Started a rewatch and now these are coming out of nowhere.
She's sitting on the couch reading, taking in a relaxing Saturday afternoon. Her babies are asleep, well her big baby and their baby. She usually joins her husband for an afternoon snuggle sesh but today she's in the mood for some light reading and their cozy couch.
Her eyes follow the words across the page that slowly enrapture her so much so that its 20 minutes later and she's four chapters in. Just as she finishes the last word of the current chapter her eyes move from her book to the movement behind it.
A lazy smile graces his face as he walks down the hall ruffling his shaggy locks and meets her eyes. He comes up to the back of the couch bending over, placing his lips to hers. "Good book?"
She watches as he makes his way over to kitchen steping behind the island and opens the fridge. One of the first things they fell in love with with this house is the open floor plan. "Very. You didn't sleep long."
"I couldn't, my snuggle buddy wasn't in bed with me."
She huffs a laugh, shaking her head. "You're so whipped."
"My Kinky Kens wants whips? We can get whips."
He's across the room but she can see the wheels turning in his head from a mile away. "Haha. No."
Kensi's attention turns from her husband towards the sound of little feet hitting the hard wood floor. She's leaning just far enough to be able to see down the hallway and the little brunette coming towards the living room with something in her hand. "Let me see what you have."
"A knife!" The little girl shouts exuberantly.
"Nooo!" Kensi throws her book haphazardly across the room as she jumps up and runs towards her little girl who has somehow found her antique makeup brush that doubles as a blade.
Having turned to re-examine the contents of the freezer, Deeks quickly runs back into the living room when he hears the word knife and his wife yelling no. Where on earth would she get a knife from?
He watches as the taller brunette corners her mini me and is able to coax the sharp object out of her hand before any damage is done.
Kensi swoops down picking their little girl up and handing the brush off to her husband. His wide eyes mirroring hers.
"I guess ninja assassin was more accurate than baby wolf."
"ARH-WOOOOOOOOO"
The husband and wife duo turn towards one another laughing as Athena begins howling like the animal she was just referred to as.
"Does the puppy want a snack?" Deeks runs his fingers through her fine brunette hair, scratching her scalp like she's a dog.
Athena's eyes light up at the mention of food, her mother's daughter and begins barking.
"Babe, reallly?" Kensi scolds her husband for already getting her their girl riled up.
"What? She started it."
"Actually you started it."
Deeks shrugs, logistics. "Potato, Patato."
Kensi carries the little girl towards the bar stool, her husband trailing behind them. "What do want to eat, sweetie?"
Athena throws her fist in the air emphasizing her decision. "Potato!"
Never a dull morment.
