SUMMARY:
Kensi and Deeks are having a movie night at his apartment, he tells her something before she leaves. What does Deeks tell her and what will happen?
CHAPTER 11: QUESTIONS...
After a few hours of bowling...Nell and Kensi beat Marty and Eric, only because Kensi had gotten the first strike.
KENSI SRX...
"I hope Nell or Eric got a shot of what happened when your bowling ball landed in my lane." Kensi said with a smile. "You're never going to let that go are you?" Marty asked and Kensi glanced at him with a smile still on her face.
"Nope, because I know you wouldn't let it go." Kensi shot back and Marty leaned his head back against the seeat and looked at her with a smile of his own.
"Fine, let's see...we've had breakfast, the beach and bowling. So what's next, Fern?" Marty inquired. "You will find out when we get there." Kensi informed him.
"Why are you being so secretive today?" Marty asked. "Because I can, I could be mean and make you close your eyes again." Kensi warned.
"I've been having fun today and I have a question, but if I ask...you said you would make me close my eyes. So I guess I can wait until we get where we're going..." Marty said with a smirk, because he knew it wouldn't be long before Kensi's curiousity got the better of her.
Kensi didn't say anything as she continued to drive, but bit her lip. She wanted to know, but at the same time...she knew he was challenging her.
"Kensalina..." Marty said in a sing song voice still grinning. "What?" Kensi asked automatically.
"Ah, I thought you would never ask. So we've been on two dates, right? What are we now?" Marty asked in a serious voice and Kensi looked at him, swerving a llittle as she returned her eyes to the road.
"What are you talking about?" Kensi asked though she had a feeling she knew where he was going with this. "Are we a couple now or what?" Marty asked uncertainty in his voice.
"What did you just say?" Kensi asked knowing what she heard.
"We've been on two dates and we've told each other I love you, so what does that make us?" Marty asked again.
Kensi went quiet as she thought about her answer, she still felt scared...but not as much as before.
"How about we talk about this back at your apartment? I don't think it would be a good conversation to have while the car is moving." Kensi said at last. "So we're going back to my apartment, huh?" Marty asked his grin getting bigger.
"Okay, where is the blindfold and the duct tape?" Kensi muttered. "Oh, I like where this is going. Getting some ideas for more fun times together?" Marty joked.
"Oh my God, Marty, I was talking about duct tape to shut you up!" Kensi exclaimed feeling a blush creeping onto her face. "Oh, so you wouldn't use it to tie me to the bed and have your way with me? Is that a blush I see on the face of Kensi Marie Blye?" Marty continued to tease.
Kensi was ready to hit him, until she remembered whe they had talked about on the way to the bowling alley.
FLASHBACK*
"Okay, close your eyes and no peeking." Kensi warned glancing at Marty as Nell and Eric followed in the car behine them. "What will I see if I open them?" Marty asked suggestively. "My fist hitting your shoulder." Kensi replied. "What is it with you abusing me? Does it turn you on or something?" Marty asked with his eyes still closed.
"No and you never try to stop me. So do you enjoy it?" Kensi asked without thinking, but did not see the dark look that crossed Marty's face.
"NO and the reason I don't try to stop you is...I don't want to be like my dad." Marty confessed and this time Kensi did glance at him. "Marty, I'm sorry..." Kensi began, but Marty felt around for her hand taking it in his own. "It's okay, Kens." He said not sounding at all okay.
"Dammit, Marty, it's not okay and I thought we were trying to talk to each other now. Don't lie to me and say it's okay when I know it's not." Kensi said pulling into a parking space and shutting the car off.
0900 HOURS...
THE PARKING LOT...
AMF EL DORADO LANES...
"Okay, so it hurt when you said that. Are we there yet? How long do I have to keep my eyes closed?" Marty asked.
"Yes, we're here, but you have to keep your eyes closed until I say open them. I want you to use your detective skills to figure out where we are before you open them." Kensi told him with a smile as she reluctantly let go of his hand and got out of the car as Marty did the same.
* END FLASHBACK
It was a conversation she wanted to have with him, but like she had said not in the car.
"Shut up, Marty..."
Kensi replied staying focused on the road as she turned into the parking lot of Marty's apartment building.
She pulled into a parking space and shut off the car, then got out of the car.
"...You show up at my house at 7 am, which means that Monty has been locked up in your apartment for a while and probably needs to go out. Then we can continue our conversation." Kensi told him. "Okay...the conversation about what I asked you on the way here?" Marty asked to clarify they were talking about the same thing.
"Yes, now let's go." Kensi said as she started to walk up to his apartment. "Are you going to walk Monty with me or wait here until I get back?" Marty inquired. "I'll wait here if it's okay." Kensi replied.
"That's cool, if you want to order take out...I'll pay for it when I get back with Monty." Marty said as he ulocked the door and opened it, letting Kensi go in ahead of him.
INSIDE MARTY'S APARTMENT...
"What do you feel like eating?" Kensi asked. "I don't care...you choose. Come on, Monty, let's go for a walk." Marty called and it was not long after Marty left closing the door behind him.
KENSI...
Kensi thought about what Marty had said on the way to the apartment as she looked through the take out menus trying to decide what to eat...
FLASHBACK *
"We've been on two dates and we've told each other I love you, so what does that make us?" Marty asked again.
*END FLASHBACK
Marty had seemed so unsure when he asked her what they were.
"What the hell had he been talking about on the way here? They had both said I love you?
Kensi racked her brain trying to think of when she could have said those words to Marty, but she had never actually said the words I love you.
Maybe he just assumed , but if he had...he was right.
She was in love with Martin Andrew Deeks and wanted to talk about their 'thing' before, but then thought of what could happen if they actually started dating.
Things were different now though, because today had been their second date...Marty Deeks had broken her first date rule and at this thought Kensi smiled.
MARTY...
Marty smiled as he walked Monty...he and Kensi were finally going to talk about their 'thing' and where they stood.
He was ready for this talk, yet at the same time...nervous as could be.
15 MINUTES LATER...
INSIDE MARTY'S APARTMENT...
Kensi was sitting on the couch lost in her thoughts and didn't seem to notice Marty and Monty's return...
