Nothing compared to the heavy weight on his chest that had suffocated his heart. He knew his heart had felt the very similar pain before, and he could not cause that kind of grief to himself again. That is, if he could prevent it.

Chapter 2

Lisbon stared at Jane, the shock was evident on her face.

He could tell he struck a nerve from within her, but he was hoping it was the right one. An angry Lisbon was never much fun to reason with. He seen Fischer sneak out the back door, and he was very grateful for that.

"What'd you say?"

The words were spoken so quietly that he had barely noticed them.

"I said don't go Lisbon, I cannot be without you." He looked straight into her eyes hoping for any indication on what was in her mind.

"Why do you care now? You haven't cared before?" she said looking down to the ground.

"I've always cared. I just didn't want to show it, but if showing it means you, then I'll show it everyday if that's what you need. I cannot be without you."

"Jane… I cannot keep putting my life on hold for you. You make promises you have a hard time keeping. I can't do that anymore. I have had twelve years too many."

It was the most confident he had seen her in a while.

She got up and headed for the door.

"I just keep fooling myself. You are not going to change. And if I give up another chance to be happy, for you. Honestly, what would it change?" She waited for an answer. When he failed to respond in a timely fashion, she turned back around and headed for the door.

"Give me a week" he whispered.

"What is a week going to do Jane?" She rested her head against the door.

"I cannot tell you that, but I hope that it will see how much I do care about you."

She laughs.

"I'm serious. Delay your plane ticket one week. Tell Pike you have a few loose ends to tie up here in Austin, and then you will be there. You furniture is already in storage, and I will pay for a week for you at the Four Seasons. Just don't go Lisbon. Give me a week." He stood there waiting for her reply.

"I will talk to you later Jane"

She walked out. His heart shattered.
