The title comes from the post it notes that Nell handed Eric in OPS. I call then sticky notes while others call it post - its.

Dedication:
To Australian cricketer Phillip Hughes who was just doing his job when he was struck with a cricket ball and tragically passed away.

Exposure.

'OK, Merle Jarvis' Nell began as she typed and held her tablet in both hands 'He used to run Global Salvation solutions, provides international relief in the Middle East' she stated as she typed and slid her fingers across the tablet as Eric turned from the table in the middle of OPS to look at the big screen while holding his own tablet.

'Interesting' Nell continued 'There's no indication why he left the company. He's been off the grid since 2008. His last known address is in Arizona. So I guess we're gonna have to try a different route' she sighed in conclusion as she looked up from her tablet to the plasma to see over turned cars on fire and victims lying on the ground from the bomb blast that had happened that morning.
She then looked back to Eric who was watching the footage.
'Hey. What's up? Are you OK?' she asked concerned.

Eric sighed and tightened his grasp on his own tablet 'When those people woke up, they didn't know this was the last morning they'd see'

Nell nodded her head in agreement 'Yeah I know. It's been getting to me too' she finished as she turned back to the table laying her tablet on the table and looking down.

'If you don't tell someone how you feel about them; you may never get the chance'

'You're right' agreed Nell, looking up at Eric sadly. 'People should just put it out there while they can' she concluded as both she and Eric looked at each other.
Eric turned to the table and Nell turned her head watching him, giving him a questioning look as he picked up a pen and turned his body away from her.
'What you doin' over there?' she questioned.

'Puttin' it out there while I can' Eric replied as he looked at Nell.

Nell nodded in agreement as she leaned across the table 'OK. I'm game' she acknowledged as she took a pen and a pile of yellow post - it notes and began writing as Eric continued to write on his own post - it note.

Eric stopped writing and turned to look at Nell who was just finishing what she was writing.

Peeling the top sticky note off the pad, Nell threw the pen on the table, turned and faced Eric 'We don't talk about this' Eric told Nell seriously. 'Agreed?'

'Agreed' Nell acknowledged with a nod of her head.

'Ready?' Eric questioned

'Go' answered Nell as she reached out for Eric's note.

When they swapped notes, both looked down at the post - it notes they now held.
As Nell read hers, her eyes widened as she cast a glance at Eric with a tight smile.
As Eric read Nell's note his own eyes widened as he looked at Nell with wide eyes. 'Heh'

OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoO

Upon sending ID photos of Bakri's two roommates to FBI, LAPD and Homeland Security upon Granger's request Nell informed Callen that she would tell Kensi and Deeks to meet himself and Sam at the high rise at Wilshire and Whitland where the car and explosives were headed.

As the Agents tracked the men, Nell Jones tapped her pen on the table waiting for an update.
Upon hearing the rhythmic tapping stop, Eric looked up from his work station to Nell who was busy writing. 'Whatya doing partner' Eric inquired, getting up and walking over to Nell.

'Letting the team know how I feel about them, because one day I may never get the chance'
Finished writing Nell picked up the four sticky notes and walked out of OPS, down the stairs to the Agents' desk; grateful that no one was around to see or question what she was doing.
Holding the last post - it in her hands she looked at it and sighed - it was now or never. And Eric was right, if you don't tell someone how you feel about them, you may never get the chance. She placed the note on his desk, turned away from it and walked back up to OPS.

OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoO

With all four Agents having returned to the mission after the day's events they began to pack up their belongings to head home.

Callen picked up a yellow sticky note that was near his bag 'Uh!'

At hearing surprise in his partner's voice, Sam turned and looked at Callen 'What is it'? He questioned.

Callen looked up from the sticky note and to his partner 'Someone just left me a love note' he answered with pride in his voice.

'Let me see that' Sam said, walking over to Callen and trying to grab the yellow sticky note out of the man's hands.

'No. no, no' replied Callen as he turned away from Sam, trying to protect the note.

'Let me see it'

'This is between me and my Juliet' Callen answered with a smile as Sam laughed.

'Not so fast fair Romeo' began Deeks as he held up his own post - it note. 'Turns out somebody, uh...somebody loves themselves some Deeks too'

'Yeah?' questioned Callen as he looked up from re - reading his note to look at Deeks

'And has a thing for intelligent brunettes' Kensi answered as she read her own note.

Not wanting to be left out Special Agent Sam Hanna searched his own desk until he found his own note 'And really loves tall, dark handsome men with razor sharp wit'

'Oh you must have gotten mine' said Deeks as Nell and Eric made their way down the stairs from OPS with a nervous smile on both their lips.

'It says tall dark and handsome' Sam retorted.

'Well, uh, goodnight, guys' Nell fare welled as she looked at Eric then to the Agents.

'Night's not over yet you two' Callen stated as he and the other's walked towards the wonder twins.

'It's not questioned Eric as Nell looked at Callen.

'Uh - huh' replied Deeks as he held up a post it note and Nell nodded.

'When everything's on the line, like it was today' began Callen as he looked around at the team 'there's nobody I'd rather have by me side'

'Amen' said Sam.

'Let's get a drink, huh?' suggested Callen.

OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoO

Arriving early the following morning, Nell made her way up to OPS. Walking towards her computer she found a yellow stick note stuck to her computer screen. She picked it up and grinned as she read the note 'I like you to'
