A/N why are teenage girls so annoying? My entire friend group has split in 2, leaving me and 3 of my other mates in the middle. The really stupid thing is that they are fighting over a stupid guy who has an ego the size of Jupiter. Me and the sane mates just sat in a group singing really loudly to glee ;) hehe. Well hopefully it will all blow over soon, I think real TV drama will do, it's actually proper and not stupid! Anyways, read and review...
Jane lay on is couch, wondering if all the clocks in the world had stopped, he was looking forward to the shopping trip with Grace. Grace sat at her desk, thinking that every 5 seconds took about 1 to pass, it wasn't that she didn't like shopping, it was just that she was with Jane, and that would always be interesting. Soon after Lisbon came in, and saw that there was nothing to do, and let them all go.
'Ok, there is no point in you just sitting here, go home, and don't forget Friday' she said
'Yes boss' Grace groaned, now she had to go with Jane
She quickly emailed Rigsby saying she couldn't meet up with him as she had errands to run, which was half true.
'Ready to go?' Jane asked
'Ready for the torture that is about to come' she muttered under her breath, but like usual, Jane's impeccable hearing picked it up
'And why is this torture? I thought girls liked shopping' he asked innocently
'I do, I have this feeling that you are going to embarrass me'
'And why would I do that?' he shot at her
'Why wouldn't you do that?' she shot back
'Tell you what, I will be on my best behaviour, we can get coffee and a chocolate croissant, just like you would usually' he offered
'Ok, but you promise? And how do you know I like chocolate croissants?'
He just tapped his nose and walked off to his car, to which Grace freaked
'Um, Jane, I actually want to go to the ball' she started
'You are just like Lisbon, it's safe, promise' he said
'It's not the car, I love the car, it's you I'm worried about'
'Once again, like Lisbon, come on, I will drive no more than the speed limit, wont weave between traffic, and the seat belts are very good'
'Fine, but if I die in this car, I am going to haunt you'
'Of course'
Grace climbed into the car and held on for dear life, and somehow survived the trip to the mall, much to her surprise, Jane kept his word and got her croissants and coffee, and although she tried to make it last as long as she could, it was soon over, and Patrick had dragged her off to the nearest clothing store.
'So, what is it exactly that we are looking for?' she asked
'Well, we need to stick with the mask theme, I was thinking fox, so we go for red, in size 8, am I right?'
'Yes, and I already have a red dress' she said
'Not ball dress'
'So?'
'So, you need another one'
'I can't afford another one, besides, what's the point in getting something you already have?'
'So you have two of them, what if one is in the wash?'
'I don't usually wear formal dresses two days in a row, as I don't attend formal things 2 days in a row' she pointed out
'Yes, but your other red dress isn't really ball style'
'Ok then, come on, can we just find it and get out of here?' she asked
'Yes, of course' he said leading her off towards the dresses
Grace sighed, she just wanted to find the dress and get out of there as soon as possible, Jane wasn't easy to work with. She stood there watching Jane standing in front of the clothes, just staring
'Are you trying to get a psychic fix on them?' she teased
'No, that is silly, I am thinking like Rigsby'
'And how do you do that?'
'I am male, it isn't that hard'
'Ok' she said awkwardly
He stood there for a while more then picked out a long red slinky dress.
'Go try this on'
'Ok' she said taking the dress and going into the changing room
The dress was red like they had decided and was cut low at the back and was a halter neck, it went down to her ankles and flowed out. It clung to her, and she knew Rigsby would love it, but she wasn't so sure.
'You ready?' he asked
'Yes, no, I'm not coming out' she said
'Come on, please?'
'No'
'I just need to see how it looks'
'Fine, but no staring' she said as she opened the door
He smiled and nodded his head
'Yea, that's the one'
'You sure?'
'Of course'
'Good, because I'm not trying on millions of dresses, I hate that' she said as she closed the door and took off the dress and looked at the price tag and gasped, it was $250, way more than she could afford. She carefully put it back on its hanger and tried to explain to Jane that it cost way too much. She took a deep breath and walked out.
'Grace, I know how much it costs, trust me, it's ok' Jane said
'Jane, even I wouldn't spend this much' she started
'Do you remember when we went to Vegas and I won all that money?'
'Yea, why?'
'I got those necklace and earring combo for you and Lisbon, but you decided you didn't want them , that was fine, I didn't care, I gave it to a worthy cause, well this time you don't get a choice, you are getting that dress and that is final, you hear me?'
'Yes sir' she said
'Good, now, please understand that Rigsby will have trouble keeping his hands off you, so be aware' he said as he paid for it and walked back out to the car.
'Jane?' she asked as he drove her back to CBI to get her car
'Yes?'
'What are you going as?'
'That is a secret'
'So you know?'
'Yes, of course, I also know what Lisbon, Cho and Rigsby are going as'
'Ohh, what?' she asked excitedly
He tapped his nose
'That's a secret too'
'I hate it when you do that nose tap, it makes me want to scream' she said
'Aw, well that's not good'
'No, it's not' she said turning around and grabbing the bag with the dress in it
'See you Monday' he said
'You too' she replied as she walked over to her car, deciding that the shopping trip wasn't as bad as she thought it could have been.
A/N ok, if you want a mention, (and I won't delete the email this time) try to come up with an idea that Lisbon, Cho, Rigsby and Jane can go as, I can't think of anything =S
