When Kensi came out of the change rooms Callen was already sitting on a bench waiting for her. She knew he wanted to talk. She didn't want to but she also knew he wouldn't leave her alone if she didn't talk to him.
Kensi hesitated but walked over and slowly sat down her ribs searing with pain at her every movement.
'Who are they? And what do they have to do with you?' Callen started.
Kensi remained silent looking at her hands. Callen's patience was wearing thin.
'Why won't you just tell anyone?! Why do you have to keep it all in?' He snapped.
'Like you open up to everyone!' Kensi snapped back still looking at her hands.
'Kensi, we can't help you unless you tell us what's going on!' Callen said.
'I never asked for your help Callen.' She said coldly.
'You wouldn't ask even if you needed help Kensi, and you know it. Whatever's going on you need help, names and criminal records don't mean anything Kens because it doesn't tell the full story. The mug shots won't tell me what they have to with you. They don't explain why Jesse and his gang took you out in an alleyway. We're worried Kens, Deeks is going out of his mind, Sam's probably going to chain you to something and torture you for information soon.'
Kensi looked up at him. 'And what about you?'
'I'm going to shoot him.' He said.
Kensi laughed. 'You might all have these plans but he won't stop no matter what I tell you. He won't stop coming until he has what he wants forever.'
'What does he want Kens?' Callen asked.
She looked him dead in the eye, 'Me.'
Callen watched her silently a she sat next to him in ops. She filled out paperwork from a recent op her right hand clenched and her jaw set.
Callen looked over at Deeks and Sam who were watching her too although they hadn't been filled in on their earlier conversation.
Deeks mouthed 'What happened?' to Callen at the exact moment Kensi looked up.
'Nothing.' She snapped.
Sam raised his eyebrows at Callen as Kensi pushed back her chair mumbling something about a doughnut and coffee run.
'Want some company?' Deeks asked, not taking no for an answer and already making to follow her.
'Whatever.' She grabbed her keys and Deeks tailed her out to her car.
Kensi turned on the ignition and turned up her techno music. Deeks leaned forward and turned it down. He noticed her grip the wheel tighter than necessary and drive even faster and more reckless than usual.
'What's going on Fern?' Deeks used her nick name to try and break the ice. Her grip on the wheel loosened but she stayed silent speeding up to beat the red light and narrowly missing another car as she turned the corner to her favourite coffee shop.
Kensi stalked into the coffee shop and ordered her favourite doughnut along with four coffees.
Deeks grabbed the coffees and doughnut and they started back towards the car. The drive back was silent filled only with Kensi's techno music blasting louder than ever.
When they got out back at OPS Deeks put the coffee and doughnut on top of the car as Kensi opened her door and got out. He walked around to her and gripped her upper arm. She tensed slightly but let Deeks turn her around so they were facing each other. Kensi leant back against the car and waited for Deeks to say something.
'Kens, what's going on?'
Kensi folded her arms, 'Nothing.'
'No. It's not nothing. I get that this is personal to you but you're not going to lie to me. We're partners and we don't lie to each other.' Deeks said getting frustrated.
Kensi avoided looking at him and didn't answer.
'Kens, hey,' He tipped her chin up with his finger so she would look at him, 'Whatever you've done, whatever this guy has to do with you we aren't going to judge you.' He handed her, her doughnut and her coffee before winking at her and walking into the OPS with the rest of the coffees.
