I'm really tired & exhausted tonight but I hope you like this drabble anyway, it's a little more quiet and shorter, but I really need some sleep and peace right now. Enjoy reading!
"Hey." Tony gently spoke up as he approached her with a blanket on his arm.
"I knew I would find you here." He came to rest next to her and carefully draped the blanket across her shoulder and wrapped his arm around her sideways.
Whenever Ziva needed to think or take a break from her daily routine she would go onto the rooftop of her apartment and look at D.C at night.
"Why?" She asked quietly without looking up at him but slightly shuffling closer to soak in the warmth he was providing her cold body.
"You seemed absentminded today so I thought you might go up here." He explained in an even tone.
They had just closed a case about a dead petty officer who had left behind a 4 year old daughter and it had seemingly distraught Ziva quite a bit.
"What if we will never have a child, Tony?" She paused as she tried to collect her thoughts.
"We put ourselves in danger ever day. We could leave behind a little girl as well." At this the tears started to pool in her eyes and it was the first time she actually looked at him.
Pulling her a little closer and caressing her arm he tried to soothe her.
"We will have kids Ziva. And we will be with them all the way." He started and at the next sentence his voice grew even softer.
"I will always have your back and you will have mine. We will make sure that we stay as safe as possible, ok?" Seeing the sincerity in his eyes her concerns slowly started to wash away and she relaxed into his embrace once again.
"Are you ready to become a father?" She looked at him and tried to read the expression in his eyes and found nothing but love.
"I'm ready when you are." A smile tucked at the corners of his lips and he slowly leaned in for an ever so gentle kiss.
And that's when she knew it, he would really always have her back.
