“Janvier is going after the people important to me, Hetty. I’m going to ask you something and I don’t have time to answer questions right now, so I just need you to do what I’m asking.”
“Mr. Callen, why do you think I would argue?”
“Hetty, I need you to keep Nell in ops. Don’t let her go home, or out to get lunch, just make sure she stays in the building.”
“Just Miss Jones?"
"Too many people have gotten hurt in this investigation because of me. So just tell me that you will do this and we can talk about it when Janvier is caught.”
“I will do as you ask, but Mr. Callen, Miss Jones will not take kindly to knowing that you are dictating her actions.”
“Well, when I catch Janvier she can explain in detail how angry she is, but at least she will be able to explain.”
Noon
“Hetty, hey, I was just gonna go get some lunch, would you like anything?”
“Miss Jones, I need to ask that you not leave the mission.”
“I’m sorry?” Nell said confused, “ Am I in trouble or…”
“Mr. Callen called earlier and insisted I promise him that you would not leave this building.”
“Fine, if you don’t mind I’ll go back up to my cell, I mean ops.”
“Dear, I’m sure that Mr. Callen was not trying to insult you. Is there something you would like to have someone fetch for you?”
“No, I have things I can eat here, I was just in the mood for something else.”
“You are taking this much better than I hoped, let me know if there is anything I can do.”

Part 2
Nell immediately collects her phone and calls Callen:
“G, what is your location?”
“Nell, I’m driving, I know that you are upse-”
“You think that just because we are dating you get to have Hetty order me around?”
“Nell, it’s not just that we are dating and you know it. Can we talk about this later?”
“You called Hetty, behind my back, to get her to hold me hostage here, instead of treating me like an adult and calling me and asking, so no it can’t wait until later .”
“Um, Nell?” Eric said tapping her on her shoulder.
“Eric, I’m on the phone, it’s kinda important.”
“Uh, yeah, we can all hear you, Callen’s earwig is on.”
“Sorry, Nell, I didn’t get a chance to turn it off when you called and you wouldn’t let me get a word in edgewise,” Callen said while he was disconnecting his earwig.
“Well, it doesn’t matter because there is nothing for the team to know now anyways.”
“Nell, I was just trying to protect you.” Callen said, trying to make her understand.
“This is not the way you treat an adult that you have a relationship with, or whatever it was that we had. You didn’t ask me to stay here and be safe, you called my boss and basically told her we were dating and that you don’t think that I can take care of myself. Well, you don’t need to worry about me any more. We are done. Goodbye,” Nell said, hanging up.

“I cannot believe that you lost your w-2 again. Of course if you were less of a hoarder then you could probably find it without my help,” Deeks said with a cocky smile.
“More looking, less talking, Deeks,” Kensi spat back.
“Oh my God, what is this? Did you miss the trash can? It’s grotesque.”
“Stop, don’t touch that!” Kensi yelled as she grabbed the mass of fur with one eyeball and an ear hanging on by a thread.
“Whoa, princess, didn’t mean to get you all riled up. I just didn’t want to catch anything. Can stuffed animals get the mange?”
“This is Bear.”
“I love that name, how did you come up with it?” Deeks teased.
“Shut up, my dad bought her for me at the hospital when I was born. I can’t really sew, but I have tried to patch her up over the years,” Kensi told him while hugging the decrepit bear.
“Wow, when you were born, that is one old bear!” Deeks said as he moved before she could punch him.
“Didn’t you have stuffed animals when you were little?” Kensi asked as she sat down on the couch.
“Uh, yeah, for a while, but my dad would get drunk and get mad and throw out things when I was ‘bad’, so I don’t still have any of them,” Deeks explained as he took a seat next to her.
Taking his hand Kensi said, “Sometimes, I forget that your dad was awful. You always joke around and laugh and it’s hard to think of you as anything other than happy.”
“Are you giving up on your search for the illusive w-2 because my dad sucked? He’s not worth getting audited,” Deeks joked.
“If you ever tell anyone I said this, I will kill you. But, sometimes, when you aren’t annoying the crap out of me or mocking me, you’re alright. And it makes me believe that people can turn out okay even if their parents screw up royally,” Kensi said getting up and moving things around so as not to make eye contact.
“Did, did you just compliment me?” Deeks stood and stopped her with a hand on her shoulder.
“Sort of, maybe, shut up!” Kensi said turning away.
“Hey, Kens, you mean a lot to me too,” Deeks said smiling as he turned to continue searching.

