Chapter Three: A Toast
"One Week, oh one week" Tim McGee says to himself, getting dressed in the bathroom. His partner, soon to husband is in the shower. "Hey are you excited"? Tony asked Tim. "Of course, I can't wait to hold your hands and proclaim our love to everyone". Tim responds. "Yes, I can't wait either, but I was talking about your party with Abby, Ziva, and Ducky". "Oh, I forgot, I was so busy planning the wedding, I just forgot, ugh I don't even what time it's at..." Tim's sentence dies off as he leaves, Tony yells towards Tim peaking his head out of the shower "Tim, it's on the calendar in the kitchen, I think it's at 6pm though" Tim rushes back with the sticky note that has the information on it. "6 pm, Ziva's house, oh how fun will that be. Love you so much Tony, got to go, Gibbs wants me to hack the CIA Mainframe again" Tim says waiting for Tony to step out of the shower. Tony steps out, "Love you too, McGeek" and kiss Tim on the cheek and then the lips. Tony continues to get ready for work, he's ready a little ahead of schedule, so he decides to lay out his clothes for the party. Tony enter his closet which has been over filled the combination of Tim's and his clothes. "I really need a new closet" he says to himself. "Let's I think these pants with...this shirt and...this jacket...hmm not I like this sweater better, besides it's just my bachelor party with Gibbs and Vance". Tony lays out his outfit on his bed, which looks very small and he wonders how the two of them fit on it. "Wow this house seems to shrink more and more everyday" with that said Tony grabs and apple and heads off for NCIS.
"Good morning, Angela; how are you"? Tony asks the secretary as he does everyday. "Oh, its great, my husband and I just bought our first house together. But we have so much stuff to move, its exhausting. How's everything with the wedding"? She asks. "It's great we have practically everything done; the venue, flowers, cake, table setting, but Tim and I are still fight about chair covers and whether or not to serve alcohol. What do you think chair covers?" Before Angela could answer Tony heard "Tony, Tony, HEY YOU WITH THE GREAT ASS" that got his attention, and not a surprise to see Tim peeking around the cubical yelling at him. "Nice seeing you, Angela" Tony says, seeing the small giggles coming from Angela.
"Thanks future husband, now everyone wants to look at my ass" Tony says to Tim, Tim replies by saying, "well they all know, it's mine" Tim said jokingly.
6:00 pm that night
"When in the hell will you finish that boat, seriously, its taken you like 20 years" Tony says to Gibbs as Gibbs pours Tony, Vance and Himself scotch.
"Well all we need now is strippers" Vance teases and Tony almost atomatctically responds "Really Vance I had know idea you liked, men dressed as fireman and policemen stripping and shaking their dicks in your face" Tony says teasing Vance.
"Common Tony that was a low blow." Vance snaps back
"Alright you two don't strangle each other" Gibbs says jokingly
"A Toast, to our co-worker, friend, and lucky man Tony Dinozzo" Gibbs says as he raise's his glass. They three bump their glasses together in a toast. "Here your are Tony" Gibbs says as he hands Tony a package "from Vance and I". Tony opens the box to reveal a 50 year old bottle of red wine. "We were hoping you and Tim could share on the wedding day as, the Groom's toasting wine.
"Thanks guys, Tim and I will certainly enjoy this". Tony says raising his eyebrows (clearly he has had a bit too much scotch, but Gibbs pours another rocks glass full of scotch.
Meanwhile at Ziva's
"Aw you guys got gifts, you know you didn't have to" McGee says as he receives his four gifts. "Wait who got me two gifts"? McGee looks up at his friends. "Oh, Tony got you one" Abby says.
"Well hurry up Timothy open your gifts" Ducky says urging Tim to open his gifts.
"Alright gift number one...it's from Abby" Tim begins to talk. "Did the skulls give it away, McGee" Ziva teases.
Tim opens the very large bag to discover a frame or sort wrapped in brown evidence bags. He tears the paper...It's me and Tony together, kissing in Abby's lab. "It looks great and all, I must say those pants on Tony really show off his butt...whatever happened to those. Oh yes, Abby how did you take this photo I don't think you were there that day. Because I running ballistics evidence and Tony surprised kissed me"? He asks as everyone turns their head towards Abby awaiting an answer.
"I have several camera running 24 hours a day for my protection, after what happened with my crazy boyfriend of a lab tech" Abby says plainly. "OK...moving on now.." McGee says slightly creeped out.
"Gift number two...it's from Ducky". He opens again a large but slender package, "Ducky you didn't...Tony will love these". Tim says unveiling a brand new set of gold clubs. "Thank you Ducky" Tim says to Ducky. "Gift number three...from Ziva David". A small package, inside it contains a few items, the first of which is a box, That has the word 'Right' painted on it. "Ziva you keep track of when Tony, You, and Me are right. Well I see Tony's is not very full and yours is practically overflowing. Thanks Ziva" Tim says sitting the box down. The Second in the box is some sort of swish army knife. The last Item (well really two of the same) is key chains, with a photo of Gibbs, Abby,Ziva,Tony, and Timothy. The reverse depict photos of Ducky, Jenny, Palmer, and Kate. Tim begins to tear up "Ziva. Thank you so much, these mean the world to me" Tim says giving everyone a big hug. Tony gift was last and for good reason, It was sale receipts and a deed to a new home. Tim began to cry tear of joy as Abby and Ziva look over to see what upset Tim. Once again they hug and congratulate Tim and Tony on a wonderful life together and beautiful future.
