A/N: I am extremely sorry for the lack of updates! It is past 1 in the morning… Think of yourselves as special for this =]
I am feeling much, much better than I was when I wrote the last chapter.
This is the last chapter, but there will be a sequel! I promise! I cannot leave it like this! I promise you, there will be a sequel. So if you think it is a strange ending, do not fear! There will be more to come!
"I cannot believe that we go home tomorrow." Ziva said sadly to Abby, as they got dressed in the bathroom. They were getting ready for the camp disco party that Jenny had organized.
"I know. I am so going to miss you." Abby said, almost poking her eye out with her mascara wand.
"And McGee." Ziva joked.
"You are going to miss Tony so much." Abby teased, and to her surprise Ziva blushed, but quickly turned away.
"Budge over, Abby." Ziva poked Abby in the side and Abby obediently moved over to Ziva could get to the mirror too.
They applied their make-up in silence. Abby was wearing her signature black eyeliner and mascara, and dark red lipstick. Ziva had outlined her eyes in black kohl and used black mascara to help accentuate her eyes. She wasn't wearing any other make-up other than some clear lip-gloss.
Ziva zipped back up her make-up bag and sat on the edge of the bath, waiting for Abby to finish.
"Ready?" Abby turned around and asked, and Ziva stood up.
"Yes." She smiled nervously. Abby grinned back and they walked over to the cabin where Jenny was waiting for them. They had decided that McGee and Tony would have to wait for them in the hall, so it would be a sort of surprise.
"Ready?" Jenny repeated Abby's words, and both girls nodded. They wanted to see what Gibbs had done to the hall…
The trio walked to the hall. The door was open, and it all looked very inviting. Abby smiled at Ziva, who was looking very sad.
Home tomorrow… She thought. I will probably never see them again…
She sighed, and tried to put on a more happy expression.
"Shall we enter?" Jenny asked.
"Yes we shall." Abby grinned and Ziva smiled too.
The three walked into the hall together and then stopped abruptly.
"Wow." Abby breathed.
"My words exactly." Jenny agreed. She had known that Gibbs had wanted to make this special but… woah. She had not been expecting this.
Ziva still hadn't said anything.
The room was decorated with flowers of all colors that she had seen in the woods when Talia and her Ima had died. There was a square cleared in the center of the room, obviously for dancing. There was a huge banner suspended from the ceiling which read:
"NCIS Summer Camp 09 – ZATT"
"It's our initials!" Abby exclaimed, and Jenny laughed.
"Where are Jethro, Tony and Tim?" Jenny asked, and Abby shrugged.
"Here." A voice said from behind them. All three turned to see Gibbs, Tony and McGee standing in the doorway.
"Timmy!" Abby exclaimed, and threw her arms around a very surprised McGee. Jenny and Gibbs smiled at the pair.
Tony looked at Ziva. She was wearing a scarlet knee-length dress with a V-neckline. The skirt was pleated and was pulled together by a bow on the right side.
"Zee?" He asked. Ziva blinked, coming out of her reverie. She had been remembering times with her sister and mother; the flowers had brought back memories. "Are you okay?"
"I am fine." Ziva replied stonily. Tony glared at her.
"Smile." He commanded. Ziva glared back.
Then they both burst out laughing.
"What happened?" Abby asked.
"Tony happened." Ziva said, at the exact time as Tony said, "Ziva happened."
"Where is Gibbs? And Jenny?" McGee wondered aloud. Abby shrugged, and then suddenly music started and they turned to the small stage at the end of the hall. Gibbs was doing something with the sound system.
All the single ladies, all the single ladies
All the single ladies, all the single ladies
All the single ladies, all the single ladies
All the single ladies
Abby put her hands on her hips.
"Gibbs? Is that a hint or something?" She asked, and Gibbs laughed.
"Something like that!" He replied, grinning.
"Ahora ponga las manos arriba
En el club, que sólo se separó
Estoy haciendo mi propia pequeña cosa
Decidió baño y ahora quieres viaje
Causa notado mi otro hermano." Ziva sang along, and Tony looked at her confused.
"Are you singing it in Spanish?" He asked.
"Si." Ziva grinned.
"Wow. That is cool. Especially as I understood some of it… Hang on, why Spanish?" Tony asked. "Why not… Hebrew?"
"It sounds nicer in Spanish." Ziva replied, with a shrug of her shoulders, as if it was the most normal thing in the world, to be singing in a random language because 'it sounds nicer.' Tony shook his head in despair.
"I will never get used to you Zee." He chuckled.
Eventually, Abby enticed (or rather dragged) everyone onto the dance floor.
"Last song!" Gibbs called from the stage. Abby groaned.
"Gibbs!" She whined, making the 'I' last for about ten syllables.
"Abby." Gibbs replied with a straight face. The music came on.
I tasted, tasted love so sweet
And all of it was lost on me
Bought and sold like property
Sugar on my tongue
I kept falling over
I kept looking backward
I went broke believing
That the simple should be hard
Tony placed his hands on Ziva's waist, and she slid her arms around his neck. She had been wondering if she would actually do it, but it was the last day, and she would never see them again… so she might as well make the most of her time.
"Know this in any other languages?" Tony asked. Ziva thought for a moment before joining in with the song.
"Tutti noi siamo noi siamo
Tutti noi siamo noi siamo
E ogni giorno è un inizio di qualcosa di bello." Ziva sang. Tony smiled.
"Ho sprecato, spreco di amore per voi
Negoziazione per qualcosa di nuovo
Beh, è difficile cambiare il modo in cui si perde
Se pensi che non hai mai vinto
Tutti siamo Siamo
Tutti noi siamo noi siamo
E ogni giorno è un inizio di qualcosa di bello
E alla fine le parole non importa
Alla fine, niente rimane lo stesso
E alla fine i sogni solo dispersione e cadono come pioggia
Tutti siamo Siamo
Tutti noi siamo noi siamo
E ogni giorno è un inizio di qualcosa di bello, qualcosa di reale
Tutti noi siamo noi siamo
Tutti noi siamo noi siamo
E ogni giorno è un inizio di qualcosa di bello, bello." They sang together. Gibbs smiled at the duet and Jenny gently rested her chin on his shoulder.
"I love happy endings." She whispered.
A/N: The first song was "Single Ladies" by Beyonce and the second was "All We Are" by Matt Nathanson. I love the chorus of All We Are in Italian! Thank you so much for reading! Please review!
