3 – Does your husband know where you are?
24/January
They finish the last reports they have to fill out for the day and start getting ready to leave. It's still early so Callen and Sam make plans to go bowling. Kensi has a doctor's appointment in one hour and she has no idea of how to go without making Deeks suspicious. Callen turns to Deeks. "Why don't you two come with us? It's been a while since we've last kicked your ass…"
Deeks grins but shakes his head. "That sounds tempting but the waves are calling me today. I think I'm going to the beach. Do you want to come too, princess?"
Callen and Sam no longer mock him when he uses nicknames for her. It's pointless because it's pretty obvious nothing they say will make him stop. They did, however, give her the perfect excuse to ditch Deeks without him being suspicious about what she's going to do. Kensi shakes her head. "As tempting as an afternoon on the beach watching you surf sounds, I think I'll go with Callen and Sam. You have fun."
Deeks shrugs and gives her a peck on the lips. "Suit yourself. I'm going home to get my board. Can I take your car?"
Kensi nods. "I'll go with the guys."
They say their goodbyes and Kensi gets inside Callen's car. Now comes the hard part. How is she going to convince them to drive her to the doctor without telling them what's going on? She can't tell them. That's not even an option. If she really is pregnant, Deeks has to be the first one to know. That's when she has an idea. She sends Nell a text. Call me right now and pretend you need my help with something. I'll explain later.
And five seconds later, her phone is ringing. She picks it up and her plan works perfectly. She asks the boys to drop her off on a small clothing shop near the hospital because Nell is having an emergency with clothes. They don't even question her about it and she actually enters the store just so they won't get suspicious. After she's sure they're gone, Kensi walks to the hospital and goes straight to her doctor's office. She could easily do one of those tests that are sold pretty much everywhere but she wants to be 100% sure.
One hour later, she sits on the sand on Deeks favorite beach and watches him surf with a small smile on her face. She rests a hand on her stomach and speaks to her baby for the first time. "That's your daddy, baby. He's a really good surfer. Don't ever tell him I said this because his ego will get even bigger. One day, I'm sure he will teach you how to surf. He's a great guy and I know he's going to be the best daddy in the whole wide world."
Deeks spots her sitting there and walks out of the water with a smile on his face. "Does your husband know where you are?"
Kensi smiles at him and throws him a towel so he can dry himself. "I wanted to surprise you."
Deeks sits on the sand next to her and kisses her on the lips. He tastes like salty water but she's already used to that. In fact, she likes it. It's who he is and she wouldn't change that for anything in this world. When they pull back, Deeks lays on the towel and pulls her with him so she can lie down too. "I'm surprised. I thought you were going bowling with Callen and Sam."
Kensi gets on top of him and looks him in the eye. "I lied to you."
Deeks wraps his arms around her waist to keep her steady on top of him. "What are you talking about?"
Kensi takes a deep breath and starts her confession, trying to keep the smile off her face so she won't give anything away. "I had no intention of going bowling with Sam and Callen."
Deeks frowns. "Kensi, you know you don't have to lie to me, no matter what. You can tell me anything. I love you. Why did you tell me that?"
She strokes his cheek and he calms down slightly but her next words worry him. "I'm sorry I lied to you. I went to the doctor and I didn't want to tell you anything before I knew what was going on."
Deeks starts panicking and it shows in his voice and eyes. "Kensi, what's going on? Are you sick? You should have told me. I would have gone with you. I didn't even notice that you were sick. What kind of husband am I? What's wrong, princess?"
She sighs and kisses his chest to try to ease his worries but his heart is racing beneath her palm. "You're a great husband. I felt a bit nauseous yesterday when you went to open the door of the backyard for Fern. But it went away so I thought nothing about it. However, I started connecting a few dots and figured I should go to the doctor. I just didn't want to tell you until I knew what was going on."
He grabs her hand and kisses it. "You're killing me here. Tell me what's wrong, honey."
Kensi finally allows the smile to take over her features. "I'm two months pregnant."
As soon as the words come out of her mouth, a huge smile shows up at Deeks face and he flips them over. Supporting himself so he won't crush her, he showers her face, neck and chest with kisses. Kensi laughs when he hits a few ticklish spots and he stops, looking her in the eye with happiness and love written all over his face. "I love you so much, Kensi."
She pulls him in for a kiss that they only break when air becomes scarce. "I love you too, Marty."
They're having a baby!
I'm sorry it took this long to update but I had a lot going on. Tomorrow is my 18th birthday so I had some things to take care of for the big day. And, starting this Tuesday, I will be officially off for the summer so I will try to update more regularly. For now, I hope you review this chapter and I promise that every reviewer will receive a small sneak-peak into the next chapter (unless you don't want one).
Love,
Sarah
