I want to thank all the reviews I've been getting. You guys are seriously amazing! I leave you one more chapter, this one its an interaction between Hetty and Kensi. Hope you like it!

"Jacob Harrison Deeks, you better not climb that up!" Kensi got up and said in a louder tone of voice as Jake ran around, laughing, starting to climb up the jungle gym. "Jake, are you listening to me?" She walked to him in big and fast steps and got him out of there as he kicked out. "You're too young to play on these."

"That one." He pointed the chin-up bars, sniffing.

"Not those either."

"I wanna!" He said, kicking out again.

Kensi sighed and put him on the ground. "Go ahead. You can't even reach them!"

Jake jumped, trying to reach the bar. He then looked at his mother. "Help me!"

"No." She ducked next to him and whispered. "And behave. You're not seeing Quinn misbehaving, are you?" Kensi took her seat on the bench again and in a while Jake came to sit next to her, walking with his arms crossed and an angry expression on the face. "I'm not changing my mind, Jake, no matter fuss you put on! You want to play, you can go, but you're not going to the jungle gym!" Kensi ignored him for a while but then told him. "Go to the slide, like Quinn."

"No!" He answered pouted, turning around.

At that point Kensi realized what Deeks had been telling her all along: Jake got her personality. The kid was stubborn and proud as hell! She exhaled deeply. Jake was having a bad day; his last of the second molars was erupting and he was very reluctant. But Kensi was controlling herself, trying not to get angry at him or her daughter. She had been working all day and now she took them to the playground, so they could all get some air.

"You come to the same playground, every week." Hetty said, sitting next to Kensi. "It can be dangerous."

"It's part of the routine. The kids know this place so well already." She looked at her as Jake climbed to her lap, biting her finger to ease the pain of the swelling gum.

"The human being has the neediness for routine. Change is always difficult."

"We need routine to be reassured that there are thing in life that won't change." Kensi then stared down at her son, almost sleeping. "You said this assignment would take only a couple of days. Those days turned into weeks, and those weeks into two months already." She looked up to her boss with teary eyes. "We miss him, Hetty. I'm running out of excuses to tell the kids, it's hard to take care of two kids just by my own…I don't know if I can take it much longer."

"That's why I'm here. LAPD gave me a call this morning. They informed me that Mr. Deeks' assignment with them was over. They also apologized for letting the mission get a bit out of hand and for taking away from us our liaison agent."

"He's okay, isn't he?" Kensi asked, just to make sure. She had heard great news and didn't want to hear a bad one right after.

"Yes, Kensi, he is okay and should return home by tonight."

"Thank you." She said with a smile.

"I'm just doing my job."

Quinn came running to them and sat on the bench, tired, leaning her head on Kensi's arm. Hetty handed her a lollipop she took from her pocket and caressed her hair. "We both know you did more than that. He's more than just my partner…"

"He's your husband, the father of your children. And he's thrilled to come back home to you three." Hetty got up and walked away.

Kensi cuddled Jake, now sleeping, to her chest and stretched her hand to Quinn, telling her. "Come on. Dad's coming home tonight."

The little girl jumped off the bench, pulled the lollipop out of her mouth and held her hand. "I missed daddy."

"So did I..."

Don't forget to leave me your review.

Sorry for this but I posted today an one-shot (of Densi of course!), if you guys want to give it a read...
