A/N ok,, soo I honestly have to tell you that I had no idea where to continue. I'm gonna go with this Kate thing pretty soon but it's too quick after the last chapter. And Ziva is no more then what, 3,5 months pregnant? So she can't have that damn baby yet. (still have to figure out a name too, so maybe you can suggest some in the reviews?) So anyway, let's see where this team is gonna take me today shall we?
"Can't I just go straight to my lab Gibbs, I don't really feel like saying hi or anything." Gibbs gave her his famous stare. "Ok, not.." she sighed. DING, the elevator doors opened. Three faces were immediately looking towards the elevator. "Gibbs!" Ziva called out as she walked towards him. "Did you find her?" He nodded towards the elevator. Abby came strolling out like she did something wrong and was ashamed of it. "Abby!" Ziva said relieved. She hugged her friend. "Where have you been? We were so worried about you!" Abby smiled shyly. "That's really sweet Ziva, but you shouldn't have. I'm fine." Abby sounded really down. "Is anything wrong Abby?" She shook her head. "I just wanna be alone right now, ok?" She turned to walk back into the elevator. McGee and Tony
–who were waiting at their desks expecting Abby to walk over and say 'hi'- both had a dumbfounded look on their faces. "Let her go." Gibbs told Ziva.
Ziva let her alone for a couple of hours, but she really wanted to talk to her friend. It wasn't really visible she was pregnant but she wanted to tell Abby, everyone knew except her best friend. Besides that, she also wanted to tell her about Tony Caring Dinozzo. There still wasn't any music to be heard when she walked out of the elevator. She walked carefully, afraid the door wouldn't open. But they did. "Abby?" she called out. "Hey Ziva." She heard softly. "Abby, you are not doing fine." It wasn't a question, it was a statement. Abby looked at her feet, today was definitely not a good day. "i w vis te y day." was all Ziva could make out of what she said. "Can you please repeat that?" Ziva asked really nicely. "I wen visit te esterday" Ziva frowned. "You went to visit who yesterday?" "Kate!" Abby yelled. "Ok, Kate, I went to visit Kate yesterday. Well big surprise she's still in a freaking coma!" Abby was clearly upset. Ziva had absolutely no idea what to say, it developed into an awkward silence. "Was there any change? That made you visit her?" Ziva took Kate's place in the team, she knew she did. Talking about Kate wasn't easy for her, what if Kate would wake up? Would they just shove Ziva aside when she got all better and into shape? They just couldn't do that, right? They were family to her, the only she had after she killed her brother and left Mossad. But maybe she wasn't family to them, maybe she was just surrogate-Kate. Abby shook her head. "Her birthday was last week." "Oh, so it was bad seeing her like that. Yes? That's why you're so upset?" Abby just gave her a big duh-look. "Maybe next time you should go with someone? Tony? McGee? Maybe that would be better." Abby just shrugged. "I could've gone with Gibbs" Ziva's eyes snapped up. Gibbs still went to visit her? Maybe they would really dump her like that. And what about Tony, would Tony just dump her and their kid if Kate woke up? "Apparently he goes twice a week." Ziva was surprised, twice a week was a lot. That would certainly explain why he wasn't there when she came back into the office on a Friday a couple of weeks ago. "Twice a week huh?" She just said. Abby nodded. "Yeah, why did you come down here? Did you want to talk about something?" Abby walked towards Ziva. "Uuhm," Ziva was having doubts, should she tell her now? It's a pretty bad time, right? "It's uuhm, nothing. You know, just checking up on you." "Are you sure? Because I'm really bored, so talking/gossiping would be great." Ziva smiled. She intuitively put her hand on her stomach. "Are you not feeling well? Because I can make you some tea, tea is great if you're stomach hurts." Ziva shook her head. "No, I'm feeling good Abby. Wonderful even." "You? Admitting that you are feeling wonderful? How come?" McGee came walking into the lab. Saved by the bell right? "So, what's your fav name?" McGee asked cheerfully. "My fav name for what Tim?" Abby asked confused. "For the baby." McGee laughed. "What baby?" She looked at Ziva. That was why she was touching her stomach? "Ziva and Tony's baby?" He said doubtfully. He looked at Ziva, and if looks could kill pffieuw he'd be six feet under by now. "YOU AND TONY ARE HAVING THE BABY?" Abby said cheerfully while walking towards Ziva to hug here but stopping just before reaching her. "Wait, YOU DIDN'T TELL ME!" She was angry, really angry. "You told McGee but you didn't tell me!" She shoved Ziva. "OUT!" Ziva put her hands up in defeat. "Abby, let me explain" "NO!, too late!" Abby kicked both of them out and shut the door. "Abby! McGee found out, accidentally!" Ziva screamed through the door. Abby stood facing Ziva, arms crossed. "I thought you had the abortion!" Abby yelled back. Ziva sighed. Everything had went so fast lately. She was going to get rid of the baby, and then she wasn't. She didn't find the time to tell Abby. "I wanted to tell you this morning Abby, you were gone." She said just loud enough for Abby to hear. No answer. "Would it make you happy if I said that we are giving 'us' a chance? And he made me dinner and breakfast. And he was a total gentleman when I stayed over yesterday?" Abby looked up, damn. That did make her happy. She opened the doors. "Yeah, well, I'm still made at you." Ziva nodded. "Yeah, well, I've got about 5 months left." "Ok," Abby turned around. "Ok, good." Ziva took the elevator back up.
