Zena was sitting next to her big sister at the kitchen island, drawing with a red crayon.

"Remember, inside the lines, Zenny." Tali told.

"I know." Zena looked up at her sister and smiled and quickly started to draw again.

Tali smiled as she watched her father walk into the room, he was carrying a large vase of long stemmed red roses. He stopped behind Zena and looked over her shoulder. He smiled and pressed his lips to the top of his youngest daughter's head before sitting the roses down in front of his girls.

"Zena." Tony said, getting his daughter's attention. He pressed his finger to the top of the one of the roses, "Wanna help me count?"

Zena looked up from her drawing and smiled, "One." She held up her left thumb and then continued as Tony moved his finger to another rose, then another and so on until she was counting on her second hand, "Nine, ten."

"Heh. You ran out of fingers, huh?" Tony grinned.

Tali extended her hand towards Zena and raised her thumb, "Eleven?" Zena kept counting.

"Uh huh...and?" Tali raised her left index finger.

"Twelve!" Zena exclaimed.

"Good job, babygirl!" The proud papa smiled at Zena, then nodded towards Tali, appreciating her help.

"She's gonna love them, Daddy." Tali smiled back at her father.

"Yeah, but they're just the icing on the cake, that card is solid gold."

"But it red, Daddy." Zena held up her drawing, it said, 'Happy Valentine's Day, Ima' with a big red heart under it.

Tali laughed, "He knows that, Zenny."

Anthony opened up the passenger side rear door and slid several pizza boxes into the back seat. He reached out and grabbed a small, pink bag, "Mom, is this your bag?"

"What?" Ziva turned, looking into the backseat, seeing that Anthony was about to look inside it, "No!" She quickly reached back, grabbing the bag, pulling it from her son's grasp, "Yes, I mean." She placed it between herself and the car door, "Sorry. Thank you. Get in." She rambled.

Anthony closed the door and just shook his head, confused.

"Pizza's here!" Anthony called out, making his way into the kitchen from the garage.

Tali jumped up from the couch and met her brother at the kitchen island, "Three boxes?" She questioned, "Mom and Dad aren't going out to dinner for Valentine's Day?"

"Nope." Ziva answered as she quickly walked past.

"Mom?" Tali's head flung around, seeing a blur of green from her mother's jacket, "What was that about?"

Anthony shrugged, chewing on a piece of pizza, "She's been acting weird since I asked her about her bag."

Tali squinted her eyes at her brother, "Bag? What bag?"

Anthony shrugged his shoulders again and took another bite of pizza.

"Pizza!" Zena exclaimed and ran into the kitchen and over to her brother, "Up." She urged and Anthony lifted her into his arms, "I want that one." She pointed at a large slice of pizza, "No, that one." She pointed at a bigger slice of pizza.

"Why not have both?" Tali smiled at her baby sister.

"I can do that?" A look of absolute joy washed over Zena's face.

Tali laughed, "Yeah, as long as you eat them before 3 eats them all."

"Whaaaaa?" Anthony uttered through his chewing.

Tali rolled her eyes and shook her head, "And don't eat mine, I'm gonna go see what's wrong with Mom." She stated and turned to leave, but stopped in her tracks by her father in front of her.

"What's wrong with your Mom?" Tony asked.

"Dunno." Tali answered, "3 said she was acting weird, I was just gonna..."

"No, no, I'll go, help your sister, huh?" Tony raised his hand to the back of Tali's head and eased it towards him, kissing her on the forehead, "And save some for us from garbage gut over there, would ya?"

"Hey, I heard that." Anthony was offended, but kept on eating anyway.

"Heh. You were suppose to." Tony made it be known.

Tony made it to his bedroom just as Ziva was leaving, "The kids think you're acting weird."

"Weird?" Ziva squinted her eyes, "Me?"

"I dunno, wanna go make out before dinner?"

Ziva just smiled and took a hold of Tony's hand and pulled him bedroom, closing the door behind them.

35 minutes later...

Tali knocked on her parent's bedroom door, she was holding a pizza box, "Mom? Dad? Everything okay?"

"We're fine." Tony called out.

"Are you sure?"

"Yes." Ziva spoke up.

"Okay, I got your pizza." Tali told.

"Just, uh, leave it on the floor by the door." Tony stated.

"What?" Tali question, "On the floor? Really?"

"We are naked, Tali." Ziva bluntly conveyed.

Tali took a step back and gritted her teeth hard and let go of the pizza box, letting it fall to the floor and quickly left.

Tali returned to the family room, "What kind of bag was it?" She asked her brother.

"What do you mean?" Anthony replied.

"Was it pink? Was it cute? Did it look girly?" Tali rallied off several questions in a row.

"Uhh, yeah, why?"

Tali sighed, "You are such a goober."

Tony and Ziva were in bed, eating pizza. She smiled as she chewed, her eyes locked onto her roses and card that were sitting on a table underneath their wall mounted television.

"It's the card, isn't it?" Tony asked.

"Uh huh." Ziva smiled, "Always love getting cards my babies."

"Heh." Tony reveled in knowing he was right.

"Oh." She exclaimed, "I almost forgot your gift." She reached into her nightstand and pulled out the pink bag.

"It's tiny, huh?" Tony grinned, taking the bag from his wife and opened it, "Awww, there's a little heart on it."

Ziva tilted her head towards her husband and smirked, before kissing him on the lips, "Precisely." She kissed him again, "I put a heart on for you and you..." She looked deep into his eyes and smiled and kissed him again, "Yes?"

"Heh." Tony grinned, loving the sound of that.

AN - The thing about the bag may in fact be a true story.

AN2 - Mmmmm, pizza
