After thinking for a long time, Tony decides it is time to ask her. With the baby coming and everything else, he just decided that it was time. They were going to go out for lunch today, then he was going to ask her. Even after the death of her father, he wanted to cheer her up.

"Tony, this is so nice. I am really glad you brought me here. I love this restaurant." Ziva said.

"Yeah, I know." he replied.

"How did you know? I never told you about this place and we have never been here before?"

"When I suggested it, I saw your eyes light up." he replied. "That's how I knew."

"Of course you did! You are always looking into my eyes."

"Is there any reason why I shouldn't gaze at them and their beholder? I think not."

"I don't have a reason." She leaned across the table and kissed him.

Now, now, now! screamed a voice in Tony's head.

"Ummm…Ziva? Can I ask you something?"

"Anything. What's on your mind?"

He fumbles with his fingers. "Well, I know since we are dating and all and that the baby will be coming sooner or later," this makes Ziva giggle. "I think that we should go find a place and move in together."

"Tony? Are you being serious here?"

"More than serious. I want to get a house, or an apartment, or a condo, or whatever you want… with you."

"Is there any reason I should say 'no'?" Ziva asks, smiling.

"I don't have a reason." Tony replies. "Then we will go looking this weekend? Does that sound good to you?"

"Wow you really want to get this done, don't you? Sure, I don't have any other plans."

On Saturday, Tony picked up Ziva from her apartment. They spent the entire day looking with no luck.

"Tony, it's okay. I am sure we will find one sooner or later." And she was right.

It was Sunday afternoon, and after looking at about five other houses, they think they found the one. A cute little, white two-story house with evergreen trim in some areas and evergreen shudders. It had some good acreage and it had a nice front yard.

"Oh, Tony! It's perfect!" Ziva exclaimed. "Not too big or too small, nor too showy or shabby."

Tony talked to the realtor for about an hour and finally they shook hands.

"Congratulations, Mr. DiNozzo." the short, stout and bearded realtor said. "And welcome to your new home."

Back in the office on Monday, Ziva had decided to take the day off because she was so tired. Tony walked into the office with a big smile on his face.

"What's going on, Tony?" McGee asks.

"She is moving in with me, McLonely. I never thought that I would be sharing a house with Ziva, but, now I am going to. Can you believe it, Probie? She's moving in with me!"

"Congratulations! To the both of you! Just let me know when the housewarming party is."

"Housewarming party, what?" Tony heard Abby say from a distance. She came running in. "I heard housewarming party."

Tony gives McGee a look here. "Mr. McLoudness here was just suggesting I have a housewarming party for our house." Abby looks confused.

"Ziva and I just bought a house yesterday."

"Oh!" Abby runs over to him and gives him a hug.

"Thanks, Abbs."

"So what about that housewarming party?" She asks after they break from the hug.

"I don't know, but I might have some ideas." Tony answers sitting in his chair.

"Yeah, me too." McGee says, pulling his chair over to Tony's desk.

"Count me in, too." Tony heard his voice from miles away. Gibbs.

"Boss?"

"What? I have had four wives. I know a few things about housewarming parties."

"Alright, Boss. Pull up a chair."

"And, DiNozzo?"

Tony stands up. "Yes?"

Gibbs puts out a hand. "Congratulations."

Tony is taken aback, but joins hands with him.

"Thank you."
