A/N: You guys keep blowing me away with you kind reviews and everything….I love all of you…Thanks for everything…You all are the best…On to the next chapter.

Kensi was sitting beside Deeks 's bed, she felt more relaxed now then she had earlier. She kept rubbing her hand over her abdomen, and thinking about how much her life has changed since she met Deeks. As she sat their watching her hubby sleep, she noticed he didn't eat his jell-o from earlier, never one to let food waste she decided to help herself to it. After all he wouldn't care, and she is eating for 2 now anyway. Deeks opened his eyes and looked over at his wife, he noticed she had stolen his jell-o.

"I was going to eat that, wifey poo!"

"It's been sitting there for hours, besides your child was hungry!"

"That's right blame the poor baby, and anyway I like to let my jell-o breath!" Deeks said as Kensi slurped the jell-o.

"Mmmm…Big baby…" Kensi said as she placed the remaining jell-o on his tray.

"I got shot alright-It's not like in the movies…" Deeks said as he strained to sit up a bit.."There's no slow motion..No awesome music being played, It's just pain. Have you ever been shot?" Deeks asked as Kensi once again relaxed in her chair without answering him.

"…You have been shot…Where?..."

"I've never been shot! "

"I don't believe you! Was it an embarrassing body part…?" Deeks questioned as Kensi chuckled.. "It was, wasn't it?"

"You know Marty, there's still a lot we have to learn about each other. But you would know if I had been shot!" Kensi reminded him as she stood up out of the chair; he watched her walk to the foot of the bed. Searching her body with his eyes trying to remember, if he had seen any scars on her.

"OK Sam faxed over a list of suspects, there are a lot of names here. I'd say about a hundred, so let's just…."

"I've really pissed that many people off?" Deeks said…

"I was actually thinking, the list is pretty short." Kensi said with a smile.

"Well you want to add your name to it…"

"Yeah..you got a pencil?"

"The butt…you were shot in the butt?"

"If…I had been shot in the butt hubby…you would have seen it.. Now let's start at the beginning."

"Seems like as, good a place as any." Deeks agreed.

"Ok..Victor Rush?" Kensi started…

"Victor Rush…Victor Rush…Petty theft, repeat offender."

"Ronald Greene?" Kensi asked reading the next name on the list.

Deeks gave a sign before answering, "Second degree murder, um , surrendered."

"Silvia Grey?"

"Restraining order, me against her, cause it was a..bad break up.." Kensi looked at him..

"We're going to need more jell-o.."

They had been working on the list for a while now- Kensi had gone back to sit in the chair beside Deeks, and he was fiddling with his morphine IV…

"Uh..60 more to go, I'd say that's progress in a bizzarro type way." Kensi said as she looked at the list.

"Bizzarro!"

"Yea he's superman's evil opposite. It's nothing really!" Kensi said still looking down at the paper.

"I know who he is, how do you?" Deeks questioned .

"My dad's comic book collection," Kensi told him.

"I've got my own- D.C. and Marvel….. so that's what's in the box on the top shelve of the closet… That you said if I moved or touched you would shoot me!"

"Yes and that is still in effect mister, so hands off…Understand!" Kensi glared at Deeks

Deeks looked at Kensi and pointed at her, as if he wanted to say something else but he changed his mind… "Alright then!" Deeks said as he started to fiddle with the pulse oximeter on his finger.

"Edward Cruz…" Kensi read as she got up from the chair. Deeks did not answer right away.

"…Ok what's up?"

"I got lazy… I didn't change my routine. I made myself an easy target." Deeks explained

"You know I change my routine every day, never drive the same way to work or home. Always security conscious.. Evan more now with baby Deeks on the way.."

"Impossible target, I get it.." He told her

"No all I'm saying is, it's hard you shouldn't beat yourself up. You had no way of knowing you were being targeted."

"Can't help it, it's one of the things I'm good at," Deeks let out a grunt as he sat up. "…Ooo! Some cop huh!"

"Marty- you're a great cop, a loving hubby, and going to be a great daddy. You can't let this bring you down."

"Kens all I had to was leave a little later, run a different route, or just stay home with you and baby Deeks and I wouldn't have gotten shot." Deeks said looking at his wife.

"You don't know that, and we can't change what happen. All we can do is figure out who shot you and why. So you can't sit there and say, if I had done this or done that things would have turned out differently." Kensi said as she took his hands in hers, lend forward and kissed him.

Hearing a knock on the door, they both looked up to see Nell standing there...
