Gibbs and Ducky looked on as Constance paced nervously in a large waiting room, she stopped in front of Ducky..."Can't you find something out, Ducky?"

"Are you the family of Ziva Di..."...The black nurse started to speak.

"Yes..."...Constance quickly replied, turning towards the woman, Gibbs and Ducky stood from their chairs, moving behind Constance..."She's my mother, is she okay?"

The nurse nodded..."She's just out of surgery, there were a few complications, but she's doing fine."

"What kind of complications, nurse?"...Ducky inquired, fidgeting with his hat.

"With the size of the baby and her narrow pelvis and her weak..."

"Size of the baby?"...Constance questioned.

"Yes."...She looked down at the clipboard she's carrying..."He weighed 8 lbs 14oz and was 21 and half inches long."

"Wow, that's bigger than me!"...Constance face lit up as she smiled enormously..."Is he okay? Can we see him? Which way? That way?"...Constance pointed towards a doorway.

Ducky grabs Constance's shoulder, squeezing it..."Let her answer, my dear."

Constance brought her hands up to her face..."Sorry."...She said through muffled hands.

The woman nods..."He's fine, sweetie and soon."

Constance jumped into her arms, hugging her..."Thank you!"

The elevator doors open, McGee and Abby stepped out, seeing Constance and the nurse hugging. Abby runs over, clutching Bert tightly under her right arm. She opens her arms, hugging them both..."Why are we hugging?!"

The nurse stepped back as Constance and Abby embraced..."It's a boy!"...Constance joyfully announced.

"YAY!"...Abby cheered as they hopped in unison in a circle, laughing, crying. Abby stepped back..."How's Ziva?"

"Tired."...Ducky spoke, moving back from talking to the nurse..."Her contractions were quite poor and she didn't have the strength, the poor dear passed out."

"Aww, Ziva."...Abby frowned, hugging Bert tightly against her chest, a fart noise escapes from the stuffed hippopotamus.

Gibbs moved behind Abby, placing his hands on her shoulders..."She'll be fine, Abs."...He pressed his lips against the back of the head.

Abby turned, quickly hugging Gibbs with all her might, another fart noise escaped as Bert was caught between them.

"Why did you bring him anyway?"...Gibbs laughed.

"Because he always makes me feel better when I'm sick, I'm sure it'll do the same for Ziva."...Abby said with a smile.

"Ah, very sweet of you, Abigail."...Ducky replied.

"Group hug!"...Abby said..."Get in everyone, you too, McGee!"

Abby gathered them all in a circle, hugging them all at once.

"You wanted to see the baby?"...The nurse spoke up.

The huddle broke as Constance and Abby lead the charge towards the nurse, smiled plastered across their faces.

Tony sat next to Ziva, she was laying on her back, sleeping peacefully, his forehead pressed against the metal railing on her bed, holding her hand tightly.

A hand touched the back of Tony's hand, he slowly started to raise it..."Ziva?"

"She is still asleep."...Zahav said, petting the back of Tony's hair.

Tony turned his head, seeing Ziva's mother walk around the bottom of the bed, she moved to the opposite of Tony, taking Ziva's other hand, caressing it softly, before brushing her hair out of her face..."Did you get to hold him?"

"No, not yet."...Tony slowly shook his head no.

"You should, it is the greatest feeling in life. I can watch her for you."

"No, I can't...not without her holding him first."...Tony said, lowering his head back down.

Zahav reached across the bed, lifting up on Tony's chin..."You are a good man, my husband is a fool for not seeing it. She is lucky to have you and I am honored to call you, ben."

Tony smiled and closed his eyes..."Todah, Ima."

Zahav smiled and slowly pulled her hand away from Tony's chin..."Have you named him?"

"No."...Tony replied.

"Might I suggest a name, a name that Ziva loves?"

"Please do."...Tony welcomed it.

"Anthony."...Zahav said, letting go of Ziva's hand.

