In Love With A Wonder Twin

Chapter 22

"No. Please don't. I don't want to have to go back to another hospital again until my surgery later this week. Please, Callen."

"Okay, okay. It's alright. No hospitals. I promise. Is there anything I can get you? Some water? Panadol?" Callen asked.

"Yeah, um, water and panadol would be nice, thank you. There are bottles of water in the fridge and the panadol is in my bathroom cupboard, right hand side. Help yourself to a beer or anything in the fridge or cupboard while you're at it." Nell spoke.

Callen nodded, "I'll be right back." He spoke, resting a hand on Nell's leg briefly, before standing up and going to the bathroom, getting the panadol and then walking to the fridge and pulling out a bottle of water and a bottle of beer and heading back to the lounge room, to sit next to Nell.

"Here you go, beautiful." He stated, opening the water bottle and handing it to her, along with one panadol tablet.

"Thank you." Nell replied, taking the tablet and then a sip of her water.

Callen smiled, "Are you hungry? I can order in or cook you something, if you want?"

Nell shook her head, "No. Thank you, though. But I'm not actually too hungry right now."

Callen nodded, "That's alright, we can just hang out here and maybe if you're feeling up to it later, we can go out for a romantic dinner by the marina."

Nell smirked, "Are you asking me out, G Callen?" She asked cheekily.

Callen chuckled nervously, "Maybe. Okay, yes, Nell Jones, I'm asking you out."

Nell smiled, "Mhm."

"So? Will you go out with me, Nell?"

"Okay. But people might look at us weirdly. I do have a huge bruise on my face, remember?"

"Oh yes, I remember. But let them look. I don't care. Do you?" Callen spoke.

Nell shook her head, "No. I guess not."

Callen smiled, "Okay then, so we have a deal?"

Nell nodded, "We have a deal." She confirmed.

"Great. Now, I do believe we have to seal the deal. Usually I would use a handshake, but I think in this case, a kiss wouldn't be completely out of order." Callen spoke

Nell smirked, "Well then? What are you waiting for? Come here." She stated, causing Callen to lean in and kiss her passionately.

Nell pulled away, "That was one hell of a deal sealing kiss, Callen."

Callen smiled, "Does that mean you want me to do it again?"

Nell shrugged, "I think we need another deal to seal first." She stated.

Callen laughed, "Okay. What do you have in mind?"

Nell smiled cheekily, putting the ice pack on her coffee table, before turning back to Callen.

"Maybe....you could stay here tonight?" Nell suggested.

Callen smiled, "I think we have a deal."

"Well, then? Let's seal it." Nell spoke, making Callen place both of his hands on either side of her face and kiss her passionately, once again.
