Okay, so two chapters in like a day. I think that's pretty good. It's Mid-Winter Break Here, so I have a lot of time, so probably can get another one up soon. This Chapter is dedicated to TIVA, and MASH (You'll see why later.)

Disclaimer: You know what I own.


What TIVA Stands For:

It was a gray, finely crafted, 2 story house. "Tony…" Ziva whispered in awe. "You bought her a house?" Abby asked in amazement. "Yeah, I mean, your apartment is kinda small, and I already sold mine so…What the hell, I bought a house!" Tony grinned, "So, what do you think?" Ziva nodded, "I love it. But, how could you afford something like this?" "Let's just say I know the realtor and was able to get a reasonable price." "Well? Can we see the inside?" Abby asked excitedly. Tony nodded and started toward the house, "Hold up," he said before he turned to look at Ziva, "Come Here." He urged and she furrowed her eyebrows at him, "Why?" "Because it's tradition, when a man and woman buy a house together, the woman has to be carried in." He said before he scooped her into his arms.

"Tony, I really do not think this is a good idea." Ziva said as he turned the keys in the door, "It's fine. I just have to carry you over the doorway." Ziva sighed before Tony pushed open the door, "Here we are sweet cheeks." He set her down by the winding staircase and watched her slowly turn in awe. "It's huge." She murmured. "Yeah, it's like 7,000 square feet." "Tony, we are three not four or seven people. This house is too big for us." Tony gave her a look and she shook her head, "No way, uh-uh. One child, that's it." "Aww, come on sweet cheeks. It's no fun being an only child." "No." Ziva emphasized before she left to tour the rest of the house.

"You really think she's gonna have another baby?" Abby asked one she had returned from getting Maddie. "Yeah, I mean. That's one of the reasons I bought this house. So she could stare at the empty rooms and try and fill them for me." He joked and Abby laughed, "You're an evil man Anthony DiNozzo." Tony draped his arm around Abby's shoulder, "I know and I love."

"Good. Now show me around." She instructed and he went left and lead her through the beautiful, hand crafted chef's kitchen, "Ziva's gonna love this." Abby said once she saw it. "That's another reason." He showed her the massive family room and then the living room before he steered her over to the veranda where Ziva was leaning against the railing staring at the two acre backyard. "This was one of my favorite parts of house." He whispered against Ziva's neck as he wrapped his arms around her. "Hmp." She mumbled. "What?" Tony asked. "I would have thought that the huge master bedroom would have been your favorite."

Tony chuckled, "Not exactly sweet cheeks. Have you seen the upstairs?" Ziva shook her head, "No, why?" Tony grabbed her hand gestured for Abby to follow them. They trotted up the stairs and Tony showed them the game room and the soon-to-be nursery.

"See, the crib can go over there and then the dresser can go next to the bookshelf." Tony explained and Ziva nodded, "You are going to paint it, yes?" Ziva asked and Tony nodded, "I was thinking of a sky blue." "So it is a boy?" Abby asked eagerly and Ziva shook her head though her eyes never left Tony's, "He is lying. He would never be that up front about it." Tony shrugged, "Maybe I am, Maybe I'm not. That reminds me, Zi, Apple or Carrot?" Ziva looked at him curiously before answering,

"Apple."

"Girl."

"What's are you two talking about?" Abby questioned as she picked Maddie up in her arms, "Some Old Wives Tale stuff." "Oh yeah! I heard about stuff like that! Wait, Wait, Ziva was…and then month….According to calendar your baby might be a boy." Abby said coming to a conclusion. "Yes!" Tony shrieked. "You already know, you dumb ass." Ziva hissed and Tony wiggled a finger in her face, "Ah-Ah-Ah. Not cursing in front of either baby."

Ziva stuck her tongue at him before Maddie started crying, "See Maddie doesn't like cussing people either." Tony said as Ziva walked over. "Oh, come here." Ziva soothed as she took Maddie from Abby. "Ssshhh. Hush, Madeline." She whispered and she tried to calm her. "So, do you like it?" Tony asked once Maddie had been situated with a bottle. "Besides the fact that it has too many bedrooms it is wonderful." Ziva said and Tony kissed the side of her head, "Course it is." Abby came back, bounding in, "Hey guys guess what we should do today!" "What?" they both asked. "We should go look at venues. For the wedding." Both expectant parents groaned, "Do we have too?" "Yeah, come on, you're getting married really soon and you don't even know where." They both sighed but reluctantly packed up the rest of Maddie stuff before following Abby down the stairs, "You know," Tony whispered, "We could always elope." "Over my dead body!" Abby screeched.


