A/N: HAPPY NCIS DAAAAAAAAAY :)
Soooo, I was really happy about all of your nice comments :) You guys made my day! :)) I'm so glad you liked the idea lol :D I was kinda scared, I gotta admit ;)
And as there were some confusions, here's the explanation: Ali is Ziva's niece and Tony and her are now her legal guardians. ;)
So, here's the next chapter and yes, it involves Tony ;) Enjoy!
"How is she?", Tali asked, referring to Ziva, as she walked into the room with two coffees-to-go from Starbucks. "I dunno. I mean, she's still asleep so I don't know how she is.", Ali babbled.
Tali sat down next to her. "Do you think she'll remember me?", Tali sighted. Ali nodded, taking a sip from her Vanilla Latte. "But she'll probably freak out. I shouldn't be here when she wakes up. It'll make her too furious.", Tali said.
"No, Tali. She'll not freak out. She'll be totally happy to see you. I mean, we all thought you were dead so it's quite a fantastic surprise.", Ali assured her. Tali smiled at her, her eyes shining.
Then suddenly there was a knock at the door. "Shit! That's probably Tony.", Ali cursed. "Your boyfriend? The one that stayed the night?", Tali questioned, having trouble with all the new names.
Ali laughed. "No, he'd be a bit old for me! He's Ziva's boyfriend, my dad.", she explained. "He thinks I'm dead, right?", Tali assumed. Ali nodded, feeling slightly guilty.
It must be really hard for Tali that everyone thought she was dead. Ali walked over to the door. "Hi Tony.", she greeted, a little nervous when he stepped into the room.
"Hey Ali.", he replied, kissing her on the cheek like he always did. "What's wrong?", he asked concerned. Ali being this nervous wasn't normal. "Ah, you see, we have a special guest.", Ali tried to explain.
Tony stepped towards Tali, looking at her a little confused. Hadn't he seen that person before? "Hi, I'm Tony DiNozzo, Ziva's boyfriend.", Tony introduced himself.
Tali didn't reply, instead she stared at Ali, begging her with her eyes to say something. She was afraid that she might scare Tony off. "Um, Tony? Do you wanna sit down for a sec?", Ali started.
Tony grew concerned: "Ali, what's going on here? Who is she?" Ali stood next to Tali and took her hand for support. "Tony. This is.. Tali. Ziva's sister, my aunt.", she whispered. Tony gasped.
"Ziva's sister? Your aunt? The Tali that died in a bomb attack six years ago?", Tony asked, very confused. Tali and Ali nodded. "But how is that possible?", he questioned.
"Well, you see. She isn't dead. It's quite a long story but we can make it short if you want us to.", Ali explained. Tony sat down on a chair, symbolizing them to start talking.
And Tali did: "Tony, I know that Ziva probably told you that I died in a bomb attack when I was sixteen. But I didn't. And there wasn't a bomb attack either. Mossad was after me because I refused to go on a really dangerous mission. I had to flee. I didn't know that they told everyone that I was dead. I moved to Los Angeles and lived there for the last six years. I'm an American Citizen now. When I left Israel I planned to call Ziva and tell her everything or at least send her a letter or something but soon it turned out that even that was too risky. So I just kept my mouth shut and waited. About one month ago I was told that Eli went to jail. I waited a little while just to make sure I was safe. But when I heard that Ziva was shot I had to come here immediately. I took the next flight to DC and here I am."
"I was as shocked as you are, Tony. Tali didn't know that I live here now. But yeah, here we are.", Ali added. "Wow, I don't know what to say.", Tony murmured.
He stood up again and walked towards Tali and Ali. "So, hi Tali, it's nice to meet you.", he then said, offering his hand. But instead of shaking his hand Tali pulled him into a giant hug.
"Hey there, brother-in-law.", Tali giggled. Ali had to laugh. How she missed that giggling. "Well actually Ziva and I are not married we're just..", Tony started to explain but Tali cut him off and gave him a playful smack on the shoulder.
"I was just kidding. I know that you're just girlfriend and boyfriend. But still. I mean, you're the only family I have, right?", Tali told him. After a small pause Tony asked: "So, Tali. How long are you gonna stay in DC?"
Tali smiled at Ali. "I'm not leaving my family again. I'm staying here in DC. I found a really nice little apartment and actually rented it when I was still in Los Angeles. Before I came to the hospital I checked it out to put my suitcases there and it's pretty cool. I like it.", she announced.
"Oh my gosh, Tali!", Ali exclaimed and hugged her close. She was so happy that the truly great part of her family was finally back together. She had a perfect family now.
Tali, Ziva, Tony, Abby, McGee, Gibbs, Ducky – the best she could dream of. And nothing, seriously nothing, could separate them now.
