In this universe, Kelly Gibbs is still alive and this is set several years down the track after my other story A Different road (Which I will be updating soon, I have just got to figure out a few things). You dont really have to read that story but feel free to do so! Main thing you need to know. Kelly is alive. And Kelly is with Callen (NCISLA.) This isnt really a crossover because it just has Callen in it. Oh and DiNozzo had a really BIG thing for Kelly but thats all sorted now.
Not quite sure how long after this is set but you can estimate that yourselves. How long does it take to get over someone you love and find that someone who has been there all along?
ALSO. Im not to sure on traditions. I just wrote it as it came to me. So there really isnt any mention of traditions or anything just their wedding day and how I pictured it. Hope thats ok.
Oh and I DONT OWN ANYTHING! Not NCIS, not nothing. Just me and my imagination going crazy over this hiatus! Its only been two weeks!

That quote had gotten him here. He lived by any things, many rules, many mistakes and moving forward from everything had gotten him to where he is today. He rolled over and smiled at the sunlight shining through the room. It was meant to rain today, in fact it was meant to rain all week. He hopped off the couch, stretching all his muscles, he never knew why that was his favourite sleeping spot in this place. He chuckled at the empty mattress beside him and walked to find his missing Best Man.
Yes that's right people. Tony DiNozzo was finally tying the knot.
He laughed at the memories of them telling their friends they were getting married. A few weren't shocked at all but some couldn't pick their jaws off the floor.
"Thought you were gonna sleep through the day.' Tony heard the chuckle and descended the stairs.
"And miss the site of the most beautiful person in the world wearing a white dress and saying 'I do' commit to us for the rest of our lives? No way in hell!" He smiled. "What is the time anyway?"
"0730. Even early for you." Gibbs chuckled to himself.
"Very funny. Now what are you building down here?" Tony ran his hands over the new lumber being shaped and cut.
Gibbs put down the saw and started packing away a few things. "Nothin'." He packed away the last object and headed towards the stairs leaving Tony looking over the timber. "You comin'? McGee, Callen and Kelly are already at the house."
"Let the fun begin." Tony smiled and followed his Best Man up the stairs.
Yes, he had chosen Leroy Jethro Gibbs to be his best man. Tim just didn't fit that bill and well Palmer? No definitely not. The autopsy gerlim was a good friend, not that he was ever going to let that out but Gibbs. Gibbs was his boss, friend and a man he had great respect for even though it might not seem like it, most of the time. Then there was Kelly. It just didn't fit. And funny enough Gibbs had said yes but only on one condition.
"So I'm still not allowed to make any wedding jokes yet? It could be my wedding gift?" Tony stopped only inches from where Gibbs had stopped and turned.
"I already got your wedding gift. Remember." Gibbs smirked at Tony discomfort and continued to the front door.
If he couldn't make ANY wedding jokes or comments about failed marriages on Gibbs part, this was going to be a very long and hard day keeping his trap shut.
They reached the house in record time. As Gibbs had said McGee, Kelly and Callen were here along with a few more friends.
"Why didn't I opt to help the bride today." Kelly grumbled and wiped her paintbrush for an excess pain and continued painting.
"Because Abby had that contract signed ages ago." Gibbs smiled at his daughter. "Nice work kiddo." He admired the work they had gotten done in only an hour.
"Thanks dad, I learnt from the best." She winked and flicked her paintbrush in her fathers direction getting a few white splotches on his jumper and face. She giggled.
"Funny huh?" He raised an eyebrow and saw kelly's face drop along with her paintbrush.
Next second they were sprinting around the yard and everyone popped their heads out to see what all the shrieking and giggling was about.
"Dad, dad, dad, stop!" She laughed, her face now had nice white smear marks on them and her old NIS hoodie wasn't so grey as more poker dotted.
"Hey! Weddings un under 8 hours and we still have the front to paint and back to get ready." To ny shouted. Wow he sounded like a silver haired fox. He saw both the Gibbs' raise their eyebrows and he smirked.
"You've rubbed off on him too much." Kelly playfully shoved her dad and pushed herself up. "Come Tony, i wanna show you something." She smiled and grabbed his hand even though hers was covered in wet paint.
