==Overview==
===Season 1===
Kensi and Deeks first met when they were both undercover at an MMA gym for marines for different assignments for NCIS and LAPD respectively. Kensi and the team were investigating a murder while Deeks was undercover to investigate the gym as it secretly sold drugs. Deeks was undercover as Jason Wyver, a regular gym member and Kensi as Tracy, the girlfriend to the murder victim, Danny Zuna. During their encounters, Kensi became instantly suspicious of him and couldn’t shake the feeling something was off about him while everyone on the team began teasing her, sensing she might harbour feelings for him. Deeks was also suspicious of Kensi and was able to deduce Tracy wasn’t her real identity when they once again encountered each other at the deceased, Danny Zuna’s home. 
The two cases between NCIS and LAPD quickly overlapped and later once Deeks’s true identity as an undercover detective was revealed, he and the team began working together. Shortly after Deeks’s introduction and the case being resolved, Hetty selected him to become the liaison between NCIS and LAPD to better coronate joint-operations and investigations, but secretly she was recruiting Deeks to become an NCIS Special Agent, having secretly been observing him for sometime. Deeks became Kensi’ partner when he first joined the team, but their time together is short lived when Deeks is called away on a deep undercover assignment for LAPD. Kensi shows she is rather disappointed, but Deeks assures he will be back. 
===Seasons 2-3===
In the beginning of Season 2, Kensi and Deeks officially became partners after Deeks returned from a deep undercover operation for LAPD as well as the death of Kensi’s former partner, Dominic Vail. Since then, Kensi and Deeks have been partners and friends. Deeks and Kensi are known to banter with one another and Kensi frequently enjoys teasing or poking fun at Deeks. Despite some difficultly in the beginning, Deeks and Kensi developed a strong partnership and friendship, always there for each other and continue to grow more closer. Deeks and Kensi’s parternship grew to the point where Kensi trusts Deeks with everything, including when she went to hunt down the man responsible for her father’s death. 
Over time, Kensi and Deeks soon began to develop mutual romantic feelings for each other. Deeks and Kensi’s feelings were first confronted when they both went undercover as a married couple in Season 3 and also shared their first unofficial kiss. However, they both quickly deny their feelings for each other whenever they are confronted. Despite their denial, everyone on the team quickly start to become aware of their growing attraction and even people outside of the team realize there is obviously something more between them. Hetty and Granger in particular discuss their relationship the most with Hetty greatly supporting their growing romance while Granger is somewhat disapproving, questioning can they continue being partners with their growing feelings.
===Season 4===
In Season 4, Kensi and Deeks find their feelings growing stronger, especially towards the end of the season when Kensi learns Deeks was on a secret undercover mission where he became romantically involved with his informant, Monica Davis. Kensi becomes extremely jealous and despite Deeks and Kensi's assurance everything is fine between them, their relationship becomes somewhat tense and strained. Eventually in the season finale, Deeks and Kensi's relationship comes to a head when they have a heated discussion about the lack of communication between them in regards to their feelings for each other. Later, when Kensi and Deeks watch over Sam's wife, Michelle and witness her kiss Isaak Sidorov, it causes Kensi and Deeks to discuss his relationship with Monica, leading them to again discuss their poor communication. Kensi begins to express her frustration of the subject, but finally working up the courage, Deeks kisses Kensi, proving his feelings for her once and for all. Kensi and Deeks are left shocked and stunned by the kiss, but Kensi is unable to give a response and leaves to continue watching over Michelle. Deeks is left happy, finally making a step forward in his and Kensi's relationship. However, the season ends in a shocking cliffhanger with Deeks and Sam captured and brutally tortured by Isaak Sidorov and his men. 
===Season 5===
Kensi and Deeks's romance becomes a major plot as they finally begin to truly confront their romantic feelings for each other, but face many obstacles along the way, preventing them from discussing their feelings. The season begins shortly after the events of the Season 4 finale with Kensi and Granger locating Deeks and Sam, finding they've been brutally and severely tortured by Isaak Sidorov for information. Deeks pleas for Kensi to help him, but Kensi and Granger are forced to leave them for the time being to ensure Michelle's cover as Quinn is still intact. Eventually, Kensi and Granger return with paramedics and escort Deeks and Sam to the hospital, but witness how greatly traumatised and scarred Deeks is from the tortured he and Sam endured. Kensi is left feeling great guilt for what happened to Deeks, upset with herself for not having his back in his most desperate time of need and feels she let him down. By the end of the investigation, Isaak Sidorov is killed and the nuclear bombs are recovered, but Deeks decides to take a leave of absence from NCIS to recover from his traumatic experience. Before his departure, Deeks reveals to Kensi he thought of her to help him survive the pain and torture, leaving her stunned and emotional.
