*complete, 2011 11, character: robert callen, dead: kensi blye

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?"

"Better," she said although she was still frowning with worry. She didn't know what was going to happen in the future and normally that wouldn't worry her. Back at home, she hadn't known what was going to happen day to day and she was sometimes more reckless than she should have been. Now though, she had somebody to worry about and somebody to be more careful for. It was an adjustment. "Sorry, I know I'm probably worrying unnecessarily."

"We both wanted to fuck. There was really no point in having the date first when there was nowhere nice to go," she said reasonably. "Nothing to do with lowering my standards and I don't want to know if you lowered yours," she added, pre-empting any taunt on his part.

"I love my cars, I didn't realize that made me a girl," She smirked. "So did you always want to fly planes? You mention your mom a lot. Was she the one who encouraged you?"

"I never said you were," he pointed out, "but while I haven't known my brother for long, there is one thing that I'm not worrying about. If anything happens to me, G will do whatever needs to be done to keep the baby safe, and if it's not him, it's Sam, or Savannah and Deeks." Oh fuck, maybe Mike was right about that one, not that Robert wanted to admit that.

"I'm not arguing with you. I'm the one who said that it was fun. You're the one arguing about it," he said, laughing.

"Totally. Girls always like the car, and fucking in the car, and having boyfriends buying them cars." He nodded. "Yes, it was always about the planes and I mention her because it was me and her." He thought for a moment. "No, not really. She encouraged me to do a lot of things, but not planes specifically. Unlike most mothers, she didn't start nagging if I drove too fast, if I was on a bike, but she didn't push toward planes."

"No, I'm not worried about him looking after the baby, Robert," she said. "I'm just not used to worrying about other people. I mean, I worried about Dom, I worried about Deeks but it was as colleagues and friends. This is more than that."

"Boyfriends buying me cars? I don't remember anybody buying me a car. I think I'd remember that. Guilty as charged for the other counts though," she said, chuckling. "Besides it's what's under the hood as much as how good it looks."

"Your dad wasn't around?" Kensi asked, not sure if she was pushing too much. "Your mom sounds like my dad. Actually, he encouraged me to drive faster and I shouldn't have even been driving back then anyway, I was too young."

"Oh that." He probably should be more worried, but then if he was dead, worrying wouldn't change the baby's fate. It seemed more productive to make sure that arrangements were made instead of worrying needlessly.

"You must have the wrong boyfriends, or maybe it's that one date rule you have. Most guys don't buy you a car the first time out, no matter how much they want to get laid," he said.

"A dad?" That had been so far from what he was thinking that he started to laugh. "What? A fake dad to go with the fake mom? No, they didn't give me one of those. Just a possible former agent posing as my mother, it was enough, but I can tell you the cover story if you like. I've heard it for years, but it was always just a story for me, so it never really mattered."

"Yes, that," She frowned, not sure if she wanted to hear the answer to her next question. "Don't you worry?"

"Yes on both counts," she said. "And do you think I don't know that? I'd be worried if somebody did want to buy me a car."

"I don't know, you never mentioned it so I wasn't sure," Kensi looked at him, searching his face for something though she wasn't sure what she was looking for exactly. "Do you want to tell me? I'd like to know more about you, both the cover story and the real one underneath. I just don't want to make you uncomfortable."

She paused, not sure whether to return the favor. "I can tell you about my background too if you want. You'd need to know something more than the surface about me before the baby arrives anyway. Dom pointed out on Saturday that I'm hardly open about myself."

"Not about things that are already taken care of," he said. "I know that G will take care of the baby. Worrying about all the things that could happen to me isn't something that I'm thinking about, because you can be killed in many way, but the end result is still the same."

He smirked. "You never know. You might meet a politician. They do strange things."

Robert shrugged. "Not much to tell, mostly because we have no clue what the story is. If I hadn't ended up here and met G, I wouldn't have known that it was a cover story at all. As for the fake one, he died when my mother was pregnant, left us a lot of money, my mother didn't like to talk about him, which is understandable since it wasn't real. It's a lot less mysterious than you are imagining."

He sighed. "Look, this isn't twenty questions. If you want to tell me something, then tell me. If you think if I should know something, then tell me. I'm not going to push and as far as I can tell, it's irrelevant, because we can't tell the baby any of this, because a baby can't be confused with so many stories. We'll tell him whatever cover story there is in place then and we go from there."

"I'm just interested. It might be a fake story but you grew up with it," she replied. "So sure, it's fake, but it was real to you. It's still your background."

Kensi had been prepared to tell Robert some of her background but he gave her the perfect get out clause and it was too good to pass up. She should have known better as she knew he really didn't care.

"Nope," She smiled. "Nothing to say," She got up from the table and reached for her plate. "I guess I better wash up and sleep. We can work on the cover story another day. I suppose there will be different variations to consider anyway depending on where we end up."

"As I said, it was someone who was a memory, just a picture, I got very little about him, which was fine, because it wasn't like I knew him," he said.

He hadn't expected to get out of this so easily, but he would take the win. "That's fine. We still have months. Good night." Maybe things weren't so bad. He had to deflect for a few more years and then everything would be fine.
