Still don't own nothing
Chapter 3
Advice
After the long weekend, on Monday morning when the team returned to work Kensi really didn't have no clue what to do, she had slept with her partner and he had somehow gotten the messed up signals that they were together and well… they weren't.
Kensi only knew one person she could get advice from, the top gun herself.
Monday morning when everyone was settled into their desks in the office, Kensi took the empty to slot of opportunity to go and talk to Hetty. She hesitantly walked into her office where the little woman sat at her desk pouring some hot looking tea from her fancy china teapot. Hetty looked up momentarily to see the young agent stood at her desk with a sheepish and worried look
"Miss Blye, how can I help?" Asked Hetty in her British and polite voice, Kensi took a seat at her desk
"Hetty… did you ever… break the employee rules?" Asked Kensi nervously, Hetty looked up and chuckled slightly
"You're going to have to be more specific… where is this going?" She asked sipping her tea.
"Have you ever slept with your partner?" Asked Kensi relieved to finally get the weight off of her shoulders. Hetty put down her teacup and saucer, which made a slight clatter sound
"Why do you want to know?" Asked Hetty suspiciously
"Just… curious"
"Hmm… oh yes there was time in 1978, it was in London I was with the CIA back then working with Special Agent Andrew Matthews… ah such a charming man we did break the rules, once or twice" Hetty admitted looking into the distance laughing to herself
"Did it work out okay? Did anyone find out?" Kensi asked
"Didn't have to Andrew what shot a month later in a drug bust… it broke my heart" Hetty sighed
"Right… well look the truth is I have a friend in… Washington who has slept with her partner… and she's worried she'll lose her job if anyone finds out or things wont be the same between her and her partner, what should I tell her?" It was clear Hetty had caught on but was playing along
"You should tell her, she's an idiot for doing it in the first place and that… she should try and talk to her partner" Kensi nodded
"Good advice… for my friend I mean" Hetty nodded and grinned, Kensi stood, smiled and wandered back over to her desk
Later that day when the case was solved, Kensi took it upon herself to talk to Deeks and explain that she didn't want things to be weird between them and she didn't want to lead him on.
So when the office was practically empty except for the two Kensi hesitantly wandered into the office while Deeks started packing away his things
"Hey, you going home?" Said Kensi coming to stand by his desk, Deeks looked up momentarily and smiled
"Yeah, what's up?" As Deeks finished up Kensi finally spoke
"Look about the other night… I don't want to make this a big deal and I don't want to lead you on so are we cool?" Kensi asked watching closely for Deeks's reaction
Deeks smiled uncomfortably and looked down for a moment out of embarrassment.
"Cool as can be Kensi" Deeks grabbed his things and turned his back on Kensi, leaving.
"See ya later… Fern" Joked Deeks as he left, Kensi smiled to herself knowing things were good between them…
