Deeks let out a small, disgusted grunt as he watched her flirt with a temporary agent who had been assigned at NCIS for a short two weeks. His chin rested on his hand as he pretended to read over his reports when really, he was watching Kensi laugh, giggle, smile, and even flipping her hair at least once. He nearly flipped his lid when he saw Agent Cortez lean over and whisper something in her ear.

Kensi put a hand to her mouth to try and stifle a loud laugh as the new agent whispered a joke in her ear. She wasn't one to flirt with someone unless undercover, but she was attracted to Agent Cortez, more than she had been attracted to anyone in a long time. Although, something in the air that morning felt off; she felt like she was being watched, but every time she glanced around the bullpen, she didn't notice anything.

"Something wrong?" Agent Cortez asked her.

"Uh, no." She shook her head, giving him a soft smile. "What were you saying?"

"Dinner? Tonight, perhaps?"

"Um, I'm not entirely sure." She answered, gathering the files from his hand. "Things like dates…I'm not so great at them. But um, I'll take a look at these and we can talk about it later."

"Great." He gave her a small nod before turning and walking away.

Kensi grinned while making her way back to her desk, only to be greeted by a very disgruntled looking Marty Deeks. "And what's wrong with you this morning?" She set the files down on her desk.

"Why, nothing, Ms. Kensi Blye." He retorted, leaning back in his chair as an attempt to sound casual.

"Why are you acting so weird?" Kensi pulled her hair back into a loose ponytail, one that made Deeks want to tug on it in his kindergarten style flirting.

"I'm not." He replied.

She narrowed her eyes at him as she set her hands on her hips; his replies were short and curt, he wasn't making any jokes. He was being very un-Deeks like and it made her uneasy. "No jokes this morning?"

"Nothing to joke about." He shrugged.

"Okay, I don't like this." She stated, walking around her desk and standing in front of him. "You're not being you. What's wrong?"

"Didn't I just say that nothing's wrong?"

"You said it, but I don't believe it."

"Well then, Kens, maybe you and Cortez should be partners this week and maybe you'll believe him when he says nothing's wrong." He finally stated, letting his jealousy become known.

Kensi bent towards him, resting her hands on both of his arm rests. "Are you…actually jealous?"

"No, I'm not jealous!" He denied. "It's just that we're supposed to be going undercover as a married couple and it doesn't seem to couple-y if you're off flirting with a new agent."

"Fine." She shrugged her shoulders innocently. "Maybe I will bring it up to Hetty, Callen, and Sam that I should have Agent Cortez as my partner for this op." She stood straight and began to walk away.

"No way!" Deeks launched himself out of his chair and grabbed onto her wrist, quickly pulling her to him.

"Deeks, are you out of your mind?!" She quietly hissed, quickly glancing around before shoving him away. "Do you know what people would say if they saw that?"

"Kensi, I was joking about Cortez." He ignored her. "We'll do the op, just…focus on what we need to get done before running off to Cortez again, all right?"

"Okay." She said simply, walking back to her desk and sitting in her chair as if nothing had happened.

Deeks rolled his eyes before following suit and sitting back at his own desk.

"He's not my type." Kensi said after about fifteen minutes of silence.

"What?" He asked, looking up at her.

"Cortez." She repeated. "He's cute and attractive, but…" She looked back at him. "I prefer the scruffy type."

Deeks was clearly taken aback as Kensi laughed and went back to working on her reports. It took a moment to register what she had meant, and when it finally clicked, he shook his head and grinned like a fool.

"Pay up." Sam said from afar, looking at Callen and holding out his hand.

"No way. That doesn't count as a confession." Callen protested.

"It counts for something." His partner argued.

"Gentlemen, please." Hetty suddenly appeared behind them. "Ms. Blye and Mr. Deeks…are clearly yet to confess to each other. They're still at the kindergarten flirting stage."

"Ha!" Callen said in triumph, pushing Sam's hand away.

You guys have to forgive. I know it's been awhile since I've updated any of my other storied and for that I apologize immensely. I've run out of ideas for them but I promise I'll try as hard as I can to get them back on track.

As for this one, well, it'll more than likely be a serious of one-shots since they're easier for me to do. And I'm still new to NCIS: Los Angeles, even though it's been on for four years, I've only recently started watching it and immediately fell in love with Kensi and Deeks. So enjoy (:
