Sick of Love (A Mentalist/Jisbon Fanfiction)

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.."
