Kensi felt her heart drop. She was so upset she barely registered the fact that the doctor had called her "ma'am". The doctor saw how in shock she was and pulled her over to a bench and gently forced her to sit down.

"Mr. Deeks lost an enormous amount of blood. We had to give him almost four transfusions. We had to induce a coma because there was some swelling in his brain from a concussion. Probably from when he fell after being shot. One of his lungs was about to collapse but fortunately we got to him before that happened. He will most likely wake up in two to three days but what state he'll be in when he wakes up… well… we can only speculate. It is possible from the amount of swelling that he might possibly have memory loss of the shooting or even complete memory loss. There is also the possibility of permanent brain damage. Now assuming his brain is perfectly functional when he wakes up it will still take several months to heal." the doctor paused for a breath. "If you would like you may see him. Some say it evens helps the patient wake up sooner if someone he cares about talks to him. Would you like to see him Miss?"

"Kensi. My name is Kensi." she said quietly.

"Well Kensi, would you like to see him?" the doctor asked softly.

"Yes. I would like to see him." She replied still in a sort of stupor.

….

Kensi opened her eyes and looked around. She must have fallen asleep in the hospital. She glanced at her watch. It was three in the morning. As soon as the doctor had let her see Deeks she felt better. Only marginally, though.

When she had walked into his room she had almost broken down crying. There were several tubes going through him and even though he was shirtless he had so many bandages you could barely see his chest. See had dragged a chair right up to his bed. She desperately wanted to take his hand but she was still unsure despite his confessions a few days earlier. She still remembered with stunning clarity how he had kissed her. It was so brief but oh so sweet. She looked at his lips to find them unscathed. They were just about the only part of his body that was uninjured. She couldn't restrain herself any longer and she grabbed his hand. She stroked his skin and rubbed his thumb. She studied his hand carefully. She was getting restless. She wished he would just wake up already. Then, Kensi had remembered what the doctor had said about talking to him. So she started talking to him about everything and nothing. She finished the story she had started to tell him when they were under cover as a married couple about her and her friend Monica. She told him about the journal her dad had written her. She told him about happy her mother was to have her daughter back. She told him everything she knew about anything she knew about, all the while holding his hand, occasionally threading her fingers through his hair, stroking his jaw, and eventually falling asleep.

Kensi sat up in the chair she was uncomfortably sleeping in. She looked over at Deeks who was still asleep. On top of the rolling table across his bed someone had put a cup of coffee and a bag of McDonald's. She smiled at how her team took care of her. It was probably Sam or Callen. You would think that because she was so worried and heartbroken that she wouldn't be able to eat a thing. Not Kensi. She was starving. She strode over to the bag of food and practically wolfed down the whole big mac in record time. She was sipping her coffee and picking at the last of her fries when she heard someone mumble. She immediately set her food down and went over to Deeks bed. She sat down on the side of his bed facing him and she took his hand.

"Deeks?" she whispered.

There was no response. She could have sworn she had heard something. She sighed but continued to stroke his hand and memorize his face. A few minutes later, just as she was brushing his hair from his forehead, she heard a faint "Kensi". She immediately sat up.

"Deeks? Deeks? Are you awake?"

Deeks turned his head into her hand that was still on his face and sighed "Kensi."

She smiled. He was still asleep but he was obviously thinking about her. Or dreaming about her. But Kensi didn't care either way because she knew that he was going to be okay. She smiled and ran her fingers through his hair.

"I'm right here, Deeks." she whispered. "I'm not going anywhere. I promise."

Kensi leaned forward and brushed her lips against his cheek.

"I will never leave you."
