Reasons why I love You
The way you stand by my side
It's something that amazes her in a way nothings has ever done before. He doesn't care how stupid her decision might look or how potentially dangerous her plan might be he stands by her side without a second thought. She knows this is because of his hero-syndrome but she still appreciates it. After all, it's always nice to have someone by your side when you need it the most.
The times you make sure nothing will harm me
Kensi has long given up trying to count just how many times he has protected her. Deeks knows she's more than capable of protecting herself and that she doesn't necessarily needs someone to defend her every single time she is facing a dangerous situation. However, he always stands between her and the guy with the gun. He always stands between her and the bad guy. She doesn't know if he does it on purpose or not but she will never admit how nice it feels to know he would do anything to keep her safe. Boy, she will never forget the broken look on his face when he went to visit her at the hospital after a job gone wrong. She had just a few cuts and bruises but it was good to see how worried he was with her.
How you always find a new way to surprise me
Kensi doesn't consider herself to be the kind of person who is easily surprised but her partner takes an insane amount of pleasure in trying to surprise her. It's something she considers endearing, actually. It's quite simple…no one has ever bothered as much as he does with that. Sometimes he shows up at work a little bit late because he stopped at her favorite donut shop to buy her a box full of her favorite ones. Sometimes, he brings her coffee so she won't have to drink it from the machine they have at work. Those are the small things that manage to show her just how much he really care, even if he doesn't actually say the words out loud.
When I'm sad, you take the pain away with a joke
She's not the kind of person who is easily depressed but there are days in which sadness haunts her for reasons she can't bring herself to think about. Callen knows how to deal with her mood but he doesn't know exactly what to do when he sees her walking in with a sad expression on her face. Sam is at a total loss of what to do too and he actually avoids talking to her during those days. She knows why that happens. They're not used to deal with her sad self. They see her as a strong woman, even as one of the guys. Deeks is the only one who dares to do something to try to improve her mood. He cracks a joke and that does it for her. Because, even though he says jokes every single day, he knows exactly what to say to make her smile and always uses his best jokes to take away her sadness.
How you always look deep into my eyes
Kensi has never felt like this before. Sure, she's used to feel close to some people she works with but there's something about Deeks that actually scares her. The way he looks so deep into her eyes is something she can't get over. It feels like he's reading her, trying to decipher her thoughts and emotions. She feels almost naked when he looks at her like that but it's a good feeling, one she likes. It feels extra-especial when he does it right after a long day. They don't share a word but she knows he's trying to see if she's really as okay as she says or if it is just a cover for what she's really feeling.
How you can make my heart melt with your soft lips
It never fails to amaze her how he is capable of improving her day with such a small thing. The way he kisses her always takes her breath away. He knows just how to do it. He kisses her softly when he sees that's what she needs and kisses her with passion when they both need it. But her favorite kisses are the ones in which he pours all of his heart to her in one simple soft kiss. Those are the ones that make her see just how much Deeks cares about her. Those are the ones who make her heart melt.
The way you hold my hand so tight
She doesn't get scared often. It's just not who she is and everyone knows it. However, there are things that are scary to her. For example, when one of her father's old friends shows up and tells her the truth about his death it scares her. Deeks doesn't leave her side and holds onto her hand so tightly that any other person would consider it uncomfortable. She doesn't. It's his way to comfort her and to give her that sense of safety she needs so desperately and she loves him for it.
How you always know what to say when I get mad at you
Deeks is the kind of guy who can talk his way out of pretty bad situations. However, Kensi's the type of girl who is hard to handle and words are not that useful when she's mad at someone. In fact, the most useful thing to use when she's mad at you is a bullet-proof vest. Deeks knows her better than that, though. He can talk his way out of her anger at all times. It scares her sometimes but she doesn't let that stop her. It's good to know that there's someone who knows you so well that knows exactly what to say when you're mad at him. It shows her just how well he knows her. That's not scary, at all.
