He looked at her beautiful face and smiled to himself. She had never looked more gorgeous to him than on that day. A day that would for most people would be full of joy and happiness, but for Deeks and Kensi it was just a part of another one of their undercover missions…. Although secretly Deeks wished that it was real. Not that he would ever admit that.
He sighed as put down the fake wedding photo. It had been a week since their undercover op in a suburban neighbourhood had come to an end. He missed that life…He missed her.
It was getting harder and harder for him to deny his now obvious feelings for her. Ever since that kiss he realised that he could no longer lie to himself. He was in love. Head over heels, ridiculously, stupidly in love with one Kensi Marie Blye. Little did he know that his partner was struggling with these same feelings.
It was 10pm on a Saturday and Deeks was alone with a cold beer contemplating whether he should text her. He was nervous. It was a strange feeling for him. He was always so confident with women, but something about Kensi turned him weak. After knocking back the last of his beer Deeks plucked up the courage to text her. He got out his phone and typed a simple message that read "I miss you Sugar Bear" his hand shaking as he hit the send button.
Kensi was about to settle on her couch with a stash of candy bars when her phone vibrated on the bench. She got up to check it and it was from Deeks. It read "I miss you Sugar Bear". She just stood there looking at her phone, trying to decide whether he was being serious or it was just his way of teasing her. She knew how much he loved to tease. After a few minutes of over thinking the situation she typed a short message and hit send.
Deeks' heart thumped in his chest as his phone beeped loudly. His hands shook as he went to read it. It was from Kensi… She had actually replied, he thought she would ignore him thinking it was another one of his teasing jokes. As he read her message the beating of his heart became more rapid. She had replied "This couch is lonely without you here next to me". Was she just messing with him or did she really mean that. He decided there was only one way to know for sure. He grabbed his keys and made his way hastily out the door and to his car.
She waited anxiously for a reply her palms beginning to sweat. Why was she no nervous about this. He always flirted with her, it was just a part of their partnership. Something about this was different. It was more…real. The vibration of her phone snapped her out of her thoughts a smile spread across her face as she read "I can fix that for you if you want me to, just tell me what you need princess". Something inside of her went wild. It was a feeling like she had never known before. It was like a million butterflies fluttering crazily in her stomach all at once. It was a strange feeling. Strange, but somehow reassuring. Trying to steady her hand she typed "You Deeks, I need you" her heart raced as she hit the send button. Almost instantaneously she received a reply. It read "Done, open the door" And with that there was a quiet tapping on her door. She tried to calm herself as she reached for the door handle; it proved harder than she thought. She was so nervous.
A huge smile spread across his face as he heard the door in front of him unlock. As the door slowly swung open he stood silently looking into her beautiful brown eyes as she stared intently back into his. He couldn't believe how beautiful she looked in what he assumed where his pyjamas. After what seemed like an eternity of silence he slowly stepped closer to her. Close enough to feel the warmth of her body but not quite touching. His heart thumping so loudly in his chest he was sure she would hear it. With one hand her reached up and gently placed it on her cheek as he leaned closer. He could feel the warmth of her breath as he inched closer. He saw her smile widen a little and with that she gently pressed his lips against hers. Her lips were so soft and warm. Deeks felt as though he were in heaven.
He had waited so long for this moment and now that it had finally come he was relieved. All he could do was stand there and stare at the unbelievably beautiful woman standing before him. As she took his hand in hers and led him inside, he knew he had done the right thing.
