Disclaimer: The Mentalist doesn't belong to me. It belongs to Bruno Heller, Primrose Hill Productions, Warner Bros. Television and CBS. If it belong to me there would be a season 8 with the beautiful Jane family.

Note: One channel in Latin America, TNT Series is retransmitting The Mentalist, and of course I'm watching it again. This has caused me to feel inspired to write fanfics about Jisbon, especially for the Red John episode, which is undoubtedly an epic moment of the series and one of my favorites.

Summary: Jane and Lisbon had planned the outcome after Red John, including their escape. What both ignored was that would lead them to their own perfect world. My version of how 6x08 "Red John" would continue if Lisbon had run away with Jane. I hope you like it. JISBON FOREVER

Chapter 1 – It's Over

Chapter Note: Words in italics are direct quotes from the show, bold italics are thoughts of Jane or Lisbon.

I am Venezuelan, an according to the telephone code that is shown on the screen in "My Blue Heaven" Jane is in Venezuela, and for the record I don't know any island in the country that remotely resembles what was shown in the show. So, in this story I describe how Margarita's Island really is, the main island of Venezuela. The places described as the hotel, mall and restaurants are also based on reality, given that, although I live on the mainland, not on the island and I have gone there on many occasions.

Patrick Jane and Teresa Lisbon had thought-out numerous plans to catch and technically also kill serial killer Red John. They were already on Plan X and still didn't have him and even this part wasn't foreseen in their initial plan, the CBI completely shut down and destroyed by the FBI; Lisbon thought standing alone in what had been the Serious Crimes Unit bullpen in the CBI building. There was nothing left to hang on there, her career was completely destroyed, but it didn't matter, she just hoped to beat Red John in this game.

At that moment, FBI Agent Dennis Abbott entered the room and interrupted her thoughts.

- Did you hear what Bertram was doing at the gas station? – Abbott said

- No – Lisbon said

- Using a pay phone. Guess who he was calling. – Abbott said

- I'm gonna guess Jane. – Lisbon said

- Ahh. Yeah. So, where is he? – Abbott asks

- I don't know – Lisbon said with a straight face

- I think you do – Abbott said with a smile

- I can't help what you think – Lisbon said

- I think your boyfriend is colluding with a dangerous fugitive. I think he is up to his neck in this Blake association craziness, and probably you are, too. – Abbott said

- I'm not. He's not. Jane can't help who calls him, and he's not my boyfriend – Lisbon said retaining her best poker face

- It's a damn shame, Teresa. By all accounts you were a good cop – Abbott said

- I still am – Lisbon said as she left

Teresa was angry, so she left Abbott alone in the room and left the CBI. Downstairs she met her three former agents Wayne Rigsby, Grace Van Pelt and Kimball Cho. They didn't know the full plan, only what was necessary, Lisbon wanted to keep them out of danger and possible legal repercussions. She specifies to them that they were alone now and that they had to watch over themselves, they didn't have the CBI to protect themselves. They wanted to know where Jane was, but she didn't tell them, the end was near and she wanted to keep them out, especially Wayne and Grace, they had a family, that was a lot to lose. After leaving them she went to meet Jane at the William Land Park.

- Hey – Lisbon said

- Hey – Jane said

- You're a wanted man – Lisbon said sitting next to him on the bench in the park

- Well, I like to think so – Jane said with his trademark smile

- Seriously. Abbott put an actual warrant out on you – Lisbon said

- Eh. It's not the first time – Jane said

- So, you gonna tell me, or what? – Lisbon asks

- Oh, yeah. Uh Bertram called me. – Jane said

- I know – Lisbon said

- Mm – Jane said

- What did he say? – Lisbon ask

- Well, whatever he wanted to say, he didn't have time – Jane said

- Why the hell is he still here? What does he want? – Lisbon ask

- I'm guessing he'll call back soon and tell me – Jane said

- Your phone's not safe. The FBI – Jane said

- Yeah, they have a tap on the line. But they don't have a trace yet. If they had a trace, then I'd be arrested already – Jane said

- Maybe so, but sooner or later, they'll get a trace on you – Lisbon said

- I know. But I can't get rid of my phone until Bertram calls. It's all very suspenseful – Jane said

- What does he want? – Lisbon said

- Who? – Jane said

- Bertram – Lisbon said

- We'll see – Jane said

- Now you're being evasive – Lisbon said

- What beady little eyes birds have. Tiny dinosaurs, you know? – Jane said

- I know. I know you know what he wants. What does he want? – Lisbon said. Jane didn't answer because at that moment his phone start ringing, he knew it was Bertram

After Jane finished the conversation with Bertram where they agreed where they would meet, Lisbon waited anxiously to know what he had told him.

- What'd he say? – Lisbon ask

- He wants to meet with me – Jane said

- It's a trap – Lisbon said

- Probably – Jane said

- Well, what are you gonna do? – Lisbon said

- I'm gonna meet him – Jane said

- You can't – Lisbon said

- Trust me, I know what I'm doing – Jane said

- Jane, don't do this. Think about it. The FBI is gonna get Bertram soon enough – Lisbon said

- I don't want the FBI to get him. You knew this day was coming. It's here – Jane said

- Let me come with you – Lisbon said

- No, I don't want you involved – Jane said

- Involved? I am involved – Lisbon said

- Not anymore. I'm gonna need to borrow your gun – Jane said

- My gun? – Lisbon ask surprise

- Yes, your gun. I'm not gonna use it. Just a prop. Teresa, trust me, please. Just trust me – Jane said. Teresa gave him her gun and he put it behind. Then he held her tight and kissed her on the cheek.

- Thank you – Jane said and run in the opposite direction of Lisbon

The FBI agents saw Jane leave the park and followed him; the chase ended when Jane crashed the car with one of the FBI SUVs. After getting out of the car, he was cornered by the FBI, Jane started asking for Abbott.

