Safe Haven: Chapter Five
Tony's POV
Silence incases us when Maggie stops speaking. I feel Ziva shaking in my arms and tears slowly falling down my face. I look Maggie in the eyes and mouth thank you. She just smiles sadly, nods, and stands up. I watch her walk towards us and place a hand on Ziva's shoulder. No sooner than it happened, she walks away from us and out the door.
A few minutes after it shuts, Ziva snaps. Wails come out of her mouth as I rock her back and forth in my arms. When I catch a glimpse at her face, my heart breaks for her. Her eyes are red and puffy as well as her cheeks. Her mouth is hanging open slightly as silent screams come out. Tears are drowning her cheeks in waterfalls. I feel my own tears coming faster now.
"M-my baby-y. My A-ava. I a-am sorry. I am s-so s-so sorry-y."
I wrap my arms tighter around her, hugging her to my chest. Her words turn into mumbling as she presses her head into my chest. I feel my shirt starting to get wet with her tears when Maggie walks in again. She comes up to me and leans her mouth down to my ear.
"She's out of surgery. Everything went well. She'll be in recovery for a few more minutes, but then she will be moved to room 812 on the top floor. If you need anything, I will be her morning nurse. Lydia will be her afternoon nurse and Faith will be her night nurse. You can say in here until Brittany, one of her surgeons, comes to get you. She will take you up to Chava's room. Okay?"
I nod my head and smile weakly at her. She smiles back at me and leans down to Ziva's ear. I can't tell what she says, but I can tell it helps because Zi stops shaking violently in my arms. Maggie straightens up and smiles brightly at me when I say thank you. After she shuffles out of the room, Ziva moves her head to look up at me.
"Thank you, Tony. For everything." I smile down at her broadly.
"Any time, Zi. Any time."
A.N. Sorry this was short guys I just wanted a kind of mushy chapter. Ziva is still OOC and Tony is too a tiny bit. But I wanted to show a more caring side of Tony. Thanks for the reviews guys! And thank you for favoriting my story and me as an author! You all still ROCK! Reviews are always welcome!
