These are a series of chats between Kensi and Deeks during the time in season 5 when Kensi was in Afghanistan on the White Ghost mission. These text stories were after Hetty gave Kensi and Deeks their satellite phones for Christmas in 5x11.

Deeks: Happy New Year's.
Kensi: Hey partner. Happy New Year to you too.
Deeks: Did you kiss someone when the ball dropped?
Kensi: I'm in Kabul, Deeks. Not New York. And balls don't drop here. Bombs do.
Deeks: That doesn't comfort me at all.
Kensi: I'm kidding. It's relatively quiet. They grilled some burgers. Had some beers. Now I'm in my bed.
Deeks: *bald smiley emoji*
Kensi: You know there's a blonde smiley emoji now, right?
Deeks: I don't like the way he parts his hair.
Kensi: *laughing emoji *
Deeks: You know there's a brunette laughing emoji now, right?
Kensi: *takes a photo, pretends to laugh* You mean this?
Deeks: Yeah.
Deeks: You're so pretty.
Kensi: But...
Deeks: But?
Kensi: I feel a "but" coming.
Deeks: No buts. Just that. You are so beautiful, Kensi.
Kensi: Oh. Ok. Thanks, I guess.
Deeks: Happy New Year again. Eric just buzzed me. I'Il catch up later.
Kensi: Ok. Deeks? I want to say something.
Deeks: Ok?
Kensi: Can I ummm...
Deeks: What?
Kensi: Can I see you?
Deeks: See me?
Kensi: Take a picture.
Deeks: *poses for a selfie, pretends to squint under the sun, sends to Kensi* How about that?
Kensi: Perfect. Thank you. Happy New Year.

Kensi: Anybody there?
Kensi: Deeks?
Kensi: I'm sorry I know it's like 2am there now.
Deeks: Hey... Immup
Kensi: I'm sorry I'm just very lonely here.
Deeks: What's going on?
Kensi: That's the thing I don't know exactly what's happening, why I'm here, I just do as I'm told day to day.
Deeks: Have you told Granger?
Kensi: Yeah everyday. But he shrugs me off. Tells me to just follow orders. I'm so frustrated.
Deeks: I'm so sorry. You want me to talk to Hetty?
Kensi: I don't know if that will do any good. She doesn't tell me anything either.
Deeks: I can try. I will try. I'm frustrated too, being kept in the dark like this.
Kensi: Talk to Hetty?
Deeks: Yeah.
Kensi: Ok.
Kensi: Maybe she's more sympathetic than Granger.
Deeks: Most likely.
Kensi: I mean when I talk to her she gives me little updates.
Deeks: Like what updates.
Kensi: Like... after shop talk... or she gives me instructions... she'll say "Mr. Deeks wore that plaid red polo you love so much today. "
Deeks: LOL are you serious?
Kensi: Or she'd say "Mr. Deeks had a salmon and cream cheese bagel for lunch. He said he wanted a BLT bagel but he ordered salmon because it was your (Kensi's) favorite"
Deeks: That's bizarre. Hahaha.
Kensi: I don't know, I like it. I don't even have to ask. She just says it. Like "Mr. Deeks went out on the field with Nell today. He said he's not used to having a partner so tiny. That is all. Goodbye, Agent Blye."
Deeks: That's hilarious hahaha
Kensi: I miss Hetty. I miss everyone. I miss you.
Deeks: I miss you too.

Deeks: Good morning.
Kensi: Hey. What's up.
Deeks: I want to tell you something.
Kensi: Ok...
Deeks: I want you to know something.
Kensi: I'm listening, Deeks. What's going on.
Deeks: Ok. You ready?
Kensi: Ugh Deeks just say it.
Deeks: I can't sleep.
Kensi: Is it the torture memories again?
Deeks: No... it's not that.
Kensi: Why what is it? Are you sick?
Deeks: I want to tell you something so I can sleep.
Kensi: Then tell me.
Deeks: Kensi... I don't want you there.
Kensi: What are you talking about? I'm on a mission.
Deeks: I don't want you so far away. I hate it. I want you. Here.
Kensi: Oh.
Deeks: I don't mean anything by that. I know we've you know...
Kensi: I get it, I get it...
Deeks: It's eating me up inside everyday that just when you and I were starting to do this... thing... you're snatched away from me.
Kensi: I know, Deeks. I, umm... I hate it too.
Deeks: You do?
Kensi: I don't want to be here either, Deeks. If that's any consolation.
Deeks: And I wish I could do something. Get someone's attention. Just to get you out of there. Who knows what will happen tomorrow. You're in freaking Afghanistan.
Kensi: You know I can handle this. I'm trained for this. I'm going to be ok. I'm not a fragile little lady.
Deeks: Yeah you're a lady bird, future mother of ninja assassins.
Kensi: Deeks... I'll be home soon, ok? And we will pick up were we left off.
Deeks: You swear?
Kensi: Kensi Blye guarantee.
Deeks: That's amazing. Now I'm sleepy.
Kensi: Go to sleep. Talk in the morning.
Deeks: Good night.
Kensi: Good morning

Deeks: Interrogation room with Callen.
Kensi: I heard a joke. It's funny. I want to tell you.
Deeks: 5 mins.
Kensi: I wanna tell it now. Ready?
Deeks: Later.
Kensi: In Spiderman, the villain was Willem Dafoe, right? Im Aquaman, he was Willem Dafriend..Get it?
Kensi: Deeks?
Kensi: I thought it was funny.
Kensi: Deeks? Come on.
Kensi: LOLOLOL
Kensi: Hey Deeks!
Deeks: Damn you Kensi Blye. Callen just threw me out of the interrogation room cause I was laughing.
Kensi: LOL I told you it was funny.
Deeks: You are in so much trouble when you get back here.
Kensi: Is that right?
Deeks: Oh yeah, you're gonna pay for that.
Kensi: I look forward to it
Deeks: Do you, now?
Kensi: Will I be in as much trouble as I was the last time I was in your apartment?
Deeks: Yowza.
Kensi: So will I?
Deeks: Maybe twice that.
Kensi: Tease.
Deeks: So twice that of the thing we did... twice... so if my math serves me right, four times when you get back?
Kensi: Four times huh. I'm counting on it.
Deeks: Better do your lunges so you don't cramp up.
Kensi: And you, your squats, for the hips and thighs, and all the thrusting.
Kensi: LOL
Kensi: Deeks?
Deeks: I gotta go. I need a bucket of cold water and some ice over my head.
Kensi: LOL

Deeks: I'm home.
Deeks: I'm about to turn in. Early morning tomorrow, got called out to San Diego to help out Sam and Callen.
Deeks: I sat on your desk today and cleaned it up. As always. I just remembered the box you gave me. It was sitting up on the shelf where I put it. I still haven't opened it.
Deeks: Kensi?
Deeks: Anyway, I wanted to open the box, but I wanted to open it in front of you.
Deeks: Because you said that it is the thing I want most in the world.
Deeks: And you. You have to be there when I open it.
Deeks: I just wanted to tell you that.
Deeks: I just wanted you to know that.
Deeks: That I thought about you today.
Deeks: As in most days.
Deeks: Every day.
Deeks: Good night, Kensi.
Kensi: Good night, Deeks.
