SHE ONLY REMEMBERS YOU
Tony and the rest of the team were at the hospital after Ziva was knocked unconcious at one of the crimes scenes. She hadn't regained conciousness yet but the team was eager to visit her. The doctor said that once they got her settled in her own room, she could start having visiters.
"Tony, will you stop pacing the floors like this. How is that going to make David wake up any faster?" Getting quite annoyed with the Senior Agent at the moment. "I know but I hate when things like this happen to her, Boss and I can't do anything about it." Now kicking one of the chairs in frustration. "Yeah, I hear ya, Tony. I worry about all 6 of you 24/7. It's not the kind of job where you can't exacly not worry but you need to stay calm, for Ziva's sake." Tony just shook his head and sat down next to his boss. "I'll try my best."
Tony and Gibbs were the only ones in the waiting room at the moment. McGee and Abby were getting themselves coffee and Ducky was conversing with Ziva's doctor about her condition. Ducky returned with a worried look on his face and Tony and even Gibbs didn't know if they wanted to hear what he had to say. "Well, we can go in one by one and visit our dear Ziva but we can't stay for long. Who wants to go first?" Tony was quick to want to go in but Gibbs really thought it should be him to go in first. He would never admit it but he felt giulty over what happened with Ziva and after all these years, Ziva was like his daughter. Tony wasn't happy about being left behind but he understood how Gibbs felt. "I'll be quick, Dinozzo." Patting him on the shoulder.
Gibbs slowly walked into Ziva's room to see Ziva laying there, not moving at all. He hated seeing Ziva like this and he knew how much she would hate it if she even knew what was going on with herself. He sat down in the chair that was offered to visiters. He just wasn't used to showing affection with anyone these days but he still grabbed Ziva by the hand and aqeezed it tight. "Oh, Ziva. I know this is all part of the job but that doesn't mean I have to except us getting hurt like this. You saved my life while in my own basement. I will return that favor someday." Suddenly Ziva's eyes started to open and Gibbs quickly took notice to that. He wanted to get the doctor but for some reason, he just stayed with her.
Ziva was barely awake or aware of anything that was going on but she kept repeating the same thing over and over again. "Where is he?" Gibbs tried his hardest to understand her. He even put his ear closer to her but she kept repeating the same thing, "Where is he?" "Where is who, Ziva?" Suddenly Ziva looked right at Gibbs with this look of fear and confusion on her face. "Who are you?" Gibbs just looked at her, equally confused when he realized that her memory must of been affected. "It's me, Ziva. It's Gibbs." "Who?" Starting to get frustrated. "Ziva, it's Gibbs. We're all here, Me, Abby, Ducky, McGee, and Tony." "Tony, I want to see Tony. I do not know who the hell the rest of you are but I want to see my boyfriend." "Boyfriend?"
Tony went back to pacing again when Gibbs and the doctor walked over to talk to him. He suddenly felt like something was very wrong with his partner. "What? How is she? Can I see her?" Gibbs knew he would have to explain what was going with Ziva but he didn't really know how to tell him. "Boss, can I see Ziva now?" Wondering what was taking so long for anyone to talk. "First off, Dinozzo, Ziva is awake and yes, you can go see her." "Ok, great." Trying to walk off but Gibbs stopped him. "Tony, I'm not finished so will you just listen to me for a minute." Trying to get through to his agent. "Ok, I'm listening." "When you get in there, I want you to be aware of the things she might be saying." "What do you mean, the things she might be saying? What's going on, Boss?" "Tony, she only remembers you."
