Kensi was quiet the whole ride to the safehouse. Julia had tried to get her to engage in conversation, but it was obvious she didn't want to. They showed up to the safehouse and shared hugs all around.

"Kensi, baby, are you okay?" Roberta asked gently.

"Fine," Kensi replied, still not wanting to talk.

"I think she just needs time, Mama," Deeks said gently. Kensi nodded a little and leaned into Deeks.

"I got you, baby," he murmured. Kensi sniffled and began to cry a bit. "Oh, honey, come here," he whispered. Soon, Kensi was on Deeks's lap on the ground, and Julia and Roberta were sitting next to them, all trying to comfort Kensi. "Baby, it's over. You're safe. I got you," he murmured.

"I was so scared," she admitted quietly.

"I'm sure you were, baby. But it's over, and you're okay now. You're safe," Deeks whispered.

Callen and Sam drove back to the mission in silence. After thirty minutes, Callen broke the silence.

"Kensi's going to be okay," he said quietly. Sam wasn't sure if it was a statement or a question, but he decided to answer.

"Of course she will be. That's her thing. It'll take time, though. I can't imagine how scared she had to have been, being trapped in that bathroom," he said quietly.

"Fatima too. They're tough, but it still had to have been terrifying," Callen said quietly.

Fatima leaned against the wall and sniffled. "I, um, I may have a few drinks tonight, if you want to join me," she said quietly. Devin looked over and raised an eyebrow.

"You never drink on work nights," he pointed out. He noticed a tear escape Fatima's eyes and immediately softened. "Hey, hey, hey, it's okay. It's over. He's not going to hurt you, or Kens, or anyone else ever again, I promise you," he whispered. He pulled her into another hug, meeting no resistance. Fatima began to genuinely cry as Devin caressed her back.

"I was so scared he was gonna rape us," she sobbed. Devin softened and kissed the top of her head.

"Hey, it's okay. You're safe, Kensi is safe, Julia is safe. Everyone is okay," he murmured. Fatima sniffled.

"Um, would you, maybe, want to...Would you want to spend the night at my place? Or could I spend the night at yours? Please?" she asked.

"Absolutely. Whichever you want," he said gently. Fatima sniffled.

"You know I'm not asking for sex or anything like that, right? Just snuggles," she said quietly. Rountree pulled back and stared at her.

"Of course I understand that, Fatima. And it makes me sick that you feel the need to clarify that. Who hurt you?" he replied.

"It's not important. He didn't hurt me. He just got mad," she said, looking away.

"Okay. I believe you. But hey, that's still not right. I don't expect sex or anything like that from you, because you're my girlfriend. Not my property, or any of that bullshit. You're my girlfriend, and I fell in love with you, not your body," he said firmly. Fatima smiled and hugged him gently.

"I love you," she whispered. Devin beamed,

"That's the first time you've ever said that to me. I love you too, Fatima," he said gently. Fatima smiled and pressed a kiss to his lips. They ended up staying in a half-hug until the coroner showed up.

A/N: You didn't think I could do this without adding a Fountree scene, did you? I mean, it's in my name and all ;)
