Beta Reader: I'mJustWeird


Nell woke up a few hours later and looked to see Kensi typing away on her computer. Deeks, however, was asleep in the bed next to her. "Hey guys," she said, her voice heavy with sleep, and thus getting Kensi's attention.

Kensi got up and walked over to Nell's bed, only to see that Nell was in pain. "Alright Nell, if you're in pain, you just need to hit this button, and it'll release some morphine to make the pain go away." Nell reached over slowly and hit the painkiller button. "So how are you feeling, Nell?"

Nell shook her head, trying to ignore her raging headache, "I've had better days. What happened?"

During this time, Deeks was slowly waking up, slowly realizing where they were. "We were in a car accident, if I remember correctly?"

Kensi rolled her eyes at her partner and pulled something up on her phone. She showed it to them, "Do either of you recognize this man?"

Nell racked her brain, "I think that that's the man that rear ended us a few months ago. Back when Deeks was taking me home."

Callen and Sam walked in, "Seems you are right about that. Eric ran his face through the database and came up with a match to that hit-and-run right from before Deeks went on this OP with LAPD. We still have no idea what his name is or why he hit you guys." Sam said as he passed around coffee.

"I saw him a few times on-" Deeks started to say but Kensi cut him off.

"When and where, Deeks?" She asked.

"I was getting there before I was so rudely interrupted. I saw him a few times around near the base of operations when I was undercover. I didn't think anything of it at the time. Why would he want to do this?" After hearing this, Callen quickly left the room with Sam following quickly after his partner.

She shrugged and looked out the door with a confused look on her face. "So how did you end up with a gunshot wound to your shoulder?"

"I have no idea. Give me my gun, and then go with them and get to work. I can protect us here, and you can also send some back up if you want. You need to get to work before you go crazier."

She glared at him, "Deeks-"

"Kens, you're going to go crazy sitting around here and we have the guards at the door and I'll have a gun."

...

-Later in the afternoon-

Kensi walked back into the joined room to see Nell watching the news on TV, while Deeks was asleep. She sat down between the beds, and Nell tossed her some Jell-o. Kensi handed Nell a bag of food, and they both smirked as Nell changed the channel to America's Next Top Model, "Not how wanted to spend the day with him?" Nell asked.

Kensi shrugged as she ate the Jell-o, "I had no idea he was even back in town. He didn't call or anything. But I guess maybe it was going to be a surprise or something."

Nell yawned as her phone started to ring. Kensi handed it to her without glancing at the caller ID, "Hello?"

Callen was the voice on the other end of the line. "I was going to ask what you wanted to have for dinner. Want me to stop by later?"

"Well right now my roommate has company and we're watching Top Model."

Callen chuckled, getting the hint that Kensi was in the room, "Well I am stopping by with something to keep you to busy while you're in there so Deeks doesn't drive you insane, making you use his own gun against himself."

"Hm. Chinese sounds good, if you're paying."

Kensi looked at her and smirked, "Tell Callen we'll have the same as usual."

"Tell Kensi that we'll get their usual. Same for you too?"

She could hear Sam laughing in the background, "Yeah sounds good to me. But I already gave my Jell-o to Kensi." She could hear Callen's fake pout. They said their good-byes and hung up.

Kensi and Nell relaxed and watched the show to its end. The nurse came into the room and checked everything over for Nell and Deeks. Sam and Callen came in with the food. "Delivery at your service," Sam said while glaring at his partner.

Kensi and Nell burst out laughing, "You lose a bet?" Deeks asked him while trying to suppress his laughter.

Sam tossed Deeks' food onto his lap, "You're and evil person today. At least you two are getting out in a few days."

Callen sat on one of the chairs by the windows, "Yeah Deeks while you're in here make sure to not shoot anyone with that thing. Otherwise I'm taking it away."

Deeks put his hands up as if to say 'surrender', "The only person I might shoot is Sam since he stole my Jell-o again."

...

-Later that night-

Kensi, Sam and Callen were in the office, working on some paperwork when Kensi saw Deeks and Nell walking into the bullpen. "What are you two doing here?" she asked them.

Deeks slumped down in his chair, "Someone just tried to kill us both so we decided to come to the one place where we can stay safe."

Callen headed up to OPs, "Eric. Find the surveillance videos from the hospital corridor around their room and see what you can find."

Eric hacked into the system and found that the same person who had caused this entire problem had taken out the two guards outside of Deeks and Nell's room. The guy had then walked inside the room, but rushed out soon after. "It looks like the same man that caused the accident was in the room. Problem is, I still have no idea who he is or why he wants to kill them."

Hetty was in her office and was looking over the medical files of Deeks and Nell when she noticed something in their blood samples that the doctor had taken earlier. She walked into the bullpen saying, "Miss Jones, a moment alone in my office?"

Nell looked at the team and then followed her to the office. She sat down and took the cup of tea that Hetty offered to her, "Yes Hetty?"

Hetty sipped her tea, "I was looking over a few things and I was wondering if Dr. Carter had the chance to talk over your blood test results?"

Nell blushed and bit her bottom lip, "Yeah he did when Deeks was out of the room for some tests. Will that affect working here?"

"No, it won't change anything right now. But I do suggest that you tell Mr. Callen that you are expecting."

Nell glanced back to where said agent was, "You don't think he'll have a problem-"

She stopped her there, "Mr. Callen has been searching for a long time for information about his family. The idea of becoming a father might be appealing to him, but you won't know until you tell him. No one has to know about your situation until you choose to tell them who the father is or that you're dating."

Hetty walked out to where the team was and said, "Mr. Callen will stay with Miss Jones until we know more about this man, and Miss Blye will stay with Mr. Deeks. Now, it has been a long night. I do suggest that we all go home and get some much needed sleep. Be ready to start anew in the morning."

They all grabbed their bags to go home. Callen helped Nell to his car, and then sat in silence on the way to her place. Once inside, she sat down on the couch and he said, "What's on your mind Pixie?"