- Uhh! Where's the man in charge here? Where is Abbott? – Jane said

- Get down on your knees. Keep your hands where I can see them – The FBI Agent said

- Where is Abbott? I have to go – Jane said

- All right, take it down a notch, people. He's not Al Capone – Abbott said

- Abbott, please listen to me. I can tell that you're a man of honor. On my honor, I will give myself up in an hour. But right now, I just - I just need just forget it – Jane said

- No. No, tell me. Come on. No, what do you need? What do you need, huh? You need an hour? For what? Where are you going? Who are you gonna go meet? No? Well, let's take a trip downtown, shall we? – Abbott said

- Hey, whoa – The FBI Agent said trying to stop Lisbon

- No. You can let her go. Hi, Miss Lisbon – Abbott said

- Do me this one favor, Abbott, cop to cop. Let him go, and I swear I will bring him back later – Lisbon said

- Not happening. And what is all this urgency I'm hearing here? Hmm? Oh. You made a plan with Bertram. Is that it? Is that what you did? – Abbott said

- Please, Abbott – Lisbon said

- FBI! Back it off! – another FBI Agent said

- CBI. Back it up yourself – Cho said with Rigsby and Van Pelt behind him

- What's this? – Abbott ask surprise

- Let him go, Abbott. He's done nothing wrong – Cho said

- Hey, guys. You know, it's good to see you. I hate to bring you down, but there is no CBI. That badge is a toy, and you're all impersonating officers of the law – Abbott said

- Whatever. Let him go – Cho said

- Are you mad-dogging me right now? The FBI? – Abbott said getting close to Cho

- You say you're legit FBI, but how do we know? – Van Pelt said

- Yeah, you could be members of the Blake association for all we know – Rigsby said

- We're not – Abbott said

- Prove it – Cho said

- Your man Reede Smith was a member. Why not you? And how do we know Jane's not in danger? – Lisbon said

- That's absurd – Abbott said

- I'm sorry, agent Abbott, but it is our duty to protect this man until we're assured his safety – Lisbon said

- Hey. Let him go – Cho said while he, Van Pelt and Rigsby put out their guns and pointed to Abbott

- Oh, whoa, whoa. It's all right. Just stand down. Stand down, guys. No bloodshed required. It's cool. Let him go – Abbott said

- Take my car. Go! – Lisbon said to Jane

- Sir? - The FBI Agent ask

- It's okay – Abbott said

- Thank you, guys! – Jane scream to Cho, Rigsby and Val Pelt

- We done? – Abbott ask Lisbon

- He's gone. We're done – Lisbon said to Abbott

- Hmm. Arrest them. Put your guns down on the ground slowly – Abbott said but they didn't make any movement

- Do as he says – Lisbon said and they put their weapons on the floor, making it clear that they only obeyed orders from Lisbon.

Abbott's agents boarded the four of them in a SUV, while Abbott sat in the driver's seat. He had sent his agents for Lisbon's car after Jane had left, of course he had no idea who he was dealing with and the many scenarios that he and Lisbon had planned in their minds. Discarding the car immediately was one of them.

- This is unit 4. We have the vehicle in sight, stationary on fifth and Sherman – The unit 4 said

- Stay back, stay back. This could be the meet – Abbott said on the radio

- What the heck? – The unit 4 said obviously surprise

- Unit 4, what's the situation? Unit 4, respond, damn it – Abbott said desperate to the radio

- Boss, it was some kids in Lisbon's car. Jane wasn't there. We don't have Jane. Repeat. We don't have Jane – The unit 4 said, Abbott put down the radio, he was visibly upset

- Don't dig yourself any deeper. Where did he go? – Abbott asks

- I don't know – Lisbon said

- You guys really have a death wish, don't you? - Abbott said

- Sir, we really don't know – Rigsby said

- Mm-hmm – Abbott said and get out of the car letting Lisbon, Cho, Rigsby and Van Pelt alone in it.

Abbott was talking to another agent in a car further away, pointing to things on a map; while inside the car Val Pelt seemed desperate for not knowing and not being able to do anything.

- Hey! Hello?! Hey, what's going on? – Val Pelt said while hitting her head with the car window

- Grace, what are you doing? – Rigsby said

- Hey! – Val Pelt continue to scream

- What? Please don't do that. You're worse than Cho – Rigsby said

- They need to tell us what's going on – Van Pelt said

- They don't need to do anything. And we can't do anything, so please just relax – Rigsby said

- Relax? How can I relax? You know, sometimes I think you like being helpless – Van Pelt said

- Okay, fine, I take it back. Don't relax. Just break the window with your forehead and we'll all jump out and make a run for it – Rigsby said

- Guys, let's try to keep it together, okay? - Lisbon said

- Okay, I'm sorry – Rigsby said

- Sorry – Val Pelt said

After a few seconds of silence Lisbon began to give orders to her former agents, who really still acted as if they still were her agents.

- I need a favor, you guys have to create a distraction so I can get out of here in this car, I have to meet Jane and help him or this can go very wrong - Lisbon said

- Sure boss, what do you want us to do? - Cho ask

- Van Pelt you are going to tell the agents that you need to go to the bathroom and when they open the door I want the three of you to jump out of the car on the agents, I will take this SUV, half of the SUVs are looking for Jane, so when they reach to me I will have already get rid of this one. Did you understand what I want you to do? - Lisbon ask

- Yes boss, we understand - Cho, Rigsby and Van Pelt said at the same time

- Guys, I want you to know that if this is the last time I see you, thank you for being the best agents I could have at my command, really thanks for everything - Lisbon said

- Same boss, it was an honor to work with you - Cho said while Rigsby nodded and Van Pelt could not form a word

Immediately they put the plan in march and Lisbon left speeding with the SUV, whereas the two other SUVs that were in the scene prepared themselves to follow her. Agent Mullins put Rigsby, Van Pelt and Cho in a car and took them back to the CBI, preventing them from escaping as well.

