"So what was your talk about?" Tony asked Ziva.
"We talked about old times" Ziva answered.
"And about what exactly?"
"Why are you so nosy Tony?" Ziva asked him.
"I just want to know if she said somthing about me. When she did, nothing is true."
Ziva had to laught and said "We did not talk about you Tony"
"Good" he answered.
Because it was already getting dark they go to bed.
In the middle of the night Ziva woke up because someone called her name.
Ziva took her gun fom under her pillow and pointed it into the direction where the voice came from.
"Wow,wow,wow put that gun down Ziva it is just me Tony" he said and Ziva put her gun away.
"What?" she asked angrily.
"Could you please stop snoring? You snore like a drunken sailor" Tony said.
"I do not snore" Ziva said.
"Yes you do" Tony said.
"Tony! Stop it if you want to life ok" Ziva said.
"Ok, ok calm down Ziva" Tony said and they driftet back to sleep.
Zivas dream
"Schhh Ziva everything is alright. I am here for you." Ari said as he was holding his three year old crying sister in his arms.
"Where does it hurt the most?" he asked her.
"There" Ziva said and pinted at her rips.
"Can I see it? I will help you that the pain go away ok" Ari said and Ziva nodded.
After Ari looked at Zivas rips he said "Wait a minute please I will be back soon"
A few minutes later Ari came back with a bandage and a cream and pain killers.
"Sooo I will put that cream on your rips now and after that the bandage. Ok? Maybe it is going to hurt a bit and the cream is cold." Ziva nodded and after Ari bandaged her he gave her the pain killers with a glass of water and said "Sleep now and tomorrow it will be better" Ziva nodded again and after Ari gave her a good night kiss she fell asleep.
At the next day Ziva stood up at 4:30 and went out of the tent and for her normally morning run. She came back at 5:15 and took a shower.
After that she went back into the tent where she slept in to wake Tony up.
She stood next to him and tried to wake him up but he wouldn't wake up so she took her water bottle and let the water flow over his head.
Tony jumped up in the bed and was shocked.
"That vas realy nice of you Ziva" he said.
"First good morning and second I tried for five minutes to wake you up"
"When did you get up?" Tony asked her.
"At 4:30 why?"
"How can you get up that early?"
"I normaly stay up at 4:00 o'clock Tony?"
"And why do you do that?"
"Because I want to run before I have to go to wor and in Mossad you start to work at five." she said.
"Are you kidding me? At 5? In the morning?"
Ziva laught and said "Yes Tony at five in the morning"
A month later
Ziva and Tony had gotten more and more friend and that night nobody of them two could sleep so they went out of the tent and layed down on a blanked near the tree they where always sitting.
They where watching the stars and Tony said "He could you see the stars over there?"
"Where?"
"Follow my finger the one near the W"
"Ahh yes I can"
"You know the story about them?"
"No. Tell it"
"Ok. The W is called Cassiopeia and the constellation I mean is Andromeda. Andromeda was the daughter of Cepheus and Cassiopeia.
Cassiopeia boasted that her daughter was more beautiful than the Nereids, the nymph-daughters of the sea god Nereus and often seen accompanying Poseidonthe god of the punish the queen for her arrogance, Poseidon,sent a sea monster named Cetus to ravage the coast of Aethiopia including the kingdom of the vain queen. The desperate king consulted the Oracle of Apollo, who announced that no respite would be found until the king sacrificed his daughter, Andromeda, to the monster. Stripped naked, she was chained to a rock on the coast.
Perseus was returning from having slain the Gorgon Medusa. After he happened upon the chained Andromeda, he approached Cetus while invisible (for he was wearing Hades's helm), and killed the sea monster. He set Andromeda free, and married her in spite of her having been previously promised to her uncle Phineus. At the wedding a quarrel took place between the rivals and Phineus was turned to stone by the sight of the Gorgon's head."
"Where do you know the story from?" Ziva asked.
"My father and I always watched the stars when I was a kid and he told me all the stories."
"My sister and I also watched the stars and she loved to make her own stories about them"
"And now?"
"She died a while ago" Ziva answered.
"I am sorry Ziva" Tony said.
Ziva faced him and smiled "You do not have to be" Ziva said.
There faces where just a few inches away and then the kissed eachother and put their whole passio in the kiss. After they had to breathe they broke apart and smiled at eachother.
