With Ziva scooped up in his arms, with her head on his chest special Agent DiNozzo knew that this was how life was mean to be. Well okay maybe not that Ziva David was in hospital, had a broken arm and leg after a car crash that also made her loose the life that was growing inside of herat that time.

Did i mention that the said baby was his? And too top it all off his dead ex girlfriend, Jeanne Beniot, had treatened her life. Gibbs being the all fearless leader that he is saved the day.

But Athony. was just glad that his partner and the women he loved was okay and he vowed not only to himself but his bossand her not to let anything happenlike that Ever again.

Gibbs could see that his senior feild agent was glad thqat their newest probie agent was okay. Maybe they would finally see what we see. Gibbs thought that maybe he needed to rethink rule 12 as when he looked at DiNozzo all he coul see was the love and admoration for his partner.

He also knew for a fact, that Abby and McGee loved each other but both respected him and feared him too much to take any actions on it. Yes he knew he would definaty have to come up with some new rules about office relationships and he would have to throw out rule 1. In this case he knew rule 51 would come in handy. Sometimes you're wrong.

knowing that he should give his agents some space he backed out the room to go and let the local LEO's what had happened and because it was one of his agents that NCIS 0would be taking the body etc. he also knew that he wanted the job done quickly so he called Ducky who was now on his way to collect the body.

Back in the hospital room Ducky had just taken the body. Ziva and Tony were still in the same positions they were left in. no one was specking in fear that the other would move. Seeing they were both in a comfortable position and both felt comeforted by the pressence of the other. But they both knew that sooner or later someone had too speak.

Tony knew that they had to have this conversation soon and even though he didnt want to ruin this moment or make Ziva even more upset. He had to know why. 'Ziva?'

'Yes Tony?'For once her voice was soft and almost vulnerable. What he was about too do, made him feel like a monster.

'Why didn't you tell me about the baby?'

'Tony i'm sorry...iIt's just that you didn't see yourself with children because of your lifestyle and i didn't want to be the one to ruin your life and all your fun, or to pin you down too something you might not want.' A lone tear rolled down her face.

'Shhh...It's okay i'm not mad i just wanted to know. And i wouldnt mind giving up my lifestyle of you Zi.'

Ziva looked up at him in disbelief that she had kept such a big thing from him and he would give up everything for her. Tony lowered his head until their lips collided and they kissed slowly andfilled with love. Once they both needed to break away for air Tony knew it was time to tell the love of his life how he felt for her.

'Ziva? I know that this is kindof sudden and I know that you might not feel the same way but I'm ready to tell you anyway. Ziva David ever since the first time you came into my life, asking if I was having phone sex, I knew I had to have you. But working aside you for nearly 5 years now, I relieased that... I love you... I love you when you threaten me, when you tease me and you have my six. I guess I just...love you' Taking a deep breath Anthony DiNozzo was glad he got how he felt off his chest.

Looking up at Tony, she knew that he was telling her the truth. Smiling up at him 'Tony, I loved you when I came back too D.C and I said that you were imagining doing page 52 with me and I knew I was correct, what I am trying to say is... I love you too'

There it was said, they both knew how the other felt and they loved it.

Smiling up at each other and leaned up/down to kiss each other.

'Tony, when can I leave this hospital? So I can get some proper food?'

'I'm not sure zi, I'll check just stay her.' After giving her a quick kiss, tony left the room in search of Ziva's doctor.

The next time Ziva looked up at the door; Tony was standing in the doorway then started to make his way into the room. While the doctor came in only seconds later. 'Miss David, you can go home now; however you do need too stay with someone so that they can help you with tasks that you cannot perform on your own because of the casts on you arm and leg.'

'Dont worry doctor, she can stay with me and I'll keep my eyes on her' he smirked at her and once she smiled back, he winks.

Once satisfied the doctor left the couple on their own and Tony helped Ziva get changed into the spare set of clothes from her locker at NCIS. After what felt like hours, but in reality only 20 minutes, of filling out the necessary paperwork was signed, they headed out the doors and to Tony's car.

Helping Ziva into his apartment felt so natural to Tony, that it scared him a little bit. But a good scared. (Sorry if that doesnt make any sense its late at night x)

Ziva looked around her partner's home and smiled. She knew that this would be homeuntil she was 100% better. But she secretly wished that she'd never get better. That way she gets too stay with the man she loves. Sitting down on the settee, Ziva pulled Tony down with her, using her good arm of course. And snuggled up to his side and soon drifted off to sleep with Tony brushing his fingers through her hair.

They were both in heaven.

Soon not only had Ziva fallen asleep but Tony too. However, before he did drift off into his own slumber, he called the team too let them know where they were, and that Ziva was asleep with a blanket draped over them both.