In the meantime, Lisbon had got rid of the FBI car just four blocks later and had taken one of those cars found parked on the street. Incredible the number of laws that I have broken these days, she thought. Finding Jane for her was simple, she had placed a chip on the label of his vest. It was funny, years before she told him that she had placed a GPS tracker on all his suits, but she said it as a joke, now it was real, she knew from experience when he left her on the beach to go meet with the Red John suspects that when they had their next opportunity, she needed to have her own plan up her sleeve and this was it. She check in her cell phone where he was, he should have been in the Alexandria cemetery, but she wanted to be sure, and thank goodness she had done it since he was in a park near a few blocks from the cemetery. She arrive in minutes to the place and started looking for it.

In the meanwhile, Abbott and his agents were wasting their time looking for them in the Alexandria cemetery, they concluded that they should be there after learning that Jane's late wife and daughter were buried there. Upon arrival, they found Bertram's body and another police officer inside the cemetery chapel.

Lisbon found Jane on a secluded side of the park, he was standing on top of Sheriff McAllister, he seemed to be dead, he wasn't moving. She immediately ran to his side.

- ¡Jane! - Lisbon scream

- Lisbon, what are you doing here? - Jane ask

- I came to help you - Lisbon said standing next to him. They both fell silent as she watched the body of Sheriff McAllister

- It's Red John, isn't he? Is all over? - Lisbon ask

- Yes, he is. It finish and you must leave. I don't want this to harm you - Jane said

- It's a joke isn't it? I escaped from the FBI after being arrested and I stole a car to get here, I gave you a gun, I help you escape from the FBI and I'm an accomplice to a homicide, don't be offended, but I'm involved in this to the bottom - Lisbon said

- Actually, two homicides, but I don't think the FBI counts them. You're right when you put it like that - Jane said with thoughtful look

- Come on, we must go, the FBI is probably already in the cemetery, we have to get out of here - Lisbon said and took Jane hand and they start walking

Jane took out the cell phone that he had bought from the boy in the park, he gave the phone to Lisbon so that she could dial Cho's number, she did it and gave it back to him. Cho's phone rang on the evidence table that was watched by Agent Mullins; Van Pelt, Rigsby and Cho made a gesture of wanting to answer it, but Mullins didn't seem to like it.

- Don't even think about it – Agent Mullins said making a gesture for the three to return to their seats.

The phone entered the voicemail, so Jane and Lisbon decided to leave a message.

- Guys, it's over. It's done. I just want you to know I'm okay – Jane said and Lisbon took the phone.

- And that we are going to miss you – Lisbon said, then she closed the phone and threw it in a trash can.

Lisbon and Jane stopped a taxi that took them directly to the Mather Jet Center. There was a hangar with a jet prepared waiting for them. Also, in the hangar they had two suitcases stored with lots of cash and fake documents. Upon arrival the pilot received them and asked if it was time and they were ready to leave and they nodded, so he went to prepare the jet.

- Lisbon this is the point of no return, you're sure this is what you want, I know we talked about it, about leaving so that the FBI didn't catch us, but seriously I want you to be sure, that you understand that what you up to do. We can't go back here after we leave in that plane. I don't care, I have nothing to lose, but you have family here - Jane said seeing Lisbon in the eyes

- Jane I'm sure, I'm an adult, I know what I did and I know what I'm doing, we'll both get on that plane and we'll get out of here as we planned. Jane, I never see my family and the only thing that tied me to this place was my career and I think that in these days we did an excellent job not only destroying my career but also the institution for which we worked. We have nothing to worry about, we leave everything ready and we make sure that Rigsby, Val Pelt and Cho are well, so get on the plane. Today in the park you told me to trust you and I did, now I ask you to trust me - Lisbon said and hugged him tight, Jane hugged her just as hard, then took her hand and together they got on the plane.

They placed the money bags in the compartment above and sat next to each other in the seats. 20 minutes later they took off in the direction of the Caribbean. Both were silent for a long time, thinking and staring into space until Jane broke the silence.

- I have a doubt, of all the events that occurred today there is only one that doesn't close to me, how did you find me in the park, if we were supposed to meet at the Alexandria cemetery? - Jane ask

- I put a tracking device on the label of your vest, I did it while you were changing in your CBI hiding spot; and it's your fault, I didn't want the beach thing to be repeated - Lisbon said

- I'm impressed, I think I've influenced you a lot; I regret what happened on the beach, not what I said, that's true, it's what I feel, what I regret is what I did, I just wanted to protect you, I didn't want you to end up like the rest of the people that have care to me in this world, in the psychiatric or the cemetery. I didn't do a good job obviously - Jane said with sad face

- I think you did, I'm not in a psychiatric hospital or a cemetery, I'm on a private plane on the way to an island in the Caribbean, thank you very much - Lisbon said with a shy smile trying to cheer him up, although under the circumstances that would be difficult.

Both returned to the silent after that and at some point Teresa fell asleep. Jane was still thinking as he looked through the window at the dark sky.

I killed Red John, I got my revenge, I did justice for Angela and Charlotte. What am I supposed to do now? How should I feel? I destroyed the lives and careers of all my friends and, even more important, Lisbon's life. She seems so peaceful when she sleeps, so quiet, I don't know how she does it after the day we had, she looks like an angel, well she is an angel, she has been mine since I met her and today she resigned all her life for me. She stayed and ran away with me, she chose me, this must be destiny, the sign of my new life, I feel it as a reward, I ended with some very bad men and as a reward I am left with the angel that saved me and I know that I fell in love without even noticing, it must be because my personal angels from above know I cannot live without her.

Jane fell asleep with his thoughts with his head resting on Lisbon's shoulder, her smell was intoxicating, gave him some peace of mind.

Hours later the pilot informed them on the intercom that they have to fasten their seat belts because they were going to land, this sound woke up and alerted Jane and Lisbon immediately.

