A/N: So I didn't like Chapter Two. The only logical thing to do was re-do it. Yay.
Disclamier: I didn't get NCIS For christmas. I got a lot of other things though- Including a Calligraphy set. So it's okay.

It didn't matter that Gibbs had been driving faster than he ever had before, It still wasn't enough. Ziva was smart- really smart. She'd managed to persuade her nurse to call them exactly four hours after she'd given birth. Of course she was gone by the time they arrived and they couldn't help but be confused as to why. It was like she wanted them to find her but also wanted to make sure they stayed away for good. It was hitting Tony hard ; Partly because she was his partner and partly because he loved her but also because she'd left a note saying sorry and that their daughters name was Talia. He was covering up the hurt that Ziva had fled, taking his daughter by seeming angry. The first thing he'd done when they'd gotten back to NCIS was yell at Abby- Who'd rushed to greet them with hugs. She'd blinked at first startled as he blamed her for all sorts of things that she wasn't responsible for, then she turned and ran, tears in her eyes. Nobody had spoken to him since then. Not even Gibbs, who'd given him a disapproving look and a sigh before rushing to calm Abby down. Even when he'd returned to the bull pen he wouldn't say anything although his hand kept moving towards the drawer that held his gun; almost as if he was tempted to shoot him or hit him with it for an even more painful 'Gibbs slap'.
"You're a idiot". The words broke the silence and Tony couldn't help but look up; startled because he hadn't actually expected Gibbs to speak to him. Not after what he'd done to Abby. "You can't be angry at us because of what Ziva did. You can't punish us because you miss her and you want her back"
Tony glared at the older man he'd come to view as a dad. "She left me Gibbs. She took our daughter and LEFT ME!"
Gibbs' face was impassive. He showed no sign that he was aware of the words that Tony was shouting at him. He simply stood and started heading to Jenny's office. "Well maybe you should stop yelling and try to get them back" he called over his shoulder.

While NCIS seemed to be descending into a bubbling pit of drama, the source of it all was blissfully unaware. She sank into the sofa, The baby in her arms making a few noises but mostly staying quiet. It was as if the events of the day had tired them both out. Ziva hummed quietly in a attempt to distract herself from the feeling of guilt rising inside her. "Maybe having the nurse call them was out of order" She mumbled. "I should have just left it" The baby in her arms started crying and Ziva shook herself out of her thoughts. She would think about her actions later. She couldn't forget her responsiblites. She had her daughter to look after.
