Authors Note: HOLY COW! I cannot believe the response I got to the last chapter. I swear it seems like I got more reviews for chapter 7 than I did for all the other chapters combined. I know I didn't, but that's just what it seems like. And I just have to share (I may have already, but I don't care) my sister just found out she's pregnant, after two years of trying, I'm going to be an aunt again! Thanks to every one who reviewed and offered opinions. And as always a great big thank you to Ebony 10 for the great job betaing.

Disclaimer: If I owned them I wouldn't have to wait until the end of June to go to Disenyland.

Jane woke up slowly, which was unusual. Normally he woke with a start, from bad dreams or just from the shock that he had been asleep, but this morning (and it was morning—he could tell by the shade of light coming through the cracks in the cheap hotel blinds) he woke slowly. It took him a minute to figure out why it was that he slept so soundly last night, why it was that he felt so warm and cozy this morning. He was lying on his side facing the door of the hotel room. Lisbon, he knew, was sleeping on the other side of him. He was facing away from her.

He felt a gentle warmth on his back and a slight weight on his side. He was not sure, but he thought that Lisbon might be—well, holding was not the right word, but it was close enough. She was holding him. In her sleep, of course. He could tell by her breathing that she was still sleeping. He didn't want to wake her up, but he knew that if she woke to find that she was the one holding him this time, she would die from embarrassment and all the "progress" they made the day before would be lost today in her embarrassment and inability to meet his gaze.

Jane slowly turned over so that he was facing her. She looked so peaceful in her sleep. He noticed for the first time the slight pink tinge to the tip of her nose and realized that she must have gotten slightly sunburned the day before. He had the urge to reach down and give her burned nose a kiss to make it feel better. It was a little game he used to play with his daughter. Every time she would bump her knee or her elbow or her nose, she would come running to him and ask for a kiss to make it all better.

Jane wondered slightly what Lisbon would say if she woke up to him kissing her nose and, instead of dwelling on it, he put his arms around her and pulled her close to him, cradling her head just below his chin so that if he wanted he could rest his chin on the top of her head. He carefully smoothed the back of her hair down and then closed his eyes. Her family wanted to spend the day at Disneyland (just the five of them) so he had Lisbon to himself the whole day. She could use the sleep so he wasn't going to wake her.

An hour later, Jane realized that he had dozed off again. The whole sleeping with Lisbon thing was going to become a hard habit to break if he didn't stop soon. In a way, he was glad that this was their last day at Disneyland. He wouldn't have to be tempted anymore. He looked down at her and realized that while they were both sleeping she had turned over so that she now had her back to him. It was a much more intimate position than they were in before and, before he could do anything stupid (like pull her closer and never let her go again), he jumped out of bed. He didn't care if he woke her up at this point. It was long past the time for the free breakfast offered by the hotel and if they didn't get a move on soon they would have spent the whole day in bed. Not that that would be a bad thing…No! She was just a good friend.

He quickly grabbed his last clean outfit out of his bag and went into the bathroom. Lisbon heard the shower turn on and sat up, sighing. She had been enjoying herself. Unlike yesterday, when she woke up today and realized that Jane had his arms around her, she had decided to enjoy it. It wasn't very often that she got to spend time in the warm embrace of a man she cared for. She was almost disappointed when he woke up and realized what he was doing. It had seemed almost like he was scared of the intimate way they had been laying. Not wanting to think about it anymore, she turned on the TV to see what type of mindless dribble the Disney Company was trying to sell to children at this time of the morning.

After realizing that they were indeed showing an all-day Hannah Montana marathon, Lisbon decided that nothing was better than that and turned off the TV. She sat on the bed staring at the blank TV as she listened to the sounds coming from the bathroom. Jane's pleasing tenor voice singing (something she noticed he did a lot), the water running, the sound of the fan sucking the steam out of the bathroom. The water stopped and with it the sound of Jane's voice. Lisbon contemplated getting out of bed at this point, or at least turning on the TV (surely there were other shows on), but she realized she didn't want to.

She was still sitting there staring at the blank screen when Jane came out of the bathroom. He stood off to the side of the bed for a few minutes, out of her direct line of sight. She could tell he was there, but not what he was doing or wearing. "I hope you have clothes on." She said without turning her head.

Not bothering to respond to her words, Jane said, "Is the TV really that interesting?"

