like it when she came back. She went out on the couch and turned on the T.V to watch a movie. Tony is getting to me. She thought.
She was putting in her second movie. When she heard a ruffle of a body. She looked over her shoulder to the hallway, and saw Zane laying there on the floor. She remembered how Tony, Gibbs, and Abby had always made her feel better when she was scared from Somalia. "Zane come here." He layed there for a moment before slowly getting up and walking over to the couch. He was shaking. Probably a nightmare. She scooted over a little bit. "Come lay down." Zane shook his head. "I do not ask for help." He said with fear. Ziva smiled. "You need it." And with that he crawled in next to Ziva and she wrapped her arms around him as he fell asleep. She fell asleep after he did with the T.V on.
She woke up the next morning feeling uncomfortable, having slept on the couch all night. Zane was still asleep. So she slowly got up trying not to wake him. She made some coffee and toast. She also turned down the television so that the kid could sleep better. She wondered if he would trust her better. But he most likely was still scared of everything that moved with a sound other than her. She wondered how she could get him to work without a spaz attack.
