"Ready to go?" Sam called over to Kensi and Deeks.

"Just waiting for Kensi to fi…"

"Ready!" Kensi said as she came out of the tent and put on her water sneakers. She and Deeks had opted for the style more like shoes than slippers because of the better durability. She threw his towel to him as they zipped up their tent.

"Hurry up slow pokes!" Callen said.

"Sorry, we don't have the same gender changing advantage." Kensi replied jokingly.

"Well I suggested it…" Deeks said, already expecting the punch he received. Callen and Sam just ignored him.

"Theres limited parking, so we should probably only take one vehical."Callen suggested.

"We don't have room in our backseat." Kensi quickly replied.

"We can make room in the truck." Sam said as he started moving things into the covered bed of the pickup truck. "Alright, Its still going to be a little tight, but its only for a few minutes." He said as he stepped away and climbed into the passenger seat. Callen was already in the drivers, leaving Kensi and Deeks in the back.

"A little tight?" Kensi said as she looked at the space that was cleared out for them. It was barely one seat, maybe one and a half, but that was pushing it. There was also almost no leg room, which was a problem with Deeks being over six foot and Kensi close behind at five eight.

"We don't have to go…" Callen reminded them, trying to get out of it, but he should have known better.

"We'll make it work." Kensi quickly replied. And with that, they began trying to fit in. Deeks climbed in first, trying to scoot as far over as he could, but realizing there still wouldn't be enough room for Kensi to sit, especially when his knees were up as they were. Kensi was determined though and climbed up, basically sitting in Deeks' lap, pulling the door shut behind her.

"Wow, uh, this is a little uncomfortable." Deeks said as Kensi's back pushed into his shoulders and she sat on his hip because of his position. It took a few minutes of moving around but Kensi and Deeks finally were able to fit onto the seat with a relative level of comfort. Deeks had turned so that his feet were against the door on top of the bags, while Kensi sat practically on his lap with her legs going the opposite way.

"All good?" Callen asked smcirking at the position they were stuck in.

"As good as its going to get." Kensi replied.

They headed out of the camping area and back down to the main road where they crossed to the gravel parking lot. There weren't many cars there yet, as it was only eight in the morning still, but it would be filling up quickly. Kensi hopped out of the cab and waited for Deeks to do the same.

She was not patient enough to wait for Sam and Callen to grab their towels as she started down to the slide, bringing Deeks with her. They could already hear the water, which was making Kensi even more excited to get down there.

Deeks was trying not to stare too much, but it was proving to be difficult. With those black and neon green spandex shorts and form fitting black under armour top, she was beyond stunning. She had so much energy right now, making her seem to glow, even in the shade of the trees.

Kensi of course, noticed the staring, but didn't even care at this point. She would have to thank Hetty for this when they got home. Camping was a favorite hobby of hers, but not something she found fun to do alone. She'd not really gone since her dad died until she started working at NCIS. Deeks didn't look too bad himself. He had on a white under armour muscle shirt with a pair of red swimming shorts over compression shorts in case of a snag.

They finally got to the bottom of the steps, with Callen and Sam still nowhere to be seen. They walked to the end of the rock and watched a few kids and adults go through.

"Watch that corner, Kens, see how people are kicking off of it? It looks like it would just slam you into it if you didn't."

"And watch in the middle there, it seems like there's a rough spot." Kensi said pointing almost directly in front of them.

"It looks like it ends in a pool." Deeks said looking further down.

"Yeah it does. How long was this thing again?" She questioned as she looked up towards the top.

"I think it said it was over a quarter mile. That seems about right."

Sam and Callen finally came down and they all headed to the top. It wasn't very steep at all, maybe a twenty to thirty foot drop from top to bottom.

"Watch, these are really slippery." Kensi warned as she and Deeks made their way across. Immediately they heard a huge splash. Sam had fallen down and brought Callen down with him. Kensi and Deeks were in hystarics.

"I warned you!" Kensi said, still laughing.

"I really wish I had that on camera!" Deeks said as they climbed back to their feet.

Kensi sat down under the tree limb that served as a starting point for the slide. She pushed off and leaned back as she let the water carry her down to the first deep spot.

"Come on Deeks!" She called up to him as he sat down in the water. She couldn't really hear very well but she could tell he was complaining about it being cold. She laughed as he flipped onto his stomach after hitting the wall at a wrong angle and then frantically tried to flip back before sliding into the pool she was currently in. Kensi had actually pulled herself up onto the little ledge around the pool as she waited, so she wouldn't get plowed over.

