"Gibbs I'm going to need you drive a little a faster!" Yelled Sam
"I'm going as fast as I can, without getting pulled over Sam."
A couple of minutes later they arrived at Dr Vetrov's apartment and carried Callen inside.
"Dr Vetrov, Callen has been shot twice in the chest. We've done what we can, but he needs help."
"He's lost alot of blood. What is his blood type?" He needs a transfusion."
"He's type O." Said Gibbs.
Sam shot him a "How did you know that?" look
"I've done this one or twice before." Said Gibbs
"Is anyone here type O." Said Dr Vetrov with urgency.
"I am" said Sam
"Come over here." Said Dr Vetrov. "We don't have time to bag it, it will go straight into him."
Dr Vetrov hooked Sam up to Callen. He watched as he blood ran down the tube into Callen.
"It is time to remove the bullets and fix Callen. I am going to need a second pair of hand."
The seal team medic put his hand up "I'm a medic. I can help."
Dr Vetrov nodded and said "Put on pair of gloves and scrubs."
Over the next hour Dr Vetrov and the medic removed the bullets from Callen and dressed his wounds. They put oxygen on him. Sam was still attached to Callen. "Looks like I saved your life again G." Said Sam
"Gibbs, I told Hetty that I'd check in when things had changed. I know she's going to want an update on Callen, but I'm a little tied up at the moment" he chuckled as he lifted his arm that was still connected to Callen.
"I got it Sam." Said Gibbs with a smile
Gibbs dialled Hetty's number. Hetty answered the phone "Sam, what's the situation with Mr Callen."
"Hetty, its Gibbs. We are at Dr Vetrov's now. Sam's hooked up to Callen, he lost alot of blood he needed a blood transfusion. Sam volunteered his blood. The bullets have been removed and his wounds dressed. He's still unconscious and he's on oxygen. He just needs time for his body to heal and recover Hetty. He'll be okay."
"Thank you for the update Gibbs. Can you put Dr Vetrov on the phone please."
Gibbs yelled out. "Doc, phone call, Hetty."
"Anton, thank you for taking care of my agent."
"I now consider us even Henrietta."
Hetty hung up the phone.
Cut back to Los Angeles OSP
Mr Deeks, Ms Blye I have spoken to Agent Gibbs. Mr Callen lost a lot of blood (Kensi's chest tightened, she was preparing for the worst.) but he has been taken to a friend who was able to stablise Mr Callen. Mr Hanna offered his own blood. The bullets were removed. He is unconscious but Callen is in a safe place to heal and he should be home soon."
Kensi breathed a sigh of relief. Hetty smiled at Kensi. "Go home Mr Deeks, Ms Blye, it has been a long day and there is nothing more that you can do tonight."
2 weeks later
2 weeks later Callen was awake and had been mobile for the last couple of days and was ready to head back to LA.
Callen walked over to Gibbs. "Thank you Jethro, for everything." Said Callen as Gibbs pulled him into a hug. Callen winced a little. Gibbs smiled.
"Are you not coming back with us Gibbs?" Said Sam
"I've got some work to continue in Russia, so I'm staying."
"Stay low and keep your gun loaded." Said Sam
"Always do Sam. You take care of him Sam." Said Gibbs
"Always do Gibbs." Said Sam
"Hang on what do you mean always do." Said Callen
Sam chuckled and turned to walk to the van.
"Sam! Come on, what do you mean you're always taking care of me"
Sam and Callen headed to the van and headed to the airport to catch their flight home
15 hours later Callen and Sam arrived back in Los Angeles. They picked up their bags and headed outside the terminal where they saw 2 familiar faces in Kensi and Deeks waiting for them.
Kensi and Deeks walked over to Callen and Sam. Deeks knew that by her reaction after hearing Callen had been shot in OPS that day; he knew there was something going on between them.
Deeks spoke first. "I'm glad you're okay Callen, you too Sam, glad to have you guys back."
"It's good to be back Deeks." Said Callen
Kensi was standing back behind Deeks. "Sam let me help you with the luggage." Said Deeks.
Kensi moved forward and hugged Callen. "I'm so glad you're okay Callen. I was scared that you had died." Whispered Kensi. Callen tightened his grip around Kensi.
"Kens, when I was shot and bleeding out I thought of you. I knew I had to hang on for you. I knew I wanted to come home to you." Whispered Callen
Kensi; who was not the most emotional person; started to cry, tears started forming in her eyes. Bu she knew Deeks and Sam would be watching. She removed herself from him and they walked over to the car.
The 4 of them drove back to OPS. They arrived not long after. Callen walked back into OSP all eyes where on him. Hetty walked over to Callen and Sam.
"Thank you for bringing him home Mr Hanna."
"No problem Hetty. Couldn't be left here to supervise Deeks." Said Sam with a smile.
"Welcome back Mr Callen."
"Thank you Hetty, it's good to be back."
"Here is your cell phone, fully charged, ready to go, and your wallet. Now go home, get some rest."
"You don't need tell me twice."Said Callen
Callen went to pick up his bag as Kensi caught up to him. "Hey" she said
"Hey" he replied
"I know you probably want to go home and rest, but I was hoping we could talk."
"We can do that. How about you come around to mine in about an hour?"
"Sounds good. I'll see you soon."
"You need a lift home G?" Said Sam
"Yeah sure, that'd be good thanks Sam."
An hour later Kensi knocked on the door.
Callen opened the door and Kensi stepped inside. Kensi had a look he had never seen before, she was nervous, antsy.
"Kensi" Said Callen. "Are you okay?"
Kensi wanted to sit down but Callen had no furniture. "I was angry Callen. You left for a mission in Moscow, without even a phone call. I had to find out from Hetty. Do you know how I felt when I first find out you were kidnapped, then I find out you're shot, dead for all I know, then I have to wait for hours for a status update, not knowing if you're dead or alive! Don't get me wrong I am so glad you're alive. I'm glad you're here now. Damn it Callen you have no idea what I went through."
Callen walked over to her. He pulled her into him. "I'm sorry Kens. I had to turn over my cell to Hetty. I knew that anything I did from that point would put you in danger and I didn't want that. If I had anyway of getting in touch with you I would have I just couldn't I'm sorry. Can we just forget Russia ever happened and start over? Please?"
Kensi thought for a minute and wrapped her hands around Callen's neck and smiled. "Alright, but you've got some making up to do."
Callen smiled "That I can do." He said as he planted his lips on Kensi's.
