It started like any typical day, Deeks being the last one to get into OSP, with a handful of donuts for Kensi and an unopened bag of candy bars. He had a "secret" stash of them in his desk, which he only kept restocking because Kensi loves them. He handed Kensi the box of donuts then headed to his desk. He placed the bag of candy neatly under some files. As he picked up the files he noticed there was one in there that he had forgotten about. Hetty gave it to him a week ago and he told her that he would think about it. After staring at the file for what seemed like forever, he stuck into his bag and decided that he would fill it out when he got the chance. As he was zipping up his bag, Eric came half-way down the stairs and motioned for them to come up to OPS. And from the look on his face, the team could tell this case was going to be bad. The team headed up to OPS with Hetty following close behind. And as they reached the top of the stairs, Hetty grabbed Kensi's arm and pulled her aside.
"Ms. Blye, can I have a word?"
"Umm, yah, sure. What's up?"
"Before you go in there I just want to let you know that we can substitute Callen for Deeks if you feel more comfortable." Hetty said.
"What do you mean? Is Deeks in trouble?"
"No. But there is a situation to where we need to put two agents undercover. They will go undercover as a married couple. And going under deep cover as a married couple, lines can get crossed and things can change. If you are not comfortable going under with Mr. Deeks then I can arrange Mr. Callen to go with you."
"Umm, I don't think that Deeks will be a problem, this is what he is good at. I will be fine." Kensi said as Hetty led her back to OPS.
Inside, Eric and Nell had been briefing the rest of the team on what was going on. When Kensi walked in she immediately took her place behind the electronic island next to Deeks. But this time she stood just a little closer. Their elbows rubbed up against each other and she could tell that there was a smile on Deeks face. The smile sent waves of heat to the pit of her stomach and it made the walls around her slowly melt away. All of the walls she had set up after Jack left, well they were slowly being taken down by a shaggy haired surfer cop. When Eric and Nell finished and released Kensi and Deeks to wardrobe to find their undercover styles, Nell whispered something in Kensi's ear and it made Kensi smile.
With that, Kensi strolled out behind Deeks and headed for the closet full of clothes. When they finally found a style that matched the background Eric and Nell set up, they headed back out to the bullpen and said their goodbyes to their team. Every now and then, they would talk to the team through ear pieces, but otherwise, once they stepped out of the office, they were no longer Kensi Marie Blye and Martin Deeks, they were the undercover couple. Andy and Nick Collins. Nick worked at a Target about ten miles from the undercover house, and Andy was a stay at home trophy wife.
