Chapter 2: Don't stop, don't move

Once she was in the shower she began to sing. She was singing that song.

You know I'd fall apart without you
I don't know how you do what you do
'Cause everything that don't make sense about me
makes sense when I'm with you

Truly, she believed he made her the person she had become and she was glad he was, as she said before, in her life. Their friendship was more than a friendship but somehow still less than a relationship. But she wanted to change that and hopefully he did too. As Ziva was singing and going through all of this in her head, Tony was doing laundry. He had told her to throw her stuff in his hamper and that he would wash it for her. When he came along her clothes, he laughed. Always thought she was a thong girl, but no, she wore a Lace Trim Mini Cheekster Panty with a Jungle Floral print, very lacy which he liked, After that he saw her blouse, slacks and gorgeous push up he had ever seen with leopard print. She knew what he liked. Then he saw it, his white dress shirt with blood stain on it. He didn't know if he should tell her or not. That damn whiskey bottle. He knew he shouldn't have drank so much and then it happened. He threw that crystal, sparkling class against the wall and then the empty Jack bottle. When he looked down he saw blood on his hands and shirt. The glass…. When he came back to reality he just kept throwing clothes in the washer and laid that shirt to the side. One day… As he stood up to go and fold the other clothes in his room, he walked by that door. Her voice sparkling through that door. He listened…

'Cause I wanna wrap you up

Wanna kiss your lips

I wanna make you feel wanted

And I wanna call you mine

Wanna hold your hand forever

Wow, her voice was so graceful. It made chills go through his body. He stood there for a minute until the water stopped. When she emerged from that bathroom, wrapped in his white towel, still wet, she glistened. It took everything he had not to just go over to her and kiss her so hard and show her how much he loved her and would always love her, forever and ever. "Feel better?" he asked almost drooling. "Much." She noticed his stare and walked over to him and closed his
mouth. "You'll catch bugs" Why did she have to tease him all the time? "Are my underwear washed yet?" "No, sorry I just put them in. They should be done in about 15 min." he is watching her as he folds his clothes. She walks over to his dresser and pulls out a pair of his Black boxer briefs, the ones from Berlin. "Do you mind?" "Not at all" He smiles hi 1000x watt smile as she slips them on under her towel. She then turns around not facing him and slowly lets her towel drop. Why did she do this to him?! She was going to be the death of him. Then she took the tank top he had given her earlier and slid it on. "No Bra, ?" "Tony" turning around. "You do not realize how uncomfortable it is to sleep in those things!" she says while holding a pony tail holder in her mouth and putting up her curly wet hair. Next she puts the sweatpants that he laid out for her, on. She came and sat on the bed next to him and started folding his clothes with him when she finds a pair of women's Nike shorts and a juniors Nike tank top. "Tony who's are these?" as she holds them up. "Oh those are my great cousins'. They came to stay with me last weekend and they left them here. They left a couple of things. That's why I have so much more laundry to catch up on." "You have great cousins?" "Yeah they come by and stay with me some. CCs' parents, which one of them is my cousin, Vicent, are travel people for those places you know? And so she lives with Alex. They are great cousins. DiNozzos. On my dad's side. My Uncles kids kids. Alexs' parents are in the Navy, one which is my cousin, Valerio, so I watch them while they are deployed. Their names are Alessandra and Consetta but we call them Alex and CC. They are both thirteen." "Oh…." She looks down at the clothes in her hands and sighs. "What's wrong, Ziva?" "Nothing… Just I've always wanted kids and I don't know… just hearing you talk about them and how you watch them makes me want them even more…. But I guess when the time is right." Tony intertwines their hands. "Ziva, when the time is right and with the perfect person you will have gorgeous babies." She smiles and thinks You are the one, the perfect one.With that they finish folding and putting everything away and he climbs in bed and pats the spot next to him. First she's hesitant and bites her lip, "I wont bite!" they laugh. She slowly crawls in bed next to him and he embraces her in his arms up against his chest. They fall asleep in each other's embrace, warm and cozy under the blanket his mother made him when he was little and the sheets. For the first time since her father died, she slept in peace with no nightmares. It's funny how one person can make you feel so safe.
