A Thousand Years

First Birthday

It's January 8th. The day I've always been most excited about for the Nee Year.

It's supposed to be Deeks' birthday. It's supposed to be the day where I surprise him by hiding gift around the house. It's the day I take Deeks out to dinner then come home and watch "Americas Next Top Model."

I slowly get out of bed and waddle over the the dresser. I change out of my pjs and put a fresh pair of clothes. I put my hair is a messy bun and slip on my bunny slippers before heading downstairs to prepare breakfast.

Even though Deeks isn't here, I thought I would bake my special Belgian Waffles anyways. I top them off with strawberries and whipped cream.

I plop myself on the couch and switch on the TV. I flip through all the channels, when I see Judge Judy*.

Judge Judy can make a bad day turn into a good day. If you've ever watched the show, it's kinda fun to see the kinda people who get put on the show.

There can be some people on the show that don't even being evidence to defend themselves! I'm not even a lawyer and I know you can't come to court empty handed.

As Judge Judy was interrogating the plaintiff, my phone started to ring. It was Callen.

"Kensi!" I answer as I plop a strawberry in my mouth.

"Hey Kens, it's Callen. We need you at the hospital, stat." Then the line went dead.

I get off the couch and head towards the front door. I grab my car keys and slip on a pair of Toms. I run to my car and start racing to the hospital.

I place my parking pass on the windshield and waddles into the hospital doors.

I reach the nurses station when I run into Nell.

"What's wrong!?" I ask. "Callen called me and told me to get over here. Does he not know I'm on maternity leave?" I joke.

"Yah, he knows. There's some on here he want you to talk to." Nell says as she starts to walk down the long hallway towards my assigned wing.

"The patients name is Andrea Walters, and she requested your presence during her surgery." Nell said as stopped in front of Andrea's room.

"Andrea? What's she doing back in here! I thought her heart surgery went well!" I panic. Andrea was a sweet lady I meet my first year as a nurse, she made me feel more confident about being a nurse.

Nell smiles. "She's going in for a C section, Kens."

I open the door to the room and see Andrea and her husband over by the window.

"Kensi!" Andreas voice gave me life.

"Andrea! It's so nice to see you again! How've you been?"

"I've been good. Kensi this is Steven, my husband." I shake hands with Steven and look back at Andrea.

"So...boy, girl. Girl, girl. Boy, boy?" I excitedly questions.

"Boy girl! Oh how've I always wanted a boy and a girl!" Andrea says as she claps her hands together.

"I feel terrible, I'm sorry Kensi. I had no idea you were on maternity leave yourself. I feel bad!"

"Don't sweat it sweetie. I'm not due till next month." I say with a wink.

^*^*^*^*^*

I walked through the front door at 17:00 (5pm). I was at the hospital for a total of 6 hours. Thankfully I talked to Callen, and he was going to make sure I got payed overtime for helping during a C section.

I went upstairs to the bathroom and took a warm, refreshing shower. I wanted to remove the smell of the hospital.

I wrap myself in a towel and walk into the bedroom. The bed looks so inviting and cozy.

I decide to throw on my pjs again and slid back in bed. The last thing I heard before I went asleep and Bolt and Monty barking from downstairs. I dreamt of Deeks all night.

^*^*^*^*^*^*^*
Sorry it was such a short chapter...I wanted to include Deeks' bday and add some drama to the mix.

I can't wait to start writing the next chapter. The action is going to start to happen.

Thank you so much for 1.45k reads!! I love you all so much. 😘