Lisbon turned her head towards him to give a witty retort, but the words died on her lips. "What do you know?" she said after a few seconds. "You really do own shorts." He was wearing a pair of dark wash denim shorts. They were remarkably unfussy, much like the pants and jeans he had worn the rest of the week. And today, instead of a button up shirt, he was sporting a white t-shirt with Mickey Mouse on it.

"What do you think? Casual enough for a day at Disneyland with a friend?" Jane asked, leaning against the wall behind him.

"Yeah, that works great." Lisbon decided that it was a good time to get up. Things were starting to get a little awkward. "I'm just going to get ready. Then how about we get some breakfast?"

"Sounds good." He said with a slight half smile as she walked past. Jane had big plans for today. He wanted to go on all the roller coasters that they hadn't had a chance to go on with the kids. He was thinking that they should do the Haunted Mansion, Splash Mountain, Space Mountain, and...what else was there? He was still thinking when Lisbon came out of the bathroom, her hair hanging in damp curls around her shoulders. It didn't matter how many times he had seen her this way—he still couldn't get over how beautiful she was.

"We should go on the Matterhorn today." She said, turning to face the mirror. She decided not to blow-dry her hair and instead just pulled it back into a ponytail.

"That's the one I couldn't remember." Jane said, Jumping up from where he sat. "I've got it all mapped out. Let's go!" He was excited. This was what he had been waiting for the whole week: a day alone with Lisbon.

They decided to grab breakfast in the park and headed out. To Lisbon's surprise, there was almost no wait at the small restaurant that they went to. They ordered waffles with whipped cream and chocolate milk. Lisbon felt a little silly ordering something that a child would, but Jane seemed to be enjoying it so she forced herself to relax.

They were storing her backpack in a locker for the day when Lisbon noticed Jane staring at her face. "What?" she asked, wiping a hand over her mouth, thinking that maybe she had a little whipped cream still on her face.

"Your nose," He said, reaching out and almost touching it. "Did you bring your sunscreen today?"

Lisbon felt herself starting to blush. She had forgotten to reapply her sunscreen halfway through the day yesterday and had noticed that her nose was a little redder than normal. "Yeah, I already put it on at the hotel." She said, shoving her backpack into the locker and grabbing her camera.

"So I was thinking that first we should head towards the Haunted Mansion. What do you think?" Jane asked as they strolled down Main Street. Jane was walking with his hands clasped behind his back and was half tempted to reach over and grab Lisbon's hand.

"That sounds good." She said. They took their time getting to the Haunted Mansion. There was really no rush today. They laughed at the pet cemetery outside of the mansion and couldn't help but realize that the only people who were scared on this ride were the small children. The spent more time trying to point out all of the scenes that had been in the movie based on the ride than actually being scared.

The next ride they headed to was Splash Mountain. Jane spent a lot of time looking at the people who were dropping off the edge of the ride. "Trying to figure out what's going through their heads at that final moment?" Lisbon asked him teasingly.

"Yes actually. It's fascinating to look at their faces and try to figure out which ones are scared and which ones are in it for the thrill. Tell me, Lisbon. Are you scared or are you in it for the thrill?" He looked at her with his trademark big grin on his face.

"Oh, the thrill. Definitely." She said exaggeratedly. They got closer to the front of the line and the music could be heard on speakers.

"Did you know that "Song of the South" is one of the only Disney films to never have been released in its full form?" Jane asked her with his annoying 'I know more than you' look.

"I didn't know that, but how is it relevant to this ride?" Lisbon asked, trying to keep the smirk off her own face.

"This ride is loosely based on the stories in the movie." He couldn't help grinning widely at her. He loved showing off in front of her. It was juvenile, yes, but he knew she liked it even if she said she didn't. The wait wasn't very much longer and, with only a little prodding from Jane, Lisbon agreed to sit in the front of the boat with him.

"This is crazy," Lisbon said as they went around the first bend and water sloshed over the side into the boat. Her feet were completely soaked and they hadn't even gone over the plunge. "I hope you get as wet as I'm about to, Jane, or we're going on this ride again and you're going to sit in front of me."

"I thought you said you were in this for the thrill, Lisbon." Jane said quietly, leaning forward so that he could whisper in her ear. "Don't worry. If I don't get wet, I'll let you push me in the Rivers of America." He sat back and laughed slightly.

When the time came for them to go over the waterfall, Lisbon leaned back and down slightly in an attempt to get more water to hit Jane. It worked and they both got off the ride completely soaked from head to toe.

