Charity spent a great weekend with her dad, but he did have to return to Quantico. It was now Monday and before she headed for work, Charity had her first doctor's appointment. She and Tony would be getting to hear the baby's heart beat and get the first ultrasound.

They sat in the doctor's office waiting room. A nurse came out and called them back. She took Charity's height and weight and then led Tony and Charity back to an exam room. "We'll check your vitals." The nurse said, pulling the blood pressure cuff from the wall next to the table. After she checked Charity's blood pressure, she took her pulse and checked a few other things. "How has your morning sickness been?" The nurse asked.

"Better." Charity answered. "It's been just a couple of times a day here lately."

The nurse nodded and jotted that down. Then she pointed to a piece of fabric folded up on a sink, against the wall. "You can change into that gown over there, and the doctor will be in in a minute." The nurse said and then headed out the door.

Tony looked at Charity with a grin. "You want some help getting out of those clothes?" He asked.

Charity laughed and shook her head. "That kind of behavior is what got us here." She teased.

"Can't blame me for trying." Tony told her.

Charity giggled and then slid off the table. Then she slipped out of her clothes and into the gown. She hopped back up on the table. Tony walked so that he was standing in front of her. He put his hands on either side of her face and looked into her eyes.

"You look incredibly beautiful." He told her.

Charity smiled at him. "Oh yes, in my lovely shapeless gown."

"You're forgetting thin, too." Tony replied, grinning.

Charity giggled. "Just kiss me already."

"With pleasure." Tony said, bending down and pressing his lips to hers in a tender kiss. He pulled back and stroked her face. "I love you." He told her.

"I love you, too." Charity replied.

Tony dipped his head down again and kissed Charity. He deepened the kiss and held her close. "You two need to cool it." Teased a strong female voice from the doorway. "That's what got you here in the first place."

They broke the kiss and Tony moved away to sit down on a stool beside the table. The doctor smiled at them. "I'm Dr. Lisa Jamison." She introduced herself, extending her hand. "It's nice to meet you, Charity."

"It's nice to meet you, too doctor." Charity replied.

Dr. Jamison then turned to Tony. "And you must be the expectant father." She said.

"Tony." He replied, shaking her hand.

"Well, let's get a look at your baby and listen to the heart beat." Dr. Jamison said after the introductions were over.

Charity leaned back on the exam table and lifted the gown to reveal her stomach. The doctor squeezed some cold jelly from a tube onto Charity's stomach. She turned the ultrasound machine on and then grabbed the wand and moved it over Charity's stomach.

After a few moments, the doctor pointed to the screen. "That little circle there is your baby." She announced.

Charity looked at the screen. She saw the circle that the doctor was pointing to. It was then that it really hit her. That's our baby. Charity thought. I really do have this other human life growing inside of me.

Tony was lost in his own thoughts as they looked at the screen. That's my baby. This is real. Tony thought to himself. I'm going to be a dad.

"And the baby has a nice strong and steady heart beat. Here listen closely." The doctor said, turning the volume up.

A steady thump thump sound was now coming through. After a few more moments, Dr. Jamison finished the ultrasound. She printed off a couple of pictures and handed them to Tony and Charity. "I'll leave you to get changed. Then you're free to leave."

An hour later at NCIS...

Charity stepped off the elevator and started for her desk. She wasn't surprised to find Abby waiting for her. "So, do you have a picture?" Abby asked excitedly.

Charity smiled and reached into her pocket. She pulled out the little black and white photo from the ultrasound and handed it to Abby. "The little circle there is the baby." She pointed out.

"Oh my gosh!" Abby gushed. "This is so exciting!"

Charity couldn't help but smile and agree. "It is very exciting."

"You know, when I was in college, I thought about becoming an ultrasound technician." Abby said. "Can I borrow this picture for a little bit?"

"Why?" Charity asked.

"It's a surprise." Abby answered.

Charity smiled. "Alright."

Tony...

Tony sat at his desk. He was working on filling out some case reports, but his eyes kept flickering to the picture of his baby. "Hey man, how'd the doctor's appointment go?" Dan asked, coming up behind him and clapping Tony on the shoulder.

"Good." Tony answered. "Everything is going good."

"You got a picture from the ultrasound?"

Tony picked up the picture and handed it to Dan. "The circle is the baby."

Dan looked at the picture. "Did you guys hear the heart beat?"

"Yeah." Tony answered. "It's pretty amazing."

"Just think about it, you're gonna be a dad." Dan replied.

"I know." Tony replied.

"So, you guys tell her dad yet?"

"She told him over the weekend." Tony answered.

"How'd he take it?"

"She said he was pretty excited about becoming a grandpa." Tony answered. "Said he's happy to have a grandbaby to brag about."

"How about your dad?" Dan asked.

"I haven't told him yet." Tony answered.

"How do you think he'll react?"

"I'm not really sure." Tony answered. "He might be a little upset that he's a grandpa now, I mean that might hurt his chances with the younger women."

Dan chuckled. "Have you even called him or tried?"

"No." Tony confessed. "What do I even say?"

"Call him, when he answers say Hey grandpa." Dan answered. "Or Charity's pregnant."

Tony chuckled. "I don't know about that."

Just then Tony's cell phone started to ring. He looked at the caller id screen. "Speak of the devil." He said and showed Dan that his father was calling.

"Pick it up and say Hi grandpa." Dan teased.

Tony laughed and shook his head. Then he hit the accept button and held the phone to his ear. "Hey Dad." Tony answered, unable to bring himself to tell his dad the news.

"Hey Junior." Senior replied. "I'm on a plane on my way to DC right now."

"Why?" Tony asked, before he could stop himself.

"Well to see you and that beautiful fiance of yours. I'm assuming you've asked her by now and that she's said yes." Senior replied.

"Yeah." Tony said.

"Wonderful, she's going to be a wonderful Mrs. DiNozzo." Senior replied. "I'm also attending a black tie benefit tonight. I have a...a good friend I'd like for you to meet tonight. I think you'll both like her."

"Dad...I don't..." Tony began.

"Oh. I gotta go Junior." Senior said. "I'll see you in a couple of hours." Then he hung up.

Tony hung up his phone, feeling slightly exasperated. He let out a sigh. "My father is something else." He muttered.

Dan chuckled. "Sounds like you're going to be having fun."

"I don't know if fun is the word I would use." Tony replied.