"Come on, lets do the next part!" Kensi said excitedly.

She dropped back in next to him as they made their way to the next segment. Just as Kensi was about to go, Deeks grabbed the back of her shirt as he slid in behind her, making a two person train.

"Ready, one, two, three." Deeks said as he pushed off and leaned back pulling her down with him. The corner was very smooth and very fast. Kensi let out a little squeal as they rounded it and were almost at the top of the rock. They landed with a splash in the next pool of water. Kensi and Deeks turned around to see Sam and Callen coming down after them.

Just before they reached them, Kensi slipped. Deeks immediately reached out and grabbed her, pulling her up and over to him.

"You okay?" He asked.

"yeah, theres just a stronger current here." She said as the guys reached them.

They lined up to go down the last part. Because the water level was lower atthis time of year, they had to almost crab walk over the next section because it was too rough to slide on. Next was the part that they had to avoid the corner on.

"Be careful kens." Deeks said only loud enough for her to hear over the roaring water.

"I will." She said smiling back at him. She took a deep breath and slid down, pushing off the rock. Deeks followed close behind her.

"I'm glad I listened. This is fun!" Deeks said as they slid down the last part side by side, after he caught up to her. The last part was over four feet wide and landed in the pool at the end. Deeks looked back as they rounded the last semi corner and saw Sam and Callen just now getting through the narrow corner they kicked off. He grabbed at her hand as they entered the water. He was very surprised when she didn't immediately pull away after they came up. He was a little surprised at the initial depth, it was almost over his head, but quickly became shallow. He helped Kensi over to the side so they could see Sam and Callen come down.

They heard them coming before they could see them. There was a chorus of "Ow"'s , "Ah"'s and other painful noises coming down the water slide. Finally they saw callen come out, tumbling backwards so they could only see his feet, followed by sam who landed on top of him.

"I'm giving up. I'm too old for this." Callen said as he came out.

"Hey, G, Want to head over to look at Cucumber Falls? It's just down the path from here."

"Sure, as long as we don't slide down, I don't think ill be able to sit for a week!"

Kensi and Deeks laughed as they headed back for another run.

More people had arrived by now and it was getting hotter. Kensi and Deeks got in the line at the top of the slide. This time it was Kensi who almost fell and Deeks that caught her by the waist. He decided to risk it and pulled her in front of him so her back was to his chest and he crossed his arms in front of her so that his hands rested on her hips. He put his head on her shoulder and she looked up at him raising one eyebrow. He half expected her to elbow him but she surprised him and didn't.

"Are we going down together again?" She asked as she watched the people in front of them go down.

"If you want to." He said, she just nodded her head in response. They waited about a minute longer and then sat down at the top. They went the whole way down without stopping this time.

"Want to go again?" He asked when they reached the bottom.

She thought about it. "Actually that looks kind of fun…" She said as she watched a few people jump into a deeper pool about 20 yards away. There was a large rock for people to jump from, and of course it was something she would want to do, therefore he would do it also.

They made their way to the boulder and proceeded to jump off of it a few times. Callen and Sam had hiked back by this point, but were not seen by Kensi and Deeks.

Callen took a few pictures of them as they jumped off the rock hand in hand then took some more as they went down the slide again.

The guys decided to hike the bike trail, as Kensi and Deeks didn't seem like they were going to be done any time soon.

After about the seventh time down the slide, Kensi and Deeks were done and were sitting on the side of the slide on the rock that covered the entire area watching people slide by. Somehow they ended up sitting on Deeks' towel wrapped in Kensi's. Deeks arm migrated around to her hip as she leaned on his shoulder. They were sitting in the warm sun, but Kensi decided she was getting too hot and wanted to head up towards the top to put her feet in.

A group of teenage and college age boys walked down as Deeks was gathering their things to move. He watched as they nudged each other and pointed towards Kensi. Deeks just smiled at this, he knew his partner was attractive, but she was his, well not officially, but he still considered her to be his. Either way, he knew she thought of him in a similar way and he didn't have to worry.

Kensi turned around to see where he was and told him to hurry up. He watched as all six of their heads turned and their faces dropped realizing they didn't have a chance.

He spread out the towels and joined her in wading into the water and laughing at the people going down the slide. He came up behind her and wrapped his arms around her as he had before, but didn't notice that Sam and Callen were back already and had the camera again. They smirked at each other before climbing the steps and heading back to sit in the truck where they called Kensi and Deeks and told them they were ready to go.
