About an hour later, kensi and Deeks headed back over to Ray and Jenna's hand in hand.
"Are you ready for this mission," Deeks have her a crooked grin.
"As ready as I'll ever be," she paused. "Actually, I'm surprisingly looking forward to it."
"Really?" Deeks' heart raced a little faster hoping this little trip made Kensi realize she was so much more then their job. He was quite excited to force her to go to Disney World as well, hoping he had softened her over the years and she would actually enjoy herself.
The excitement in Jenna's eyes as the couple entered, made Kensi smile.
"I will take her." Kensi walked over to Cali. The toddler immediately reached out and crawled into Kensi's awaiting arms.
Deeks heart wanted to explode watching Kensi's motherly instincts come alive before his eyes.
"Aunt Kensi, Uncle Marty!" Little Mary cane running down the stairs. "Im ready for our sleep over. See my pajamas are already on and my teeth are brushed."
"You did good," Deeks patted his best friends back. "Now go have fun with your lady."
With that they were out the door in a flash, leaving Kensi and Deeks to handle the kids.
Deeks popped some popcorn and set up a kid friendly movie. "In honor of Disney World tomorrow, we will watch Dumbo. What's better than a flying elephant."
"Oh Aunt Kensi, can you ride with Cali and Uncle Marty ride with me."
Cali clapped her hands with excitement as Kensi looked at Deeks in horror.
"Come on Princess, you can do it," Deeks assured her.
"That sounds like fun," she lied.
"It will be!" The little boy's excitement could not be contained.
Not half way through the movie both kids were passed out sound asleep. Kensi carried Cali to her bed, and Deeks followed with Marty.
"See princess, that wasn't bad at all.
"It was actually kind of nice."
"So what does that mean?" Deeks was now getting his own excitement.
"I could see this being us, it felt natural."
"Yes it did. I don't want to push anything, but do you think you might be ready sooner rather than later?"
"I think I could be persuaded," she scooted close to him and nuzzled against his neck.
"I know we haven't had a chance to talk about it since Mexico." He wasn't sure he wanted to bring it up. "do you, do you think you would be ok finding another line of work soon so we can work in starting a family of our own."
Kensi sat up. She knew this was something they would need to talk about again and should be a conversation before they wed. She became a little tense. "I love what we do. You know that. I love protecting people but most of all I love being your partner, but doing this with kids," she said looking around. "Its growing on me. It's a different kind of partnership. Running the bar, that could be a partnership as well. I don't know. I think I can get used to it. I hope I can get used to it. I think, I think I might finally be ready Deeks."
His smile was so wide. He couldn't believe his ears. "I don't want you to think I would make you choose between us and the job you love so much. That's never what I meant."
"Deeks, I know. I get it now. It was a heated argument during an emotional situation."
"Ya," he ran his hands through his hair. "I want this, I want a family with you Kens, but if our family is only meant to be you, me and Monty, then I guess that's what it is."
"And that, would be unfair of me." She kissed his cheek gently. "I promised to give you everything I have in this life, which includes giving you children."
He returned the kiss to Kensi's cheek. "I love you, you know that."
"I think I do," she smirked. "You brought me on this trip, to show me the life we could have, didn't you," she winked.
"Honestly, not at all. Ray was the first one to see our thing. He made me promise to call him and let him know how our thing worked out."
"Yes I know, I can read lips remember and we had coms still on. And you mean the thing we didn't have," She cackled.
"Ya, about That, and That laugh still freaks me out, by the wall," he grinned. "Anyway, I asked Hetty if It was safe to call him. Hetty being Hetty said Mr. Deeks, I have a better idea," he imitated his boss.
Kensi giggled at his lack of Hettyness. "Stick with your Deekness, Hetty is out of your league."
Deeks definitely had to agree with that statement. "Anyway, she arranged everything. I'm glad he's doing well. I've missed him."
"I'm glad we got to do this. Maybe that was Hetty's plan to make me see." She shrugged. "Anyway, as much as our moms are chopping at the bit to be grandparents, I would like to be married first."
"I think I can agree on that timeline." His smile brighter and brighter.
Deeks and Kensi spent the rest of the evening playing mom and dad as Ray and Jenna enjoyed their night on the town.
The next day, the family of four and Deeks and Kensi headed to Disney World. Kensi tried to hide her eyes light up at the site of the castle.
"I knew you were a princess."
"Whatever," she giggled.
To Kensi's surprise she didn't hate Disney World. Yes it was crowded, yes there were kids and parents running everywhere, but watching little Marty and Cali and seeing the Magic Kingdom through the eyes of children, gave her a new perspective. Being a princess as Deeks called her and seeing the castle light up, Kensi felt elated. She never in a million years thought she would ever be this happy. She gently placed a kiss on Deeks cheek.
"What was that for?"
"Everything Deeks, Everything."