"Well," Jane said, sitting on a bench outside the ride, "At least we don't have to worry about getting too hot today." He looked over at Lisbon who was taking off her shoes and wringing out her socks. "Don't worry, we'll dry out eventually." Lisbon just shook her head at him, trying to keep the smile off her face, but not succeeding.

"Yes, I suppose that we will dry eventually, but unless you are willing to buy me a dry shirt we're going to have to go back to the hotel." Lisbon said, standing up. Jane looked at her and forced himself to look away again. The plain white t-shirt she was wearing was wet enough to be see through. Jane was half tempted to tell her not to worry, that it would dry, and that she looked just fine that way, but he knew that she would hurt him if he did.

"Let me get you a new shirt. I'm the one who wanted to sit up in the front." He said, standing and walking to the closest gift shop to see what type of shirt he could get for her. He quickly picked out a tank top with a Mickey Mouse on it that matched the one on his shirt. She changed in the bathroom and came out with her wet shirt in the bag that the new one had come in.

"We should head back to the locker so you can put sunscreen on your shoulders. Your skin is far too delicate for the amount of sun that we'll get today." Jane said, reaching up and brushing a hand against her shoulder.

"Um, thanks for the concern." Lisbon said, feeling herself blush. "I tend to get a little freckly if I get to much sun." She didn't know why she told him and hurried off to keep him from noticing her slight embarrassment. They did go back to the locker and Lisbon begrudgingly allowed Jane to apply the sunscreen to her shoulders. She disliked the feeling she got when he touched her—no, disliked was the wrong word. She was uncomfortable with the feelings she got when he touched her and was afraid he would be able to tell so as soon as he was done, she pulled away.

"Where should we go now?" Lisbon asked as they exited the building with the lockers in it.

"How about some lunch? There's a little place in New Orleans square that has the best clam chowder soup bowls." Jane said, walking down the street.

"Isn't it a little warm for soup?" She teased him.

"It's chowder and no, it's not. Besides, it's really good and not that expensive for Disneyland."

They arrived at the small windows through which they ordered their food and Lisbon balked at paying $8.00 for a bowl of soup. She had to admit, though, that it was good and in the end it was less than she had spent on a lunch the entire week.

"I was thinking the Matterhorn then Space Mountain and I'd love to get some more shopping done before we have to leave. We're not actually going to be in the park tomorrow and I still owe A.J. something worth $100 for beating you at the Autopia." Lisbon said as they threw away their trash and started walking again.

"Sounds good to me. Two rides should give us plenty of time to get back over to this side of the park for dinner." He was tempted to put his arm around her shoulder, but resisted. He didn't want her to break it.

"Why would we come back here for dinner?" She asked.

"It's a surprise." He said, wiggling his eyebrows at her. She just rolled her eyes and walked faster.

They stood in the line for the Matterhorn. For the most part they were silent, but occasionally they talked. "I always hated riding this with my brothers." Lisbon said as they watched the bobsleds speed past.

"Why?" Jane asked, looking over at her.

"The short person always rides in front and you have to slide as far back as you can in the ride. It's just a little uncomfortable to ride in the lap of your brother, that's all." She was getting flustered and was sorry that she had brought it up. Now Jane would think that she would be uncomfortable practically sitting in his lap on this ride.

When they got to the front of the line the woman loading the ride gave them the option of riding in separate cars, but Jane quickly said that they would ride together. Really, he did it just to watch her blush and he was indeed rewarded with her bright red cheeks that had nothing to do with the sun. They had a lot of fun on the ride and, despite her mild embarrassment when loading, Lisbon didn't mind sitting so close to Jane on the ride.

They went over to Space Mountain next and again stood in line talking occasionally. Lisbon found that she liked not feeling like she had to speak every minute to fill the silence. She found that she liked just being there with him, not having to worry about putting on the face of the tough boss.

"Did you know-" Jane started and Lisbon rolled her eyes. More Disney trivia. Jane just ignored her. "Did you know that the lights are what really make this ride? If you close your eyes on this ride, it's just like going around in a big circle. It's not nearly as fun. Same as if the music goes out—just not as fun."

"Really? Have you done it before?" Lisbon thought about the last time she had been on the ride and realized that he was probably right.

"Yes. As a matter of fact, I have done it before. It really wastes the hour or two you spend waiting in line." He laughed at the exasperated expression on her face.

