Girls love Trucks
I gave Callen a big blue truck in Projects, so now all these truck stories keep coming to me. This will have some Nallen front and Center that doesn't fit in with Projects.
As he pulled into the parking lot beside Sam's Challenger Callen wondered why his partner was staring at him. Grabbing his bag he climbed out and turned to shut the door, the bright blue door. Crap, why hadn't he noticed that he got into the truck this morning; he hadn't meant to drive it to work.
"Good morning G, something wrong with the Jag this morning?" Sam walked over to stand by the fender. "Or were you feeling all macho kick ass today?"
"Shut up Sam, it's no big deal the truck was already in the driveway when I got ready to leave." He started to walk towards the building hoping no one else would notice what he had driven to work. "Let's get inside and see what is going on today, if Eric had any luck tracking down any information for us."
Still staring at the shiny blue truck Sam gave G a big smile "So when are you going to let me take Reba for a spin?"
"Oh, so now you want to drive my truck after all the grief you've given me. Give me one good reason why I should let you behind the wheel."
"If you don't I'll tell everyone about your new hobby." Sam tossed his bag under his desk. "Come on G, you know I'll take care of her, treat her right."
"So big guy who are you going to take care of? Has Callen here managed to find himself a lady friend that he needs help with?" Deeks had managed to sneak up on Sam "Talk to the Love Doctor Callen and let me solve all your problems."
Kensi sputtered coffee all over her desk "The Love Doctor? Really Deeks where do you come up with this kind of crap. Believe me if Callen needed help with a woman, which by the way he does not, you would be the last person he would come to."
"Thanks Kensi for the vote of confidence." He sent a smirk towards Sam and Deeks. "It's good to know someone around here recognizes the talents."
"I'll put aside the grievous wound to my ego to get to the bigger question, how would you know that Callen doesn't need help with a woman?" Deeks looked a little hurt "Is there something you want to tell us about Fern, have you and the senior agent in charge been indulging in a little workplace hanky panky?"
Callen sent a blazing look over to Deeks "Never let me hear you utter my name and the words hanky panky in the same sentence again Deeks."
"Uh sure Callen, no problem, I should probably get back to work." He swallowed nervously as he took his seat and grabbed some papers.
Callen then switched his glare over to Sam "And don't you start encouraging him Sam or you will be the one to pay the consequences."
"I must say I find your new truck quite lovely Mr. Callen, what prompted you to purchase such a beast?" Hetty had once again managed to appear behind him without making a sound. "The shade of blue is quite familiar."
He closed his eyes for a second to prepare for the onslaught before answering his boss. "Good morning Hetty, I needed something with a little more hauling capabilities than the Jag."
"Oh Mr. Callen one does not purchase such a lovely truck just to haul stuff in. Why it reminds me of one of those trucks at The Monster Truck Rally" She turned to face the others "Have you seen Mr. Callen's new truck Miss Blye?"
"No Hetty I don't believe I have, maybe I should go take a look now." With an evil laugh she stood up "Hey Nell, come on down and help me check out Callen's new truck."
"Callen bought a truck? I want to see it, why didn't you tell us you bought a truck?" The tiny redheaded analyst bounced down the stairs. "Let's go Kensi, did you get the keys?"
Kensi just held her hand out and he dropped the keys in it knowing it was a lost cause as he followed the two women out the door.
Deeks shot a look between Callen's retreating back and Sam's gleeful face. "So that's the women he needs help with. What's her name?"
"Her name is Reba and she is one sweet little piece of machinery Deeks. Let's join the rest of the group."
Both men walked out to see Kensi behind the wheel of the bright blue truck with Nell just standing in front with big eyes. She turned to Callen "I love trucks, cowboys drive trucks like that. Do you have a secret life as a cowboy G?"
Seeing that everyone else was busy checking out the truck Callen walked up behind her leaned down and whispered in her ear "Sorry, I was going to surprise you tonight. Do you like it? I was thinking that we could take a drive after work if you want."
A shiver ran down her spine as his warm breath tickled her neck. "I'll hold you to that G especially if you wear some tight jeans and cowboy boots."
"Have I stumbled upon a secret fantasy of yours Nell?" He smiled at the pink that colored her cheeks.
"Shut up G before someone else hears you, be at my place by 7" Nell walked towards Kensi stopping to wink at him on her way.
"Ok everyone, it's time to get back to work and leave Mr. Callen's truck alone." Hetty corralled her team and brought them back inside. "It does remind me of grand adventure in the Colorado Mountains many years ago at a Dude Ranch, with a charming gentleman shooting a western film."
