Only a few chapters left, not sure :)

Please revieww

Gibbs walked the steps down to Abby's lab. "Talk to me Abs"

Abby put a hand in front of his mouth "Shhh" she whispered, "Becca's asleep"

"No, I'm not" she walked through the glass doors that divided the lab in two, and looked at Gibbs. He carefully studied her, she had looked so scared before. Tony and Ziva walked out, having noticed that Rebecca left.
"Hey boss, what's up?" they locked eyes. Ever so slightly, Gibbs nodded towards the door, and Tony took the hint. He found something.

Gibbs turned towards Becca again and knelt down in front of her. "Hey sweetie, you can't go home just yet ok?"

"Why can't I go with Tony?" Shouted Becca.

Gibbs sighed. "Well, it's because..."
Once again, he was cut off, this time by Tony.
"Boss it's ok if she wants to sleep at my place." He said, biting his lip, hoping that he would agree. He felt better knowing where she was. Gibbs nodded. "Ziva, go with them!" He ordered. Gibbs raised his eyebrows in surprise as she didn't complain about it; Tony didn't even make a dirty comment about her spending the night. He shook it off and watched them leave. "What have you got, Abby?"


Tony and Ziva walked the steps up to his apartment, he was holding a sleeping Becca in his arms, and he has a small, goofy smile on his face. As soon as he was in front of the door, he stopped. Ziva ran into him.

"Ouch, Tony, what is it?" she asked angrily. He looked at her, slightly embarrassed.
"ehm the key is in my pocket, could you get it for me?"
Ziva chuckled, and put her hand in his back pocket. She rummaged around for a while, but couldn't find the key anywhere. Ton'y embarrassed smile turned into a smug grin.

"When you're done groping me, the key is in my front pocket." She hit him in the shoulder, shook her head, and reached into his pocket. She felt him shiver and smirked; she opened the door and walked right in, preceding Tony. She loved his apartment, she loved the leather couch, she loved how this was all so un-tony, and she loved being in it.

Rebecca began to stir in Tony's arms
"Hey kiddo, let's go to sleep" he said lovingly. She nodded and he took her to his bed, tucked her in and came back to sit next to Ziva on his sofa.

For a while they just sat next to each other, their thighs touching and their fingertips grazing each other. After a while, Ziva couldn't hold the silence anymore and she whispered "Tony, what's wrong?"

He sighed. "This is not gonna end well, for anyone. I mean, Becca's dad is going to go to prison and..."

"you don't know he's gonna go to prison. He might be innocent" Ziva said it, but neither believed it. Tony gave a joyless laugh.
"One: you don't really believe that, and two: Becca might just be better off without her father; have you seen how scared she was? It killed me."

He sighed again, turned towards Ziva and hugged her. He breathed in, and then breathed out, until he managed to calm down and relax; Ziva was enjoying having his arms around her, and was trying to savour it while it lasted.
They pulled away from each other and she smiled at him. They leaned in, both moving closer and closer...

"TONY!" Becca came running towards them, tears streaking her face, now sobbing in Tony and ZIva's arms.
"Becca what happened?" asked Tony. She sat on his lap, and whispered "I had a bad dream" before starting to cry again.

Ziva brushed her hair back and quietly asked what the dream was about. "I dreamed that daddy shouted at Hayden again, and I am scared"

"Is that why you didn't want to see him before? Because he hurt Hayden?" She nodded. "I saw them together, he was really angry for something and Hayden was angry too, but different angry, he was good angry, and daddy was bad and scary." She paused and then continued. "He didn't know I was there, because I ran away."

Tony held her close as he exchanged a knowing look from Ziva. "It's ok now sweetie." then turned to talk to Ziva.
"you can share the bed with her, i'll sleep on the couch."

She nodded and pecked him on the cheek.

"Everything's gonna be fine, Tony"
He watched her walk away.
"No, it's not"
