When Ziva got back to the bullpen Gibbs insisted that Tony and Ziva both go home after they finished their reports. They both needed their rest. Tony needed to prop his ankle up and Ziva was trying to adjust to morning sickness. Neither one of them argued with Gibbs and finished their reports fairly quickly. They then went home to get some rest. Once they woke up from a nap they ordered Chinese food to celebrate their pregnancy. Ironically the first movie Tony popped in the dvd player was James Bond's 'Goldfinger' glad that he could actually hear it unlike in his dream. After they finished eating they cuddled up on the couch and watched the movie. Tony was anxious to talk about the baby with Ziva
"Can you believe we are going to be parents!" Ziva said rubbing her for now flat stomach.
"I can't believe it." Tony said placing his on hand on Ziva's stomach. "I want a girl."
"A girl? I figured you would want a boy! A little one to carry on the DiNozzo name."
"Maybe later on.."
"Later on? How many kids are you wanting?"
"A whole house full 4 or 5!" Tony said with a smirk.
"Oh so you have all the fun while I am the one that goes through the pain of having them?"
Tony just laughed at her and put his arm around her "Ok fine two a boy and a girl, but this one has to be a girl."
"Why is that?" Ziva said raising up to look him in the face.
"Because daddy needs a little ninja princess." Tony said smiling at Ziva "Just like her momma." He then pressed his lips against hers.
Ziva knew in the back of her mind they were going to be great parents and Tony was going to make one heck of a father.
After having his dream, Tony wanted parts of it to come true however not all of it. He was enjoying being able to hear his wife's voice and find out she was pregnant. He knew that their small apartment would not be able to hold a family and he began to look for houses. He wanted to give it to Ziva as a present along with a couple of other things he had up his sleeve. He knew he couldn't do any of it until after they told the team about the baby and their marriage however. It just didn't seem right. Tony and Ziva kept quiet about the pregnancy and their marriage at work. Trying to raise suspicion, Ziva would still go out with the team to crime scenes.
The night before the ultrasound Ziva had already laid down in bed. She was nervous about the next day. She was starting to show a little but had not told anyone on the team except Gibbs. She had been wearing bigger sweaters and wearing jackets to cover it up. She was ready to embrace her bump and show it off to the rest of the team. Tony climbed in beside her.
"Are you ready for tomorrow?" he asked.
"As ready as I'll ever be." Ziva answered.
Ziva had considered talking to Tony. She excited when she found out she was pregnant but now she was second guessing herself. Did they really want this baby? After all he was 45 and she was 31. They had their careers going for them. Did they really want to be tied down with a little human? All of that was erased from her mind when Tony laid across the bed and started rubbing and talking to her baby bump.
"Hey there little Katie. How's daddy's little ninja princess?" Tony said in baby talk.
"Tony," Ziva said catching his attention "You just called the baby Katie. We don't even know if it's a girl or a boy yet."
"Zee, I just have a feeling that it's going to be a girl. Tell you what if it's a girl I get to name her and if it's a boy you can name him whatever you would like. Deal?"
"Deal" Ziva agreed. She had a feeling herself. A feeling that she just lost this bet.
Ziva and Tony sat in the OBGYN waiting room quietly. Tony held on to her hand as they waited to be called back. Ziva looked around at some of the other women in the waiting room. They had huge baby bumps and looked like they could deliver at any minute. Ziva looked down and touched her own bump that was still very small. She knew hers would grow to be the size of theirs in time. Tony looked around at some of the ladies that had brought in their newborns with them for their checkup. He couldn't believe that they would be taken a tiny human like that home with them in less than 5months. Both of their concentrations were broken when a nurse came out into the waiting room.
"Mr. and Mrs. DiNozzo?" the young nurse said. Tony and Ziva stood and headed for the nurse who held the door open as she said "You guys can come on back."
Ziva was nervous beyond her wildest imagination. Tony however sat in the exam room with her smiling like a blooming idiot as they took her vitals.
"Everything sounds good. The doctor will be in shortly." The nurse said before walking out.
Ziva was trying to calm herself. When Tony took her hand the world stopped for a moment.
"Everything is going to be ok Zee. The baby is going to be healthy and we are going to be one big happy family." Tony said with his million-dollar smile. His smile could always make her feel better.
There was a knock on the door before it swung open to reveal a tall blonde haired doctor on the other side wearing green scrubs and her white lab coat.
"Mr. and Mrs. DiNozzo, I'm Doctor Courtney Steele. I hear we have a baby on the way?" Dr. Steele asked.
"That's what the pregnancy quiz showed us anyway." Ziva said nervously.
"Pregnancy test sweetheart." Tony said patting Ziva's hand.
"Well how about we listen in on this little one and then we will take a look at it. Would you guys like to know the gender." Dr. Steele asked.
Ziva looked at Tony who was all smiles.
"Yes we would." Ziva said.
"Alright then. Let's take a listen to your baby's heart beat."
Dr. Steele placed the cold stick on to Ziva bare stomach and within seconds there was a thumping sound. It was the sound of their baby's heart beat. It brought tears both to Ziva and Tony's eyes.
"Your baby has a very strong heartbeat which is a very good thing. Now lets take a look and see if we can tell the gender."
Dr, Steele started the 3-D ultrasound and on the screen popped up the little DiNozzo baby.
"There's your baby Ziva." Dr. Steele said.
"Tony! That's our baby!" Ziva said wiping tears from her eyes.
The doctor moved the ultrasound around a little more.
"Well Mr. and Mrs. DiNozzo it looks like you will be having a baby girl very soon."
Ziva looked at Tony. It was almost like he already knew.
"Have you guys picked out a name?"
"Caitlin Jennifer" Tony responded.
The doctor took some still shots of little Katie and printed them out.
Ziva pointed at the screen. "Look Tony she looks a lot like you."
"She's going to be my little Ninja princess just like her momma." Tony said and with that planted a kiss on Ziva's lips.
What surprises does Tony have instore for Ziva? Plus when will they reveal to the team they are pregnant? New chapter up soon! Please review!
