A/N: Happy summer everybody! Summer is my favorite so I just had to send our favorite couple on another vacation this year. Hopefully this one goes a little better for them! (Spoiler alert: It probably won't...)
"Aloha! Welcome to the Wailea Beach Resort!" A cheerful employee greeted Kensi and Deeks as they stepped out of the hotel shuttle.
Kensi accepted the lei that was placed around her neck, taking in the high ceilings of the lobby, the windows on the far side through which you could see the pool and beyond that the ocean. The air smelled of flowers and coconut. She turned back to Deeks and smiled. "We made it."
He adjusted his backpack. "We certainly did."
After last year's vacation disaster they'd almost decided not to make another attempt. But after some prolonged research on destinations and a fair amount of begging on Kensi's part, they'd decided that a trip to familiar turf would eliminate some of the potential disasters. So Hawaii it was and after a brief, incident free flight, they'd made their way to the resort with relative ease.
Another employee walked over to where they waited in line, a tray of drinks in her hand. "Rum punch?" she asked.
"If we just keep 'em coming we'll be too plastered to deal with any illegal activity," Deeks said as he took one for each of them.
Kensi took a sip and felt her shoulders begin to unwind. "Promise me, no undercover agents, no basement shootouts this year."
"No head trauma," he cautioned.
"No illegal weapons."
"No motorcycle chases through the city."
Kensi thought for a second. "Actually that was pretty fun."
"Next!" called the desk clerk.
"Hi, the reservation is under Blye," Kensi said as they stepped up to the counter.
"All right." The woman clicked her mouse several times and smiled. "Congratulations. It turns out you're eligible for a free upgrade with a Jacuzzi and an ocean view."
"See?" Kensi said to her partner. "Already better than last year."
"Definitely," he agreed.
"Here are your key cards. You're in room 412," the clerk said brightly. "Pool hours are from 8:00am-10:00pm and breakfast is from 6:00am-10:00am. Enjoy!"
It took a bit of shuffling to get their luggage upstairs since Kensi "Always-Be-Prepared" Blye had brought an extra suitcase along "just in case" but at last Deeks tipped the bellhop and closed the door, locking it tightly behind him.
"Babe, come look at the Jacuzzi!" Kensi called from the bathroom.
He met her in the doorway and immediately cradled her face, pressing his lips to hers. She smiled. "What was that for?"
"I'm just really happy we're here."
"Me too. You ready to go explore the hotel?"
"I had a different kind of exploring in mind."
He moved his lips to her neck and she jumped up, wrapping her legs around his waist as he moved them to the King sized bed.
They were extremely involved in that exploration when the lock on the door clicked.
"Oh my god!" Kensi gasped.
Deeks rolled onto his back and looked toward the door. "What the hell?"
The door slammed open, catching hard against the security door guard.
"I think somebody's trying to get in," Kensi said.
"You think?" Deeks asked incredulously.
"Hello?" a voice called through the crack. "Is somebody in there?"
Deeks swore as Kensi wrapped the sheets around her body. He grabbed one side and pulled but she pulled back harder. "Why do you get the sheets?" he hissed.
"Because I'm the girl! Put some pants on and do something!" she hissed back.
Deeks located his discarded boxers and made his way to the door as Kensi searched in vain for her shirt. "Are you presentable?" he asked.
"Not really!"
"Hello?!" the voice yelled again.
Deeks undid the deadbolt and pulled the door open a crack. "Hi, can I help you?" he asked.
A young couple, close to their own age, stood on the other side of the door. "Um…this is our room," the man said.
Deeks squinted at him. "This is room 412."
"Yes, which is our room," the woman said.
"Well we just checked in and were given the keys to this room so…" Deeks looked at them meaningfully and began to close the door.
"Our suitcases are already in here," the man insisted. "We checked in a couple hours ago."
"We didn't see any suitcases," Deeks said in confusion. What was wrong with these people?
"Don't let them in! I can't find my pants!" Kensi whispered desperately.
"If you let us in we can show you," the woman said.
Deeks turned around. "You'd better do something fast because they're coming in."
Kensi squeaked and hustled to the closet, pulling on the bathrobe she found there. Then she looked down. "Oh crap."
"What?" Deeks asked.
Kensi pulled out a suitcase. "I think this is their room."
Deeks opened the door fully and let them enter. "God, I am so sorry. I don't know what happened," he said.
"I'm just glad we're not crazy," the woman said. "For a moment I wasn't sure."
"Well obviously the desk made a mistake," Kensi said, flustered.
"Why don't we um, head down and fix that while you…" the man let his sentence hang and Kensi pulled the robe tighter around her body.
They met down in the lobby moments later with far more clothes on. The other couple was already talking with the desk clerk who looked shocked. "I'm so sorry," she was saying as Kensi and Deeks approached. "I don't know how this could have happened."
"Well it did," Deeks said. "So we're going to need to fix it because, quite frankly, we're not looking for roommates right now."
A manager was called over as the two couples stood awkwardly by the counter trying not to make eye contact. The manager clicked a few keys as well and then grimaced. "So we seem to have to had a computer glitch that allowed both of you to check into the same room."
"How is that possible?" Kensi asked.
"Well your reservation," she pointed to the other couple, "is under Katrina Bligh, and yours is under Kensi Blye." She spelled the last names. "The computer only shows them as your last name and first initial. I'm not sure why it allowed you the room to be checked into twice. I'm so sorry, we will fix this immediately and of course comp both of you a night of your stay. Miss Blye," she pointed to Kensi, "we can get you a different room on the same floor."
"That's fine," Kensi said.
They received their new keycards and then both couples took to the elevator.
"So," Katrina finally said, "I'm Katrina. This is Sebastian."
"Kensi," Kensi introduced herself. "And Deeks."
"We're uh, really sorry that we—" Sebastian couldn't seem to find the rest of the words he wanted.
Deeks shook his head. "No worries. Not your fault."
The doors slid open and they exited together. "Well it was nice to meet you," Katrina told them when they had reached room 412.
"Same here," Kensi said.
"What's our new room number?" Deeks asked as they walked past their old room.
Kensi glanced at the card packet. "Oh come on."
She handed it to Deeks. In bold numbering it said 414. "Lovely. We're neighbors. That's not going to make things awkward at all."
They shuffled their luggage into the new room, which looked exactly the same as the old one. "So," Deeks said when they'd finally made it inside, "feel like picking up where we left off?"
"Not really."
"Yeah I figured that was too much to hope for. Explore the hotel fully clothed instead?"
She smiled. "What could go wrong with that?"
A/N: Fun fact, the accidental double check-in was inspired by something that happened to my cousin and her husband on their honeymoon. It was too good not to include! Updates soon, I promise! Leave your love in the reviews!
