CHAPTER 7: BABY NAMES & A DOCTOR'S VISIT…
THE DEEKS HOUSEHOLD…
MARTY & KENSI'S BEDROOM…
Marty and Kensi had put Matty to bed a few hours ago…
Now they had their pillows propped against the headboard and were looking at the baby book for names again. Kensi had the baby book in her hands, while Marty had a notebook and pen, writing down the names they liked.
"Destiny...because it was destiny that brought us together," Marty said with a smile, and Kensi looked at him. "I thought you said you were going to be more serious…" Kensi reminded him. "I am, it's just an idea," Marty said with a shrug. "Fine, write it down and I'll think about it," Kensi replied.
Then, looking at the book, Kensi flipped through a few more pages before stopping…
"Emma?" Kensi suggested, and Marty nodded, writing it down. "Okay, how about Dominic for a boy's name?" Marty threw out, thinking of Kensi's former partner before him.
"Yeah, that s-sounds g-good. Uhhhgggg, I hate these hormones!" Kensi groaned and the tears filled her eyes as she thought of her former partner before Marty...Dominic Vail.
Marty put down the pen and notebook, then reached over to wipe the tears from her eyes.
"Okay, so far we have Destiny, Dominic, Emma, and...Rose," Marty remarked with a smile at her, and Kensi laughed. "Rose?" Kensi questioned. "Yes, because Titanic is your favorite movie, and I know the thought crossed your mind. So don't even try to deny it." Marty warned.
"Emma Rose…"
Kensi said, testing the name, and then nodded her head in agreement with a smile.
"...I like it." She said and raised the baby book once more to look for other names.
More names were thrown out and written down, both boys' names and girls' names…
Grace or Gracie…
Hillary…
Jade…
Joy…
Kelly…
Keely…
Libby…
Louise…
Stacey…
Austin…
Caleb…
Cole…
Grant…
Hunter…
Scott…
Steven…
"I think that's enough names to choose from," Kensi said, putting the book on the bedside table and then looking at the notebook in Marty's hands.
After one last glance, Marty put the notebook and pen on his bedside table.
"So, do you like the name Emma Rose for a girl?" Kensi inquired. "Yeah, what about a boy's name?" Marty asked. "We still have time to think about that, but I think this baby is a girl," Kensi told him with a smirk. "Really, you think this baby is a girl, huh?" Marty shot back. "It's more of the fact I don't want any more than two kids," Kensi explained as her eyes began to droop and she fought a yawn.
"I know, Wonder Woman. We'll find out tomorrow if this baby is the little girl we want. I think it's time we try to get some sleep, because I don't think you'll be able to keep your eyes open much longer." Marty commented as he turned out his lamp.
Then Marty rolled onto his side, and his hand landed on her abdomen as he nuzzled her neck.
"Night, Marty." Kensi's voice was a whisper as she intertwined their fingers. "Night, Princess, I love you." He whispered, kissing the back of her neck. "Love you to…" Kensi muttered back.
A FEW HOURS LATER…
It seemed as though they had just fallen asleep when they were woken up by a scream from Matty's room.
Getting out of bed as fast as they could, they made their way to Matty's room.
MATTY'S ROOM…
When they reached Matty's side, the little boy was sweating and crying in his sleep.
Kensi began to rub Matty's back, and Marty stood beside Kensi watching in amazement.
"It's okay, Matty. You're safe...mommy and daddy are here." Kensi kept repeating, and it seemed like a long time before Matty finally calmed down.
Then Marty and Kensi just stood watching Matty sleep for a few minutes before turning to leave the room.
"How did you know what to do?" Marty asked curiously once they stepped into the hall. "I talked to Josie, and I've been reading some books," Kensi responded as they lay back down in their bed. "You're an amazing mom, you know," Marty told her as they lay, so they were facing each other.
"I was so scared when Matty was born. I never thought I would be a good mom…" Kensi admitted.
"Yeah, but you are. I was determined to be a better dad than the one I had. Ray had the same thought when he learned Jenna was pregnant. Hey, I just realized something…" Marty began.
"What's that?" Kensi inquired. "Ray and Jenna's second child is the same age as Matty," Marty told her with a smile.
"Ray wanted a better life for his kids, and you wanted a better life for your kids. I understand that feeling, Partner." Kensi replied. "OUR kids, Kens, Matty, and this little one," Marty remarked, placing a hand on her abdomen once more.
