Tony walked into there house and headed up the stairs when he got there on there bed was sitting a teddy bear with an onesie that said I love my NCIS Daddy. The NCIS had been written in Ziva's handwriting. He smiled then saw the card sitting there.

Tony picked the card up and opened it. On the front was a picture of a stork flying across a blue sky with clouds.

He then opened up the card.

Dear Tony,

Well, my little Hairy butt I am proud to tell you that in 9 months you will be a Dad. I hope you are as excited as I am. I know this is one adventure we both will have to buckle our seat belts for.

Love Ziva

Tony sat in the room holding the bear and reading the card and he started to cry. She must have done this as he was getting the car out of the garage and she said she forgot something and came back into the house. Even though she was mad at him for the comment he made, she must have already been over it, just was making him pay.

Tony then went into there bathroom took a shower then laid down on the bed for a few hours of rest, he set the alarm to go off in three hours. When he went back to hospital he was going to take his Teddy bear into be with Ziva. However he needed to sleep to get rid of his headache.

McGee and Abby arrived at the hospital; Gibbs was down getting breakfast in the cafeteria. Gibbs had called and asked him to join him the cafeteria. Ziva had been moved to a regular room about 2 hours ago after clearing her head injury. Gibbs had sat in her room, he felt guilty that she was hurt and in the hospital. If he had not gone over into the ravine she would have not been hurt.

"Have either of you heard from Tony?" Gibbs asked?

"No, I take it he went home?" Abby asked.

"Yep, he said he would be back in 4 hours he must have been very tired. Ducky went to go check up on him."

Just then Gibbs phone rang. "We will meet you there."

"Come on Ducky is bringing Tony into the ER."

Abby and McGee looked at each other and then followed Gibbs to the ER.

Ducky caught them as they came off the elevator.

"Jethro, Abigail, Timothy… Tony is in the trauma unit they have already sent him to the CAT scan. They think he may have a hematoma and it has put him into a coma. He may need to have surgery to relieve the pressure on his brain."

Abby started to cry and Gibbs grabbed the women he considered his substitute daughter into a hug.

"I heard Ziva is out of ICU. I shall go talk to her, I would rather she hear about Anthony from us and not by accident." Ducky then headed to the elevator.

"Ducky we all will go with you she will need her family." Gibbs said as he pulled away from Abby.

"Let me talk first though. Please. I think it will be easier on Ziva." Ducky pleaded.

"Ok Duck. We will be in the waiting room come get us when you are ready." Gibbs and Abby and McGee then headed into the waiting room.

Ducky continued down the hall. He had let the ER nurse know they would be up in Anthony's wife's room and to page him if there were any changes. He gave her a copy of his medical power of attorney which listed Ziva and Ducky as the people able to help with decisions and to get information.

Ducky walked into Ziva's room. She was sleeping on her side and looked very good considering all she had been through in the past twenty-four hours.

Ziva stirred she heard the door open and thought it was maybe Tony or Gibbs. Then she opened her eyes and saw Ducky with a very serious look on his face.

"Ducky!" She could see the look on his face something was wrong. Then she saw the bear he was holding it was the bear she had left for Tony.

"Ziva, I have some bad news. Tony…"

"Did he leave?"

"Dear, no… he is very excited over the baby. However I went to check in on him and I found him unconscious. He was brought in by paramedics and is in ct now, they think he may have had a head injury in the car accident."

By now Ducky was sitting on the side of the bed by Ziva and he had handed her the bear that Tony had beside him when he found him unconscious in bed.

"Ziva, dear please it is not good for you or the baby to get upset. Take a deep breath and breathe. I will have some more information soon. His vitals signs were strong he was just unconscious. I think we found him in time when they find where the hematoma is they can drain it and he will be fine." Ducky was now holding Ziva and she was sobbing into his shoulder.

"Ziva. I know you and Tony wanted to tell everyone about your marriage and the baby together, however I think he would not mind if you told them now. I think they need to understand why you are so worried and I think you will find out you have more support than you know what to do with."

"Umm, I just…. Ducky could we wait… I have no problem with them knowing about the marriage however I want to wait to tell them about the baby. Can you find out more information on Tony?" Ziva asked as she wiped the tears away.

"Yes my dear. Jethro, Abigail and Timothy are outside they would like to see you, could they come in?"

"Sure Ducky." Ziva then wiped her eyes and took a deep breath. She placed the bear beside her and announced she was ready.

Ducky thought about saying something about the bear then decided not to; sometimes the unconscious part of the brain does things to protect the other parts. The team would figure things out when they saw the bear the t-shirt said it all.

Ducky walked outside in the waiting room was the team sitting there and Dr Polson was there from the ER.

"Dr. Mallard, I have some news on Tony, do you want to talk here or privately?"

"I believe here is best. This is his family and I know he would not mind. I take it you have the CT results."

