Thank you for all the reviews. I'm sorry this took so long. I've had it for a few weeks, but got really busy at work. I guess it was silly thinking I could be a working mom, write fan fiction, and take a writing class. Please review if you enjoy it, and constructive critism is always welcome. Also I think I may change this to an M rating soon. Nothing to graphic, more for safety purposes. Let me know if you want me to keep it rated T.

It's a beautiful day in LA, and the drive is pleasant, especially since it doesn't involve a chase or blazing guns. Deeks smiles as they pass the public beach. He knows that Kensi is going to say something.

"You do realize you just passed the entrance, right?"

"We're going to a different beach. The surf is better there".

He drives through a residential area, all with amazing beach front property, and turns down one of the more secluded driveways.

The house in front of her is enormous. It's more of a mansion then a house, with a circular driveway, intricate stone entrance, and large wooden doors.

Kensi's mouth hangs open just a bit. Complete admiration of the architecture keeping her in a state of disbelief.

"Where are we?"

Deeks responds nonchalantly, "At a close personal friend's".

He takes her hand and walks to the already open door.

An elderly English gentleman standing by the door starts talking as they enter. "Hello, Mr. Deeks, I'm glad you could make the festivities"

"Hello Harvey, how've you been?". Deeks responds with a genuine smile.

The inside of the house had Kensi looking around in complete awe. Marble staircases on either side of the grand entryway curved towards the second floor, and the dome ceiling was covered with a mural that could rival the Sistine Chapel.

Suddenly, a voice was heard from the other side of the great room.

"Marty, I didn't expect to see you today. Did you bring your board?"

"Wouldn't leave home without it". Deeks meets the man halfway, and grabs his hand. The handshake quickly turns into a manly hug with both men quickly releasing.

"Brian, I'd like to introduce you to Kensi Blye".

"Ahhh, the infamous Kensi. Nice to finally meet you. I can see why Deeks is hiding you from me. Your beautiful!". He takes Kensi's hand and gives it a soft kiss.

She feels her face start to flush. "The pleasure is all mine. You have a beautiful home". Kensi's not sure why she blushes every time Deeks or his friend says she's beautiful. She's heard it before, but for some reason she likes it when Deeks mentions it.

The three start to head towards the back of the house. The smell of a good old fashion clam bake permeating through the hall.

"Just like you to be early for a party." Brian quips as he walks through a set of venetian doors into an elaborate courtyard.

"Party? What party?" Kensi gives Deeks a questioning look.

"Brian is having his annual clam bake. I didn't think you would join me if I told you, so I had two options, trick you or drag you kicking and screaming. I went for the easier one."

"We'll chat about this later." She replies with firm expression on her face. Deeks knows it's nothing to worry about. Even though her face is firm, her eyes say something entirely different.

While Deeks and Kensi were discussing the party, Brian had walked ahead to a set of stone stairs. He was waiting there until they had finished there conversation. Once they met up with him, they followed him down the stairs to the expanse of his private beach. Halfway down Kensi could here the waves, and smell the ocean air. She knew she was going to enjoy the day.

Brian led them to a private beach cabana, and had some of the wait staff bring over two daiquiris. Deeks surfboard had been brought down by another member of Brian's staff, and was ready and waiting to be used.

"I'll be right back. I have a few things to attend to before the party." Brian smiled and turned towards Kensi. "Keep him occupied. A bored Marty can get into a lot of trouble."

"An occupied Marty can get ME into a lot of trouble." She says under her breath, as Brian walks away.

Deeks kicks off his flip flops, and takes off his shirt as Kensi removes her swimming cover up. The look on Deeks face confirms that she made the right choice on the bathing suit.

"Didn't your mother ever tell you not to stare." She says with a smile.

"My mother has never seen you in a bikini." He playfully responds.
