A/N: Okay, so I didn't know the drinking age in America. They'd be able to drink over here! Sorry…
"Such a girly movie." Tony sulked as they bought the tickets. The cashier chuckled.
"Seeing the movie with your girlfriends?" He grinned at Ari and Tony.
"Yeah. We get no choice, obviously." Tony rolled his eyes, and Ziva punched him in the arm. Kate noticed that Ari didn't dispute that the guy had called her his boyfriend.
"Well, have fun." The guy smiled at the boys, and winked at Kate. To her surprise, Ari moved forward quickly so he was blocking Kate from the guy's sight.
"Ziva, do you want to share popcorn?" Tony dragged Ziva over to the counter.
"Okay. Not salted, though." Ziva looked disgusted. The last time Tony had taken her to see a movie, Slumdog Millionaire, he had bought them salted popcorn, and Ziva had decided that it tasted absolutely disgusting.
"Oh fine." Tony rolled his eyes. "Picky."
"Ari, do you want to share popcorn?" Kate asked Ziva's older brother. Ari looked at what the server was getting for Tony and Ziva.
"This may sound very strange," he began, "but I have actually never eaten popcorn before…"
Kate smiled.
"Well, you'll have to try it then," she informed him. "Won't you?"
"If you say so." Ari grinned at the Californian girl who he'd taken a shine to. Kate was seventeen, four years younger than Ari, but you didn't really notice the age difference as when they had spoken to each other, they seemed to have suddenly 'clicked.'
Kate smiled and waited for Tony to pay for their popcorn and then bought a box of medium-sized sweet popcorn for her and Ari.
"There." She smiled at Ari. "Drink?"
"You should not have paid, Caitlin," Ari admonished. "I will pay for the drinks."
"You don't have to!" Kate began, but Ari cut her off.
"I do." He smiled at her. "To drink?"
Kate thought about it for a moment. "Just a Diet Coke, please." Ari went up to buy Kate's drink. Meanwhile, Ziva and Tony were ordering their own drinks.
"Tony, you just paid for the popcorn." Ziva complained, "You don't have to pay for everything!"
"Let him pay, Ziva." Ari grinned and Ziva glared at her.
"Thank you, Ari. At least someone has some sense;" Here, Tony glared at Ziva. "My treat, I am paying. Okay?"
Ziva was going to pay when Ari leaned down and whispered in her ear. She was quiet and didn't say what she was going to. Tony wondered what Ari had said.
Once they all had their drinks, they sat on the couches and waited for the film to start so they could take their seats.
"Did you see Twilight?" Kate asked Ari, who shook his head.
"No, but I remember Ziva read the book once, I think." Ziva scrunched up her face.
"The book is so badly written. It's abominable! Good idea, but she cannot write." She complained, and then brightened, "at least the film was better."
"All to see New Moon please come and be seated." A woman of about 34 smiled at everyone waiting. There was a group of boys also waiting, who shook their heads.
"As if!" One of them replied. Ari, Kate, Ziva and Tony stood up and followed the woman into the darkened movie theatre. Tony handed her their tickets.
"24H, 25H, 26H, and 27H." The woman read, and then lead them to the very back where the luxury seating was. "Here we are."
She ripped off part of their tickets, and then handed them back to Tony.
"Enjoy the film." She smiled at the group, and then walked back down the steps.
Ten minutes later, the adverts for the film began. To the group's intense surprise, they were the only people watching the film.
"They obviously watched Twilight." Tony joked, implying that the first film was so intensely bad no one else came back for the sequel. Ziva slapped him on the leg with the back of her hand.
"Be quiet." She told him, narrowing her eyes. Tony pulled her toward him so her head was on his shoulder.
The movie began.
Ziva and Kate chuckled when Bella cut her finger on the wrapping paper, since they knew what was going to happen. When Jasper launched himself at Bella, Tony rolled his eyes.
"You knew that was going to happen." He complained, and was immediately shushed by Kate and Ziva. When Edward pushed Bella into the glass, Kate smirked.
