Note: This is my first story in a while so I may be a little rusty. Stick with me though :]
I may not be able to update that often, but I will try as often as I can.
These stories are going to be short, anywhere between one and four chapters.
Disclaimer: No I don't own the mentalist… blah blah blah… If I did, for one I would be on the show [I lovee acting3], and two Jane and Lisbon would get together soon.
Enough babbling on my part; enjoy!!!

Chapter 1: You have got to be kidding me!
- - - - - - - - - - - - -
Teresa Lisbon was sitting in her office, filling out yet another report on how Jane had misbehaved in some way or another. Sometimes she felt like his babysitter, she needed to get him a playpen to keep him in one place and occupied for a bit. Hopefully then he would stay off her back.. She mentally slapped herself when she realized that, once again, she was letting her mind wander to her irritating consultant. It was one of those days; cloudy, stormy, lifeless, and just downright boring. And she couldn't help but let her mind wander a bit.
She jumped when a flash of lightning flitted across the sky and a crash of thunder shook her out of her dazed state. She needed to get up, maybe stretch her legs. Get some coffee. Yes, coffee sounded good. She stood up and walked out of her office. Everyone was in there usual positions; Cho was reading a book, Van Pelt was doing paperwork, and Rigsby was trying to hide the fact that he had been staring at Van Pelt for about an hour. And then there was Jane, lying on 'his' couch and pretending to sleep.
She walked over to the coffee machine and grabbed a cup. She took a quick glance behind her and saw Jane's eyes boring into her back. She quickly turned away, blushing. God, he can't even look at me without making me blush. I definitely need to get a hold of myself. She thought, trying to cover up her blush. She hit the button to fill her cup with coffee. Nothing happened. She hit it again. Still nothing. She grunted with annoyance and turned around just in time to see Jane's amused expression. She gave him a look and turned away, walking towards the elevator. She would go find somewhere else to get coffee, she needed at least two cups a day and was grumpy at the fact she couldn't have a second one.
Just as she walked into the elevator and turned around, Jane slipped in beside her. She hit the ground floor button and turned to look at the grinning Jane.
"Going somewhere?" She huffed.
"I dunno, wherever you are going." He responded, his huge grin still not leaving his face.
Lisbon rolled her eyes and mumbled something incoherent about how she wanted to arrest Jane for being a stalker, but didn't think it would go through the court very well.
Jane chuckled and Lisbon flashed him another annoyed look. He could tell she was cranky, but instead of leaving her alone he thought he would just continue to annoy her to death, as usual.
Suddenly, the elevator jolted to a stop and the small space went black. They could hear in the distance a loud clap of thunder.
"Damnit, you have got to be kidding me." Lisbon said, squinting to see in the darkness. She couldn't believe that the elevators had to stop, especially while she was with Jane. The last person she wanted to be stuck with.
Jane chuckled again. "Well this is going to be interesting." He said, and she could tell he was grinning again.
There was a loud thwack as Lisbon's hand came in contact with Jane's chest.
"Ow!" He said dramatically. "Offense, offense!" He said, backing away from her.
Lisbon just smiled and muttered, "Drama queen."

Authors Note: Well that was just a taste for what is in store. The next chapter will be a continuation of this one. I know it was short, more chapters will probably be longer.
And now, there is this button *points* down at the bottom of the screen. And I think you should click it and see what happens. *nudge nudge, wink wink* The button could attack you, or maybe just let you review my story. Either way, I think you should click it…
