RP: Kensi, Robert
Who: Kensi, Robert
Where: Their apartment
When: November 1st, 2011
Summary: Kensi tries to talk.

Kensi was exhausted. She really hadn't expected to get tired so quickly but since finding out about the baby, she had noticed a lot of things that she'd dismissed previously. Napping was one of them; Kensi often felt like she could lie down and sleep just about anywhere. She had been lucky enough to not get morning sickness but her sense of smell seemed to have improved and certain smells made her feel nauseous, more than they had before she was pregnant.

She'd received the training schedule from Sam and although she was pissed she couldn't do things such as running - she really would have to cut out some of the fast food if she wasn't running about in the cold anymore - she was glad that they had a plan actually designed for them. It wasn't as if they would be able to keep up with the group for much longer, especially since Jenna was further along than both her and Savannah. The yoga and stretching wasn't too bad although she imagined it was going to get harder as their bodies started to change more. But after thirty minutes of shooting followed by an hour of yoga that night, Kensi was about ready to fall asleep. However, she still had to have some dinner although she didn't feel like cooking. She had begun to learn using recipes she had found on the web and she could now cook a decent breakfast. Or pasta with a sauce. Which had to be a start, right?

Kensi had just made herself a salad for dinner when Robert walked through the door. Things had been okay between them but Dom's words were still on her mind. They didn't talk about anything important and if they were going to bring up a child together, they really had to discuss something beyond the niceties. Kensi just didn't know if she was ready to answer the questions Robert might ask her in return.

"Hey, I picked up some beer for you at the store earlier," she said, smiling as she sat down to eat. "How are you?"

Kensi looked down at her plate. "I'd rather not eat a proper meal before I have to do an hour of yoga," she replied, forking up a mouthful of salad. "Which I now have one and a half hours of on a Tuesday. Did I show you my modified schedule that I was sent? There's so much I'm not allowed to do."

She gave him a skeptical look. "Two hours with Sam? Sounds... Hard. Talking of Sam, did you see that we're going there for dinner on Saturday before the club? I might have to see if Hetty has anything I can borrow to wear," She smiled suddenly. "Hey, are you singing or playing? Sam banned me for life already."

"It's yoga, how hard can it be?" He didn't think that it could be that taxing, not that he'd ever trained. "Training or no training, I'm eating." There was no way that he could go all day without eating.

"No, you didn't show me the list, but I'm assuming that they did their homework. They don't do anything without researching and I saw April around. If it's necessary for the baby, right?"

He snorted. "He likes his training a lot more than G does, but I'll survive. It could be worse. I've seen SEALs train on their downtime. It's tiring just watching them." He looked at her for a moment. "Have you considered buying a dress? It doesn't have to be something expensive." He rolled his eyes. "I'm doing none of those things. I'm dancing if the music allows it. Other than that, I'm just there to support yet another family affair."

"Less hard, more boring," Kensi replied. "I always preferred pilates if I did anything like that. Yoga was definitely more Marty's thing."

Kensi found the email on her laptop as she ate and swiveled the machine so Robert could read it. "I know they've done their homework and it's kind of a relief in some ways knowing I'm not about to inadvertently hurt the baby. It's just strange seeing things that I'd never think twice about doing banned like that."

"I have considered buying a dress, I just thought I'd try Hetty first. I know she doesn't have the wardrobe we had back home but she's knowledgeable about where to get things," She shrugged and stared at him. "You know, you could have fun, Rob. You don't have to just support whatever they're doing."

"Then why aren't you eating before yoga?" he asked with a chuckle. "And I can't say I've met many people who did yoga, men or women, but maybe it's a military thing."

Robert read the email, making not of what she wasn't supposed to do. "Do you get a feeling that Savannah had a hand in that? It doesn't really sound like Sam. Of course, it's missing the pink links." He reached over and cupped the back of her head. "You'll be fine. I'm sure you won't hurt anyone for banning these activities."

He nodded, although he didn't get this fixation they had with asking Hetty for things. "Okay, whatever you want. I'll have to get a suit, something dark that I can wear more than once, get different shirts and ties to make it look different." He smiled. "I'll have fun. I'll be there and dancing, but I'm not singing or playing."

