AN: So I've been moving and technically my internet is illegal.
So I'm at school.

Oh, I forgot to mention, when Kensi was typing in the last chapter, the wrong words and any spellings mistakes were supposed to be there.

PREVIOUSLY:

"Amy... She's here... She asked me to ask you if she could come and see you."

'Deeks... I hope you didn't promise her anything... I haven't seen her since she was a baby, I couldn't deal with this whole open thing, being able to drop in and out when I please... I gave up on that when she was 1, Deeks... I don't know if I can'

"I understand if you can't" He was cut off by Kensi putting her arm up and starting to type again.

'I say I don't know if I can, but even if I can't, I need to'

"I'll go get her"

"Wait" Her raspy voice said.

'The doctor is taking this thing out of my mouth in a few hours, I'll be able to talk then, can we wait?'

"Of course" He smiled and took her hand.


Deeks sat beside Kensi's bed, holding her hand as she looked up at the doctor who was stood flicking through her chart.

"Okay, Ms-"

"Agent" Deeks cut in.

"Agent Blye" the doctor corrected himself and cleared his throat. "Your vitals seem fine, and you're doing well breathing on your own, I think we can remove your breathing tube now"

Kensi sighed in relief and moved her hand around in Deeks' grip and smiled as best as she could with the tube protruding her mouth.

"Mr-"

"Detective" Deeks corrected him, again.

"Detective" the doctor corrected harsher than before. "You will need to let go of Agent Blyes hand for this to work."

Kensi looked up and down at Deeks before removing her hand from his grip, grabbing the sheets in attempt to replace the warmth and comfort.

"I'll go get Amy" Deeks smiled, pushing some of her now very short hair away from her face.

She smiled gratefully at him.

Deeks exited the room and walked down the hallway, he knew everybody but Nell had gone home, she said she would go home as soon as he came and took Amy, but he highly doubted that. It took a few minutes but he finally got to where they were sat – they had been moved away from the emergency corridor ever since Kensi woke up, so now the endless hall ways were even longer, and actually felt endless.

He walked over to where they had sat and gently poked Nell and the young girl awake. "You should go home now Nell, get some rest in your bed, where you won't get a bad back" He smiled as she woke up.

"Deeks… Her tube is out?" Nell asked, running her eyes as she lightly shook Amy, who hadn't responded to Deeks' poke, awake.

"Nell?" The girl murmured as she moved around, not wanting to wake up.

"Yes, and Deeks" She said soothingly.

"Deeks?" The girls eyes shot open and she yawned, sitting up. "Can I see her?"

"In a few minutes, they're just taking out her breathing tube" He smiled, putting his hand out to the girl.

"What if she doesn't like me?" Amy asked.

"She's you mommy, and you're just like her, she'll like you" Deeks smile twitched wider as the small girl took his hand.

"Bell, go home, get some rest, She'll still be here later."

"Says you" She pointed out the fact he hadn't left again.

"But I have that comfortable couch in Kensi's room to sleep on." He fought.

"Like you've even touched that couch" She laughed.

"That's enough" He said sternly. "Home, now"

Nell tried to hold back some laughter as she stood up. "What're you, my dad?"

"No. Your friend, you friend who sees you need sleep."

"Okay" Nell sighed as she bent down to the girl and gave her a hug. "Bye guys."

"Bye Nell" Amy waved.

'She's nine years old, you have to remember that. She may seem more sophisticated sometimes, but she is still nine years old, a little girl, still a baby. Just take this slow, if this goes south, go after her' Deeks told himself.

He held the girls hand as they walked down the corridor, passing the same patients he passed on his first trip down this hall. The same nurses giving him apologetic smiled, they seemed 10x more pity-fileld now he had a child with him, they didn't understand though, he didn't need pity. Kensi was fine. He didn't want pity. She was fine.

Fine.

And she was staying that way.

After a few minutes of walking he noticed Amy had come to a stop. He turned around and knelt down, looking at her blank face.

She was holding a locket that was around her face, he hadn't noticed it before under the grey dress.

