AND AFTER THE PROMO FOR NEXT WEEK, I'M SUPER EXCITED, AND HAD TO WRITE THIS. CAN YOU GUYS TELL ME IF I SHOULD CONTINUE IT OR LEAVE IT A ONE SHOT? I'M NOT REALLY SURE WHERE TO GO WITH THIS. THANKS, AND DON'T FORGET TO REVIEW J
DON'T OWN IT
"Deeks has been shot." Hetty said. Her words rang through the mission, echoing on each and every wall. Immediately, everyone's head snapped over to Kensi. They knew this was hard on her, he was her partner. It was especially hard because they had lost Dom less than a year before. She and Deeks had finally just started to trust each other.
"Is he ok?" Kensi asked, her voice surprisingly calm. Oh crap. Dom is still fresh enough for her to know how to put on that stupid calm exterior, Callen thought to himself. Sam wasn't quite sure of what to say. He was shocked. Suddenly, Kensi didn't feel good, as if she was going to puke any second. She felt as though she was suffocating in the Ops room, like the walls were closing in. Briskly, she walked out of the room. Sam or Callen made no move to follow her. Lately, Deeks had been the one to go talk to her.
"How?" Callen asked. Kensi could take care of herself. She'd be ok for a few minutes while they checked on Deeks' status
"He was at the store, and a man tried to rob it. He tried to stop it, but ended up getting shot." Hetty said.
"How bad?" Callen inquired more.
"He's in surgery. It's 50-50 as of now." Hetty said.
"I'll find Kensi, Sam get the car. Hetty, do whatever you want." Callen directed.
"I'll call Mr. Getz. I'm sure he'd like to be here." Hetty said. Sam sprinted to the car, and Callen took off on his search.
"Kensi!" He called out from the top of the stairs. He saw her sitting at her desk. He went flying down the stairs. He slowed down as he neared her desk. He took quiet steps over, and placed a hand on her shoulder. He could see unshed tears glistening in her eyes, but upon his touch, she quickly blinked them away.
"This can't be happening again." She said, her voice chillingly cold and devoid of emotion.
"Sam's getting the car." Callen said, hoping to snap her out of her trance-like state.
"How is he?" She asked, finally looking up at Callen.
"I think he'll be fine." Callen said, not wanting to tell her the odds. Though they were better than some gunshot wounds, he also knew that if the numbers Hetty had given him were correct, things could take a turn for the worst really fast.
"Callen, don't sugarcoat it! Just tell me!" Kensi yelled. Well that worked, he thought.
"Half and half." Callen admitted after a moment.
"Oh, god." Kensi said, putting her head on her desk.
"He'll be ok. It's Deeks we're talking about; when has he ever given up on anything?" Callen joked.
"I wasn't asking for you to say that." Kensi said, getting up.
"No, you weren't. But I know you wanted someone to say that. It's ok to say that you're not ok." Callen said, catching her arm has she headed for the Charger.
"What makes you think that I'm not ok?" She asked defensively, shaking his hand off.
"He was your partner." Callen shrugged, "And if he dies, that's 2 in a year."
"Let's go." She said, walking past him and to the car.
WHAT DID YOU THINK? I KNOW, KINDA SHORT, BUT I DON'T WANT TO WRITE TOO MUCH BEFORE THE EPISODE AIRS. THIS IS ALL BASED ON THE PROMO. DO YOU THINK KENSI'S CURSED OR SOMETHING? IT'S FUNNY, CAUSE DEEKS ASKED HER THAT ONCE. PLEASE REVIEW J
