Third story. I noticed I write to fast and leave out details that should be there. I really wasn't trying too hard on those stories, but I can prove that I can now. I will need to practice this so I am writing snippet stories for ideas. It will be rated T. Sorry, nothing against it, it's just that I can't write something like that yet, however, I can insinuate something... So, if you guys have ideas, let me know. I am going to pick five, making this a six chapter story. The chapters will be short and very unrelated to each other.

When Jane was a beat cop, she had a run in with a med student from Boston Cambridge. She didn't really think much on it, until this day and time. She didn't ask for her last name, just the first one. Jane really should have realized it sooner than she had. It was the gleam in those hazel eyes that really knocked Jane down a few pegs. She remembered that gleam. Some detective she was huh? As she spoke with the woman in front of her, her mind wandered to the place and time they met the first time.

It all began as a joke really. Jane had made a reference at the precinct that she had received and acceptance letter from Boston Cambridge. The other cops laughed and called her out on 'bullshit'. However, Jane didn't budge on her stance and when Korsak, the man she cared for that was in homicide vouched for her, she gave them a big grin.

"It's all in the system about our Jane Rizzoli here. She is clean as a whistle and was accepted to BCU." So this is where Jane is now, on a beat she normally wouldn't have. She was by BCU and was currently on foot as she patrolled the streets. She was all smiles though. There was a murder there a few days before so she got to see the CSI unit along with Homicide at their finest. That was her goal, to be in Homicide. She saw herself there until the day she died. Just like Korsak was going to be. She looked up to the older man.

While she was on her beat, Jane was strolling leisurely down the street when she spotted a blonde girl stepping into the street. She looked both ways three times. Good, at least someone does it Jane thought with a smile. Jane noticed the woman's attire. It was fancy and designer (don't ask how she knows), meaning she probably has a lot of money, especially since she had medical books in her hand. If she was in pre-med or med school, she would be very intelligent. Since she had those books, she was possibly in school and went to BCU, confirming that the girl had money. Jane would be a detective in no time.

Jane couldn't resist asking the woman if her theories were correct. So, she walked over to her and stepped in time with her. The woman looked up at her curiously.

"Sorry, I am a police officer and I just wanted to ask a few questions." The woman nodded, with her smile gleaming.

"Okay, so I want to be a detective, particularly a homicide detective and I was testing my skills on you. Sorry 'bout that. So…here are my questions. First what is your first name? Two, are you intelligent? Three are you a medical student? And four are you wealthy? You know what disregard that last question it was inappropriate." She cringed.

"Alright, I said I would answer your questions. My name is Maura. I am intelligent. My IQ suggests I am a genius. Yes, I am one of the youngest to enter medical school, and I will answer your last one. Yes, I come from a wealthy family. Now, how could you tell all of that?" Jane didn't expect her to question her at all. It took her by surprise.

"Well, you go to BCU, the way we are walking suggests you are headed that way, so you had to have a little money to go there. Plus the fact is your clothes, they are tailored and designer, don't ask me how I know, then you have those books which confirms the school theory and your intelligence." She felt rather proud of herself.

"Hm, you'll make detective in no time Officer…" Jane mentally slapped herself.

"Rizzoli. Officer Jane Rizzoli." Maura handed her a business card.

"Call me sometime Officer Rizzoli." Jane completely stopped her walking as the woman disappeared into the building. She never did call that number.

So back to the present, her ma had set her up on speed dating for gay women. Turns out, this woman across from her, the Chief Medical Examiner of the Common Wealth of Massachusetts, does it to meet new faces and make friends with them, not relationships.

"You're Maura, our ME, and the med student from years back aren't you?" Jane said simply. Why didn't she realize it until now?

"I am, I see you made it to homicide. That's good. From what I hear, they are happy to have you….what did he say, on board. What made you remember" Jane smirked just a little and shook her head.

"That gleam in your eye." Maura hazel eyes snapped back to her dark ones.

"Gleam?" she questioned. Jane nodded.

"But now that I look back, I can see the resemblance. You hair is darker though, but the eyes are the same, the nose is the same, lips are the same. You just grew into your body."

"So, you never did call me, or tell me how you knew about designer clothes." Jane swallowed hard.

"I—sorry bout that. I was being promoted left and right until I was the youngest woman to enter homicide. Then the surgeon, which I am sure you know about." Maura nodded, indicating she knew. That's why Jane was wearing leather gloves tonight. The scars on her hands.

"Between you and me, someone as a joke subscribed me to a designer clothing magazine. I uh, skim through the pages." Maura let out a laugh and shook her head.

"Well, do you still have that magazine?" Jane nodded sipping on some water.

"Hey, lady. It's my turn with her. Your time is up." Jane looked up to see an incredibly manly woman standing over her. Jane looked at Maura and back at the woman.

"As you wish." She got up and waved to Maura and mouthed something to her. Maura nodded and got up.

"Sorry uh…"she looked at the woman's name tag. "Suzy, but I was just about to leave. Goodbye. Jane, shall we?" Jane looked up at Maura.

"Yes Maura." Jane followed Maura out, leaving behind the group of disappointed woman.

"Want to get a burger Jane?" Jane squealed and grabbed her hand.

"Yes, where have you been all my life?" Jane teased.

"Africa. Doctors without Borders." Jane looked at her shocked.

"That is quite the accomplishment there doc. But I meant that rhetorically." Maura nodded, albeit, a little embarrassed.

Jane knew she could trust Maura, because Maura was an extremely sincere person. She took off her right glove and slipped her hand into Maura's. Maura was taken back. Jane had taken off her glove to hold her hand? As far as Maura knew, Jane never let anyone touch her hands. This meant more to Maura than Jane thought.

"Thank you Jane." Jane looked down at the shorter woman curiously, "For letting me hold your hand." Jane looked at her, getting how much it truly meant to her and intertwined their fingers. At this closer contact, Maura could feel the hypertrophic scar on Jane's hand. She knew this was a big step of trust for Jane and she truly appreciated it.

"The Dirty Robber, a cop's bar has very good food there." Jane said, wanting to break the silence. Jane walked her all the way to the Robber and smiled as she opened the door.

"Not really ideal for a first date, but neither was speed dating." Maura laughed and sat at a booth with Jane. She sat down across from her and rested her clasped hands on the table top. The waitress came sooner rather than later because she had a crush on Jane.

"What can I get ya ladies." She asked, with a heavy Bostonian accent. Jane nearly giggled. She knew this girl liked her.

"Well, what would you suggest." She asked, not looking away from Maura. Maura noticed her gaze and blushed.

"It doesn't matter, you'll order your usual anyway." Jane laughed pleasantly and ordered her usual.

"And for you ma'am?" she asked Maura. Maura ordered the Caesar salad and weird vinaigrette that Jane has never heard of before.

"I had a wonderful time Jane. Could we do this again?" Maura asked. Jane nodded.

"I didn't think I would enjoy tonight, but you proved that wrong." Jane said with a smile. Maura's eyes dropped to her lips and back up to her eyes. Jane knew what Maura wanted but, she wouldn't give it to her. When Maura leaned in to kiss her, Jane pulled away with a smile.

"I don't kiss on the first date, gotta leave mystery now don't we?" Maura laughed and gave her a hug instead.

"Yes, mystery is good."
