"I think I want to quit nursing, Deeks." I say as I look down and play with my fingers.

"What are you talking about? You love being a nurse! You've wanted to be one since we met!" Deeks says as he walks over from the hospital window overlooking the skyline of Los Angeles.

"I like having the power to save people, Deeks. That's what I really enjoy doing. It's something I've always wanted to do," I pause as I grab Deeks' hand. "I want to help people in a different way, Deeks. I want to become an NCIS agent."

Deeks looks at me with a shocked face.

"Are you sure you want to give up everything to become a federal agent?" He asks me as he caresses the side of my cheek.

"I want this Deeks, but I won't quit now, I'll wait till I have the baby, and maybe start in a year or so." I say with a small smile.

"Why an NCIS agent, Kens? Why but LAPD?" Deeks asks curiously.

"I want to help people like you, Deeks. Marine and Navy personnel. Stop people from going through what I went through, that's what I want."

Deeks looks down at our hands and smiles.

"If that's what you want, I'll support you the entire way." Deeks says as he seals the deal with a kiss.

"We're home!" Deeks yells as he pulls the SRX into the sand covered driveway.

I step out of the car and breath in the wonderful scent of the salty air.

"I missed the ocean!" I say as I put my arms out like Rose from Titanic (my favourite movie by the way) and close me eyes.

"It's nice to be back home!" I say as I feel the cool, morning air tickle my skin.

"It's wonderful having you back home, honey." Deeks says as he takes a sleeping Liam from the car.

"I don't know how you do it all, Kens. The laundry, the cleaning, and I'm actually surprised you can actually cook now." Deeks wonders a loud as he unlocks the front door.

"I don't know how you did it, Marty." I say as I step into a clean house.

"Do what?" Deeks says as he stops in his tracks halfway up the stairs to put Liam to bed.

"Nothing!" I say with a smile. "It's nothing. Just put Liam to bed, sweetie." I say as I walk into the kitchen.

I sit down on a bar stool at the end of the kitchen counter and watch the waves crash on the sand.

It's not long before I hear Deeks leave through the front door, and return shorty after.

I hear the sound of claws running across hardwood flooring, when I see two dogs charging towards me.

"Monty!! Bolt!" I say as I bend down to pet my little boys.

"Where's Socks?" I ask as I rub Monty's belly.

"He's right here." Deeks says as he sits down on the couch.

"Since have you liked cats?" I ask curiously as I stand up off the floor.

"I've never not liked cats," Deeks pauses and continues to pet Socks. "I just always thought of myself as a dog person, people change you know!" Deeks says defensively.

I laugh out loud.

"I love you." I say before the doorbell rings.

"I'll get it!" I say as walk over the the door.

"Ms Blye?" A man in a black suit asks as he takes off his sunglasses, and slids them into his inside pocket of his jacket.

"Yes, that me. Can I help you?" I ask, quite confused.

"I'm Agent Collins from the FBI, and this is my partner, Agent Williams," he says pointing to another man behind him.

"Can we come inside? We have some news regarding your captor."

^*^*^*^*^*^*^*
Tears of joy were streaming down my face.

I close the door behind the agents and jump into Deeks' arms.

"I can't believe they caught him!" I say as I cry into Deeks' chest. "It's actually over! I can continue living a normal life!"

"I'm really glad to hear he's behind bars now, Kensi. That's amazing news!!" Deeks says as he pulls me in closer.

"I love you, Kensi." Deeks says as he kisses my forehead.

"I love you to the moon and back, Marty Deeks." I say hugging him a little tighter.
