Hi Everyone!

This is my first fic I've ever posted. I love Deeks and Kensi. And I love the idea of Deeks being a Dad - I'm not sure why, maybe its the whole "hot guys are hotter when they have kids". Am I the only one who thinks that?

Anyway please r&r! If you want more just ask. If you don't want any more and you completely hate it let me know!

Cheers

Lexi

Chapter 1

Deeks had a secret. A big secret. A big secret with long wavy blonde hair, bright green eyes and a fiery temper. Deeks secret was his fifteen year old daughter Lily.

"Dad! Where the hell are my jeans? Did you wash them? How did you wash them? You didn't put them in the dryer did you? I'm having a fat day!" Lily wailed from her bedroom. They were running late. She had school in less than half an hour and he was supposed to be at work already.

Deeks rolled his eyes, his daughter was always loved the melodrama "Honey, I don't know, I don't care. Just put on anything, you'll look stunning! Come on! We're both running late!" He told her as he grabbed his stuff and started packing her school bag with all the books she had dumped in the middle of the living room.

15 minutes, and 3 near full emotional breakdowns over which was the perfec top to wear later, Lily emerged in a pair of black skinny jeans and a low cut top, much too low if Deeks was perfectly honest but they didn't have time to have this argument. This argument could wait for another day.

After dropping Lily at school Deeks headed into work while trying to figure out a convincing lie to tell the team as to why he was late. Deeks had tried desperately to keep Lily separate to his work but that was now proving difficult since she had moved in with him. She had been living with her mother, his ex Holly, in New York. They had moved there just before he joined NCIS. He and Holly, hadn't been together very long before they found out she was pregnant with Lily. They were both young and had always had a love/hate relationship but both loved Lily so much they found a way to raise their daughter together. The move to New York was sudden. Holly received a promotion she couldn't refuse and Deeks' job was getting more and more dangerous so they decided it was best for Holly to take Lily with her to NYC. While Deeks missed Lily more than he could bare sometimes, in a strange way it helped him sleep at night. She was so far away and removed from his dangerous job, and her safety was all that mattered to him. It wasn't all bad, he and Lily would spend school holidays together going on away on father daughter trips. She was his whole world and he was hers. Lily from day one had been the biggest Daddy's girl. So much so Holly sometimes was jealous of their bond.

Now Lily was living with him. He had to move into a bigger place to accommodate his princess. She took up a lot more space these days with mountains of clothes, shoes, make up and jewellery. She had moved back to LA as she had managed to secure a spot at one of the most sought after performing arts school in the country. Lily was a musician. She loved music and she was very talented. You put an instrument in her hands and she could play it. Her favourite instrument was the guitar.

Deeks walked in to the bullpen and it had started before he even got a chance to sit down.

"Deeks, you're late. Again." Sam sighed as he walked past.

"Had a late one Deeks? Slept through your alarm again?" Callen added.

"Was she good?" Kensi piped up.

Deeks just grinned. He had nothing, not even a decent lie. So he went with a grin, let them think what they want. He didn't know why he preferred them to think of him as a man whore instead of an infuriated father of a teenage girl, but he didn't want to have to explain Lily. Not just yet anyway.

Before much more interrogation the team heard Eric whistle and summon them upstairs. One by one they filed upstairs. Kensi followed Deeks whispering "Was it hot? Was she good? What was her name? Tell me everything!" but he wasn't in the mood for playing today. Something just didn't feel right.

As they walked into the briefing room Deeks was surrounded by images of Lily's school. What the hell was going on? Hetty walked in and stared at him. She knew about Lily, hell Hetty knew everything about everyone.

"LA County School of the Arts has been taken hostage. LAPD and the FBI are on the scene….." That's all Deeks needed to hear before he tried to get out of the room, but the doors were locked.

"Open the doors! Open the doors right now!" He screamed. All he knew was he had to get down there. He had to get his Lily and then he would be able to breathe again. He wasn't thinking clearly, he knew that but he didn't know what else to do.

"Mr Deeks you need to calm down." Hetty said calmly. Deeks turned back to look at her, how could she even possibly think he was going to calm down, she was crazier than he was! He looked to his team all of them wearing the same look of shock and confusion. We saw things like this every day and no one had lost it quite as badly as he was right now.

"Calm down? You need to let me go that's what needs to happen right now"

"Deeks, what's going on?" Kensi said softly walking hesitantly towards me.

"FUCK IT, just tell them Hetty I guess that's why you brought us all up here instead of just telling me!" Deeks spat. He was pissed.

"Mr Deeks calm down right now!" She snapped but Deeks just rolled his eyes. " Mr Beal if you will" on Hetty's cue Eric pulled up picture of Lily, including her student ID card with her name clearly displayed Lilianna Jade Deeks. The team fell silent. Eric cleared his throat before speaking "Ahhh this is Lilianna Deeks, she is a student at the school and one of the 12 hostages taken this morning. She is also Deeks daughter."
