CHAPTER 15: MARTY GOES UNDERCOVER…

MARTY…
MARTY'S CAR…

THE PRECINT PARKING LOT…

APRIL 6th…

Marty pulled into a parking space and sat there for a moment. Then he slammed his hands against the steering wheel.

He was still a little mad about the 'joke' Kensi had made, but at the same time, he knew that Kensi loved him.

To hear her say how unlucky she was to have him as a partner, though, had hurt.

Half the LAPD didn't trust him, at times he wondered if Sam and Callen trusted him, Josie seemed to trust him, and Hetty obviously trusted him.

Kensi was the one he trusted more than anyone else, though, and he thought she had felt the same, because of something she had once told him…

She had looked at him with tears in her eyes and whispered…

FLASHBACK *

"Because you're my partner and this is my mother...and you're the only person I trust." Kensi had told him.

* END FLASHBACK

Kensi said she trusted him when she could trust no one else.

Finally, Marty got out of the car and headed inside to talk to Bates about the Undercover OP…

INSIDE THE PRECINT…

"NCIS finally get tired of you, Deeks? Where's your smokin' hot wife? I thought you didn't go anywhere without her! I would love a piece of her great looking ass!" A Detective called, as Marty made his way through the precinct, and Deeks felt his blood boiling.

Marty heard a few laughs from several other cops who did not get along with him and turned to face the cop who had made the comments about NCIS and Kensi…

Detective Caleb Rollins

Marty was about to punch Detective Caleb Rollins for what he said when…

"Deeks," Bates called. Marty started to head to Bates office, still out of earshot of Bates, Marty turned back to Detective Rollins.

"You want to talk about wives, Rollins? Are you still cheating on your wife or did she get smart and leave your sorry ass?" Marty shot back.

Marty then turned and walked into Bates office for the meeting.

BATES OFFICE…

"How are you doing, Deeks? How are Kensi and the kids?" Bates asked as Marty sat down.

"Why do you want to know? You said something about an undercover assignment for me." Marty countered. "Yeah, I hate to pull you away from your family, but I need you on this one…" Bates said as he looked at Marty and noticed something off about the detective.

"What's the assignment?" Marty asked, looking at Bates. "I need you to…" Bates explained the assignment to Marty and handed him a folder with the details.

"When do I go under?" Marty asked after Bates was done explaining. "Tomorrow…" Bates told him.

For a moment, Marty looked over the file of information and then looked at Bates.

"Okay, I guess I'll go…"

Marty said at last.

"...But this will be my last assignment with the LAPD. When I come back, I think I'm going to join NCIS as an Agent," Marty told Bates and stood up to leave.

"So, you're finally going to let Ms. Lange steal one of my finest Detectives?" Bates asked. "She prefers to be called Hetty, and I feel more at home there then I have anywhere else," Marty explained and got up to leave.

"Deeks…"

Bates called and with a hand on the knob Marty looked back at Bates.

"Be sure that's what you want, Kid, and if it is, all I can say is good luck," Bates told him, and Marty nodded, before leaving Bates' office.

OUTSIDE THE PRECINT…

Once outside the precinct, Marty took a deep breath and headed for his car.

Now it was time to go to the mission and tell Kensi.

THE MISSION…

THE BULLPEN…

KENSI…

Kensi looked at the time again...two hours.

Marty had said he would be back in about an hour, just as Kensi was about to reach into the snack drawer of Marty's desk for the third Twinkie in two hours, a hand closed around her wrist, stopping her.

She looked into ocean blue eyes…

"Stealing from my desk, Princess? I think I'm going to have to arrest you for that." Marty joked as he sat down. "I was hungry and you were not here…" Kensi told him with a shrug.

"Kensi's been eating her feelings again," Sam said, and Kensi glared at Sam.

"Eating your feelings again, huh? Would you be feeling guilty?" Marty asked, and Kensi turned her glare to Marty who was smiling at her. "No…" Kensi denied. "Or maybe...maybe you were just missing me." Marty teased.

