Tequila Sunrise
By: CALLEN37
Quote. “Hetty plus mechanical bull plus tequila equals bar fight.” in NCIS:LA Season One Episode “Past Lives”.
Hetty watched as Sam, Mike and Eric unpacked a few more of the boxes that they had taken to the mission from the warehouse in their hasty move after Lara Macy’s departure.
A skeleton support staff were helping with the paperwork, Eric Beale was in his element setting up Ops, Kensi Blye and Dominic Vail were on a training course and that left Sam Hanna and Mike Renko helping Hetty organize the area in which her top team was to work.
She put up a few more pictures on the wall in the area she had decided to make her office in, it was snug and cozy and she would be able to keep an eye on her top team from there.
She smiled as she turned away from them to unpack a box with her favorite tea set and she placed it on the shelf in front of the partition that looked their way watching Renko and Sam try and decide how to have the desks set out.
“G’ll hate his desk facing that way!” Sam said as Mike moved it round, “He likes to be able to see all around him.” He said.
“Maybe, but he’s not here Sam, he isn’t going to be back for another two months so what does it matter.” He sighed collapsing into what would be Callen’s chair. He laughed, “I’ll bet he’s pleased that he doesn’t have to do this.”
Sam rolled his eyes at the man, had anyone but Renko said that he’d have gone for him, but Mike and Callen had been friends for years so he knew there was no malice.
“Probably, but right now he’s resting, and you know how hard it is to make him do that.” Sam pointed out.
Renko nodded and they both got back to their tasks and trying not to think how close they had come to losing a good friend.
