Hi - Just a little post-ep for "The Silo" to get me moving again. Hope you enjoy.
"You're my world"
They stood there wrapped tightly in each other's arms, emotions swirling around them.
Love
Anger
Gratitude
Frustration
Pain
Relief
Love
It always came back to Love.
Kensi was the first to move. She leaned back and looked into his eyes. She saw the storm and it wasn't just about what had happened today. It was a culmination of Sidorov, Syria, Internal Affairs, Whiting, Ferris, Michelle's death, Hetty, Moseley and Kensi. She knows he was about at the end of his rope. He can see a life without badges and guns. He also knows she is not quite there yet, but, God, she is starting to see the pathway there.
She is brought out of her thoughts by his voice. "Kens, we don't have to decide anything right this minute, but did I hear you right?"
Kensi looks down but then right back into his eyes. "Yeah, I think I might be ready to think about a Plan B for us. I had to lie to Kevin Miller's sister. I said that I had a baby to connect with her but the thing was, I found myself wishing I did. In the past, I've told that lie hundreds of times. But ever since the case we were on a couple of years ago with the triplets and then my accident but most importantly because of you, I. . . ." She looked down, trying to keep her tears from spilling over.
Deeks pulled her closer. "Shh. Baby, please don't cry. We're both exhausted. Let's go home, crawl into bed and get some sleep. I'm sorry that I upset you. We have time and as long as we keep talking, we'll be fine. I love you to the moon and back. You're my everything and nothing is going to change that."
Kensi kissed Deeks and hugged him tight again. He was her world and together they would figure out what's next.
They always did.