- Good morning, Lisbon. How are you? - Jane ask as she sat up straight and fastened her belt

- Good. How much I slept? What time is it? - Lisbon ask smiling to him

- 2:30 am Sacramento time so it's 5:30 am local time - Jane said looking at his watch

- Well I hope there is an open food place when we land because I'm hungry, I don't remember the last time I ate. And you? - Lisbon said

- No, I don't remember having eaten yesterday either, I think we only worked on adrenaline. When we land, we will look for food, I agree - Jane said and gave her the first, small but genuine smile since he killed Red John

After landing they went to immigrations, both with fake passports, made by experts in the USA. Now they were the Miller's and they were on vacation.

- Bienvenidos a Venezuela, ¿sus pasaportes por favor? (Welcome to Venezuela, your passports please?) - the immigration agent said extending her hand, what Lisbon understood as delivering their passports.

- Hi, thanks, here it is - Lisbon said handing over their passports. The agent observed the passports, looked at them carefully, then sealed them and returned them quietly.

- Reason for your visit Mr. Miller? - The immigration agent ask when she understood that they didn't speak Spanish

- Romantic vacation, I going to teach my wife how to surf - Jane said with a flirty smile hugging Lisbon. The immigration agent believed the whole act and thought they were a beautiful couple

- Good luck, I hope you enjoy your stay - the immigration agent said

- Thank you very much - Lisbon and Jane said and went to the exit.

When they left the airport, they took a taxi, but it was difficult for them to communicate, Spanish wasn't a language that neither of them spoke very well. As they could, they made the driver understand that they wanted him to take them to a hotel. He took them to the "Ikin Margarita Hotel and Spa", a 5-star hotel about 40 minutes from the airport. When they arrived, they went to the front desk, where the receptionist received them.

- Buenos Días, Bienvenidos al Ikin Margarita Hotel and Spa, mi nombre es Elena, ¿en qué puedo ayudarlos? (Good morning, Welcome to Ikin Margarita Hotel and Spa, my name is Elena, how can I help you?) - Elena, the receptionist ask

- Any chance someone speaks English? We don't speak Spanish well - Lisbon said

- Of course, I speak English, how can I help you? - Elena ask

- We need two rooms - Jane said

- No, one, with a big bed and ocean view, please - Lisbon said interrupting Jane

- OK excellent. Anything else? - Elena ask

- Yes, a question, can we ask for breakfast to the room right now? We know is a little early - Lisbon ask

- Yes, of course you can - Elena said

They paid the room in dollars in cash, which surprised Elena a bit, but didn't care. Then the bellhop named Franklin Morales, took them to their room. Jane thanked him and gave him a 20 tip; Franklin told him to call him if he needed something, but Jane didn't understand him very well, so just assumed what he had said and nodded. The room was very beautiful, the walls were painted a beige tone and the decoration was in subtle golden tones and olive green with black furniture. It had a dining table for two, a sofa with two armchairs in front of the TV, on the other side there was a desk, the bed was huge and comfortable, the bathroom was decorated in the same tones and had a deep tub. Curtains from the ceiling to the floor covered the sliding doors that led to the beautiful balcony overlooking the sea, Lisbon opened the doors to the balcony and got out, Jane followed her immediately. The balcony had a small sofa with a coffee table, the view was beautiful, the sun was rising, the blue of the sea mixed with the sky and the sound of the waves seemed a relaxing melody. They felt like the sea breeze wrapped them completely.

- The view is beautiful; it looks like a paradise - Lisbon said

- It is. The waves look great for surfing, do you know how to do that? - Jane said

- Of course not, I'm from Chicago, not California - Lisbon said giving him a tap on the shoulder

- Don't worry, I'll teach you, it's easy - Jane said with a little smile

- Shouldn't surprise me that you know how to do it, you are an expert in almost everything. Come, let's try to ask for breakfast, assuming that someone understands us - Lisbon said

- The main thing is eggs and coffee, eggs are said "huevos" and coffee I think is "café", and I want a tea - Jane said taking the menu from the night table

- Very well, as you seem to know the words you order - Lisbon said passing the room phone

Jane did his best to order the breakfast and minutes later they delivered it to the room. Jane had managed to order two American breakfasts, they also brought them orange juice, although he was sure he had not ordered that, plus coffee and tea. He and Lisbon sat at the table to eat, at first in silence, just watching the view and hearing the birds sing, then Lisbon opened the conversation.

- This food is very good, I will say that you did a good job ordering. And I love this coffee, Venezuelans really know how to make amazing coffee, and how about your tea? - Lisbon said

- It's very good too. I like it - Jane said

- Jane you want to talk about what happened yesterday, I don't think it's good that you keep and swallow all that yourself - Lisbon said trying to take his hand on the table

- Give me time, I want to understand it myself before we speak, please - Jane said with a serious voice

- Of course, Jane, I understand - Lisbon said with a sympathetic face

- And could you do me a favor, call me Patrick, we no longer work together at the CBI, we are best friends and you sound very formal - Jane said with a smile

- Ok, does that mean you are going to start calling me Teresa? - Lisbon ask

- Yes, Teresa, besides I love your name, I think it's beautiful - Jane said with a flirty voice

- Ok, very good Patrick. And what should we do today? - Lisbon ask a little flushed

- Adapt to the weather, we go shopping. We arrived here with nothing, I think we need clothes and many other things. We must go shopping, we will have fun, I like to go shopping and I know that although you don't admit it, you also like it. What woman in the world doesn't like to go and attack all the stores in the mall? - Jane said

- You're right, we should go shopping. And maybe I like shopping a little - Lisbon said while they finished their breakfast

After finishing the breakfast, they stored almost all the money in the room safe, they only took what they will used it to buy in the mall. In the Lobby, Elena the receptionist got them a taxi that would take them to the Sambil, one of the largest and most complete shopping centers on the island. When arriving Lisbon was surprised with how big it was, she didn't expect to find such a place on the island. She clung to Jane's arm as they searched the information place, there they were given a map, which helped them move better around the place. They started touring the stores and one of the first that they recognized was the Aero Rayban, where they tried and bought several pairs of sunglasses. Then they went to the Tommy Hilfiger, where Lisbon had Jane try on several shirts for her.