"Because I don't want to and it's kinda popular back home but mostly for the ultra-healthy skinny people who hate the sight of food," she dead-panned. "Marty only really went to pick up girls but we won't mention that part to Savannah. Or yoga at all."

"I have a feeling she had a very big hand in this. We already spoke with Eliot about training - Jenna wanted Sam to sign off on it first. He didn't really go about it the right way. No woman wants to get told she's going to look like a whale," She chuckled. "It's not that surprising though, she was going to open up her own gym or something back home. Fitness and cheerleading, they are her things."

"As long as they don't ban me from shooting all together. If they do, I might shoot them," she said, grinning.

"Do you want some company shopping?" she asked, pushing her plate aside once she'd finished eating. "And do you sing? Or play?" she asked, curious to know. "I can do about three chords on a guitar and that's it. I wonder if your brother knows Sam banned him from singing too. Our unique vocal talents just aren't appreciated in the slightest."

"Eating this late is going to make you sick," he pointed out, "but whatever you want." And yes, he had been reading those links, and now he could wait until she got heartburn and then say 'I told you so' without even saying it. "I'm fine with not mentioning yoga."

Robert snorted. "The man has no tact. It's a surprise that someone hasn't shot him yet." He didn't really pay attention to Savannah and her plans for the future. "I just meant that I can't see Sam explaining so much. He would have said 'this is what you do' and be done." He smiled. "You might want to stop when it's too much stress on your body but that's not for a while."

He shrugged. "Sure, if you want to. Picking a blue suit isn't that exciting." He chuckled. "Doesn't everyone sing? If I'm drunk enough I suppose that I might even do it in public, or a squadron room after a mission, but no, I don't sing. I play the guitar and the piano. The first because it was cool, the second because my mother thought it'd be a good way to broaden my horizons. I don't know about that, but I was always a lousy guitarist, so many she was right."

"And if it does, you can laugh at me all you want," she replied, smiling. She found she got heartburn more than she ever had anyway. Nobody had mentioned that part of pregnancy beforehand.

"He's going to have to be a lot more careful about what he says if he's going to train three pregnant women with superpowers. It's not like we're at our most rational or non-hormonal," She rolled her eyes. "No but then he also knows that Savannah probably knows what not to do. Jenna and I need to be told, especially Jenna seeing as she's further along."

"Well if I have to go buy a dress, I want to look good. You can help out there, right? As long as you don't call me a whale, I won't throw anything at you," Kensi studied Robert's hands. People always talked about pianists having some kind of special hands and fingers though she didn't see what was different about Robert's. "There I was hoping you were the tubby kid with the French horn," she teased. "So how long did you play for? Did you have to do recitals and stuff?"

"Or you can learn to eat early so you don't feel sick," he answered, chuckling.

"I'm sure he'll learn pretty soon. Just hit him where the sun doesn't shine and he'll figure it out that you don't even need superpowers to kick his ass." He wasn't even sure that they needed hormones as an excuse, not these three. "And again, I don't think he cares about people knowing the reasons why they can or can't do something. He never bothered before whether people knew things or not."

Robert nodded. "Of course I can. Shopping is my superpower." The budget was what was missing. "You're not a whale... yet, but anyone looks like a whale if she picks the wrong style. We'll find something that looks great on you." He chuckled. "I was way too cool for that." He looked at her in horror. "Recitals? Fuck no. I had a private tutor since I was about six and you don't have recitals, you show your skill at your mother's parties at least when you're young and cute, then your voice breaks and you have a band in secret in the guest house, even though it's not a secret, while you keep studying Bach, and then you reach the end of high school and stop playing all the classical music and just play around for kicks."

"Now why hit him there when I can throw knives. After all, that's what we're supposed to be doing so it's not like I'd be doing anything wrong. Just hitting a moving target," Kensi still didn't see what he was going to teach her considering she was awesome with knives. "This was before he was going to be a grandfather and Jenna's stubborn in case you didn't notice."

"Yet?" Kensi raised her eyebrows. "Man, don't make me castrate you this early into the pregnancy. You haven't been too annoying yet," she added with a mischievous smile.

"I just wondered," Kensi thought that it was kind of cute, the idea of a smaller Robert playing the piano at parties. "Let's hope this kid inherits your musicality then. I never did any of that stuff. I was much happier in a garage than in a music room."
