A/N: It's been a while since I've updated this. I've been super busy with college and another story and whatnot, but this popped into my head and would not go away. So here it is. Pure, shameless fluff. :)
Drabble Genre: Humor/Romance
Characters: Teresa Lisbon/Patrick Jane
"What do you think?"
"Of what?"
"Of this color."
"That color...is...atrocious."
"It's better than that one."
"It's only better with my eyes closed."
"Keep them closed, then."
"Ouch. Doesn't my opinion matter at all?"
"Of course it does. Just not when it comes to coordinating paint colors."
"I'll have you know I am extremely...trendy. And very responsible in that area."
"How so?"
"My suits are fabulous, as you know. And I never wear white socks with brown shoes."
"Wonderful. I like this one. Two gallons should be enough for the living room, don't you think?"
"The whole living room? In mauve? An entirely mauve living room?"
"I fail to see the issue."
"It's mauve."
"So?"
"So! Cho will be horrified."
"It isn't Cho's house."
"Fine. I will be horrified."
"I don't care."
"Jesus, woman! Why can't we find a color that we agree on?"
"Jane, we could could browse through every color in this store and never, ever find a color that matches that criteria."
"Sure we could. What about...Hunter Green? Or Passion Pink? Or Robin's Egg Blue?"
"..."
"..."
"...?"
"What? I felt that those were all reasonable suggestions."
"Why, why, why did I marry you?"
"..."
"?"
"Because of my uncanny ability to turn everyday tasks such as selecting a paint color for our living room into a thrilling, memorable adventure?"
"No...that's not it."
"It must have been the drugs."
"That makes sense. It would be just like you to slip me something every day."
"Rest assured that I only do that because I am a dedicated, loving husband."
"Really?"
"Really."
"So, you must be willing to go to great lengths to ensure my happiness."
"Yes...?"
"And you'd do anything to keep me in that state of happiness for as long as possible."
"Um...Teresa..."
"Then let me assure you, Patrick, that the one thing in this world that would make me a happy woman is to have a mauve living room."
"..."
"..."
"Fine. Mauve it is."
"Thank you, honey. I love you."
"Yeah, yeah. I suspect you'll want me to do all the painting as well."
"Jane! I remember why I married you now."
"You do? Why?"
"I needed someone to paint my living room."

You can't say "I didn't know she wanted me to review!" now, can you? Mwahahaha.
