Did he have to say that? Did he have to say that she looked nice? She hadn't been trying, she hadn't wanted to, so why did he have to compliment her like that?! Callen was one of those girls who hated how complicated the minds of teenage girls were, yet she didn't notice that she was equally as complicated. She was just in this for the chance to see the vault. It wasn't because she secretly longed for Zach's company because she might or might not have developed feeling for him that was more than just friendly.

It wasn't because of that.

She flashed a smile back at him, and with a brow cocked, spoked. "You too, Zach. We're great at dressing for the occasion. Now..." She paused shortly as she forgot all about the rest of the world, the usual routines of day, and that there were a few hundred students right now in class, and not on their way to discover awesome secrets. That were Callen's own words, "Awesome secrets..."

She could hardly wait to tell Anna about all this, even though she had promised not to tell anyone. But it was Anna, and she probably knew about the vault anyway! How could she not. Callen had always figured that as Van Helsings, Anna and Zach would know all those different things. They just didn't talk about it that often. Which was odd, because Callen knew that she was the only person Anna didn't keep secrets from. Although one would have to pry the truth from Anna's lips every so often.

"Why don't you lead the way? I'll make sure to stay close." She said, not really asking him a question, but more hinting that she wasn't in the mood for dragging out time any longer.
