A/N: Hello Rizzoli and Isles fanficters;) I recently acquired a LOVE of this show and can't wait for season 2! So I needed some fanfiction to get this show out of my system My first Rizzoli & isles story, I usually do law and order SVU. Please read and review By the way, its ay past my self-imposed 'bed time' ;) so… not going to be my greatest work…

Disclaimer: if I owned this show or any of these characters', I'd be publishing these stories and getting paid for them. In other words, no, I don't own them.

Working as a medical examiner, you wouldn't expect Maura Isles to become queasy at the sight of a dead body. In fact, this wasn't even one of the more gruesome scenes they saw. But for whatever reason, today Maura was joining Frost for a puke-a-thon.

"Hey, Rizzoli, is the Doc okay?" Korsak asked, concerned. "Since when is the queen of the dead amoung the faint hearted?"

Jane gave him a look. "God, you sound like Crowe" she said. "Take a look at the vic, I'm going to check on our patients"

Jane walked over to Frost and Isles puking into separate park trash cans. "Now Frost, I expect. But you Maura…?"

Maura finished vomiting and wiped off her mouth. "I'm fine. I think I'm digesting something containing pathogen microorganisms" She recognized Jane's look of confusion. "Food poisoning"

"Ahh. Well, you ready to go look at some reddish- brown stains?" Jane asked with a wink.

"Jane, just because we work homicide doesn't mean there'll be any reddish- brown stains" Maura said. Jane smiled and was glad to have her friend back to her usual self.

"Alright, Doc, how are those DNA samples coming along?" Korsak asked.

"Huh?" Maura asked, a bit distracted. "Oh, the samples, um I'm running them-" she was interrupted by a yawn, "-Through CODIS, they should be back soon."

"You ok?" Jane asked worried.

"yeah, I'm fine, I've just been so tired lately" Maura replied with another yawn.

"Oh, is it that mystery called who's keeping you u late?" James Richard asked as he walked over to the group. James was a lab assistant and Maura's right hand man in the lab whenever she seldom needed one. He was well liked by everyone, enough so to joke around with them.

"Oh, Who's this mystery called jimmy speaks of?" Jane asked, intrigued.

"No on-" Maura was cut off

"Dr. Isles's phone is constantly vibrating all over the place with texts, and whenever she opens one, she always gets this little school-girl smile. I fear that in time, we may even see the good doctor… giggle!"

"Oh, be quiet Jimmy, you just like to come upstairs to stare at the receptionist's ass" Maura retorted.

"And to give you good news. We got two hits from the samples found on john doe, AND we've no identified John Doe 29478 to be Liam O'Flannigen. Here's where it get's interesting: as you noticed in autopsy, Liam had nail polish in his wounds. I was able to match it to the color perfect purple. The blood we matched belongs to Shea and Mairead O' Flannigen. Yes, the Mairead O'Flannigen from Fox 25 news at 5, known for her infamous purple nail polish. Ladies and Gentlemen, I think we've found our killers" Jim announced.

"Nice work, Richard!" Maura praised, "I should leave you alone with cases more often"

"well, with the number of texts you're getting, you pretty much are" he said with a joking wink as he left.

"Alright, I have got to go find out Mairead and Shea's motives," jane said putting on her jacket. She grabbed Maura as she was about to leave. "And you and I need to talk about Mr. Texts later".

"Doc's in trou-ble" Frost said in a sing-song voice. Maura rolled her eyes and went back to the lab. On her way out she ran into Angela.

"Oh, hello Mrs. Rizzoli" She said

"Maura, you look beautiful!" Angela said. "I cant tell what it is, but you look great" she said with a smile and a hug.

Maura laughed. "I wish I was feeling great" she said under her breath, not being one to often complain.

"Ma, what's the matter?" Jane asked.

"I'm looking for your brother" She answered. "I called him 3 times at home last night and he didn't pick up once, I was worried sick"

"Ma, he probably wasn't home last night. You should have just tried his cell"

"There you are! Where were you last night?" Angela asked as Frankie Jr. entered.

"Patroll, ma" Frankie said, giving his mother a kiss

"Well I was trying to call you to tell you that that girl Kayla from across the street is single and her mother and I are going to set you two up!" Angela said, excitedly.

