Sorry I didn't mention her birthday. If I did it would have been really short and stupid-so sorry and enjoy this chapter.
They're still not mine but it's my birthday so can I have them? No? I understand.
OoOoOoO
The Saturday of the fundraiser rolled around quicker than you would expect. The team had caught a case that only took a few days but still had them worried that they wouldn't finish it in time for the fundraiser. Luckily they had finished up with a day to spare. Nell and Kensi were talking earlier that day about what they were going to do with their hair and their makeup, while the guys were teasing Eric about actually wearing a suit with close-toed shoes. When Nell finished her conversation with Kensi she saved Eric's butt from all the harassment by grabbing his hand and pulling him up to ops.
"I am never going to hear the end of this. This could be worse than them finding out a dressed as an elf." He said solemnly.
"No, they'll get over it sooner or later, don't worry about it." Nell said, trying to be convincing and failing at it. She knew they were gonna tease him, he'd just have to tough it out, like she knows he can.
He sighed and said "I'll survive, it's just going to be a pain." He gave her his best puppy dog eyes, because they both knew she basically forced him into going with her.
She felt bad and decided to cheer him up. "Well I suppose I could make it worth your while..." She said inching closer to him and pressing her lips firmly onto his. They sat there, chairs as close as they could be, kissing like teenagers when Kensi walked in saying "so, Nell can I- WHOA." At this point they had jumped apart, knowing that they were supposed to stay professional at work. Kensi was just awkwardly standing there not really knowing whether to continue or not so Nell spoke up
"Yeah Kensi, what do you need?"
Kensi mumbled "to get my memory erased... I feel like I just watched my little brother and sister making out..." She said with a face that showed she felt weird about it. She continued and spoke up with "I was actually wondering if I could come pick up the shoes I plan to borrow at maybe 4 or 4:30 ish? Oh and we're getting let out at 3:30 so we have time to be ready for 6."
Nell replied easily with a "yeah, of course."
Kensi tried to make a joke as she walked out by saying "and no more making out behind the teachers back you two!" [change?]
Look new font whoa
Nell let out a small laugh after she was gone because of her attemp to make a joke and the fact they had just been caught making out. She looked over at Eric and said softly "oops.."
Eric said "yeah, you're right 'oops' that was really embarrassing!" He wasn't exactly mad but his ears were still bright red. That's not what Nell thought though, she actually thought he was mad at her.
"Eric, I'm really sorry I was just trying to make you happy I wasn't trying to put you into an awkward situation." He looked a little surprised she was apologizing and cut her off by saying
"Wait Nell, I'm not mad, especially not at you. It's not like you told Kensi to come up here or anything so I don't see why you think you should be apologizing!"
"Oh I thought you were actually mad at me! Ok this is a relief" she smiled a bit and so did he and she leaned over and kissed him on the cheek. They both smiled again and got back to work.
OoOoOoO
3:30 rolled around too fast for Eric's liking and they were back out into his car by 3:45. Their plan was to go to Eric's house get the suit and dress and head to Nell's house in her car because they knew Kensi was going to be coming over to get Nell's shoes at sometime near four o'clock.
They were in Nell's car by four, hoping Kensi wouldn't beat them to Nell's house. When they got there (thankfully) Kensi wasn't there and they headed inside. Nell went to go get the shoes she was lending to Kensi and bring them out to the living room. She set them down near the front door. While they waited for Kensi to come pick them up they decided to break out the Oreos and and wait on the couch. They were still sitting there chatting and eating Oreos when the doorbell rang. Nell said "oh there's Kensi. I got it." She popped the rest of the Oreo she was eating in her mouth then got up to answer the door.
When she opened the door Kensi walked in like she owned the place. She said hey to Eric and Nell, which they responded hey back to her in unison. Nell said "I already pulled out the shoes they're right over here and me and Eric were just eating Oreos if you want some." When she said this Eric pulled out an Oreo and offered it to her, seeing as she was resting on the arm of the couch opposite to him. Kensi took it and ate it in one bite. She swallowed it and replied
"No I have to go get my dress from the dry cleaners so I can't stick around, thanks though, maybe next time"
Nell replied "I get it, I had to pick mine up earlier this week. But we'll see you later anyway!"
Kensi went to pick up the shoes but before she actually went to get them she grabbed and Oreo and said "y'know just for the road." Nell and Eric both chuckled and Nell got up and grabbed the shoes for Kensi. She came back over to her and handed them to her as she headed for the door. She said a quick "bye" and Nell and Eric replied "see ya" in unison again.
After she was gone Nell said "i hope she didn't feel like I was rushing her... I wasn't really. Hey she said she was in a hurry, what am I worried about. I probably just made that easy for her."
Eric just kind of sat there with a look on his face that said "really" she just sighed and said
"Alright we have to start getting ready. You want to shower first?"
"Hmm. Nah you go first, and I'll clean up ou here" he replied
"You just want to eat the rest of the Oreos don't you?"
"Well... Maybe.."
She chuckled "well then just save one for me" she leaned over and kissed him before getting up and heading to the bathroom. He smiled, ate a few more Oreos then put the rest away. He knew this was going to be a good night if this kept up.
OoOoOoO
