We were all at our desks doing paperwork, it's been a few days since everything happened. I was in the middle of typing something when my laptop is closed. I look up and see Granger.
"Need something Granger?" I asked
"Give me your gun." He says more like demands
"What for?" I asked confused as to why he would need my gun
"Gun. Now." He says and I scoff. I take my gun and its holster giving it to him.
"You wanna explain what this is about?" Callen asks
"Alexa, you have been through more than the average agent generally goes through. Now Leon wants me to make sure your head is on straight. From being kidnapped, to being in a car accident, and to being kidnapped with a bomb strapped to you. All these things back to back. He wants to be 100% certain that you're not gonna snap in the field. So you will not be having your gun until I get a report from Nate." Granger explains as Nate walks up
"You're kidding me,right. I don't need therapy or a shrink, no offense Nate." I said
"None taken, nobody likes shrinks." He says
"You have fun with her." Granger says walking away
I angrily sigh while seating back down in my chair and the team comes around my desk.
"How am I gonna help in the field without my gun?" I ask
"You're a great fighter, you'll be okay." Kensi says
"Well she did get trained by the best." Sam jokes and I laugh
We hear a whistle and automatically knew what it was.
"We caught a case." Eric says
I was about to go upstairs when Nate calls my name.
"We need to get started." He says
"I know but I have a case." I said
"Go, we got this." Callen says and I reluctantly nod
I followed Nate into his office and sat on the couch, he took the chair in front of me.
"Okay so I have gotten a small run down of what has all happened to you within the last 2 months. Would you mind explaining the events that have occurred so I know the full extent of it all?" He asks me
"Well it all started when I was kidnapped the first time. They kept me locked up and would beat me. That when on for a month until I escaped. Then these people came in pretending to be SWAT and FBI took me hostage, while we were in the car I managed to take them down but in the result of that the driver was shot and I almost went into an 18-wheeler. So I swerved the car and it rolled a couple times before exploding. Then finally when I was taken hostage again the guy put a bomb vest on me, told everyone they had one hour to get 5 million dollars or he'd kill me." I explained, remembering all of the events that have happened.
"With all of that how would you say your mental state is?" Nate asks
I hesitate on answering cause I've actually never thought about it. I mean I'm fine.
"Good, I'm in a good place. I'm happy where I am. Callen and I are fantastic. Yes, all of those things are traumatic and I won't forget them but I can't let criminals control my life and scare me. If I did that, I wouldn't be as good of an agent as I am. I have processed the events that have happened, now will I ever truly get over the trauma part of it, probably not but I can go through it. And I have, I'm fine Nate. I'm not gonna suddenly break down and shoot everyone." I said
"I know, it's routine when someone goes through extreme trauma that they be evaluated. Although Granger came off like a hard ass, he means well. We all want to make sure you are okay." Nate says
"I appreciate that." I said, "Are we done?"
He chuckles, "Not quite, I got a bit more questions and then you'll be free."
5 hours. 5. Whole. Hours. I spent 5 hours answering questions, I'm gonna kill Granger if I don't get my gun back. The team had solved their case, they were at their desks doing paperwork. I go and plop down into my chair.
"Rough day, little one?" Deeks asks enjoying the torment I've endured
"You do realize I am one of the few people that could kill you and leave no forensic evidence, right?" I say
"That bad, huh?" Kensi asks
"Oh yeah. I've never had to answer so many questions in one sitting. If Granger doesn't give me my gun back, we're gonna have a problem." I said
"Well good thing Nate says you are capable of doing your job." Granger says walking up
He hands me back my gun and I gladly take it, "Thanks." He nodded and walked off.
"He's weird around you." Sam says
"Almost like you intimidate him." Deeks says
"Me? Intimidate Granger? That's ridiculous." I chuckled
"Well he is intimidated by Hetty." Kensi says
"That's different, it's Hetty." I say, "Now I don't know about y'all but I'm ready to go home."
We all said our goodbyes for the night and headed home. Me and Callen showered and got straight into bed. He pulled me to his chest and we just laid there together.
"Baby?" He asks
"Hmm?" I responded sleepy
"You are okay, right?" He asks
"Yup. I'm fine, I promise." I answered

Callen and I were sitting at a table, it was our day off so we decided to stop by a local cafe. We had just paid the check. The whole time I've caught Callen staring at me, which isn't unusual, but there's something different this time.
"Okay, what's up?" I asked taking a sip of my water
"What do you mean?" He asks
"The whole time you've stared at me different, not in a bad way though. I can't figure it out." I said
"Now I bet that bugs the hell out of you, the face that you can't figure me out." He laughs
"I have no idea what you're talking about." I said trying to fight back a smile, "Now let's go back home so we can enjoy our day off with some wine."
I grab my jacket, slipping it on as Callen turns to put the tip of the table.
"Alexa Deeks?" A man asks coming up to me, he looks scared
"Yes?" I said
"I'm sorry. I have to do it." The man says and then takes out a gun and shoots me in my abdomen
At that moment, everything felt like it slowed down. The man and people scattered and Callen turns around and registers what happened. I fall to my knees, my hands covering the bullet wound.
"Callen." I breathed out and he catches me before I hit the pavement completely
It's weird, I've been shot before and the wound never felt cold like this.
"Alexa, you stay with me, you here? Ambulance is on the way." Callen says putting pressure on my wound
"I love you." I said struggling to speak
"No. Don't do that, don't you say goodbye." Callen says tears welling up in his eyes.
My eyes started to droop and the last thing I saw were Callen's sad blue eyes.