"Amy?" He asked. "Is everything okay?"

She shook her head.

"What's up?"

"Hannah" She said.

"Hannah? Hannah who?"

"Duhamel"

"Who's Hannah Duhamel?"

"My friend. She came here before, I recognise those pictures on the hall, this is where they brought her." Amy teared up. "She came here and never came back."

It hit Deeks, the girl recognised this place as the place where her friend died, he pitied the girl and pulled her into a hug.

"It's okay Sweetie" He held the shaking girl. "We're going to go see your mommy, and later maybe we can pay respects to Hannah"

Amy nodded and grabbed his hand again as he stood up, wiping her face with her white sleeve (the shirt under the dress) and tucked the locket back in. Walking with him in the direction of the room she was in.

He opened the door slowly, sticking his head in first to see if the doctor was finished.

He was, in fact he was so finished, that he wasn't even in the room. Deeks smiled at Kensi who looked dover to the door and he pushed it open slowly, walking in with the girl trailing behind him.

Scratch that.

Hiding behind him.

Kensi looked confused as he got closer; he had already felt the girl holding onto the back of his shirt.

"Amy… This is you mom" He spoke up.

Amy looked around Deeks and smiled at the sight of Kensi. It was almost as if she recognised her.

Impossible, she was one when they last met.

Kensi held back tears as her daughter moved out from behind Deeks, and it hit her, this was her daughter, the one she abandoned 8 years ago because she was too scared.

Her baby girl.

Her big girl.

Kensi Didn't know what to say, so instead she just raised her hand and waved.

Amy waved back and stuck her arm back into the neck of her dress, pulling out the silver oval locket with a 'K' engraved on it.

Kensi dropped.

Her arms went limp as she looked at the girl, holding the locker her mother had given her, the locket she gave to Amy the day she left.

She still had it, and she still wore it.

"They gave you it" Kensi said weakly.

"When I was 5" Amy said. "They told my mommy gave it to me when I was little, but I was too little to wear it when she gave it to me." She was almost whispering.

"Does it still have the picture in?" Kensi asked.

Amy nodded. "I added another picture though"

"Of who?" Kensi asked, sitting up straight as the girl walked closer and climbed on the edge of the bed, pulling the locket apart.

Deeks watched from a distance, he knew they both needed to be only with each other, but also knew they couldn't be left alone.

"My friend, Hannah, She was here once, now she is with the angels" Amy pointed at a picture of her and a blonde haired girl, they looked about 7.

Kensi shot a look at the other picture in the locket, it was her with Amy in her lap, when Amy was only 6 months old.

"Hannah is Very pretty" Kensi said, putting her hand on Amy's head and smoothing it all the way down her hair. "And so are you."

"Are you okay?" Amy asked her.

"I'm fine."

"I heard them in the place with the computers; I heard that my daddy hurt you."

"He did… But he's gone now"

"With the Angels?"

Kensi bit her lip. "No exactly, only nice people go to the angels"

"Then why did he live here in Los Angeles if he wasn't nice. Angeles has Angel in it" The girl questioned.

Kensi couldn't answer her, but she was surprised at the knowledge this little girl held.

"Deeks found me, and Callen watched me, then Nell did, they're all very nice, But I s'pose I have to go back to the shelter now I've seen you." Amy looked at her mother before hugging her.

Kensi ignored the pain and managed to bite back a yelp as the girl hugged her; Deeks saw the pain in her face and winced slightly. But saw she was dealing with it, putting her arms around the girl.

It broke Kensi's heart, but she had to send Amy back, she can't care for her, she doesn't have that mothering ability, plus, Amy seemed to be doing well, and that's all she wanted to know.

She could see Deeks broke at the words, he had obviously also become attached to the girl. But he knew she would have to go back.

"I'm sorry" Kensi said. "Yes, you have to go back."

Kensi started crying at her own words, but she released the girl.

"You have nothing to be sorry about mommy. Nothing at all. I'm happy where I am."

"And I am too" Kensi said, looking at Deeks. "More than happy."
