The last time he saw her was years ago on Christmas eve, the day he left her with no warning or reason. He didn't know what to do, his PTSD was taking a toll on their relationship and he thought the best thing to do was leave her. But seeing her now in the bar made him realize he made the biggest mistake of his life and he was going to try and fix it.

He saw her dancing with some guy who wouldn't take no for answer. He was going to go over there and put the guy in his place but a shaggy blonde hair guy who was a little taller than Kensi beat him to it. He watched intently and in a second the shaggy guy slammed the other guys head on the bar and then four other people came over and broke up the fight. The group left right after and Jack didn't have time to talk to Kensi.

He thought about chasing after her but after what just happened it probably wasn't the greatest time to catch up and that shaggy guy was fuming with anger. Who was he anyways? A close friend to Kensi? and if so how close? Nothing was gonna stop him from getting Kensi back and if he had to go through this "friend" of hers so be it.

Deeks slowly opened his eyes, looking around he was a little confused but then he realized he fell asleep in Kensi's bed last night instead of going home. He had to go to the bathroom but it was a little hard to move with Kensi's arm's wrapped around his midsection and her head tucked into his neck. He slid off the bed trying not to disturb the sleeping beauty next to him.

Successfully he got up and went to the bathroom down the hall. He grabbed two Advil's that were in the bathroom cabinet and poured a glass of water. After setting them both on the bedside table for Kensi he headed to the kitchen to see what he could cook them for breakfast.

He started the coffee machine and mixed the pancake batter. About a half hour later he heard movement coming from the bedroom so he poured a cup of coffee and walked down the hall.

*knock* *knock*

"Come in." she said groggily.

He pushed the door open to find her stretched out across the bed like a star fish.

"Good morning." he said as handed her the cup of coffee.

"Oh just what I need, I have such a headache."

"I bet" he said chuckling " The Advil should help. I'm making pancakes, they will be done in five minutes and actually i should go check on them. Come out here when you're ready"

"Wait you made breakfast?"

"Yeah you were still sleeping and I thought you could use a good breakfast."

"Oh okay. I'll be out in a minute."

She stepped out of bed and went to the bathroom to freshen up. When she came out the smell of pancakes filled the air.

"Mhm smells good Deeks."

"We got chocolate chip pancakes with strawberries and whip-cream to go on top" He said as he handed her a plate of pancakes with the strawberries and whip-cream already on it.

"Thank you."

"Just call me Marty the Master chef." he said with a smile

"Yeah I am not calling you that." she said laughing

They sat down and ate their pancakes in silence, both of them not really sure what to say. Last night wasn't their first time sharing a bed together but last night was their first time as Kensi and Deeks.

"Nothing happened last night by the way," Deeks finally said breaking the silence. "I mean obviously that asshole caused a scene but i meant when we got to your house last night we just fell asleep.. in the same bed but I didn't try anything. I wouldn't.. I would never take advantage of you."

"I know Deeks, I trust you. Besides I asked you to stay."

Smiling he looked up and meet her eyes. "So hows your headache?"

"A lot better the hammering in my head is almost gone."

"Do you have any plans for today?"

"Nope, you got any ideas?"

"Well I should go pick up Monty from my neighbor but how about I go home take Monty for a run, take a shower, grab clean clothes and I'll come back here with yummy-yummy-heart-attack around five o'clock?"

"Yeah and bring Monty over too, I miss that little guy."

"Oh he misses you too."

"Maybe you could stay the night again?"

He smiled "Sounds perfect."

Deeks brought Monty for a quick two mile run. When they got back he gave Monty fresh water and a bowl of dog food before hopping in the shower. He put on a pair of his favorite casual jeans, a maroon v-neck shirt and a grey sweatshirt.

Deeks was excited for tonight, he loved hanging out with his partner outside of work. It didn't matter what they did, just being with her made him happy. He didn't know exactly what was going on with them at the moment or where they could be headed but they would figure it out.. they always did right? He decided he was going to ask her about it tonight.

The advil and some Gatorade helped her headache, by the time she took a shower and got dressed she was feeling a lot better. She threw on a pair of leggings and an over-sized red hoodie. There was still a couple hours before Deeks would be showing up, so she started picking up the apartment a little bit.

She was sitting on the couch watching Americas Next Top Model when she heard a knock on the door and Monty whining.

"Hey." she said opening the door to only be attacked by Monty.

"I've missed you." she said laughing as she was scratching behind Monty's ears.

Deeks dropped Monty's stuff next to the couch and smiled watching the two of them. Walking in to the kitchen he put everything on plates and grabbed two beers out of the six-pack. When he entered the living room again Kensi and Monty were sitting on the couch waiting for him.

"So what do you wanna watch?" she asked while scrolling through the movies on demand.

"What about We're the Millers? Its supposed to be really funny" he said as he placed her plate on the coffee table and handed her a beer.

"Oh yeah my friend Amanda said it was good.

"Okay you start it, I gotta use the bathroom."

"Already?" she smiled and looked at him with disbelief.

"Already princess already."

As Kensi went to purchase We're the Millers on demand, there was a knock at the door. Monty jumped up and started barking at the door.

"Who's knocking?" Kensi asked quietly, trying to think of who it could be.

She opened the door and couldn't believe who was standing at her front door step.

"Hi Kensi."

It was a voice she hadn't heard in a very long time. To be honest she didn't think she would be hearing it again.

"Jack?"