"No thanks, ma"

"Francis Joseph Rizzoli Jr., just let someone help you for once"

"I appreciate the effort, but I don't need the help"

"you're going on that date, mister"

Frankie knew it was just better to say ok than ot argue any further. "Alright, Ma"

Angie left all smiles. Jane waited until their mother was out of earshot.

"Frankie, you weren't on patrol last night. Ames and McLaughlin were." Jane said

"So"

"So where were you?"

Frankie turned red. "None of your business"

"Oh, I get it!" Jane said. "Frankie's got a girl-friend!" she said in her sing-song voice.

"Brought lunch!" Jane said, entering the lab. Maura immediately slammed the text book she was reading and shoved it back onto the shelf.

"hey, you're earlier than usual, you scared me" Maura said.

Jane gave Maura a suspicious look.

"Ok, well I brought you your usual chicken Caesar salad"

Maura looked like she was going to be sick. "Actually, I'm just… I'm, I can't"

"You trying to lie and tell me you're not hungry?"

"Yes, I understand that buying lunch for someone else is a kind gesture and it is considered rude to refuse, but the smell of that dressing is making me sick" Maura admitted.

"Ok, one, you're a sucky liar and we all know it, and two, since when do you not adore chicken Caesar salad?"

"I don't know, but its making me sick. There's a new Mexican place 2 blocks from here that I wanted to try"

"Maura, you HATE spicy food. You're acting weird- like more so than usual" Jane said with a wink.

The next day, Jane Rizzoli walked into the M.E.'s room and greeted her best friend.

"Hey, Maura" She called out, "I brought non-dead fridge cheese" she said jokingly. Maura, however, did not respond. This was odd. It was not unusual for Dr. Isles to get caught up in her work, but it was weird for her to completely ignore her friend.

"Maura?" Jane called, a little worried

"One moment, Jane" Maura responded, a bit agitated. This is weird Jane thought t herself; to be honest, usually I'm the one to get bitchy.

"What'cha up to?"

Maura backed up from a machine and turned around with a pissed off look. "I'm testing a blood sample, if it's alright with you. Can you give me a moment?" she asked. It was more of an order than a request.

"Um, sure," Jane said, feeling a little confused. Why she acting like she's got a stick up her ass?

After a moment, Maura turned away from the machine. She did something that was foreign to Jane. She ran her fingers through her hair and seemed… stressed?

"Maura, you know you can tell me anything, right?" Jane said, placing a gentile hand on the medical examiner's back.

Maura nodded. "yeah, I know. Thanks Jane" she said with a smile.

"So, you want to tell me what's going on?"

"I don't know if anything is going on. I just, have been feeling… odd these past few days"

"Well, when you find out what's going on, know I'm always there to listen" Jane said, encouragingly.

"Thanks, Jane"

Jane walked into the lobby of the Boston police building unnoticed by the two people there she was closest to; Maura and Frankie. She was about to say hello but she noticed they were having an important conversation. She could tell by the look on her brother's face that Maura was speaking science. Oddly enough, she could even pinpoint the exact moment Maura summed up her speech in English. Whatever they were talking about, it seemed important. She stayed where she was, unseen by the two. All of a sudden, Frankie engulfed Maura in a huge bear hug. A loving, protective hug. He buried his face in her golden locks as he rocked her back and forth. He broke the hug and but his hands on either side if her face. As her put his nose against hers, it was his turn to give a speech, to which Maura nodded vigorously. Afterwards, Jane's jaw dropped when she saw them kiss! Her baby brother gave her best friend a final hug as they caught their respective elevators. She saw Maura wipe away a tear of happiness. She decided it was time to pay her friend in the lab a little visit.

"Hey, Maur" Jane called out.

"Hey, Jane!" Maura said with a delighted face.

"So, what's up?"

"The NASDAQ stock it up 67.89, I nice rise from being down 79.54 just yesterday"

Jane laughed. "I meant with you" she said with a smile.

Maura wanted to say "Nothing". But as we all know, Maura isles an not lie.

"Ok, I have dome news, but I have to tell you in private. How's dinner sound?"

"Awful, you know how impatient I am"

"well, you going to have to wait"

"Mauuuurrraaaaa!" she whined. "Please?"

"Ughh! We were going to tell you together-"

"Who's we?"

"…"

"Maura…"

"Frankie and I were going to tell you that, well, we're dating."

"Ahah! Soo my little brother is your Mr. Texter?"

"Yes, and I'm pregnant."