Deeks is backup for Sam and Michelle’s last meeting with Siderov. He is slowly incapacitating guards on the property when he hears the yelling start. He recognizes Sam’s voice immediately and runs toward the sound. He gets there just in time to see Siderov pull his gun. He runs while drawing his weapon and ends up right in front of Michelle as Siderov pulls the trigger. He doesn’t feel the pain at first. He, Sam and Michelle clear the area of Siderov and his men. While they are checking for pulses and kicking guns away, Deeks sees the blood on his shirt. The bullet hit his abdomen. He drops to his knees. Sam comes over to apply pressure and assess how much of a problem they have, while Michelle lets Eric know to call an ambulance.

Deeks is losing a lot of blood and he is running out of time. He’s been shot before, but this feels different. “Sam, I think I’ve used up my nine lives, can you do me a favor.”

Sam smiles, “Deeks I am not taking that mutt to raise.”

“No, I mean, that’s a good idea, but no I need you to tell Kensi something. Can you...can you just, just tell her that I wasn’t trying to get myself killed.”

“Deeks, man, you’re fine, I’ve had worse injuries on the other side of the world. You’ll be fine, the ambulance is only a few minutes away.”

“Sam, stop, I need her to know that I love her. That I have always loved her. I wanted to tell her, but I was afraid she would run. Every time I came close to talking about it, something came up and we were “fine” again. I don’t want to be fine, I want to be amazing. She makes me feel amazing and now I’m just one more person who is leaving her.”

“You’re not leaving her. You’re going to be fine. And then you are going to have to decide whether you are going to actually tell her all these things yourself.”

At that point Deeks passes out and they hear the sirens so Michelle runs out to meet the EMTs.

Deeks wakes up to beeping noises and white walls that tell him he’s in a hospital. Sam comes in and says that a nurse is on her way in. Deeks doesn’t remember much, but his whole body hurts. “Hey, man, don’t move. Just relax, okay?” Sam is being surprisingly nice, which must mean he’s bad off.
“Am I going to make it?” Deeks asks not really sure he wants to know the answer.
“Yep, told you, bullet missed everything vital, you’ll be back to driving us crazy in no time.”
“Hey, Sam, what I said before, what I told you to tell Kensi, just, just forget it man. I was being crazy.”
“Deeks, I won’t tell her, but I think that you should. You saved Michelle’s life and I owe you my life for that, but we work in a dangerous line of work and you shouldn’t miss one day you could be spending with her. You obviously have strong feelings and maybe you don’t see it, but she does too.”
Kensi rushes in, “Oh my God, Deeks! What the hell were you thinking, you almost died. What the hell is wrong with you!”
“Well, Kens, I live to make you crazy,” Deeks says smiling painfully, while Sam steps out.
“I’m with Callen tailing Janvier and Eric tells us that you are on the way to the hospital with a gunshot wound. I thought you were backup; why are you shot and Sam and Michelle fine?”
As Kensi is asking the pain medicine kicks in and Deeks starts drifting off to sleep.

The next day Nell hands Kensi a thumb drive.
“Nell, what is this?”
“Um, uh, you should listen to it. I think that you should hear it. I know we haven’t had a lot of girl time together lately, but I know that you are struggling with something and I think that this will help.”
“Nell, what are you talking about, I’m fine,” Kensi says, trying and failing to pull off carefree and unconcerned.
“Kensi, Deeks isn’t the only one to call you out when you’re lying to yourself. I know you and I know that you are not fine, but you can listen to it or not. I just wanted to give you a chance to let yourself be happy.”
Kensi, not knowing how to react, just nods, takes the flash drive and walks away.


It takes her all weekend to decide if she even wants to know what is on the drive. On Sunday night she decides she needs to listen. She plugs it into her computer and starts the audio file.
At first it’s just yelling and gunshots. Then you can hear Sam asking if Michelle is okay. He starts to ask about Deeks and then you hear Michelle telling Eric to send an ambulance that Deeks is down. Why would Nell want me to hear this, oh my God, this is awful. She thinks about stopping it, but then she hears Deeks’ voice asking Sam for a favor. Hearing him say those words, she can’t control the tears that form in her eyes.
