A/N: This is the start of a story written from a prompt given to me on my Rizzles fanfic tumblr. I plan on making this into a few chapters. All mistakes are my own. Please leave reviews! :)
Chapter One
"But Jane, you promised that tonight you would read my article on the advancing of tongue prints for identifying human remains," Maura whined as the two women exited the precinct.
Jane turned to Maura as she took her hands in her own. "And I will, I promise. But we just closed this case and we've been working on it for 9 days straight. Let's celebrate with the guys for an hour, max, and then we'll go back to your place."
A soft sigh escaped Maura's mouth as the corners of her mouth turned into a smile. "Okay, for just an hour."
All eyes were on the two striking women as they entered the Dirty Robber as if they owned the place. Jane bee-lined to the bar in search of a beer while Maura joined Korsak and Frankie at their booth. Out of habit, Jane went ahead and ordered the most expensive red wine the bar had to offer for Maura without even asking her what she wanted.
Maura thanked Jane as she put the glass of wine down in front of her. Jane slid into the booth next to Maura and joined in on their conversation of what their plans for their next two days off would be.
Jane chuckled a little as she said, "Yeah, we're scheduled for two days off but I bet we'll really only be off for 12 hours".
"Not me, I have solid plans I made with my couch and television. I can't cancel on that for the third time this month," Korsak replied, making everyone laugh.
Their evening continued with more drinks than anticipated and just as much laughter. Jane was on her seventh beer and Maura on her fifth glass of wine when Jane suddenly realized it was almost time for them to leave. She felt the pull of attraction now more than ever. Frankie was telling the group a story about Jane from their childhood and it was making Maura laugh uncontrollably. Jane couldn't take her eyes off of the regal woman no matter how hard she tried. She was mesmerized by the way Maura threw her head back while she laughed, shaking her soft golden brown locks and sending the familiar aroma of her honey scented shampoo into Jane's nose. Every inch of her neck became visible and accentuated her jaw line.
Jane mentally moaned as she thought to herself. God what I would give to kiss her from her jaw, down her neck, to her collarbone. As the thought took over Jane's mind-and her body, causing her to squeeze her thighs together at the oh-so familiar feeling Maura Isles gave her- she tried shaking it away. She'd been in love with the doctor since she met her but was just only recently realizing it. She refused to act on her feelings in fear of messing up their friendship and being humiliated because she was sure that Maura did not reciprocate her feelings. Maybe if she just-
"Jane? Jane," Frankie had been calling her name for at least a minute now. Her cheeks flushed pink as she finally spoke up.
"Huh?"
They all just laughed at her confusion, assuming she had lost the battle to the alcohol and not the beauty of what is Maura Isles.
"Maura, I think you'd better get Jane home," Frankie laughed out.
Korsak joined in, "Yeah, I think she's had one too many tonight".
Jane playfully acted hurt, "Hey! I'm fine, just tired".
Maura looked at her watch and realized the pair had been there for well over an hour. "I'm exhausted as well. We should go, Jane. We can continue these stories at a later time though," Maura winked at the men.
The women got into the car Maura had ordered to pick them up and Jane was staring into Maura's soft eyes with a light smile on her face.
The doctor had realized Jane had finally come to recognize how she really felt for the doctor. She knew, however, that Jane would always be too uncertain to act on those feelings. So Maura made the bravest decision she ever had to make and she leaned into Jane. Once Jane realized what was happening, she closed the distance and felt the softest lips on her own. Maura moaned into the kiss as she pushed her tongue between the succulent lips of the detective's. Jane slightly opened her mouth and welcomed the exploration.
Maura felt steady hands find their way to the back of her neck, pulling her closer into the detective. The kiss deepened and became faster as if they were trying to make up for all the times they hadn't spent kissing. Maura ran her hands through thick dark curls and it felt as though she had been doing this her whole life.
Hands began to explore a little farther until Maura realized they were parked in her driveway. Breaking for the first time since they began their first kiss, Maura declared, "Let's finish this inside".
