Tony walked up to Kate and woke her up for her last day at work.
"Are you sure you want to go today Kate especially after how you were feeling last night and earlier." Tony said worried
" Yeah sure I'm Tony...I want to go and say goodbye to everyone and besides I will be relaxing . No running around I promise"
Tony shot her back a concerned look.
"I promise Tony...really." She kissed him on the lips and put her hands on his face and kissed him again. "I'll be fine, don't worry so much"
Tony put his arms around her and embraced her carefully and kissed her back.
She started walked to Bailee's room and Tony watched her leave.
"But I do worry Kate." he said quietly.
"Bailee come on you have to go to work today..." Kate tapped her shoulder. "Agent DiNozzo"
"reporting for duty ma'am..." Bailee said half asleep.
Bailee was now 5 and her hair was down to the middle of her back, even longer than before.
Her bangs grew down to her shoulders which shaped her face nicely.
Kate just giggled and Bailee sat up, got her slippers on and went downstairs.
Kate got undressed and got into her black maternity dress skirt and blouse and black jacket. Then headed downstairs.
Tony was dishing out her eggs and cheese with tiny cut up italian sausages but not to hot and spicy just perfect for her little tender tummy.
"morning daddy..." she said rubbing her eyes and trying to climb to her little chair.
Kate picked her up and sat her on a stool with a safety seat built on to it that Gibbs did for her.
There was a knock at the door and Kate walked over to answer it.
"Ziva..." Kate said surprised.
"Oh I'm sorry should I come back Kate?" Ziva said looking at her watch.
"Oh no please come in..would you like something to eat or drink?" Kate said closing the door
"Coffee please." Ziva said watching Bailee run at her from the kitchen
Bailee came running to the foyer to see who it was.
"Hi Ziva!" She squealed and leaped into hug her.
"Hi Bailee how are you?" Ziva said playfully and hugged Bailee
"Good!" Bailee said loudly and hugging Ziva back tightly.
"Okay Bailee I need to breathe." Ziva said faking to be out of breath, which made Bailee laugh.
Ziva got up and started to walked playfully toward Bailee like a zombie.
"I'm going to tickle you..." Ziva said walking toward her moving her fingers to tickle her.
"Oh no...ahhhh" Bailee said as she ran into the livingroom.
Bailee jumped onto the couch and Ziva picked her up and started tickling her and blowing on her neck which made Bailee laugh loudly.
"Bailee come finish your food please." Tony called to his daughter.
In the kitchen Kate was pouring Ziva coffee and handed it to her when she came in.
Bailee was sitting at the table eating her pancakes her daddy had done for her that morning.
"Thank you." as she took a sip.
"This is really good coffee...what kind is it?" Ziva said taking another sip of the good coffee.
"it's Irish Cream...do you like it?" Tony asked
"Oh yes very much thank you. It's warm." Ziva said as she took another sip.
"Is it cold out Ziva?" Kate asked
'Oh no I just had a really cold coffee this morning...that's all" Ziva said as Bailee got down out of her chair with her mom's help and put her plate in the sink.
"Okay lets get you dressed...oh I have to get gas in the car." Kate exclaimed
"and I have to get dressed..." Tony said.
" I'll get her dressed... you go and get ready" Ziva cut in.
"Yay Ziva! Yay, Yay, Yay! Bailee screamed excitedly
"Alright her clothes are on my bed Ziva...thank you so much." Kate said walking out the door.
"no problem it's my pleasure." Ziva said happily.
Ziva headed upstairs with Bailee to get her dressed and sighed as she entered the room.
"Ziva I want these on today." Bailee said pointing to her clothes Abby had bought her which were in the closet, a black tank top with "rocker baby" on the front in pink letters and black flared pants not jeans.
"okay lets get you in a bath first Bailee." Ziva said as she walked in the bathroom.
Ziva brought her in the bathroom and filled the tub and put her in. Ziva took the cloth and started to soak down her back and wash her as Bailee played with her toys.
She took a bucket of water and told Bailee to cover her eyes.
Ziva poured the water over her head and squirted some shampoo on her head and started to scrub her head while being funny and singing like she was preparing food.
Tony walked in an stared at Ziva.
"Hi Tony." Ziva said happily.
"I didn't know you were good with kids Ziva." Tony said admiring the love Ziva had shown for Bailee.
"It is probably just my instincts." Ziva smiled.
"Good instincts." Tony said seriously.
Ziva lifted her out of the tub and wrapped a towel around her.
"Come on let's get your clothes on." Ziva said as Bailee sat on the bed.
Tony smiled at her and went downstairs to waited for Kate to come back.
Kate drove into the drive way and beeped her horn.
Ziva and Bailee raced downstairs and out the door.
