Epiphany
Chapter 1: Jane´s point of view
It was just another day in the office for Jane Rizzoli. The Boston fall was on the brink, just in time for the holiday season to present itself. Jane was somehow always looking forward to work these days. Maybe it was because she has started to feel very comfortable in her line of work as of recently. A shift had occured in her. She had had an epiphany recently; her work mattered to her so much that she would be willing to die for it. Yes, she had always thought that this was how she really felt about her choice of career. But now she knew that it hadn`t been quite true until now. She felt strongly that her devotion to her work held an importance to society and to herself that was impossible to weigh, count or measure in any way. It was mere passion she understood now.
Lost in thought, sitting at her desk, she was awoken by the greeting of Dr. Maura Isles. "Good morning, Jane", the blonde said smiling in a red, tight dress that hugged Mauras curves in all the right places. "Good morning, Dr. Isles!", she greeted back shocked at how happy her higher than normal, but still raspy voice sounded. This was not like her, being so happy early in the AM. Jane was puzzled at her own reaction to seeing the blonde. "Somebodys happy today, did you meet someone nice last night?" Maura teased. Last night was kind of a blur to Jane, she couldn´t recall anyhting in particular about last night, other than ordering a pizza and staying in watching TV alone after work. Maura´s red lips opened softely and turned into an adorable white smile. "I… I… No." Jane stammered. Before she could say anything else, her phone rang. It was her mother, asking if she and Maura would be up for dinner tonight.
