AN: This is will be a 3-shot because I was bored in my math class. I know what you thought I was going to say but this one can't be blamed on SpongeBob. In fact, I'm quite proud to announce I introduced my baby brother to the amazing world of Dragon Ball Z and that's his new addiction (one I can actually deal with). I hope you enjoy and review ;-)

Her father was a marine.

It was more than what he did for a living.

It was who he was, his life.

He taught her every single thing he could so she could grow up to become a strong, independent woman.

And she welcomed every single thing he taught her with an open mind. But there was one thing she never wanted to listen.

Or, better yet, there was something that never made sense to her.

He never punished her.

Whenever she did something she wasn't supposed to do, he would simply say that little girls who play with fire get burnt.

It never made sense in her mind.

She never got hurt when she played with fire…or anything else for the matter.

She often hurt other people but the fire would never burn her.

However, right now, as she faces him with a look on his face she can't quite read (a mix between anger, frustration, confusion and something else she can't name), her father's words start making sense to her.

Maybe she shouldn't have played with fire.

Kensi hates her alarm clock for waking her up in the middle of such a good dream.

But she has to get up and get ready for work.

She was dreaming about him once again and let's just say it wasn't exactly an appropriate-for-all-audiences dream.

The wetness between her legs is a clear evidence of just how good the dream was.

The brunette gets up and gets in the shower after removing all her clothes and tying her hair to avoid getting it wet. The warm water does nothing to calm her down. In fact, it only arouses her further. So, deciding that she can't handle it anymore, Kensi gets down on the bathtub and spreads her legs.

She would never dare to admit it out loud but this was the exact reason why she bought a massage shower-head, not because of her aching muscles on the end of a long day of work. She turns the tap to the cold water and directs the water flow of the shower-head towards her clit, imagining that it's him touching her there, his smirk in place and his eyes clouded with lust.

It doesn't take her long to reach her peak and, when she does, it's his name that she screams, engulfed by the pleasure.

After she recovers, Kensi gets out of the shower and wraps the warm fluffy towel around herself.

It's only when she's putting her underwear on that she realizes how ridiculous this is.

She's a young attractive woman. There's no reason why her fantasies have to remain just fantasies.

Yes, they work together but he's not her partner. Technically, he's her boss.

Why does that thought turn her on so damn much?

Anyway, she has seen the way he looks at her. It's not in an innocent way either. Now, the only thing she needs to do is break him.

Callen might be sure of himself but, when it comes to personal things, he might need a little nudge. And she's perfectly capable of giving him just that. She grabs a comfortable pair of jeans she usually wears for work and that hug her in all the right places. It's a warm day so she searches for a shirt with a slightly low-neckline that is sexy but still appropriated for work and throws a black leather jacket on top of it.

Unfortunately, her boots aren't an option for today seeing as she has a swollen ankle.

It turns out that running after a bad guy through the beach is not a good idea. It's not as easy to run on sand a sit is to run on normal floor.

So she puts on a pair of snickers and walks out of her bedroom, after combing her hair and letting it fall down on its natural curls.

After a few minutes, she's walking (or limping) to her car and driving off to meet Deeks.

She spots him at the place they agreed to meet the day before and gets out of the car.

It doesn't please her to meet him at a dog park but her partner can be a very stubborn man too. Monty runs to her as soon as he sees her and Deeks smiles, walking in her direction too.

Kensi gets down and pets Monty, a dog she eventually grew fond of. Deeks gets there and hands her a coffee and a box with donuts, allowing her to choose first.

He doesn't comment on her wardrobe because it's not really the first time she wears it for work. It's nothing new (except for the fact she has an agenda today).

They all get in the car and she starts driving for work. When he finishes his donut, the silence in the car is over.

"You're planning something."

Kensi frowns but doesn't take her eyes off the road to look at him. "Is that a question?"

She can see him shaking his head through the corner of her eye. "No, it's a statement. You have the 'I'm planning something' look on your eyes."

She tries to deny it, even though it's kind of a lost battle. "I'm not planning anything."

He's stubborn, though. "Yes, you are."

There's not a hint of uncertain in his voice but she still gives it a try. "No, I'm not."

She sees his smirk, even though her eyes are still focused on the road, and she knows he's onto something. And his next words confirm her fears. "So you're not going to seduce Callen?"

She parks her car on her usual spot just in time to turn to him with a shocked look on her face. "How on earth could you possibly know that?"

Deeks shrugs and doesn't make a move to get out of the already parked car. "You're my partner. I've seen the way you look at him."

She doesn't dare to deny it. It would be useless. So she just sighs. "I'm screwed."

Deeks smirks and puts his sunglasses on. "If by that you mean 'he's going to throw me over the nearest flat surface and screw me until I can't walk' then yes, I believe you are correct."

Kensi can't help but smile at that as they both walk out of the car and into the building. This is going to be very interesting.
