"You should be proud," said Callen to her. She turned to face him. "You saved so many lives today. I'm proud of you. You were stronger then I was," she looked down at her hands.
"Then why do I feel like this. He knows more about me then me," he walked to her, lifting her chin up. "I can't help it I feel different," he smiled.
"You aren't different; it is just something that is new about you. Trust me; I've been through it myself. If you want to talk I'm here," he stepped away. Moving towards the couch she then sat down beside him.
"I can't help it. I'm the daughter of a wealthy rich Russian billionaire. That really messes up a person.
I don't feel the same even though I am. I just don't know what to say," she leant back, resting her head against the back pillow. "What makes it worse is that my parents never told me. I mourned their deaths never knowing why they died and now that I do it," she didn't finish. Callen took one of her hands and held it tight.
"You know that I understand," he stopped talking as his phone rang. He looked at it to see Ops calling before putting it down on the table.
"You should answer it," he shook his head.
"If it is important then they can ring again," and he was right. The phone rang once more and this time he picked up. "Yes Eric?" he stood up. She sank further into the couch, closing her eyes. "Wait what?" she opened one eye and looked at him. "Okay, I'll bring her in," he hung up.
"What now?" he turned to face her.
"Director Vance just arrived and he wants you to see him. I don't know why but he said to hurry," she stood from the couch.
"I guess I should listen to the Director," they both moved out and to the car. As they drove along the road she stared out the window. "Why does he want to see me?" she said, her voice quiet.
"I don't know," he replied and grabbed one of her hands, holding it tight. "I don't know," he said once more.
"Callen, it is alright," she said, turning her hand in his. They continued to drive until they reached headquarters. Callen opened the door for her as she stepped out.
"Wait," he stopped her from stepping inside the building. "Promise me, you will not do anything rash or stupid without first telling me," she smiled.
"How can I when you have all the stupid?" he smiled and kissed her lightly on the forehead. "I'm ready," he nodded and together they stepped inside.
