THE PAST ALWAYS COMES BACK
It's been almost 4 months since the team had rescued Kensi from the desert, where she was captured under a car and left to die there from Deeks' father. He escaped the same day they found her and still there was no sign of him. It was like the earth opened and swallowed him. Eric couldn't find him anywhere. And if Eric can't find him, no one can. This man had lived for 16 years without anyone noticing that he was alive. He came back and destroyed his son's life and hurt him in the worst way.
For the last 4 months, Kensi and Deeks were living their life happily.
It's been less than two weeks that Deeks proposed her.
They were at a beach. He had made a very romantic atmosphere by putting candles in the sand making a big heart. He had put a good bottle of wine in a bucket with ice and had brought a small radio player. After he went to pick Kensi up from her place, he put a scarf in her face to cover her eyes. "You want to tell me what this is all about?" Kensi asked Deeks as he was driving to the beach. "Just be patient baby!" he told her and kept driving. She was still on leave so she wasn't that tired.
When they arrived at the beach, Deeks helped her get out of the car. She could smell the seawater, she could hear the waves crashing the seashore. That's when Deeks took the scarf off her beautiful eyes. "What are we doing here?" she asked him. The minute he took the scarf off, she saw the candles on the sand. He took her by the hand and walked with her to the candle aria. He pressed the play button on the player and the song started playing. It was her favorite, also played in her favorite movie; 'Titanic' and the song, My heart will go on performed by Celine Dion. She loved this song as much as she loved the movie, as much as she loved her father and as much as she loved Deeks.
Deeks took out of his jacket pocket a small blue box. He looked at it for a few seconds. "Kens, I love you more than anything else in this world and all I want to spend the rest of my life with you." Kensi looked confused. He knelt to his one knee in front of Kensi and opened the box. He looked her in the eyes and asked her "Kensi Marie Blye, will you marry me?" He almost cried. So did Kensi. "Yes! Yes! Yes!" she said. Deeks got up and put the ring in her finger. She fell in his arms. She couldn't believe it. Neither could he. He was scared she may not want to marry him because of what had happened with his father. But what Kensi had said was true. She cannot hate him. She loved him that much that she cannot hate him.
They were alone at the office. Their co-workers hadn't come yet. Kensi was sitting in Sam's desk next to Deeks. They were looking at the calendar for a day for their wedding. That's when the two partners walked in. They both knew it. Deeks had shared with them his fears about that decision. "Good morning." Callen said as he walked in. "Sam, I'm sorry…" Kensi said and she got up to go to her desk. "No, it's okay Kens. May I?" he asked her pointed in her chair meaning to sit there. "Sure." she said and sat down in Sam's chair. "What are you guys doing there?" Callen asked the happy couple sitting across. "We are looking for a day for our wedding." Deeks said "And I think I just found one. July 29th." Kensi looked at him "I can't possibly find a better one." He looked at Kensi and smiled. "I love you." she told him. On July 29th it's Kensi's birthday. Callen and Sam were looking at them. Callen didn't seem to enjoy it. On the contrary, that thing reminded Sam his relation with Michelle. They got married on her birthday. That had made her so happy. And Kensi now was happy to know that the man of her life loved her so, so much.
"Guys, I think it's time." Sam said to Kensi and Deeks.
"Time for what?" Callen asked understanding that he was missing something.
Kensi and Deeks got up and approached Callen's desk. "We were thinking about this for a while now and Sam said it's a good idea. Um, so to cut the long story short, we were wondering if you'd like to be our best man." Deeks said. Callen was looking at them. He couldn't believe it. He got up and said "Absolutely yes." Kensi smiled and hugged him.
That night, after a walk in the beach, Kensi and Deeks were on their way home. Deeks parked the car down the street and exited with Kensi. He had her in his arms. They both looked really happy. When they approached their door Deeks realized he had forgotten his phone in the car. "Oh, damn. I forgot my phone in the car. I will go get it. Take the keys and go in." Deeks said, gave the keys to Kensi and when to Kensi's car to take his phone.
Kensi turned her back and made her way to home. Deeks was about two houses away from Kensi when he heard her screaming. "KENSI!" he yelled and went to her. And what he saw was unbelieving. His father was back. And he had Kensi, once again. Deeks immediately took his gun out and pointed to Brandel. Brandel had a knife in Kensi's throat.
"Drop the knife! NOW!" he yelled again.
"I told you I was going to come back. What did you think Marty? Um? That you were going to live with her happily forever?" Brandel said.
"Drop the knife. Don't make me say it again!"
Kensi hit Brandel in the face with her elbow and he fell down. She immediately fell to Deeks arms. This was the only place she felt safe.
"Baby, are you okay?" Deeks asked her.
"Yes, I'm fine."
Brandel got up. He still had the knife in his hand. He run to Kensi ready to stab her but at the last second, Deeks pushed aside seeing Brandel coming her way "NO!" he yelled.
Callen was fallen asleep in his couch; finally, he got one. The TV was on and playing a movie. He woke up by an incoming call to his phone. Without seeing who was, he answered it. "Hello. Whoa, whoa slow down, slow down. What happened? WHAT?" He got up, get dressed and called his partner.
Sam had Michelle in his arms. They were both sleeping when Callen called him. He tried not to wake up Michelle. "G, do you know what time it is?" Sam told him. "Brandel is back!" Callen said over the phone. "How do you know? WHAT? When? Where are they now? Okay I'll meet you there." He hung up, get dressed and left as fast as he could.
