(A/N) Because I had so many good reviews and so many prompts off people since earlier and my insomnia has hit me full force tonight I thought I would post a few chapters using some of the great prompts people have given me. This one's from Rina.
Balloons
They had been flirting now on and off for years but lately, since Red John had been killed, it had seemed different. At least it had done to Lisbon, there were lingering glances, and he smiled a lot more when she was around. She also thought his face seemed to soften when he looked at her and his pupils seemed to contract. She thought she was imagining it. It was Jane after all, master manipulator. Maybe it was part of prank he was setting up and he needed to sweeten her up before hand to try and minimise the amount of effort he had to put in when the damage had been done.
She walked into CBI office that morning a little earlier than normal, she had been unable to sleep because she was over analysing the look he gave her yesterday when they said goodbye. He had looked after her, watched her go into the elevator (in England we say lift) She had got the feeling he had checked out her behind but hadn't wanted to draw attention to that in case she was wrong. Walking through the bullpen and towards her office she thinks about how he had started to wear more casual clothes to work, no more vests, just pants (trousers) and a dress shirt, she though he looked just as hot in either, or neither. No bad Lisbon! She had to put a stop to these thoughts they were getting her nowhere.
She gets out her keys to open her office door, Thank god for Rigsby installing it a couple of months ago, it had been a while since she had open her office to meet with a mass of cupcakes, hats, pizzas, pony's, and once he had brought 100s of alarm clocks and programmed them all to go off one after the other so it had taken her over an hour to restore quiet in her office. Today however when she opened the door she found that lock or no lock he had again broken into her inner sanctum to leave balloons. Yep balloons loads of them. All saying different messages, 'Lisbon you are amazing to me', 'Go out with me', 'I think I love you', 'reading as many as she could until she found one that said 'Turn around'. Doing just that she turned to find the man himself holding one last balloon saying 'I will pick you up at eight' Handing it over to her he gave her a kiss on the cheek and walked off towards the break room. Yeah Lisbon though things have defiantly changed.
(A/N) What did you think Good? Bad?