They walked up the front steps onto the now white veranda and opened the front door. The house was huge. Just why he picked it. To their left was a large family room which followed on to the kitchen. On their right was a little but not that small front room with the morning sun shining it. As they walked further down the hallway split. To the right was the bathroom, toilet, laundry which went out to the side door where the washing line was. They kept walking down the house passing three bedrooms. The master was on their left and two smaller rooms was on their right. Finally they reached the back veranda.
Tony opened the door and was shocked to see the tables and the tent frames up. He squeezed Kelly's hand tighter as a silent thank you. She dropped his hand as he walked out and took everything in. He walked around the tables which still needed to be dressed.
"Tony."
Kelly brought him out of his trance and he quickly wiped a tear that was building at the corner of his eye.
Kelly noticed and walked up to him wrapping her arm around his waist. Years ago that would've sent his feelings swimming but now he just kissed the top of her head and squeezed his best friend closer.
"Was there a point to bringing me to the present?" he asked.
Kelly shrugged."Didnt want you to completely lose it." She smiled and Tony looked down at her.
"Just cant believe this is happening." He smiled and it reached every corner of his face and went straight to his heart.
"Its happening even if you two stand here all day." Gibbs walked past them putting chairs with the tables.
Tony and Kelly let go and helped him. Next was the sheet. Everyone helped pulling it over and securing it in place. It was starting to look better and better.
The hours passed and the painting was finished and drying. The backyard was all finished. Tables were set, little lanterns were hanging front the gazebo, a red carpet had been laid front the bottom step to the gazebo and the caterers had arrived.
"Time for someone to start getting ready." Kelly smiled at Tony sitting on the couch with the boys.
"What about you?" Gibbs looked up at his daughter still covered in paint. "Can't go like that to Zi's apartment.
"True. I am taking a shower here and then heading off." Her face paled. "The hot water has been installed right?!" She saw the boys laugh and waved them off heading for the bathroom.
Tony ran his hand through his hair. She was right. Only three hours til they all had to be at the hall. He pushed himself up and walked to the back door. Everything was set. He walked to the bedroom and looked down at his suit. Nice and sharp. Ziva had after all picked it out. He laughed recalling their conversation.
"If you picked my suit shouldn't I have at least some input into your dress?"
She looked at him and he just smiled.
"Never thought it would be you marrying first." Tim spoke from the doorway.
Tony turned and smirked. "Yeah, well you have the ring."
"For once Tony. Today is all about you." McGee looked at his friend and saw him shake his head.
"No." He smiled. "Today is all about her."
Ziva walked out of her apartment at 1500. Kelly was standing beside the Astin Martin and Abby was behind her helping with her dress.
"God you look amazing!" Kelly squealed and clapped her hands.
The girls helped her into the DB5 and shut the door. They quickly hopped into Kelly's car and followed the Astin to the hall.
The next half an hour went by in a flash. She was at the fall. She set eyes on her groom with her 'father' beside her walking her down the isle. It was then that she recognised the song. She smiled. It felt like a thousand years.
Gibbs pressed his lips to her hand and passed it to Tony who gladly accepted it. He couldn't resist kissing her on the forehead as well before stepping aside.
"Don't stuff it up." He whispered to Tony.
"Only planning on doing this once." Tony said under his breath but felt a slight sting to that back of his head and heard a few chuckles from the audience and a giggle from the lady in front of him. Thats when he looked her completely up and down and his heart melted. He was only looking into her eyes as she walked towards him down the aisle but now. He was almost weak at the knees. Her dress was simple and sexy and oh so Ziva.
"Glad you picked the dress." He said only for her ears and they both laughed.
As the ceremony went on they didn't look at anyone else but them. Now it came to the vows. Neither of them had written anything down. They both agreed on that but now Tony was lost for words.
"Zi, Ziva I can not explain how amazing, how beautiful are you to me. I promise to love you for eternity. I promise to look after you even when you will kick my ass." He had to put in a little humour. It was Tony DiNozzo Jr after all. "I will love you, take care or you and do whatever you want me to every second of everyday. You are my soul and I am never letting you go." They couldn't help it. Tony leaned in and Ziva kissed him until they heard a throat being cleared.
"Not yet guys." Abby whispered and everyone smiled. "Even Gibbs knows that." That comment made everyone laugh and Gibbs just stare at his girl who just smiled back at him.
It was Ziva's turn. How could she follow that?
Hehehe did you like? More is to come, obviously. Thinking it will last about 4 maybe 5 chapters. Depends how far my muse goes.
Review would be nice :)
