Chapter 13- My Party:
"Hello, Brian Bolter again. Like I told you, Ariana Gibbs was in a coma. Now, the key word here folks is was. She was in a coma, but she is now out of it and getting out of the hospital. As you can see, we are not the only news team here. The newspaper reporters', magazine reporters', and fans are everywhere. We're going to try to get to get to her first. Hello? Ms. Gibbs (Please call me Ariana.) May we have a word with you?" Asked Brian.
"Why sure you can," I said. I got up out of my wheelchair and walked closer. We gave each other a hug and he asked,
"What is like knowing now that you can put all of this crazy stuff involving La Grenioulle behind you for good?"
"I am so very happy! I know how many people Jeanne Benoit and her father, Renee Benoit or La Grenioulle hurt and/or killed, but now he's behind bars and she's dead."
"Are you going to be at Renee's trial on Wednesday?"
"Yes, I am, much to my father's disgust. He wants me to get as much rest as I can for graduation, but I have other plans on my mind. And I had enough rest when I was in my coma," I said, and we both laughed.
"Are you glad that you're now up and walking?"
"Ecstatic."
"That is very good. All of us back at Fox5 are happy that you made an excellent recovery and we wish the very best of luck."
"Thank so much!"
oOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo
"Where are we going?" I asked Ziva. I was blindfolded and angry since I had no clue where I was going to arrive.
"You will see, now you will take a left. Then you will end up at a door. I want you to turn the knob and walk in. Stand where you are and wait for me to take the blindfold off.
"Ok, fine," I said, turning the doorknob. "Well, I'm waiting for you to take it off," I said annoyed. At that moment, took it off, and I opened my eyes.
Everyone jumped up, the light turned on, and everyone yelled, "SURPRISE!"
"Oh my gosh! I can't believe you guys did all this for me! I had no idea!" I exclaimed, running over to my dad. (Well, as fast as I could in the heels I was wearing.)
"Well, you almost died, and we couldn't bear the thought of it, so now that you're back we want to honor your life," said my grandfather (Jackson Gibbs), hugging me tight.
And honor they sure did. They had sideshows of he when I was little up to the present time. And then me with all my fiends and family and when I was little and helped at NCIS. (As much as could.)
Then, the song "I'm Alive" by Neil Diamond came on. Addy told me to go up there and start singing it, and I did. At one point in the song, Tony came up and started singing with me. I'll show whenever Tony joined in by putting a "" in it.
"Take a walk,
You can hardly breath the air,
Look around,
It's a hard life everywhere
People talk,
But they never really care
On the street
There's a feeling of despair
But everyday
There's a brand new baby born
And everyday
There's the sun to keep you warm
And it's alright
Yeah, it's alright
I'm alive
And I don't care much for words of doom
If it's love you need,
Well I've got the room
It's a simple thing
That came to me when I found you
I'm alive
I'm alive
Every night
On the streets of Hollywood
Pretty girls
Want to give you something good
Love for sale,
It's a lonely town at night
Therapy
For a heart misunderstood
But look around,
There's a a flower on every street
Look around,
And, it's growing at your feet
And everyday you can hear me say
That I'm alive
I wanna take all that life has got to give
All I need is someone to share it with
I've got love
And love is all I really need to live
I'm alive
I'm alive
And everyday
There's a brand new baby born
And every way
There's enough to keep you warm
And it's okay
And I'm glad to say
That I'm alive
And I don't care much for words of doom
If it's love you got ,well I've got the room
It's a simple thing
That came to me when I found you
I'm alive
I'm alive
I wanna take all that life has got to give
All I need is someone to share it with
I've got love
And love is all I really need to live
I'm alive
I'm alive
And I don't care much for words of doom
If it's love you need,
Well I've got the room
It's a simple thing that came to me
And thank God I'm alive
I can take all that life has got to give
If I got someone to share it with
I got love and love is all you really need
I'm alive"
"Why did you join in, Tony?" I asked.
"Why do you think, Ari?" He asked.
"I don't know! That's why I asked you in the first place?"
"I love you, Ariana. And I never ever stopped loving you."
"I love you too, Tony!" Then we kissed...
