Chapter 14 - A Talk
Author's Note -
Hi Everyone,
I am sorry I have not updated in a really long time, but my grandpa was in the hospital because he had four strokes. Then, the week before my cousin was in the hospital. Weird having two relatives in the hospital. Once again I apologize for the lateness.
Sincerely,

Ramira woke up in a bed that she didn't recognize. She slipped out of the bed and glanced around her. She was scared until she remembered she was at her daddy's home.
She tiptoed towards what she figured would be the living room.
She smiled at the sight she saw on the couch.
She saw her mom and dad sleeping on the black couch in the makeshift living room.
She turned away so that her parents could sleep peacefully, and walked quietly back to her bed so she could sleep.
A few minutes later Kensi woke up, where she immediately realized she shouldn't be - on top of one G Callen.
"Crap!", Kensi thought angrily, as she tried to remember what happened last night.
Kensi's Flashback -
Kensi woke up in a soft bed that was not her own.
She laid awake for what felt like hours, but what was really only a few minutes.
She knew why she couldn't go back to sleep, but she didn't really want to think about it.
Finally she decided to go on and talk to G.
She walked thru the doorway, catching a quick glance at the dented cream door.
She saw G who was sitting at the island in the middle of the kitchen, sipping a cup of coffee.
"G?", she said softly as she walked towards him.
"Hey Kensi, couldn't sleep?", he asked gently.
"I wanted to talk to you.", she said as she sat across from him on the other wooden barstool.
"What about?", he said as he took another sip of his coffee. "Would you like some coffee?"
"No thanks. Why are you letting us stay here?"
"I see that this is going to be a long conversation. Let's go sit on the couch where it's more comfortable.", Callen said as he stood up and walked over to the couch.
Kensi hesitated before she followed him slowly.
She sat down next to him.
G sighed and then spoke, "I told you, I want to spend more time with Ramira."
"You can spend time with her without letting us stay here. I left California because I was scared, not because I wanted to pretend you didn't exist. I want her to feel like she has a father. You don't have to let us stay here, you'll still get to see her. I mean, why would you even want me here? You should hate me, I took your child away from you! You know you don't want me here, I'm the idiot who just had to bed her mother!", Kensi said furiously.
"No Kensi, I do want you here! I definitely do not hate you! I care Kensi, I really do, not just about Ramira, but about you too!"
Kensi broke down at that and cried. "I'm sorry G! I wish I wouldn't have been so afraid. It's all my fault, I.", Kensi had started, but was cut off by G's comforting hug.
"It's okay sweetheart. It's not your fault. You don't need to be scared anymore, I'm going to be here for both of you now."
Eventually they fell asleep on the couch, with her on top of him. Her arms wrapped around his neck, his around her waist.
End of Kensi's Flashback -
Kensi knew that she should climb off of him, try to pretend that nothing ever happened.
But Kensi stayed on top of him.
She even found herself staring at one of the five ugly scars that marked his handsome chest.
She got lost into the memory of him getting shot, until G tapped her on the arm.
"Good Morning Kensi."
"Morning, I'm gonna grab a quick shower.", Kensi said as she hopped off of him and practically ran towards the bathroom.
"I am really doing a great job of this whole not scaring her thing! I am horrifying her! I guess I have to try harder.", G said under his breath.
