Hi, everyone! Here is the next chapter. It's a short little fluff chapter, not too complex. This is short compared to the last chapter. There will probably never be a 4,000 word chapter again, sorry. I hope you enjoy it.

When Tony and Ziva entered the apartment they immediately dropped on the couch, breathless from the day. Once they settled, Ziva's whole demeanor changed. She was not agitated like she was in the hospital, she was now so relaxed that no one would guess that she almost died today. She was just so happy to be home and she showed it by asking, "Are you hungry?"

Tony looked at her confused. "Of course I am, I'm always hungry." He leaned back on the couch, closing his eyes like he was daydreaming. "I can almost taste Kung Pao Chicken and white rice on my tongue." Ziva hissed in rebuttal. "What?"

"I'm thinking pizza. Extra cheese and pepperoni." She said, smiling innocently.

"Another one of your cravings?"

Ziva nodded. "Yes. I have not eaten anything all day. I was stuck in an elevator for two hours and the ER for another three. I think I deserve it don't you?"

Tony leaned over and kissed her gently. "Yes, you do. I'll be back soon." He got his keys and wallet and walked out the door.

A half hour later when Tony returned, Ziva had dozed off on the couch. He placed the pizza on the coffee table, opened the lid and wafted the smell toward her. Her eyes popped open and she immediately sat up and rubbed her hands together, licking her lips. He couldn't help but laugh, especially when she grabbed a piece right out of the box. "Hey, hey I didn't even get plates yet."

She chuckled back at him. "I'm sorry, I'm just so hungry."

"Well, go right ahead. Do you want a drink?"

"You did not happen to get red Kool-Aid while you were out, did you?"

Tony stood up fully and pulled a pack of Cherry Kool-Aid out of his back pocket. "I had a feeling you would be wanting some, based on the last few days."

"Oh my God. I love you."

Tony leaned down to her and kissed her lightly. "I'll go ahead and make this."

"Thank you, Tony."

When Tony returned with two glasses of Kool-Aid and some paper plates, he saw Ziva hiding something behind her back. "What do you got behind your back there, Ziva?" He asked.

"The movie we are watching tonight." She said, grinning.

"And what is that movie?"

Ziva brought the DVD out from behind her back. "It is called 'In the Womb.' It is about fetal development and I think you are going to enjoy it."

Tony shrugged. "Okay, I'll watch it. Just because I love you." She smiled and handed him the DVD and he put it into the player.

As the film started there was an awkward silence between Tony and Ziva. The only sounds were from the TV and their chewing. As it began with animations of conception, Tony made some noises of disgust, but always followed with a laugh. Later when it showed the baby starting to develop Tony exclaimed, "Whoa that is so cool."

Ziva smiled at his interest. "I know. Pretty neat right?" She said snuggling into his side.

"Yeah it is."

Soon the filmed depicted a baby swimming underwater and Tony had to comment. "It looks like the cover of that one 'Nirvana' album. Only that baby was swimming in a real pool, not a weird CGI one." Ziva chuckled at his statement.

At about the second trimester, "Wait, wait, wait, they swallow their own pee?" He asked, shocked.

"Mhmm. Cool, huh?" Ziva said.

"Uh, creepy, but cool in a way."

When the movie reached the birthing stage Tony had a hard time keeping his eyes open. Ziva playfully punched him in the arm. "Oh come on, it is not that bad. You are going to have to see this in a few months." She pulled his hand from his eyes and placed it on her stomach where the baby was kicking, which took him by surprise.

"Oh, well look at that."

"Yeah, she is kicking up a blizzard in there."

"Storm, but yeah she is. She's strong, just like her mother." Tony looked at the TV as it was talking about labor. A sad look came over his face.

"What is wrong?" Ziva asked stroking his hand.

"I am just afraid of seeing you in so much pain. I know you have endured a lot of pain before, but this is going to be different."

Ziva leaned back and turned his face towards her. "Tony, please do not worry about me. I will be fine. I know that this pain is going to be different, but I have actually paid attention in those birthing classes. I am going to be okay, even if I am in labor for a whole day, I will be okay. I have learned a lot and I am still learning, but this baby will get out. I think I can handle this."

"I know you can handle this, but seeing you in pain is hard for me. Will you let me try and help you through it like they said in the class."

"Of course I will let you. I want you there with me to help bring this baby into the world. I love you."

Tony smiled, touched at her words. He leaned forward and kissed her deeply, her arms going around his neck. A few seconds later they heard a shrill cry come from the TV as the baby was born. He gazed at the screen. "Wow, that's amazing, really."

"It is, isn't it? You are going to have to get used to that sound."

"Heh, yeah I know."

As the movie ended Ziva went to her purse near the door and pulled out a small piece of paper. She walked over to him. "While you were talking to the nurse and filling out my paperwork, Dr. Jackson printed this out for me. She showed him a photo of the 3D ultrasound earlier that day. "Even though she only did it for a minute she still wanted to know if I wanted a picture."

Tony took the photo from Ziva and looked at his baby girl's face. "She's already beautiful." He said, smiling at her.

"Well, this is not even the real thing."

"Then that means she will be even more beautiful." He rubbed her cheek and she smiled and took the picture from him. "I don't know if you noticed, but she has your big fat nose, Di-Nose-o."

Tony looked at her confused. "What? No, she doesn't." He took the picture back and studied it. "Well, I'll be damned. She does. Di-Nose-o, that's a good one."

"I told you so and thank you."

They both paused for a moment just staring at the picture. Tony's hand went to Ziva's stomach. "Ella. I like the name Ella." Ziva's hand started to play with his hair.

"I like that too. It's cute."

"What do you say? Are you ready for bed?"

"Of course."

"I don't know if I'll be able to sleep after that afterbirth part, though."

Ziva laughed. "Oh come on, don't be such a, well," she looked down at her stomach, "you know." She said standing up.

This made Tony huff sarcastically, "I'm not, I'm not."

"Okay, okay, let's just go to bed, I'm exhausted."

"I know you are. Let's go." He yawned.

Both Tony and Ziva were able to sleep peacefully that night. All the events of the day took a lot out of them. But at the end of the day all that mattered was that Ziva and the baby were both safe and healthy.

A/N: There it is, short and sweet. I want to do a chapter where Gibbs and McGee find out the baby's a girl, but I thought that would be too repetitive and/or boring. Let me know what you think. I really appreciate the support.
Notice: Just because I mention a name in a chapter, and Tony and Ziva both say they like it, doesn't mean that is going to be the baby's name. I don't mind name suggestions, but I already have a name in mind for the baby. Who knows, I may change the name if there is a suggestion I like.

On a different and unrelated note: I just got an XBox 360 and Bioshock Infinite. If any of you have played that game, how did you effectively toggle the camera, aim, shoot, and move at the same time? I'm having a real tough time with it. I was moving the camera so much it was giving me a headache. I don't know if it's because I am not used to the controls, or what. Please PM me if you can give me any advice. (don't leave it as a review because it has nothing to do with the story)