Abby drove while Tony and Ziva were in the back, growing more and more restless, "Okay Abby where are we going?" Ziva finally asked. "Okay, so me and Jenny were talking." She started to explain as she made another whirlwind turn. "So, we figured that you guys kinda wanted a small, normal, simple wedding. So we got the perfect idea." "Which is?" Ziva asked again. "You'll see." "You know, if one more person says that today, I'm gonna flip."

Tony ran his hands over his face, "Here we go….again." Abby stopped in a parking lot and lead them all out to a grassy area. It was a medium sized, white, gazebo in the middle of it all and in the back was the ocean.

"So, what do you think?" Ziva looked at Tony, who looked at her, before they agreed, "We hate it." Abby jaw nearly dropped to the ground, "Are you serious?" They looked at each other again before they started laughing, "We were kidding." Ziva said through laughs, "But the look on your face was priceless."

Abby folded her arms across her chest, "That's not funny it took me a long time to get this." Tony and Ziva recollected themselves, "Alright, we're listening." "Okay, so like 25 or 50 guests. And then you two get married in the gazebo, and then we have the reception on pier over there." She said pointing to everything she talked about. "I think….it'll be perfect." "Tony what about you?" Abby asked and Tony lightly rubbed Ziva's stomach, "I can not wait to marry you."


Ziva yawned once they were in her apartment and took a seat on the couch, "I am going to lie down." She said to Tony once she had Maddie in her arms again, "Hold on. Hold on." Abby said quickly. "What do you me to do with this?" Ziva asked as Abby handed her a small cup.

"Pee in it." Ziva looked up at her curiously, "Um, no." "Please! Please!" "Why?" Ziva quizzed and Tony answered for Abby, "We read that if you put Drain-O with urine it can tell you if it's a boy or girl." "Tony, for the last time. You already know, just tell Abby. I am not some Guinea pig." "Please." Abby begged. Ziva sighed, "Fine. But this is your last test." She growled before she took the cup and left toward the bathroom.

"You're lucky," Tony whispered as he lightly rubbed Maddie's back. "Why?" "Normally, if Ziva was that tired she would have bit my head off."

"No I wouldn't." Ziva said as she set the cup on the counter. "Okay, so where's your Drain-o?" Ziva shrugged before she seized Maddie back. "I don't know and I don't care." She climbed back onto the couch and looked back at them, "Can I go to sleep now?" Tony kissed her forehead, "Love You." Ziva rolled her eyes before Tony helped her lay down and draped a blanket over her and Maddie. Within minutes both woman and child were asleep and Tony couldn't help but chuckle.

"Alright," Abby said holding up the cup. "Let's get testing."


Ziva's POV

The sound of pans clanking caused me to wake from 'dreamland' as Tony would say. I sat up, still clutching Maddie to my chest and saw; Jenny, McGee, and Gibbs sitting at the bar. "Hi," I murmured groggily.

As they turned to look at me, "Did you sleep well?" My mother asked and I shrugged before placing Maddie down in her crib and pushed it into the bedroom, "Mm, what time is it?" I asked once I returned. "About 7: 30." 'I was out for a long time.' I thought. Gibbs held up a cup that seemed familiar but I couldn't place it, "Hey Ziver, what's this?" I shrugged before I grinned, "Oh yeah, one of Abby's experiments."

"So why is it…green?" Jenny asked as she examined the top. "'Cause it's a girl!" Abby shrieked as she ran into the living room before I shushed her. "Or it might be." I broke in. "Doesn't Tony know?" "Yeah, I know. But I'm not saying." Tony teased as he too bounded in, I looked over into his eyes and he glanced back into mine before Abby waved her hands in front of my face, "Hello? Earth to Tiva?" "What?" I asked taking my attention away from Tony.

"Tiva. You know, Tony and Ziva put together." Abby explained. "How come his name gets to go first?" I asked and I folded my arms across my chest. "What you think Zony would be better?" I shrugged, "Makes more sense to me." I decided. Tony smiled as he pulled me into a tight hug, "How'd you sleep?" He asked softly against my head. "Fine, but I missed not having your big strong arms around me and the baby." Tony smiled tenderly before replying, "Well, I'm sorry for not keeping you and my son warm at night." I smirked, "So it is a boy?" Tony shook his head, "That's not funny!" I cried as I playfully hit him. "I'm sorry sweet cheeks, but, my lips are sealed."

