They brought Ben home and Deeks drove home.

"Deeks" Kensi whispered.

"Hmm.." Deeks said.

"You need to tell her"

"Tell her what?"

"About your dad"

Deeks sighed, knowing that she was right. After today, Zoey had a lot of questions. They arrived at the house and walked inside. Zoey sat in the living room and turned on the TV and was followed by Kensi and Deeks.

"Zoey" Deeks said.

Zoey looked away from the TV and looked at her father.

"We need to talk"

"I'll give you some space" Kensi said and walked out.

"Listen, I know skipping school was bad but I found stuff and we got the guy an-" Zoey said quickly.

"Not about that"

"Okay, what then?"

"You know the way I said my father died when I was a baby and then today you saw him, very much alive?"

Zoey nodded her head.

"Well uh I said that because I really didn't want to have this conversation but uh in my house, when I was a kid, it was a domestic violence situation"

"He hit you and your mom?"

"Yeah, until I shot him"

"Dad.." Zoey said with tears in her eyes.

Deeks put out his arms and she walked over and hugged him. She sat on his lap and squeezed him tightly.

"It's okay" Deeks said as he stroked her hair, fighting his tears.

"Why did he do that?"

"I don't know... because he was a horrible man"

"I'm so sorry"

"For what?"

"You could have killed him but since I was there, you couldn't"

"Zoe, he had a gun to your head and I would prefer you to be alive and okay over him any day"

Zoey smiled. Deeks looked at his watch and saw it was almost 12.

"Go to bed, get some sleep, you have school tomorrow"

Zoey nodded her head and kissed his cheek.

"Night dad. Love you"

"Goodnight. I love you too"

Zoey went to bed and Kensi walked in.

"You okay?" Kensi said and sat next to him.

"Yeah"

"How did she take it?"

"Uh, she was upset, I mean that's predictable right?"

"Yeah but are you good?"

"Kens, I'm fine"

"Deeks..."

"Alright, it was hard seeing him but I'm over it"

Kensi looked at him and he avoided eye contact. Kensi placed her hand on his cheek and he slowly looked into her eyes.

"It's okay to be sad"

Deeks nodded his head and tears slowly started to trickle down his cheek and onto Kensi's hand. Kensi hugged him and rubbed his back.

"It's okay" Kensi whispered into his ear.

A minute later, Deeks pulled back.

"You good?"

"Yeah, let's go to bed"

Kensi nodded her head.
