Jack showered, dressed, and headed down to the mission at around 4:00 to speak with Hetty. When he got there the bull pen was empty, which he thought was probably for the best. He looked into Hetty's office, but that was empty as well. He heard voices coming from upstairs and decided to see if he had better luck there. After climbing the stairs he realized that the voices were coming from ops. When he walked in he was greeted by a little bit of a woman who had a whole lot of attitude and hostility.

"What do you want Jack?" She asked as she, all but pushed him, back out to the hallway.

"Um, do I know you?" Jack asked. He was pretty sure he would remember this fiery red head if they had met before. In fact if he had met her at any other time he was pretty sure he would have seduced her.

"No, you don't know me, but I know you, or at least I know who you are. What I don't know is what you are doing here right now."

"Wow, you don't mince words do you?" His only answer was a raised eyebrow so he decided it would be best to get on with it. "I'm looking for Hetty. Do you know where she is?"

"I know that she's not here, and she won't be back today. If you'll excuse me, I have work to do." Nell spotted another agent coming from the burn room and decided it would be best to get Jack out of here before any of the team returned. "Agent Bennet, could you please escort this gentleman out. His business here has been concluded."

Jack couldn't believe this little bit of a thing was having him removed from the building. Surely she couldn't have much authority. "Excuse me? Are you seriously having me removed?"

"As you can see." Nell said as she gestured for Agent Bennet to carry on.

"I will be speaking about this with Hetty. I hope you don't value your job too highly."

Nell wasn't intimidated in the least. "Please do. And if anyone should be questioning their continued employment I think it should probably be you. Good day." Nell quickly turned around and headed back into ops in order to get back to work.

Jack turned, shook off Agent Bennet's hand, which had grabbed hold of Jack's arm, and began walking down the stairs. "I can't believe you let that little girl order you around." Jack said, his voice dripping with disgust.

Agent Bennet gave Jack a warning look. "That 'little girl' is in charge around here when Hetty is out and Agent Callen has been known to be very protective of her, so I would show a little respect if I were you."

"You can't be serious! What the hell is going on around here!?" Jack spoke to no one as he exited the building. Agent Bennet, having heard him, gave a little chuckle. Having worked with Hetty for a couple of years, he knew the team closest to her heart was unconventional, but they always got the job done.

Jack was pissed. Seriously pissed, and embarrassed, about how he was treated at OSP. He was so done with all this nonsense about Kensi, he was beginning to wonder if she was worth it. After taking a quick walk around the block he cooled down enough to realize that Kensi was worth it. She was beautiful, smart, sexy (although she could use some work in bedroom from what he remembered, and he was very much looking forward to expanding her horizons as soon as he could), and apparently amazing at her job.

He knew Hetty wouldn't put just anybody on her pet team. Unfortunately that meant Deeks was probably more than he seemed as well. Oh well, he was pretty sure he could get Deeks out of the picture easy enough. All it would take is letting Hetty know that Deeks and Kensi were together romantically to get them separated at work, and then finding out a time that they were apart, using the bugs, and paying some busty bimbo to say she was banging Deeks on the side. He knew Kensi was insecure even before he left. It wouldn't take much to convince her that Deeks was just playing her. Kensi would be his again, and soon.

Jack jumped into his car, went to meet a guy to get the bugs and camera he needed and headed to Kensi's place. He was disappointed that he was unable to get into the computer system at ops to get Deeks' address so he could bug his place too, but this should be good enough. He quickly picked the lock on Kensi's door and went to work. He placed a bug in the kitchen, living room, and bedroom, and placed the camera in the living room. The angle the camera was at really the living room, kitchen, and most of the dining area. He knew he was probably just torturing himself with the camera, but he wanted to be able see their interactions and figure out if they were serious or just shagging. He then went to his hotel, checked out, and then checked into a motel that was close enough to Kensi's place to be able to receive the video and sound feed from Kensi's house.

It was almost 8:00 by the time he saw Deeks and Kensi come into the house, dinner in hand. As soon as they closed the front door Kensi put the cups of soda she was carrying down and spun around, embracing Deeks and lifting kissing him very passionately. Deeks dropped the food and returned the embrace, letting his hands wander. Kensi was the one to pull away first saying "Food. We should eat."

"Right, food, and then fun." Deeks said with a wink.