- Turn around, you know what, I think I like the previous one more - Lisbon said from the chair while Jane tried on the tenth shirt

- You are aware that I will revenge for this, right? - Jane said

- Yes, I know. But in the meantime, I enjoy this - Lisbon said laughing

They continued walking and buying in the stores; they went to Basinger, Ben Sherman, XIC & XOC, Zara, US Polo, Timberland, Quicksilver (where Jane came out with a few shorts for the beach), Jeep, Columbia, Aishop, Kenneth Cole, Clarks, Nine West, Swarovski, Adidas and Nike. Arriving at a store called Rafaella, Jane practically dragged Lisbon to enter. This one sold beautiful dresses and Jane wanted to get out of there with a few for Lisbon.

- Jane, what are you doing? - Lisbon ask while he pulled her into the store

- These dresses are beautiful; I like them and you're going to model me some and I told you not to call me Jane - Jane said

- Sorry, old habits are hard to change. Even so, Patrick, I'm not going to model or buy any dress - Lisbon said

- Of course, you're Teresa, you're going to start with this one - Jane said giving Lisbon a knee-length turquoise dress with empire cut and V neck, but not too deep

- You're crazy - Lisbon said taking the dress and going to the dressing room

- That you already knew my dear Teresa and still here we are - Jane said while sitting on the couch.

A few moments later Lisbon came out of the dressing room with the dress, this left Jane breathless, looked her up and down without saying a word, the dress was perfect, she looked like a goddess.

- What do you think? - Lisbon ask nervously

- Perfect. Beautiful. Forget the angry little princess, you look like a goddess with this one. We're going to take it, period. Now try another one, I love this - Jane said with a huge smile that made Lisbon smile and felt a kind of tingle in her whole body

At the end they left the store with seven dresses, although if it had depended on Jane it would have been the whole store, everything that Lisbon try on seemed beautiful to him. Then they went to the Samsung store where they bought some cell phones to communicate with each other and some laptops to use the internet, not to communicate with anyone, they couldn't, someone from Abbott's team could track them, although it wasn't something that didn't worried them much since they didn't have neither jurisdiction nor possibility of extraditing them from here. Then they went through the store of Bath & Body Works and Clinique, where Jane noticed that all women needed a certain number of cosmetics and creams to feel good and happy with themselves; Lisbon despite being a tough agent was no exception to this rule. They continued walking and passed in front of the Skechers store and Lisbon dragged Jane into it.

- Come on, we need running shoes - Lisbon said

- Of course not. I don't need that since I don't run - Jane said

- Well you didn't run, but now you will. Van Pelt is not here so that will make you my new running partner, it is also healthy, it will be good for you. It will not kill you to exercise a little - Lisbon said with a smile

- I prefer to exercise my mind, thank you very much - Jane said sarcastically

Even so, Jane lost the battle, he and Lisbon left the store with their pairs of Skechers. When they got to the front of the Victoria's Secret store, Lisbon got really nervous, lingerie wasn't something she wanted to model for Jane, at least not in front of people.

- Patrick, can you leave me alone in this store for a while? obviously I need to buy things here and I would feel more comfortable doing it alone - Lisbon said to Jane

- Of course, Teresa, don't worry. I understand, why we don't see each other here in 20 minutes? - Jane said

- Thank you - Lisbon said and gave him a kiss on the cheek and then entered the store

Jane went to the Mont Blanc store where he bought a watch for him and another for Lisbon. He walked a while longer and found a jewelry called Prestige and some force that he couldn't explain make him enter the store. Inside he found himself surrounded by beautiful necklaces, bracelets and rings and immediately wanted to choose something for Lisbon. She was the angel that had saved him and a piece of jewelry couldn't pay for everything she had done for him, but he knew she would love the gesture, and women love jewelry. He began to observe the showcases, the salesman tried to help him, but he wasn't very useful since they didn't understand each other well. A while later he found a necklace that captivated him, an 18Kt White diamond necklace with a heart-shaped diamond pendant, Lisbon will love it, he thought; next to it there was a ring, also a diamond in the shape of a heart, it was an engagement ring and match with the necklace. Jane decided to take it too, but he wouldn't give it to Lisbon, not yet, first he wanted to be sure to what extent Lisbon wanted him and was willing to spend the rest of her life with him, until now it was going well, she was the one who decided to share the room. He fastened to pay for the ring and the necklace to go meet Lisbon again. She was already waiting outside the Victoria's Secret store and had about five bags of it.

- Wow, so you took the store by storm, I see, I told you that you liked to go shopping - Jane said with a smile

- Maybe yes, maybe no; for now I enjoy it with you and what did you buy? - Lisbon ask curiously

- A few watches and a surprise for you, but I'll give it to you later - Jane said

- Uhm that's unfair. You know it's been hours, I think I'm already tired, we should go eat and go back to the hotel - Lisbon said

- I agree, you know here they have a Hard Rock Café, we should go eat there, they have food that we know and we know how to pronounce - Jane said with a little laugh

- Yes, great, hamburger with french fries - Lisbon said laughing

- Exactly, you know me so well - Jane said

- Like you - Lisbon said with a smile and they started walking towards the Hard Rock Café

After lunch, practically dinner given the time, they took a taxi back to the hotel. When they arrived, they greeted Elena and Franklin and went directly to their room to order their purchases. After ordering Jane when to take a shower while Teresa watch the news from the laptop recently installed on the desk, then she took a shower and dressed in one of the dresses that Jane had chosen; It was shirt type with a ribbon in half with a pattern in white, navy blue and gray. Jane on the other was wearing navy blue dress pants with a short sleeved, white shirt and subtle blue-sky stripes.

