Okay, so I don't speak Italian, but for Tony's mother, I tried to look up a few phrases. I know they are most likely not correct, but I only know English and Spanish. So if they are completely incorrect... sorry. I tried. Oh and I put the 'English translation' beside it in italics. Thanks!

Read on!

Kate straightened her black dress once again while staring into her full length mirror. She'd been complaining to Tony for the past hour about how this dress just didn't fit her right anymore. Then she just told herself that of course it wasn't going to, none of her clothes were. Now her main focus switched to her hair. She'd brushed it, curled it, clipped it up, took it down, clipped it back up, took it back down. Finally, she'd just clipped half of it up, figuring it was a nice balance, letting the curls fall over her shoulders.

"You look beautiful babe," Tony said, coming up behind her and kissing her shoulder. "I know you're worried, but everything is going to be just fine. Tonight is a good night. Besides, if something goes wrong, you can always shoot somebody. Not to mention, your excuse can always be that you are pregnant and moody."

"I am not moody." She smiled and pushed a stray hair out of her face. "I just have this feeling that something is going to go wrong. What if your parents don't like me? Or what if..."

"Wait a minute. My mom and dad are going to love you! We can't stop anything from happening, but you can stop worrying. This is our life, not everyone else's. It might help if you tried to remember that every once in awhile."

"I love you," Kate whispered and turned around.

"Always and forever," Tony replied, kissing her on the lips. "Now lets go before we're the ones that are late."

"Oh Anthony!" Tony's parents were already at the resteraunt when he and Kate arrived. "I've missed you so much," Tony's mom said hugging him. She was a short, plump woman with a heavy Italian accent.

"You look gorgeous mamma," Tony complimented. "You look great too papa." Tony turned to his father, who was quite a contrast from his mother, and gave him a hug. Tony's dad stood at a solid six feet with slightly graying dark brown hair and a mustache that rested perfectly over his lip.

Releasing his son from the hug, Tony's dad turned his attention to Kate. "Now who is this beauty?" He also had an Italian accent, just not as heavy as Mrs. DiNozzo's.

"Mamma, papa... this is Kate. Kate, this is my mother, Gabriella, and my father, Joey."

"Tony, essa e bellissimo. Pero non vostro tipo." (Tony, she is beautiful. But not your type.)

"Mamma, per favore..." Tony replied, hoping she'd stop right there. "Let's all just go inside and sit down." (Mom, please...)

"What did she say?" Kate whispered in Tony's ear as they walked through the resteraunt doors.

"Umm, she said you were beautiful."

"That's all?" She paused. "DiNozzo, you are a terrible liar."

"I'll tell you later baby," Tony said, kissing her forehead. "Later."

Tony and Kate had reserved a whole section of the resteraunt for a party of twenty. Pretty much everyone had arrived except for Kate's parents.

"Where are they?" Kate said as everyone was ordering their drinks. "I swear I told them seven."

"Calm down honey, they'll be here," Tony reassured her.

Kate breathed a deep sigh as she ordered a diet coke.

"No Seabreeze tonight Katie?" Kate's sister Laura asked.

"Maybe later," Kate lied. She didn't want to tell everyone else the news until her parents arrived, which would hopefully be soon. Tony said that his mother probably already knew they were going to be married and Kate figured that part was probably pretty obvious to her family too since she'd never made a big deal about a new 'boyfriend' before.

"Hey babe, what's your brother's name again?" Tony questioned.

"Which one?"

"Well, both would be nice actually."

Kate laughed. "The one to the left of Gibbs is Marcus and his girlfriend Kayla. He is a year older than me. Then the one sitting by Ducky is Ashton, he's four years older than me."

"Laura is the oldest right? Thirty-six?"

"Thirty-five actually and her loser boyfriend Kevin is pushing forty," Kate whispered.

Tony smiled and kissed Kate on the lips. ""Ti amo con tutto il cuore."

"I have no idea what you just said, but it sounds so... sexy."

"I love you with all my heart," Tony repeated in english. "So you're the baby?"

"That I... mom, dad." Kate stopped mid-sentence as she saw her parents walk in.

"Katie honey, you look absolutely beautiful," her father Robert said.

"Thank you daddy," Kate said as he kissed her on the cheek. "Hey mom."

"Hello Caitlin. I've missed you so much," Tonya replied, hugging her daughter. "You've picked up some weight, but don't worry... it looks good on you."

"Is it that obvious?" Kate mouthed to Tony.

Chapter Title- I titled this chapter "Model Behavior" because Kate is kind of obsessed with her looks in the beginning and then at the end, her mom mentions her looks once again.
