A/N: I thoroughly enjoyed reading lots of other attempts at this sort of thing, so I thought I'd give it a go, one song at a time.
They are all from Jane's perspective…I know it's not balanced but I just enjoy it so much more. Not sure why.
I've just done a couple for now, but I'm planning to continue it right through the relationship.
Let me know if you like, or if you don't then why you don't - either way, REVIEW!
Disclaimer: It wouldn't be possible for me to own the Mentalist, I'd get nothing done for being lost in the cuteness of Simon Baker's curls.
"Talk" - Coldplay
"I'm so scared about the future and I wanna talk to you,
Oh I wanna talk to you,
You can take a picture of something you see,
In the future where will I be?"
The future was one thing upon which Jane's viewpoint was clouded. The only thing he had really ever "planned" was the plot of vengeance and his incessant search for Red John. Yet even the urgency of that was beginning to diminish in his daily outlook. It was no doubt an underlying aspect, one that never completely vanished from his mind.
Recently, however, smaller and more insignificant things were taking precedence in the forefront of his mind. Things such as how he was going to make Teresa Lisbon smile today.
He couldn't pinpoint the reason for this drastic alteration, every time he tried to consider an explanation; he became distracted by thoughts of how she had looked that day or the comforting warmth of her smell. Not to mention the feeling of electricity that jolted through him, on the rare instances he felt her gently place her small hand on his arm to restrain him from doing something she would consider stupid.
He needed to speak to her, to discuss this mess of feelings he couldn't analyse by himself. He knew what happened to him in her day to day presence, but what did it all mean? Deep down, he knew what it meant - but what was he to do about it? Could she ever consider such a broken and weak, albeit healing (because of her), man as part of her future?
