For the prompt: "So, how should we break the news that they're going to have a new baby brother or sister?"


Kensi sigh and snuggled against Deeks chest, resting her hand on his shoulder. Their skin was still a little sweaty and Deeks' heartbeat was a little faster than normal. She grinned into his chest.

"Stop being so smug," he said, ever so slightly breathless.

"I'm just glad that I can still get this response out of you. All my girlfriends swear it's just not the same after you have kids," she explained.

"I don't think I'm ever going to stop feeling this way about you. How could I?" He leaned in and kissed her for several moments.

"Mm, thank god for that."

"Now if only the kids would cooperate," Deeks sighed. "I swear they have some kind of radar that signals when we're about to have sex." In the last few weeks every time they'd had a few minutes to themselves it seemed like they were interrupted by a fight, monsters under the bed, or frequent requests for water.

"That reminds me," Kensi started in a would-be casual tone. "How should we break the news that they're going to have a new baby brother or sister?" She waited, keeping her face turned into his chest. She felt the exact moment when his mind caught up with her words. She heard his breath catch and then he whispered,

"We're pregnant again?" She nodded, finally taking a peek at his face. He looked slightly stunned which she figured was a fair response given the lack of warning.

"What are you thinking?"

"That having three kids is going to be absolutely insane and we're crazy for even attempting it," he paused and then smiled gently. "And I absolutely cannot wait."

"Me too," Kensi agreed, wrapping her arms tightly around his neck.

"Maybe he or she will have your hair this time," Deeks said eagerly, his eyes slightly distant as though he was picturing a tiny brunette. Kensi shrugged.

"I don't know, I wouldn't mind having a little brood of blondes."

"Either way, they'll be perfect. Just like the other two ragamuffins."

"I love you so much," Kensi said fervently, reaching for him. She hooked a leg around his hip and he raised an eyebrow at her. "What, it's not like I can get more pregnant." He laughed, rolling her onto her back, bracing himself on his forearms as he hovered over her.

"That sounds like a challenge, Mrs. Deeks," he murmured.

"Take it however you like, Mr. Deeks."