- What do you think? Are you pleased? I'm wearing a dress - Lisbon said

- Yes, I am very pleased, you look beautiful and admit that you like dresses, that you are a feminine girl, although you try to deny it, it has to do with your work, you wanted to be strong, to be one of the boys, but now it doesn't matter - Jane said looking at her

- Do you have any idea how much worries me how well you read me sometimes? - Lisbon ask

- Yes, I imagine, but still there are many things about you that are a mystery to me - Jane said

- I'm glad then, I know how much you love mysteries and puzzles - Lisbon said smiling

- Yes, and you are my favorite. I ordered some bottles of wine while you were in the shower, what do you think if we go to the beach to have a few glasses and see the stars, maybe I will show you some constellations, what do you say? - Jane said

- I love the idea, let's go - Lisbon said taking two glasses and walking towards the door. Jane took a towel, his jacket and followed with the two bottles of wine

They walked for a while along the shore until they reached a remote side, where the music from the hotel bar was no longer heard. Jane placed the towel on the sand and they both sat on it, Jane put one of the bottles in the small cooler, opened the other and filled the glasses with Lisbon's help.

- We should make a toast, although I don't know if we have reasons to toast - Lisbon said

- I believe that we have reasons to toast, we achieve what we set out to do; we caught and killed Red John and several of his friends and accomplices, we ended up with the Blake association without having foreseen it and we protected Grace, Rigsby and Cho. It wasn't so bad considering that in some of the scenarios that we imagined the two of us ended up in body bags. As far as I'm concerned, having finished with Red John and your being alive are all the reasons I need to toast - Jane said seriously

- In that case let's drink for that, because bad men can no longer do more harm, because our friends including Madelaine are free of danger and because you and I are alive - Lisbon said and she and Jane put their glasses together and they had a drink

- This is good wine, I like it - Lisbon said while watching the glass and the landscape

- Yes, I also like it - Jane said, he paused, took another drink and continued the conversation. He felt he should tell her what he thought about killing Red John.

- You know, it's good that you included Madelaine in the list, I had forgotten, now she can live her life out of danger and happy. She deserves it, she was a good boss and she's a good woman - Jane said

- Yes, she is. I also appreciate her very much and I know that you too, Madelaine and her children will finally be fine - Lisbon said

- Yeah, I do. Teresa please look at me a moment, I need to tell you something, I'll just say it once and I want it to be the first and last time we have this conversation - Jane said burying his glass a little in the sand and taking both of Lisbon's hands in his. She looked at him with a worried face.

- Teresa, I don't regret killing McAllister, I didn't regret it yesterday, I don't regret it today and I will never regret in the future. He hurt a lot of people, he killed my wife, my daughter, it hurt Kristina, Bosco and his team and it hurt you; I'm glad that he cannot hurt anyone else anymore and I'm completely incapable of feeling bad for having finished with him. I also know that I will not kill anyone else, I'm not a murderer, I'm not like him, he knew it himself, he told me, I'm a good man and I don't enjoy torturing others, I did what I did for principles of justice, he deserved it. For the first time since Angela and Charlotte are no longer with me, I feel at peace with myself. Thank you, because I owe everything to you, since I met you, you became my angel on earth and I owe you all the support you gave me through this, I hope that I live long enough to pay you for it, I want you to be happy, it is the most important thing for me now - Jane said as if he had taken a weight off, seeing Lisbon directly in the eyes. She, on her side, was running some tears.

- Thanks for being so honest with me, that's priceless for me. I also don't regret what we did Patrick, I was honest when I told you that men like Red John were better dead and I hold it, all the time we spent with this case made me change my mind, after seeing everything he did. You have no idea how happy I am that you feel better and at peace with yourself. By the way, you don't owe me anything, you have any idea of how many cases you helped me close, how many people you helped and for which you achieved justice, yes you gave me millions of headaches, but everything worth it and you also made my life and work fun. Today I feel at peace, free and happy, I had not felt like that in a long time, this is an adventure that we are beginning and the truth is that there is nobody else in this world with whom I would like to share it, you are my best friend - Lisbon said genuinely.

- Teresa, thank you. I told you this once, anything for you and it will be like that until I'm a few meters underground. I'm sorry for the headaches that I cause you, although I can't promise that I would stop, it is in my nature - Jane said with a smile hugging Lisbon

- I know, Patrick and I don't want you to change. It's what makes you be you - Lisbon said

- Thank you. Teresa, I have a gift for you, remember I told you I had a surprise for you - Jane said taking the case out of his jacket and giving it to Teresa

- Open it, I hope you like it - Jane said with a smile while Teresa opened the necklace case.

- OMG Patrick, this is beautiful, I love it. Can you put it on me please? - Lisbon said giving him the necklace and holding her hair. Jane put the necklace on her and they both smiled

- Thanks, I really love it. Does this mean that I now own your heart? - Lisbon ask with a joking smile

- You have been the owner of my heart for a long time, so you shouldn't worry about that. Teresa, you said that I was your best friend, what would you say if I told you that I would like to be more than your best friend? - Jane said seriously and this left Lisbon completely in shock for a while

- What do you mean? - Lisbon ask with a mixture of surprise and a smile

- What I mean to say is that in all these years I have forgotten how to act like normal human being, and I play games and I trick people to avoid the truth of how I feel and the idea of letting anyone close to me is terrifying, for obvious reasons. But the truth, Teresa, is that I can't imagine waking up knowing that I won't see you. The truth is I love you. You can't imagine how good it feels to say out loud, but it scares me and it is the truth, it is the truth of what I feel - Jane said almost in tears and Lisbon was surprised again. This was undoubtedly the most honest conversation she has had with Patrick Jane since the day they met and the most beautiful he had ever told her.

