I do not own NCIS Los Angeles! Please review and favorite for more!
It had been months since Kensi's mission went south when she was kidnapped, and held along side her ex fiance. Kensi had been through hell and wanted to be alone for a while, which the agent knew probably crushed her partner's heart. She had been home for a while, and even had Nate stop by to check on her. Other than that she remained home to recover and rethink everything.
However the field agent was cleared and ready to return to OPS and needed to return to the people she missed and left behind. Kensi drove to work, with million of thoughts growing in her head. How will Deeks handle seeing me again? Will the team be able to work with me again? Will I mess everything up? Will I freeze up in the field? These thoughts ran through her scattered brain, but didn't realized she had already made it to work.
She locked her car and walked to the front door, she entered the building. At first she felt butterflies in her stomach and wanted to turn around and leave, maybe she wasn't ready to return to work. However she heard the voices of familiar people, that made her feel better. She walked further and stopped seeing two familiar faces, they were battering back and forth but stopped seeing Kensi.
"Kens," It was Callen who spoke first.
"Hi," Kensi said shyly.
Sam stood up, he hugged her first since he was the closest. Then Callen reached for a hug, and she gave him one. As she held onto Callen, her attention went to an empty desk. Sam noticed her eyes on a missing Deeks.
"LA PD has him." Sam said.
Kensi let go of Callen, "Why?"
Callen shrugged, "I don't know. He never mentioned why."
Sam nodded and sat down, "Shaggy just grabbed his things and left. We haven't seen him in a couple of days, we think it might be undercover thing." Sam said.
Kensi nodded slowly, "Oh. I was really wanting to see my partner, and apologize for pushing myself away from him." Kensi said.
Callen smiled, "Kens he knows you needed your space."
Sam nodded, "Yeah Deeks wants the best for you."
Kensi nodded and took her seat at her desk. There was a lot of paper work to get done and that is what the field agents were going to do. Kensi reached for a pen and found a small little note for her. It read "Fern" on the front, so she had a guess who it was from.
-Fern
Sorry I won't be around the OPS for a while, LA PD is pulling me back to help work on this really big case. I know with your return that this seems unfair and I promise I'll make it up to you. I just want you to know I am thinking about you. Take care.
-Deeks
Kensi couldn't help but smile reading the letter, yet the smile sort of faded. As much as the note meant to her, seeing him would make her day ten times better. Callen and Sam noticed Kensi's behavior over the situation regarding Deeks' absent. Before Sam or Callen spoke, they saw the boss walk over.
"Miss Byle, it is good to see you again." Hetty spoke.
Kensi smiled, "Yeah you too Hetty." Kensi replied.
Hetty watched Kensi hold onto the note a little tighter than before, "I assure you Miss Byle that Mr. Deeks is quite alright."
Kensi smiled a little bit bigger, "Yeah I know."

LA PD Detective Marty Deeks was walking through the police station, he saw some friendly faces and a lot of glares. The man knew how hated he was on the department, and he also recalled his NCIS partner ask him to just quit being a cop. It wasn't that simple in Deeks' mind. However the cop walked to the front desk to see a friendly face, a new rookie who thought of Deeks as an idol. This kid just graduated the academy and seemed to be getting his life together.
"Oh mornin' detective." He said.
Deeks turned, "Uh morning Sean." Deeks said.
"You- know my name?" Sean asked.
Deeks pointed to the officer's name tag on his uniform, "I can read."
Sean laughed an embarrassment, "Wow I feel stupid."
Deeks formed a small smile, "Nah its alright. How you liking the force?"
Sean smiled, "Great. I mean working at the desk is slow, hopefully I can start going on patrol." Sean said.
Deeks nods, "I don't miss patrol much."
Sean nodded, "Of course because you are a detective and also works with NCIS. I think you're amazing." Sean said.
Deeks laughed, "Ah nothing that interesting."
Deeks watched two officers bring in a criminal, he smells like booze. Sean and Deeks made a face and turned from the officers beginning in the crook and then to each other. Deeks checked his cell for the time and then turned to the kid behind the desk.
