Okay, I am really sorry about the lack of updates. Anyway, this might be the last update for a while, since I am going to visit my family next week and so much to do in so little time so here it is.

"Maura, I know that you are mad, but the phone call...it was from Hoyt."

"What did he want?" Maura asked without taking her eyes off the road.

"He 'claims' that he can help with this investigation."

"And do you believe him, Jane?" Maura asked while looking at her and sitting at a red light.

"Not one bit." Once they reached HQ, they head to Maura's office when Maura speaks again.

"Hoyt thinks he's in control."

"Uh, isn't he?" Jane asked.

"No. We show him we're in control, we take what little control he thinks he has away."

"I'm gonna talk to the bastard." Jane said.

"No, you're not."

"Now are you going to tell me how to run my cases?"

"I am." Jane turns around and Lieut. Cavanaugh is standing there. "In my office Detective."

Jane leaves to follow him. Jane sits down.

"Come on! I know Charles Hoyt better than anybody. I know his psyche, I know his MO." Jane said.

"You are not the lead investigator on this. You sit on your hands, you hear me?" Cavanaugh said.

"I caught him, okay? I caught him twice!"

"That's the problem! We're about to go to trial for four cases of first-degree murder. That son of a bitch killed nine people that we know of. He stabbed your old partner and almost killed you! Twice!"

"Which is exactly why I am staying on this case!"

"Don't interrupt me!" Cavanaugh said. Jane took a deep breath before her temper got the best of her.

"That's why your not. Hoyt made you a victim. You're not a cop right now and you better face that. You can go." Jane gets up and leaves and heads to the cafe. Maura is sitting there.

"Hey, how did your meeting go with Cavanaugh?" Jane kisses her forehead and sits down next to her.

"You need to talk to Hoyt." Jane said.

"What?"

"You are the only person I know who can break him down for me. Please?" Jane gave Maura a look on her face that she can't say no to.

"Okay, fine. I'll do it." Jane pecks her lips.

"Thank you."

"But when I am done, we have to start planning the wedding." Maura said.

"Okay."

The IPS had Hoyt inside their van. Maura sat in the interrogation room when the IPS were bringing in Hoyt with a black sheet over his head.

"I smell lavender and fear." When the IPS took off the sheet, Hoyt was smiling then when he saw Maura sitting there, he just kept smiling.

"Hello Mr. Hoyt." Hoyt just laughs.

"Dr. Isles. You must be very proud of yourself. That's a play I didn't see."

"Mr. Hoyt-" Maura says then gets interrupted.

"I usually ask people to address me as 'doctor.'" Maura raised her eyebrow.

"I nearly completed medical school."

"That's why you are precised when you severe the carotid arteries of your victims."

"Well, I've always been quite depth with a scalpel."

Maura reaches for her scalpel in her bag.

"Officer, hold him down in the chair." Maura gets up and walks over to him.

"Are you going to show me your technique?" Hoyt asked.

Maura leans down and opens his prison jumper and cuts the stitching inside the jumper.

"50/50 cotton polyester blend with fabric that shows every wrinkle after a lot of use." Maura stands back up and walks back to her chair and sits back down.

"Thank you officers." After two hours of talking to Hoyt and taping him, Maura heads upstairs to find Jane. Jane is sitting at her desk and turns around when she hears Maura.

"Oh God, you're alright." Jane hugs her.

"Yes, Jane I am alright. Come on, I want to show you the tape."

"Hey, when you're done, there's a body that needs to be checked." Maura started to smile.

"You got the body? How?"

"While you were meeting with the bastard, Korsak sent your team to pick her up and brought back here." Maura kissed her.

"Thank you." While watching the tape, Jane noticed a change in Maura.

"You okay? Come on, Maura, talk to me. He's a freak. He gets to everybody." Jane said.

"I didn't - I did a lot of research into his background; his childhood. Maybe he's not wrong."

Jane gives her a confused look. "What are you talking about?"

"Maybe I am a little bit like him." Maura said.

"You are nothing like him."

"I don't - I don't know, Jane. I was a weird kid."

"Were you killing small animals?" Jane asked.

"No, but I dissected a lot of frogs." Maura said while laughing.

"That's different."

"I just started to think about things that I never really thought about before."

"Here it comes. There are bodies buried in your basement."

"I spent a lot of time alone. You know I was adopted, my father was a professor and my mother she - she came from a wealthy family and was an only child. I just realized something when I was reading about Hoyt. It just never occurred to be before. There was a lot of benign neglect. It's not that they didn't love me. It's just that I didn't ask for much. I don't think I really knew how, and the less that I would ask for the less time that they have for me. They were just very, very involved in their own lives and into each other. They were delighted. I was really lost."

"Come here." Jane takes Maura's hands into her own.

"No matter what happened to you, you are nothing like that monster, okay? You're a little anti-social maybe, goofy, but that's not the same thing. I love you for who you are." Jane said than kisses her forehead.

"Thank you. Now I have a body to check." Jane rolls her eyes.

"But if you behave," Maura leans over to Jane's ear, "You will get a reward tonight."

Maura kisses Jane's cheek and walks away smirking.
