"Mr. DiNozzo?"

A petite nurse in her thirties had come into the waiting room, with a name tag reading MARCIA. She held a clipboard and smiled a red lipstick grin. "She's asking for you."

Tony jumped up from his seat in an armchair and nearly tripped over his overnight bag. It was almost 11:30 in the evening. Most of the team had left around 7:00 or 8:00, but Tony had insisted on staying overnight. Abby had gone to his house and packed a bag for him, dropping it back off at the hospital before going home.

He had been sitting for a while in the waiting room. She had gotten out of surgery around 9:00, and still hadn't regained consciousness. Tony had passed the time mostly by flipping through an old issue of Us Weekly from 2002, but he couldn't remember anything about it. He was so worried about Ziva, the words didn't even register in his mind. Also, he didn't really care.

Tony followed the nurse down the hall towards Ziva's room. "How is she?"

"Miss David is a strong one. Not many people can take a bullet to the abdomen and survive."

Tony smiled. "That's her. Strong."

"Yeah, for a while we weren't really- turn left here- sure she was gonna make it. There were some complications to the surgery. But she made it after all. She's even healing very fast, too."

"When did she wake up?"

"Oh, about 45 minutes ago. She couldn't really talk, so we had to give her some water, some non-solid food. She started asking for you the minute she could speak. Are you her fiance or something?"

"Boyfriend. But sometimes I wish I was her fiance."

Marcia giggled. "Oh, that is too cute. I wish my husband were that romantic."

Tony was silent. They came to a stop in front of her hospital room.

"Alright, here we are! Room 231. She'll be so pleased to see you."

Tony grinned with his famous DiNozzo charm. He couldn't wait to see Ziva. "Thanks Marcia."

"Of course."

Tony watched as she walked down the hall and entered a room about six doors down. Then he turned to the door. He was finally going to see her. He couldn't wait for her smile, her laugh, her voice. Heck, even her name would make him happy right now.

Tony was about to grab the knob when the door opened and a young woman stepped out. She was short, lean, Asian. She wasn't dressed in the standard scrubs for Bethesda doctors and nurses,wearing a pair of white pants with a navy blue blazer instead. She carried a clipboard that said Pink+Blue Medical Center.

"Hi! You must be Tony. I'm Doctor Cameron."

"But you don't work here."

She smiled. "Oh, no. I'm Miss David's ob/gyn."

"Well, it's great to meet you."

"You too." She started down the hallway.

"Wait!" Tony turned around. "You're her ob/gyn?"

Dr. Cameron turned around abruptly. "Um, yeah."

"Why are you here?"


Hey guys! Hope you liked this chapter. I hope you guys understand what's happening. (Hint hint: ob/gyn) I'm hoping to post a few more chapters, then I'll be done. Thanks for all the great reviews. They make me so happy and motivate me to write.

I love to write Tiva, and also really would love to write some Densi stuff too. If you have any suggestions that you would like to see me write, leave them in the comments and I'll do my best!

xoxo, J
