Thanks for the two people who did review :)



"Why don't you go get ready for work and ill make some breakfast?" Grace looked down and realized she was wearing her mini shorts and a tank top; she blushed and looked down slightly embarrassed. Rigsby saw this and smiled. He lifted her chin up with his finger.

"Don't worry I think you look great" he said smiling before kissing her. Grace deepened the kiss wrapping one arm around his neck and running the other one through his hair. Rigsby responded by pulling her closer and running a hand from her shoulder to her bare thigh. He could feel her body pressed against him urging him to lay down on the couch; he was about to do so but remembered how upset and scared grace was and realized he didn't want her to do anything she might regret just for comfort. Rigsby broke the kiss and grace looked at him confused.

"Not here, not now." Grace nodded understanding.

"I'm going to have a shower." He watched her walk up the stairs and it took every bit of self control he had not to follow her. So to distract himself he went to the kitchen and began making pancakes. Fifteen minutes later grace came back down stairs dressed in her usual work attire.

"Pancakes again what did I do to deserve you?" Grace said Rigsby smiled.

"I think the question is what did I do to deserve you?" And he placed a plate of pancakes in front of her.

"I couldn't do a G so I did a V instead"

"Aw thanks" Grace smiled laughing after she ate the top pancake she realized the one underneath was a love heart. She stopped and stared at it for some reason the gesture brought tears to her eyes. Rigsby was doing the dishes and didn't see her. Grace stood up and walked up behind Rigsby and wrapped her arms around him resting her chin on his shoulder. Rigsby turned in her arms and wrapped his arms around her.

"Thank you. I don't know what I'd do without you could… could you stay tonight It'd make me feel safer."

"Of course I will." He said kissing her.

"We should get going or we will be late. I'll drive us."


Grace and Rigsby arrived at the CBI office; Grace went in first and Rigsby waited a moment in order not to look suspicious. He decided he'd talk to Jane today and see if he could talk to Lisbon.

Once grace was at work she found her thoughts wandering to her kidnapper and she started becoming agitated and jumpy. Her subconscious began playing tricks on her already unstable frame of mind. She kept seeing someone out of the corner of her eye, she would spin around only to find it was Cho or Lisbon. Grace was typing at her computer when Lisbon came up behind her.

"Vanpelt" she said as she dropped some files on her desk. Grace physically jumped sending the files every where "Vanpelt get it together you have been jumpy all day and I cannot have a jumpy agent" Lisbon scolded rather loudly.

"I... I'm sorry" Grace said before disappearing out of the bullpen. Rigsby stood up to follow.

She's going through something give her a break Rigsby said rudely to Lisbon before storming off after Grace.

"Agent Rigsby do not talk to me like that." Lisbon went to follow him but Jane caught her arm and dragged her into her office.

"What the hell Jane!"

"Calm down woman I need to talk to you about grace... and Rigsby."

"What?"

"You need to go easy on Grace for a while."

"And why is that?" Jane hadn't wanted to tell Lisbon exactly what was going on with Grace but he realized Lisbon wouldn't listen to him without the full story, Grace and Rigsby didn't realize he knew everything but he had done some digging and had found what was going on.

"When Grace was sixteen her and her best friend where kidnapped, her friend sacrificed herself so Grace could escape and now the man that took them got released today."

"Oh." Lisbon said surprised,

"And they are..." Lisbon said referring to Rigsby and Grace

"Yes but Lisbon I think you need to turn a blind eye at least for a while because Grace needs Rigsby and if you make Rigsby choose he will choose Grace."

"I can't do that." Lisbon shook her head. Jane knew she wouldn't agree straight away Jane stood up from his sitting position and lent on her desk. He walked towards Lisbon and Lisbon backed up until her back hit the wall. Jane stood so close to her that she could feel his breath against her skin.

"Jane what are you doing?" Lisbon whispered. Having Jane so close to her made it hard to breathe.

"I know you're just scared." Jane said tracing her jaw with his finger. Lisbon didn't know what to say she just shook her head.

"Don't try to deny it. If Rigsby and Vanpelt can be together ,what's stopping you from getting what you want? Jane's voice was husky and sent shivers up her spine.

"I…I don't know what you're talking about."

"You don't have to lie to me Teresa . This use of her first name made her knees weak.

"It's ok we both want the same thing Teresa." Lisbon tried to say something but Jane shushed her with a single finger on her lips. Jane leaned his face even closer to Lisbon's he removed his finger and replaced it with his lips. Lisbon froze; she had daydreamed about this moment for a long time and could not believe it was happening. After the initial shock Lisbon began to respond, she snaked her arm around Jane neck and let a slight moan escape her lips as Jane deepened the kiss. Jane's hands began to slowly roam Lisbon's body; as the kiss came more intense Lisbon broke away and looked at Jane. Jane went to kiss her again.

"Stop!" Lisbon held a hand over his lips. . Jane nodded and stepped to the side

"I'm sorry maybe I shouldn't have"

"I think I wanted you to just not here not now." Jane nodded, understanding.

"Would you like to go to dinner with me tonight Teresa?" Jane asked flashing his classic Jane smile. Lisbon pretended to think.

"I think I could squeeze dinner in. Her answer made Jane's smile grow even bigger.

"Well have you decided what you are going to do about the love birds?" Lisbon nodded

"I will look the other way but if their relationship interferes with their work or if Minnelli finds out..."

"I know I know and that won't happen." Jane said knowing they weren't just talking about Grace and Wayne.

"Does Vanpelt know you know?" Jane shook his head. Lisbon decided to have a chat to Grace and make sure she was okay.

"I'll see you tonight" Jane said giving Lisbon one last kiss before leaving her office smiling.

"Ok." Lisbon felt her knees go weak again.