"That's gotta hurt." She commented, and Ziva laughed.
They got to the part when Edward left Bella, and Kate and Ziva pretended to sniff theatrically.
"How sad." Tony said sarcastically.
"Zivy, who's your favorite Twilight boy?" Kate asked, and unconsciously leaned into Ari. Ziva noticed the nickname Kate had used.
"Probably… Kellan Lutz." She replied.
"Who?" Tony looked confused.
"Emmett." Ziva explained, as if he was stupid.
"Ziva! It's so Robert Pattinson!" Kate argued, and Ziva laughed.
"He looks permanently stoned!" Ziva retorted.
"She does have a point, Caitlin." Ari agreed with his sister.
"Now that is dumb." Tony commented at Bella lying on the forest floor.
"That is pretty stupid." Ziva agreed, and Tony tried not to think that Ziva herself had slept rough when she'd run away. But, obviously, Ziva was tougher he conceded.
Ziva took a sip of her drink and then screwed up her face.
"Ew!" She exclaimed, and put her drink where Tony's drink had been and took his. "Wrong drink."
Tony laughed at her mistake. He knew that Ziva only like Diet Coke and hated Pepsi, but he'd accidentally put them the wrong way round.
"Tony!" Ziva narrowed her eyes at him, but Tony kissed her forehead and pulled her backwards so she was leaning on him.
By the end of the film, both the girls were settled into the boys. Kate hadn't realized that she'd been leaning on Ari until he shifted when the credits came on.
"Sorry!" In the dark, Ari only just made out Kate's blush. Luckily, by the time the lights came up, the blood had receded from her cheeks and she was her normal complexion.
Tony drank the last of his Pepsi and Ziva upended her Coke. Kate took half of the last popcorn and offered the rest to Ari.
"No thank you, Caitlin." Ari smiled gratefully at her, and picked up his drink and finished it.
"Where are we going now?" Tony asked as they walked out of the movie theater.
"Do you want to go get something to drink and sit by the lake?" Ziva suggested, glancing at her brother, who nodded.
"I will be back in a minute." Ari turned and walked away. Kate looked after him curiously.
"Where is he going?" She asked, and Ziva grinned.
"You will find out when he gets back. He will meet us by the lake." Ziva said, as they began to head toward the lake that Tony had showed her as they passed it to get to school.
They stopped just outside of the lake to wait for Ari. Five minutes later, he walked up to them. He threw something to Ziva and she caught it deftly.
"For you." She handed one to Kate, caught another and handed one to Tony. "For you."
She caught one for herself, and then Ari approached, smiling.
"Alcohol?" Kate asked, reading the label.
"You'd be able to drink legally in Israel next year." Ari said. "Instead I had to wait an extra three years here."
"Thanks, Ari." Tony grinned. "Shall we go?"
Tony linked arms with Ziva, and to Kate's surprise Ari put his arm around her shoulders. They walked into the park and headed toward the pavilion by the lake.
"Woah…" Kate breathed. The lake was lit up with colored lights.
"That is spectacular." Ari agreed.
"And guess who designed them." Ziva grinned.
"Who?" Tony asked. "And how do you know?"
"Well, Laurence McGee is a councilor." Ziva began. "McGee designed the lighting. He told me."
"It's beautiful." Kate said.
"I think it's amazing." Ziva agreed. Tony kissed Ziva on the lips, and they walked off to sit at the edge of the pavilion. Ari looked at Kate.
"My view is beautiful too." He whispered, smiling at her. Kate looked back into his eyes.
"Thank you." She smiled back.
Ziva leaned into Tony, also smiling.
"They are cute, yes?" She asked Tony.
"Very." Tony agreed as Ari kissed Kate on the cheek.
A/N: Yum. Tiva and Kari! I'm happy at least. I hope you are too. That was Twilight loving and bashing in the same chapter :P Ziva's voice on Twilight is my own thoughts on it. I'm still going to see the movie when it comes out though!