- Inside me I think I always knew that you acted in the way you did for the exact reasons you just told me, of course I tried not to think about it a lot because I didn't feel I had the right to think so much about you and believe me I do that a lot, I always believed that your search for revenge was the most important thing for you, although on several occasions you try to show me that I was more important, even so, I didn't allow myself to get excited about you because I thought that I would end up with a broken heart and the fact that you tell me what you just said seems like a dream because I feel the same way - Lisbon said with a huge smile

- Well, that's lucky - Jane said also with a huge smile

- Say it again - Lisbon said but Jane didn't say anything, he put his hand on her chin, got himself closer to her and put his lips on hers. Her lips feel so soft and warm, his hands were now stroking the soft skin of her cheek. They felt fireworks inside them. The kiss was slow at first, then it began to increase, she put her hand on his golden locks that she always wanted to touch, the were so soft, also parted her lips to give access to his tongue. Jane move her hand to her small back and put her closer to him. A tingling crawl begin in all their body. Their tongues were dancing inside each other mouths and they were loving the feeling. When the air became a problem, they pull apart.

- I love you so much Teresa - Jane said with a smile

- I love you too Patrick - Lisbon said and she kiss Patrick again

They stayed a while longer on the beach, just watching the stars, finishing the bottle of wine that he had opened and sharing more passionate kisses. When it started to get a little cold Jane decided to go back to the room to warm up a bit, although Lisbon would impose on Jane her ideas of how to get warm.

- You know I'm still a little cold - Lisbon said

- Do you want me to get you a blanket or a sweater? - Jane ask

- No, I prefer you to keep me warm - Lisbon said hugging Jane and giving him a passionate kiss, showing him all the desire she felt for him

- That can be easily fixed - Jane said returning the kiss with the same passion

Jane's hands tightened on Lisbon's waist and pulled her closer to him. Their bodies vibrated with each rose of their lips and already the kiss didn't seem enough and then the caresses began. Caresses that were leading to something else, the moment they would become one. They separated to take some air, but remained together in a hug and their eyes connected.

- If you're ready Patrick, I want everything from you, I want to be all yours - Lisbon said

- I love you, Teresa. It's been like that for a long time and there is nothing I would like more at this moment than to make you mine - Jane said

There was no turning back with what was going to happen. It was the culmination of love, desire and passion that both had to hide for so long. He kissed her sweetly. He wanted to be tender and not hurt her. He unbuttoned her dress and slowly pulled it back over her head. He took her slowly to the bed and then watched her closely, he love her body. He always wanted her and this was the time to show her. Lisbon was facing him only with her navy-blue lace lingerie set that she had bought at Victoria's Secret in the morning.

- Wow, this is why you wanted me to leave you alone? - Jane ask amazed by the beautiful set

- Yes, I didn't want to model this in the store, this is just for you - Lisbon said with a flirtatious voice

- I'm very happy about that, this is a view I'm not willing to share - Janes said kissing her

Lisbon was a little nervous, obviously it was not the first time she was with a man, but the fact that it was the first time with a man she loved made her feel that way. Jane was still in front of her, dressed in her white shirt and dress pants, only had took off his jacket when they entered the room. He removed her sandals while looking her in the eyes, then began to kiss her feet. It was something sexy and nobody had ever done it before. So, he was ascending, kissing her legs, her thighs that caused her to hold her breath, but he kept going until he reached her lips. They continued with more passionate kisses, more daring caresses. They were both discovering each other and without a doubt it was something they loved.

- I love you ... I love you so much, Teresa - Jane whispered in her ear, then started down her neck, filling her with kisses. She loved all the sensations that he was producing. She could feel in his caresses and his kisses, his love for her.

Jane lifted her a little and put her hands behind her back, unbuttoning her brazier, which was rolling across her skin as she kissed his shoulder. Then she lay back on the bed and he took his hands straight to her panties and took then off slowly while kissing her legs. Now she was in front of him, completely naked. Jane covered her body with his, reaching to her lips and kissing them with passion, then descended to her firm breasts covering them with erotic caresses and sweet kisses. She stroked his back, but soon realized that he was fully dressed

- I need to see you and feel you. I want to feel you're mine too - Lisbon said, as she moaned slowly because of the sensations he caused her kissing her breasts. Jane made a move to start taking off his shirt, but Lisbon stopped him. It was something she wanted to do, just as he had taken off her clothes, Lisbon began to undress him slowly, torturing him with each kiss and each touch. Letting him know that she also had that power over his body.

Their games, touches and kisses continued. Their bodies didn't seem to get tire, they asked for more and more. It was perfect, it was love. When they couldn't take it anymore, it was time to be more united than ever, Jane positioned himself and waited to Lisbon would give him her approval to enter as he had wanted to do for so long. She kissed him and that was all the approval that Jane needed. She put on a strange face when he entered her, which made him stop, he was afraid of hurting her and that wasn't what he wanted; He wanted to make it as special and sweet as possible, that she felt that he loved her as no one had ever done before.

- I hurt you? - Jane ask looking her in the eyes. She shook her head

- I just needed a second to get used to it. Please, Patrick, make me yours, as I've always wanted - Lisbon said in a whisper

Jane moved slowly inside her and true passion broke loose. They were making love, it was something that surpassed both, they had loved and silenced that love for so long and at that moment it turned out to be overwhelming. Jane wanted to remain soft and sweet but his instincts keep him from it and his self-control was about to disappear. Lisbon smiled when she saw him fighting, and in an agile movement she managed to put him under her and took all the control and she wasn't subtle at all and began to drive him crazy with each thrust of passion. She was showing him that she wasn't as fragile as he thought she was. Jane didn't mind at all that she had taken control, in fact, based on their story that was normal and he was enjoying it more. She kissed him and caressed him as much as she could. Their moans were audible, their passion uncontrollable, the moment of orgasm was approaching; Jane put her back underneath, he was no longer afraid of hurting her and kept the rhythm that she had established, everything went crazy, her onslaughts increased until they both ended up shouting the name of the other due to a powerful orgasm that invaded them, leaving them in a fantasy world. Jane lay down beside her, took her in his arms, their breaths were still out of control. They looked at each other and, in their mouths, had a smile of satisfaction, they had made love for the first time and the rest of the world didn't care to then anymore.

