A/N: based on random thought and preview to the new Rizzoli and Isles episode on Dec. 12th 2011


After the case dealing with Jane's dead high school classmate Maura starts thinking about her years at college. She starts wondering what happened to her ex girlfriend. They had a very passionate relationship, it was the first time that Maura realized she was bisexual. Jane never knew about this old girlfriend, because she never really asked Maura about her relationship status.

Jane and Maura were sitting at the Dirty Robber, Maura was drinking a beer, she was quite fond of the beverage.

"Glad I got you drinking beer."

"That's why I think you are a bad influence on me," Maura smiled.

"Hey," Jane kicked her friend with her foot. "What does that have to do with beer anyways?"

"I do a lot of things, I usually don't do since meeting you."

"Really, like what else?"

Maura looks at Jane and shrugs, "I don't have any recollection at the moment, but I will think of something Jane Rizzoli."

"Sure you will," Jane rolled her eyes and it was Maura's turn to kick Jane. "Hey that was my ankle," Jane moaned.

"You'll be alright, I didn't use hardly any force to have broken your ankle."

"What am I ever going to do without you Maura?"

"Let's hope we never have to find out," Maura smirked.

Jane smiled, running her foot up and down Maura's leg.

"Jane, what are you doing?" Maura looked under the table, and Jane immediately pulled her foot back.

"Nothing," Jane smirked, even though she was trying to play footsie with Maura. She didn't know why but lately she has been liking any close contact with her best friend. But recently she been just wanting to press her up against the wall and kiss her hard.

"Um... Jane, you've been staring into space for a little while," Maura spoke up and Jane shook her head.

"No reason for it, guess I just zoned out for a moment."

"That's been happening a lot lately with you, are you sure, you are alright?"

Jane nodded, "Yeah I'm fine. Just a little tired."

Maura nodded, "It was an emotional day for you," Maura reached over and squeezed Jane's hand, her thumb running over the top, almost making Jane squirm.

"Maura Isles!" a woman's voice nearly shouted. Maura looks over and sees a dark haired girl with blue eyes.

"Leslie Mitchel," Maura smiled at the woman before her. "What brings you to Boston?"

"I'm a teacher at a middle school, they started winter break so now I have two and a half weeks off."

"That's great, well Leslie this is my best friend Jane Rizzoli."

"Oh, that's why you look familiar, you shot through yourself almost two years ago."

Jane nodded, "Yeah, I always get recognized for me doing something that could have killed me."

"It takes real bravery to do something like that."

"Yeah, but anyways, how do you two know each other?" Jane wanted to get the topic off of her.

"We went to college together, she was my roommate," Leslie stated, not really sure if Maura was even "out" about her sexuality. "She helped me out with some of my classes."

"Do you want a drink or something?" Maura asked, and Leslie smiled.

"Sure, want me to go up with you?"

"If Jane doesn't mind."

"No need Maur, go catch up, I'm tired and just want to go to sleep."

"Are you sure?"

"Positive. Leslie it was nice meeting you, maybe I'll see you again while you're on your break from school," Jane shook her hand. "I'll see you at work Maura, have a good night," Jane kissed her best friend's cheek, before leaving the bar.

Leslie's eyes followed Jane until she was out of the bar.

"So you and Jane? Are you guys really just best friends, or something more?"

"Trust me, me and Jane are just best friends who work together."

"Oh well I can see why you want to hang out with her all the time, she's hot, and her voice is something else."

"Yeah she's a great woman, but isn't gay."

"Oh, so that's why you won't date her," Leslie smiled. "Too bad, because if she was gay I'd totally hit that up."

"Leslie," Maura slapped her arm, "That's my best friend you're talking about, and if I'm not mistaken you are my ex."

"Yeah, I can see how awkward that could be," Leslie smiled. "Speaking of which, have you ever even dated another woman since me?"

"Actually I haven't, you were something special."

"So were you," Leslie smirked, kissing Maura's neck. "Good in bed too," she winked, even though they barely had sex while they were going out.

"You haven't changed at all."

"You know you like it," she whispered in Maura's ear. "I really do miss us together," Leslie caressed Maura's cheek. "But since you are back with going out with guys, I guess there won't be any romance happening between us."

"Don't sound so sure of yourself."

Leslie dug a card out of her jacket pocket, and smiled, "Next time you see Jane, can you give her this?"

"Sure," Maura nodded. "And you can't change Jane's sexuality, because want it or not, Jane Rizzoli is very much straight."

Leslie winked, "I'll hold that to you," she smirked.

"As I said, you have not changed at all," Maura smiled as they headed back to the table.


That was the intro chapter... if you want more, let me know ... also IMPORTANT question, before Rizzles happen would you rather see Maura or Jane hook up/go out with Leslie? majority will rule...
