Chapter 1

" I can't believe Cavanaugh signed us all up to do this stupid auction."

" Oh Jane you're just saying that because you're worried no one will bid on you." Frankie Rizzoli said while the two of them were waiting behind the stage while their boss was currently being auctioned off to their mother. Korsak was the auctioneer, he volunteered so he wouldn't have to endure it.

" next we have Frankie Rizzoli."

While Frankie was on stage Jane decided to peek out to the audience and see who all was there. She saw her mother getting cozy with Cavannah and next to them was her best friend Maura. She luckily didn't have to endure this. Then off to the left she noticed Casey and knew he was only there for her and knew he'd win her for their date.

" Sold to the young woman upfront."

Frankie had been bought by Crowe's younger sister. Jane knew that was going to be a very exciting date.

" Last but not least we have Detective Jane Rizzoli. The youngest to ever be appointed Detective."

Jane didn't know what to do so she just walked on stage and stood there looking out into the audience.

" Who will start the bid at one hundred dollars?"

" one hundred." Casey said raising his hat.

" one hundred to Colonel Jones. Do I hear one fifty?"

Maura Couldn't stand it. Jane was going to be sold for one hundred dollars and not only that but to Casey. Maura loved Jane and recently that love had grown and Maura was deeply in love with Jane. This was her chance and she was going to take it.

" Five hundred dollars."

The whole room looked right at her , including Jane.

" five hundred to dr. Isles. Do I hear five fifty?"

" One thousand dollars." Casey yelled not wanting to lose Jane for any reason.

Jane was shocked not only had Casey just bid the highest bid of the night on her but he was bidding against her best friend. She was more shocked though that her best friend was bidding for a date with her.

" One thousand to Mr. Jones going once, going twice …

Maura looked right at Jane and could see she was completely shocked and was going to stop bidding until she got the nudge she needed from probably the most unlikely of person.

" Come on Maura. The two of you belong together. She'll see that when your out as a date and not best friends." Maura heard that being whispered in her ear by none other that Jane's mother Angela.

Looking right into Jane's eyes.

" Five thousand dollars."

" wow, the biggest bid of the night. Five thousand to going once going twice. Sold to Dr. Maura Isles."

Jane looked to Casey but all she saw was the back of his shirt as he walked out of the front door.

Walking backstage Jane was still completely in utter shock. She was trying real hard to wrap around her head that she now had a date with her best friend.
