A/N – Alright so I know I have two other story's going and probably don't have time for this plot bunny but its been bugging me so I decided to write it. It may be a while before I update this story unfortunately. Any ways I do not own NCIS L.A or any characters I may use from the C.B.S franchise I do however own my O.C's so please ask if you wish to use any.
"But Mother what about Madison," A fifteen year old Marty Deeks asked in a last stich effort to get his mother to change her mind. Marty Deeks had golden blond hair that fell almost to his shoulders in a wavy surfer fashion he had his fathers blue eyes only his where darker. He wore a white almost see threw button up dress shirt over a chill out tee. He wore a pair of kaki shorts and brown flip flop.
His efforts to change his mothers mind where honorable yet Sophia Odette Smith/ Deeks had made up her mind already. She looked in the rearview mirror and saw her nine month old daughter Madison cooing in the back seat holding tight to her baby blanket. She wore a small green flowery sun dress. The child's bright almost golden brown eyes sparkled in the rising sunlight and her brown hair being pulled into half pigtails.
"Madison will be better not to know me, this discussion is over." Sophia explained to her sun tucking his blond hair behind his ear. Of all of her three children Marty was the most like her despite his fathers blue eyes. Marty had her spirit and determination, he always had yet she knew she wasn't going where he needed to be and leaving him with his father and Madison was the best choice. She could hear her son murmuring something but didn't try to listen hard enough to make it out.
Soon they came up to a large house the grounds looking as if they had stepped into a story book. The house itself was three stories and was painted brown with dark red accents such as the door and window sill.
"Totally not shallow," Marty murmured getting out of the car with his large duffle bag in hand.
"Come on Marty make the best of the situation they live on the ocean you can surf every morning," Sophia said as she also got out of the car and proceeded to get Madison out.
"I did that anyways," Marty commented.
"Well now you wont have to sneak out at three am to do so." His mother said now standing next to him holding Sophia in her hands.
"MARTY!" Mathew said running out of the house and tackling the older boy. Mathew was the couple's second eldest son at age twelve. Mathew had his fathers' features with his short brown hair and light blue eyes. He wore a pair of Black Dress pants a Gray button down shirt and plum tie with loafers, a normal twelve year olds attire right. Not moments after Mathew came Mark the couples' nine year old son emerged he had his mothers blond hair that was shaved close to his head making it almost look brown and brown eyes wearing the same attire and he joined the dog pile. Soon after Nicolas Abraham Deeks steeped out on the front porch of the house in his business suit plum shirt and gray tie his shoes looking as if they just came out of the box.
"The prodigal son has returned," He bellowed and Marty looked up at his mother who mouthed the words 'be nice'.
"And he has brought the young princess," He said beckoning for Sophia to come to him and whistling along with it signaling the boys to come as well. Mark and Matt almost ran to their fathers side Marty however went to grab the bags.
"No need to do that Martin there are people for it." His father called Marty sighed and turned around a part of him wished to tell his father where he could put his people yet restrained himself. He only had to live three more years in this house and hopefully his mother would come to her senses and save him by that time.
"Alright father" Marty finally said threw his teeth as he turned around and walked up to the front porch he again had to hold in the urge to punch his father as he saw him look at Madison with distant eyes, he wondered if this man was capable of loving anything but money.
"Alright children say goodbye to your mother she has a long ride to the airport. But do not linger you have home work." Nathan said walking into the house.
"Bye mom," Both Mathew and Martin chimed at the same time neither showing any emotion is the delivery Marty however walked over to sit on the bench.
"Homework it's a Saturday mom." He said simply.
"Your father always said education was key, and your American history could always use some work you know you have to be good at American history to be come a cop right." She said hitting his forearm.
"I'm gunna miss you ma, and don't worry I will take care of Mady." He said.
"I only ask that and for you to be good for your father. I will send you a post card soon. Also here is my new number if you ever need anything sweet heart. I love you." She said and Marty did the whole teenage yeah yeah I get it stop the mushy mushy expression. With that Sophia got up and walked back to her car. She was almost down the road before she saw Marty chasing after her.
