Thank you so much for the reviews. It was so great to read them.

Tony walked towards his friends as he saw them setting at their usual lunch table after he got his food from the cafeteria. They were serving pasta today, not one of his favourites but it'll do. Their school's food was alright, not the best but affordable for the students so most of the students at the school ate the caf foods at lunch. As he got to the table he sat at the guy's side of the table beside Gibbs.
"Hey Tony" Abby said as she saw me sit down. Abby was wearing her black skull T-shirt, miniskirt, and her tall squeaky boots. She's best friends with Kate and is a freshman too.
"Hey Abby" He said as he smiled back at her.
"Did you enjoy your new senior science class?" Tim from the other end of the table asked her.
"Loved it, it was so much fun and I didn't find it too hard neither. And Ducky was really helpful too. So how was your computer science class?"Abby asked back. Abby was really advanced in science, especially forensics, so her teacher told her to take an advancement test and she was moved to a senior science class with Ducky this semester. Tim on the other hand was good with computers so he moved into the senior computer science class too.
"It was really fun too and I learned so much. How was your classes Tony?" He turned to Tony who turned and answered jokingly.
"Unlike you McNerdy I'm normal and I don't enjoy my classes." McNerdy was one of the many nicknames Tony got for Tim, most of them starting with Mc since his last name is McGee.
"Well of course Tony doesn't like any of his classes Tim. How can he like it if he doesn't go to any of it?" Kate chuckled and everyone at the table followed. Then he heard two new chuckles join them behind me and he turned and saw Jenny walking toward us with her friend Ziva.
"Hey guys, this is Ziva David. She just moved here from Israel and is new to the school." Jenny introduced.
"Shalom." Ziva greeted and even thought Tony didn't know Hebrew he could figure out that it meant hello.
"Hi, Ziva. I'm Abby, this is two of my best friends Kate and Tim" She introduced and Kate and Tim said hi when she introduced them. Then Abby pointed to Gibbs. "This is Gibbs, his first name is Jethro but he never let anyone call him that except for Jenny and Ducky." Gibbs nodded at Ziva and she nodded back. When Ziva looked a little confused about who Ducky was, Ducky stood up and shook her hand.
"Hello Ziva. My name is Donald Mallard but please call me Ducky."
"Hello Ducky" She said as she shook his hand. "And this is?" She asked looking at me.
"Tony" Tony answered with his famous smile and surprisingly she smiled back. Tony looked at the girl standing in front of him. She wore cargo pants and jacket and a boot, just like his brother. But Ziva was a little different than Tony expected her to be. With her being Ari's half-sister and all the training Jenny told them about he expected her to have cold, unreadable eyes like her brother but hers was so warm and gentle when she looked at him.
"It's so nice to meet you Ziva, we've heard so much about you from Jenny." Abby continued with her hyperness. "You know I think we could-" Abby was cut off as Ziva fell toward the table when Chip pushed her from behind. Before she fell down to the table she quickly regained her balance and turned around to face Chip.
"Nice to see you again David." Chip said mispronouncing Ziva's last name into Day-vid.
"It is Dah-veed." Ziva corrected him.
"Whatever Dah-veed, stay out of my way and I'll forget about this morning's little incident, or you will pay for what you did." Chip threatened and Gibbs stood up before Tony could.
"Leave her alone Chip."
"Gibbs, it has been only two weeks but it seems forever the last time we saw each other." Chip replied now looking at Gibbs. Nobody really dared to mess with Gibbs in the school not even Chip, he was on the football team and his stare just scared people. "Is she your friend? Don't be so sensitive you know I was just joking." Chip smirked.
"DiNozzo, Dah-veed." Chip said blankly, glaring at Tony and Ziva in turn.
"Ignore him Ziva." Jenny told her friend when she saw her frowning.
"Yeah, he's like the most arrogant jerk in the school. Trust me I know. He's just mad that he's weaker than you. Which by the way you kicked ass this morning. Don't listen to what our Toothpick Principal says you were awesome." He added, hoping to make Ziva feel better but she just shrugged.
"It does not matter."
"Why don't you sit down here and join us for lunch." Kate suggested pointing the chair beside her.
Ziva sat down between Kate and Jenny and joined the table for lunch. They ate and had conversations ranging from asking Ziva questions to get to know her better to telling Tony off for relating every single thing to a movie reference for rest of the lunch period.
Tony looked at Ziva and saw that she seemed to be enjoying the conversations even chuckling a little with everyone else. Suddenly curious he asked "Hey Ziva you're a freshman too right?"
"Yes" Ziva answered
"What class do you have in the afternoon?" Ziva looked at her schedule and answered him in order.
"History, PE, and Algebra." Tony's eye lightened at this answer.
"Really? We have the exact same classes. Maybe we could go to classes together and I'll give you a tour around the school." Tony offered and Ziva smiled.
"Thanks for the offer Tony. But Jenny already gave me a tour around the school and I thought you jumped classes."
"Skipped. The term is skipped classes and no I do not skip classes." He ignored the laughter he got from his friends and continued. "And I'm pretty positive that Jenny doesn't know the secret places around the school that I do."
"Should I believe that?" Ziva asked raising her eyebrow in a jokingly manner.
"Trust me it'll be so much fun." He answered.
"Sure I guess it would not hurt to go to classes together and what could one more tour do." Tony smiled at her answer, grad that she said yes.
Soon after the ten minute bell rang and everyone threw away their garbage, grabbed their bag and headed for the door.
"Miss David" Tony opened the door for her and smiled as he let her pass. Kate was sort of right when she said he didn't really go to his classes. He does most of the time because he doesn't want to be caught but whenever he could, he would skip, at least the classes he didn't like anyway. And today, the first day back was exactly one of those days since couple of the kids are still on vacation. But for some reason he knew that it was going to be much more fun to go to classes with Ziva than to skip today.
