Summary: A series of random drabbles focused on Jane and Maura's friendship. No pairing. Drabbles not related to each other.

A/N: This is my first time at writing R&I. I'm not sure it could be considered Rizzles or not, so it's up to you guys decide. I hope all of you like it.


Drabble #1

Based on and set after 3x7 'Crazy for you'

"I was scared. I thought I was going to lose you."

Maura was the first to break the heavy silence that had settled.

At hearing the words that left her friend's mouth Jane took the doctor's hands in her own in the vain attempt of reassuring the smaller woman she wasn't going anywhere.

"You are not going to lose me, Maur."

"You can't be sure of that, Jane, and we both know it, but I-I"

The ME took a necessary pause to collect her thoughts and feelings and put them in order, before being able to speak once more.

"Do you have any idea of how much you mean to me?"

The detective kept herself silence letting the other woman take everything out.

"You are my best friend, yes, but you're also my family, Jane. I don't want to lose that"

Once Maura was finally finished all Jane could think of doing was embrace her best friend and try to comfort her, and it was exactly what she did.

"That's not happening, okay? You just said it right now, we're family. You're stuck with me for the rest of your life. I'm not going anywhere."

The brunette whispered, trying to convince both Maura and herself. And if only for a moment the doctor let herself believe in it.

"You promise?"

"I promise"
