How could Jane have just kissed her like that? What had she hoped to accomplish? One minute they are talking about life, and the next Jane had asked her if she believed in love at first sight. She was so taken back she had giggled. She knew she had hurt Jane's feelings but did not understand why. If only she had known. She thought back to the conversation.
"Why love at first sight?" she asked evenly.
"Oh I see, don't believe in that stuff huh?" Jane asked looking a little hurt.
"You're serious aren't you?"
"Very," Jane replied. She took Maura's hand in her own and began to explain what love felt like. And how she believed in soul mates.
"I know what a soul mate is. And I know how love feels. I don't need you to explain it," she said laughing."Scientifically speaking I'm not sure if I believe in a soul."
"I believe you're mine." There. Jane had said it. No more games. No more lies. Just truth. Now, would Maura play along was the question.
"You do," she replied, "and how did you come to that conclusion?"
"Simple," Jane said softly, "I love you. Do you love me?"
"What?" Maura asked caught off guard by this whole conversation.
"Tell me what you think about me, about us," Jane asked, "do you believe in us?"
"You wanted to see me," Jane asked. Maura had just been standing in her room office looking blankly ahead. Maura drifted back into reality and looked up to see Jane standing there.
"Thanks for coming down," she said softly.
"What's up?"
"We need to talk. I can't sleep till we get this somewhat straightened out," she said looking down at her feet, "you weren't having the same trouble."
"No. In fact I haven't slept better," Jane answered.
"Why did you do that yesterday, Jane?"
"Because I wanted to," Jane said flatly, "I've wanted to for a real long time."
"Oh," she said not expecting the truth.
"I am sorry I went about doing it the way I did, but I am not sorry for kissing you," she said taking Maura's her hand in her own.
"What do we do now?"
"Whatever we want. That is the beauty of it. It is out there now. I am tired of running from you. I am tired of running from my feelings," she said moving closer. Jane wrapped her arms around her and gave Maura a warm hug.
Maura felt her love.
"I do you know," Maura said leaning her head on Jane's shoulder.
"Do what?" she asked.
"Believe in you," she answered softly.
"Oh. I thought you were talking about…" Jane began to say. Maura cut her off my placing two fingers to her lips.
"And I do love you," Maura said, leaning forward she replaced her fingers with her lips.
Jane closed her eyes. She couldn't believe this was happening. It was too amazing, the feelings and sensations running through her body. It had been too long. Maura pulled away from Jane for a moment. She looked into Jane's eyes. "I'm the one you love? I'm the one you want?" It was a simple question and Jane knew it meant everything. Maura dealt with facts and numbers.
Jane closed her eyes and nodded her head. The sensation of Maura in her arms was overwhelming. Heart racing, Jane smiled and opened her eyes. She let out a soft cry and said, "I've loved you for so long Maura."
How could Maura deny Jane? How could she turn away, when deep down she knew she felt the same.
Maura's heart raced as she looked into Jane's loving and adoring eyes. "Please forgive me Jane, for not seeing it sooner. I was so confused. I didn't mean to hurt you. I would never want to hurt you," Maura said touching her cheek.
She could feel the warmth radiating there. Jane felt tears creep down the side of her face. Maura wiped them and continued, "I've always know what was in my heart Jane. I was just too afraid to face it. I'm not scared anymore. I know who I want and what I want. If you'll still have me that is?" Maura asked. Maura was so close to Jane now, Jane could feel her warm breath on her lips.
The kiss was unlike any either woman had experienced before. It sent a shock through both of them "Don't leave," Jane said pulling Maura's lips to her own for a kiss.
"It's you. It's always been you." Maura whispered. "I'm through running from my feeling. I'm through running from you Jane. I want this more than I've ever wanted anything."
A wave of desire surrounded her as the never known such pleasure of being with someone you love surfaced. There was nothing to do but surrender.
"Let's get out of here," Jane said looking around the office, realizing for the first time they'd just declared their love for each other at the station. "Walls have ears here."
"Let's go home," Maura said taking Jane's hand.
Closing the door behind them to Jane's apartment, Maura could only moan softly with the feeling of Jane's hands touching her. Every ounce of her was on fire for Jane Rizzoli.
Maura's hands began to explore Jane's side. Jane's own soft moans encouraged her exploration. Jane could feel her legs go weak under Maura's touches. It was both amazing and moving and Jane never knew she could feel like this.
Moving to the bed, they leaned back as their bodies connected completely for the first time, in such an intimate way. The complete contact between the two sent shocks of pleasure to places that lay dormant. Breathing ragged as lips sought out lips and hands sought out curves. Maura's hands explored every inch and beautiful angle of Jane's lean long body. She wanted to memorize all the placed that brought this woman pleasure, wanted to study her.
Clothing was tossed aside. Now, it was about pure pleasure derived from love. Each woman wanted to give and receive.
"Oh Jane," Maura moaned as Jane lowered her head to Maura's exposed breasts, "yes…that feels so good."
Jane herself, was full of longing. She wanted this to be perfect for both of them, craving and yearning for Maura's touch. She moved back up Maura and nipped at her lips, and as they parted, Maura matched her kiss her kiss. The fever between the two was out of control. It was as if months of pent of sexual tension was being released in one night and they loved it. Want.
That's what this was.
Pure want.
Maura rolled Jane over and now was on top. There was no retreat from this passionate embrace, and both women knew it. Maura rocked against Jane. Jane's soft moans expressed to Maura the urgency. This moment would not be a slow loving night of passion…this would be fast and heated and earth shattering.
Jane gave in to the tender motion. Her body shivered, leaving no doubt that she was Maura's completely and utterly. Tonight there would be no doubts. Each woman had something to say, and they were going to say it loud and clear.
Maura moved into Jane, their hips thrusting and fingers caressing. Words of love and endearment mixed regularly with cries of passion. Maura felt Jane's breath become ragged, as she too was close to experiencing this plea for want.
"Look at me Jane," Maura said moving into her. Jane opened her eyes. "I want to see you," Maura said. It was coming now, and she could feel Jane below her.
"Oh God Maura…yes!" Jane moaned out going over the boundary of time and space.
"Yes Jane, yes!" Maura called out along side of her, every nerve in her body tingling. They kept moving, afraid to stop. Grinding, and loving, and kissing. Finally, their passion spent, at least temporarily, the pair rested in comfortable silence as the cool breeze from the open window blew in and caressed their sweat sheered bodies.
"That was amazing," Maura said smiling, her arm wrapped around Jane's waist.
"Amazing indeed," Jane laughed.
"I love you Maura," Jane said again.
"I love you too Jane," Maura smiled.
"You're so beautiful," Maura said holding on tighter than before. "And I never want to let you go."
The End
