Sorry it's been awhile since I worked on this story. First my computer got sick and was at the hospital for ten days….then I get it back and my husband gets to go for a visit to the hospital…but here I am back. Back to Jane's problems.

MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM

Jane moves on the special bed, he opens his eyes and looks around the room. There is only a soft light on over his head, and he notices that nobody is sitting in the chair next to the bed. He remembers some of the team being there when every he woke up, he must be getting better now that there isn't someone sitting next to the bed. He raises his hand and sees the IV is still in his hand, he makes a face at it. He looks upset as he moves his left hand up closer to his face. He looks around and finds the button to call for a nurse…he keeps pushing on the button. A nurse comes rushing into the room; she rushes to the side of the bed. Jane reaches out and grabs her hand, holding it tightly.

"Where is it? What have you done with it?" He is yelling at her. He manages to sit up almost pulling her on the bed.

"Mr. Jane, please calm down, you're not supposed to be moving around. Your hurting my wrist." She pulls her arm away from him and takes a step back.

"I want it back." Jane has stopped yelling, and he looks in a lot of pain. The door opens and Lisbon comes running into the room. She rushes over to the bed and tries to take in what is happening.

"Jane, calm down, everything is okay." She puts her hand on his shoulder and tries to hold him down.

"Mr. Jane wants to know where something is, I'm not sure what it is, but he needs to calm down, his blood pressure is getting higher." The nurse looks up at the heart monitor.

"Patrick, please tell me what it is that you want. I'll do my best to find it."

He seems to notice for the first time that she is there, he grabs for her hand. "Tell me where it is Lisbon, please find it." She notices that his eyes are filling with tears. She takes his hands in hers.

"What is it that you want?" That is when she notices his ring is not on his finger. "It's your ring…they probably have it with your wallet and your other stuff that you had with you when you arrived here. Isn't that right nurse?

"Yes, when you go into surgery they remove any items you have on you. I'll go and look for your items right now, if you promise to calm down."

Jane closes his eyes and nods his head yes. The nurse rushes out of the room.

"You'll have your ring back in no time." She takes his hand and holds it. Jane opens his eyes and looks over at Lisbon, surprised that she is there.

"You're here…I'm not dreaming right?

"She smiles at him. "I was called to help find you three weeks ago. I was so worried about you."

Jane seems to be thinking about something, he looks around the room again. "Is Pike with you?"

"No, he is in Washington." She can see the wheels in his brain moving. "I broke up with him Jane, you were too important to me. I had to come and help to find you."

"You're not going back to him?"

"No, I found out that I didn't really love him, there was someone more important to me that I love and have loved for some time." She kisses the hand she is holding.

"Who is that lucky person?" Jane says as the nurse comes in, with the doctor. She goes over and injects something in his IV fluids.

"Patrick, I heard you were upset, something about your ring? When you were brought in I went over with the emergence nurse that was on your case, and she said that you didn't have a ring on when you were brought here. Your wallet was in your jacket, no ring but your wallet was there. I'm having the surgery floor searched for it. It was a gold band I've been told."

"Yes….they have it." He looks very teary and upset about the loss of the wedding ring he always wore since the day it was put on his finger by his new wife.

"Jane who is they, the one's that had you?"

The medication they gave him is starting to work and he is trying to stay awake. "George" he says in a whisper and closes his eyes again to sleep without dreams.

Lisbon is standing by the bed watching Jane pick at the food that is on a bedside table. In the last half hour he has taken one bite.

"Jane, you need to eat something." He looks up at her, than at the food and makes a face.

"When is the team coming in?" He says pushing the table away. Lisbon is getting ready to say more, when the door opens and Abbott, Cho and Fischer comes into the room. They stand around the bed looking at Jane.

"Glad you're looking better Jane….now what can you tell me about the person who did this to you?" Cho takes out his note book from his book prepared to write down Jane's statement.

"His name is George Keller, he owns a farm, and I'm not sure what the farm was."

"I do, we went to the farm when we were checking around the area where your Air Stream was found. The search of the farm was clean; we didn't see any sign of you."

"I remember that night…" He looks upset. "I was up in the attic, a gag in my mouth. He chained me up so I couldn't move. I heard you Cho."

Cho looks angry when he realizes how close he was to finding Jane.

"Why did he want you?" says

"When I was still doing my show, his wife Ellen came to me, she wanted a reading. One reading turn in to a few readings, she paid me over ten thousand dollars." Lisbon looks around; she knows how hard it is for Jane to tell the group what he did in his past. "He remembered my name, and when I was at a gas station I guess someone told him that I was there. He wanted me to work off the debt working on his farm…the way he looked at me I know he wasn't going to happy with just that. He wanted me dead, and there were a few times when he beat me that I thought I would die."

"How did you get away and back here?"

"Ellen helped me…she was not involved with what he did, she is scared of him. She got me on a crop duster with a friend of hers. He flew me away; I don't remember much of it. We landed and he got me on a bus to here."

"We are going after him Jane; he will pay for what you went through." Abbott says.

"Maybe I paid him back." Jane says closing his eyes. "All those people I hurt, how do I pay them back?"

A young nurse comes into the hospital; she checks that her ID is hanging around her neck, that her uniform is crisp and clean. She knew what her job was, and she planned on doing it correctly. She promised her father that she would, and she never broke a promise to her father.
