Drabble: Kensi has to dogsit her neighbors pooch, and ropes Deeks (and Monty to help.) – requested by godyoutalkpretty on tumblr.
Deeks stares confused at the text he just received from his partner.
S.O.S. my place. Need you and Monty. asap. xo Kens
He understood that usually they help each other get rid of some dates gone wrong or some other men and women that hit at them without them wanting to. The code was always send and 's.o.s.' and then the current bar or club they were at.
"What did she do?" Deeks asked his dog while grabbing his keys and Monty's leash and the two of them got in the car. After a few minutes drive to her place he stared at the apartment door. Shaking his head he got out of the car and made his way up, knocking hesitantly on her door. The door opened but just a slit, her peeking through it.
"Thank god you're here." She opened the door and ushered him in quickly.
"So what exactly is wrong? How can I help?" Deeks looked around the room and noticed nothing out of ordinary, not even two glasses of wine or beer. Nothing that hinted at a male occupant still being here.
"My neighbor.. he has some event tonight and she saw me getting in my apartment and asked for a favor and I couldn't say no, because it's the lady from next door you know? The one that thinks Sam and Callen are a couple because they always arrive together at my apartment."
"oh that one." He grins, remembering that sweet elder lady asking him how their friends were.
"Yeah she asked me to dogsit and I am useless." She sighs and points to the kitchen where the dog cured up in a corner. "I already set out food and water, put a bowl with food next to it, he's got his dog bed in that corner." She points over to the dog bed. "and that pooch is not doing anything but sitting in the corner of my kitchen. I already walked her too." She sighs.
"Monty, go check." Deeks just said and pulled Kensi to her couch and sat down beside her. Not a few minutes later both dogs came out of the kitchen and chased each other around the living room.
"Wha- How?" Kensi looked after the two dogs and then back at Deeks.
"I'm a dog whisperer." He laughs when she punches him. "Just kidding, ow, stop hitting me." When she stopped he explained. "Just figured that maybe that pooch needed a play buddy because Monty mopes like that when Auntie Kensi doesn't come to play with him." He grins and swiftly but expertly avoids the next punch.
"Shut up."
"It's true.. he's always whinning.. like he wants to say 'Auntie Keenenssiiii, where are you?' and when he starts howling it's real bad." The slap on his chest just makes him laugh harder.
"But why wouldn't she play with me and the toys?"
"Oh you know, sometimes they need someone of their own to play with." Suddenly he starts grinning and that meant nothing good. "You wanna play too, Fern?" his grin growing. "Wanna play with me? We can play grown up games." The smirk didn't even make it on his face because she was hitting him, him avoiding her by standing up and running away from her, and so her apartment was filled with happy barks and laughing with occasional slapping sounds and 'ow's from Deeks.
