A/N: this story is as if Callen and Nell had known each other from before she arrived at NCIS and had a thing a while back

Disclaimer: I own nothing but Chase and Jamie O'Connor

Pairings: Sam/OC Kensi/Deeks Callen/Nell

G Callen had met Nell Jones a few years ago when working on an OP for the CIA and they had a few month fling while undercover with each other and she had told him about the baby and of course he was there when he could find the time with work but not as much as he wanted

Hetty had no idea about the fling Callen and the new intelligence analyst had but her friend at the CIA had heard she might be looking for a partner for the technical operator and met with her over tea one early morning at her place, "Jamie good to see you made it here."

Jamie O'Connor was the man running the computer department in the CIA and had been friends with Hetty for over 30 years, "Hetty always good to see you around. I had heard around you were looking to get a partner for your technical operator."

She pours them both a cup of tea, "Mr. Beale is very good at his job but lately the strain of some of the case load I fear is getting to him and feel if he had a partner it could help but you have someone in mind already don't you? Hard to think would want to get rid of one."

He smirks handing her a file, "You remember she helped on the Panther cult a year ago. She's young but I think ready to get away from us. She has experience with weapons and very good at what she does what think could work well with your 'kids' though."

She looks over the file, "She has a small child?"

He nods and sips his tea, "Chase is about 3 months old now. I think that's why she wants to get to more of a stable place."

Hetty sighs sipping her own tea, "I can bring her in on a trial basis and see what happens from there but up to Mr. Callen and his team."

He chuckles at the thought, "I have had the privilege of working with him a few times in the past and he can be stubborn but I do hope she can fit in. The dad isn't around really-"

She raises her hand to stop him, "Don't worry they will grow to like her and knowing how Mr. Hanna is about protecting his own daughter I am sure he will understand and be good. I will let you know by friday seeing its Monday now how she fares with them."

He stands up and they hug, "I already gave her the Mission directions and she might bring the baby since she's still working on getting a sitter."

She smiles, "I will make sure she can have everything she needs Jamie and sure your quite fond of her and hard to let her go."

He sets his cup down running his hand through his gray hair, "She's one of the best I know at that field and brilliant mind just think she needs something more."

Hetty sees him out and looks at the file and at the picture he had added of the infant and wonders why he looks like someone she can't place as she heads to the Mission and see Eric is already in OPs and Randy Carson one of the security guys comes over, "Hetty you have a visitor said expecting her."

Hetty looks up from her file and see a short red-headed woman carrying a car seat, "Thank you Mr. Carson. Ms. Jones have a seat."

Nell set the car seat with the sleeping infant in one chair and sat in the other, "Sorry about having to bring him just having trouble finding a sitter since moved here and he called at the last moment and really couldn't find one so fast," she said and is stopped.

Hetty pours two cups of tea and sets one in front of her, "No problem at all. I think you may fit in well here in time. We have 3 teams usually. Right now 2 are all away on OPs and the other one will be here around 9 which is the main team here. Follow me and can show you to OPs Center."

Nell follows her looking around the huge place and jumps as they enter through sliding doors and they close right away, "Wow nice set up."

Eric turns around when he hears her, "Morning Hetty."

Hetty turns to the man, "Mr. Eric Beale meet Ms. Nell Jones and she will be your partner up here. After she fills out some stuff want you to show her around our system and make sure she knows about everything in and out of them and everything else."

He nods looking her over and feeling jealous she had brought in a partner for him, "Um...sure Hetty."

Hetty turned to her, "Follow me and we can get started. Mr. Beale please bring a play yard to the bullpen from upstairs."

Nell follows her back to her office, "We have a small work station down here that can also use when don't need the big computers. Security in here is tight and no need to worry little guy will be fine if you place him in the play yard while you fill some stuff out. There are very few women around here mostly support staff but one female agent."

Nell takes the files, "Where can I fill them out?"

Eric walks over, "Mr. Beale since Mr. Hanna and Deeks and Mrs. Blye's desks are a mess show her to the other desk to use."

He sighs and leads her to the one desk around that could see the top of and sets the thing up, "So what's his name?"

She sets him down and covers top of the car seat with a blanket, "Chase."

