OPS Shenanigans

Homeward Bound

The Director leant back in her chair admiring the view out of her office window, she was just adjusting her skirt when there was a knock at the door.

"Come in" Nell called in her most sing-song voice knowing at this time of the morning the only one to disturb her was her assistant Monica. Over the past two years they had grown quite close and had seen many musicals together.

"Uh, Director" Monica said poking her head round the door, looking immensely serious. "Your husband is here to see you and he brought some other people"

The director smiled a smile that stretched a mile wide. This was her husbands idea of an early birthday present. "its okay Monica, send them in" she said reassuringly.

The door swung open, two little people came running towards her, she brought them into her arms. "Hunter, Bliss, this is a nice surprise but where is your father"

"Right behind them, Rockstar" Eric called bring a small onterage with him.

Nell turned to look at everything that she had left behind. She was so happy she wanted to cry.

"So how you liking DC Nell" Kensi asked smiling warmly.

"It's okay, but I miss LA and the politics are going to be the death of me"

"Well I always said that, Mrs Jones-Beale but did you listen" Hetty said from behind same.

"I guess your right" she said sighing lightly, she loved her job she really did but being away from the city and the people that she loved was tearing her heart apart. She put Hunter and Bliss down on the floor and they immediately ran to the toy chest in the corner of the room.

They all smiled, not warm comforting smiles but smiles as if they had a secret. "What?" Nell asked blankly.

"Well, it's better to show you, Happy Birthday, Nellster" Eric handed her a small and thin present.

"But my birthday isn't until next week"

"Just open it will ya" Deek's said speaking for the first time. Kensi elbowed him in the ribs. "oghf, what was that for". Kensi didn't reply just smirked at him.

Nell ripped off the packaging inside was an official NCIS Transfer letter.
It read " NCIS Director Nell Jones-Beale is to be transferred to the LA office effective immediately by order of Henrietta Lange, Secretary of the Navy" and sitting at the bottom was Hetty's signature, all that was needed was hers.

"You have got to be kidding me" Nell half yelled pulling Hetty into a bone crushing hug.

"Don't thank me, my dear. It was all Eric's doing, he was the one who put in the request" pulling away from Nell.

"To be honest we just couldn't stand watching him sulk around mission for another two years." Callen said matter of factly.

"Awwww, you are the best" Nell squealed wrapping her arms round Eric's neck and kissing him softly on the lips.

"Ewwwww" Hunter and Bliss said at the same time. Everyone just laughed, watching them crinkle their little noses as there parents kissed.
