CHAPTER 6: FOUR MONTHS...

FOUR MONTHS LATER...

Four months ago Kensi and Marty had their first date...

After that date things changed between the two. The one date became many more and their personal relationship grew serious.

They were careful not to let it interfere with their work.

It was only a week after Kensi and Marty's first date, that the rest of the team figured out what was going on. At first Kensi and Marty tried to deny any change or a relationship between them, because they had wanted to keep it a secret for a while.

So they could figure things out between them. They wanted to see if they could have a personal and professional relationship.

In the end trying to keep their relationship from the rest of the team had not worked and they finally had to admit to everyone that they were in a personal romantic relationship.

Callen and Sam looked ready to kill Marty they told him if he ever hurt Kensi he would pay.

Marty then joked they would have to get in line because Kensi would kill him first and there was a good chance his body might not be found.

Nell and Eric were happy for them, and it was then Kensi and Marty wondered why they hadn't seen it before...

There seemed to be something going on between Nell and Eric.

Hetty of course did not seem surprised at all, she gave them the 'Partner's involved speech' and after they talked to her.

As Kensi and Marty walked away after talking to Hetty said they heard something that sounded suspiciously like...

'It's about bloody time.'

Marty still had his apartment, but it seemed more and more over the last few months he was barley there.

Monty and he spent most of their time at Kensi's house now. Almost every night of the week since about a week after the two started dating.

Everything seemed to be going great, but when things are going great...that's when most of the time something is bound to go wrong.

There had been something off about Marty for a couple of weeks now, and when Kensi asked him about it...

He would make a joke or change the subject.

This worried Kensi and she feared he was on the verge of breaking up with her, but little did she know...

PRESENT...

KENSI'S HOUSE...

BEFORE SUNRISE...

It was still dark when the alarm went off and Kensi groaned. She was usually able to get up in the morning, but after last night...

A late night of making love...

She was tired, because they had not gotten to sleep until just a few hours ago.

"Turn off the alarm, Marty." Kensi muttered.

She felt him move and the alarm stopped.

"Morning, Sunshine. Come one, get up...I have a surprise for you." Marty whispered in her ear, but Kensi just buried her face in her pillow. "Marty, the sun is not even up yet. Go surfing on your own...I don't have to watch you." Kensi muttered her face still in her pillow.

"Come on, Kens. I told you I have a surprise, but I guess you don't want..." Marty began with a grin on his face and Kensi opened her eyes looking at him.

"What's the surprise, Marty? Dropping me in the ocean like you did four months ago?" She mumbled with a sleep slurred voice. "Nope, you'll just have to come with me and see for yourself what it is." Marty said mysteriously and leaned over to kiss her lips.

With a sigh Kensi sat up and pushed the blankets back.

"Are you going to tell me why this surprise has to be before sunrise on a Saturday after we had such a late night last night?" Kensi asked glaring at him. "A late night of fun and I'll tell you when we get there, Fern." Marty replied.

He walked around the bed and gave her another peck on the lips, before pulling back.

HALF AN HOUR LATER...

Marty hooked Monty to his leash and the three of them headed out the door.

"Where..." Kensi began to ask again. "Not until we get there." Marty repeated the grin on his face getting bigger.

After that the silence settled between them.

THE BEACH...

It wasn't long before Marty pulled into a parking space at the beach.

"Really… the beach, I told you I didn't have to watch you surf." Kensi growled, clearly annoyed. "I never said I was going surfing, Princess. You said that...I told you that I have a surprise for you." He shot back grabbing Monty's leash and getting out of the car.

Kensi stayed seated in the passenger's seat determined not to get out. She stared straight ahead, until Marty knocked on the window and she looked at him.

"Come on, Kens. We can't watch the sunrise from here." Marty told her. "It's Saturday...A day to sleep in and you brought me to the beach to watch the sunrise?" Kensi demanded. "That's a part of it, but...there's more." Marty told her and his smile was the same mysterious smile he had before they had left her house.

Reluctantly Kensi opened the car door and got out. It was a minute later they reached a place on the beach and Marty stopped walking, than turned to face her.

"K-Kens..." Marty began.

Kensi noticed that he seemed as nervous now as he had been four months ago, when he asked out on their first date.

"What's wrong, Marty?" She asked, as she looked at him with concern. "I just thought this would be the best time to watch the sunrise..." He joked with a nervous smile. "Marty..." Kensi began. "I also thought this would be the perfect time to ask..." He seemed more nervous now and couldn't seem to get whatever he was trying to say out.

"Ask what, Marty?" She pressed after a moment. "The sunrise is the start of a new day..." He began and she snorted. "Really… Sherlock, I didn't know that." She said sarcastically.

"I don't want this to be the start of a new day. I want this to be...the rest of our lives together. Kensi Marie Blye, will you marry me?" Marty asked pulling a ring out of his pocket and getting down one knee in the sand.

At first Kensi was a little shocked. He looked so sincere and she could see how much he loved her...because she loved him just as much.

There could only be one answer to his question...

"Yes, Martin Andrew Deeks...this can be the start of the rest of our lives together." She replied and just as the last words left her mouth, the sun rose higher.

Marty got up and putting the ring on her finger, his hand went to her hips as he pulled her as close to him as possible and kissed her.

A kiss that she returned with as much passion as he was putting into it and it was only the need to breathe that broke them apart.

"I love you, Kens." He whispered, resting his forehead against hers and looking into her eyes. "I love you too, Marty." Kensi said not taking her eyes away from his and she leaned up pressing her lips to his once more.
