Charity arrived home to find Tony getting dressed in their bedroom. He turned to face her as he pulled his shirt on and began to button it. He gave her one of his charming smiles. "How are you feeling?" He asked.

"About as well as any woman can be when her husband's two grandmothers are coming from foreign countries just to meet her." She answered.

"They'll love you." He told her, pulling her into his arms and kissing the top of her head. "What's not to love?"

Charity pulled back. "Well, grandmothers don't usually tend to like it when the woman ends up pregnant before the wedding...a lot of older women disagree with my choice of a career."

Tony put a finger to her lips. "Don't utter another negative thought. They will love you." Then he removed his finger and replaced it with his lips.

After a few more moments, Charoty pulled back to break the kiss. She couldn't help but to smile up at her husband. "I need to get dressed." She said, pulling away and walking over to the closet. She rummaged through the maternity dresses she'd bought until she found the perfect one.

The dress was a simple knee-length emerald green dress. It had spaghetti straps and sinched in right below her bust and flowed out over her swollen stomach. She then went into the bathroom and fixed her hair and make-up. When she came out, she looked at Tony. "How do I look?" She asked.

"Gorgeous, as always." He answered, pulling her into his arms for another kiss.

After a few minutes, they broke the kiss and then headed out. They soon arried at the restaurant. Tony parked the car and then helped Charity out. They walked inside and were led by the hostess to their table, where everyone else was already waiting for them.

Charity took in a deep breath as they approached the table. Everyone stood up once they reached the table. Senior instantly pulled Charity into a hug and kissed her cheek. "There's my beautiful daughter-in-law."

Charity grinned and gave him a kiss on the cheek. "You're too much." She replied.

After a few more moments, Tony introduced Charity to his grandmothers. "Charity, this is Grammy "Nozzo." Tony said, gesturing to the first elderly woman. "Grammy, this is my wife, Charity."

The woman had long snow white hair that she wore down. She had on a simple purple dress with a white floral pattern. She instantly threw her arms around Charity and kissed both of her cheeks. "Such a beautiful girl. Welcome to the family." She greeted her. Then her eyes moved to Charity's stomach. "And the bambino!" She exclaimed as she placed her hands on Charity's stomach.

Charity grinned. "Thank you." was all she could think to say.

Grammy 'Nozzo stepped away. Then Tony introduced Charity to his other grandmother. "And this is my Grandma Paddington."

Charity looked at this other woman. She was dressed in a smart gray skirt suit and her hair was cut short. She reminded Charity of the Queen. The woman stood up and held out her hand. "Hello Charity. It is nice to finally meet you. I just wish I could have been at the wedding." She greeted Charity, but turned to Tony with her last sentance.

"Sorry, Grandma. That would be my fault." Tony told her.

"I know." She said giving him a stern look.

Charity was having a hard time not laughing at the scene. She then turned a bright smile to Tony's Grandma Paddington. "It's nice to meet you as well."

They all then sat down, Tony pulling out a chair for his wife, before taking his own seat next to her. Just as Tony's Grandma Paddington opened her mouth to speak, the waitress came and took their drink orders. Once the waitress was gone, Grandma Paddington looked at Charity.

"Charity, what is it you do for a living?" Mrs. Paddington asked.

"I'm the lead agent of the Major Case Squad at NCIS." Charity answered.

"What is NCIS?" Mrs. Paddington inquired.

"Naval Criminal Investigative Service. I investigate crimes in the Navy and Marines."

"So, you're a Navy Copper?" Mrs. Paddington clarified.

"Yes." Charity answered.

"And she's in charge." Grammy 'Nozzo added.

"Just of my team." Charity replied.

"So, how did you meet my handsome grandson?" Grammy 'Nozzo inquired.

"We worked a couple of cases together." Charity answered.

"And trust me it was not fun taking orders from her." Tony added with a grin.

Charity looked at her husband with a smile. "You know you enjoyed every second of it."

"The DiNozzo men have always loved a woman on top." Grammy 'Nozzo said with a grin.

Charity all of a sudden felt her face flush and she let out a nervous giggle. Tony had been taking a sip of his drink and choked slightly. He'd forgotten just how onery his Grammy 'Nozzo could be.

Grammy 'Nozzo gave them both a sly grin. "So, I haven't yet been told, is the bambino a boy or girl? Or do you know?"

"A boy." Tony answered with a proud grin on his face.

"We're naming him Aiden James." Charity added. "AJ for short."

"Initials? I've always hated that." Mrs. Paddington said.

"Grandma," Tony began, "That's what we're naming him. He is our son."

"Well." Was all Mrs. Paddington said.

The waitress then returned and took their food order and then left. She soon returned with their food. The group ate in an awkward silence. After a little while the table began some small talk. Every so often Grammy 'Nozzo would come up with an onery joke to lighten the mood.

A while later, Tony and Charity were in the car on their way home. "That went well." Tony said.

"Yeah, went over like a lead balloon." Charity replied. "Your Grandma Paddington hates me."

"No, she's just that way with everyone." Tony replied. "And I have a feeling that Grammy 'Nozzo will be over tomorrow."

"Why?" Charity asked.

"She loves you, already." Tony answered. "She'll probably cook for you. She'll want to make sure her great grandson gets great Italian food from the start."

Charity couldn't help but smile at that. She also really liked the idea of authentic Italian food.