"Marty…" Kensi warned. "Kensi…" Marty mocked. "What did Bates have to say?" Kensi asked, changing the subject.

"Oh, subject change now? Okay, I'll play among…"

Marty said, but his smile faded.

"...Bates is sending me undercover tomorrow night," Marty said.

When Marty said he would be going undercover, he got the attention of Sam, Callen, and Josie.

"How long?" Kensi asked. "I don't know, Kens. But I told Bates this would be my last undercover with the LAPD. I've decided to join NCIS as an Agent." Marty said with a smile, and everyone looked at him in shock.

"Y-you what?" Kensi asked, not sure if she had heard right. "I'm going to sign the paperwork and become an NCIS Agent, Partner. Unless, of course, you don't want me to." Marty said his smile faded once more. "You're going to join NCIS?" Kensi asked again as a smile lit her face.

"I have this last assignment with Bates, and then I'll be here full time. That was one of the things I was talking to Hetty about before I left to go meet with Bates." Marty told her with a smile of her own.

"You do know Hetty has been trying to recruit you from the day you started working here, don't you, Marty?" Callen asked, and Marty looked at him. "Yeah, I kind of figured it out," Marty told him.

"So why did you decide to sign the papers to become an Agent now?" Sam asked. "Guess it was just time, and this way the LAPD can't pull me away from my family to send me undercover anymore. I should have done it sooner." Marty replied with a shrug.

APRIL 6th…

16:00 HOURS…

Kensi had taken the day off work as Marty prepared to go undercover that evening.

They had taken Matty to pre-school and Emma to daycare to spend the day together, before picking both kids up early.

Now it was time for Marty to leave and go undercover.

Emma was crying and not letting go of Marty, as Matty tried to be a big boy and not cry.

Kensi hated it every time he had to go undercover without her, though she had gotten used to it the last few times Marty had gone undercover since they got married…

Kensi couldn't help but feel there was something different about this time and wanted to tell Marty not to go.

KENSI & MARTY'S HOUSE…

With Emma hugging Marty with all her might, Marty knelt in front of Monty.

Matty was standing between Monty and Kensi.

"Okay, Monty, you are the dog of the house while…" Marty began; Kensi let out a snort and rolled her eyes.

"Really, Marty...you're giving

'The man of the house speech'

Too Monty," Kensi asked, and Marty looked up at her.

"Actually, Fern, I was giving Monty

'The dog of the house speech'

And he understands. Don't you, Monty?" Marty asked, scratching Monty behind the ears and standing up with Emma still in his arms.

"Don't go, daddy." Matty pleaded, and though Matty tried to hide it you could see the tears in his ocean blue eyes.

Marty looked at his son before kneeling in front of him. They always had the same conversation when Marty went undercover.

"I have to, bud, but I'll be back as soon as I can. I need you to help your mom, though, okay?" Marty asked and gave Matty a hug with his free arm.

Then both Emma and Matty were crying. after a minute, Marty stood up so that he was facing Kensi.

"Guess it's time for you to go, huh?" Kensi asked, and Marty gave a sad smile. "Yeah, but don't worry, Fern...I'll be back and I'm not mad at you anymore about what happened yesterday," Marty said, and Kensi laughed at what he said.

'Don't worry, Fern, I'll be back.' She remembered the first time he had said that.

Finally, Kensi took Emma in her arms, though the 1-year-old put up a fight.

Marty kissed Kensi, trying to keep in mind the kids were in the room…

Then opening the door and with a last glance...Marty left for an undercover assignment.

Kensi felt a sort of emptiness without him, but remembered what he had said about this being his last assignment with the LAPD, and then he would be a full-time NCIS Agent.

Kensi closed the door and walked with both kids into the living room, Monty right behind them.

"How about pizza for dinner?" Kensi suggested, and Matty only nodded his head sadly in agreement.

"When will daddy be home?" Matty asked.

"As soon as he can," Kensi answered and hoped that this assignment would wrap up quickly.
