People were asking me to write a similar fanfiction to one I wrote back then called "We'll Be Alright". Well, I guess I'm starting one!
Hope you guys enjoy it.
Kensi was coming from her mother's house, at late hours. The bond between the two grows stronger each day and Kensi even regrets being apart from her for so long. Still, that was water under the bridge and the important was that the two were getting along. Kensi drove through a shortcut, even though her mother's house was relatively close to hers. All of the sudden something ran in front of the car and she only hit the brakes because she noticed that it wasn't a "something" but a "someone" that suddenly disappeared from her sight.
Despite being somehow fearful that she could have ran over someone, or that she could be robbed or attacked, her Special Agent instincts kicked in and she stepped out of the car immediately. She could definitively defend herself from pretty much all kind of dangers. Thanks to the car headlights she found the form of a little boy sitting in the middle of the tar road. Both his T-shirt and shorts were soiled with dust, his black hair was messed up and sweat was running down his forehead down to his bright red cheeks. He looked breathless and his hazel eyes were widened, looking at her. He seemed scared and it was no wonder, he had nearly been run over.
"Oh my Goodness," Kensi ducked in front of the kid. "you're okay?"
The kid only nodded his head and swallowed, still staring at her. Gently she grabbed him by the arm and helped him stand on his feet as she was looking around. There was no houses, cars and even less people around.
"I should take you to the hospital, you may be hurt-"
"No, no!" He strongly denied walking back a few steps. "I don't like hospitals! I'm okay."
"Ok," Kensi again ducked, stretching her hand to the kid. "just come closer, please. I won't hurt you. Here," She pulled out her badge and showed him. "I'm a Federal Agent, my name is Kensi. What's yours?"
"Gary." The kid said walking in small steps towards her.
"Alright Gary, can you tell me how old are you?"
"Five and a half."
"Five and a half, uh? You're a big boy, but you shouldn't be out here at night. What are you doing here?"
"I just ran…" He confessed a little absent minded.
"Ran from what? From whom? Is someone trying to hurt you?"
"I just ran." He reinforced. "I think I'm lost."
Kensi sighed and grabbed the kid by the armpits, sitting him over the car's hood. "You were out on the street with your parents at these late hours?"
"My mom died when I was born and I don't know who my dad is."
Kensi sighed once again as the story gained even more weird contours. "Then, with whom do you live?"
"With my Aunt Rachel."
"And do you know how to head to her house again? I can take you there."
"I don't remember."
Kensi reached for her phone inside the car and dialed Deeks' number while explaining to the kid. "I'm calling my partner. He used to work at the Los Angeles Police and-"
"Is he gonna arrest me?"
"Why should he?" Kensi smiled sweetly so the kid wouldn't feel so afraid. "Did you do anything wrong?" The kid nodded his head and took a deep breath.
"We have a case so late? I just head to bed now!" Deeks grumbled on the other side of the line.
"It's not a case Deeks. I just need your help."
"What kind of help?" His tone of voice quickly changed, being cheeky. "Are we talking about some sort of favor involving you, me and-"
"I almost ran over a kid!" She said only hearing silence from the other side. "Deeks?"
"Yeah, I here. You're okay? And the kid?"
"We're both fine, but I'm away from the main road and there're no houses near-"
"Why are you away from the main road?"
"I-I took a shortcut."
"Did I tell you not to take shortcuts? What if instead of finding a kid you'd be mugged or kidnapped or-"
"Deeks, stop mothering me! I have a kid here right now who needs help! He lives with his Aunt but he doesn't know his way back home. Can you go with me to the LAPD?"
"I'll call some of my buddies. Let's see if they can help us out. I'll call you right back when I know anything."
"Okay, I wait back for your call."
As calling his old friends from the Police, Deeks was getting dressed. In the meantime of waiting for Deeks' call, Kensi tried to know more about the kid and little by little he loosen himself and wasn't shy anymore. She learnt about his full name, which is Gary David Miller and about his birthday too, on the September 9th. The only thing he could say about his mother was that her name was Andrea.
Soon Deeks called, saying. "Uh, bad news Kens. There're not many people doing the night shift and apparently those who are working may not be able to help us!"
"Are you kidding me?" She burst out annoyed.
"Kensi?" Gary tapped her arm.
"Deeks, wait a sec." She looked at the kid. "Something's wrong?"
"I'm hungry."
"You're hungry? What do you want to eat?"
"Can it be pizza?"
"Sure, I guess. Deeks, the kid's hungry. Can you meet me at pizzeria? The one downtown where we went once?"
"Sure, I'll be there in fifteen."
Before hanging up the call, Kensi muttered. "Thanks for what you're doing."
"We're partners, Kens. It's okay."
Kensi slipped the phone on the jeans' pocket and put the kid down on the ground. "Come on, let's go have a pizza then."
As you know reviews are very important, especially in the first chapter. Let me know what you think! :D
