Hey Guys, just my way to end the season finale. I'll work on Her Beauty Cannot Compare when inspiration hits.
Jane is on his couch in the office looking miserable because Lisbon left with Pike to go to DC. He is alone, he turns himself to face the back of the couch and his shoulders are visibly shaking as he's crying
He hears a soft voice say "Patrick?.." Jane recognises the voice and springs from his couch onto his feet.
"Teresa.." he says rubbing his eyes in disbelief. "Are you really here?"
"Yeah," she said
"What are you doing here? You're supposed to be on a plane to DC with Agent Pike."
"I know, I couldn't do it. Not with what you said earlier."
"Really."
"Yeah,"
"Seriously?"
"I sure hope so, otherwise I've wasted a perfectly good ticket."
Jane flings his arms around Lisbon and chuckles. "Please don't joke about this right now. I'm only just beginning to recover from this surprise."
"Okay" Lisbon snuggles into his embrace.
When Jane lets go, he goes down onto one knee.
"Teresa, Darling. I can't risk losing you again. You're my guiding light. Marry me." he said as clutched her hands in his.
"No." she replied. Jane's face drops and he lowers his head. He lets go of her hands and slumps back onto his heels.
Lisbon places her hand on his cheek and strokes it. "No, not yet." Tears form in her eyes. "Not yet." she says softly.
Jane lifts his head "Not yet." he repeats. Lisbon nods her head and repeats "Not yet".
"We're working towards it though, right?" He asked looking up at her.
"Yes," She smiles, lowers her lips to his and kisses him.
THE END
