Prompt from hermionesmydawg - Deeks leaves the team for NCIS agent training
"I hate that you'll be gone, but I'm glad that you're doing this."
"Me, too. It's about time."
"I can't believe Hetty gave you those papers and you didn't say anything to me about it."
"I had to think about it."
"That was almost four years ago, Deeks."
"Yeah, time flies when you're having fun. And by fun, I mean getting shot at by bad guys, saving the world, looking good while doing it."
Kensi smiled and shook her head.
"What made you decide to finally take the plunge?"
"Well... honestly, here at NCIS... it's the first time in a long time that I've felt like I belong somewhere. Like I have a family. I think it's time I made it official."
She blinked rapidly, trying to hide any sign of emotion in her face. "I'm going to miss you."
"Really? I'm going to miss you, too. Don't get a new partner while I'm gone."
She took a few steps towards him. Placing one hand on his face, she leaned up and kissed him gently on the cheek. She looked him in his perfect blue eyes, amused by the shocked expression on his face.
"Never. You've ruined me for all other partners, you know?"
"Wow. If I knew you'd be this nice to me, I would have signed those papers a long time ago."
"Don't get used to it, Deeks."
"I think I'll start making you call me Agent Deeks from now on. Just plain Deeks... that's not going to cut it anymore."
"Are you annoying me on purpose so I won't be sad that you're leaving?"
He smiled at her and pulled her in for a hug. "Don't worry, Fern. I'll be back."
