A/N: Sorry guys for not updating sooner. I'm not going to get into all the reason this is late (Or was it? I never really promised anything.). Guys, I tried to make it slow to build up suspense, but lucky for you, I not really good at keeping people waiting.

I just want to say that this story is not just about Kensi and Deeks, but I will try to put more Densi moments in here, okay guys. Let me know if you have any more suggestions.

Random: Noooooo… Did you see NCIS "Berlin"? Noooooooooooooooooooooo… The way they left the episode made me want to scream. He reached for her hand; they at least should have let him hold her hand. (For those of you who didn't watch the episode you won't know what I'm talking about. So don't worry.)

Random 2: Castle fans, were you as sad as I was when they switched "Still" with the "The Squab and the Quail?" I get why they switch them, but I would still have rather seen "Still."

Okay guys, see, I watch a lot of shows, mostly crime dramas (NCIS, NCIS: LA, Castle, Bones, Hawaii 5-0, Law & Order SVU, Criminal Minds, Rizzoli & Isles, Covert Affairs, Perception, Unforgettable, Mentalist etcetera.) so I could go on forever writing my thoughts on them so I'll move on.

What you all came here for:

Chapter Four

[Disclaimer: For those of you who think I own this show, you'll be very disappointed to know: I DON'T.]

Chapter Four

"Can you trace the email?" Callen asked.

"Yes, but we traced the email back to a café." Nell said apologetically. "We'll keep looking."

"Thanks guys, call me if you find anything." Callen said as he walk out of OPS. He made his way down the stairs and right into the bullpen. Once he was in the bullpen he walked in front of Jessica.

Jessica raised her head, worry present in her eyes. "What, what happen? Did you hear from the hospital? Did Kent make it? Don't tell me he's dead. He can't be dead!" She yells.

"Jessica calm down, nothing happened to him." Callen yelled over her assistive babbling.

"Then, what? What's wrong?" She asked as she tried to calm her erratic heartbeat. She was thinking the worst and you can't really blame her.

"That email you husband was sent; it was a picture of you and your family with the word 'Remember' under it." Callen said.

"'Remember,' Remember what?" She asked wiping the few protruding tear from her face.

"I don't know I was hoping you could tell us." Callen said as she looked up into her eyes.

"I," Jessica began as she tried to think of what 'Remember' could mean.

"Guys I think we found something." A voice yelled from the direction of OPS. Everyone in the bullpen turn to see the back of Eric as he made his way back into OPS. Kensi and Deeks got out of their seat and followed Callen to OPS.

Soon as they walked in they were greeted with a rampage of typing by Nell. "Okay, we found a guy fitting a description that one of the nurses gave." Nell said pausing as she pulled up a video of the hospital's emergence room. "This guy," she said as she enlarged the stilled video.

"Do you have any better angles?" Callen said as he studied the picture.

"He never turns to the camera, almost like he knows it's there."

"Maybe Jessica can I.D. him." Kensi said.

"Jessica, we think we found the guy who shot your husband." Callen said.

"Who, who is it?" She said as she looked up into Callen's eyes. Her eyes were now red and her face was puffy. She had been crying, but how wouldn't?

"We don't know," he placed a picture of the guy in front of her. "We couldn't find a better angle." He said.

"Um, I don't know, that could be Kent's friend Frank but I can't tell by the angle of the picture." She looked down and squinted at the picture. "No, you know what? I think this is Kevin Hayes, he lives down the hall from us." She said as she picked up her phone and then handed it the Callen. "That's him. When he moved in his music was always loud, and I could have sworn that I heard screaming late at night. I took a picture because if anything got out of hand I could report him."

"Thanks, Jessica." Callen said as he turned to go back to OPS.

"I'll run facial recognition on the photo you sent." Eric said as his fingers made a mad dash across the keyboard. "His real name is Tyler White, forty, he was busted at fifteen-years-old for the rape of a twelve-year-old girl, in juvenile detention for three years before he was let out on good behavior. He was a model citizen for eight years, or that's what everyone thought at the time, he is currently suspected and under investigation for running a human trafficking ring in New York that traffics underage girls from Africa into the country."

"From rape to human trafficking, that a pretty big jump." Deeks commented.

"Maybe Laggs found out about White's ring." Kensi said.

"That's why we didn't recover Kent's computer; White stole it because Kent had information on him." Callen said.

"'Remember,'" Deeks mumbled to himself in realization. "Maybe White threatened him and his family so he wouldn't turn him in."

"But why would White come after him now? If Laggs was afraid of him he wouldn't have said anything." Kensi asked.

"Kent must have been tired of being afraid and decided enough was enough and wanted to turn him in." Callen said.

"Mr. Laggs never had the chance to turn the information in. That information could be the key to taking down one of the United States' biggest human trafficking rings." Hetty said as she "magically appeared." Eric jumped three feet in the air after being startled by Hetty. "We need that information, so three of you are going undercover to retrieve it."

"Okay as long as I don't have to be married to Kensi again." Deeks said.