"Ah, I gotta go see Bates." Deeks said.
Sean nodded, "Oh good luck. Officer Reid says he isn't in a good mood."
Deeks smiled, "Is Bates ever in a good mood?"
Sean laughed at Deeks comment, and then watched the detective walk off. Deeks had a million thoughts beginning to rush into his head. Is Kensi back at OPS? Did she read my note? Did Callen or Sam read it too? How long is Bates going to keep me here? Deeks rubbed his hands through his hair and reached the elevator.
He pressed the button for the elevator to come for the bottom floor, just then he heard a car pull by the front glass doors. Stepping out were people in black masks and carrying machine gun. Deeks eyes widen, and didn't even realized he screamed for everyone to take cover.
-NCISLA-
Nell came running from the second floor to the bullpen, the three agents were talking like usual. All three had smiles and laughed, their paper work was completed. Nell got their attentions with her worry look, first it was Callen who stood.
"We have a situation." Nell spoke.
"What?" Sam questioned.
Nell nodded, "Um well you see. Something happened at LA PD." Nell said.
Kensi rose quickly, "What happened Nell?" Kensi asked.
Nell looked at Kensi's concerned eyes, she even saw some tears forming in Kensi's eyes. Kensi couldn't bare to loose Deeks or even hear if something was happening. Nell turned from Kensi to the men whom were standing in front of her.
"There was a shoot out, some thugs came by with machine guns and lit the place up. Threw pipe bombs at the building and the works." Nell said.
"Is Deeks alright?" Sam asked.
Kensi could barely breathe, Deeks was at LA PD he could have been shot or even worst. Kensi turned to Nell, Nell looked at the three and shrugged.
"Hetty has been in contact with Bates. He says Deeks is alright." Nell said.
"Bates' version of alright and our version are clearly two different things." Callen said.
Nell nodded, "Even though this has no military angel Bates has accepted us coming down to help." Nell said.
Callen nodded and turned to Sam and Kensi, "Let's go."
-NCISLA-
Deeks was getting patched up, a bullet grazed his shoulder. He had some scratches and bruises from the explosion, yet other than that he was fine. He saw his boss walk over, Bates had dried blood on his head and blood on his suit.
"How many?" Deeks asked.
The EMT was done, and Deeks gets off the ground to stand next to his boss. Bates turned from his best detective to the destroyed station.
"We can't say yet, there are still men trapped inside." Bates said.
Bates coughed, and coughed. Deeks shoots the man a concerned look, as Bates shook his head.
"I was already checked out, its the smoke. I just need water." Bates said.
Deeks reached down and handed Bates a cool bottle of water that the EMT handed him, "Here I haven't drank it."
Bates nodded and took a drink, "Thanks Marty. You may be a pain in the ass, but you are truly a good guy."
Deeks looked at his boss, "Never thought I'd hear those words."
Bates nodded and took another drink, "Never thought this would happen to my station."
Bates and Deeks walked over to the damage of the building, Deeks turned seeing officers lifting the rubble in order to save their own men. Deeks turned to Bates, Bates was ordering the man whom were able to work orders. Deeks wanders over and notices the glares didn't come from the officers. It was at that moment they didn't care he worked with NCIS.
"Right now men, we find out who these bastards are for destroying our home. Killing our brothers and sister, and we'll make them pain for this." Bates said.
Deeks looked at Bates, the man coughed again. He coughed harder and harder, the officers looked at the man in concern. Then Bates fell onto Deeks, who kept the man up. Bates started to cough up blood, and Deeks lost his balance and fell. The officers crowded around but began to call for help.
"Help!"
"We need a medic!"
"Bates is injured!"
"Man down!"
Deeks looked from the concerned and scared officers and turned to his boss, a man Deeks had never got along. They were never on any good terms mostly when Deeks decided to work with Hetty and NCIS, but at this moment things seemed different. Deeks was actually concerned over this man and worried, he wanted this man to be alright.
"Bates stay with me," Deeks said and then shouted, "Where is that medic!"
What will happen next?
