CHAPTER 10: Something's Come Up

When the Gibbs family finally arrived home that night it was the kids' bed time. After explaining Ziva's adoption to his team the kids were done with their tour of NCIS the family including Gibbs's team went out for dinner. At dinner Ziva started to warm up to the rest of his team much to Gibbs's pleasure and before they knew it was time for them to go to bed.

"Well I'm glad that Ziva is finally feeling more comfortable around us and around the team" Jenny said after everyone else was in bed

"I know me too Jen, although I do think that you need to do something about Ziva, she is still upset about that Mossad comment"

"I know Jethro, I tried to explain, and I think she has just always been a daddy's girl…if you know what I mean"

"Not really Jen"

"Oh come on Jethro, she warmed up to you the fastest"

"I have no idea why though" said Gibbs defensively

"I'm not saying it's a bad thing I just wish that she would warm up to all of us."

"I know Jen." Said Gibbs.

The next morning Gibbs came downstairs to find a note stuck to the coffee maker

Went for a run back soon. –Z

Gibbs chuckled and then sure enough by the time everyone else was awake and starting to eat there breakfast Ziva walked through the doors, with her headphones in just like the day before.

"Morning" said Ziva smiling as she took out her headphones

"Morning Ziva" said Abby

"I was thinking that today we could go to the park or something, OH or we could go play I the backyard…what do you want to do?" asked Abby

"Both of those ideas sound fine to me" said Ziva. Just then Gibbs' cell phone rang

"Yeah Gibbs"

"Okay who is it?" Gibbs asked into the phone.

"I have no idea"

"Yeah I'll ask"

"Okay thanks Kate"

"Uh-huh"

"Yeah I'll be back in the office soon"

"Okay bye". Gibbs said and then hung up the phone.

"Jen can I talk to you?" Gibbs asked

"What's going on?" asked Jenny

"The man who was watching us yesterday his name is Amid Hadar, he works for Mossad"

"Oh no…and you think he is here to try and get Ziva?"

"I think so; I know he was trying to find Ziva"

"which he now has" Jenny said sighing "Well come on I guess we gotta tell them"

"No need, they're listening" Gibbs said smiling. "Come on out you guys we know you're listening"

"Pshhhh it was Tim's idea!" said Tony

"NO it wasn't!" yelled Tim

"Gibbs why were you talking about a man who works for Mossad?" Ziva asked

"Do you know a man named Amid Hadar Ziver?" Gibbs asked

"Yes…why?" Ziva asked suspiciously

"Photo ID came back from yesterday about the man who was watching us and it was him"

"Why would he be watching us?" Abby asked sounding scared.

"Because my father is looking for me" Ziva answered

"So…So you're going to leave?" Tim asked sadly

"No" said Jenny "Ziva is apart of our family now"

Ziva smiled at Jenny and then said

"I have grown to like it here, even though it's only been two days. I have no idea what Hadar is doing here but I do not want to think about it now." Said Ziva

"We'll figure this out Ziver" said Gibbs and then he headed down to the basement to work on his boat.

"Come on Ziva let's go outside and play on the swing set" said Abby happily tugging her older sister and brothers along with her. Jenny smiled to herself glad that things had worked out between her and Ziva and then she too went downstairs to talk to her husband.
