This story is based off of NCIS episode family first. This is how I think it should have ended
In this story jenny never died, she only left NCIS after dealing with a cancer scare
This is not a one shot
I know the summary is crappy but the story wo...
Its been three months since Tony's accident, three months since the loss of our baby, but things are looking better for us now, Tony's finally out of that wheel chair and able to walk on his own without complications and I guess I've been a little depressed within the past few months but it's been a little better. Today we're supposed to be having thanksgiving dinner at Gibbs house and even though I'm not exactly up for a family gathering I know this is the team's annual thing and I don't want to change things for tony any more than I already have
I got out of bed not wanting to be late for din er and went to check on Tali who was in her room playing with her dolls inside her toy chest

"Princess we have to get ready for dinner with Abba he's coming right after work which is in less than an hour so let's get you all cleaned up" I told her while picking her up, she giggled in my arms as I sat her on the bed picking out her clothes for them night then we went into the bathtub together
Tali: Ima bubbles
"I know, there's lots of bubbles just the way you like it" we spent a while in the bath tub, then I took her into mine and Tony's bedroom to get dressed
Tali: Abba
"He'll be here soon, we just need to get dressed so we can go see grandpa and the team" I told her dressing her then myself, once we were both ready I packed her backpack and we waited in the living room for tony who arrived a few minutes later already dressed and ready to go
Tony: where's my little princess?
Tali: Abba
She ran into his arms and he picked her up kissing her cheek
Tony: you look so beautiful, and so does your mom over here. Zi you look amazing in that dress, are you girls ready to get going?
"We are, where did you go to change?" I asked him
Tony: I just took a shower at the office and changed there to save more time. I didn't want to be late this year
He carried Tali and her little backpack to the car strapping her up in her car seat with me following behind and we all headed down to Gibbs house for dinner. I honestly wasn't up for a party but I went in with Tony and our daughter greeting everyone
Abby: ziva is everything okay with you? You've been so distant lately. You don't even take my calls anymore
Tony: Abby
Abby: it's just the three of us in here, you can tell me what's been bothering you so much that you don't even want me around
"It's not you Abby. I just needed time to myself for a while" I told her but as expected that answer didn't satisfy her
Abby: you left us for what felt like an eternity and yet still you need time? How much time does one person need?
"Me leaving wasn't about any of you. I needed to find myself and I couldn't do that at NCIS, yes I came to regret my decision but I needed to do that for me and these past few months haven't been about me not wanting to be around you guys. I.............I can't do this right now" I told her walking outside. I could feel the tears coming on and I just didn't want to cry about this anymore. Tony walked outside being me wrapping his arms around me
Tony: it's going to be okay. We'll be okay Zi
"I know...........I just.......this affects me more than I thought, but I'm okay. It's in the past just like you said" I told him, he held my hand walking me back inside with him
Abby: I'm really sorry, I didn't know
"You told her?" I asked him
Tony: I did, she won't say anything to anyone else, she just wanted to make sure you were okay
"I know and it is okay, I am fine and I should have just told you a long time ago"
Abby: I get why you didn't, you needed some space but I'm glad your alright and I know you'll have many more little DiNozzo's in the future
"Yeah, your right about that last part" I told her
Tony: you seem a little too sure about that, is there something my ninja wants to tell me?
"I was going to tell you later tonight, but yes. I am pregnant" I told him and the biggest smile appeared across his face
Tony: this is the best possible news I could have ever gotten today. You have no idea just how much I love you
"I'm scared Tony" I confessed and he pulled me into his embrace
Tony: I can see that, but the baby will be okay. You shouldn't be worried about something you had no control over happening again and it's okay to be afraid sometimes, we don't expect you to be emotionless
"Can we wait a while before telling everyone? I'm only a few weeks, I don't want to make this announcement until I'm past the first trimester" I told him
Tony: then we'll wait, Abby that means you too
Abby: I won't say a word of it I promise. We should probably get to the table, Gibbs had a date he's bringing and I'm dying to meet her
"I didnt seen any strange cars parked out front" I told abby watching her smile fade "maybe he drove her here" I thought as we headed into the kitchen, palmer was running around with Tali and his daughter Victoria while everyone helped set the table. I didn't see Gibbs anywhere or this mystery date of his
Abby: McGee where is Gibbs?
McGee: he and ducky went down to get something from the basement
Gibbs and ducky came up a short while later with two handmade high chairs for the girls that were both beautifully made and beside them stood the last person we'd expect, former NCIS director Jenifer Shepard
