I own nothing.

The next day was Deeks' laundry day. He always went through the same routine every Saturday; he would go throw all of his pockets (ruined a lot of clothes with pens and chapsticks in the past) separate all of the clothes by color and start the whole washing process with the biggest load.

As Deeks was going through the pockets of a pair of jeans, he came across a lump in the back pocket. He made a quizzical face and pulled the mysterious object out to the open. And as soon as he saw what it was, he almost dropped it. Again.

"Crap, Kensi's thong. I forgot to get rid of it at her place last night." He said out loud. Apparently the sound of his voice had disturbed the dog, because the next thing Deeks knew, Monty was sitting in front of him. The dog wagged his tail and panted happily.

"Ok, it's not time for you to eat. And don't look so happy, because your owner is a dead man. What am I suppose to do with this?" Deeks asked rhetorically.

Monty didn't reply (naturally) but instead got down on his belly and hid his face behind his front paws.

"I would go hid, but she would hunt me down and kill me. I am doomed!"

At that point, Monty stopped hiding behind his paws and was panting happily.

"You do realize that if I die, no one will feed you."

Monty just tipped his head to the side, as if he was saying, "What are you talking about?"

Deeks let out a sigh. "You're right; Kensi would totally take care of you, she loves you." Deeks gave Monty a mock glare. "You are infringing on my woman."

Monty gave a bark and Deeks laugh.

"You're right, she would kill me if she heard me refer to her as 'my woman'. Mainly because Kensi Marie Blye belongs to no one but herself." Deeks frowned slightly, deep in thought. "But back to the topic at hand, what am I suppose to do with these?" He thought for a moment. "I could try just dropping them on the floor at her place next time I am there; it's messy enough that she might not notice that they weren't there before." But Deeks scratched that idea right after he had said it. Kensi was the type of packrat who knew the exact placement of everything. "Well, maybe I could sneak them into her underwear drawer when she's not looking." But once again, he had to scratch that plan. Kensi never let him get anywhere near her bedroom. Either she's afraid she would lose her control and end up dragging Deeks into her bed and having her wicked way with him (he wished) or her room is packed full of knick-knacks, like the rest of her place (Deeks figured it was the latter).

Deeks ran his hand through his shaggy hair. "I got nothing. If you have an idea, feel free to share it." Deeks informed his dog. Monty just panted.

"Yeah, that's what I thought." Deeks said with a sigh. "Well, I guess my best plan of action is to wash it. At least that way it will be clean when I return it to Kensi. That is, if I return it to her." Deeks looked at Monty. "Should I wash it?" Monty let out a bark and Deeks took it as him agreeing with him. Deeks tossed the article of clothing (he really wasn't sure if he should call it clothing, because it barely covered anything. Not that he was complaining) into the washer with his clothes of similar color.

"You know, I should just use you to give them back to her. She loves you, she won't kill you. And maybe by the time she got here, she would have cooled off enough that she would only maim me, instead of killing me."

Monty let out a bark, but Deeks could tell it was not a bark that agreed with him, but one telling him it's time for their daily walk.

"Ok, I understand you message, loud and clear. Come on boy, let's go to the beach. Maybe the fresh air will clear my mind." And with that, the dog and owner left the small piece of cloth in the washer, clearly out of sight, but not out of mind.

Thank you so much for the reviews and the watches! It was amazing to come back online to find all those emails!

Anyway, I had this idea when I was writing the first chapter, but it seemed to fit better as a second chapter (at least to me it did). I can't promise that these chapters will be very long (it's something I am working on) and I thing this one will only be a few chapters long. But I love and appreciate your support!

As usual, feel free to leave a review and happy reading!
