CHAPTER 19: MISCARRIAGE...
ZIVA'S APARTMENT...
"Ziva," Abby called as she knocked and a after a few minutes of waiting the door opened just a crack.
Ziva's eyes were red rimmed and she looked like she had been crying.
"Abby, what are you doing here?" Ziva asked. "I came to talk to you." Abby told her. "Why? I wanted to be left alone this weekend." Ziva told her.
"I know, but I thought you could use someone to talk to." Abby told her. "Who told you to come and talk to me? Tony?" Ziva asked.
"No, Tony talked to Tim and I was asked to check on you." Abby told her and Ziva opened the door a little wider to let Abby in.
For a few minutes, they sat on Ziva's couch in silence.
"Why are you here?" Ziva repeated. "We're worried about you." Abby asked. "Even Tony," Ziva asked. "Yes, he is the most worried." Abby told her.
"No, Tony is just worried I'm going to say no, that I won't want to move in together and raise this baby in the same apartment." Ziva said. "No, Ziva. Tony is worried about you because he loves..." Abby began.
"I know he loves me, but I have made up my mind and I cannot marry, Tony." Ziva said as the tears filled her eyes again.
"Why..." Abby began. "I love him, but I just cannot stand the thought of getting married and then him dying." Ziva told her.
"I worry about Tim too, but you shouldn't let that stop you from..." Abby began.
Ziva doubled over in pain...
"No... No...This cannot happen!" Ziva said and looked terrified. "Ziva," Abby asked, then noticed the blood and dialed 911.
It was not long before the ambulance arrived and took Ziva to the hospital.
"Tim!" Abby said when Tim answered the phone. "Abs...?" Tim began. "I need you to take me to the hospital and we need to pick up Tony on the way!" Abby told him.
"Wh..." Tim began. "Just hurry up!" Abby snapped hanging up her phone.
A FEW MINUTES LATER…
"Are you going to tell me what's going on?" Tim asked as she climbed into the car.
"We need to go get Tony and go to the hospital." Abby told him as he pulled out of the parking lot.
"What is this about?" McGee asked. "I'm not really sure, but I think Ziva is losing the baby." Abby replied. "What?" Tim asked as he glanced over at her. "Watch out!" Abby yelled and his eyes went back to the road in time to avoid a crash.
A few minutes later, they were at Tony's door and knocking.
"Did you talk to her?" He asked after opening the door. "You need to come with me and Tim..." Abby began. "What happened?" Tony asked.
"It's about, Ziva. We need to take you to her." Tim stated.
"What do you mean take me to her, where is she?" Tony asked. "The hospital," Abby finally told him and he grabbed his coat, wallet and keys.
He tried to lock the door, but in the end, McGee had to take the keys from him and lock it.
"What happened to, Ziva?" Tony asked as they got into the car. "Tony..." Abby began.
"What happen to her?" Tony repeated.
"There is a chance that she may have lost..." Abby started to say as Tim drove as fast as he could to get them to the hospital. "The baby," Tony asked dreading the answer. "Yes." Abby told him.
"Can't you drive any faster?" Tony shouted at Tim. "I'm getting us there as fast as I can." Tim said as Abby pulled out her phone and called Gibbs to have him meet them there.
Gibbs said he would call Ducky and Palmer.
It was not long after that they reached the hospital, but before the car could stop, Tony jumped out and ran into the hospital emergency room.
THE HOSPITAL...
"Ziva David!" Tony said reaching the reception desk. "What?" The receptionist asked looking up startled.
"Where is Ziva David? She was brought in not long ago." Tony asked and as soon as the receptionist told him, Tony took off.
Tony reached the room where Ziva was and found her sobbing into her pillow.
"Ziva," Tony asked walking over and taking her hand, but she jerked her hand away. "Go...away, Tony. I do not wish to see you." Ziva said and turned her back to him, as she continued to cry.
"What happened?" Tony asked. "I-I lost the baby. I am sorry, Tony, but I cannot marry you." Ziva said, but it sound muffled against the pillow.
"Ziva, I did not ask you to marry me because of the baby. I asked you to marry me, because I..." Tony began.
"I do not want to marry you, Tony and I don't want to see you again." Ziva repeated. "Ziva, look at me." Tony said as he reached out and put a hand on her shoulder.
She tried to stop crying and a few minutes later a nurse came in.
"I'm sorry sir..." The nurse began. "Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo," Tony told her.
"I'm sorry, Agent DiNozzo, but I'm going to have to ask you to leave." The nurse said as she put something into the IV.
"What are you doing?" Tony asked. "The doctors said she needs to be sedated so she can get some rest." The nurse replied.
Tony stayed another minute just watching Ziva and wondering what had happened, then walked out into the hallway. When he got out in the hallway…he saw Gibbs, Abby, Tim, Ducky, and Palmer.
He turned his back and began to walk the other way. He then found an empty room and sat down on the floor.
"Tony?" Said a voice as the door opened, but Tony just sat there in silence. "I want to be alone." Tony told Tim. "Talk to me." Tim said sitting down beside him.
Then Tony not knowing what else to do, who had been fighting the tears since he found out about the baby and what Ziva told him...broke down.
"She lost the baby and she said she doesn't want to see me again. I've lost them both, what am I going to do?" Tony asked.
"Tony, she's hurting as much as you are and I'm sure she didn't mean what she said about not wanting to see you..." Tim began putting a hand on Tony's shoulder.
"A nurse had to sedate her before I left the room. Why does this stuff keep happening to me?" Tony asked.
"It's not your fault..." Tim began. "I usually don't get this involved with a woman, but Ziva...she was different. I don't know what I'm going to do without her." Tony said.
"You two will make it through this." Tim said. "How can you be so sure?" Tony asked.
"Because you went almost around the world to kill a person who you thought had killed her. Then we found out she was alive. You two have made it through a lot and I know you two will make it through this. Just give Ziva a little time, before you try talk to her again." Tim told him.
Then they just sat there in silence for a while.
Finally, Tony stopped crying he got up and started to leave, but with his hand on the knob turned back to Tim.
"Thanks, Probie. Don't ever tell anyone...even Abby about what we just talked about." Tony told him and after McGee nodded his head in agreement, Tony left the room.
Tim made his way back down the hall to the group.
"Did you talk to him?" Abby asked getting up when she saw him. "Yes, but I can't tell you what was said." Tim replied.
