Author's note: Hey there, lovelies. So after more than a year of not publishing any of my multi-chap fics (either bc I never finished them or just because I got caught up with life) I can finally upload a new one. This one's special to me. It is in so many ways but the main reason is, that this is the first 'real' fanfic I've written about NCIS LA. About Densi. I have to say there has never been a character that could make me cry and then the next moment burst out into laughter like this one does. This fic is 'for' and mainly about Deeks. I won't say much because I don't like reading the author's note and already knowing what's about to happen in the next 15-20 chapters - so I won't tell you much.

I'll just tell you this: The fic is set 4 years from now, although it starts in the present. It is NOTHING Descent/Ascension related, though I might refer to things that have happened from season 2-4. This is a Densi fic, they're canon, which does not mean that everything is going to be funny or perfect. In fact (to those of you who have read my Castle fic 'Unforgotten') I like rollercoaster-fics :)

So have fun with it - I hope you'll enjoy it and hopefully you'll want to keep on reading.

With these words I will leave you now to the prologue called 'imbroglio'

love, milly

She smiled, gently caressing his cheek and pressing a soft kiss on his lips.

"I love you," he whispered, kissing her back, his one hand placed on her back the other tenderly holding her face.

"I love you."she assured him and smiled over the kiss.

It still felt like the first time. The shivers, the butterfly, the pounding heart in her chest threatening to burst. She felt him stumble a few steps back, then he was leaning against his car, his fiance leaning against him, her hair tickeling his nose, her lips softly playing with his.

''We should go,'' she whispered, stepping back an inch and glancing into his familiar, trustworthy eyes. ''We're gonna be late.'' she smiled and her smile got brighter as she saw him grin.

They were still in front of their house. They should have left an hour ago but instead they had been softly kissing each other and flirting like they were about to go on their first or second date.

He titled his head, gently putting a curl behind her ear, still grinning at her. A crooked smile – her favourite. ''Let's go,'' he answered, kissed her and let go of her only to turn around and open the car door.

The night had passed quickly but they had had a lovely time. Though they hadn't shared their little but precious secret with their friends.

He opened the car and got in looking at her as she did the same.

''We will have to tell them, you know?'' he grinned and started the car.

''I know.'' she whispered back, insecure whether she was ready to share the news or not.

Everyone was so suppportive. They had been engaged for one year now and no one had ever asked them when they would finally get married, when the big day would be. Honestly, they didn't know either. They had no rush nor did they feel the need to have a big ceremony and a even bigger party any time soon. They were living a good life. Their private life was quiet, yet adventerous whilst their working life tested them every day; it gave them oportunities to be themselves but not to be themselves and to strenghten their love, trust and respect for each other. No, they did not need to get married right away. Just a few months back they had bought a beautiful and comfortable little house next to the beach. Nothing special, but special enough for them to buy it.

''When do you want to tell them?'' he interrupted her thoughts and something in his voice forced her to look at him.

''I don't know yet.'' she replied simply, still looking at him as she turned his head back to face the road. It was late at night, maybe 1 or 2 A.M. and it was raining slightly. She turned away and looked out the window. Everyone had been so supportive over the last couple years. Watching them as them finally made it to the end of their dance and found to each other. Twp years. It felt like they had been together forever. And that she meant positively. But she was unsure as how they would react to this little wonder. What would they say?.

''Hey,'' she heard him softly say and turned back to him to meet his beautiful and soft eyes. He gave her that crooked smile she adored so much and reached to take her hand, gently caressing the back of it. ''Whenever you're ready. You're not doing this alone. We're in this together, alright? I love you, I hope you know that.''

Hell, of course she did. He would do the world for her and she knew that, not only because he had saved her life many times or even actually told her that he would do anything for her, but also because she loved him aswell and she knew she would do the world for him.

''I know,'' she said in a quiet, smiling back at him through the darkness. ''I love yo-''

She didn't get to finish her sentence. In that very moment a horn cut her off. Their heads both turned to the side from which the noise was coming only to see a massive truck drive towards them uncontrollably. She wanted to scream, wanted to tell him to evade from the truck's trail but her mouth was unable to form the words. Her veins pumped adrenaline with which she did not not what to do, paralysed by the angst of the picture already forming in her head. It was too late. They had reacted too late. Either that or the truck driver had seen them to late. But all that didn't matter. It was too late either way.

''If my world were to cave in tomorrow, I would look back on all the pleasures, excitements and worthwhilenesses I have been lucky enough to have had. Not the sadness, not my miscarriages or my father leaving home, but the joy of everything else. It will have been enough.''
- Audrey Hepburn

The next chapter has already been written and right now it's being beta read. I hoped you liked this little tease and hopefully you'll want to keep on reading. I'm probably going to upload one to two times a week (since school is a b*tch) - the next chap might be uploaded on friday or saturday (:
