A Broken Agreement

A/N - VERY AU. Jane & Lisbon have an agreement, and Jane believes Lisbon has broken it.

Set after S3's "Red Hot"

VERY BAD LANGUAGE!


He hadn't been himself all day and there didn't seem to be a reason for it. But I knew the reason, I doubted the team could see it, but I could. He was angry.

And he hadn't said a word, and I knew he wouldn't, not until everyone was gone. I packed up my things, ready to leave, the team had all gone home now and only Jane remained, lying on the couch.

He jumped up when he saw me, and smiled, I looked at him confused for a moment and then realised it was Friday, our night, "No Jane, not tonight." I said quietly, I couldn't tonight, not after last night with Mashburn…

Janes face fell and for a second he seemed upset but then his expression changed, to anger.

"So that's how it is now?" He asked, his voice quiet, but dangerous.

"I'm just tired." I sighed, but I knew he'd see the truth, although I was tired, but he knew the reason why.

"Yeah." Jane said bitterly, "Tired from all that 'talking' with Mashburn last night." He practically spat the words out.

"What does it matter to you?" I asked, growing more annoyed with every word that came out of his mouth.

"You broke the agreement." He hissed.

"Its not an agreement Jane!" I said angrily.

"What is it then?" Jane asked, his eyes glaring, "Because its certainly not a relationship."

For a second I was hurt, but it didn't last long, I was too angry to feel pain at that moment, "You're right, it isn't a relationship and that's got nothing to do with me. Its got everything to do with you and your thirst for revenge!"

I was surprised, and shocked, and hurt, physically, when Jane grabbed my arm, pushing me up against the wall, he was close to my face and I'd never seen him look so angry, "My thirst for revenge is important, you knew that when we started this!"

"And 'this' is what? An agreement?" I asked, glaring right back at him, "Something that makes you feel good for the moment, until you find Red John and kill him and end up in jail like a common criminal?"

"I'm not a criminal!" God, he was more messed up than I knew, "And yes, it may be a convenient arrangement, but either way, you broke it." He loosened his grip on my arm but I didn't move from where I was.

"So you're allowed to use me for sex until the time comes when you decide to become a murderer but I'm not allowed to have sex with someone I actually have feelings for?" I hissed, it was a low blow and I saw the hurt flash across his eyes and vanish as it slipped into his façade, like the rest of his personality.

"And you think I have feelings for you?" He asked, although I knew it was rhetorical question, "Like you said, you're convenient and you're easy. But if that's the way you see it, I guess I'll start using Grace instead."

I felt so angry at those words, he'd been using me for weeks and now he said it meant nothing, it was in retaliation to my words of anger, but the difference was he said it like he meant it.

"You do that." I said, stepping back from the wall, "You mess up someone else's life and fuck with their head for once! I'm done with it always being me you mess up."

Jane laughed, a bitter, humourless laugh, "You were messed up before I even started fucking with you." He said harshly.

I turned around and hit him, as hard as I could, not feeling the slightest bit guilty when I saw the red mark on his cheek where my hand had been.

What I didn't expect was for him to grab me and shove me against the wall, hurting me a lot more than I'd hurt him.

"Get your hands off me." I said, my voice low, quiet and dangerous.

"No." He replied in the same tone.

"This is the difference between you and Walter." I said, purposefully using the mans first name, "He actually cares. He's kind and gentle, you're angry in everything you do."

"And when did you ever complain before?" He asked, his eyes emotionless. I didn't expect him to kiss me, in a way he had never kissed me before. Not pressing himself hard and roughly against me, a gentle, slow, sweet kiss.

When he broke away, he didn't look angry anymore, "I can do anything Walter can and I can do it better."

"Can you fall in love me?" I asked, my eyes showing the uncertainty and fear I felt.

As I expected Jane shook his head, and I knew he could see the disapoinment in my eyes.

"It would be impossible for me to fall in love with you, because I already am in love with you."

THE END.