"Yes, the CT showed a hematoma on the right side of the brain. He is already in emergency surgery with Dr Andrews one of our best neurosurgeons. They are going to place a shunt to drain the hematoma and then he will be in surgical ICU for about 5 days. The next 48 hours will tell us how he will do. I am sorry. However my other concern is his wife, this is going to be very stressful, and I am concerned for her …." Ducky stopped her and she caught on she maybe saying something she should not so she finished her statement in another way. "She has been through a lot and I am concerned this could be to stressful." Dr Polson looked at the team as she heard a gasp from Abby and saw McGee's mouth hit the ground.

"Umm Dr Polson I Thank You. I have already talked to Ziva and she understands. She has lots of support however not knowing would be more stressful for her."

Dr. Polson then left and McGee and Abby both looked at Gibbs and Ducky.

"You knew… I can see it both your eyes… they are married and you did not tell me or McGee! I can not believe it!!!" Abby started to rant and rave then suddenly she realized that her dear friend was sitting in her room alone. Suddenly she left the three men standing there and ran into Ziva's room.

"Ziva, ohh my Ziva are you okay? I wanted to come last night however they would not let anyone but Tony in and now Tony is in surgery and you can not go there cause you are hurt and…" Abby had pulled Ziva into a bear hug and was holding on tight.

"Abby I can not breathe!!"

Abby pulled back and saw the teddy bear on Ziva's bed and picked it up and saw the t-shirt.

"Abby what do you mean he is in surgery?"

"Ziva? Ummm I take it this is for Tony? Do we have a mini DiNozzo on the way?"

"ABBY!! Please you said Tony is in surgery, why?" Ziva was now yelling and could be heard down the hall.

Gibbs, Ducky and McGee were just entering the room as Ziva was screaming at Abby.

"Ziva, my dear, you need to relax you are recovering from a concussion and" Ducky then saw Abby holding the bear.

"Gibbs, Ducky please tell me where is Tony?" Gibbs heart broke he never had seen Ziva look so broken.

"He is in surgery to relieve pressure off his brain. He had a hematoma and apparently had no symptoms till he did not wake up." Gibbs told her, taking her hand in his.

"He is going to be fine Ziva, I have not given either one of you permission to die. I promise I will let you know anything that is going on with him. Now would you like to tell me about this bear Abby is holding?" Gibbs gave a little smile he was hoping that there was some good news with all the bad news that had happen in the past twenty-four hours.

Abby then handed the bear to Ziva.

"Well, Tony and I got married almost 4 months ago and I am about 8 weeks pregnant. I got the bear to surprise him at home. This was not how we wanted…." McGee was surprised when he saw Ziva break down and cry.

"Ziva if you need anything just let me know." McGee offered. Then he tugged on Abby's arm hinting that they might want to step out.

"Ziva, we are going to see what we can find out on Tony. Can Tim or I get you anything?" Abby offered.

"Umm can you get me a cup of peppermint tea, my stomach is upset a little. Thanks for checking on Tony for me." Ziva tried to keep her composure.

Ducky also stepped out with them leaving Gibbs with Ziva.

"So, a baby! I could see the marriage but I am surprised with a baby. However I know this is one very lucky baby. Ziva are you ok, come on I want you to tell me the truth." Gibbs was looking her in the eyes.

"Gibbs, I…can…what am I going…. Gibbs he has to be ok…" Ziva could not bring herself to say anything else. Her leg was aching and she was sore from the accident and she felt nauseated from her morning sickness and the thought Tony was in surgery was too much she cried into Gibbs shoulder until she finally fell asleep.

Gibbs gently laid her back into the bed and covered her up. Abby had started to come into the room when she heard Ziva crying and knew the tea could wait.

Gibbs walked out to the waiting room where the rest of the team was sitting.

"She is sleeping now. Any word on Tony?"

"He is in recovery now. They said the surgery went well, they are hoping he will be awake in about three hours." McGee offered Gibbs a cup of his favorite coffee as he told him the update.

"When will we be able to see him?"

"Jethro the nurse said she would call when he got to the SICU then we each can go in for a minute to see him. When Ziva wakes up her Doctor said we could take her in a wheelchair to see him also." Ducky touched his shoulder trying to let him know that his friends were there for him also.

Gibbs then walked away to the end of the hall. Ducky followed him.

"Jethro…you are blaming your self. This was not your fault. You got them out of that ravine.. if you had not they both would have died. What happened with Anthony was an accident it is easy to miss many people with this just go to sleep and never wake up. I dropped him off last night at the house and he had no symptoms of having a head injury."

"I should have checked on him when he did not show up here four hours later Ducky." Gibbs then took a large drink of his coffee.

"Jethro, we both knew he was tired, we all were."

"However maybe I could have hit the deer head on and not went down the ravine. If the car had not went over then they would have not been hurt. Ducky do not tell me about blame!"

"Jethro, they will be fine, soon you will be yelling at DiNozzo about being late and telling them both to keep it out of the office. Now let's go talk with Abigail and Timothy I think they need some support from you as they are worried about three of there closest friends." Ducky then reached up and gripped Gibbs on the shoulder and gave him a pat on the back.
