Title: oh what a night
Author: Macavity
Setting: the night after 2x12 - Bleeding Heart

SPOILER: Click to show

"Just remember to smile! Smile! Smile! That's good enough staaaaart..." Lisbon was singing at the top of her lungs and it was liberating. No one could see her anyway; she was driving home in the middle of the night after a long day at work. Jane didn't need a ride so she got in, turned the radio on and sang along to each song she heard, not caring whether she knew the lyrics or not. She was in her happy place. After all, it was an amazing day, or evening actually. Better yet - an amazing two minutes. Or was it 90 seconds? She didn't remember, all she knew that it was amazing. She smiled. Big time.

She was still smiling when she put the keys in the door and entered her apartment. She took off her new coat which she bought over the weekend; she was slightly disappointed Jane hadn't noticed as he was usually so perceptive! She hated shopping, but it would've been worth it if she had gotten him to give her a compliment. As much as she disliked his cheekiness when others were around, she secretly liked it when he gave her a compliment in private. "I guess that comes with the crush" she mumbled to herself as she kicked off her boots and walked into the kitchen to make herself a cup of tea.

"Can't you see how happy we would be…" she softly sang as she poured the hot water in a cup, the song reminded her of her grandmother, who always sang it when she was making tea for her guests. "Tea for two" the song was called. It didn't surprise her at all that it also reminded her of Jane, she wasn't much of a tea drinker before she met him and she made a mental note to give him a tea set for his birthday and to tell him the story of her grandmother. "He'd enjoy it, he seems keen to learn more about my private life and that's what I should give him" she told herself firmly, although she knew it would be difficult on her to open up.

As she brushed her teeth she giggled and nearly choked, which made her burst out laughing. It wasn't the act of brushing her teeth that was so funny, but the thought of something she said to Jane earlier that day "go to hell; take a toothbrush!" Where did that come from? A toothbrush? Do they even use toothbrushes in hell? She had no idea, but it made her giggle. And the pencil? Why did she throw the pencil at him? It felt like 4th grade all over again- Jane definitely brought the playfulness out in her and she didn't mind at all. She actually really liked it; it was nice to do some harmless flirting in the office. Or was it more than harmless? She wasn't sure and didn't want to think about it. Not now.

She went to bed and felt the exhaustion taking her over. It had been such a long day, not just the case that took a lot out of her, but also the emotional roller coaster she felt she was in. It wasn't bad though, she was in a happy place and she couldn't stop smiling. The dance was amazing; she felt so comfortable, so at peace with him. She couldn't describe it. Or perhaps she could - it was more than words.

My second entry for this challenge!

Lover's Whisper

Hope you like it, people and I promise to update soon.

By the way, I am absolutely loving all fics, banners, drawings, everything... And I'm dying over here, still waiting for the next episode

Oh well... Guess I'll have to busy myself writting then.

[lilsmiles]

Okay, so i debated whether or not I wanted to enter this month's challenge and I really had a hard time coming up with a fic. But here it is. I'm quite proud of it considering it took me forever to settle on a song and premise that wasn't too out of character, corny or cheesey.

I might post it on FF.net but for now, here it is, uneditted. I figured if I tried to fix it, I'd end up re-writing the darn thing all over again. #headbangwall

Spoilers from 2x12 Bleeding Heart and 2x13 Redline. The title is borrowed from the song of the same name by A Fine Frenzy. Enjoy!


Title: Near to You

Story: LINK HERE

[Yana]

wow...Rachel...that was beautiful! I really can't describe it with any other word. I love that you play around with the characters, putting them in different situations like in the last scene, but you still stay true to their personalities and in a way that makes something as out of character as wading in the water for Lisbon very cute. Her challenge to Jane to join her is also pretty sweet and I think the song fit perfectly.

Great Job I'm glad you decided to enter this month and post this on ff.net asap!!
