A/N Thanks Sarah! ( my awesome beta)
I own nothing you have seen on the show.
Enjoy.
The morning started just like any other morning. The sun was already high on the horizon and many people were out, enjoying their day at the beach. Many people were making their way to work or school, just like in any other morning. Callen and Sam, on the other hand, were having their usual morning bickering.
"Why were you late?" Sam asked starting the usual argument.
"I was busy." Callen said walking next to him, without elaborating his answer more than what he had to.
"Doing what exactly? You don't sleep, you don't work out, and I know you didn't have a date last night." Sam fought back, trying to figure out why his partner had once again showed up later than what they had previously agreed to meet.
"It doesn't matter. I still picked you up didn't I?" Sam couldn't argue with that logic, especially given to the fact that they weren't even late for work.
"That's beside the point G, and you know it."
"I know a lot of things Sam."
Sam rolled his eyes at his partner's witty responses as they arrived at the bullpen. They saw Kensi sitting at her desk reading a book while listening to her iPod. Nothing out of ordinary there except for the fact that she wasn't holding the usual burrito on her hand but both agents figured that she was finally following their wise advices-
"What's up, Kensi?" They said simultaneously.
"Hi Callen! Hi Sam." A voice said from behind them. They turned around with confused looks on their faces. Kensi was standing there with a smile on her face and the usual burrito on her hand.
"Wait. How'd you get behind us?" Callen asked, not fully believing that he wasn't dreaming.
"And changed clothes?" Sam pitched in also with confusion written all over his features.
"I have been wearing this since I left my apartment and I just walked in." Kensi said looking back and forth between them like as if they were crazy.
"Then who is that and why does she look like you?" Kensi looked to see where Callen was pointing to and couldn't believe her eyes.
"Oh my God! Kate!" she said running over to the woman. "I don't believe it!"
"You better believe it!" the woman replied with a laugh, obviously amused with Kensi's reaction.
"What are you doing here?" Kensi was dying to know all the details had had obviously forgotten all about the two confuse agents.
"I've been transferred. I was told to look for Agent Callen who I'm guessing is you." the woman said turning to him. Callen looked a bit suspicious but a look at Kensi's smiling face eased his worries.
"You guessed correct. And you are…"
"My name is…"she started.
"Yo!" a voice called, a nice change of the usual whistle that made them feel like dogs.
"Hi Eric." said Kensi as a blonde guy walked in wearing flip-flops, khaki cargo shorts, and a white t-shirt. She needed to take him shopping with her one of those days.
"Uh. Who's this?"
"I was getting there. My name is…"
"Kaitlyn B." Sam said interrupting her.
"Hello Sam. Nice to know you remember me." Kaitlyn said, with a smile on her face.
"How could I not," He said pulling her into a hug. "I missed you." He said quietly.
"Wait," Kensi said, "You know each other?"
"You could put it that way." Kaitlyn said turning around in Sam's arms, her green eyes sparkling. Kensi knew that look in her sister's eyes, there was more to this story that what it was being said. She could also tell that by the way Sam's arms didn't loosen their grip, in fact the seemed to tighten.
"We worked undercover for a year and a half." Sam said.
"You were in Black Ops Sam?" Callen asked his partner, bothered by the fact that there was still a big side of his life that he had no knowledge about but without showing it.
"Yeah, for about three years after I left the Seals."
"Good times. Don't you think Sammie boy?" Kaitlyn said with a smirk playing on her lips.
"I told you not to call me that!" laughed Sam taking a step back. Kaitlyn frowned slightly at the loss of contact. "But since you asked, those were some very good times." He whispered. His warm breath brushed her neck making her blush lightly. He sat down at his desk and started to type on his laptop with a knowing half-smile on his face.
"So why were you transferred?" Callen asked after watching the exchange between the two agents. He noticed by Kensi's expression that she had noticed it too so he knew that he had seen it correctly.
"I asked for her Mr. Callen." Hetty said as she walked into the bullpen.
"Hello Hetty." Kaitlyn politely said.
"How are you my dear?" Hetty asked in Latin.
"Better" replied Kaitlyn in the same language.
"Nightmares?"
"Sometimes."
"Have you told Sam about Ariella yet?"
"No."
"You should, after all it's his child." Hetty said before switching back to English.
"I can't. I just can't." Kaitlyn said looking Hetty in the eye. She seemed to be silently asking the smaller woman something. Hetty opened her mouth to speak, but before she could a shrill whistle echoed through the room.
"We will discuss this later." She said.
"I doubt it," mumbled Kaitlyn, as she brushed past her following the others upstairs without looking back.
