A/N: I would like to take the time to say a HUGE thank you for all the nice reviews. You guys are truly awesome! When I started this story I intended it to be a small one-shot, two chapters max, but somehow I keep on writing on this and I always come up with new ideas how to continue. So this is chapter 5 already even though it's just a few words as a filler, not sure how many more will follow.
Kensi and Deeks got into his car in silence. Deeks thought about this evening. He never expected to see her tonight but he couldn't be happier. But how will the night end? Should he just drive her home? Should he stay with her? Should he give her some space to be alone? He knew what he wanted but what did she want? Sure, she had kissed him earlier and seemed to be happy to be back, to be with him but she also said she wanted to be home and sleep in her bed.
"Kensi?" he asked tentatively.
"Mmh" She sat in the passenger's seat with her eyes closed, her head leaning against the window.
"Do you want to get something to eat on the way or shall I just take you home?" He wanted to give her the opportunity to decide. He didn't want to put any pressure on her, he wanted to let her take the lead, let her decide what she wanted to do next.
She opened her eyes and turned to him just looking at him for a few moments. She bit her lower lip fighting an internal battle. She couldn't decide if she should just say what she actually wanted.
"Deeks, I… uhm… I would…" she looked down at her hands suddenly scared and nervous. What if she wanted too much? She couldn't just ask him, could she?
They stopped at a red light and he turned to her, too.
"Kensi just tell me… I'll do anything…" he was pleading with her. He just wanted to help her feel better. He put his hand under chin making her look up at him. This gesture and his words gave her the reassurance she needed now.
"I would rather like to go to your place instead of mine. I just want to be close to you right now," she admitted softly.
He was shocked but also pleasantly surprised to hear her say what she wanted so openly especially that she wanted him. A small smile played at his lips.
"Your wish is my command, princess," he teased her hoping to bring a smile to her face. She didn't disappoint him.
The car behind them honked and Deeks reluctantly turned his attention back to the road but he couldn't resist grabbing her hand and bringing it to his lips softly kissing her knuckles. They drive in a comfortable silence now heading to his apartment together.
