Chapter Two: Exposed Secrets

Wow. I got so much positive feedback on the first chapter :D You guys are awesome. All the mistakes are mine. Here's the next chapter, I hope you'll enjoy it!

'Mr. Jane. Could you tell me how it happened?" Asked the doctor, sequencing his instruments; a small stethoscope, frightening looking thermometer, ophthalmoscope and the instrument he had just used on Jane to look into his nose, an otoscope. 

Lisbon frowned and looked at her consultant, who was sitting on a chair in the small hospital room, touching his nose carefully, not feeling comfortable with someone examining him. Lisbon didn't feel any guilt, he deserved the smack on his face, besides.. He told her the fat man had already hit him on his face before she did, so practically she didn't hurt him that badly at all. 

"I don't know. Someone hit me.." He just told the doctor, gazing at Lisbon who gave him a questioning look. The doctor pressed his fingers against the bruised nose, examining it once again.  When he pressed his fingers on the swollen spot of his nose, the pain exploded up Jane's spine to the top of his head, he didn't move a flinch. He just clenched his fists and swallowed the pain.

"I need you to be more specific sir, since your nose might be broken.." 

He shrugged, not wanting to tell him a big boned man and his girlfriend had hit him. The doctor noticed the two lovers were gazing into each others eyes, both not wanting to say what had happened, so he presumed the way it happened was embarrassing. 

"This might be personal.. But young couples like you.. Sometimes, have rough..If you know what I mean. In bed, they're quite rough and sometimes go too far so that one of them gets injured. Is that the issue?"

Lisbon covered her mouth with her hands, trying to control her sudden laugh. She looked at Jane who looked provokingly at the doctor and scratched on his head, reluctantly forcing a smile.

"She hit me, and some other guy hit me too" 

The doctor just nodded, wrote the information down on his notebook and smiled.

"I'll be right back." Spoke the doctor as he left the room. Jane gave the still laughing Lisbon a resentful look and poked her side. She flinched, wanted to punch him again but tried to behave herself and gave him a threatening look instead.

"Great, Now he thinks we're an aggressive couple that has rough sex, and you broke my nose while we were doing it. This is just great.. "He said sarcastically and rolled with his eyes. Lisbon couldn't help herself and bursted out in laughter.

[ One day later ]

Lisbon was sitting behind her desk in the FBI office, filling in some paperwork. She was going through the train of work pretty quickly. She looked at the brown, leather couch from the corner of her eye, and looked at Jane who was sleeping peacefully. The nasal dressing holder looked funny on him and it didn't seem quite comfortable. At the hospital the other day, they made some x rays of his head and nose, and the photos confirmed his nose was broken. Luckily, it wasn't completely destroyed and it would heal normally in a couple of weeks. She actually felt pity for him, it was her who had hit him after all. She noticed Wylie was approaching her, holding some documents in his hands. She turned towards him and smiled slightly. 

"What's the news Wylie?" 

"It is confirmed the suspect is Ashley's father. His name is Phil Stevens, he told Cho during the interrogation he didn't go to Africa, but went to Vegas instead after his wife caught him cheating. When he heard on the news Ashley had been murdered, he travelled back to Austin and roamed around on the streets, and also in the park. Witnesses and camera footages showed us he was in a casino in Vegas at the time of the murder. Jane probably knew this already.."

She shrugged and nodded in response.

"By the way, when we were talking on the phone.. You didn't hang up, so I heard the things the man said, and heard sounds of punching.. I recorded it so we've got enough evidence to keep him here for more interrogations. There's no way he's going to be a free man soon." 

"You heard everything?" She was disturbed by the thought that Wylie had heard her say Jane was her boyfriend, she's never done that before, not in public. The small agent nodded and smiled awkwardly before walking away. 

[ 1 hour later ] 

She clicked on the button to turn on the computer screen and typed in her password. She tapped with her fingers on the table, waiting for the computer to startup. When it finally did, she opened Google and typed in her own name. Why? Because she was bored and everyone had gone home. She was getting tired of all the paperwork and decided to take a quick break to get some delicious coffee. She saw videos of Youtubers searching up their own names on Google.. It seemed like fun, and she was curious what could possibly show up when she searched for her own name.
When Google showed the results, she almost spit out her coffee. Her pupils widened and her hands began to tremble.

Former psychic Patrick Jane dates Teresa Lisbon.

Patrick Jane, also known as the Mentalist is dating special agent Teresa Lisbon. They both work at the FBI in Austin, Texas at the moment after the prorogation of the CBI and the happening with the serial killer Red John, who murdered Jane's wife and daughter years ago. They have been working together for over 12 years. According to the pictures shown right under this article, it is confirmed they're having a secret relationship. The anonymous photographer sent us the pictures by email along with an elucidation:
"It's unbelievable special agent Lisbon is dating a con man after she broke up with special agent Marcus Pike, who proposed to her, she said yes but let him down after Patrick Jane stopped her. I believe their relationship already started when she was dating Pike. They've kept it a secret since then, but it's the right thing to do, to expose it in public. According to me, she's not an 'special agent.' She's a bitch. And Patrick Jane is a sad, poor fraud."

Stay tuned for more articles about this subject.

Sunday, 6th of September.

Resting with her forehead against her hands, she let out a deep, worried sigh. Only her closest friends were aware of their secret relationship. She made them promise they wouldn't say anything to anyone. With them, she meant Van Pelt, Rigsby, Cho, and Fischer. Now, the whole country knew they were dating! She could lose her job because of this, why would somebody spy on them? And who? She was so lost in her thoughts and worry, she didn't notice Jane had already woken up and was standing behind her. She flinched when she felt two familiar hands massaging her shoulders.

"Don't worry Lisbon." 

She looked up and forced a quick smile as soon as she saw the head with two bright blue eyes and messy curls. When he felt her body relaxing again, he chuckled. 

"Everybody knows.." She mumbled as she pointed at the computer screen. He followed her hand, bent over and read the title of the article in shock. He continued and with every word he read, it felt like his heart skipped a beat. 

"Everybody knows now.. What are people going to think of me dating you? Who spied on us? I'm scared Jane.. We might lose our jobs too.." 

He grabbed a chair and shoved it towards Lisbon's desk.  She turned and watched him taking a seat opposite of her. He took her hands and squeezed softly in them. 

"You're the most beautiful woman I've ever seen in my life. I don't care what other's think, I'm happy as long as I'm with you..  You truly mean everything to me. I'm going to find out who did this, and if somebody doubts or insults you, just call me and ai'll make sure they will never do it ever again." He spoke determined, staring into her green eyes. Her cheeks started to become pink. 

"Alright Mr Superhero." She said, poking him against his shoulder. He chuckled shyly.

"I'm not a superhero."

"Alright. If you want to compare it to real life.. I'm batman and you're Robin."

"Why do you get to be Batman?"

"First, because Robin is Batman's sidekick, and you're my consultant. See the comparison? Second, I'm stronger than you." 

He rolled with his eyes and poked her playfully against her shoulder. 

"Alright Miss know-it-all."

[ The next morning ] 

Lisbon yawned as she walked out of the elevator. It was in the early morning, around 7 Am. And she was tired as hell. She didn't really sleep last night because she was worried about the news article, and the person that was spying on them.

"Good morning Teresa" A voice spoke from behind her. She turned around to say good morning back, but the words wouldn't come out as soon as she saw the brown haired man, he was leaning with his back against the wall and he smirked in an evil way when he saw the shocked expression on her face.

"Marcus..?"
