Ok peeps, have realized I've messed up a bit on structure, grammar etc. I am endeavoring to improve both so the story flows.

I'm sorry about the double chapter 1 entry. I am totally flying by the seat of my pants here so there may be problems. Keep letting me know though please.

Thanks for the reviews and alerts, very sweet comments thank you.

I obviously do not own the Rizzles storyline, Sarah Alexander, Angie Harmon or the show itself because if I did we would cease with the blatant subtext and just allow them to be together.

I am gonna try and update this as soon as it is written, fingers crossed it works because this and my body of proof one are my first fanfics so I am flying a wee bit blind.

So if all goes well this should flow a lot better than first chapter, if I figured out how to update it.

And please feel free to tell me what you think; good, bad and ugly.

And I'm sorry about the pov switches; I will make that a lot clearer from now on.

And .raven, I really haven't a Scooby doo where the story is going yet but I'm a bit of a Disney chick so love will almost certainly prevail ;) x

Chapter 2

Jane's POV

So Maura's been harassing the doctors and nurses eh? Interesting. It's always Maura right there in my corner fighting the good fight with me. And by all accounts she has been here almost 24/7 by my bedside, holding my hand, checking my wound and generally being a pain in the ass to get any and all information about my progress. It always made me smile when I thought about Maura taking on the world for me, hell it made me smile just thinking about Maura. "Queen of the Dead" the other officers and detectives had monikered her but they had no idea how warm and caring Dr Maura Isles was. How principled and disciplined she was. How beautiful and loving she was. How the smaller woman had tried to protect me from Hoyt and from every other boogeyman that would haunt my dreams. The doc really was the most endearing person I have ever met. With her cute Google speak, her inability to lie and her unwillingness to give an educated guess it really was only a matter of time before I fell in love with her. Oh yeah you heard me right, my best friend of 2 years, who saved my brothers life, the woman who put a roof over my ma's head when her and pa broke up, who put a roof over my head when Hoyt was loose and trashed my apartment is in fact the love of my life.

Ok so I know how I feel about her and I know that I want to take the next step with Maura but I have no idea how my declaration of love would go down with her so the time isn't right to just blurt it out. Not without warning, not without building up to it first. I will woo her….ha-ha. I've never wooed anyone in my life (even the 2 women I have been with had wooed me). I will make my intentions clear to Maura slowly but surely, measured but transparent. So there is no doubt of my feelings and intentions towards our good doctor.

"So how's my favourite detective doing?" Maura sang as she glided into the room.

"Absolutely awesome thanks Doc" Jane replied, dripping with sarcasm.

"Really, that's good news, glad to see you're on the mend" she said smiling. Almost missing the sarcasm but suddenly catching herself "Oh very funny, sarcasm. Really Jane. You must be feeling well enough if you still want to take a high out of me"

"Rise Maura, it's take a rise out of you" Jane offered through raised eyebrow. Unable to keep the smile from her face.

"Are you comfortable? Do you need anything?" Maura asked with pleading eyes. While fluffing up Jane's pillows and tidying up her bedside table. Please let me do something, let me help in some way, let me stay with you forever so nothing like this ever happens to you again.

"I'm fine Maur, just sore and bored. The nurse is going to fix the sore. Can you think of a way me could fix the bored?" Oh my god, I'm flirting….with Maura. She's going to be so embarrassed. Come on Jane, think of a save.

"Well I think physical pursuits are out of the question, for the time being" Maura whispered into Jane's ear as she continued to fix her pillows. Brushing her cheek on Jane's as she got back up. "However I do believe we're in the middle of a chess match, which I am winning may I add"

And there it was, that moment again. That moment where time stood still. I could swear that Maura was flirting with me and then as suddenly as it arrived it was gone again, leaving me with more questions than answers and an insane fluttering in my chest and a warmth between my legs. "That's a shame, I could really benefit from the healing properties of physical activity" Jane countered, watching for a response from the red haired doctor. Finding none she carried on. "But if you are up for continuing our game I will gladly wipe the floor with your pretty little ass" Now that's the response I was looking for. A flash of recognition from those beautiful green eyes and a subconscious stroking of her skirt which was hugging her hips oh so perfectly.

Oh my what was that? That pounding inside my chest and dampness in my pants. First I flirt without realizing the words are coming out of my mouth. Then she flirts back, even complimenting a part of my anatomy that a 'friend' should not be noticing. Could it be Jane feels the same way about me? No of course not Maura calm down your breathing, focus, it's Jane, she flirts. "Alright then it's settled, I'll retrieve the chess board from my house and be back in two quivers" Maura said, not looking into Jane's eyes as she tried to gain some composure and retrieve her bag and long coat.

"Two... shakes ...Maura" Jane replied in fits of laughter. "You're so cute, you know that. How you can be super smart Mensa brain but mix up some really simple phrases"

"Well on that note if there is nothing else that you need I'll take my cute, pretty little ass out of here and be back in two shakes Jane" Maura said leaving the room feeling a combination of embarrassment and arousal.

Jane watched Maura leave, shaking her pretty little ass all the way out of the recovery suite and into the elevators.
