OH MY WORD! Thanks for all the reviews! I checked my e-mail and was like WHOA REVIEWS! Lots of em! Chapter TEH (that's supposed to be a reference to Seinfeld, but it didn't work out so well in typing)....Chapter TWO! Thanks for making me smile :) Sorry for making you wait so long for this. I keep trying to finish it, but I keep getting pulled away from the computer!

"JANE!" How dare he walk out after kissing me! THAT...that...uh....MORONIC JERK! Yeah! "PATRICK JANE! Get back in my office right now!"
Jane was halfway out the door of our department. I popped my head out the door and yelled again. "Jane! Get over here right now." I was halfway out of my office, halfway in. Jane was looking between me and the exit. How dare he....I'm gonna-
"Alright. I'm coming, I'm coming..." Jane stood in front of me. Although I'd never admit it to anyone, I thought he smelled pretty good today...but that's a secret. I don't smell people if that's what it sounds like. His aroma just happened to flow into my nose...and he stood right in front of me! What's a girl to do?
"We're going to talk. In my office." I tried to whisper, but it didn't work out so well. Jane just smiled. What's he smiling about?
"I'm sure we can talk it out right here. Whatever you can say to me, you can say to the whole team." Jane's smile grew. What a moron...he really thinks he can-"Right team?"
Rigsby, Van Pelt, and...well Cho kind of just grunted. Rigsby and Van Pelt nodded in agreement. Jane planned this out I just know it.
"Fine. Why'd you kiss me and run away? You a coward? Didn't wanna face the Lisbon-Wrath?" Jane seemed suddenly uncomfortable. Ha ha. Don't think you can back down now, Jane...
"Let's go in your office..." Jane tried to lightly push me in, but to no avail. I'm much stronger than that. I'm a CBI agent, what do you expect?
"No, you're right we should talk out here. Anything we say, the whole team should hear. Right guys?"
Rigsby and Van Pelt nodded wide eyed. Cho did that uninterested grunt again. I took it as a yes. "See? We're all friends here. Let's talk it out."
Jane shifted uncomfortably in his standing position. "Okay." He suddenly seemed more confident and he stood up straight. This couldn't be good. This means he had some sort of plan... "Did you enjoy my kiss?"
Well, I wasn't expecting that. I felt my face heat up. "No."
"Liar."
"I'm not lying. It was too quick..."
"Ahh, so you wish it lasted longer?" Dang it, why did I have to go and say that?! Way to go, Teresa...
"No, I wish it hadn't happened at all!"
"Liar. Stop lying, Lisbon. It's bad for the soul." Jane stepped closer to me. I didn't back down. Let him try, but I will not fall.
"I'm not lying."
"I see it in your eyes. The eyes are the window to the soul..."
"Not my soul."
"There are no exceptions, Lisbon. That's not how it works." By now, we were almost touching toes and he towered over me. Curse my shortness...
"How come you make exceptions to laws and regulations then?"
"Because I can."
"Well if you can, I can." I countered. Take that, blondie!
"That's not how it works!"
"I'll make it work like that!"
"You wish you could make it work like that!" I realized that we were being loud, but I wasn't about to stop. If I quit now, he wins. And we just cannot have that.
"I do make it work like that!"
"Prove it!"
"Make me!"
And, just like in all those cliche Lifetime movies, Jane leaned in and kissed me. Long. And. Perfect.
Oh no he didn't.
