I am not happy with this chapter much. I think it sounds a little rushed.
Either way; enjoy :)

Ziva was rudely awoken the next morning by Tali storming in to her room, slamming the door, and ripping the covers off her. Ziva subconsciously reached for her cover.
"Where is my make up Ziva?" Tali demanded.
"Bathroom," Ziva said as she woke up. She looked to the side at her clock; it read quarter to eight, "Talk about wake up call," Ziva murmured as she climbed out of bed. She had to meet Abby at half past eight.
She grabbed her money, her phone, and the picture that her father had presented her with the few days before hand and walked to her car.
Abby was already there when she arrived at the park. Ziva enjoyed the slight chill of the air in the morning and Abby did; just not as much.
"Where is the photo?" Abby demanded as Ziva was about to sit down.
"And hello to you to Abs," she replied. Abby handed her her coffee and Ziva held out the photo.
Abby studied it for a moment, "Nope, don't like him," She stated.
"Well then that makes two of us," Ziva replied.
"Did you ring Tony? I like him a whole lot more," Abby informed her.
"No. I am not sure whether I should Abs. It is not right to see someone else while you are dating someone," Ziva said.
"So you are dating this guy?" Abby said.
"Well she you go on a date with the man you are supposedly going to marry, then I suppose I am," She said.
"Tell your father 'no'," Abby said as if it was that simple.
"Yeah, then I will get hit again," She said pointing to the yellowing bruise on her cheek.
Abby sighed and stood, "I need to shop for a new pair of shoes, mine broke last night. You comin'?" she asked.
"Yes,"
They wondered the mall for a few hours; buying what they thought needed to be bought and probably some stuff that didn't.
When lunch came around, they took a seat in the food court and began talking.
"Show me the picture again," Abby said.
"Okay," Ziva replied as she handed it.
"He looks really evil and dark. Usually I would like that, but he wears it in a creepy manor," Abby said, "Call Tony," She suddenly said.
"Why?"
"Because he likes you or he wouldn't have given you his number and explain to him your situation," Abby said, and before Ziva could answer she had grabbed her phone and found the number, "Here it's ringing," She said.
"Abby!" Ziva said, "You cannot do th- hello," she said as the phone picked up.
"Ziva? I thought you were never goon to ring, it has been two days," Tony replied over the phone, "Where are you?" He asked.
"The food court in the Mall. Do you and Tim want to meet us for lunch?" Ziva asked.
"Sure," he said and then spoke to someone on his end of the phone.
"We will be there in fifteen minutes," He said.
"See you then, "Ziva said and hung up her phone," Never do that again, or else I will kill you with a paper plate," she threatened.
They sat at their table talking of stupid unimportant things when Tony and Tim joined them.
"Hello," Tony said announcing his presence with a smile. As soon as he sat down Abby stood up.
"Hey, Tim, I need a guy's opinion on something. Can you help me?" She asked. Tim looked up at her then looked to Tony and Ziva who was throwing a glare towards Abby.
"Sure..." He said and Abby grabbed his arm and dragged him out of the food court leaving Tony and Ziva sitting alone at the table.
"Who's this?" Tony asked looking at the photo on the table that Ziva had forgotten to put back in her bag.
"If I were to have called you before now, what would you have said?" She asked.
"I would have probably asked you out," He said truthfully.
"Would you still want too?" She asked.
"I don't see why not," He replied.
"Even if I said that that man was the guy that my father is forcing me to date and marry?" She said.
"You have to marry him? Why?" He asked.
"I don't know. I do not know why my father has chosen this guy. He is the opposite of me, the opposite of what I would have expected him to chose,"
"Do you want to see him?"
"No," Ziva said quickly.
"So that means that you are technically not dating him. You are doing it to stop your father from hurting you?" He said.
"Have you been talking to Abby? And how do you know that my father is hurting me?" She asked.
"It's not that hard to work out. I am studying to be a cop. And I haven't talked to Abby in the past few days," He said. She looked down and he began talking again, "Look, I will leave the decision to you, if you want to go out with me. If you do - and 'do' meaning a lot more than going out with him - we can work out some way to ditch that guy," He said pointing to the photo.
"I don't want to date him," Ziva murmured.
"So you want to go out with me?" He asked.
"Yes," She whispered.
"Okay, we will work out what we can do to get rid of him on our first date," He said with a smile. Ziva looked up and smiled back. At this moment, Abby and McGee walked back to them.
"So I would say go with the Sony brand, it's better," Tim finished as they sat down. Clearly they had gone to the electronic store on the floor above them.
"Stop with talking computers," Tony demanded.
"What so now I'm not allowed to talk to anyone about it?" He asked.
"That's not what I said. Just not around me," Tony clarified.
"Do not listen to him Tim. You can talk about what ever you like," Ziva defended smiling at Tim before looking at Tony giving him a playful glare.
"I will make sure that I am available on the weekend if you are free. Call me when you have a time," Ziva said grabbing a piece of paper and writing her number down.
"Sure," He replied.
