That was good
I could visualize it
What was the song

I find really sad that it always seems to be anice exchange, one life foright another, someone suffers for another to be happy.

This is a great story. Awesome...thanks for writing it.

Well that was a nice story and i agree with you that it would have been interesting to see tony in the diner with all these people on the show but i guess gibbs deserves some attention too.
And i admire Tony Because i know if it would have been me to choose these two lives i would have gone with me having my love of my life and my family, despite everyone dying. So he is a lot more un selfish and ziva does not seem to bad of a choice either. He had more time with her than with Kate and you can love another person i suppose. Still the ending is a bit too much Tiva for my Tage because i cannot forgive her for stomping him to the ground not only literally in the past seasons.
But for this story if may work and maybe he can save her from the events of Berlin happening, the dance they got here anyway to not much loss in that.
And nobody in his right mind would give mcgee sich an undercover assignment the more realistic version would be threatening tony into doing it despite being together with Kate and in the wake of it straining their relationship. But also this tony that married Kate had Graton some balls and wouldn't be that manipulated to go along with that.
I just love alternative scenarios you can play so much with them.
Enough rambling, i enjoyed that story Very Much and thank you for writing it.

I never read this til tonite...all 11 chapters at once. Fantastic story; would make a great script for NCIS.

very sweet, thanks for posting, i am so sad without my hopes of tiva fluff. this hit the spot

after thought as i am slow processing, did you name Jeanne's kid Sasha after Sasha Alexander?

Beautiful...just beautiful.

Wow... I wish "Life Before His Eyes" had been more like this! I loved it!

This is the only thing ever that could ever get close to explaining why Twilight had to happen. Thank you.

aww the storys finished! it was awesome! i loved it :D

Wonderful Story!

I wouldn't want him to have it any other way. Brilliant story. Sad to see it end but every good thing must come to an end.

Disappointed that this turned into solely Tony/Ziva toward the end and not a nice balanced end with all of the team.

Good take on the theme. Very enjoyable and well-written story.