"Marty what is it." She asked.
"I never got the chance to tell you I love you two." He said wrapping his hands around her waist and giving her his first hug since he was nine years old.
"MARTIN!" The voice of his father called.
"You better get going, be good." She said.
"Always" Marty murmured as she drove off into the distance.
That was the last time Martin or now Marty Deeks he would ever see his mother his father had taken away the number and never let him or any of the other children read any of the post cards He knew she had sent. He only hoped he had made her proud of himself, after all not only is he a cop he is with a huge federal agency. It was something that he had always wanted because it is what his mom did. He remembered when she took him to his first bring your child to work day and he got to sit in the office with some woman who's name escapes him and draw pictures on huge pieces of paper. At one point he had the woman help outline himself so he could color himself like he had once in school. It was kind of an embarrassing memory but he was only four and a half.
He sat at his desk in this the latest night he has ever stayed at N.C.I.S he didn't have a case and knew no one else was in the office but he for some reason had not gotten the urge to more from his spot lounged in his office chair. He rubbed his temples and rested his hands behind his head before he got a call on his private cell. He silently chuckled as Hunny Bee by Blake Shelton ran out of his small speakers.
"Hola Hunny bunches of oats." He said with a light chuckle using the name he had called her since she was an infant.
"Hey guess what," Came the hushed voice of an overly ecstatic fourteen year old.
"Would the what I guess happen to have anything to do with the PERT exam you took today." He said unable to wipe the smile off his face now leaving the building.
"Yeah I got in, I take Collage Algebra, English 1, and English Composition. Are you proud of me big bro?" The girl on the other line beamed.
"More than you know, what Nathanael dad say about this?" Deeks asked as he got in his car.
"He is on his twelfth honeymoon you where invited to the wedding remember." The girl explained.
"Oh with the hooters girl,"
"No that was last summer this is the under graduate."
"You know I wonder if you will ever be able to have a stable relation ship with that influence." Deeks said starting the car.
"I know not to give a guy my heart unless they sneak out of their house at three am help me push the jeep out of the driveway so we can go to a beach twelve miles away even though I live on a beach. Also he has to pass the Martin inspection with flying colors." She said with a giggle.
"That's right Madi they better pass with flying colors because although you don't believe me no man will ever be worthy of your heart." He said with a smile.
"You have noted this many times before." She said.
"Because it's true," He explained.
"I know, I miss you Marty, Why can't you be a cop in Nags Head" He heard and she knew she was upset about a recent event.
"You know why sweetie I would suffocate there. Just keep reminding yourself four more years and you can escape." He said.
"If I last that long," She said solemnly.
"I did kiddo, just keep yourself busy and don't make any ties that can't be severed. Hey I am in traffic so let me call you back later Hunny Bunches." He said knowing that it was hypocritical for a cop to talk on his cellphone while driving, he also knew that the small town he lived in right outside of L.A had its black out night and he needed to be extra careful.
"Oh alright actually I am kind of tired and I have to go shopping for a new prom dress tomorrow don't worry I will send pictures once I find one." She said simply.
"Well I am proud of you Kiddo remembers that and that dress better be a halter top." He warned.
"Actually I was thinking long sleeved.
"Even better, sorry I have to go love you kid," He said.
"Fifteen years, you have known me fifteen years and I am your only full blood sister yet you call me kid like you met me an hour ago." She said disappointed.
"Fine goodbye super pooper," He said using her old nickname.
"Now that I think about it I like kid better, Night Marty oh and be careful the lights are out." She warned.
"Always," He said before hanging up. He smiled at the fact her voice was riled with fatigue and she her brown eyes would probably close as soon as she hit the pillow. He drove slowly and carefully threw the dark night until he got to his small condo. He threw his jacket on the table and made his way to his bed room knowing that night he would go to bed in a good mood for once in a very long time he wasn't worried about anything and got an exceedingly peaceful night sleep.
