The senior FBI agent,Teresa Lisbon,has just got home,feeling tired of everyone and everything. These past few days(weeks actually) were far more exhausting than she could ever imagine. Having to deal with Patrick Jane has never been an easy task but during these days she couldn't even face the man properly. She felt bad. Why was that? Altough no one has ever admit it,it felt weird since they started working together again, She felt that the more cases they were solving,the more they were drifting apart. And then Marcus appeared and gloriously took his spot next to her as her boyfriend and Jane seemed even more distant...
As soon as she dropped her keys on the kitchen table and got rid of her shoes, she made her way to the living room and sat comfortably on the couch.
She has just told Jane that she intended to move to DC with Marcus and his reaction was a little sigh. He said absolutely nothing. And when she asked him again if he was ok with her decision he just looked at her and said "as long as you're happy i am too'. At first she was kind of relieved that he reacted as a normal human being but while she was driving home, his expression kept coming to her mind.. His eyes.. Those beautiful eyes filled up with sorrow..
She felt divided,not being able to make up her mind. How could she still feel that way? Jane had left her alone so many times while Pike was all she ever needed. But still..There was always something mysterious about Jane, something dark, something exciting that she couldn't say no to...
Her lips formed into a slight smile but it quickly disappeared as she heard noise coming from behind her front door. She istinctively stood up and reached for her gun but as soon as she opened the door whoever was behind it had already disappeared. She had a feeling she may knew who it was but no. It couldn't be him.. No way.
She immediately looked down and her heart sunk into her chest.
There it was. A letter. With the same old signature: U-NO-HOO.
Lisbon quickly picked it up with trembling hands and opened it
Dear Lisbon,
''All these years i thought we were friends..You were actually my best friend. The one person that helped me get up and face life again. You were here when i needed you the most. You stood by me. I know i've done many mistakes but believe me each time i was leaving, my heart torn and i couldn't figure out why. I am supposed to be the Mentalist. The ultimate mind reader. The one who gets to control people's behavior. And i get to do all these things most of the times. Expept for when you're around. That's when all my defences are bend because you're in the same room with me. And trust me, i haven't realized what is going on. Not until a simple ''i love you'' escaped my lips when i was supposed to shoot you 4 years ago. And i meant it, Believe me Teresa, I MEANT IT. I wanted to scream so the whole world could hear me but no. How could I? Red John was still out there. And he knew what my only weakness is you. My one and only soft spot. So i kept you in a distance, trying not to let you get too close to me. But you always found a way to get me. To reach my heart. To soothe me.
I may have not any chance to make you mine. To wake up with you in the morning, to kiss you in the forehead, to make you breakfast, to take you out for a nice dinner. But all i want, all i've ever wanted those past twelve years is for you to be loved and to feel safe. And if agent Pike offers that i want you to leave with him without even thinking about me.
But please if there's a small doubt in your heart please, i am begging you, give me a chance. Give us a chance.
Always yours,
Patrick Jane