Following his departure from NCIS, Deeks has not been in contact with Kensi or anyone from the team, still unable to deal with his trauma and is unable to sleep, leaving him unsure if he will return to NCIS. Kensi misses Deeks greatly and has attempted to contact him various times with no response. By orders of Hetty, Nate returns to help and speaks with Deeks about his trauma, but also his partnership with Kensi and questions both the true nature and how he defines it. Eventually, Deeks and Kensi reunite for the first time since his departure when Kensi arrives at his apartment and they spend time together. With Kensi by his side, Deeks finally manages to fall asleep, but not before whispering, "It’s a love story." answering Nate’s earlier question in regards to his and Kensi's relationship. Eventually, Deeks finally returns to NCIS and gradually begins to recover as he and Kensi resume their partnership, but still have yet to discuss their feelings since his return. 
Deeks and Kensi's partnership is slowly restored as Deeks manages to accept what happened to him with Kensi keeping watch over him, watchful of any potential signs of PTSD and to ensure he has truly recovered from his ordeal. Finally halfway through the season, Deeks and Kensi once again confront their feelings and relationship when Deeks takes Kensi on a date without her knowledge, taking her to a fancy restaurant and finally admits he wants to be with her. Kensi and Deeks at long last finally give into their feelings and spend the night together, which is quickly realized by everyone the next day. However, during a mission to retrieve important intel and Kensi is taken hostage, Deeks doesn't take the shot, leading a criminal to escape and losing the data in the process. Deeks and Kensi's greatest fear comes true when their relationship begins to cause problems for the team. Deeks and Kensi attempt to discuss their feelings with Deeks expressing he simply wants to make it work. However, Kensi is unconvinced, believing their feelings will cloud their judgement in the field and sees they are standing on a "Frozen Lake", a metaphor explaining how despite their wish to be together it simply won't work no matter how hard they try.
However, when Deeks goes undercover to once again retrieve the data, Kensi makes a similar mistake by going to rescue him before securing the intel. In the aftermath, Kensi realizes her mistake and admits to Deeks she wants to make it work and is finally willing to make more of an effort to discuss their feelings and give their romance a real shot. Unfortunately, before they can truly discuss or begin their relationship, Kensi and Deeks become separated when Kensi is reassigned on a highly classified mission to Afghanistan indefinitely. Deeks and Kensi's separation becomes their biggest challenge as they greatly miss each other and longingly wish to be reunited. Kensi and Deeks struggle with being apart since they have been given no information on why Kensi was chosen for the mission and believe it to be a punishment because of their feelings. In order to help soothe their worries and offer them comfort, Hetty gifts them both a sat phone, allowing them to communicate. Due to this, Kensi and Deeks begin an unofficial long distance relationship. Eventually, the team are called to Afghanistan to rescue Kensi when she goes missing and the truth about assignment is finally revealed. Deeks becomes greatly worried for Kensi to the point he tortured a blind man for information after receiving a photo that Kensi maybe dead.
Eventually, Kensi is found and rescued, at last reuniting her and Deeks after months apart. However, despite Kensi’s return, they are forced to once again put their romance on hold as Kensi emotionally recovers from the trauma she went through in captivity. By the end of the season, after Kensi finally recovers and resumes her place with the team, Kensi and Deeks are ready to once again confront their feelings and finally begin an actual romance until they encounter and interrogate rogue NCIS Special Agent, Paul Angelo. Becoming aware of their romance, Angelo begins to manipulate them into believing their relationship will not work through his theory of the "Three Hearts". Although Kensi does not let his words affect her, Deeks becomes uncertain and starts to reconsider their relationship. In the aftermath, Deeks decides that despite their mutual feelings and everything they've been through throughout the season, he still isn't ready for them to be romantically together and returns Kensi's knife as a symbol of his decision.
