Author's Note: Sooo sorry for the delay in getting this update posted. Please forgive me! That said, I have a feeling that this chapter will hopefully make up for the rather long wait as it is pure Densi fluff—something I think we, and the characters of the story, desperately need right now. I won't give anything away, but let me just say that I think the word 'Wow' will be mentioned a few times by many of you guys upon reading this little bit of juicy goodness.

In Darkness, Light
Chapter 10 (A Moment's Reprieve, Pt. 1)
Saturday Morning, 10:30 a.m. – Safe House
It seems like ages since they last saw each other, and now as she stands just outside the front door of the safe house, spending another minute without the man she loves seems too unbearable to even consider. Shaking with excitement and nervousness she stretches upwards on her tiptoes, and runs her hand over the space above the door frame until the cold metal of the spare key finally greets her fingertips. She grasps the key firmly between her fingers and then brings it down to insert it into the first keyhole, but then a sound from inside stops her.
There is a brief scrambling sound just inside, and then the front door opens and there he is staring back out at her. Their eyes meet, her sexy mismatched ones locking onto his gorgeous Pacific blues, and almost instantly heat begins to build between them like a bed of smoldering embers slowly being coaxed back into a roaring fire. No words are spoken by either of them, and yet there is a silent understanding that passes between them and it takes only a fraction of a second to happen. Kensi pushes her way into the house suddenly, snagging her lover by his wrist as she goes. The door falls shut behind them as they move quickly across the room making their way to someplace a little more private.
There are so many things that need to be said between them, but neither of them wants to address the darkness that awaits them there. Instead they both seek to escape from the pain and fear that has plagued their dreams for so many nights over the past two months, and for the moment finding solace in each other is all that matters.
They only make as far as the master bathroom before their progress becomes otherwise halted. Now sounds of desperation and desire fill the space, as the two lovers claw and nip at each other with such hunger as never before experienced by either of them. Deeks shrugs quickly out of his t-shirt and lets it drop to the floor, as Kensi slides out of her sandals and then peels away her own top layer. Then their lips meet once more in a deep, passion filled kiss that only serves to further fuel the already raging fires burning within their bodies.
Unwilling and unable to break herself away from Deeks' latest onslaught of fiercely, passionate kisses, Kensi lets her hands fall to her waist where she struggles to undo the tight denim jeans she's wearing. After a second or so she finally manages to unfasten the button snap and the zipper, and she's fairly certain that she's actually broken the button off with her hasty, shaky movements. As she wiggles her hips, loosening the pants so that they'll fall freely down her legs, her every thought is focused on only one thing—having Deeks inside of her where he belongs. She stops her own doings when she feels Deeks' hands move around behind her back loosening and then removing her bra. A needy breath escapes his lips as he tosses the aforementioned piece of clothing to the side, and then with a unique gentleness he cups her supple breasts in his palms as he brings his face down closer and closer to them until the feel of his breath against her bare skin makes her shudder all over.
"Deeks…Mmhmm, oh yes." she moans when she feels his lips close over her nipples, moving from right to left, and suckling gently on each before finally pulling back a bit to stare up into the mismatched eyes watching him as he works. It's truly amazing the way she feels right now, and it's almost even more amazing how this one guy, her guy, can make her this way.
"So beautiful." He murmurs, as he leans in and presses his lips to hers once again.
"Deeks…" she pants, breathlessly, between insanely intense kisses. "I want…n-need…You…inside me, Deeks…please." She pleads breathlessly as her hands wander downwards once more but this time seeking his jeans instead. He beats her to it though, and the sound of his belt striking the hard floor below elicits a whimper of anticipation from her.
He steps out of his jeans and boxers, and afterwards kicks both articles of clothing across the floor. Then Kensi follows suit and quickly disposes of her own bottoms before moving back into her lover's embrace. Both are completely naked now, and Kensi can barely keep her eyes off the wonderful sight of his throbbing erection greeting her as she gazes over the familiar muscular physique displayed before her. She swallows a hard lump as she raises her eyes up to his once more, pleading even more intensely than before to at last feel their bodies joined in that most special way designed as the ultimate expression of love between two people.
Deeks moves towards her, pushing her backwards against the bathroom's marble counter top, as his lips join with hers in another fierce onslaught of passion-filled kisses. His hands glide downwards over her soft curves, and finally come to rest around her hips, as he presses into her making her whimper with need once more.
