TWO AND A HALF WEEKS GONE BY...
Ever since the day she woke up from the coma...
She did have some time alone during the day, but everyone who had been there the first night she woke up would show up when they could to see her.
Tim & Abby -
Tim and Abby would come together on most days around lunch time.
Then when Tim had to go back to work, most of the time Abby would stay and tell Ziva things to try to help her remember.
In the evening Tim would stop by if Abby had stayed and Ziva would talk to Tim a little bit. After that the two of them would head home.
Tony -
She would sometimes wonder what it had been like before the accident...when they had dated and wanted so much to remember.
A few times she found herself on the verge of telling him she was in love with him, but something kept her from saying it and she wasn't sure what.
Tony came every day after work and she had found out that he had a juvenile sense of humor. He told her about a few pranks he pulled, since she had already figured out about the names. It seemed that Tim was the main person for Tony to pick on.
Other times he would constantly tell her about things that would remind him of a movie he saw.
Ziva could tell that Tim and Abby had a special bond. She knew it was more than the fact that they were getting ready to have a baby, it seemed stronger than that.
Ziva had asked Tony about them; he had explained that it was the bond of,
'The Geek and the Goth'
Tony had then told her about the reactions the two had, when they had first talked on the phone and how after the case was done that the two had met for lunch.
When Tony told her that Tim had gotten a tattoo to surprise Abby when they first met, Ziva had to admit...she wasn't that surprised.
Gibbs -
She couldn't really put into words what to say about him and had talked to him a little to.
A couple of times he had call her, Ziver. There was something she couldn't put her foot on...it was like the two of them shared a secret.
Ducky -
Who seemed like a wonderful man, full of stories and in many ways like a grandfather? She knew he was the ME at NCIS, but also did some profiling.
Jimmy Palmer -
Who was often with Ducky and called him Dr. Mallard. Palmer seemed to be all right and worked as the ME Assistant.
TWO DAYS AGO...
Ziva had been released from the hospital Tony had picked her up and after stopping to grab a pizza, he had taken her home.
Tomorrow she had planned to go to NCIS...not to work, but to try to put more pieces of her life back together.
She had already talked to Gibbs and the director. She told them, she wasn't going to be there to work, but she had to see if a day at NCIS would help.
Since she got out of the hospital Tony had did the same thing he had been doing since she woke. He would come over and they would just spend time together. She looked forward to it every day and was always a little sad when he left.
The first night after she had gotten out of the hospital, had been the first night she had been alone since she woke up from the coma.
There were no doctors, nurses or anything. Her apartment seemed so empty and she had almost asked Tony to stay, but that would have made her look weak.
She knew, because she remembered Mossad, her father and that part of her past...
ZIVA DAVID WAS NOT WEAK!
Ziva still had yet to tell him that she was in love with him, but she guessed that he already knew.
Gibbs said that he would have Tony stop by and pick her up in the morning to take her to NCIS.
It seemed that Ziva had just fallen asleep, when there was a knock at the door. She opened her eyes and looked at the time...six o'clock.
If that was Tony he was early, she got up and after looking through the peep-hole to see who it was.
She opened the door and stepped back to let Tony into her apartment.
"Hey, Zi, I was told to pick you up on my way in." Tony stated with his smile.
"Just let me go get ready." Ziva said and headed to her room to get ready.
"Hey, Zee-Vah, You can always go in like that!" Ziva heard Tony call as she closed the door to her bedroom.
It didn't take her long to get ready and then they were on their way. Ziva had been lost in her thoughts all the way to the Navy Yard.
Tony looked over and she looked like she wanted to say something, instead she got out and headed inside.
"You okay, Ziva?" Tony said as they stepped into the elevator.
"Fine," Ziva lied, but in truth...
The elevator stopped and she noticed that he had hit the emergency switch. She looked at him and tried to hit the switch to get the elevator started again, but he stopped her.
"Ziva, I know you're not fine and I know..." Tony began.
"Know what, Tony?" Ziva asked.
"I know that you're frustrated..." Tony pointed out.
"You do not know how I feel, because you are not me." Ziva said as she looked toward the doors.
"Then tell me, Zi." Tony demanded making her look at him and when he made her look at him, their faces were only inches apart.
She tried to step back, but couldn't move.
Ever since the night that he told her that he loved her and at the time she had not been able to tell him the same.
Maybe it was time, she still did not remember them dating. She felt a...
What is that word? ...Connection? With him?"Tony..." Ziva began, but he leaned down and kissed her and after a minute he pulled away.
"I want..." Tony began, but knew he couldn't tell her that and put pressure on her to remember.
"I want to remember, Tony." Ziva said as she looked into his eyes.
"I know, Zi." Tony told her.
Everything around them seemed forgotten and then Tony's cell phone just had to ring.
