Sarah David was the daughter of Jethro and Ziva Gibbs. She had curly brunette locks and bright vivid blue eyes.

The Israeli-American nineteen year old girl sat on a hospital bed, she had been in labour for a very painful four hours.

She was thirty seven weeks gone in her pregnancy. Something was different with this pregnancy though. Sarah was not the mother.

She was this unborn baby's big sister.

Ziva held her daughter's hand throughout the pregnancy and throughout the labour.

Eight hours later; Sarah lay exhausted with a spaced out smile painted across her face with beige lipstick and slight layer of lip gloss.

Ziva sat beside her daughter, cradling her newborn son. The little one was named Jethro Shalom Gibbs. Shalom was also his elder sister's middle name. To honor her for giving him life, and for giving her parents the gift of another child. The child they struggled to concieve. After years of trying, and years of failed IVF attempts, Sarah offered to give them the hand that they needed. She was so proud to carry for her mother, she wanted to show her mother that she loved her more than anything in the world and would literally do anything for the woman.

Sarah smiled the feeling of happiness that she felt after doing this (and the effect of the drugs) was more happiness than she had ever felt. She smiled and lay back, ready to sleep.

She smiled at her little brother as he watched everyone with his bright blue eyes. A healthy baby boy. Leroy Jethro Gibbs was more than happy with his family. Nothing could take this away from them. Not now. Not ever.
