The Breakup
Jane walked into the kitchen carrying her newborn son, William, in her arms. "Look, here goes mommy." She cooed to the infant as she walked over to where Maura stood at the sink. Maura looked up, startled at Jane's presence. "Hey babe" she leaned over giving Maura a quick peck on the lips.
"Why are you in here?"
Maura had in fact disappeared into the house and failed to return for over twenty minutes.
"I was just a little dizzy from all of the noise."
"Do you want me to take you home?" Maura shook her head no.
"No, I'll be okay; I just need some time alone." Jane reached out to her wife rubbing her back reassuringly. Jane grew concerned at feeling her wife tense at her touch but before she could question it, she looked up to where Maura's attention was directed and saw her brother standing at the door.
"Hey, Wassup sis…Maura" Tommy walked over to the two looking down at his nephew who was asleep in Jane's arms.
"How is he?" he asked looking briefly over Maura.
"Surprisingly, well behaved. He doesn't cry that much." Jane explained while Maura looked away trying not to look at the younger Rizzoli. Hearing Angela calling for her, Jane excused herself, handing William over to Maura. Tommy and Maura remained quiet long after Jane had left. Not being able to stand the tension between them, Maura walked away to go place William in his bassinet in his bedroom. Unbeknownst to her, Tommy followed behind her.
"Maura, you can't ignore me, or what happened." Tommy whispered.
"Well I can try. What happened between us should have never happened and I would like for it to remain between us."
"And you don't think I do? I know if Jane were to find out what happened, she would be devastated, but I cannot sit idly by and watch as you love someone who isn't me. I'll give you time to think Maura, but I can't and I won't wait for long." He reached out to the blonde placing a light kiss on her cheek before leaving her there in silence. As he exited the door, he failed to notice his sister standing hidden, in the hallway closet. Jane waited for Maura to leave the infant's room, closing the door behind her and walk into their bedroom. Jane retreated from her hiding place and walked into the bedroom.
At hearing the door open Maura looked up and could see her wife in the reflection of the mirror she stood in front of. She immediately wiped away the tears in her eyes and tried to cover up her emotional turmoil.
"Hey, honey, can you just give me a min-"
"Is there something you want to tell me?"
At first Maura thinks about denying it but decides against it when she sees how angry the detective is.
"Jane, I swear, I don't want to be with you brother. I love you. " She cried out, crawling across the bed to grab hold of the detectives hand who in turn snatched them away.
"Did you sleep with him?"
"What?"
"Did you have sex with my brother?"
"…"
"Did you fuck him!"
"Yes." Maura whispered looking down into her hands in shame as tears fell.
"When?"
"When we were in Santorini."
"The night before our wedding?" Jane was hysterical at this point. She couldn't help crying at the pain she was felt at her heart breaking in two.
Jane turned , storming out the room
"Jane, where are you going?" Maura asked following her out the house. Jane crossed the backyard to where Tommy stood talking to their mother. She grabbed him by the shoulder, and spun him on his heels. Before he could react, her fist connected with his lower jaw. He fell to the ground immediately. She went to jump on him but her father grabbed her before she could.
"What the hell Jane?" Tommy asked holding his bloody jaw.
"Jane Clementine Rizzoli!"
"That fucker slept with my wife."
Angela turns towards Maura, "Please tell me that's not true." Maura looks at her mother in law apologetically. Before she can speak, Jane storms past her and Maura runs after her.
Jane walked into William's room, grabbing several bottles and diapers and placing them into his diaper bag. She gently but quickly picks up her son and places him into his car seat. She grabs the diaper bag, lifting the car seat and walks out the house. Maura runs into the house, looking out the window, she sees Jane opening the driver seat door with William secured in the backseat. She runs outside with Tommy, Angela and Frankie not far behind. She runs up to the car banging on the door windows crying hysterically.
"Jane please, I swear nothing else happened! It was a onetime thing that should have never happened. I only want to be with you."
Jane opened the door, stepping out once again. Jane shook her head at the words Maura spoke. She lifted her hand, sliding the wedding band off of the finger it had rested on for two years and gave it to Maura.
"I can't, I trusted you and you went and did that, the day before I gave my heart to you forever. I love you so much Maura and maybe one day I can forgive you for this but I don't know when." She gets back into the car, shutting the door and pulling off.
Ok, so here's the deal. This is a flashback as a part of the idea I have. I want this to be a full story but I'm not sure if I want it to include what happened before this scene with Maura and Tommy sleeping together or just keep this as a flashback and write what happens after this. Review and let me know what you want. Majority will win. Also, if anyone is willing to be my writing partner on this please message me and let me know.
