Here it is! I'm sorry for all of you who don't like Kensi's new partner but I'm going to try to make him a nice and fun character.

Hope that you enjoy it…Don't forget to review (they make me work extra-hard!)

Chapter 14

Callen sat on his desk, thinking about the huge mistake that he had made. He had hurt Kensi, he knew that, but he didn't know how to fix it. He wasn't too happy with the idea of her getting a new partner either. As Sam had said, he liked the idea of being able to protect her all the time and the mere thought of putting her life in a complete stranger's hands made him nervous.

There was also that terrible pain in his stomach that it was getting harder to ignore by the second. At first, he had thought that it was just a bad feeling but then the pain started to get worse. He hadn't said a thing about it to anyone but if Kensi's worried glances when he wasn't looking were any indication, she had noticed that something wasn't right.

Immediately after lunch, Hetty called the team upstairs for the second time that day. They all knew that this was going to be about Kensi's new partner. Kensi got up immediately and started to climb up the stairs but she stopped in the middle waiting for Sam and Callen. Callen motioned for Sam to go ahead because he didn't want his partner to see how painful it was for him to move.

Sam followed his orders and went upstairs, but Kensi didn't. She just stood on the steps watching him. He slowly got up from the chair, holding his stomach and with a look of pain in his face. She sighed and went to him, worried.

Callen was too busy trying to ignore the pain in his stomach to hear her get close to him, so he was honestly startled when she spoke.

"What's wrong with you?" she asked.

It was the first thing that she had said to him that wasn't work related in a week. He tried to walk a bit but ended up sitting down on the nearby couch, Kensi still looking at him worriedly.

"I honestly don't know. Maybe it was something that I ate. Come on; let's go upstairs to meet your new partner."

With that much said, Callen got up and slowly went upstairs, followed by a very worried Kensi. Just because he had decided not to talk to her for the past week didn't mean that she had stopped caring about him.

Callen was the first one to see who her new partner was and he just laughed before saying, "She's going to kill you before the end of the week!"

The man shrugged and smiled.

"I'll take my chances with that. But thank you for your concern, Callen. I promise that I'll watch my back from now on."

Kensi walked in to the room, smiling when she saw her new partner.

"Look whose back…The worst liason officer of the whole wide world!" she laughed

"I know that you missed me, Fern!"

Kensi pointed a finger at him, "Never again!"

Deeks lifted his hands in surrender and Kensi turned to Hetty.

"Is he my new partner?"

Hetty nodded with a smile, and much to everyone's surprise, Kensi smiled too. She walked to Deeks and gave him a quick hug.

"Welcome back, then. This is going to be fun!"

At the end of the day, Kensi and Deeks were getting along great. She was honestly happy that he was her new partner. For a few minutes she had feared that Hetty had called Renko. He was a good guy and a good agent but spending more than a couple of hours with him was pure torture.

It was time for them to go home after a relatively calm day. They said their goodbyes and left. Callen was the only one to stay behind, or so he thought. He was lying down on the couch and the pain in his stomach wasn't getting any better.

After a couple of seconds he heard a noise and lifted his head but didn't see anyone around.

"Get up, right now!"

He would recognize that bossy voice anywhere. Hetty could be quite bossy, but she was no match for Kensi. The junior agent could be extremely scary when she wanted to be.

"Kensi, I'm really not in the mood for an argument right now." he said, defeated.

"That's good because neither am I. Now do as I say and get up."

"Kenz, just go home and leave me alone, please!"

She sighed and sat down on the couch, stroking Callen's forehead. He didn't open his eyes but he knew that she was worried about him.

"You're not okay and I'm taking you to the hospital right now, G! Come on, get up and come with me." she ordered.

He looked at her for the first time and saw the fear in her eyes, so he did as he was told. He got up and walked to her car with her help. He could barely move by then.