A few minutes later, they fell asleep…
APRIL 7th…
06:30 AM…
Marty woke up with Kensi's face in the crook of his neck, one arm across his waist, and one of her legs between his. He could feel his erection and groaned.
"I guess surfing is out this morning," Marty muttered and tried to move without waking Kensi up.
"Marty…" Kensi mumbled into his neck, not letting him go. "Are you awake, Kensi?" Marty asked, but did not get a response.
He put one hand on her abdomen, he felt something and wondered if Kensi felt it too, when Kensi's eyes popped open.
"I think the baby just moved…" Kensi said, moving her head a little so she could look him in the eyes. "Ready to find out if this baby is a boy or girl today, Princess?" Marty questioned, and Kensi kissed him.
"Definitely, but it seems that you want something else this morning. Since we have the morning off for our appointment…" Kensi let the sentence trail, but kissed him again, this time with more passion as her hand drifted down his body.
Marty smiled into the kiss and let out a groan as she began to stroke him. It wasn't long after that Marty slipped the shirt Kensi had been wearing off, and the boxers he was wearing soon followed.
Then he started to trail kisses down Kensi's body, until he was between her legs.
"M-M-Marty, need y-you now…" Kensi panted.
A HALF AN HOUR LATER…
"I think we'd better go take a shower and get ready to go. Plus, Matty will be up soon." Kensi told him. "I like how this morning started," Marty said with a grin.
"Yeah, morning sex to get you going," Kensi said, rolling her eyes. "Hey, you started it." Marty protested as they got up. "No, you started it. You don't think I didn't feel how hard you were this morning?" Kensi asked.
"That's only because of a very hot woman in my bed. Want to take a shower together and save some time?" Marty asked. "No, because it would take us longer. Besides, what if Matty wakes up while we're in the shower?" Kensi replied, and Marty looked disappointed.
So, Kensi went to take a shower, while Marty went to start the coffee and make breakfast.
15 MINUTES LATER…
Marty had already finished making breakfast when he turned around. Kensi walked into the kitchen with Matty on her hip.
"Just in time for breakfast," Marty said with a smile. "Looks good, Partner," Kensi replied as she put Matty in his highchair. "Chocolate chip pancakes, bacon, eggs, and some juice," Marty told her, setting the juice on the table.
"Go take a shower, after breakfast, I'll get Matty ready, and then we can head for our appointment…" Kensi suggested.
"All right, try to get some of the food in your mouth, buddy," Marty told Matty and started to leave the kitchen.
"I might have the Woody ready; by the time you're done in the shower," Kensi told him with a huge smile, and when Marty looked back at her...she laughed.
"As long as you don't put any stems in it this time…" Marty shot back. "That was on time that I put stems in it, and it was the first time I made it. Now go take a shower." Kensi responded.
"I think I'd better take a cold shower this morning. Not cool, Fern." Marty commented as he walked out of the kitchen, and Kensi laughed again.
"Aunt Nell and Uncle Eric are going to take you to daycare this morning…" Kensi told Matty as he continued to make a mess of his breakfast. "Mo'ty…" Matty said, pointing at Monty.
"No, Monty can't go," Kensi told him.
After breakfast, Kensi had gotten Matty cleaned up, and it had been another twenty minutes before they walked out the door.
TWENTY MINUTES LATER…
THE BEALE HOUSEHOLD…
They had dropped Matty off with Nell and Eric, so that Nell and Eric could drop Matty off at daycare with Ryan.
08:45 AM…
THE DOCTOR'S OFFICE…
"Kensi Deeks!" The nurse called.
Marty and Kensi followed the nurse down the hall to a room.
"The doctor will be in here in just a few minutes." The nurse told them. "Thanks," Marty said, as the nurse left and closed the door behind her.
Kensi climbed up on the bed, and Marty sat down in the chair.
"You know how ere were looking at baby names last night?" Kensi asked. "Yeah, we still have to decide on a name for a boy," Marty answered.
"Well, this baby is supposed to be born in September...I was looking at the back of the baby book at the signs. The baby's sign will be Virgo, and one of the plants of a Virgo is…" Kensi stopped with a grin appearing on her face.
"So...are you going to tell me or make me guess?" Marty asked. "A Fern," Kensi said at last.
"You're making that up." Marty accused. "You think so, huh?" Kensi asked as she pulled out the book of baby names and handed it to him.
Marty opened the book to a page she had marked…
"Pansy, Hyacinth, Aster, Chrysanthemum, Ivy and...FERN." Marty read out loud, and Kensi gave him a smug look.