When they got on the ride, Lisbon was half tempted to close her eyes on the ride to see if Jane was right, but decided not to as she didn't want to spend another two hours in line. When they got off the ride, it was indeed almost time for dinner. They slowly made their way back to New Orleans Square where, to Lisbon's surprise, they went to the only fine dining restaurant inside of Disneyland, Blue Bayou.

The food was nice and it wasn't nearly as noisy as she thought it was going to be, even with all the people waiting in line for the Pirates of the Caribbean. They both decided on the Jambalaya and ate in silence. Lisbon was really enjoying herself until she noticed Jane was staring at her.

"What?" She asked.

"Nothing, just…nothing" Jane said, looking away slightly.

"Did I get sunburned again? It hasn't been that long since I reapplied my sunscreen and that was after I got all wet." She reached up to feel her cheeks to see if they felt warm.

"No. No sunburn, just a few freckles, that's all. It's cute." She felt her cheeks getting hot now.

"Thanks, I think." She mumbled into her food.

They finished eating and headed back to Main Street to do some shopping. Jane didn't seem to buy anything, but Lisbon managed to get things for everyone in the unit. T-shirts much like the one Jane was wearing for Rigsby and Cho and a tank top much like the one she was wearing for Van Pelt. She also picked out small gifts for her niece and nephews and a nice pair of Mickey earrings for her sister.

"What are you going to get A.J.?" asked Jane when Lisbon had paid at the last store. She had purchased a new coffee mug for herself and one for Minnelli.

"I don't know. I'm thinking I might just give him the cash and let him decided what to get himself." She said while looking through yet another store.

"Won't that make your brother mad?" He asked.

"Probably, but that's ok. I'm the aunt. That's what I'm here for." She smiled slightly at that and just kept shopping. It seemed to Jane that they spent hours shopping. Lisbon was picking out gifts for upcoming birthdays and Christmas too. When she was finally done and they were heading back to the hotel, both Jane and Lisbon had their arms full of bags.

"I always hate having to go back to work after a vacation." Lisbon said, sitting on her bed in her pajamas. She was going through the bags that they had brought back from the park, sorting them into what needed to go where.

"It's like you don't want it to end." Jane said, agreeing with her as he sat on the other side of the bed. He turned the TV on and sat there looking at the screen as a made-for-TV movie on the Disney Channel played. He wasn't really watching it, but actually watching her out of the corner of his eye. He smiled when he heard her gasp.

"What's this?" She asked, holding up a small box.

"I thought it might be nice if someone got something for you. Think of it as a thank you for not kicking me out the first day when I showed up. You didn't have to let me stay and I'm glad that you did." He was still staring at the screen, but could tell that what he had said had made an impact. Without warning, she reached over and wrapped her arms around him.

"Thank you. They're gorgeous." She whispered in his ear before letting him go.

"Are you actually going to keep them this time?" He asked, chuckling slightly to try to alleviate some of the tension he was feeling inside.

She playfully swatted him on the arm as she got off the bed and went to stand in front of the mirror. "These are nowhere near as expensive as the last earrings you bought me. I think I like them more, really." She pulled a pair of dangling earrings out of the box and put them in her ears. They were chains of small Mickey heads in what looked like emerald, with a slightly larger one at the bottom. "Now, whenever I want to remember this trip I just have to put these on. Much easier than a t-shirt, really. I can wear these to work."

"I'm glad you like them." Jane called to her from the bed. He had removed all of the bags and was trying to get comfortable on the top of the blanket.

"You know, you pull on the blankets when you sleep on top of them. Why don't you just sleep under the covers tonight?" She was slightly nervous about suggesting it, although she didn't know why. They were just friends. At the look on his face, she added, "Just no funny business, got it?"

Jane nodded and readjusted himself on the bed, holding up the covers for her to slide under. She turned out the light and turned off the TV before climbing into bed with him. "Good night, Jane." She said, snuggling under the covers and facing away from him.

"Good night." He replied quietly, laying on his back and staring at the ceiling. He didn't know if he would be able to sleep tonight. She was just too close. He waited until he was sure she was asleep before rolling over to his side and pulling her to him. He knew she would probably classify this as 'funny business,' but didn't care. He liked the feel of her body against his and, even though he had managed to hold her close while they were sleeping before, there was just something different about holding her close with nothing but their thin pajamas between them.

Trying not to think about what it meant that he wanted to hold her and never let her go, he placed a tender kiss on the top of her head and closed his eyes. He would get to sleep if it took him all night.

This was definitely a vacation to remember.
