Long Island History
Chapter 3: 1988
June 1988:
It was a hot day.
"The rich and famous of Long Island are swimming in their pools." Tony said. Some months ago he had turned 17 and his parents said every time: Now you are more childish then before. And it didn't matter to Tony.
"Tony, can you stop it?" Allison hadn't the nerves for it. She had much more problems. She had turned 15 some only 2 weeks after Tony turned 17. And she hated his childish comments.
"God, Tony, do you know that I'm maybe pregnant?"
"I think, because you told it to me about, hhmmm, 27 times?"
"Tony!"
"You aren't pregnant. Or I hope it…"
"We'll see." In her hands she held a pregnancy test. Allison really hoped that she wasn't pregnant. And then the pregnancy test turned blue.
"Tony, I'm pregnant."
"Yeah, I can see it."

July 1988:
"We can't tell it our parents. Come on, Al."
"I'm 3 months pregnant now, in some months we can't hide it anymore. And it's your fault too Antz.
"Can you stop the "Antz"?"
"If you stop "Al."
"Good, Allison. Can we…"
"No, now. This evening. Come one. We have to go downstairs."
This evening they had dinner. Tony's parent and Allison's parent. Till they had to go they hid in the bathroom. Then they went down.
"Here are you."
Tony began to talk. "We have to tell you something."
"Oh, mostly that's a bad beginning." Alexander, Allison's father said. Everybody laughed, except Tony and Allison.
"I'm pregnant." Allison said. Now it was silent.

October 1988:
It was the 23rd October 1989. At this day Luca Anthony DiNozzo was born. As a preemie, almost 12 weeks too early. Tony was sitting next to Allison. She still was sedated. Tony had seen his son before. He was so cute. With blue eyes. Like Allison's. And with Tony's brown hair. He wasn't very heavy and he wasn't very tall. He was too little. Luca needed a cone. He couldn't get much oxygen without. His heart wasn't very good too. Tony was concerned. He hoped that Allison wake up very soon.

December 1988:
It was the 24th December. Today Luca was discharged from hospital. Tony and Allison were so happy.
"Lucy, hey cutie. Now you can go home. You now that?" Allison said with a big smile on her face. Luca giggled.
"Can we go now?" Tony was very impatient. He hated this hospital. And the NICU. The last two months he had spent with his little son on his hospital bed. And every minute he hated the hospital more. But now Luca was healthy.
"Yes, we are going."
"Bye, Mary, bye Sally, bye Cathy, bye Paul." Tony said. They were Luca's nurses and doctors. Allison said the same, and then they went out of the hospital. The snow fell from the sky.
"Now we can celebrate a real Christmas." Allison said and kissed Tony.
