What happens when Kensi uncover details of her past, while working a case. Will a person with a personal connection to her stir up feelings she hasn't dealt with. Will she be ready for the storm that blows her away, or will the storm be too much for her to handle.
A/N: Okay, this is my second NCIS: LA story, well my second story on Fanfiction in general. It was kinda an idea that popped in my head. I hope you like it. Oh, PLEASE REVIEW! Tell me what you think and tell me if you think I should keep going, okay? I'm really excited to hear what you think. Criticize me as harshly as you want. I can take it.

Chapter One
"Can you please tell me how that would work?" Deeks voice rang loud and clear throughout the bullpen.
"Deeks, I don't understand how this is so difficult for you to understand." Kensi snapped.
"So you're not going to be my wingman?" Deeks said as a faux look of confusion appeared on his face. "That what you're telling me right now, that you're not going to be my wingman tonight?"
"That's right. Not tonight, or any other night. Never again!" Kensi countered. If she was close enough, she would have punched Deeks in the arm for even suggesting it. Deeks was smart enough to keep his distance.
"Fern, don't be like that. I really need your help." Deeks said with that stupid grin on his face.
"You need her help with what?" Callen asked suddenly. Callen and Sam just decided to make an appearance after he finished his sentence.
"Don't tell me you leaving and you need her help packing, we'll miss you, really." Sam said not missing a beat. "So when you leaving, today or tomorrow? I can help you pack."
"Ha, thanks, but I think I might stay a little longer, I feel so welcome here, guys." Deeks replied, his tone dripping with sarcasm.
"So, what are you and Kensi fighting about this time?" Callen asked now sitting next to Kensi.
"Oh, Kensi just refused to be my wingman." Deeks said.
"I just thought since the last time didn't go over so well that you wouldn't want me as you wingman." Kensi stated as-matter-of-factly.
"What happen the last time?" Sam asked as his interest peaked.
"Deeks told me he needed a ride and he used me as bait..."
"I didn't use you as bait. I used you as a wingman. That's what partners do. I thought you'd be honored."
"Well, I wasn't," she said to Deeks and quickly turned her attention towards her other teammates. "I arrive at the park and he's having a yoga session with a bunch of girls."
"Kens, do you really have to tell that story?" Deeks asked looking embarrassed.
"Yes," all three agents answered in unison.
"Anyway, Deeks asked me to pretend like we're breaking up. I walk away and he calls after me 'Oh, come on, sunshine. Wait.' I yell back at him, 'Stay away from me, it's over, I can't do it anymore.'"
"Come on, Kens. They don't need to hear that story, what happened to trust?" he said as a lame excuse to stop Kensi from revealing any more.
Kensi ignored his pleas and continue telling the story. "He yells, 'Listen, I'm sorry. I know that it tough, when I'm on the road all the time touring, with the band.' Which was lame if you ask me. Then I scream back, 'I don't care about that, you cheated on me, with my brother'".
"Bet that spoiled your chances." Callen said between gasps of air during his laughing session.
"Yeah, laugh it up guys." He said, but then a thought occurred in his mind. "Kensi, why exactly do you not want to be my wingman?"
Kensi was done laughing by then, "Because, I just don't want to." She answered simply.
"Well, it sounds like you're scared." Deeks said.
Kensi blow out a puff of air, "Scared of what?" she asked.
"Scared, that this girl might be better than you. That she might be hotter, or maybe, maybe, you're jealous. Jealous, that I want to go on a date with her a not you."
"I am not jealous!" she yelled while turning a shade of red.
"That blush says differently." Deeks said with the stupid grin of his. The teammate all turn to see Kensi turning as red as an apple.
Suddenly an ear-busting sound came from the second floor. "We got a case." Eric yelled. Kensi mouthed 'Thank you' to him and he just nodded a silent 'You're welcome' and turn back into OPS. Callen followed then Sam and Deeks. Finally, Kensi edge her way in the background wanting to be unnoticed as she tried to silence her thought. What if he's right and I am jealous? No, I can't be jealous. Why would I be jealous, it's not like…
"Kens," Deeks said waving a hand in front of Kensi's face.
"Huh," She said finally noticing her partner.
"Were you listening?" Callen asked from across the room. Kensi looking at her surroundings noticed faces of concern on everyone including Hetty's. Wait, when did she get here? Was she there when I came in?
"Kensi?" Callen yelled.
"What?" Kensi yelled back.
"Are you okay?" Sam asked.
"I'm fine, why?" Kensi asked looking around to her teammates faces.
"'Cause you're not paying attention." Callen said.
"I'm fine, just kinda zoned out. I'm fine though. Please continue." She said trying to get the attention from her.
"Like I said," Eric continued, "This is Ex-Special Agent Kent Laggs, forty-one, from our very own New York Office of Special Projects." Eric gestured to the screen. There was a picture of a man with two children, next to that picture there was a picture of his driver's license. In the picture of Laggs and his children, Laggs has jet black hair and blue eyes. He was very dark compared to his children. His children had dark brown hair and were paler then he was. One child had brown eyes and one had dark blue eyes.
"He became an NCIS agent when he was twenty-nine. He resigned after his wife gave birth to his oldest son Joshua seven years ago. He contemplated on coming back but never did after his second child Jessie, she's five." Eric swiped the picture off the screen.
"He was shot here while on vacation with his wife and kids." Nell aid as she quickly typed a code or algorithm and more pictures appeared. There were eight pictures of the crime scene. One of a pool of blood on the bed, sheets ruffled, it looks slept in, on both sides; two picture of two bullet casing; one of a trail of blood leading out the room; one of a gun lying on the floor; and three pictures of a lot items knocked all over the floor, evidence of a struggle.
"The wife reported returning to the hotel room with their two children and then finding her husband on the bed with a gunshot wound to the abdomen. He was shot once. The wife was able to stop the bleeding. Joshua called for help, and an ambulance got to the hotel just in time he's now in surgery." Eric said.
"And his wife and kids was moved to a safe house until we can guarantee their safety. After Laggs comes out of surgery he will be put into protective custody and guarded at the hospital." Nell said and turned towards the group when Kensi asked a question.
"What do we know about the wife?"
"Um, yeah, thanks for reminding me. Well, Jessica Laggs, thirty-seven, also and Ex-Special Agent from the New York Office. She and her husband were partners. She, too, decided to resign while she was pregnant with their eldest. Twenty-six when she joined, she was with NCIS for three years before she became pregnant and resigned." Nell answered and then turned to place a picture on the screen, a picture of the wife. In the picture, Jessica Laggs had dark brown hair and hazel brown eyes. She looked a little like Kensi.
"Okay Kensi and Deeks, go and check out the hotel, me and Sam will go see the wife." Callen said before leaving OPS followed by the rest of the team.
