Chapter 10

Nell woke up the next morning after hearing her phone vibrate. She got changed into her work clothes and carefully gave both Callen and their kids a small kiss. She headed to the car and left for work. She decided that she was going to need to stop for coffee. She did not have the best night of rest. She got to work around seven and waited for the rest of the team to come in. It was almost seven thirty when her phone went off and she had to step out of ops.

"hey." She greeted Callen. She knew that he would call her when he woke up and found that she was not at home.

"Hey where are you?" He asked her.

"At work." Nell revealed to her husband

"Well, I am on the way to work and I just dropped the kids off." He responded to her. They talked for a few minutes and the hanged up. Nell was just about to go downstairs to greet her husband when they found out there was a new case.

Few hours later

It had been a long day and Callen knew that they needed to go pick up the kids before Kensi invited them out for dinner. Kensi later invited the whole family to come out for dinner too. Callen went to go get the kids who were waiting for him to get there.

"Daddy!" Alyssa said happy to her father.

"Hey baby girl. How was your day?" He asked her as he picked her and Nick. "Guess what, we are going to go out for dinner."

"Awesome. Where is mommy?" Alysssa asked her father.

"She is waiting for us with the others." Callen told his daughter as he got them ready to go and headed to his car.

Callen got to the place with the kids in record time. Sam was just getting there with his wife and child. Alyssa saw Sam's daughter and got out of her seat to give her a small hug. They walked into the room and was greeted by all the team who were happy to see the kids. They spent a few hours with the team before heading home. Callen and Nell had some issues with getting Nick to listen and follow their directions.

"Nick, you need to listen. If you don't listen then I will put you in time out." Callen told his son as he bend down to his son's level.

"okay daddy." Nick said as he ran off to go play. Callen heard Alyssa start crying and ran out to where they are. Callen knew that Nick had something to do with it so he went to get his son.

"Time out buddy." He said as he sat his son down on the chair. Nick decided to get off the chair and ran somewhere to hide. About thirty seconds later, Callen went to go find his son hiding.

Callen and Nell had a meeting with Alyssa's teacher. Callen knew that their daughter was doing really well in school but he hoped that the teacher was not having to deal with the issues that they were having at home with Nick. The teacher had nothing but good things to say about Alyssa and that made them really happy. Callen and Nell were on the way home when Nell got a call from her mom asking her to come up this weekend for a visit. Both of Callen and Nell agreed to it.

They packed up the kids and headed to her parent's house. Callen finally pulled up to her parent's house and saw that their kids were sound asleep. Callen got out of the car and picked up Alyssa to take her inside and then came back out with Nick who starting to cry when Callen accidentally woke him up.

"buddy go back to sleep." Callen told his son as they walked into the house.

They spent the rest of the weekend with Nell's parents and then headed home. Callen and Nell got home around noon. They put the kids to bed for their naps. Callen and Nell finally got to sit down and have a little bit of time.

"So what did you think of my mom and dad moving down here to spend more time with the grandkids?" Nell asked her husband.

"I think that it is a great idea. I want the kids to have their grandparents around. I just wish that we knew about my dad." Callen said to her as he gave her a small kiss. He loved the relationship that he had with her parents but t was not the same like the one that he was denied. His mother was killed when he was a little boy and never wanted his kids to experience that at all. He just wish that his kids would have two sets of grandparents. The kids woke up about two hours later and they decided to head to the beach and enjoyed their time as a family.
