The team spent the day working on their current case, it got to 6.30pm when they all re-entered the mission
."I don't know about you guys, but I could use a drink" said Callen
"I could go for a beer and some food." Said Deeks
"Me too" Said Kensi
"Sam? You up for some food and a beer?"
"Sure why not. Someone has to keep you guys out of trouble." He said with a smile.
Eric and Nell came down the stairs.
"Hey! Wonder twins, we're all going out for a bite to eat and drink. Are you in?" Asked Deeks
"Sure, why not" Replies Nell
"Sure' chimed in Eric.
30 minutes later they had arrived at their local bar and had ordered their food and we're one drink in each when Callen looked at Kensi. "Who's up for another round?" They all nodded in agreement.
Callen got up to head to the bar, when Kensi got up to follow. "I'll help."
Kensi joined Callen at the bar as he ordered another round. "You want tell them don't you." She said
Callen turned to Kensi. "I know you freaked out when Sam found out about the two of us. I know you weren't ready for him to know, but Sam knows Deeks knows, Hetty knows. It's only fair that Eric and Nell are looped in and besides these guys are my family you know, we keep enough secrets as it is I really don't want to keep this one as well.
"Alright."
"Alright? Are you sure?"
"Yeah, it's time they knew." Said Kensi as she picked up the drinks and headed back to the table.
Callen followed and sat down next to her. He grabbed her hand under the table.
"Guys" Said Callen as they all looked towards Callen and Kensi. "Kensi and I have are dating, we're in a relationship."
"Congrats guys!" Said Eric.
Nell got up and walked around to Kensi and Callen and hugged them both. Congrats guys."
Sam and Deeks sat not saying anything, just smiling
"Why do I get the feeling that you and Deeks already knew." Said Nell
Sam didn't say anything, he just responded with a smile.
Suddenly Deeks rose his glass. "A toast to Kensi and Callen. Good luck Callen, you're gonna need it. She's a handful. Believe me I know!" He said with that cheeky smile that everyone knows and loves
"Deeks!" she said as she punched him in the arm.
"Ouch, okay that hurt." He said
Callen chuckled. "I've already been forewarned Deeks." He said as he looked at Kensi with a smile.
"Well alright." He said as he continued his toast. "As I was saying, congrats guys." He said with an almost forced smile as he rose his glass and motioned for everyone to do the same. They all clinked their glasses and wished them congrats.
"Who's up for another round?" "This rounds on me?" Said Nell
Everyone started talking all at once. "Sure, yeah, sounds good." Were all coming from different directions all at once.
"Alright, I'll be back in sec. Hey Kens, can you come and give me a hand with the drinks."
"Sure" she said and she got up and followed Nell to the bar.
