Author's Note: Someone requested that I make each chapter longer so here is my attempt. I don't want to post more than one chapter at a time because there is a purpose to where the chapters are split up, so it's going to be longer time between updates while I attempt to make each chapter longer. The chapters won't be super long but there will be a little more added to each chapter. I am interested in what everyone else thinks. Did you like how the chapters were before or would you like more with each chapter?
"Well Monty what shall we do today?" Deeks asks his dog who just looks at him and then stuffs his head under the blankets, basically telling Deeks that he wants to sleep. Taking the hint that Monty wants to sleep Deeks gets up and decides to head to the doughnut shop where he ran into Kensi before hoping that he will run into her again. And with a plan for at least the morning on mind Deeks heads into the bathroom to take a shower.
After getting out of the shower Deeks hears the ring tone "Ding Dong! The Witch is dead. Which old Witch? The Wicked Witch! Ding Dong! The Wicked Witch is dead" that he programed his phone to play so that he knows when his boss is calling. Throwing on his pair of pants Deeks runs through the bedroom and through the living room to get to the island in the kitchen where he left his phone last night.
Out of breath Deeks answers "Hello."
"Report Detective, what have you learned so far?" Lt. Bates demands over the phone the minute Deeks says hello.
"Not much…I know she has an addiction to sweets especially doughnuts and Twinkies. She uses tide on her laundry. But that is probably not what you are looking for." Deeks replies with attitude in his voice, fed up with his boss checking in on him for what feels like the millionth time.
Deeks leaves the kitchen and walks through the living room and over to the only window in his living room and stares at the people passing by on the street as he listens to Bates. Spotting the person this conversation revolves around Deeks follows her with his eyes. As if she feels him staring at her she looks up and gives Deeks a smile, at least Deeks thinks she is smiling at him so he smiles back and includes a wave. Knowing that there is no way now that he will catch her at the doughnut shop this morning Deeks turns away from his window and walks through the living room and into the kitchen to start preparing breakfast while listening to Bates.
"Watch your tone Detective. And while what you have learned is all very well and everything, but let's not forget the reason you are there. Have you found any evidence of a crime?"
"No, she leaves her apartment at 7 in the morning and arrives back at various times in the evening. Sometimes she doesn't even come back till the next morning. So she might already have a boyfriend Bates and if she does we might need to rethink this whole operation." Deeks replies as he grabs a bowl from the cupboard and a spoon from the draw.
"You will just have to make sure she doesn't and if she does then figure something else out. Do you know what she has been up too?" Bates orders and interrogates Deeks at the same time.
"No sir, as far as I can tell she's just going about her day. Going to work and what not, I'm starting to doubt the legitimacy of our tipster. Have we located a body yet?" Deeks inquires as he grabs the milk from the fridge and the cereal from the pantry, which is really just an oversized cupboard.
"Not yet, keep your eyes open Detective. You have two more weeks to find any evidence of a crime, and then I'm pulling you out. You might want to step it up." On that note Bates hangs up the phone.
Glaring at his phone after Bates hangs up Deeks tosses it on the island and picks up the cereal pouring some into his bowl. Picking up the milk next, Deeks pours it onto his cereal and then proceeds to eat his breakfast while figuring out how to get closer to Kensi to find out if she could be a suspect. Right now they are just classifying her as a person of interest, but depending on what Deeks finds out they could be classifying her as the number one suspect.
After finishing his bowl of cereal Deeks goes over to the sink washes his dishes out and then puts the milk and cereal away. After cleaning up Deeks heads back into the bedroom to wake Monty, deciding when he was eating to spend the morning at the park down the street and then trying to catch Kensi later on and so that he could ask her out on a date.