"Being your wife was a picnic either." Kensi said the tiniest bit hurt by his statement. But she would have denied it if anyone asked.

To anyone else this would be just banter, but Deeks could see that what he said really did hurt her.

"Okay, guys we have work to do." Callen said as he turned towards the exit. Kensi and Deeks started behind him.

"Not you Mr. Callen." Everyone turned around from what they were doing with confused looks on the faces. "Mr. Callen, you stay here, you'll be needed at the hospital when Mr. Laggs wakes up. When he does you'll keep him under protective custody."

"You said the three of us are going." Deeks said, saying the obvious.

"No, Mr. Deeks. I didn't say the three of you are going. I said three of you are going, and that does not include Mr. Callen. Ms. Jones will be joining you on this op." their confusion seemed to grow deeper as they all turned to Nell. "Ms. Jones, Ms. Blye, Mr. Deeks, please go home and pack you things. You might be on this op more than a week, whatever may be in your go bags may not be enough. Mr. Beal and I will begin to create your new identities. Hopefully they will be done by the time you get back." Nell, Kensi, and Deeks walked out of OPS.

Eric turned around quickly to keep himself from yelling at Hetty. She's not even a field agent. What the hell is Hetty thinking? What if she gets hurt or worst killed.

"Mr. Beal, do you have something you would like to say." Hetty asked as if she could read his mind. It wouldn't surprise me if she could. He thought to himself. "Mr. Beal, I understand how you might be upset with your 'partner' going out in the f…"

"Upset, Hetty, she's not agent, she might get hurt." Eric said louder than he intended. "Sorry. Hetty I didn't mean…"

"Ms. Jones is capable of handling herself, do you not agree?" Hetty asked keeping her tone leveled.

"Of course, but…"

"You care for her and you don't want to see her hurt." Hetty said finishing his sentence.

"Yeah," Eric said in a whisper so low, Hetty almost didn't catch it.

"Nell, are you driving me home?" Kensi asked as she, her partner, and Nell made their way down the stair of the building and into the deafening night.

"Wait, where is your car Kens?" Deeks asked.

"Why don't you ride with Deeks?" Nell said. There was something in her voice. Something that if it was anyone else but Kensi, they wouldn't have picked on it, but Kensi did.

"What happened to your car?" Deeks said louder, feeling as if he was unheard.

"My car needed a new battery. Nell I want to ride with you." She said turning away from Deeks.

"Well, your apartment is closer to Deeks' than mine." Nell said as she smiled brightly.

"I'll drive you." Deeks said finally.

"Bye you guys." Nell said as she quickly walked to her car.

"Yeah," Kensi mumbled to herself.

"So why didn't you want to ride with me?' Deeks said as he broke the silence that was place upon the car.

"I never said…"

"Kens, don't lie to me. I know you, and I know you didn't want to ride with me. The way you teeth clenched when Nell suggested it. So why don't you want to ride with me."

"It's nothing." Kensi said folding her arms and looking out into the still night.

"Is it me? Did I do something to make you…"

"No Deeks, it's not you." She said. She didn't like the tone he had. The tone had a protectiveness and something she couldn't name to it.

"Then what?" Deeks asked.

*Earlier that day*

"Kensi?" Nell said trying to gain Kensi's attention.

"What?" Kensi asked as she snapped out of her thoughts.

"What's wrong with you?" Nell asked.

"What do you mean?"

"Don't play dumb?" Nell whispered harshly. "Why are you acting so weird?"

"I'm not." She said trying, but being unconvincing. She stared out the window to the passing cars.

"Why did you ask me to drive you to work?" Nell asked. "You could have asked Deeks."

"Not today." Kensi said then turn her head to stare back out the window.

"Why not? Did he do something stupid?" Nell asked. She wouldn't be surprised.

"Because, he kissed me." Kensi blurted.

"He what?" Nell yelled.

"In my dream, Nell, he kissed me in my dream. Calm down." Kensi said in a hushed tone. She really didn't want to make a big deal out of it. "I just, I had to take a cold shower." She said staring at her cross feet.

"You can't tell me this is your first dream starring Deeks." Nell said.

"No, but it the hottest. They've been getting worst."

"You mean they've getting better." Nell said with a stupid grin on her face.

"I'm afraid of sitting close together, for more than five minutes. That's why I asked you to drive me." Kensi said placing her head in her hands that were resting in her lap. "What do I do?" Kensi mumbled. She raised her head. "I can't keep having these dreams. Every night it's hotter than the last."

*End of flashback*

"Nothing," she said again. "Nell just promised to help me with something personal." She said, turning her gaze out to look at the blurry street lights.

A/N: This chapter is a little longer, but I hope it was worth the wait. This is the most I ever wrote. Guys, I had major writer's block, but I finally figured out what I should do next.

PLEASE REVIEW! Tell me what you think; tell me if you think it's worth staying up until 1:43 in the morning to finish this chapter. I'm really tired and I really don't feel like begging, so "peas, peas" review.