After Kensi found out she was pregnant with her and Marty's second child, she started having appointments with Dr. Casey McKinney.
After what happened when Kensi had been pregnant with Matty, Marty had run a background check on Dr. McKinney.
Marty and Kensi had talked to Dr. McKinney a little about how Matty was reacting to the idea he was going to be a big brother.
Dr. McKinney said she understood, because she had two kids who were three years apart.
Though her kids were teenagers now, she remembered what it had been like.
A few minutes later, Dr. McKinney came into the room.
"How are you feeling today, Kensi?" Dr. McKinney asked.
"Good…" Kensi responded and went on to tell the doctor what she needed to know. "Okay, if you want to lie back, we can see your baby. Do you want to find out the sex of the baby today?" Dr. McKinney asked.
"Yes." Marty and Kensi said together.
"Okay, let's see…"
Dr. McKinney ran the wand over Kensi's abdomen.
"...Looks like a girl." Dr. McKinney told them with a smile. "A girl," Kensi said with tears in her eyes.
"A little princess…" Marty said, looking at the screen and then at Kensi. "Emma Rose Deeks," Kensi said as she looked away from the screen and at Marty, who nodded.
Kensi and Marty were able to hear the heartbeat, then, after the appointment ended, Kensi and Marty headed out to make the next appointment.
THE CAR…
"Think the tears will be gone by the time we get back to work?" Marty teased as he climbed into the driver's seat, and Kensi tried to glare at him. "Hey, we need to make a stop on the way to work. I want to get some ice cream." Kensi told him, and he looked at her.
"Do I even know what you want with the ice cream?" Marty asked cautiously. "Hmmmmm, now that you mentioned it, Rocky Road ice cream with cucumbers and green peppers sounds good. I want to get some milk to." Kensi shot back, grinning at him.
Marty just shook his head with a chuckle as he started the car.
"Whatever you want, Fern," Marty told her as he started the car. "Then let's go...our daughter and I are hungry." Kensi declared.
"Riiiiiggggghhhhttttt, I think it's you who wants the ice cream and Emma who wants the vegetables and milk. Because the Kensi I know loves her junk food." Marty teased. "Keep it up and you will be sleeping on the couch." Kensi warned.
THE MISSION…
MARTY'S PARKING SPOT…
After making a stop to get the cucumbers, green peppers, ice cream, and milk...they finally made it to work.
"Ready to go tell everyone about our baby being a girl," Marty asked, reaching in the back seat to grab the milk and their bags for work, as Kensi grabbed the ice cream, cucumbers, and green peppers.
"Let's go," Kensi told him with a grin and making sure she had the ultrasound pictures.
THE BULLPEN…
"Looks like you finally turned him into a pack mule, Kens." Callen joked.
"Hey, I'm right here, you know! Besides, she carried in the ultrasound pictures, ice cream, and vegetables." Marty protested. "I'm also carrying our child, or did you forget?" Kensi remarked.
"Oh, I haven't forgotten...trust me," Marty said, shooting her a grin.
"Why are you two late for work anyway?" Callen asked. "Are Kensi and I late for work, or are you just early?" Marty countered, and Kensi snorted. "We had an appointment to find out the baby is…" Kensi began. "A girl, Kensi and I are having a girl…" Marty finished.
"Have you thought of any names, or are you still arguing?" Sam asked.
"We had Dominic chosen as a boy's name, but never had a middle name chosen," Kensi told them, and then looked at Marty. "The name we came up with for a girl, Emma Rose Deeks," Marty said as Kensi pulled out the bucket of ice cream and vegetables.
Marty got a cup of milk for her. Callen and Sam gave Kensi a funny look when they saw what she was doing, putting the vegetables into the ice cream. "What? It's what I was craving." Kensi said with a shrug.
After that, a conversation started between Josie and Kensi about the different food cravings that Josie had while pregnant with Sadie and when Kensi was pregnant with Matty.
Seeing the looks on Sam, Callen, and Marty's faces as Josie and Kensi talked about some of their cravings was hilarious.
After Kensi finished her snack of ice cream and vegetables and after several more cups of milk...the team finally set to work on the case reports. Every once in a while, Kensi's hand would drift down to rest on her abdomen.
When this happened for the fifth time, Marty looked over at her with a smile.
"Is Emma kicking again?" He asked, and Kensi nodded, before taking his hand so he could feel their daughter kick.