The way you play with my hair when I'm falling asleep
She's a strong and independent woman. She fights bad guys on a daily-basis. She has been shot before. She has shot someone before. She has killed people. Kensi Blye is one tough girl and everyone knows that. It doesn't take much to figure that out, anyway. It's not something she hides. However, she has a soft side too that only a few people are allowed to see. She loves falling asleep with her head on Deeks chest. It's not just because his heartbeat lulls her to sleep. It's the way he plays with her hair until he falls asleep or until he's sure that she's fast asleep. It comforts her and makes her forget the hard day.
The way you stare at me as if I am the most gorgeous girl in the world
Deeks is the kind of guy who expresses his emotions through his eyes and facial expressions. That allows her to read him even better than what she reads everyone else. And that's saying a lot considering the facet she's the best when it comes to reading people. The way he looks at her makes her feel a lot of different things. It makes her feel like the most beautiful girl on the planet. It makes her feel like there's no one else in the room besides the two of them. It makes her feel loved and cared for. She loves the way he stares at her.
The smile you give after I'm done kissing you
Deeks smiles a lot. In fact, it's hard to catch him without a smile on his face. However, he has different kinds of smiles. There's the smile he shows everyone when he says a joke that only he thinks it's funny. There's the smile he shares with everyone else when something really is funny. There's the smile he cracks when he's thinking about something he has done. There's the smile he gives her when they are sitting on the couch together just relaxing and watching TV. And then there's her favorite smile. The smile he gives her when she kisses him and pulls back it's one of a kind. It makes her feel like the most important person in the world. It makes her feel like he will never want to let her go. It always makes her heart skip a beat.
The way you touch me as if I might break
Kensi is tough. She's been hurt too many times, though. Deeks promises her that he will never hurt her, no matter what. He keeps his promise and takes it to the limit. When he touches her, he does it with so much care she wonders if he's afraid to break her. Sometimes he touches her so softly that she wants to cry from the emotions present in that one simple gesture.
How you hardly ever get mad at me
It doesn't matter what she does. He doesn't get mad at her. The only occasion in which she sees him fuming and yelling at her is when she gets herself in unnecessary danger. She knows it pisses him off whenever she does something that has the potential to hurt her badly. So he gets mad at her. It doesn't last long, though. All she needs to do is hug him and assure him that she's okay before giving him a peck on the lips. That's all it takes to make him stop being mad at her.
The way you look after I say I love you
Kensi has commitment issues. That's not really a secret. It took her months to be able to say those three magic words to him. That's probably the reason why he smiles so widely whenever she tells him she loves him. He looks like a little kid on Christmas morning, playing his favorite video game brought by Santa, whenever she tells him that, even though she tells it quite often now.
The way you're not embarrassed to call me sweet things in front of anyone
The first times he does something like that it's by accident but it quickly becomes a normal thing. They go out with Callen and Sam and he calls her 'baby'. They are filling reports at work and he calls her 'honey'. They are sitting on the couch of the office with nothing to do and he calls her 'sweetie'. It's finally time to go home after a long day of work and he calls her 'princess'. He's not embarrassed to say things like that and Kensi gets used to it with time. After just a few weeks, Callen and Sam stop looking at him like as if he were crazy. They start looking at him with a smile because they know he's taking good care of the girl they see as a little sister.
How you're not afraid to tell me your feelings
He's not afraid to tell her how he feels, time and time again. Deeks is the kind of guy who doesn't leave thing left unsaid. Whatever he's feeling, he says it. Even before she could say those words, he told her he loved her many times, aware that she wasn't ready to say them back. He didn't mind. He loved her and wasn't afraid to let her know that. He's the kind of guy who loves her with all his heart. He's the kind of guy she is more than capable of loving with all her heart, every single day for the rest of their lives.

This has been on my computer for a while now. It seems like a good time to post it.
Review if you want to read Deeks side of the list too. It might take me a few days but I'll post it in case you want to read it.
