Sometimes You Just Can't Help It CH11
Going to work the next day felt a little strange for Callen, not only because he'd slept in and had to be woken by Nell ringing him, he was entirely sure how he felt about everyone knowing about him and Nell and he wasn't sure if they would say anything. When he walked into the bullpen it was empty, he dumped his bag and looked around and Hetty was standing right behind him, he jumped back
"Morning Mr Callen" Hetty said in her usual tone "you're needed at the boat shed our friendly secret service agent Natalie Giordano is waiting for you there as well as Sam and Nell, Deeks and Kensi are tracking a lead, of you go Mr Callen" Nell said waving her hand to shoo him away. When he arrived at the boat shed Sam was waiting for him out the front
"You can cut the tension with a knife in there, did you tell Nell about Giordano" Sam asked him before they walked in
"No, why should I nothing happened" Callen replied
"The woman was interested in you G, she openly flirted with you"
"Yeah well she was out of luck them just like she is now, I am a one woman man Sam" Callen replied before they stepped inside. Nell was sitting at the table typing away on her laptop, and Agent Giordano was sitting on the lounge
"Agent Callen so nice of you to join us" Agent Giordano said smiling sweetly at him, Callen caught Nell rolling her eyes he had to fight back the smirk that wanted to appear.
"Hello to you to Agent Giordano" Callen replied shaking her hand "have you met Nell our Intelligence Analyst"
"Yeah Sam introduced us" Agent Giordano replied. Callen caught movement out the corner of his eye he looked at Nell she was packing up
"I'm done I'll head back to Ops, call me if you need anything" Nell said only looking from Sam to Callen
"Thank you for your help Nell" Agent Giordano said to Nell, Nell looked at her, smiled and gave a brief nod of her head; the smile though didn't quite reach her eyes. As Nell left Callen saw that Nell hadn't picked up her phone so he picked it up and ran after her she was just getting to her car
"Nell I think you forgot this" Callen said pulling her too him and kissing her hard on the mouth "and you forgot your phone"
"Oh thank you, I was preoccupied"
"I noticed, did Eric tell you about her"
"He might of told me about her when she phone in this morning about a another one of her cases coinciding with another of ours, did she really flirt with you"
"Yeah she did but nothing happened, you know my rule I'm out if they have their own handcuffs"
"Not even one night stands"
"No never, especially seeing as though we might have to work together again, like now for instance, nothing happened between Agent Giordano and myself except a little bit of flirting, but we hadn't met then, it was the year before you joined us, but if it will make you feel any better, I promise to shut her down every time she tries to flirt with me, deal?"
"Okay" Nell replied a little embarrassed, Callen hugged her tightly
"Oh and thanks for not waking me up when you left"
"I had to leave earlier today, I honestly didn't think you would sleep in, you usually watch me get dressed" Nell angling her head up to kiss under his jaw
"Figured you caught me watching and on the other hand you did wear me out last night" Callen said before leaning down to capture her lips. They stood there by her car making out for what seemed like ages till they were brought back to their senses when someone's phone beeped; it was Nell's.
"Hetty is expecting me back soon I better go and you better go and get caught up on the case, don't forget your deal" Nell said to him he brushed his lips over hers again
"A deal is a deal, you better go so you're not getting into trouble" Callen said and stepped back so she could get into her car and leave. He wandered back into the boat shed, Sam and Agent Giordano had spread the case files out and spread across the table.
"You were gone a while" Agent Giordano said
Nell and I had some business to discuss, so catch me up here what's going on" Callen said paying more attention to files than Agent Giordano.
