Now a message from our sponsor. To the guest who hated chapter but gave 5 but gave no reason-as they say in the show, haters gotta hate. Also, some people need to read more carefully before reviewing. Finally to one person who I like to read and follow-sorry but gotta write what I feel, just like 'My Kensi' and 'My Deeks' so sorry and Semper Fi. Now let's make some progress and start to sort this out.
Kensi's reaction was immediate-she fell in his lap having feinted. Sam just stroked her back as he pulled his phone and called Michelle. He explained all and asked if he could bring Kensi home. He was afraid of her being alone. Hetty came over the coms saying "I have called Julia and told her about Mr. Deeks. She will see to Monty and will call Kensi later. Take care of her Sam, this is something she may not recover from soon if at all."
Once Kensi came around they headed back to OSP to lock up their armor and grab their bags to head home. As they pulled into the lot, even before Sam could turn the car off, Kensi had G almost doubled over as she forced her way out of the back seat of the Challenger. She was off at a sprint, Sam and G trying to catch her. She headed straight to OPS as Hetty looked up and yelled "agent Blye" to no avail. She kept on going, knowing Granger would be in the OPS center. As she slammed thru the door, the wonder twins both jumped. Nell managed to react and get in front of her. Eric was saying "we deleted every inch of that tape Kens, there is no record anywhere and most of all we are truly sorry. He was a friend and a good guy."
"Except in his mind" she snarled looking at Granger. She actually pushed Nell aside and advanced on Granger who just stood there as she snarled "are you also the one who didn't tell anyone about Deeks aren't you? The man I love dead and you clam up for the sake of the mission? You had what you needed. You could have arrested him, pulled me out, brought me back here and told me about Deeks, but you just acted the jerk and pulled that stunt. Did you want me exposed? You know what we may have to do to get what we need and we have standards about how we handle that situation and you blew it. Stay clear of me or you will get hurt." And she turned to leave
"What is your problem Blye, you did your job as you knew you might have to. Besides maybe you learned something about how you really felt about the detective and I make decisions based on what's best for the case. Agents are always secondary, you know that" barked Granger in his best baritone, with hints of nervousness but a smirk never the less.
She walked back over to him and got in his face and growled "you get your rocks off watching that Assistant Director? You make a copy before they deleted it or did you just want to embarrass the hell out of me hoping to get a real good look just 'cause you're a prick? And now I find out Deeks was killed 2 days ago and no one saw fit to tell me 'cause you wanted me to explore my feelings for him' while undercover and wrestling with that ape with a 1 track mind. I was trying to do what I was assigned to do-get the information from the guy. You hung me out to dry intentionally and you already had it. You could have stopped that whole scene before it started. Now, I'm headed to the morgue. I have to see for myself. Then you will stay the hell away from me or I walk. I hear Pride is looking for help." By now Sam and G were there and actually concerned that Kensi would go after Granger but more worried about her driving in her state.
"Agent Blye, watch your tongue. What happened-happened. Get over it. As for Deeks, cause of death was obvious. His mom signed off on the cremation. It was done yesterday. Now back off and do your job. You 3 need to interrogate the gunny as soon as possible." As she pulled out her knife G reached her and spun her around.
"Kensi, go with Sam, calm down and then head to the morgue, we'll handle the interrogation. Everyone else give me and Granger the room. NOW!"
As they left they all heard Kensi say "I'm going to my mom's after the morgue, she needs to know and then to see his mom. Maybe I'll be back in tomorrow" and she was off. In the car her mind was racing- -why wasn't I told? I don't believe it. Something is off about this whole thing Sam and G were right. I gotta go someplace and think. Then, changing plans in mid-stream, she headed towards the ocean. A place no one knew about but the 2 of them.
After they left G spun on Granger and snarled "what the hell. Why did you do that to her. We could have gone 2 hours earlier and spared her the shame and the trauma. That is beyond cruel. I want an answer-now."
"Back off agent Callen. You do as you're told and there was no shame, nothing was exposed except maybe the fact she isn't quite all in after all" and Granger headed for the door. Sometime later he woke up and found himself lying on the floor looking up at Hetty staring down at him.
"Satisfied Assistant Director? This how you expected it to go when you decided to put your hand on the tiller for this op. I told you before if you do that you have to keep it there." She then turned and walked away- -grinning and thinking nice right cross agent G. Callen. Then she added over her shoulder "let me know when you want to tell me what's really going on Owen-all of it, not just the crap you told me in the Cobra as we headed to LAPD. This smacks of one of your screwed up ops and it's just started."
Shortly after that Granger called Hetty back to OPS and hooked up with Vance in a teleconference. "Let me explain what I did and why, then you can decide what happens." 30 minutes later he ended it by saying "if you want me to explain it to her or to all of them I will. Maybe I was out of line but it was for good reasons, at least in my mind. I owe Donny and I'm fine with him being here and her partner but it stops there."
She sat down on the rock that overlooked the water in 'their cove' the one they found hiking the coast one day. Then she let her mind go was I gonna cheat, did I just lose control and give up? We've all been there before-Deeks and Monica, Nichole, G and Tracy, Sam and Jada. Why is it bugging me? Is it 'cause I feel I could have and should have stopped it sooner? Gotta deal with it and decide about telling him and what to say. And what the hell is going on with the secrecy in OSP? Granger is being an ass and Hetty was nowhere to be seen. This can't be a sting of some kind can it? Deeks promised he would never lie to me again or hide something like this. But it would have been so easy for them to arrest him 2 hours earlier and tell me about Deeks with some dignity and compassion. Then again if it is a Granger op maybe even Hetty is clueless like what she did in Afghanistan. Geeze, Sam and G were right. There is something goin' on but what it is. I just gotta ride this out. Why can't I handle my jealousy the same way he handles it. He trusts me pure and simple. I'm back to doing not being. Sam was right. I create the problem then get mad at the one person who doesn't have it coming. That goes clear back to the kiss on the bike before Siderov got hm. Ok brain on overdrive again. Someone forgot to communicate something. That's gotta be it. What else could it be? Yep, that's it. It was apparent, even to her that her brain was going 200 miles an hour in 8 directions at once. She had to focus for everyone's sake especially hers. Then, feeling like she had it figured out-at least what was going on with Deeks-she headed for her mom's then his mom's and shared what she thought and what had happened, and trying to make sure they understood that Deeks death was not a sure thing. She also decided what happened was due to a lack of focus and concentration but she would find a way to tell Deeks the truth if only she had the chance. This wasn't a greater good secret. That is what they both called a secret that had to remain with each one only due to the nature of the event. They both admitted they had those in their past and she remembered telling him that even if he did murder someone for the greater good she would stick with him as part of a discussion they were having at a crime scene.
Does that clear anything up? We still have to figure everything out and what did Granger tell Hetty and Leon. Do you want to get to the end of this, I ask with great trepadition!
