Chapter One
Kate was six months along with her pregnancy and her and Tony couldn't be happier. Tony looked at the paper that Sunday morning. Kate came out of the hall looking sleepy. Her stomach was growing and she had taken everything in her stride up to this point.
"Morning." Tony said and he put the paper down and got her a cup of coffee.
"Hey, did you sleep well?" Kate asked.
"Yeah, of course. You?" Tony called from the kitchen as Kate looked at the paper.
"Yup." Kate said half reading.
Tony came back from the kitchen with some toast and a cup of coffee. He quickly darted back to get some stuff to put on the toast.
"Thanks." Kate said sipping the coffee.
The last six months had been pretty hard on everyone. Abby had started working again and McGee was constantly worried about Rebecca and Abby. Ziva's pregnancy had been flawless and everything was going well. Gibbs had been helping her a lot and got the director to give Ziva extra leave pay because Jacob had been killed on the job and was the father of the baby. Jacob's funeral had been very sad, Kate was especially sad because Jacob had died saving her life. Jacob didn't have much of a family, so it was pretty much NCIS agents and friends that came to the funeral. Ziva had organized everything, making sure it was perfect, and it was. Ziva hadn't blamed anyone about Jacob's death. Kate however felt guilty. She had seem Ziva being torn apart over his death but she eventually found a reason to move on, she had a baby on the way and Ziva was hoping it would be a boy. Kate and Ziva had gotten really close in those few months and even Abby would be friendly and nice to her, whether she was feeling sorry for Ziva or she decided enough was enough with not liking her.
"Earth to Kate?" Tony said and Kate snapped out of her daydream and looked at Tony bewildered. "You ok?"
"Yeah. Just daydreaming. What did you need?" Kate asked.
"Well this is just an idea and you can disagree with it if you want but I was thinking about holding the wedding off until after the baby is born." Tony said.
"Um yeah, that sounds good. I don't think I would be getting into a wedding dress with a pregnant belly anyway." Kate laughed.
"You're amazing you know." Tony said. "Not many people would handle what you've been through and still be able to laugh at the other end."
"Well the past is the past and we need to move on." Kate said as she smiled.
Tony started to clear up. Kate stayed at the table and started thinking again. In three months her and Tony would be parents. She smiled at the thought and placed her hand to her ever-getting larger stomach. She smiled to herself. The phone started to ring and Tony answered it.
"DiNozzo." Tony said and Kate looked up. "Yeah ok Boss. Yes I know. I know Gibbs. I got it." Tony looked frustrated as he hung up I phone.
"What is it?" Kate asked looking at him.
"Well as you know Gibbs has been very stressful in the last 6 months."
"Yeah?" Kate nodded.
"Well he is also looking after Ziva since she has no one else, well Ziva has now gone into labour and the baby room is ready at Ziva's house, but, Gibbs is getting one in his house to make sure she has another place to go if she wants. He wants us to get it ready." Tony said.
"Tony! Do you know what this means?" Kate asked looking excited.
"What?" Tony looked confused.
"We can go through Gibbs' stuff!" Kate jumped up and ran into the bedroom to get changed. Tony smiled. It was funny to see Kate so excited about such small things. Maybe it was the pregnancy. Tony had seen Abby and then Ziva go through it but actually living with a pregnant woman could be easier said then done, so Tony talked to McGee and he said one thing…'Be patient'…Tony had half laughed at this but knew that it was true. Kate came back and smiled at Tony.
"Ready?" Kate asked.
"Just a sec." Tony said and he went into the bedroom and returned with a jacket for her and him. "It's winter Kate, it's going to be cold out there." Tony said and Kate nodded. He was right. It was just coming into December. Kate jumped into the car and they drove to Gibbs' house. Tony's cell rang.
"DiNozzo." He stated. "O yes Boss, we're heading there now. What? Ok. Yeah we're on it. Ok." Tony said.
"Anything?" Kate asked looking over at him.
"Not really, he was making sure we are heading over there." Tony said.
15 minutes later they arrived there.
"Uh, Tony? How do we get in?" Kate asked looking at Tony.
Tony walked up to the door and opened it. "He never locks the door."
"Why?" Kate asked confused.
"With Leroy Jethro Gibbs, you never…ah!" Tony yelled and quickly closed the door.
"What?" Kate asked even more confused. Suddenly Kate heard barking.
"Gibbs has a dog?" Kate asked.
'I didn't know that he did. O um wow! It's big too." Tony said looking at Kate as he looked through the window.
"Maybe he's friendly." Kate said. "Come on, let's try."
"Kate I would really prefer if you didn't…" It was too late; Kate was all ready entering the house.
"Aww Tony, he's so cute and friendly. I want one!" Kate said and Tony peered into the house and saw the German Shepard.
"Kate. We are not getting a dog." Tony said and Kate looked up at him her eyes pleading.
"Aw! Please Tony." Tony sighed and looked at her. "Maybe we will. Now come on, we have work to do.
"Ok." Kate said and she and Tony wandered around trying to find the room where they were setting everything up. "You know Abby and McGee have a dog now." Kate said and Tony looked over at her.
"Really?" Tony asked.
"Yeah, she's the smallest little thing, not sure what breed though." Kate said.
"Yeah well if we do get one, not that we are, but if we do get one, small isn't my thing. Big like this one would do me." Tony said and Kate grinned.
After working most of the morning they were finally done. Of course Tony had told Kate she can supervise, not work.
"You know its going to be nice doing the room at home for our little one." Tony said and Kate smiled.
"Yeah, it sure will." Kate said and she walked up and kissed Tony.
"O please, don't do that in here!" Gibbs' voice came from the door.
"O um hi Boss. Shouldn't you be at the hospital?" Tony stuttered and Kate blushed.
"I came back to see how you were doing but it seems your all good." Gibbs said and they nodded.
"Oo…Tony?" Kate said and she put her hand to her stomach.
"Kate…what's wrong?" Tony asked and he instantly turned around and looked at her concerned. Gibbs was also by her side.
"The baby…it's kicking!" Kate said excited and quickly grabbed both Tony's and Gibbs' hand and placed it on her stomach, and sure enough the baby kicked again. Tony grinned and even Gibbs smiled as Tony wrapped his hands around her and they started laughing.
About ten minutes later they wandered out the front door and got in their cars, Gibbs back to the hospital and Tony and Kate back home.
