It was a dark, stormy night as Ziva woke up with a start from another nightmare, which was a haunted memory of recently killing Hoffman.
She sat up in bed and Tony did likewise.
“Another nightmare?” he guessed.
“The same one,” she confirmed.
He put a comforting arm around her.
“It’ll eventually go away. Just give it time. They did for me. Then I just didn’t have them anymore,” he replied, trying to be of comfort to her.
She rested her head on his shoulder and sighed, thankful for Tony’s presence. He was very reassuring and understanding. He always had her back, no matter what, she realized, memories surfacing.
She smiled.
