THE FEARS, THE PROPOSAL,
THE PREPARATIONS AND THE BIG EVENT
To understand the story, you need to read first 'Murder in model' and its sequel 'The past always comes back'. They are kind of connected with this story. If you don't want to read them, it's okay. I'll try to connect them. Enjoy!
I don't own NCIS LA.
It was a beautiful morning and it was about to become better later that night. Deeks pulled out of a jewelry store, took a deep breath and got out of the car. When he entered the store, he noticed there were no customers. Just a nice young lady behind a desk.
"Can I help you sir?" she asked Deeks as she saw him looking around.
"Yes, um…, I'm looking for an engagement ring." he said.
"Of course. What size?" the young woman asked.
"Not very big and not very small."
"I see." she said and took out of a drawer a tray and placed it on the desk. "If you prefer, I recommend this one. It's not very heavy and not very big. Personally, I like it. And I believe she may like it too."
"Yeah, it looks nice and it's beautiful. I'll take it."
It was a not very small ring, with a diamond on it. It was the perfect one for Kensi.
Deeks was sitting in the desk looking at the little blue box he had in his hands when Callen and Sam walked in the bullpen.
"Good morning Deeks." Callen said.
"What is that?" Sam asked noticing the little box.
"Um… it's an engagement ring. I am planning to propose to Kensi tonight." Deeks answered to his co-worker.
"And why you seem so down?" Sam asked.
"I think I'm not ready for her reaction."
"What do you mean?" Callen asked.
"I'm not ready to hear from her the 'no'."
"Why you think she will say no? She loves you, you love her."
"It's not that Callen." he paused for a minute. "It's what happened with my father four months ago. She almost died because of me. I put her life in danger."
"I'm going to tell you something. Jack left her on a Christmas morning without telling her anything. And I'm sure she was more than angry. When she found him in Afghanistan, she risked her life to go and find him. You saved her life there and you saved her life four months ago. You really think she doesn't want to spend the rest of her life with you?" What Sam told him was true. Callen was looking at them.
"I guess you are right. You know she told in the hospital that she can't hate me. That she loves me so much that she can't hate me."
"And you are still wondering what her answered will be?" Sam said.
"When is she coming back?" Callen asked.
"Next week." Deeks responded.
"Good." the two agents said.
Some chapters might be small. Sorry for that. You like it so far? Enjoy the rest…
