AN: this chapter just sprung into me head. It revolves around something Callen said to Macy in 'Legend Part 1'

Callen: Just looking out for my family.

Macy: G, you don't have any family.

Callen: that's cold, Mace.

Macy: But true.

Callen: Gibbs is family. You too.

Thanks for the reviews.

Dear Diary,

I told G. About Macy.

He had to hear it from me, not from Hettie, not from Leon. But from me.

I wish I was in LA for him, but I really want to help catch Macy's killer.

With elbows on her desk and her head resting in her hands, Kelly's eyes were downcast. She knew she had to make the call but she really didn't want to. Looking up she found her father standing in front of her desk.

"You OK" he asked concerned.

"I need to let G know"

"Kell" Gibbs sighed "Let Leon do it"

Kelly shook her head "Macy was family to him. He needs to hear this from me" she replied quietly, as Gibbs nodded his understanding.

Kelly sat in a chair in the conference room, her father next to her. Her phone was on loud speaker.

Callen pulled his phone out of his back pocket, smiling as he looked at the caller ID. "Hey you" he answered with a smile. "I was just thinking about you"

"Really" said Kelly with a grin as Gibbs rolled his eyes.

"Yeah. Thinking how much I miss you and thinking about you naked in my bed with your hands cuffed to my head board and chocolate sauce on your body and what I'd do to you"

At hearing that Gibbs spat his coffee out as Kelly turned several shades of red.

"Callen" Gibbs growled.

"Jethro" Callen replied a little stunned.

"Err...you're on loudspeaker" Kelly hastily told him.

"A little warning" was Callen's only response, trying to recover from the fact that his girlfriend's father heard what he said about his little girl being naked.

"So what's wrong?" asked Callen a few minutes later, trying to disrupt the awaked silence that had fallen.

Kelly sighed "Macy's dead G" she said quietly.

"Lara Macy?" Callen questioned. Isn't she stationed overseas?"

"Flew in four days ago" Jethro told him.

"What happened?" asked Callen as he ran a hand through his hair.

"They cut her throat from behind, and then they burnt her"

"Have you caught who ever done this?"

"Workin on it" Gibbs replied.

"I'm sorry" Kelly said.

"Now I really wish you were here, fist Dom now Mace"

"Callen, if you need to talk I'm here" Kelly began "You know that Nate's there as well" she continued quickly, remembering the last time that Nate had tried to speak with Callen about a team member's death.

"Yeah I know" Callen sighed. "I love you"

"I love you too"

"Jethro"

"Yup"

"Catch the bastard"

"You have my word"