She stepped towards the bottom of the bed, Tony opened his eyes..."You're Nettie, aren't you?"

Zahav stopped, turning towards him, she didn't respond.

"I thought your voice sounded familiar...Oh, God! I wanted to send flowers, but she wouldn't let me, she said she'd kill me."

Zahav chuckled..."I know, she told me."...She grabs a chair, pulling it back to where she was, she sat down..."I named Ziva after my sister, Nettie Ziva Sharon, she died when I was just four."

"Sharon? As in Ariel Sharon? Your father?"

"No. My uncle, but having that name, while it is a honor, it is also..."

"I understand, no worries."...Tony nodded..."So, any embarrassing stories about Ziva? I need all the help I can get. Heh."

--------------

Constance's nose was pressed to the nursery window as a nurse lifted a baby and carefully brought it to the window..."Oh my God, he's so cute, I could just eat him up!"

"Then you're sharing him with me, look at those rosie red cheeks and that hair!"...Abby replied.

"Awwww, I know, did you see that, I saw his wittle bitty tongue."

"You did not!"...Abby said with a hint of jealousy in her voice.

"Did, too. Did, too!"...Constance smirked..."He totally looks like Dad."

"Well, yeah, Constance, he's a boy."...Gibbs chuckled.

"He's a little chubby."...A voice called out.

Constance and Abby looked to their left. Ziva's dad was looking through the glass at his grandson.

"Who's that?"...Abby asked.

Constance leaned to her right and whispered..."That's Ziva's dad, he's a dick."

Eli David pressed his hand to the glass and smiled, a single tear escaped from his right eye and slowly started to crawl down his cheek.

"He's still a dick."...Constance declared.

Abby tapped on the glass and imitated rocking a baby.

"No way, I get to hold him first."...Constance stated.

"Sorry, I called dibs."...Abby replied.

"When, I didn't hear you."

"Dibs."...Abby and Constance turned, seeing Gibbs smirking.

"Oh, no fair, Gibbs, it was between me and Constance, you stole it out from under us."...Abby frowned.

"Second."...McGee spoke up.

"McGee!"...Abby snarled.

"Third."...Ducky called out.

"You, too, Ducky?!"

Ducky just smiled..."I am a doctor, it would be wise for me to be one of the first, to gives my expert opinion on his health and well-being."...Ducky said, trying to keep a straight face, but he couldn't, he started to chuckle.

------------------

Tony laughed..."That can't be true."

"It is, I swear."...Zahav grinned.

"Heh. About three months ago, she..."

"Tony."...Ziva gruffly grunted out.

Tony turned, looking at her, he smiled, standing up, he leaned over her, kissing her lovingly on the lips..."Hi, mommy."

Ziva cleared her throat, her eyes flickering, trying to focus..."Our...baby?"

"He's fine and say hi to..."

Ziva tilted her head, looking away from Tony, seeing her mother..."Ima..."

"Shhhh, my child."...She caressed Ziva's cheek with the back of her fingers..."Rest now."

Ziva closed her eyes and drifted back to sleep.

-------------------

Everyone, from Gibbs, Constance to Eli David stood around the bed as a nurse handed Ziva her son for the first time, she held the tiny baby in her hands, tears of joy sprang from her eyes as lifted him, kissing him softly on forehead..."Shalom, Anthony."

"You can feed him if you want."...The nurse spoke.

"What?"...Ziva said, looking up at the nurse..."Oh, breast feeding, yes?"

Eli, Gibbs and McGee all turned around quickly as Ziva exposed her left breast and like clockwork, the baby latched onto her nipple. She grimaced..."Ow!"

Zahav laughed..."You get used to it."...She smiled.

Tony moved his hand under his son's head, supporting it as he fed..."Wow, look at him go. He's like a machine. Heh."...Tony grinned, he leaned in, kissing him on top of the head and whispered..."That's my boy."
