Chapter: 1
A/N: Hey everyone. This is my second NCIS LA fan-fiction that I have posted. I hope you like it. I am unsure how many chapters it will be at this point. A few at least. I guess I will just see where the story takes me. Please comment. I love reading all of your feedback.
Home at Last
Darkness was slowly beginning to envelope Los Angeles. Kensi was completely worn out. This undercover assignment had been a long one and she was relieved to finally be heading home. She just had one stop to make first. Hetty would not be impressed if Kensi went home before checking in back at Ops. So grudgingly Kensi slowly pulled her car into her usual parking space, and headed into the apparently condemned building to tie up the loose ends of the case.
It was only as Kensi entered the bullpen that she realized quite how late it must be. Cursing to herself as she looked at her watch, she didn't notice someone approaching behind her. The light touch of a hand on her shoulder made her jump, luckily for Callen Kensi managed to stop her fist before it met his face.
"Easy" said Callen with a grin "it's just me."
"Don't sneak up on me like that. I could have broken your nose." She grumbled, as she leant against the edge of her desk.
"Yeah right. So you seen Hetty yet?"
"Nope, heading in now." Kensi replied, rolling her eyes to show her displeasure.
"Hetty left about 20 minutes a go," Callen said with a chuckle, as Kensi dropped her bag unceremoniously in a heap at her feet.
"Seriously?" Kensi snapped. "I have been driving practically all day. What, she couldn't call or send me a message to let me know she wouldn't be here? I could have been at home fast asleep by now!"
Callen gave her a sympathetic grin.
"Sorry," Kensi said apologetically. "I shouldn't be moaning at you. It's not your fault Hetty left."
"Don't worry about it." Callen said with a shrug as he sat down at his desk. "Hetty is a mystery even to me, and I've known her longer than any of you. It's easier just to roll with it."
"Whatever "it" may be…" Kensi muttered darkly. She shook her head, and smiled at Callen. "Well, I guess while I'm here I could help out with whatever it is you're doing?" Kensi asked.
"I think I'm about done actually. I was just about to clear up my desk when you arrived. It's been a long day." Callen yawned deeply.
"Oh okay, well I guess I should just head home then." Kensi picked up her bag and waved over her shoulder towards Callen as she made her way back to her car.
The parking lot was eerily silent as Kensi climbed back into her car. Throwing her bag onto the passenger seat beside her, Kensi hunted through her bag, finally managing to fish out her car keys. As she rifled through her purse, Kensi noticed that she had a couple of missed calls on her cell phone. She dialled a number and held the phone to her ear.
Kensi snorted as she listened to two voice messages left by her partner.
"Damn it Deeks!" She half cursed/half chuckled as she listened to his messages.
"You have two messages. First message:
"Hey Kens, are you back yet? I have got a slight problem here, and I'm kind of in need of a major Kensi assist… so yeah. If you could call me when you get this message that would be awesome. Okay…Bye." ****CLICK****
Message number two: "Hey Kensi, Me again. So… remember that minor problem I mentioned? I may have made it somewhat worse… I uh, kind of… oh crap!" ***boooop***
"What the hell?" Kensi muttered to herself as she pocketed her phone and started the car. What kind of trouble had Deeks gotten himself into now…
"I guess I'm going to Deeks' place" Kensi muttered.
