F - Flavor
Set in Future Tiva
"Mommy, Daddy, can we go now?" Leah asked rather impatiently, jumping up and down with an excited smile on her 5 yeas old angelic face.
"Almost sweetheart, we just have to wait for Mommy to finish getting ready" Tony answered, smiling inwardly at his daughter's eagerness – she is just like me, he thought to himself.
"Why is she taking so long?" Leah asked her Dad, who was resting on the sofa while Leah waited anxiously by the door. "She looks pretty, she doesn't need to get ready. Let's go!"
Tony laughed as he motioned to his daughter to come sit with him. She did and Tony snuggled her into his lap. "I know, and I'm glad you know, baby. Mommy is beautiful when she wakes up in the morning without even trying, but you know with your little brother on the way she has to take extra time for everything." Little did Tony know that Ziva had standing behind them in the doorway, hearing every word and smiling thoughtfully and happily at Tony. Suddenly Leah, with her inherited ninja-like abilities, turned around to see her.
"Mommy, you're ready!" She got up and ran towards her, being extra careful to not hurt er Mom's pregnant stomach bump.
Ziva laughed and smiled over at tony, who smiled back. "Yes, baby, let's go."
Tony rose and grabbed his car keys, then headed for the door, holding it open for Ziva and Leah. "After you two ladies,: he said as he did a mock bow ad held his arm out in a gesturing motion. The girls just laughed as they stepped over the threshold, and each of them took one of Tony's arms, making their way to the parking lot.
They entered the ice cream shop 10 minutes later, and immedietely Leah ran over to the display to pick the flavor she wanted. While she was doing that, Tony and Ziva grabbed a table close by, with ach having an eye on Leah. While she was busy looking eagerly at all of the flavors, Ziva turned to Tony and stroke his face, gently movig it so it was in line with her own.
"I heard what you said before, to Leah." Ziva took his right hand in both of hers and smilied. "Thank you. It was really beautiful."
Tony cupped her face and kissed her very softly, yet tenderly, on the lips. "Anytime. It's true, though. You are beautiful, every second of the day."
Ziva smiled again. "Especially the part about our baby. He'e coming very soon, you know."
"I know, and I'm so excited. Even when you're breaking my hand and all sweaty and disheveled you'll still be a sight to see."
She laughed. "I'll remind you of that,"and she leaned forward to kiss him about 5 seconds, Leah came bouncing over.
"Mommy, Daddy, I'm ready! Come on! Are you ready yet?" she asked quizzically as she realized they never got up to look at the display.
Tony and ziva exchanged secret smiles with each other. Then Tony said, "Yes, baby, we know exactlywhat we want. Let's go!" Leah smiled and ran up to get in line, while Tony followed with Ziva at his heels – but not before he winked at Ziva and she smirked back, knowingly.