"Need something or help just ask Hetty or come and find me. They should be in here in about 2 hours so have plenty of time to fill them out."

~~~NCIS:LA~~~

Hetty looks up from her paperwork as hear someone approaching, "Ms. Jones?"

Nell hands her the files, "I finished them."

Hetty looks them over and makes sure everything is in order, "Good to know. Mr Beale can show you around the place and make sure you know where everything is and I will keep an eye on him while you do that and then the team will be here by the time you are back here."

Not long after she left with Eric did she hear Callen come into the bullpen arguing with someone on the phone, "Come on Sam my eating choices aren't that bad." Callen shrugs and sees a play yard where he looks inside and shakes his head as the baby starts to cry and he picks him up and sits on the edge of the desk as the baby curls up in his arms.

Sam walks in confused about why his partner was holding a baby, "G, what's with the baby?"

Hetty walks in and hands Callen a bottle, "Our new intelligence analysis had to bring him in today and Mr. Callen was nice enough to help him when started to cry."

Sam chuckles at his partner, "You are good with my kids so guess just your charm."

He rolls his eyes and spies Eric and someone walking towards them and instantly realizes why he recognized the baby as Kensi and Deeks walked in, "Now that all here can meet Ms Jones who will be our new intelligence analyst. These are..."

Deeks looks at her and holds out his hand, "Detective Marty Deeks but just Deeks."

Kensi slaps her partner's shoulder, "Kensi. Nice to have another woman around here with everyone other than Hetty male."

Sam holds his hand to his heart in hurt way, "Harsh Kensi. Sam."

She shakes their hands and locks eyes with Callen who doesn't answer but Sam does after a minute, "The one holding the baby is G Callen."

Hetty can sense there's something more between her lead agent and new analysis but will have to see, "You two can start to go over things up there and since on paperwork today you 4 are going to keep the baby company down here and finish the mountains of paperwork."

Nell sighs and follows Eric and once out of earshot Sam turns to his partner, "Good look on you G."

Callen rolls his eyes at his partner as he sits down in his seat situating his in his arms so still drinking the bottle, "Shut up Sam."

Kensi laughs with Sam, "He's right Callen kid with you is a good look."

Eric sits down in his usual station and she sits next to him, "Don't worry Sam has two kids and wont let anything happen to him. Seems took a liking to Callen though."

~~~NCIS:LA~~~

Around noon

There was no new case and they were all catching up on case files when Sam, Kensi, Eric and Deeks left for lunch leaving Callen who was still seemed to be in his own mind and once he was sure they were gone he headed to OPs to see Nell clicking away, "Not nice to stare G."

He chuckles softly and moves to lean against the spot next to where she was working, "Thought we could go and get some lunch and talk."

She sighs and looks up at him, "Sure how about our old haunt? Still remember?"

He rolls his eyes standing up and pulls her up from her chair and leads her to his Tahoe he had gotten since Aston Martin was being repaired and see a car seat inside, "Hetty must have figured was going to take you to lunch sometimes she seems to know everything," he sets him inside and luckily remembers how to fasten it from times Sam taught him and drives to a small cafe down by the beach and they find a table by the window and can see the ocean from there. "So?"

She holds his hand, "G, I got the offer to come work with Hetty last night and thought if anything we can try and be friends from his sake."

He takes a deep breath and shakes his head, "Nell I never stopped caring about you. After I saw you after he was born and then had to leave a few days later that was about the hardest thing had to do. You really don't know how hard we work."

She smacks his hand, "G, I have worked with the CIA sense was 19 and out of college. You were and still are my first love. No one knows who his real father is but the birth certificate still has your last name unlike the one on file and the one you have."

He chuckles and orders some hamburgers, "Not sure how long until Hetty figures this out since you will find out she seems to know about everything and pops up from no where but can go to when need something and is good at getting what she wants. Sam may have nothing but muscles but he cares for everyone he considers family. He has a wife and a daughter Kayla and son Zack but rarely talks about them at work because I think it makes him realize how much he really is missing but knows he wants to save people. Kensi she hates going to hospitals and really talking about her feelings and really only one that can get her to do anything she doesn't want to is Deeks most of the time. Deeks is tougher then he looks and tends to ramble on about stuff. Him and Kensi argue about meaningless things all the time but no one knows why he hasn't become an agent and have a thing going on obvious to everyone but them."

~~~NCIS:LA~~~

The waitress comes back with their orders and they eat quietly and once they head back to OPs, "G, I hope we can do something once again."

He shakes his head and once at Mission he leans over and kisses her briefly, "Can take it as slow as you want to Pixie."

She smirks and see all the cars are there, "Think should go in before they come looking? Or might start asking questions."

"How about if no case today we can go out to get something to eat and catch up." He asked getting out of the car.

Hetty looks up as Callen and Nell walk inside, "Ms. Jones one of your neighbors a Mrs. Lindsey Daniel's is an old friend of mine and has experience with small children and runs a daycare from her home and already have spoken to her and willing to watch him while at work."

Nell smiles down at her and briefly glances over at Callen who has sat down at his desk, "Sure let me know where and can meet her sometime soon."

Deeks looks up from his paperwork, "How lucky can you get to get Callen to take you out for lunch?"

Callen and Kensi shoot him a death glare, "Nothing you have to worry about Deeks," Nell reassure the detective.

He rolls his eyes at her and turns back to his desk, "Whatever you say."

next chapter is when Callen and Nell break it to Hetty and the team how they know each other after they run into some trouble
