JULY 20TH 12 NOON

DINOZZO HOUSE HOLD

Tony was laying awake on the couch watching tv. Abby had taken Sierra with her to meet Kate Daisy and Annie at some local mall. Which gave Tony time to relax since the hit and run they had had them in 2 different cities. And he didn't feel like it in the first place. He didn't like leaving Abby or Sierra but sometimes work required it. He looked up at the pictures lining the mantel. One was taken with another couple. It was when they went on their Honeymoon.

FLASHBACK

MAY 18TH 10: AN

BALTIMORE MD

Tony and Abby had agreed to go to Maryland for their Honeymoon. Tony wanted to show her some sights and then they would go on to Minnesota. Tony and her were lying on the hotel bed. They had been in Baltimore for about 2 days. "You know I would love to meet your old partner." Abby said rubbing her hand over Tony's stomach.

"Why do you want to meet my old partner?" Tony asked.

"Cause you talked to Kate about him like he was friend of yours. Seems fair I get to meet him. Past meet future sort of thing." Abby said.

Tony laughed. "Past meet the future?" He asked.

"Yeah. You know he's your past. And now since we're married I'm your future." She said.

Tony chuckled and kissed her head. "Alright how about if I see if I can set up a lunch date with him and his partner now?" He asked.

"Sounds good. I'm gonna go and take a shower." Abby said and got up off the bed. Tony watched her pick up her clothes and go into the bathroom before he picked up his cell phone and dialed directory for Caleb's number. Caleb Monny was Tony's friend when he was in Baltimore he kept Tony out of trouble.

Tony got the number and dialed the number. "Hello." A voice answered.

"Yes I'm looking for Caleb Monny." Tony said.

"Ok hold on one mind. By the way I'm his wife Elanie." The woman said.

"Oh Elainie I didn't recognize your voice. This is Anthony Dinozzo I worked with Caleb in Baltimore." Tony said.

"Oh Tony. It's so good to hear from you. Hold on let me grab Caleb." She said placing the phone down. A minute and his old buddy was on the line.

"Well I'll be damned. When Elainie came and said you were on the phone I couldn't believe it. How the hell you been doing? Caleb asked.

"Fine buddy. How you holding up?" Tony asked.

"Oh I'm fine. So what are you up to?" Caleb asked.

"Well I'm in Baltimore and I was wondering if we could have lunch together." Tony said.

"Sure we can. How about you meet here at the house with Elainie and me. It ain't hard to set 1 more place." Caleb said.

'Well actually 2 more. I got someone I want you to meet." Tony said.

"Sure. About 1?" Caleb asked.

'Sounds good. We'll be there." Tony said.

"Good. Can't wait to catch up." Caleb said hanging up with Tony.

Abby came out of the bathroom and towel dried her hair and smiled. "Get in touch with him?" She asked slipping into her black clothes.

"I did. We're having lunch with him and his wife at 1. Which gives us. About 2 hours. Think we can go another round?" Tony asked standing up and going to Abby's.

Abby just smiled. "Not for us." She said slinking out of Tony's arms and let him shower.

1: PM

MONNY'S RESIDENCE.

Tony and Abby pulled up to the residence and got out. Tony interlaced his fingers with Abby's and made his way up the walk. He was about to knock when Caleb opened the door. "Hey there ole buddy." Caleb said giving Tony a manly hug. "And who is this?" Caleb asked.

"This is my wife. Abby." Tony said.

Caleb smirked. 'Well I'll be. It's nice to meet you." Caleb said shaking Abby's hand. "Well come on in." Caleb said moving out of the way. Abby and Tony made their way into the house and Caleb motioned for them to sit on a couch. He took the chair across from them.

'So you finally got yourself hitched." Caleb said smirking.

"Yep I did. Speaking of hitched where is Elainie?" Tony asked.

'Right here." Elainie Monny said entering the room smiling.

"Good god Tony Dinozzo is so good to see you." She said hugging him.

"Hey Elainie." Tony said returning the hug and sitting down beside Abby.

"Honey this is Tony's wife Abby. This is my wife of 15 years Elainie." Caleb said.

"Nice to meet you. Good to see someone finally tamed Tony." Elainie said winking at Tony.

"I don't know about tamed." Abby said.

"Well at least he settled down." Caleb said.

"Hey I woulda settled down with someone." Tony said.

"Oh sure. I mentioned marriage one time you told me you were still too young." Caleb said.

"Well I was. Besides who was the one who kept complaining Marriage was the death of sex." Tony said.

Elainie turned to her husband. "You said that?" She asked.

"No dear. Thanks Tony." He said.

"How's those kids of yours doing?" Tony asked.

"Oh they're fine. At friends houses now. Caroline is a Sophomore in highschool. And Thomas is going into college next year." Caleb said.

"Thomas would come with Caleb most of the time and he would always want to sit in the car on my lap." Tony told Abby.

"He would cry most of the time when Tony would go to leave." Caleb said.

"Ohh sounds like you had yourself a little fan." Abby said.

"Tony was there when Thomas won his softball game. Thomas ran straight to Tony." Elainie said.

"Yeah made me look like a fool." Caleb said smirking.

"Oh come on big guy he knew I was only gonna be there for a while." Tony said.

"So Tony Caleb said something about you working at NCIS. How do you like that?" Elainie asked.

"It's cool. Our boss is a bit of a hard ass. But he's ok." Tony said.

Abby smiled. "He did give us a week off for our honeymoon." She said.

"Yeah. He ain't so bad after all." Tony said.

"When did you guys get married?" Caleb asked.

"Saturday." Abby said.

"Oh well you certainly are indeed newlyweds. Well Elainie is lunch ready?" Caleb asked.

She nodded. "Right this way." Elainie said.

PRESENT

Tony smirked. The 4 adults had gotten together later on in the week and had promised to keep in touch. Tony was startled when a little body snuggled up to his side. He smirked at Sierra. "I take it you are a tired little girl?" Tony asked.

Sierra nodded her head. "Mommy and Aunt Kate and Aunt Annie made me try on all the dresses for a flower girl." Sierra said.

Abby who was standing at the end of the couch smirked. "It wasn't that bad Si. Besides you got to go and see animals at the zoo." Abby said.

"Did you go to the zoo?" Tony asked.

"Yes I did. I got to see Lions and Tigers and Bears." She said.

"Oh my." Tony said getting a giggle out of the little girl. When Sierra could appreciate the movie Tony had gotten the Wizard of Oz and watched it with her.

"Why don't you go and slip on your dress and model it for daddy." Abby said. Sierra sighed tiredly and walked behind Abby to her room. Tony smiled Sierra got tired a lot easily these days. No warning. After a few minutes he heard someone yell. "Ready?"

"Yeah." He hollered back. When Sierra came out of the hall she was wearing a cream colored dress that was just right for her skin tone.

"Oh Si you looked Gorgeous." Tony said.

"Thank you daddy." She said smiling. She turned to Abby. "Can I go take it off now and take a nap?" Sierra asked.

"Sure baby." Abby said following her back into the room. When Sierra came back out she curled up next to Tony and fell fast asleep.

"Weird she never falls asleep that fast." Abby said.

"All that modeling for you and Kate and Annie and Daisy must've worn her out." Tony said stroking Sierra's little arm. He liked when he got time with his daughter.
