Ziva's P.O.V
1 day later
I stepped off the plane after my 12-hour flight from Germany, where I had to transfer flights and was blinded by the sunlight, and overwhelmed by the heat, I guess I was used to the American weather. I took of my jacket and tucked it in my bag, as I grabbed my sunglasses and shoved them on my face.
I looked round and spotted the black SUV parked in the corner of the airfield. I sighed and walked over to it. I climbed in the car and buckled my seatbelt, as I placed my head to rest on top of my hand, which was leaned against the door.
"Good afternoon noon Ms David" The driver spoke in a heavy Hebrew accent.
I mumbled a small response to him as I turned my head to look out the window as the city I had grew up in was a blur through the window as the driver swung the car round a sharp left.
We finally turned into the family home, the place where I spent my childhood as the car came to an abrupt halt. I stepped out of the car and onto the gravel drive and walked up to the large white door as I prepared myself for what was about to come.
I opened the door to my fathers dark burgundy study and walked in.
"Ziva, shalom my daughter" Eli David greeted
"Shalom Eli" I spoke back, refusing to call him my father as he was no longer any relation to me.
He rose to hug me as I stiffened when he touched me.
He sat back down and faced me.
"Your Aunt Nettie, she sadly passed away a week ago from a heart attack" Eli spoke
I sighed and rubbed my face with my hand. Aunt Nettie was the only one I still kept in touch with and her death was a big loss for me. I had only spoke to her 3 weeks ago, she was checking how my 'love life' was doing, safe to say it was doing well.
"When is her funeral?" I spoke up
"4 days time" He replied
"Then why do I need to stay here for 10 extra days?" I asked
"Ziva you need to honor your family, give thanks to Nettie and so on" Eli returned
I sighed and nodded I picked up my hand luggage and walked up the marble staircase and up through to my childhood bedroom.
As the door swung open I inhaled the sent of clean linen and noticed that someone must of brought my suitcase up, since it was next to my bed.
My bed had cream and white sheets on and as I looked last my bed the curtains wafted in the breeze since the window was open, airing the room out.
I went over and sat down on my bed. I placed my head in my hands and let a big breath out. I then dug out my cell from my jeans pocket and checked my messages.
1 missed call & 1 new message
I felt a tug at my heart knowing exactly who there from. I click open on the message as my eyes ran over the words
Hey Zi, it's me. Just wondering if you've landed safely. I hope you have a nice time. Well not a nice time since your going to a funeral, but ya no all the same. I really really miss you already Zi and it's only been 1 day. Please hurry back if you can, please. I really love you Zi with all my heart
Tony
I wiped a stray tear from my cheek and took a deep breath. I missed him so much I had never been away from him for more than a day since...Somalia. It sounds pathetic how I miss him and can't bear to be away from him. But it's true. I should be strong, hell I'm an ex-assassin but he is the only thing in my life that has been stable. He was always there for me, there's no one I trusted more.
Later on that night I sat at the table eating my meal made up of falafel and chick peas I looked up at my farther. We were eating in complete silence as the candle in the middle between us burned away. Tony. He's been on my mind ever since the plane took off. I wonder what's he's doing? Watching a movie with pizza probably drinking some beer. That was one of our favorite things to do together, it was so simple but I loved it the most.
"Ziva" Eli spoke and brought me out of my thoughts.
"Uh hm" I responded not really paying attention.
"While you are here I have a favor to ask of you"
"No, Eli, no I am here for Nettie's funeral and that is it I am not getting tangled in your plans" I nearly yelled, slamming my cutlery down next to the plate.
"Ziva" He said calmly
"I need you to do this. My life and your safety and probably even your Agent Meetballs safety depends on this" Eli said
"What...what have you got your self into?" I asked angrily.
"I got involved in illegal weapons, supplied to Iran and other countries it went bad and I either have to resign or they kill me and everything I love and what they love" Eli explained
"You... How dare you bring me into this! I have nothing to do with your covert affairs! Why do you not just resign?" I yelled at him.
I stood up and slammed my napkin on the table
"Ziva, you know that is not an option if you do this I will never ask for anything from you again, I won't even talk to you" Eli tried to bargain.
"How dare you bring me into this, and the people I love! How dare you..." I screamed
"I apologize Ziva. But if you do not do this..." He led on
I stared at him in disbelief. How dare he bring me into this? The people I love meant Tony. Tony. He manipulated me. He knew the people I love means Tony, he also knows I will do anything to protect him. But this time. I promised Tony I'd come back all right.
But if I come back all right he might not be all right. I can't believe I called him my father at one point. I stormed up the stairs and slammed the door to my room. I sat down on the bed and ran my fingers through my hair.
What am I going to do?
Thanks for reading! Please review, they make my day! So the next chapter will be Tony's P.O.V while Ziva's away and the chapter after that gets more interesting so please stick with it! Thanks!
