Well this Chapter is long overdue but here it is.

"I will never leave you."
Deeks was awakened by the feeling of soft lips against his cheek. He tried to open his eyes but it hurt. Hell, everything hurt. He felt fingers run through his hair which felt nice.
"Please, Deeks. Wake up for me." He heard Kensi's strained voice pleading with him.
I'm trying Kens. He thought. He tried again to open his eyes and he managed to open them slightly. He groaned at the sudden flash of pain that coursed through his body. He felt Kensi stroke his jaw.
"I know, Deeks. I know it hurts. I am so sorry." He had closed his eyes again but he turned his head towards her voice.
"Kensi." He sighed breathily. He summoned all of his willpower to open his eyes fully. When he did he saw an extremely tired, worried, breathtakingly beautiful Kensi. She smiled when he looked up at her.
"Hey." She whispered, almost shyly. He opened his mouth to speak but his throat was as dry as the Sahara. He swallowed then cleared his throat which sent another flash of searing pain through him. He groaned again.
Kensi moved so that she was sitting on his bed. She took his hand and began rubbing it between hers. Deeks doctor entered the room.
"Hey Marty, it's nice to see you awake." The doctor said cheerily. Deeks just grunted in response.
"Well let's get right down to it. You were very seriously injured. You'll need to stay on the feeding tube for a couple of days until we're sure you can handle solids. Your voice will be sore for a little while too. Hopefully, if all goes as planned, and you're healing correctly, you can go home in a week. But even then you won't be able to return to work for about two months. Once you return to work you'll be stuck with desk duty for another month. So as you can see we have a long healing process ahead of us."
….
Deeks' body was healing on schedule and by the end of the week he was cleared to go home. This was a relief to Kensi who was aching to get out of the hospital. She had barely left his side during the week. Callen and Sam helped Deeks into the wheelchair and car as he was leaving the hospital, but Kensi was going to be the one that was going to take care of him until he could do it himself.
The team collectively decided that Deeks would stay at Kensi's house while she was taking care of him. She had even tidied up a bit for his arrival. The drive to Kensi's house from the hospital was rather silent. Kensi and Deeks were both extremely happy that he was finally getting out of the hospital.
When they finally arrived, it took Kensi a little while to help him from the car into her place. She had decided that he would sleep in her bed and she had prepared her room to make it completely comfortable for Deeks. Once Deeks was settled in, Kensi plopped down on the bed beside him. He was propped up by two fluffed pillows that Kensi had fluffed herself.
"I am so glad to get out of that hell." Kensi said.
"You and me both, Princess." He replied. He turned to face her and she looked at him for a long moment before moving. She scooted towards him and very gently pressed him back against the pillows with her hand on his chest. Then she carefully straddled him, making sure almost none of her weight was resting on him. She laced her fingers behind his neck and he rested his hands on her hips. She leaned forward so that her lips were barely inches from his.
"You have no idea how much I missed you." She whispered before placing a kiss on his jaw.
He looked deeply into her eyes. "Then why don't you show me?" She smiled seductively at him before saying.
"I think I will."
She ran her fingers through his hair before lightly running her fingertips down his bare chest. He sighed and closed his eyes. She leaned down and made a trail of kisses from his neck down to his chest then back up to his jaw. She placed one hand against the side of his face which he leaned into. The other hand she used to trace his jaw his cheekbones, nose, eyebrows, and finally his lips. She leaned down as if to kiss him but right before her lips touched his she changed direction. She kissed the corner of his mouth and he groaned.
"Kensi."
She smiled. She was teasing him and she liked it. But she figured he'd been through enough hell so finally she leaned down and kissed him very softly. He sighed and parted his lips. Her tongue entered his mouth and they dueled for dominance. Soon her kisses became more urgent. She moaned softly as he bit her lip gently. She began grinding her hips into him. Pretty soon Deeks ran out of breath.
"Kens." He said.
"Hmm?" She moaned, her eyes closed.
"You know, I did just get shot. And uh, I don't think that now is the time for us to…"
"Oh my god, I'm so sorry Deeks. I got a bit… carried away." She blushed and looked down.
He just smiled brightly and took her hands in his. "Oh trust me Kens, you weren't the only one. I just need to get a little better before we do anything too… strenuous."
She laughed in agreement then snuggled up against him. She sighed and whispered against his chest that she was glad that he was okay.
He just chuckled and whispered into her hair, "What can I say, Beautiful? I told you I will never leave you."
