Okay, this chapter contains a lot of trivia which I just had to mention ;)

Chapter 25

'I should have never trusted her. She has been too long together with her mother' Stiles said and stared outside of the window. They were in Mexico, outside of the capital in a hotel, under false names and it was pretty hot. The air conditioner was broken and it was an arid, dry day with about thirty degrees centigrade (I know that I might confuse some people using centigrade or meters and not Fahrenheit or miles^^).

'It's not your fault, Bret. She has decided to help Jane because she fell in love with him. But he has Lisbon and will never decide for her. You couldn't know this.'

'I should have observed her more.'

'You already did more than a usual father would do' Alex said and fondled his white hair. He smiled and turned back to her.

'And now? I can't return to any of my churched without CIA hunting me.'

'We don't know if it has come so far. First, only Lisbon knows. They'll eventually tell Darcy and then perhaps you get one of the most wanted men.'

She laughed imagining that. He touched her cheek and climbed above of her. Starting kissing, first romantically, then faster, he smiled at her and his ocean blue eyes were showing his evilness.

It was one month later when Sabrina and Jane arrived at the hotel where Alex and Stiles have been before. They found out that they had checked in as Tolian DeLarge ('Tolian Soran' from Star Trek and 'Alex DeLarge' from A Clockwork Orange) and his daughter Theresa DeLarge. No other flights or hotels were booked on these names and they were at the beginning again.

'I have already tried so often to give up' Jane said when they were dining in a restaurant in downtown of Mexico city.

'My dad wanted to give up the hunt, he wanted to retire, Jane. It won't take long and he'll do so.'

'But Alex won't rest.'

'She wants to kill you but dad doesn't. I guess we should be more concerned about her.'

'We will return to Sacramento, Sabrina. It's the best. You shouldn't be involved in this anymore. You're a seventeen year old girl and you have gone through enough things in your life. I will catch your father, I promise' he said and touched her hand.

She looked into his beautiful eyes and didn't know what to say or to do. She just wanted this to end. 'Jane, I want to apologize for…what I have done. I have played with you, fooled you around and you have every possible reason to be angry with me.'

'No, Sabrina. Right now, you tried to help. It's not your fault. It was your dad who turned you around.'

'I have done so many terrible things' she moaned. She could never forgive them herself. Sabrina looked up at Jane's beautiful face. He has become thinner in the last few weeks, more stress, less eating.

'We should return as soon as possible' she whispered and he nodded. They needed to go back. He needed Lisbon and what she needed, he couldn't think of. Perhaps love, someone who truly liked her, something which she has never had before.

She didn't seem any psychopathic anymore, maybe it just has been the behavior while she had served her father, that cruel bastard. And he has really thought, Bret Stiles couldn't harm a fly?

'Oh Jane!' she cried and hugged him deeply even before he has left the elevator. They haven't seen for over a month now and haven't spoken for nearly five days.

He responded the hug and kissed her on her lips. 'I'm so sorry that I'd left you' he apologized but she already forgot that they haven't seen for so long. They went into Lisbon's office and sat down to talk. He told her about everywhere they've been and what they've gone through.

'Teresa, I never want to leave you again' he finally admitted and took her hand. Suddenly, he got off the couch and fell on his knees in front of her. He took a small, black box from his trousers pocket and showed it her.

He opened it and Lisbon's mouth fell open when she suddenly recognized a blinking and shiny golden ring sparkling in the sun which was coming in through the window.

'Special Agent Teresa Lisbon, would you like to marry me?' he asked with the most serious face he could ever make.

She held her hands in front of her open mouth and couldn't do anything else than thinking 'Oh my god!'

So she said: 'Oh my god, Jane! Yes, of course I want!' she screamed in surprise and smilingly he took out the ring of the box and easily put it on her finger.

'Oh, Jane' she said and hugged him deeply, they both stood up and hugged each other, not saying a word, just standing there, for a while, until both Van Pelt and Cho have gathered in front of the office and were staring at them. Then, the loving couple noticed and loosened their hug. The two agents came in, wondering what this could mean.

'Teresa and I are going to marry' Jane explained and they smiled at the Korean and th red-haired agent.

'Congratulations!' they both said in one mouth and were as perplex as Lisbon has been in the situation.

It took three months to plan all the preparations for the wedding and Lisbon has even succeeded in persuading Van Pelt playing a bridesmaid.

'It drives me mad that I'm not allowed to see her' Jane said sitting together with Cho in the attic. He tried to make his suit looking perfect while Grace was trying to do the same with Lisbon and her dress in her office.

'You look perfect' she said and Lisbon stared at herself in the mirror.

She could barely recognize herself. 'I don't know…'

'No, you're looking really, really good. Don't worry, everything is going to be well' Van Pelt tried to calm her down.

Lisbon suddenly laughed.

'What?'

'Oh, when I have tried to wear the bridesmaid dress on your planned wedding, Jane told me that I'd look like an angry princess who somebody has just stolen her crown' Lisbon remembered the good times of their lives.

Van Pelt laughed, too and had to admit, that this was a very fitting description of Lisbon's look right away. Her dress was long and wide and white and beautiful, very tight on her upper half, remembering to a corset, but it fitted perfectly.

'Ah' Lisbon made when trying to push her breasts a bit up.

'You'll wear a padding for this on your wedding' Van Pelt said and saw her boss' uncertain look.

'And then he wonders why I have nothing here' she answered fully touching her boobs.

'But we have to do something with your hair' the agent said and Lisbon had to admit that her hair cut has never been the best. 'What about the same haircut Sabrina has?'

'No' she shook her head. She had always guessed that Jane has in some way felt attracted to the little girl and didn't want to look even more similar than already. Lisbon and Sabrina got around quite well, her semester has started again and she helped Van Pelt and Cho with decorating and organizing everything for the wedding.

Lisbon was glad she helped out and was also glad, that her three brothers came to the celebration as well, Tommy with his niece Annie, James and her third brother who especially came from the east coast.

Jane hasn't any family or friends he wanted to invite, he hasn't even called his father and his relation to the brother of his deceased wife wasn't the greatest. Although they were just few, a few friends, a few colleagues, among them Mashburn, Minelli, Hightower and her children and a lot of other very known names.

Of course, Bret and Alex were watching every movement inside CBI HQ or Lisbon's house via video surveillance. 'I think we should plane a nice surprising for their wedding' Stiles sat and pushed his girlfriend closer to him.

She nodded, looking at the computer. They were in their hotel room, booked under the names Carolina Bashir (another referring which you understand when you know Star Trek: Dr. Bashir is played by Alexander Siddig and his uncle is the actor who plays Bret Stiles^^) and her grandfather Julian (yes, I love crossover referring, this time the character Julian Hodge from the TV series MONK), in Malibu, West coast, not far away from Sacramento.

'Don't you think it's too risky to contact your inner circle?' she asked and kissed him on his cheek.

'No risk, no fun' he answered and pushed her back on the bed and started opening her black blouse.

Okay, may take a while until I upload next (okay, I admit I always say that) but I have to write two more exams before the end of the term: German (the subject I hate most and know less) and English (my second-favorite language next to Spanish although I don't speak it very well). After having written these exams, I can concentrate again on the ending of this story But please do not complain in case it ends with the evil guys winning. I mostly do that because in TV, the villains never win...although they most time look better than the heroes...^^
