They decided to get pizza with the rest of the team, and as soon as she got out of the car, Kensi attacked her with hugs.
"Hey, we missed you! This is Dani," Kensi said, gesturing to the small girl in the stroller next to her.
"Hi, sweetheart. Heard a lot about you," Fatima said softly. The girl giggled and swatted at the dangling toy. Deeks went up and gave Fatima a gentle hug, careful not to make Kensi or Rountree mad.
"Hey, how did it go?" Deeks asked softly.
"Kicked my ass. Can't wait to sleep in my own bed tonight," she said. Kensi smiled.
"Been there. Callen and Anna are here," Kensi said. They went over and got hugs, then congratulated the newly engaged pair. Anna happily showed off her ring to Fatima. Then Sam and Katherine showed up, even though Fatima had only met Katherine a few times.
"I'm hungry, can we go inside?" Fatima whined. Rountree put his arm around her and kissed her head. They went inside and ordered a few pizzas between the group.
"Hey, has anyone seen or heard from Hetty?" Fatima asked.
The rest of the team laughed.
"Have you been gone so long you forgot who Hetty was?" Callen asked. They chatted for a while and ate their pizza until Fatima was tired. Rountree gave her a ride home and hung out there.
