Connection

"Where are you?" Nell mumbled. She looked at the big screen in OPS. "You got anything on Deeks?" Eric asked as he entered the dimly lit room. "No it's like he just disappeared from the surface of earth." Their eyes met and Eric saw some kind of emotion in them, that he couldn't quite identify.
"Don't worry we'll find him, we're the wonder twins, remember?" he said as he put a hand on her shoulder, feeling the woolen fabric of her dark purple cardigan. Nell shivered at his light touch. She didn't want him to let go. She wanted this moment to last forever. She sighed and spun around on her chair.
"But what about Kensi? She 8 months pregnant and Deeks is not there with her. How is she going survive that?" Nell wondered worried about her friend. The redheads eyes were filled with worry.
"Because we're there for her, helping her through this." He comforted her as slowly sat down on his chair, besides her.
"I think I'll call her tomorrow," Nell announced. She wanted to help her best friend have this baby. "Sounds good," Eric smiled, happy that he could help her.

After eating dessert with her mom Kensi decided to go to sleep. She sat on her bed and felt the soft fabric between her fingers. Her mom had kept her room. It looked just the same as 15 years ago. She thought about all the boys she brought into this very room. All the times her mom thought she was asleep and she sneaked out of the window and climbed down the willow tree. Maybe it was better if she had stayed with one those boys.

The window flew open and cold air filled Kensi's room. She shivered. The cold air slowly filled the room. She got up, and started to walk towards the window. The wooden floor creaked beneath her bare feet. When she reached the windowsill, she noticed a little bird. It was a hummingbird. It's blue and green feathers glowed in the soft light of the moon. She noticed red blood on it's s right wing. It was hurt. When she looked closer she saw a little wound.
"Hey little one," she whispered quietly as she carefully reached out her index finger to touch the little creature. But as soon as her finger made contact with the soft feathers of the bird, it's coat of feathers lost it color. It's blue glow was immediately replaced with a much brighter silver light. She looked at the birds right wing and saw how the wound slowly healed. Kensi was completely out of breath. Astonished she quickly pulled back her finger. She wiped her mismatched eyes. The young woman was sure she was completely out of her mind. She let out a impressed breath. The little bird chirped and flew off into the night. Lying down on her bed she wondered what just happened.

After hours of thinking and wondering she decided to get some sleep, but worried thoughts kept filling her head. But at last sleep embraced her.

Kensi's P.O.V.
I felt the warmth of the sun on my face. The sound of birds chirping rang though my head. I placed my hand beneath me to fell my soft bedlinen, but all I could feel was dirt and long grass. Completely shocked I immediately lifted my eyelids and looked around. Bright colored flowers caught my eye. Daisies peaked up here and there between the long grass. Further out almost by the horizon I could see a building. When I looked closely I saw it was a gas station. Where was I? As I slowly started becoming aware of my surroundings I stood which wasn't an easy task considering that I was 8 and a half months pregnant.
I took a couple of insecure steps. My feet were dirty from from the dry dirt.
Slowly i made my way towards the gas station to figure out what the heck was going on.
