Hello guys! Eh so here is my next chappie of TDH! I know I only finished this chappie this morning so I hope its ok! =)
Thank you so very much to: tigerlily 124, Koezh, The Mentalist Rules, Lisa, Lisbon94, veras333, Lisa and Jane for your awesome reviews!
Lisbon lay down in the far-from comfy hospital bed staring blankly at the ceiling. The bright lights started to burn her eyes so she closed them, feeling the odd tingling sensation of the glue type stitches she was getting done on her forehead. Upon shutting her eyes, the picture that she had been seeing every night she shut her heavy eyelids stared back at her. Every dream she dreamt had him in it alone or with Red John and it was his face she saw, not darkness but his face.
She wasn`t sure either or not to call it obsession or just being worried sick and scared but she knew it was getting to the point where she couldn`t sleep without waking up with beads of sweat forming on her skin.
Her eyes shot wide open s disturbing images flashed before her eyes involving him and Red John and their final showdown and she stared up at the doctor who looked down at her and had stalled his work.
"Agent Lisbon, are you alright?" the male doctor questioned as his female nurse assistant shuffled about with something on a silver tray. The whole place reminded her of a dentist, the equipment, the smell, the latex and the blue scrubs.
"I`m alright, it`s ok just do whatever you have to do" she muttered pouting, her eyes meeting his blue ones and he smiled back at her and turned back toward the nurse in pink scrubs. She sighed as her eyes darted around the place; she was aware Cho was outside on the corridor somewhere. He hated the sight of needle and latex or hospitals for that matter so just stayed out there, sipping on a coffee of some sorts.
She wondered how Jane and grace were; she had no idea where they were maybe Quantico but that was unlikely, he wouldn`t drive all the way there. Maybe he had actually gone after Johnny; maybe tracked him down but they were just suggestions, highly unlikely but possibilities.
"Ok agent Lisbon, we`re going to keep you here for a few more hours just to be safe" he explained and she nodded, thanking them both for their help while waiting for cho to come in. He wandered in after a few seconds and took a seat next to her bed and observed her for a few moments.
"How are you feeling?"
"I`m ok"
"What happened?" he asked in his usual tone, sitting forward as she gulped. She was hardly going to tell him she couldn`t sleep because of Jane.
"I fell" she chuckled softly like it was plain obvious and embarrassing and he gave her his usual deadpan look and her chuckling faded to nothing, only the sound of the beeping machines behind her and all around them.
"I found 5 tablet containers on your counter Teresa. They were all empty"
"Yea they were paracetamol and Caffeine tablets. I`m not taking drugs Cho, they`re prescribed" she explained and he nodded, resting his chin on his entwined fingers.
"It doesn`t take long for it to hit home does it?" Cho said out of the blue as he caught eye contact with her and she frowned. His question puzzled her, yet she had no idea how to respond.
"The fact half of our team is gone, the fact we may never get to see them again. Its strange isn`t it?" he asked and she nodded as her eyes trailed down to her hands. He was right, she hadn`t thought of it that way. Rigsby had quit, then disappeared which meant she had no idea where he was, Grace was also gone, she didn't know where he was, Grace was also gone, she didn't even know where she was either or Jane.
Jane.
He was either hunting Red John down or already there, for their final showdown.
She'd never know unless he returned, she had to admit it but she felt so much better with him as part of her team; she had more than one reason to come into work every morning now. She looked back at Cho and frowned.
"Cho, can I use your cell for a moment?"
"Sure" he replied, rummaging about his jean pockets and then pulled out a Samsung Flip-phone and handed it to her. She looked down at it and pulled back the lid of the cell and began to punch in the digits but stopped.
"Do you have credit in it?"
"I`m on Bill-pay and Free texts" he mumbled, sitting forward while she hit the call button. She hoped she`d gotten his number right as she listened to it ring out and sighed in relief as she heard someone answer, then put it straight on speaker.
"Hi Lisbon"
Well this was way shorter than I thought it was but I hope it was ok, for you guys for the moment. I won`t be updating this till later this week or sometime next week cuz I still haven`t got anything written but 1 paragraph next chap but I want to try and get it way better than this.
Just watched the new promo to Castle, it so funny can`t wait to watch it tomorrow morning! Watching Transformers now good movie! I`m not really sure when I`ll get updating my other stories and I hope you can all wait for maybe a day or less after that awful cliffy hanger and chapter of Over My Head...I`m sorry about that btw=)
I`ll chat to you guys soon and any reviews you give me are always appreciated! Btw, it won`t be too long until the team are reunited! I`ll update whenever I finish off the chap!