Jack watched as Kensi brought the drinks over to the coffee table and flipped on the T.V while Deeks picked the food bags up off the floor and brought them over to the couch and sat down, leaning his back on the arm of the couch and placing one leg behind Kensi. Once he was in position, Kensi placed Deeks' drink on the floor next to him and reached back, collecting her burger from Deeks. She then turned her own body to the side and leaned back against Deeks' chest and put her legs up on the couch as well. It looked like a well-practiced maneuver. How long did Sabatino say they were together? Did he even say? He would have to ask tomorrow.

Jack's thoughts came to abrupt end as voices began coming over the listening device, demanding Jack's attention. "What are we watching tonight Fern?" Deeks asked as his hand that wasn't holding his food came around Kensi's waist. "I think Here Comes Honey Boo Boo is on tonight. You up for that?"

"I'm up for whatever you want tonight, Princess." Jack could see that Deeks was rubbing himself against Kensi's backside as he said that. He was just waiting for Kensi to fly off the handle about him calling her Princess. He was never allowed to use pet names with her. What was with Fern anyway? He was curious about that one but Princess, that was never going to fly. Surprisingly Kensi didn't even seem fazed by the name and she laughed, actually laughed, about his crudeness. Jack remembered multiple times Kensi got upset with him for making sexual suggestions during the day, even in the privacy for their own house. She said it made her feel like that was all he cared about, or some such nonsense. Maybe this was just about sex and that was why she didn't care? That didn't seem like something Kensi would do, but who knows, people change.

"Food first, big boy." Kensi said before leaning her head back for a quick kiss. "I have to have some energy if I'm going to keep up with you tonight."

Jack watched on as he saw Deeks' hand creep under Kensi's shirt and work his way up to her breasts. Kensi, not seeming to mind Deeks' wandering hand, took a bite of her burger and then moaned. "That better have been for me and not for that hamburger." Deeks whispered in her ear.

Jack was disgusted with what he was watching, but was glad he paid the extra money for the more sensitive equipment that could pick up on even their whispers. Of course the fact that the bug was placed in the lamp right next to their heads helped too.

Kensi quickly took the last bite of her hamburger and then reached down to unbutton and unzip her jeans before pulling Deeks' hand out of her shirt and putting it where she really wanted it, in her pants. Deeks was surprised with her boldness. "Guess that answers that question." He said.

"Mmmm…"Kensi answered, enjoying the feeling of Deeks stroking her.

Deeks also finished his burger and then brought his now free hand up and began to run it through her hair. "Honey, do you remember that case we worked in the rehab center?"

"Do you mean the one where you played the sex addict?"

"Yeah, that one. I'm starting to wonder if there isn't some kind of truth to that."

Kensi laughed and then noticed that Deeks fingers had stilled. "Are you serious right now?"

"Yes, Kens I want you all the time. It's never enough! Baby, I had you 8 times on Sunday and I wanted you more. The only thing that stopped me was how sore you were."

Kensi leaned her head back so she could look at him. "Babe, I wanted you just as much every time. I don't think us wanting each other is a bad thing. Do you?"

"Well, no. I just don't want to hurt you, or make you feel like you have to do it just because I want to."

"Deeks, I have never felt obligated. I love you so much, and part of that love is physical. I love showing you how much I love you. I love that we have gone to some new places together and I love that you want me as much as I want you. Besides, we have 5 months to make up for. I think we're allowed to be ridiculous for a while."

"You're the best Kensi. Really. I love you so much I don't even know how to put it into words."

"Then show me." Kensi said with a smile before Deeks lips came down onto hers.

"WHAT THE HELL!" Jack yelled at the top of his lungs before he punched the wall, putting a hole in it. "Damn it!" He said. "Just what I needed."

Jack began to pace the small motel room, talking out loud, trying to make sense of everything he just heard and saw. "What does she think she's doing? Shoving his hand down her pants? 8 times in a day? She loves him? AND WHAT THE HELL IS WITH ALL THE PET NAMES?!"

Jack was angry, not only because the woman he wanted to marry was with someone else, but also because Kensi and Deeks' relationship was everything his and Kensi's relationship hadn't been. Everything he had wanted with her. He was jealous and angry and was now more focused than ever on breaking them up, if for no other reason than to make them feel the kind of pain he was feeling now. Of course the idea that he wouldn't be feeling that pain if he wouldn't have invaded their privacy never entered his mind.

Now that the Jack was no longer yelling or talking to himself he noticed the grunting and moaning coming from the listening device. As he went to turn the sound off so he didn't have to listen to Kensi and Deeks going at it he realized that he also had a visual of this show. He slammed the laptop closed and marched out of the room, heading to the closest bar.
