Author's Notes: Ok I need to apologize. I took you on a whirlwind right? You want to know what the hell happened. Did Lisbon do it? No she couldn't have, another woman right? So many questions you've been waiting for the second chapter for answers right? LOL guess what this chapter is just going to lead to more questions. Why? It's a rewind story, some will take place in the present and some in the past. Here's chapter 2 and HAPPY 4th!
Dreamsicle Cravings
Past
Teresa Lisbon slowly pulled herself from her car as they approached the crime scene. She did everything in her power not to look at her husband and scowl. That was what he said she did the most now scowl. She didn't, it was just he was him, and he made her want to frown but then she realized that he was him so it turned into a grimace and that appeared to be a frown. See he didn't get her logic, but she knew what she was doing.
They had went to the doctor earlier that day, and they told her that she was four months in. That meant is about six months she was going to have a baby. She had no idea what she was going to do with a baby, let alone a little Jane. She would have to cross that bridge when she got to it. It was summertime and she was enjoying her new favorite drink before they reached the dead body.
Patrick Jane couldn't stop smiling. He tried he really did, but ever since that day outside that little shack when Teresa Lisbon became a Jane well he couldn't stop smiling. She was beautiful, he always thought she was beautiful, but now that she was going to have his baby, well he had never seen her this way. It was adorable. They hadn't told Cho yet, she said that she would tell him soon though.
It was weird now. Cho was in charge. Now the team also had Wylie and the return of Team Rigsby. The new member though, Abigail. He couldn't figure her out. She was a puzzle wrapped in riddle wrapped in an enigma. He didn't know her story but it was funny trying to figure it out. He looked to the left and saw his lovely bride sipping her cool drink. How could she drink those things? His thoughts were interrupted by his cell ringing.
"Hello." He answered.
"It came in. Do you know when you're going to be back down here?" the caller asked.
"Don't know Doc, we just got a case. We're at a scene. Can you install them on your own?"
"I don't know. I could call Sarah, she could come down and-"
"No! I told you I don't want Sarah anywhere near the cabin. Have you told her where it is?" he shot back.
"No, she doesn't even know it's you've I've been helping. I really appreciate this Paddy. I just want the two of you to get along." He sighed.
"Well Doc, you know there's a better chance of hell freezing over before that happens."
"Yea. Don't worry I can get them installed without you."
"How are you going to manage that?" he asked thinking of the little old man installing the tiles alone.
"I'll think of something." He told him hanging up.
They approached the scene and was shocked at what they found. They found a ton of cops, but there was no body. There was a distraught woman staring at a computer screen.
"What do we got boss?" Lisbon asked as she smirked at Cho.
"This is Amelia James. Her daughter Becky, just became the ninth victim in the "Skype Murders".
"Skype Murders?" Jane asked.
"Yes over the last three months nine woman have been murdered. No one knows where the next killing is going to happen, the only thing that they have in common is the witness to the crime." He added.
"A skype call. He makes sure that someone is there to see her getting murdered." Jane asked kneeling in front of the woman who was obviously in shock.
"Yes Mrs. James sat down to have her weekly skype call with her daughter only to start the call and witness her daughter being brutally raped and then butchered right before her eyes." Agent Brown added.
"Thanks for that Abby I'm sure that Mrs. James wanted to be reminded of the ordeal that she just went through." Jane added giving the young agent a stern look.
"Come with me Mrs. James, we can get you some tea and talk and you can tell me what you saw." He told her guiding her into the house.
Teresa Lisbon couldn't help but smirk as her husband helped the distraught woman back inside her house, and the new agent scowled at hi
"Now that's a scowl." She said coming towards Cho.
"Wylie and Rigs have a bet going on about how long it will be before he makes her head go completely around. I put my money on about two more weeks so could you tell him to hold out."
"Like he listens to me."
"Sure he does, and besides I think the fact that the two of you are working on an addition that maybe you can keep him occupied with that. What is that your third today?" he smirked.
"Damn it! How do you always know these things, how do you know these things?" she asked,
"It was your wedding you were so emotional, too emotional. Also I have noticed the growth of some things." He glanced towards her breast.
Lisbon turned beet red. She couldn't believe that her boss would say such a thing! Then again it was Kimball and he was one of her closes friends. She quickly threw down Dreamsicle shake and scowled. Damn those Dreamsicle cravings she'd been having.
"Damn I've been trying not to give in to these cravings. There just so good, I mean orange sherbet and vanilla. Oh god!" she squealed. "I'll keep him occupied, split your winnings."
"Of course." He smiled.
It was rare that she saw a smile come to Cho's face. When you see it, it's something you really have to bask in. The moment was broken by a loud bang….
NOW
"Jane!" Lisbon shouted awake.
Before she had time for her eyes to focus she was engulfed in curls. They bounced in her face and she felt the warmth of the man she loved. It had all been a dream. There was no fire, and she didn't pick up that gun and she didn't….
"It was just a dream sweetheart." Came the soothing voice of….not Jane.
"Sarah, when did you get here?" she asked.
"Cho called me of course you know I'd come. Doc wanted to be here, but you know…."
"It's fine, but did you hear anything about Patrick, Cho told me what he told that nurse, she was giving me weird looks all night. Everything had to be explained, and they wanted me to stay here, they wanted to monitor the babies."
"That's right. You get back in that bad missy. It's my job until Paddy opens his eyes to keep you safe. I've just gotten back in his life, do you know what he would do to me if I let something happen to you." She asked coaxing her back into bed.
"I just don't know how they expect me to lie here while he fights for his life. If I can't be with him I need to find her. I need to find her and kill her!"
"Of course you do." Sarah told her as she began to rub her head. She needed to get some rest. She had been through so much.
"Are you trying to hypnotize me? If you are that can't happen, I told Jane a long time ago that doesn't work on me."
"Honey, I taught that kid everything he knows. Just relax. The doctor is going to find you just as soon as he's stable and he will want to know that his wife and babies are doing just fine. Just close your eyes and get some rest. Think of holding those babies in your arms. You and Patrick. Just close your eyes…..
Teresa really hated Sarah. This wasn't the first time she pulled this kind of thing on her. She had told her something before the fire. What was it? What it about Sarah? She knew it was important but she was just so sleepy.
Teresa Jane was just too easy. She kept telling her over and over again that she couldn't be put under, and she was put under all the time. She just needed her to sleep a little while longer. She had a certain "fake psychic" to pay a visit too.
End Notes: LOL there you have it chapter 2. So what are your thoughts? Have you figured it out yet? Do you like the jump back jump forward concept I got going here? Should I keep it? Do you want to know more about the Skype Murders? Let me know, and I hope you had a happy 4th.
