THIS IS JUST A LITTLE ONE-SHOT I CAME UP WITH. I FEEL IT'S A TURNING POINT IN DEEKS' RELATIONSIHP WITH THE TEAM. LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK. ALSO, THIS IS MY FIRST ATTEMPT AT FIRST PERSON. ANY TIPS ARE GREATLY APPRECIATED. 3
As soon a I punched that guy, I knew it was a mistake. I was just so angry, so hurt, and I didn't know what else to do. I thought I was really in for it this time. I figured Hetty would send me back to my own personal Hell, LAPD. I thought I would no longer get to work with the best partner in the world, Kensi Blye. I heard the guy say something about everyone saw what I did, and he'd press charges. Then I heard Sam say, 'I didn't see anything.', followed by Kensi, then Callen. I realized then that they were my true family, all of us siblings, and Hetty the mother. The relief I felt run through me was almost as strong as when I finally got Kensi out of that laser maze, safe and sound. Next thing I knew, she was walking over, and asking if I was okay. I snapped at her, pushed her away, because telling her how I really felt would hurt us both. Just before I turned to stomp away, I saw the concern that had been in her eyes the whole case replaced by pain. The pain of me pushing her away. Even though I feel as though someone has stabbed me in the heart, and I feel as though I sprained my wrist, I have never felt better. It's funny what camaraderie can do.
