"Let go of me, please let me go to her!", Maura screamed. The mangled body of her wife laid on the street in the pouring rain. The blood that had spewed out of her head-wound just a minute ago mingled with the rain and the mud of the dusty street en provided a macabre sight.
She managed to escape the strong hold of the police officer that held her, she ran to the dead woman on the pavement, and fell on her knees. All she could do was scream with all the piercing pain she felt in her broken heart, "JANE, JANE, JANE!"
Jane turned towards her and looked inquiringly up at her and said "Why do you disturb my eternal sleep, Maur'?"
..
"Mau-ra, Mau-ra."
Maura opened her eyes and looked into the very concerned eyes of her beloved wife.
"Jane..." she whispered and she reached up to Jane's face. She softly and tentative, as if Jane was would disappear any second, touched her chin.
"You had a nightmare, my love," Jane said lovingly to her wife, "Its alright, everything is fine!"
"I dreamed that you were..."Maura didn't dare to voice her nightmare, but Jane knew exactly what she meant. Jane's job wasn't without risk and both knew it.
"It's my last day, my love." Jane reassured Maura, "Only the last pieces of paperwork have to be done. No gumshoe thing okay." She looked into Maura's eyes and winked, "This afternoon we celebrate with Korsak, Frankie, Nina and the boys at the dirty robber! Jane smirked and took her wife head between her hands, leaned towards her and gives her a soft kiss on the lips, "No more playing hero, remember?"
Maura nodded softly with her head but said nothing, the fear of her nightmare is still present in her eyes, although she smiled back at the love of her life.
"It was so real, Jane." she whispered after a few seconds of silence.
"I know, nightmares usually are." She stands up from their bed, "Come out of bed and join me for some scrambled eggs with fake 'cough UGGGHHH' bacon!"
"That sound delicious, but Jane? "
"Yes, my love." Jane turned around and looked at her wife.
"I bought the real one for you. We have something to celebrate today." Maura smiled as she saw the happy expression on her wife's face.
Jane's eyes started to glow in delight "You have? You are the very bestes wifey in the who-o-ole wide world!"
"I know!" Maura's eyes looked mischievously at Jane, "That's why you married me!"
Jane nodded and said with a smile in her voice, "Last one in the kitchen has to make dinner! and ran out of the bed room, leaving a bewildered Maura behind...
"JANE! "Maura shouted after her disappearing wife, but all Jane did was laughing and cheering.
Maura shook her head but smiled "I've married a child!"
..FIN..
