Without a Care in the World {Melissa-James-Open}

[Ziva David]

Ziva walks in with Kate holding her hand

Kate's just learning how to walk, so Ziva is very scared on letting Kate go, but as a mother, you just have to. Kate pulls on Ziva's arm, wanting to go to the swings. "Ok, Kate, we'll go to the Swings." Ziva says as they walk over to the swings. Ziva starts pushing Kate, and she pleads to go higher, and higher. "Kate, if you go any higher, you'll reach the moon!" Ziva says with a little chuckel. Ziva watches Kate smile and her giggles, with every push, every time she goes a little bit higher. 'How can they play and run without a care in the world?' Ziva thinks, as she pushed the swing agian. 'If they knew what was going on in the world today, would they still play and act like this?' Ziva ask herself again, moving to a new place is hard for her, moving with horses, starting a business, and having a child is extreemly hard for her, she doesn't know what to do sometimes, and she can't handle is most of the time.

Ziva's wearing shorts, and a pink tank top, today was such a nice day.

"Mommy! HIGHER!" Kate demands, the lower the swing has gotten.

Ziva zonned out, untill the "Mommy!" rang back in, "Sorry honey, higher?! You'll hit the moon this time!" Ziva says as she pushed Kate, Kate has been her pride and joy for the past two years, and today she's just getting bigger and bigger, it's nice to watch her grow, but then agian somtimes, frightens her at the same time.

"Mommy! I get off!" Kate says, as her swing comes to a stop and she hops off, and grabs hold of her mommy again.

Ziva slows the swing down, as Kate hops off. "Ok, where to?" Ziva asks, and Kate goes over to the slide. Ziva watches Kate slide down, and looks around, looking at all of these poeple, and how they all know someone, but Ziva, she left that behind.

[MELISSA KENNETH}}]

What the hell was she doing here alone? Ha, she didn't even know I guess this whole new place was sort of getting to her head these days. She hadn't made any effort to meet to people yet and I guess people went here didn't they? So why not start here? She hated being new, well somewhat after all it had been a month or so now and people she had met so far were annie, noelle, parker and another girl that she forgot the name of. She has bad memory sometimes unfortunetly it didn't come in handy.

She seemed to drag her feet along the grass tendrals of the park, her eyes looking towards the swings where a little girl was playing on the swings her mother pushing her high in the air as the little girl called out louder having her mother push her higher and higher in the air. Melissa smiled watching her through her chocolate brown eyes as she kept walking and found an empty swing sitting down upon it, and sighing slightly as she kicked her feet off the ground swinging herself through the air carelessly.

It was warm out but not as hot as it had been the day before when she had been riding, luckily she had to go back to the barn again this afternoon and take Ticket on a trail ride to take it easy for a day since they had been working hard for a couple weeks now preparing for the SAS jump. They would be ready now, they had to be.

Ziva sees a person watching Kate and her

She seemed as if they have met before, but Ziva doesn't know a name for this face. Ziva watches Kate slide down and go back agian, for ten more times. "Kate it's time for some lunch okay?" Ziva said as Kate came running over to her. 'maybe I should invite her to sit with us.' Ziva thought as Kate protested, she was zoned out again, as she and Kate started walking over to the person watching them.[/color]

"Mommy, I said I didn't want to!" Kate said as she pulled on Ziva's pants leg in the oppisite direction.

"Kate, honey, once you eat your lunch, then we can play some more ok?" Ziva said as she picked Kate up and conntinued walking over to the other person. Kate started kicking Ziva when she picked her up.

"MOMMY!" Kate said.

"Ok, I'll put you down, but if you don't cut it out Kate, we'll go straight home, no see the horses, and no more playing, got it?" Ziva said in a harsh wishper.

"Yes mommy." Kate said with a defeted look.

Ziva held onto Kate's hand. "Hi there, my names Ziva, and this is my daughter Kate. You look familiar, do you ride horses by any chance?" Ziva asked as Kate hid behind her leg, when Ziva introduced them.[/size]

[James Rowan]

Jamie entered the park at a leisure walk. He had planned on sleeping most, if not all of the day, but due to a phone call from his best friend and considered brother back in Mexico informing him that his grandmother was in the hospital in the ICU due to a heart-attack... well, needless to say he wasn't in that good of a mood... and it showed. He hadn't slept hardly at all, as he'd been up half the night worrying.

He'd dressed in a daze, pulling on whatever he'd grabbed and he wore a pair of jeans that were probably the worst in his closet... horribly faded and threadbare in places. A black sleeveless shirt covered his upper body. He wore black skate shoes and had pulled his dreadlocked hair back into an extremely messy ponytail.

His face was slightly pale and his eyes were slightly red-rimmed from the tears he'd shed just a little while earlier when he'd recieved the second call... this time from one of the doctors in Mexico informing him that his grandmother wasn't expected to live through the night. Her body couldn't handle it. It wasn't too surprising that when he'd left the house, he'd opted to not drive his Hummer because he wasn't sure he wouldn't wreck it or take it somewhere and destroy it in a fit of rage, as he was sometimes prone to when hit with something major such as this.

He needed a pet... a dog or something, he thought as he stopped just inside the park and glanced around. James saw no one he knew in the immediate area, which wasn't surprising as the park was big and he could only see half of it from where he stood... and he really didn't know many people anyway.

He walked slowly down through the park, feeling just a little bit lost. His grandparents on his dads side were dead, his grandfather on his mums side was dead, and now his only remaining grandparent was dieing. What next? He didn't think he could take another curveball... the pain from his grandfather's recent death was still too fresh, and coupled with his grandmothers iminent death...

Jamie whirled around, fist formed, and punched. He didn't hit anyone, no, as there was no one to hit, but instead his fist made contact with a large tree. There was no wince of pain as he brought his hand away, knuckles skinned and bloody... just an intense look of rage and pain. The tree was punched again, same hand, and Jamie heard more than felt the break of bone... Good, any pain was welcome if it could take his mind off his family. He wasn't even aware of the few tears that had once more spilled over and were running down his face.

"Why..." His fist his the tree again, and he ignored the burn in his hand as another bone cracked, "does..." A wince as he clenched his fist tighter, "this..." He didn't finish the sentence. Jamie couldn't deal with death. Plain and simple. It was a good thing he hadn't driven the Hummer... he'd have surely wrecked or trashed it.

Muse is good!

SO WHAT I'M STILL ,,
a * r o c k s t a r !

Ziva looked at the other person, she knew him from somewhere, but why was he so mad? She didn't want to impose on him, so she stood infront of this girl, they just met, and she's hopeing they'll be friends, but then part of her wants to go and see if the guy was alright. "Wait it's James!" Ziva said outloud, that's know she knew him, they went riding in the outdoor ring one day, and Diaz bucked him off.

"James! Is everything alright? I'm Ziva from the barn, with Alex, we met on the ground, after both of our horses bucked us off." Ziva said with a chuckle, Kate grabbed Ziva's leg, Ziva knew that Kate didn't know anyone here, and she didn't like that, but she'll have to learn eventually right? Ziva looked at James, she really hoped that everything was alright with him.

The day was sunny, it was a perfect day to go to the park. "Mommy! I'm hungry!!" Kate whinned as she pulled on Ziva's pant leg.

"Okay, honney, here" Ziva said as she crouched down and gave Kate a juice box and some pretzels. Ziva looked up to the sun, she'll get a good tan today. Ziva watched Kate eat her pretzels, like Ziva does, slowly, and in a perfect way, you need to bit the diffrent sides, it took hard work! The day started to get cooler, as she watched James.
