sorry guys, I did not realise I was even working on a story anymore until I saw a couple of reviews and alerts from you. And now I come with this crappy smal chapter. But Don't worry, I have vacation as off now and Chapter 6 is already finished so it should go a little faster from now on.
Chapter 5
The following morning Ziva and Jimmy were awakened by Drew calling for his father. Barely awake and eyes not even open yet, Jimmy called back to him, "Living room, Buddy."
It was then that it registered to Jimmy and Ziva that they were still leaning against each other; they separated just as Drew walked in the room still wearing his 'Hulk' pajamas. Ziva stood up and told Jimmy she was going to wake the girls. As she entered the room she softly woke them by singing a Hebrew lullaby. For a moment it brought Jimmy into some sort of a trance. The fact that Ziva could sing was just one more thing he did not know about her. It was when Drew said that he was hungry that Jimmy was shaken awake once again.
Hearing her mother sing, Miriam awakened. "Ima," she mumbled, her voice still sleepy.
"Yes, darling, I'm here. It is time for both of you to wake up."
It took a few minutes for the girls to wake up enough to follow their mother to the kitchen. They sat down and Jimmy placed a bowl of oatmeal in front of them, they mumbled a good morning and thank you to him before they slowly started to eat.
"You want anything? I've got bread if you'd like some toast."
Ziva nodded and Jimmy showed her where everything was and they started to eat. After helping Jimmy clean up Ziva grabbed her phone and called Debby.
"Shalom, Debby."
"Ziva! What can I do for you?" The only person in the world who could be so happy and full of energy this early in the morning would be Debby. Well, okay, and Abby.
"I feel really bad for asking you this on a school day, but do you have many classes today?"
"Nothing I can't get out of, why?"
"The twins had a fever yesterday," she explained, feeling both of their foreheads. They were cooler than yesterday but still warm. "They still have a little bit of a temperature. Could you possibly watch them today? I will need you to be at my place in half an hour."
"I'll be there!"
After their goodbyes Ziva hung up. She put on her coat and helped the twins into theirs. Still not feeling very well, the girls slowly shuffled to the end of the hallway.
Ziva turned around, almost bumping into Jimmy. Her eyes rose to meet his and she put her hand on his cheek."Thank you. For everything." Slowly she removed her hand and turned around to follow Ariella and Miriam out of the house.
As he watched Ziva walk away, Jimmy realized he had never seen this side of her. She seemed the opposite of the Ziva he knew at work. Smiling he shut the door and turned all of his attention to Drew.