- I love you so much Teresa - Jane said giving her a kiss on her forehead

- I love you too Patrick - Lisbon said and gave him a kiss and they cuddled up with each other as they fell asleep

The bright sun came through the balcony window of the room, the reflection of it woke Jane. Lisbon still slept peacefully cuddled in his arms, he watched her, she looked so calm, happy, beautiful, he couldn't believe how lucky he was to have her. She was a woman he could trust, she was strong, she was at peace with herself, certainly better than him, she knew the worst side of him and still loved him, she was perfect and he was going to spend the rest of his days taking care of her and making her happy. Jane stroked her hair and kissed her on the forehead while Lisbon made her best sound, grumbling of let me sleep.

- Good morning, angry little princess, the sun has come out, it's time to get up - Jane said

- Mm, Patrick I want to sleep - Lisbon said trying to put her head under Jane's chest and the blanket

- But honey, we should take advantage of the waves in the morning for your surf lessons - Jane said with a smile

- Okay, okay, I'm getting up - Lisbon said without moving a muscle, which made Jane begin to kiss her all over her face and finish in with a kiss on her lips, immediately Lisbon responded to the kiss, after a few minutes they separated

- If this is your plan to get me out of bed, I warn you that it is not working for you - Lisbon said with a flirtatious smile. Jane immediately got up from the bed, pulled Lisbon to the edge of it, picked her up and carried her to the bathroom

- Patrick, for heaven's sake put me down - Lisbon said

- No, I already took you out of bed, now you and I will take a good shower and go down to breakfast and then we will go to the beach to start your lessons, perfect plan - Jane said carrying Lisbon to the shower

An hour later Jane and Lisbon went down to the restaurant for breakfast. Then they went to the beach to start with the lessons. A business near the beach rented surfboards and even had an instructor who gave lessons per hour to tourists; Jane didn't need it, so he just rented the tables for him and Lisbon and they both went to the shore.

- Very good, Miss Lisbon, let's first tie your ankle to this strap here - Jane said as she tied Lisbon's ankle to the surfboard

- This is so for I don't miss the board when I fall from it? - Lisbon said laughing

- Not really, but the idea is not bad. Now you must lie face down on the board and practice your rowing movement with both arms, just as I do, so you'll know what you'll do when you're in the water - Jane said while doing the rowing movements and Lisbon followed him

- Ok, officially of all the things that you have made me do, this enters the top of the weirdest - Lisbon said still laughing

- Excellent, I'm glad you find it fun. Now we are going to "come up" or get up on the table. First you will put your hands under your chest flat on the board, then push your body up and raise your feet to place them under you where your hands were, one after the other. Don't grab the edge of the board or you can slip, watch how I do it, then I want you to do it - Jane said giving her a demonstration, then she went to Lisbon to help her practice her "take-off"

- Oh, this seems super fun and complicated at the same time - Lisbon said

- Quiet my love, I think you already have it, let's practice in the water - Jane said

- I doubt it, but at least the water is less hot - Lisbon said smiling

Jane and Lisbon walked to the water and positioned themselves on the boards. Jane decided to perform a demonstration for Lisbon while she was sitting at her table. He took the wave like a professional, he made it look so simple in Lisbon's eyes, although she supposed that it wasn't like that at all.

- Awesome dear, you make it seem so simple, how are you so expert in this? - Lisbon said

- Teresa, I lived in front of the beach in Malibu, it is practically mandatory to know how to surf - Jane said as he lined up his board again with Teresa's

- Of course, it's mandatory. Sorry to ask you this, but Angela knew how to surf? - Lisbon said

- Teresa, I have no problem answering your questions about them, that's fine. And no, Angela didn't know how to surf, she didn't go near the sea, the furthest she go was to the sand to make sand castles with Charlotte. Now come on, it's your turn to take a wave - Jane said as he pushed Lisbon to row

After several attempts to take a wave Lisbon managed to grab one, but seconds later she fell off the board. Jane immediately swim to her, Lisbon came out of the water and endured the table

- Teresa, are you okay? Are you hurt? Do you have any kind of pain? - Jane ask worried

- No, no and no. Calm down Mr. overprotective. I just slipped. I'm fine - Lisbon said laughing

- Ok, but remember that years ago we talked about this, I'm always gonna save you, Lisbon, whether you like it or not - Jane said with smile

- You remember word by word every conversation we've had? - Lisbon ask

- Yes, shouldn't surprise you, I have them in a large room in my memory palace that is dedicated just for you - Jane said and kissed her, Lisbon immediately responded to the kiss with equal passion

- I'll keep it in mind for the possible things that I agree with you in the future. Can we take a break? - Lisbon said with a smile

- Of course, my Teresa, let's go to the shore - Jane said and both paddled to the edge of the beach, placed the boards behind them and sat on the sand

- Dear to be your first time you went very well, you only fell once - Jane said hugging her

- Thanks, I'll take it as a compliment - Lisbon said

- Teresa, you know that I've been thinking, what are we going to do now, we resign everything we knew and we came here, it was our plan, but these two days I thought carefully that we didn't plan beyond this point, I don't know, I think as much as I try for some years I don't think it's good for us to live the rest of our life in a hotel - Jane said

- It's true, I've also been thinking about it, we should settle down in a place, I like here, the only bad thing is the humidity in the day - Lisbon said smiling

- Yes, I also like it here. We could travel around the world too, there are so many places that I would like to see and now I have the travel companion I always wanted - Jane said giving her a kiss on her forehead

- I love the idea, but I still think that we need a place to go back after our adventures around the world - Lisbon said

- You're right, love, we could buy an apartment here on the island, in front of the beach, so we could make sandcastles, swim, surf and walk on the beach forever - Jane said with a smile

- So funny, I don't build castles, now everything else seems fine by me; I like the idea, this may be the new home to return from our adventures - Lisbon said

- Excellent, it's decided, we'll buy an apartment here. By the way, love, it is not necessary that you build the castles, I will build them and you will be the princess of them - Jane said laughing

- Alright, I can live with that, I'll be the princess of your castles - Lisbon said as she pounced on Jane and gave him a passionate kiss
