Chapter 10

Hey guys, thanks for the awesome reviews. Glad most of you like the latest chapter. Keep the reviews coming. I love to read them and get your thoughts!

Callen and Deeks sat mostly silent on the way to the beach.

They arrived shortly after and Deeks got out of the car and walked down to the beach. Callen sat in the car for a few seconds watching Deeks make his way down to the beach, taking a seat in the sand.

Callen drew a breath and walked over to Deeks taking a seat next to him.

"I thought you were going to take me to an alley and give me a beating." Said Callen as he sat down next to Deeks

Deeks chuckled. "The thought had crossed my mind" he said as he starred out into the ocean.

Callen smiled. "So Kensi told you."

"Yeah, she did, didn't do anything to soften the blow either, just came right out and said it."

"Typical Kensi" they said at the same time. The both smiled and chuckled.

"Look I know you have feelings for Kensi and I know that she feels something for you too Deeks. I'm not blind. But I care for Kensi and I want to see where it leads you know. Believe me I didn't expect this to happen."

"Really?" Replied Deeks

"Yeah. I mean everyone sees the way you two flirt. If anything I thought she would end up with you not me."

"So, what's the moral of this story? Not to underestimate the underdog."

Callen laughed. "I guess it is."

"Seriously thought Deeks, you brought me out here to talk, so let's do it. Get it off your chest."

Deeks turned to Callen "Look Callen. Yeah I've had feelings for Kensi for a long time, but I also know that nothing will ever happen with them. We're work partners, that's it. She chose you. You know if Kensi's happy then I'm happy and yeah I wish that she could have been happy with me. I wish that I was in your position but I'm not and I just need to accept it."

"Here I thought you were bringing me out here to give me the "don't hurt her speech."

Deeks chuckled. "Really come on this is Kensi we're talking about, we both know Kensi would hurt you just as bad as you hurt her."

Callen laughed. "That's true."

"In all seriousness though, you've got her now. Do me a favour don't hurt her, otherwise I will have to bring you back down her except this time it will be to give you a beating and you don't want that because you know it would be embarrassing for you and…."

Before Deeks could continue Callen cut him off. "Message received Deeks. Loud and clear."

"Well alright." Callen, have you told Hetty yet?"

"Hetty, yeah that's going to be a conversation that I'm going in armed and with backup."

Deeks chuckled. "I think she already knows something's going on with you guys anyway."

"Deeks I know Hetty knows things before we tell her. I know you refer to her as the master of the universe but I doubt she knows. I've done nothing to alert her to that fact that Kensi and I are together."

"Yeah you maybe not, but Kensi definitely."

"Wait, stop what do you mean?"

"When you were Russia and you had just been shot by Ohatna. Kensi heard it over the live feed in OPS. She thought you were dead. She ran out of OPS into the burn room. I tried to follow her but Hetty said she would handle it."

"Kensi didn't say anything."

"Well she's not exactly the most emotional person."

"True, but Deeks, that doesn't mean…"

"Callen, its Hetty, she knows, you and Kensi need to tell her."

"We will Deeks."

"Do it sooner than later."

"Plus how is this going to affect the team, when we're out in the field."

"It's not going to affect anything Deeks."

"You say that now Callen, but…"

"Deeks, it won't affect anything, we're both professionals, it'll be fine."

"Alright, don't say I didn't warn you. Come on I better get you back to Kensi, she's gonna be wondering where you are."

"We don't track each other's movements Deeks."

"Yeah, not yet but you're in a relationship with Kensi, it's only a matter time before she's got you tagged with GPS. Trust me I know I'm her partner.

Callen chuckled as they walked back to the car. "Where am I dropping you?"

"Back to mine." Said Callen

"Hey Deeks"

"Yeah"

"Thanks for the talk." I know it's hard for you but I'm glad we had this talk."

"Yeah me too. Come on."

Deeks dropped Callen home. Callen pulled out his phone and called Kensi.

"Hey, I rang the FBI to find out when you'd be finished with the debriefing, but they said that you finished and hour ago."

"Wow" he thought Deeks was right about tracking each other's movements. "Yeah, sorry, Deeks was waiting for me, he wanted he to talk."

"Deeks wanted to talk to you?"

"Yeah about us."

"Wow, I would have thought he would have wanted to beat you down." She said with a smile.

"I think the thought crossed his mind. But it was fine, he gave us his blessing"

"Really he did?"

"You sound surprised. I just thought he would have given you the "You hurt her speech, I'll hurt you speech."

"Oh he did, he also gave me the "You hurt Kensi, she is going to hurt me just as bad as I hurt her" speech.

Kensi laughed. "Well Deeks knows me pretty well"

"Yes he does, and he also told me that we need to tell Hetty."

"Yeah I know he told me the same thing."

"Alright, let's just get it done. Tomorrow morning."

"Alright tomorrow morning. Bye Kens"

"Bye.

Cut to tomorrow morning

Kensi and Callen had arrived in early hoping to talk to Hetty before a case drew their attention away.

They spotted Hetty sitting in her office, drinking her tea. They looked each other and walked up to her.

"Morning Hetty" said Callen.

"Morning Mr Callen, Ms Blye. Something I can help you with?"

"Actually yes. We need to talk, it's fairly urgent."

"This is about the two of you and the relationship you are currently in." She said as he looked a Callen and Kensi

"Yes". How long have you known. Said Callen

"Well Mr Callen I'm not blind and the way that Ms Blye reacted to you getting shot whilst in Russia confirmed it. Well Mr Callen you know the regulations about inter-office relationships."

"Yes, however, Hetty we have not allowed our relationship to compromise our work and we won't let it."

"Mr Callen, Ms Blye. I would normally have one of you re-assigned, however knowing you both as I do and trusting your judgement. I believe that you will be able your personal life out of the office, but the moment it affects any part of any operations I will not hesitate to re-assign one or both of you. That being said congratulations Mr Callen, Ms Blye" she said with a smile.

Kensi and Callen both smiled as they turned to exit Hetty office.

"Mr Callen, a word." Said Hetty as they were leaving.

"Yes Hetty" Hetty didn't respond.

"You're shocked"

"No, actually Mr Callen I think Ms Blye will be good for you. However if you hurt Ms Blye I will come for you."

Callen chuckled. "Noted Hetty."

"Now, go, go."

Hetty smiled. She was happy that Callen had finally found someone.
