Lisbon stared at the door, curled like a little ball with tears in her eyes. Fear clutched her heart and started to sob as she continued to look anxiously the door. Her child, her little Sam ran through her eyes every time she closed her eyes. She imagined him laughing, his blond hair flying in the air and screaming as she scooped him up with Jane on their side smiling bright to them.
The door opened with a small knock and Cho came inside and approached her. He looked serious and she immediately felt a pinch in her heart. She wiped her eyes before she spoke:
"What's going on Cho? Where is Jane? Cho, please talk to me" Lisbon plead with tears in her eyes.
"Wylie found something in the videos from the security cameras. The person who took your baby is a woman." Cho started explained softly. "We tried to ran a face recognition to her image but..."
"But what Cho? " Lisbon said irritated.
"Jane recognized that woman. She is someone he know. Someone we all know." Cho continued.
"Who? Come on Cho. Who is she?" Lisbon asked upset.
"Kristina Frye." Cho said lightly and waited her reaction.
"How can...? Are you sure? I thought she was still lost in her mind. That she believes she is still dead." Lisbon respond confusion
"She had a good treatment. We contacted with her doctor and he told us she was released a month ago."
"I don't understand. Why do she want to hurt us? Where is Jane?"
"He is with Wylie. He can't face you, he feels responsible for what it happened."
Lisbon stood up ignoring Cho and left her room and went to find Jane. Cho followed her without trying to stop her.
"What the hell is going on Jane?" Lisbon yelled at Jane as she entered the room.
"I see you spoke with Cho. I will find her Lisbon. " Jane respond trying to calm her down.
"Why did you send Cho? And what did really happen between you and Kristina?" Lisbon asked aggressive.
"Nothing happened. You know everything. I send Cho because I thought it was better not to learn about it from me." Jane replied softly.
"I don't believe you Jane. How much stupid do you think I am? Do you want me to believe that a woman you were pretty close back then, came and took my son without a reason?" Lisbon screamed at him.
"OUR son and yes, I want you to believe it cause it's the truth. I haven't seen her for years and I was really surprised when I saw her in the video." Jane respond death serious. "I don't know why she did it but I'm gonna find it. Don't doubt about me Teresa. Please."
"We will find my son first and then we will make a talk later." she said coldly and left him to speak with Tork and Wylie.
They stayed there searching for Kristina for hours. Lisbon refused to talk or see Jane despite all his efforts to approach her. He didn't want to push her and he stayed away from her with a sigh.
Late at night Cho's phone rang and he smiled a little. He hang up and looked at Lisbon and Jane before he spoke:
"They found her. She is at Pennybacker bridge and she has the baby with here." Cho said and they ran to the car and drove there as quickly as they could. Lisbon sat beside Jane at the way to the bridge silent with her eyes closed touching her cross.
When they arrived they spotted her with Sam in her hands on the edge of the bridge. Jane and Lisbon approached her softly and carefully.
"Kristina, Is Sam fine?" Lisbon asked worry.
"He is very good. He is sleeping now." Kristina replied with a voice filled with emotions looking at Lisbon and then the baby.
"Why did you take him Kristina?" Jane asked gentle.
"I wanted to hurt you Jane. You abandoned me and never cared about my recovery. It was your fault I was in there." Kristina hissed at him.
"I tried to bring you back but I failed. I'm sorry. Please give us back the baby, Kristina. Don't hurt him." Jane said calm.
"I wanted to kill him. That's why I came here. But when he looked at me, I paralyzed. I couldn't do it. He is so perfect, so innocent, so soft. Like a small angel." Kristina whispered and smiled to the baby sweet.
"Kristina, give me back my son and I promise to help you. Please." Lisbon said tearfully her voice broken with emotions
"You want to help me? I just talk you I wanted to kill your son. " Kristina replied confused.
"I understand you must have been scared when you learnt what happened and you acted unconsciously. But you have to stop it now Kristina. You can start over if you want. It's not too late. Please give me my son back and I promise I will help you." Lisbon respond and swallowed nervously.
"Come and take him Lisbon." Kristina said and Lisbon moved closer. When she was in front of her, Kristina placed the baby carefully in Lisbon's hands and took some steps back.
Lisbon hugged the baby tight on her body and after a few seconds she felt Jane above her and caressed softly the baby's head. When they return they focused to Kristina she was on the dangerous close on the edge of the bridge and she was watching them with a face filled of sadness and regret.
"Kristina, come on. Let's get out of here." Jane said gentle and offered his hand to catch her.
Kristina shook her head and tears began to run down her face. She whispered a low "I'm sorry, Forgive me.' and jumped off the bridge. Jane and Lisbon screamed to her but it was too late.
The next day:
Lisbon was on her hospital room and laid down on the bed with Sam on her arms breast-feeding him. She had a huge smile on her face and her eyes shining at the sight of her son. She felt a warm in her heart, a new unfamiliar love for him. He was with her now and nothing else mattered.
Jane was outside hesitant to go inside. The last time Lisbon was cold and distant when she learnt about Kristina and he was worried about her reaction when she would see him. He ran his hand through his hair and let out a sigh.
"What are you doing here?" Jane heard Cho's voice from behind and turned to see him. "You should be with them now."
"I don't know if Lisbon wants me there. " Jane replied lightly.
"Clear your mind and go to your wife and child. Don't be stupid." Cho said calm and left him without waiting a respond.
Jane took a big breath and opened the door slowly. He entered closing the door behind softly. Lisbon heard a noise and looked up scared.
"God Jane, you scared me. I was afraid it was someone else and see me like this." she said and gave him a small smile.
"Sorry. I didn't mean it. How are you and Sam?" Jane asked looking at the beautiful sight of his son who seemed to enjoy his meal.
"We are fine. The doctor examined Sam and found him very good. " Lisbon said happily and lifted her head to face him. "Why are you so far? Sit next to us." she continued and she pointed him the bed.
Jane was hesitant at first but he took some steps and sat beside her. He smiled at her and touched the baby's foot.
"What's going on Jane? You seem serious." Lisbon said confusion.
"I was afraid, you didn't want me here." Jane whispered.
"Why won't I...? Oh... it's because of my reaction before. Jane, I didn't mean it. I was terrified and hearing about Kristina trigged some old memories." Lisbon said calm "Do you want to hold him? He finished eating. " she continued and offered him Sam.
Jane looked at her with unshed tears in his eyes and took Sam carefully in his hand, cuddling him gently in his chest.
Lisbon buttoned her shirt and watched them with a huge grin on her mouth. She moved closer and kissed both on their cheeks.
"We can solve everything if we are a team Jane. Together we're strong. We can figure it out the rest." Lisbon said serious looking at him in his eyes.
"Yes, you make a great team." Jane replied and pecked her on her lips.
Lisbon watched Jane holding Sam. The love of her life, her best friend, her baby's father. She smiled and laid back on the pillow. They were all together and that was the important. No one could stay in front of their happiness.