I played with the edges of his collar, "Please." I begged, "Pretty Please." I pleaded before I pecked his lips repeatedly. "Alright, Alright. You two get a room!" Gibbs said and I meekly pulled away, "We are not done with this conversation." I whispered before I turned to look at Gibbs.

"So, what were you two doing while I was asleep?" "We were packing." Abby said and Jenny raised her eyebrows, "Why are we packing?" she asked as she took a sip. "Yes Ziva-leh why are you two packing?" I glanced over at Tony who wrapped his arms tighter around me, "Well…today, well actually, a couple weeks ago, I went out and….I bought a house."

The room stayed quiet as Abby, Tony, and I waited for their reaction. "Just do not tell your Aunt." Was all my mother said and I grinned, "Is it big?" Jenny asked and I nodded, "It has, I think, six bedrooms. But it was not my idea." Jenny smiled, "Congrats Guys." Gibbs admitted and I grinned, "But we could use your help when we move." Gibbs dusted his hands on his pants, "You know I'm there." "Thanks Boss." "Yes, thank you Gibbs."

"Why are we thanking Gibbs?" My Aunt asked as she and Ducky walked through the door. "Um, no reason." I added quickly. She nodded before hugging both of us, "Oh, that reminds me Matthew said he and his new friend would be stopping by."

Tony glanced at me and I couldn't help but laugh, "If he comes over here with a hickey on his neck it's my head." He whispered to me as I sat on the couch, "I highly doubt a hickey, maybe a smile would be better." I teased before my mother called Tony over to help her cook. "So, Ziva, how many bedrooms does this house have?" My aunt asked smirking. "How did you-?" "You doors are not that thick."

I laughed before I started painting a picture for them all, by the time I was describing the second floor there was a knock at the door. "I'll get it." I said as I stood up, I opened the door and let Matt and Ashley in. Both Tony and I bit our lips to stop from laughing, "What's so funny?" Abby asked and I shook my head, "You had to be here last night." Tony said through laughs. Ashley and Matt took a seat on the couch and started talking quietly about something and I could see the wheels spinning in Tony's head.

"No." I mouthed to him, but it was no use, once those wheels were set, they couldn't be stopped. "So, uh, Ashley. Are those the same clothes from last night?" I bit my fingers as I watched my brother turn red, "Matthew?" My mother asked cautiously and he glanced at me and I shrugged. He took Ashley's chin and pulled her lips closer and closer to his, I couldn't help it anymore and neither could Tony. We both started laughing and we couldn't stop, I could tell that the rest of the team was looking at us strangely but that made it even funnier.

"Ewww, who has sex on the first date Matthew?" Tony shouted through laughs and everybody looked over at him, "Alright, Alright, Matthew you made your point." My Aunt said as she shook his shoulder, Matt grinned before he pulled away, "It's fun to have a girlfriend." He joked and we all laughed, "It's fun to do a lot of things Mattie. No scratch that, Mash." We all looked at him again, "You know, Ash and Matt but together?" "How long did it take you to come up with that?" McGee asked.

"About 20 minutes."


Dinner was very casual and very funny. Occasionally, I would check on Maddie who was still sleeping until about halfway through, so I brought her out and she sat by my legs and playing with some toys Tony had found for her, and almost always, somebody had to pull Matt and Ashley apart.

"Okay, Okay, I have to say something." Abby said as she lightly tapped on her glass and Maddie screeched and look up at her, Abby grinned before she continued, "Alright, so, we know that Tony DiNozzo is getting married, now how many of you though that would happen?"

Nobody raised their hands but had smiles on their faces, but Maddie started babbling non-sense. Abby picked her up, "So last night, while I was watching Ms. Madeline, we were thinking of what TIVA should stand for…I couldn't think of anything, but Maddie could."

Maddie groaned and Abby set her down, she grabbed the edges of the coffee table and pulled herself up, "Yay, Madster!" I whispered as I lightly tickled her sides and she erupted with giggles. "Madster, what's it stand for?" Tony asked and Maddie cooed. "Well, Tiva stands for…Together In Victory Always, because like you guys will always be together, and every time you guys are together victory follows." I grinned, "Is that knitted on a quiet somewhere?" Abby shook her head,

"But there's just one more thing I have to say, Matt and Ashley! Stop Making Out!"


Okay, so I tried to incorporate the whole Matt and Ashley thing, and trust me, there will be more.

I'm still need more votes for the poll and reviews, I would at least like the review meter to go up to 155, please?
