So, here's how this is going to go. Every chapter that I post of this story will be a short description of the major events that happen during the year time gap at the end of Just Partners.

Thanks again for everyone who asked for a sequel and so sorry it took me this long to update. :)


"We didn't think this through." Kensi said.

"What do you mean?"

"Look around. Think about it."

"Let's see. Yesterday you were in Afghanistan on a classified mission, and now you just woke up in my bed. How did we not think this through?"

"What are we going to tell the guys? And Hetty dropped me off here, but she probably didn't expect me to spend the night here. What if they aren't ok with this?"

He sat up and looked her right in the eyes.

"Then I'll quit. Screw NCIS, you are all I care about."

"You can't quit. You're my partner, Deeks. I don't trust anyone else. I can't lose you."

"I might be your partner, but I'm also your boyfriend. No matter what happens, you won't lose me Kens."

That was the first time he called himself her boyfriend.

She extended her pinky finger. "Promise?"

He wrapped his pinky around hers. "Promise."

I guess Deeks brings out Kensi's inner child.

So they spent their next few days off from work deciding on the best way to tell everyone.

Sam and Callen weren't surprised, and neither was Hetty. Nell was more excited than anyone and kept saying "it's about time" but poor sweet Eric was totally clueless and didn't even see it coming.

Granger was feeling somewhat sentimental that day, and when confronted by Hetty over the situation he said as long as their work as partners wasn't affected, he was okay with their relationship.

No one expected that.

As they were leaving, Deeks opened the passenger door for Kensi and said: "Told you it would be fine." Then he pressed a quick kiss to her lips.

That happened to be the exact moment that Sam and Callen were walking to their cars.

"Oh my god, Sam. Gross." Callen said. He was dramatically covering his eyes.

"Guess we have to get used to that." Sam said, the relief that they finally gave into their feelings evident in his voice.

"Yeah you do." Deeks said.


I know its too fluffy and probably would never happen, but... Too bad.

Next up... Kensi's first undercover op back at work.