The feel of his throbbing hardness pressing up against her own steamy wetness makes her cry out his name in desperation, and as she reaches back with one hand to steady herself against the bathroom counter she feels something soft and fabric-like. Glancing back over her shoulder she finds a towel, folded in half and spread out over the area of the counter directly behind her, and she realizes that he must have put it there earlier so that she would be comfortable.
The realization makes her eyes water and her chest swell with unspoken emotions as she raises her eyes back up to his with a look of wonder displayed within their mismatched depths. Even in the heat of the most primal of acts Deeks still puts her needs above his own, and that knowledge makes her heart melt with love.
"I'm ready." She whispers against her lover's lips.
She feels his hands gripping her hips firmly, as he lifts her up and sets her down against the counter top. There she holds herself up on her hands as he gently eases himself inside burying himself deep within her tender, wet folds. "Ohh…Uugghh." A shudder ripples through her as he fills her so perfectly, and she instinctively wraps her legs around his waist inviting him in ever deeper. She then bites down on her lower lip as she waits for her body to adjust to his size.
"Its been too long, princess…You feel so good." He whispers as he lovingly nuzzles his nose against hers. Kensi lifts her lips and presses a tender kiss against his as he continues to speak. "Love you soo much." His voice is heavy and thick with emotion now.
Kensi presses one last kiss to his lips. "Show me." She says in a quiet, insistent manner.
Deeks re-angles his body as to allow for maximum penetration and then begins moving within her, slowly at first, but then gradually quickening the pace until the wildly erotic sounds of flesh slapping against flesh dominate all others in the small space. Her fingernails dig into the soft flesh of his back and shoulders as she moans and whimpers against the intense sensations of pleasure created by the friction being generated between their two bodies. All the while the coil deep within her core slowly twists and tightens, as she grows nearer and nearer to her inevitable finish.
"Marty, I-" her words are cut short as the tightly wound coil within her suddenly explodes, and her release overwhelms her. She throws her head back, crying out his name, as wave after wave of sheer ecstasy washes over her, and explosions of pure light cloud her vision forcing her to squeeze her eyes shut while she rides out the shockwaves of her climax.
Feeling her muscles convulsing around him is enough to finally send Deeks tumbling over the edge too, spilling himself into her, and groaning out her name as he buries his face in her chest. It takes every ounce of strength left in him to keep the two of them propped upright as his release threatens to shatter his very foundations.
"Marty." She whispers finally, after their bodies have had time to come down and their vitals begin to return to normal. Her heart swells with an abundance of love for the shaggy-haired man, and it makes her realize just how much she needs him in her life and how important it is that he knows it too.
Deeks lifts his head to look into her eyes, a little bit surprised that she would call him by his first name. She's never done that before, hell, no one has to be honest; but somehow hearing her say it out loud now feels right. There's something new in her eyes, he notices, as if something in her has changed in just the last little while. What he sees there is brilliant, warm and inviting, and he feels as if he's suddenly able to see right through into her heart. "You called me…Marty." He states, his words barely forming as he struggles to clear the fog from his brain.
"That's your name isn't it?" she replies, still looking into his eyes with a sort of loving warmth that stretches from ear to ear. It feels good to finally use his first name instead of always calling him by his last name. In a way it really signifies just how much her heart has opened up, and how much trust she's put in him.
"Well, yeah. I suppose it is." He replies, giving her his usual lopsided grin. He leans forward and presses a kiss to her luscious lips before pulling back slightly to look at her once more.
"Have I ever told you…just how much I love you?" She says sweetly, as she returns his kiss with a tender kiss of her own.
A smile graces the lips of the shaggy-haired man as he stares lovingly back at his girl, and a lone tear slides down over his cheek as his emotions well up within him. To actually hear her voicing how she feels about him is unreal to be honest, and it makes him feel really really good inside. After all, he's never really heard those words from anyone else in his life. Now, however, his heart thunders in his chest with an unfathomable love for the beautiful woman who currently has herself wrapped around his own body, and he wants nothing more than to hold onto her there forever and never let her go.
"Oh, but Fern…I love you more." He replies in a quiet voice, grinning against her lips as he steals yet another kiss.
"Doubt it." Kensi giggles and the sound is so uncharacteristic of the female federal agent he first fell head over heels in love with that he can't help the small fit of laughter that suddenly erupts from within him.
