Chapter 26: FaceTime

"I can't believe this is how we have to see each other." Deeks complained to the screen face of Kensi.

"Well, there's no way you're getting up and they want me in bed until tomorrow so I'll come by tomorrow as soon as I can, I promise. " She said resolutely.

"Good. It's lonely in here without you by my side." He said with a smile.

"You have Callen, Sam, and Hetty coming in and out sitting with you." Kensi smirked.

"But none of them have your lips to kiss me better. " He answered with a grin.

"Clearly one less kidney doesn't mean you've lost your crude sense of humor." Kensi said with a half smile.

"What can I say? You bring out the best in me dear. Got your ring?"

Kesni laughed and raised up her hand to the iPad camera. Seeing the diamond sparkle on her hand brought a smile to Deeks' face.

"You look beautiful Kens."

"Oh yeah, sure. And you look like hell." She replied. Deeks chuckled at her bluntness.

"No arguments here. I certainly feel it." Deeks grunted as a wave of pain radiated from his side.

"Can I see it?" She asked hesitantly.

"The scar?" He asked for clarification. She bit her lip and nodded. Deeks pulled down the blanket from his bare chest and pointed the camera at it.

"It's big." She observed unable to portray emotion.

"Yeah." He replied emotionlessly.

"Does it hurt?" Kensi asked swallowing the lump in her throat that made her want to cry.

"Like hell. Pain meds aren't kicking in still. They're there because the big ass IV in my arm keeps pumping stuff through, but it's doing nothing for the pain in my side. It wears off after an hour or so."

"So ask for more."

"I can't. I do too much and I'll get seriously addicted. I don't want that to happen."

"Deeks, Marty, you're in pain, get some medicine, please." She begged unable to stand seeing him in pain.

"I'll be alright Princess." He said with a fake smile that Kensi knew all too well.

"I love you."

"I love you too Kens. I'll be alright sweetheart. I promise." He said sweetly with a small smile. It was all he could manage through the pain. A staggered yawn reverberated through his body. Deeks stopped midway as pain shot through his body. He muffled the sound for Kensi's sake and gave a weak smile.

"You should get some rest."

"I'll dream of you Princess." He said sweetly.

"Night Deeks." She replied with a smile.

"Night love." He said with a weak yawn. He ended the face time and set the iPad aside. He was grateful for Hetty letting them use her iPads so they could talk and see each other without breaking protocol. He yawned shallowly and let his eyes drift closed, filled with thoughts of his beautiful fiancé.
