A/N: Because I heard this first song at my uncle's wedding and it inspired me.
Nell & Eric's Wedding
She laughs as he takes her hand, twirling her in the middle of the dance floor. Pulling her in close, he rest their intertwined fingers on his chest as she lays her head on his shoulder. The warmth from his body, flowing through his arm and into her waist as the rest of the world fades away.
Her eyes focus on their hands and the way the lights reflect off their wedding bands. The love she feels for this man is nothing she can explain with words. Her mind traveling back to their friends saying their I dos, feeling her husband's eyes on her the entire time as she grabs his hand, intertwining their fingers. She's brought back when she hear's the soft loving whisper of his voice in her ear.
If you were falling, then I would catch you
You need a light, I'd find a match
'Cause I love the way you say good morning
And you take me the way I am
If you are chilly, here take my sweater
Your head is aching, I'll make it better
'Cause I love the way you call me baby
And you take me the way I am
I'd buy you Rogaine
When you start losing all your hair
She pulls back slightly, looking in his eyes with a smirk on her face and oh how he loves that smirk. He smiles, bringing his soft lips to hers as they share a sweet, passionate kiss. When they pull back, (not wanting to get carried away, because it happens real quick.) he press his forehead against hers.
Wrapping her arms around his neck, he wraps his around her waist and they continue to sway to the music. They stay in place, not needing to go anywhere but where they are right now. Their eyes lock. The love and passion they have for one another shining through.
'Cause I love you more than
I could ever promise
And you take me the way I am
You make me the way I am
You make me the way I am
He places a quick peck to her lips as the next song starts playing. A complete 180 from the last song. She starts walking back towards their table but Deeks has other plans.
Grabbing his wife's hand, he pulls her back to the dance floor with a beaming smile on his face.
She bursts out laughing when he starts shimmying and shaking his shoulders at her. But what really gets her is when he throws his hands in the air and starts waving them around.
But girls they wanna have fun
Oh girls just wanna have
Her laugh turns into giggles as she joins in on the fun with her idiot. They starts singing at the tops of their lungs, dancing around each other. They're care free - this Kensi and Deeks.
That's all they really want
Some fun
When the working day is done
Oh, girls they wanna have fun
Oh girls just wanna have fun
They intertwine their fingers, extending their arms as they push in and push out. Deeks twirls her, making her spin and when he catches the sight of one carefree Kensalina with her killer smile, his heart melts. As per ushe.
She abruptly stops when he grabs her hips, pulling her in close. A shiver running throughout her body when he brings his lips to her ear, whispering with that raspy voice of his. "Wanna go have some real fun?" He playfully nips at her ear, sending a clear message as to what he is thinking.
The soft moan that escapes her lips can only be heard by her husband. Grabbing his hand, she maneuvers them through the crowd on the dance floor, hastily trying to make it back to their room before she jumps him right in the hotel ballroom.
4 years later. Garcia & Callen's Wedding.
Her eyes scan the dance floor, searching for two very special people. When her eyes land on a mop of blonde hair and small brunette curls, she smiles. There, standing in the middle of the dance floor is her husband and their little girl, her head resting on his shoulder much like her mother's does when she's the one in his arms. Oh how she loves that man.
If every word I said
Could make you laugh
I'd talk forever
I ask the sky just what we had
It shone forever
If the song I sing to you
Could fill your heart with joy
I'd sing forever
When the lyrics of the song in the background hit her ears and the picture of 2 of her loves fill her eyes, she can't help but feel somewhat content. There's just one thing missing.
She feels a tug on her dress. "Mama."
Looking down, she smiles when her eyes meet those that belong to her little boy, who's stretching out his arms for her to pick him up. She picks him, placing a kiss to his cheek. "Hi, baby." His little smile sets her heart afloat. Just like his daddy.
"Mama, us dance."
She takes a few brief steps until they reach the dance floor. Rocking them side to side, swaying with the music, she cradles his head when he lays it on her shoulder.
They reach the other half of their family as a new song fills their ears. Her husband, daughter and son all within arms reach. Now she's content.
It's two kids flying down the hall in our bedroom
It's a breaking board on the front porch, you swear you're gonna fix it soon
It's the kitchen table where we say our prays, give a little thanks to the man upstairs
It's the feeling I get baby when I look at you
She and her love lock eyes the entire time. Hearing the meaning behind the words of the song and how close it hits home. It's her life in a song. This beautiful man and these gorgeous children are her world.
It ain't always pretty as a picture, yeah
And it ain't a mansion on a hill
It's perfectly imperfect
It's worth more than it's worth
It's our life, it's our heart, it's our home
This is our kingdom
Deeks opens up his free arm for her to burrow into. She wraps her arm around his waist and the twins intertwine their little fingers. He places a kiss to the top of his wife's head, breathing in the scent that started all of this. "Sunshine and Gunpowder."
She tilts her head up, meeting her lips with his as they both pour all the love and happiness into their kiss.
It's been late nights, a few good fights
Wouldn't sleep until we worked things out
It's been long days of leanin' on faith
Even when we had our doubts
Barely gettin' by, stretched to the limits
All the hard times, no, I wouldn't trade a minute
We've come so far, it made us who we are
Right here, right now
It ain't always pretty as a picture, yeah
And it ain't a mansion on a hill
It's perfectly imperfect
It's worth more than it's worth
It's our life, it's our heart, it's our home
And this is our kingdom
This is our, this is our, this is our kingdom
Oh, yeah, this is our kingdom
No, it ain't always pretty as a picture, yeah
And it ain't a mansion on a hill
It's perfectly imperfect
It's worth more than it's worth
It's our life, it's our heart, it's our home
This is our kingdom
Oh, yeah
This is our, this is our kingdom
This is our kingdom
They've been through a lot, both alone and together. But they wouldn't change a single thing, because it led to all of this - Their Kingdom.