It's nearly two o'clock in the afternoon as Kensi sidles into the kitchen, freshly showered, and wearing nothing but her panties and one of Deeks' t-shirts. The two have gone several rounds together since her arrival earlier in the morning, and they're only stopping now because their stomachs, empty and deprived, have begun to protest.
Deeks should be getting out of the shower any time now, and she's hoping to surprise him with some food. A smile graces her lips as she removes a large non-stick skillet from the cabinet underneath the counter, and sets it on top of the front, right eye on the stove.
Won't he be surprised when he sees me cooking? She thinks to herself as she turns on the eye to begin heating the pan.
Kensi then moves to the refrigerator from which she quickly produces a carton of eggs, a fresh pack of bacon, and the bottle of freshly squeezed orange juice. Its just too bad there's not a box of donuts lying around, as that would definitely be like the frosting on the cake as far as she's concerned.
Deeks enters the kitchen some time later dressed in a pair of pajama bottoms, and pulling a fresh t-shirt over his head as he walks. The mouthwatering aromas wafting about the room instantly fill his nose then, and he stops momentarily to take in a huge whiff of what smells like breakfast and freshly brewed coffee. He quietly savors the delicious smells with eyes closed, as his tongue wanders hungrily over his lips.
"Oh God, that smells so good." He says, practically drooling over how good the kitchen smells. He opens his eyes finally, and sees Kensi standing at the stove shuffling eggs from the pan onto two nearby plates. A smile crosses his lips at the scene displayed before him, and as she apparently hasn't noticed his entrance he decides to sneak up behind her.
Kensi smiles real big as she feels a pair of familiar hands cupping her firm buttocks from behind. "You must have a thing for my ass." She quips, as she lays several more strips of bacon across the wide skillet in front of her.
"Why do you say that?" he asks, as if he has no clue what she means.
"No reason." She replies, with a grin she knows he can't see. "Except you can't seem to keep your hands off of it." She adds smartly. She can feel him as he shrugs his shoulders behind her.
He then gives her buttocks a light squeeze, and listens as Kensi murmurs his name quietly in response. She closes her eyes, biting down on her lower lip, and leans back into him savoring the feel of his touch.
"You have such a nice ass, Fern. I can't help it if I like how it feels." He whispers softly in her ear. "You should try it sometime." He adds, letting his lips slide gently over the patch of skin next to her ear.
A small shudder runs through her at the feel of his lips, and once again she can't help the tiny giggle that escapes her own lips. "Turn around sometime, and I just might take you up on that offer." She replies.
"That so?"
She nods in answer, and then begins to pull away from the shaggy-haired man.
"What? What'd I do?" he asks, worried he's done something wrong.
"Nothing." She replies as she turns her attention back to the sizzling sound of bacon nearing complete doneness in the skillet before her. "I'm trying to cook, and I can't focus properly with you back there playing with my stuff." She tells him, her tone light and playful as she speaks.
Deeks begins to move away slightly, bringing himself slowly into her line of sight. "But I love your stuff." He protests, wiggling his eyebrows playfully at his gorgeous girl.
"Clearly." She deadpans, before shooing him away with a gesture of her spatula-wielding hand. "Now go sit down." She tells him, pointing towards the breakfast table setting in the space between the kitchen and the living room. "Breakfast'll be ready in a bit."
"Fine." He mock pouts as he shuffles away. "But just so you know—breakfast? Really? Kensi it's after two o'clock. We should've had lunch by now." He remarks, turning around to face her as he backs slowly out of the kitchen. "Although, I guess the more disturbing thing here is that you are cooking, and oddly enough I'm okay with that."
"I've been practicing." She tells him with a smile.
"I'll say." He replies, with that trademark lopsided grin that he knows she loves so much. "It smells wonderful." He adds, with a wink.
"Just wait." She replies, as she begins to slip a few more pieces of yummy bacon into the hot skillet. "It tastes even better."
"Oh I don't doubt it, princess." He replies, just before he nearly trips over backwards over his own two feet.
Kensi chuckles to herself as she watches him straighten up, and continue towards the breakfast table. All of the darkness of the past two months seems just a little bit farther away now, and she wishes like hell that it would just go away completely. However, the knowledge that come Monday they'll both have to part ways once more still lingers in the back of her mind. So she plans to spend every minute of this one weekend with the one best thing in her life, besides her Mom that is, and hopefully make some wonderful memories that she knows she'll need if she is to survive even one more night with that monster—Diego Espinoza.
