Though other's eyes~4
(Thanks for all the great reviews! Without them I wouldn't be writing.)
It's Christmas and they are six months pregnant. How will they deal with being pregnant at Christmas time? Listen and find out.
Two weeks before Christmas, a dead marine found on the beach. Gibbs, McGee, Tony and Ziva were in the bullpen. "Dead marine,'' Gibbs said.
McGee, Tony and Ziva grabbed their bags.
"Sit,'' Tony said.
"What why?" Ziva said as she saw him stare at her.
"Your pregnant, wait until the Doctor says you can," Tony said.
"I can't go til after Christmas and you now that! Then I probably can't go into the field then."
Tony just gave his 100 watt Dinozzo smile.
"I'll go talk to Ducky,'' Ziva replied.
"Ziva, Abby can't go into the field either,'' McGee said.
"She doesn't go in anyway."
"She does sometimes,'' he stated.
"McGee don't get her started,'' Tony said.
Gibbs walked by and slapped them on the back of the head with a smirk.
"What was that for?" Tony asked.
"Messing with a pregnant woman,'' he replied as he went to the elevator.
After the elevator doors closed, Ziva stood up and went to Abby's lab. She took the stairs, she was tired when she reached Abby's lab, she walked in and Abby was sitting listening to soft music. That shocked Ziva, no rock and roll pounding in her ears. Abby was sipping a café-pow. Her elbows on her desk and her head resting in her hands. Abby saw Ziva, she perked up turning the music off.
"What's with the soft music?"
"Well Ziva, McGee and I were looking at baby stuff. They hear what you say. They hear us right now as I speak. But McGee said if I listen to much rock they might come out singing Skillet or come out deaf."
Ziva grabbed a chair and sat down quickly.
"Hey Zi, why aren't you in the field?"
"Tony won't let me…"
"HA! He really stopped you?"
"Well McGee tried too and Gibbs gave me the look.."
"Oh… So are you ready to see what the gender is?"
"Yep.."
Abby grabbed her cell phone and started dialing a number. She put it up to her ear and it started to ring. After three rings someone said, "hello?"
Abby pushed a button on the phone then it was on speaker.
"Hey Jenny,'' Abby smiled.
"Oh hey Abby,'' Jenny said.
"What's up Jenny? Ziva and I are stuck in the lab…." Abby sounded bored.
"Shalom Jenny,'' Ziva said.
"Shalom Ziva,'' Jenny said.
"Ready to go to the Doctor to see the gender of the little babies?"
"Yes,'' Ziva and Jenny chimed.
Christmas Eve.
Well they know what gender the babies are. Abby's twins are a girl and boy, Jenny's baby is a little boy and Ziva's is a boy too. Three boys and one girl. They are all at Ducky's house for a Christmas Eve party. Gibbs, Palmer, Ducky and the rest of the guy were in the kitchen. While the girls are in the living room. There was an 8 foot tall colorful tree in the corner of the living room with all shape and sizes of gifts under it. Abby and Jenny were listening to Christmas music, Ziva was just staring off into space. Jenny glanced at Ziva then Abby.
"Ziva?" Abby said.
"Yes, Abby,'' Ziva said.
"Why are you spacing out over there?"
"Just thinking,'' she replied to her gothic friend.
"Anything you like to share?" Jenny said.
"Nothing really?" Ziva replied.
"Why not? Huh, is it a secret? What are hiding you from us? Are you two timing on Tony?" Abby said in one breath.
"Breathe Abby, I doubt Ziva is two timing Tony. It would be the other way around,'' Jenny said.
"No it won't. Because Tony would be a dead man,'' Abby said.
"Ziva?"
"Okay if I tell you. Will you be quiet?"
"Yep, well for awhile that is,'' Abby said to her ninja friend.
"I was thinking well of the babies… I'm going to be an Aunt and a mother," Ziva said.
"Yeah I know. Me too, I'm so happy aren't you," Abby asked.
"Yes and no…"
"What do you mean no!"
Ziva stood up and walked around, Jenny and Abby's eyes glued on Ziva.
"How do you know I'm going to be a good mother? I don't know anything about being a mother.."
"OH Ziva, just think back when you were-" Abby said then saw what she said. "Ziva I didn't mean that!"
"See I don't know what it means being a kid. I had no childhood. Tony didn't have a great one either. I'm not going to be a good mother!'' Ziva said.
Jenny stood up and walked over to Ziva when she saw Ziva's eyes water up. Ziva never cried, she was a ninja and they don't cry. But again she is pregnant so it's a ride that goes up and down. Abby ran over to Ziva and hugged her, pulling Jenny into the hug.
"You'll be a good mother. We'll teach you how to be,'' Abby said.
Ziva started to sob, soon she got Abby to sobbing and Jenny couldn't hold it back any longer. They were still sobbing and hugging. The guys were still in the kitchen.
"Food is done!" They called.
No one answered them, Gibbs put a finger up making them be quiet. One by one they started to inch towards the living room. After hearing a sobbing noise, they were in the door way of the kitchen. Palmer saw Ziva, Abby and Jenny sobbing and hugging each other. He turned around to go set the table. Tony turned to him and mouthed the word, "chicken." Palmer nodded and kept walking. Gibbs slowly made his way over to his wife.
"Jen?"
"Jethro?"
"Uh why are y-you all crying?" Gibbs asked.
"Ziva thinks she is going to be a bad mother…"
As Tony heard that he walked over to his wife and pulled her into his embrace. He patted her back and whispered into her ear.
"Who says you'll be a bad mother, because I know your be a great one? Tony said.
"I don't think I will be,'' Ziva stammered.
"Well we'll teach you, that's what parent classes are for right?"
"I thought you say it was stupid," Ziva made a face at her husband.
"Well if it makes you feel better then I'll go,'' Tony said though he didn't want too.
"Yeah we can all go next week!" Abby said, her make up was a bit messed up since she was crying too.
