A/N: Hey everyone! This series of oneshots is the result of writer's block. I have so many Jisbon-based ideas bouncing around in my mind that I can't focus on anything else. My hope is that I get to 100 oneshots but I have no idea if it will actually happen or not. Some of these will be based on songs, not songfics, just loosely based on the song. I'm new at writing The Mentalist and I hope their not to out of character or anything. Please review, I love criticism and hearing what you think! Thanks so much! :)

Disclaimer: This applies for the entire fic. I don't own the Mentalist, never have and never will!

This first oneshot is set a little in the future. December 31st, to be exact. :D

Knock. Knock.

Lisbon glanced at the door, well, glared really. She was comfortable on her couch with a bowl of chocolate ice cream in her lap. She was in her pajamas for God's sake. Who would come to her apartment at, she glanced at the clock, ten minutes until midnight?

Of course, she already knew.

Sighing, Lisbon put down her ice cream and walked to her door, opening it to reveal a grinning Patrick Jane.

"What, Jane?" She asked. She placed one hand on her hip and tapped her socked foot. She wasn't in the mood for this.

"Pajamas, Lisbon, really?" He cocked an eyebrow. "Is that a bunny?" He squinted, looking closer. Lisbon crossed her arms across her chest, feeling a blush creep onto her cheeks.

"Jane! Stop staring at my pajamas!"

"Sorry." His eyes were sparkling and his smile was huge. Lisbon knew that this was bad. "You're alone I presume?" He sighed dramatically and shook his head. "Lisbon, Lisbon. You really must stop being so predictable."

She scowled, and was taken off guard when he breezed past her into her apartment. She swiveled around, glaring at the consultant.

"What the hell do you think you're doing!?"

"Celebrating New Year's Eve with you." He grinned and held up a bottle of champagne that Lisbon hadn't noticed earlier. He glanced at it. "I think this beats chocolate ice cream. Am I right?"

Lisbon sighed. She shut her door and walked over to her couch, falling down onto it and giving her attention to the TV. Jane grinned, knowing that he had won. He gravitated towards her kitchen, and Lisbon watched from the corner of her eye. He reappeared with two wine glasses.

Lisbon would never admit it, but she was actually glad that Jane had come. Talking to him definitely beat inhaling a tub of chocolate ice cream. But then again, this was Jane. Who knew what kind of observations he was making about her? God, if the team ever found out that her favorite pair of pajamas had bunnies on them…

"Ready to watch the big sparkly ball drop?" Jane asked, making himself comfortable on the couch next to her.

"Yeah, I just can't wait." She said, lacing her tone with sarcasm. She rolled her eyes. "It's just New Year's, Jane. It's not a big deal."

"Au contraire, my dear Teresa!" His eyes sparkled and Lisbon shivered, enjoying the way her name sounded when he said it. "New Year's is very important. It brings us into a new year. Say goodbye to 2009, and welcome in 2010! A new year brings exciting things."

She shrugged. "If you say so."

Both of them turned their eyes to the television, watching as the cameras showed the big ball that would soon be dropping as they welcomed in 2010.

"Three minutes." Jane stated. Lisbon looked at him and couldn't help but smile. His eyes were glittering and a huge smile was plastered across his face. He looked so excited. It was adorable.

"You act like you've never seen that thing drop before." She motioned to the TV.

"I'm just happy that I get to bring in the new year with a great friend."

Lisbon blushed and looked away. Damn that man. He was always putting her in uncomfortable positions. But…she loved it.

"One minute!"

Lisbon had to laugh. He was a fully grown man who was acting like a child.

Jane turned his gaze on her. "Are you going to kiss me?"

Lisbon's laughter turned into a strangled cough. "What!?"

"Calm down." He laughed. "It's a New Year's tradition! You have to!"

"There is no way in hell—,"

"Twenty seconds!"

"Jane, I mean it—,"

"C'mon, Lisbon! Count down with me." He grinned. "Fourteen seconds!"

"You're not…you're not actually serious about the kissing, right? You just said that—,"

"Ten!"

"Jane!" Lisbon was flustered now.

"C'mon Teresa!" He elbowed her. "Count!"

"Six." She said dryly.

"Five!"

"Four."

"Three!"

"Two."

"ONE!"

The shining ball dropped. Confetti flew all over the place in Times Square as the consultant and the agent watched. Jane turned to Lisbon with a goofy grin on his face.

"Happy New Years, Lisbon."

He leaned in swiftly and kissed her. Lisbon stiffened. She hadn't thought that he was serious. As his hand found her chin and tilted it up, Lisbon felt herself kissing back. It was serene, despite the screaming and cheering coming from the TV. It was the most perfect of kisses, and he pulled away much too soon.

Jane busied himself with pouring champagne into glasses for them, and Lisbon was glad. It gave her a chance to calm her pounding heart and get a hold of her crazy thoughts. Jane handed her a glass and smiled.

"Cheers."

"Cheers." She mumbled, still somewhat dazed. They each took a drink.

Jane stayed for another hour, poking fun at Lisbon and enjoying everything that he did to make her blush. They laughed and talked about most everything and the conversation was easy and relaxed. It was a little after one when Jane finally stretched and stood up.

"I should get going. This was fun." He smiled.

Lisbon smiled back and followed him to the door. "Yeah, it actually was. Thanks, Jane. For being a friend instead of an ass." Jane chuckled and Lisbon's smile brightened.

"See you at work." He pulled open the door, and then turned back to her. "Oh, and Lisbon?"

"What?"

Jane leaned in towards her. He was so close that Lisbon thought that he was going to kiss her again. Her heart began to pound. She could smell his breath on her face.

"You look good in bunny pajamas." He kissed her quickly on the cheek and disappeared.

Lisbon stood in a daze for a second, before stomping her foot and yelling, "JANE!"
