Sadly for Kensi, it had been almost a week since Deeks last visit with her. He called her every night to check on her, but with all the cases they had been working lately he just hadn't been able to get free. Today he left work after lunch, and told Hetty that he was spending the rest of the afternoon with Kensi.

"Can I talk to you for a second?" The nurse asked just before Deeks entered Kensi room.

"Yeah absolutely." Deeks said. He followed the nurse of to the side away from the door to her room. He put his hands in his front pockets, as he waited nervously for the nurse to say something.

"Her ribs are healing up nicely. Her leg however, we have concerns about it. It was broken in two places so we need to get her moving on it. If we don't get her to try and move around, walking is going to be difficult if not impossible when her cast comes off." The nurse explained to Deeks.

"What do you need me to do?" He asked.

"We took her down to the psychical therapy room earlier and tried to get her motivated to walk, but she had no desire to do it. She tried for about three minuets and gave up. I thought maybe you could be more motivating then one of us. Get her to walk even if its just for ten minuets. If she can do this, we can let her go home. She would still have to work with her leg, and see the psychologist for her memory, but being at home around something familiar it may help with her memory." The nurse explained.

"Done." Deeks said, as he turned and headed back towards Kensi's room.

Deeks entered her room this time to find her sitting in the chair next to the window. She appeared to be deep in thought about something, maybe she was daydreaming of a happier place, maybe she was trying desperately to remember who she was, and just maybe she was thinking about him, Deeks thought to himself.

"Good afternoon Sunshine." Deeks said.

"Hi." She whispered softly not bothering to move, or to look at him. He walked over to Kensi and sat down in the chair opposite of her.

"What is with the sour face princess?" He questioned.

"What is there to be happy about?"

"There is always something to be happy about. How about we get out of here for a little while? Want to take a stroll and get some fresh air?" Deeks questioned.

She turned her gaze from the window so she could look at her partner. She felt awful, depressed, and angry, but as soon as she met his eyes she couldn't help but smile.

"Ok." She agreed.

"Fantastic!" Deeks said. He stood up from his chair he was currently occupying, to retrieve the wheel chair on the other side of the room. Returning to Kensi he offered his hand to her. She took his hand and allowed him to pull her up from one chair and help her into the other.

Deeks and Kensi wondered down the halls of the hospital until he reached the door around the side, that would lead them out into the court yard. Kensi squinted her eyes at the bright light of mid afternoon. It had been so long since she had been outside, and out from the confined walls of the hospital that was currently holding her prisoner. The court yard wasn't too bad, she thought to herself, it was definitely better then being inside all day. There were six grey cement tables with matching benches, and one bench right under the Evergreen Tree in the middle of the courtyard. The weather outside today was perfect, it wasn't hot and humid, and there was a gentle breeze blowing that was refreshing to Kensi.

"It's a beautiful day out here today Kensalina." Deeks said.

"Sorry, your stuck here with me." Kensi said sadly. Deeks stopped them just before they had reached their destination. He kneeled down in front of her, so that they were face to face with each other, "I'm not stuck. I am here by choice." Deeks explained.

"I feel like you're here to baby sit just because I am your partner." Kensi explained.

"Kens", he said reaching out and taking her hand out of her lap, "Look at me please." he placed two fingers under her chin, and gently brought her face up so he could look into her eyes. "I am here because I need to be here. I need you to be better, I need you to remember who you are, and right now, right now I need you to walk for me."

"I cant. I tried I cant." Kensi said.

"You can, I know you can. You're the bravest woman in this world. Besides you haven't tried for me. Forget the nurses, forget what they want, I want you to do this for me please. Trust me." He said offering his hands to her.

"How am I suppose to trust you when I don't even know myself?"

"You have always trusted me since the day you put your life in my hands." Deeks explained.

(Flashback)

She was standing there in the middle of the room filled with laser beams. His heart started pounding in his chest when he saw his partner trapped in there. Should he call the bomb squad? Should he try and get them out of there on his own? That was the mental debate that was going on his head right now. Deeks had never seen Kensi so terrified as she was now.

"Deeks please, I cant stay here any longer." She begged.

In that instant his decision was made. The pleading sound in her voice nearly broke him. To see his tough as nails partner so terrified, so helpless, it was more then he could take. One by one he helped her fight the beams, as she flexibly moved her body around, and under them. Then she came to the final one. There was no way around it, no possible escape. Deeks put his gun away, and reached his hands out to her.

"Are you sure?" Kensi asked.

"No." Deeks said honestly.

Without a second thought Kensi placed her hands in her partners. They counted to two, and when they made it to three, Deeks pulled her out of that room and towards his body with as much force as he could mange. The building exploded around them.

"You ok?" Deeks asked brushing the hair out of Kensi's face.

"I gotta pee."

"I think I just did." Deeks explained laughing.

(End flashback)

"You trusted me that day to get you back from the Russians trust me now. Even though we both hit the ground that day, we did it together. And if you fall today, guess what? I will break your fall. I promise. So lets to do this, I want to see you get of here Kens, and I know you want to go home. Do you trust me?" Deeks asked again offering both hands to Kensi like he had that day she was in the laser room. Determined and motivated, Kensi took his hands and he helped her to her feet.

"Don't let me fall." Kensi replied.

"I wont ever let you fall Kens." Deeks responded.

Slowly, on shaky legs Kensi held onto Deeks with everything she had. He began taking a few steps back leading Kensi towards the tree in the middle of the court yard. He knew this was going to be painful for her until she got use to standing on her leg again, he knew this was going to be a journey that would take time to over come. He knew she would make it, and he knew with out a doubt he would be there to make sure she did. Kensi's breathing began to get ragged the further they pushed on.

"Your doing great Kens, almost there." He encouraged her. Three more steps and they made it to the tree.

"I did it." Kensi said, as she leaned her now very tired body against the trunk of the tree.

"You did." He replied, "Now I think someone has earned herself some ice cream. Do you want to go get some before we head back to the room?"

"If you know everything about me, you already know the answer to that."

"Touche Kensalina." He replied with a grin.
