I know it's not the 12th yet, but I don't think I can do any more constructive revision today if I tried.
Lisbon had never really been good with dealing with her or other people's emotions and so had no idea how to get herself out of this situation. She knew how well Jane could read her and she really didn't want him to know that she liked him 'that' way.
Fortunately, at that moment Mattie started to cry and Lisbon shot out of the room like a bolt of lightning to tend to her. Jane stayed on the sofa trying to analyse what had just happened when he heard a lullaby coming from the room he'd made into the nursery. He recognised the tune immediately - it was the song that his wife used to sing to their daughter when she woke up in the night. Before he knew what he was doing, he found himself walking towards the singing and joining in when he got to the door, earning him a very surprised look from Lisbon.
By this time, Mattie had gone back to sleep and Lisbon had put her back into the cot. Jane came over to her, and to her surprise started to dance as he continued singing (Lisbon had become speechless as soon as he started singing). Before she knew it, they were dancing into his bedroom when he stopped singing.
"Why did you stop?"
"I ran out of lyrics," Jane responded with his usual cocky grin
"No you didn't, there's two more verses."
"Yes I did. How did you know that song anyway?"
"Stop changing the subject."
"You didn't answer the question." But then Jane noticed Lisbon was starting to well up.
"Hey, come here," he said, enveloping her in a hug, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to upset you."
"No, it's okay. It was the song my mum used to sing to me when I woke up in the night."
"It's a very good song, sung by a very good singer."
"Don't push it Jane."
"What? Has nobody told you how good a singer you are before?"
Lisbon just shook her head.
"Well that must change my dear; from now on I shall tell you whenever you do something amazing."
"There's really no need."
"But there is because you deserve it."
Just then, Lisbon realised she'd made a mistake. She was on Jane's bed with her mask down and it was late. He turned to her and realised too. In that moment he knew exactly how she felt about him and being Jane he wasn't one to wait to act. Therefore, he captured her lips in the sweetest kiss she'd had in a long time, full of love but at the same time cautious just in case he was wrong. Lisbon responded by deepening the kiss, showing him that as always he was right.
However, Jane knew Teresa wasn't the type to rush into a relationship and didn't want to force her so before things became too heated, he pulled away.
"I think that's enough for one night." He said half jokingly before he picked her up, carried her to her room and sang the same song they'd sung earlier to her until she too fell asleep.
I know this a little AU, but hey it's my fanfic. Please review and feel free to suggest any ideas if you want.
