Later that evening after things calmed down at work Jane headed to her favorite release spot after work, The Dirty Robber. Jane walked in and headed to her usual booth. Noticing Maura had not arrived yet she went ahead and ordered her usual beer. Jane had not been sitting there too long before she saw Maura coming through the door. She looks especially stunning tonight was her first thought. Where the hell did that come from was her next thought.

"Hey Maur. How about some peanuts" she asked knowing her answer.

"I haven't had a chance to culture this week's stock so I'm not going to take a chance." Maura slid the dish of peanuts back over to Jane. The waitress serving their usual table brought Jane's beer and Maura's usual wine placing the correct drink to the correct drinker in front of them.

"When was the last time we were able to relax for a minute like this?" Jane was stretching her arms as wide as she could.

"It's been awhile. We haven't had much of a chance to catch up with each other with the last case and now this one going on."

"So how's the love life going?"

"Sex, yes. Love, no."

Jane about spit her beer across the table.

"I haven't seen Jason for about a week now. We broke up. He has pes planus. It wouldn't be a good trait to pass on to children."

"Hey Google-mouth. Normal people terms."

"Sorry. It means he has flat feet."

"Um. Okay."

"Anything for you my dear?"

That kinda sounded nice. "Nope. Luckily all the pez platypuses are staying away from me."

"Pes planus."

"Whatever."

Maura and Jane stayed for a while chit chatting and catching up on everything they had missed with each other over the past couple of weeks. The time was nearing 10 pm so Jane and Maura decided it would be a good time to call it a night and go home.

They headed back to the BPD where their cars were parked, linked arm-in-arm. Neither one realized they were having the same thought of this is comfortable. Reaching their cars they sat for a minute still chatting and after each said goodnight their eyes stayed locked together for an extra couple of seconds. Jane felt a small palpitation. What was that? Maura was able to tell something happened "are you okay Jane?"

"Yeah just a little lightheaded. Long day. I'm good though."

"Are you sure? I can take you to my place and you can stay the night so I can make sure you are ok."

Yes please. "No mother. Thank you though. I'll be fine. See you tomorrow."

"Goodnight Jane."

Each girl headed to their home both lost in their own thoughts. Jane was on her way home to her lovable Jo Friday. All the way home all she could think about was how beautiful the ME looked when she let loose and had a couple drinks. Then she couldn't stop thinking about how beautiful she was all the time. That has got to be the beer talking. Maura was on her way home to her lovable Bass. Maura couldn't stop thinking about their eyes locking before leaving. That was odd. At that moment she was so beautiful with her mussed hair. Something just made me want to run my hands through it. As Maura got out of her car she was only able to muse herself by saying those thoughts were from the wine even if she did only have two glasses.

The next couple days were quiet with the case of Julie Concord. Finally on Thursday they were able to get a hit in the computer. An abandoned vehicle was spotted and was processed. When it was processed it came up in the computer as Julie Concord's vehicle.

"Looks like we may have finally got something on our victim." Frost wheeled himself in front of his computer and started tapping away bringing the computer to life. As Frost brought up the information on the vehicle on the larger screen for all of them to see they were able to find out that the vehicle had been picked up on a street over in east Boston, an area known for drug activity. The vehicle was waiting in the impound lot. Seeing the information, Korsak got on the phone calling the impound lot and telling them it was part of an investigation and had them tow it to the evidence bay.


The first thing Jane had the CSU process on the vehicle was fingerprints. She waited impatiently in the wings as the technicians dusted the car. Finally she wandered up to a CSU guy and leaned over his shoulder, "What do you have Mark?"

"I'm working on it Rizzoli." He huffed.

"Well, my grandma can dust faster than you."

"You want this done correctly or not?"

"Yes, I want it done correctly and in this century if you don't mind."

"Alright, keep your pants on." He rolled his eyes as he finished his work, "It looks like we got three different sets of prints off the car."

Jane crossed her arms as she thought, "A professional would have wiped his prints from the car. You think this is an amateur?"

Jane looked back to Korsak. He countered, "Or our guy knows he is not in the system."

While the CSU continued processing the vehicle for finger prints Jane, Korsak, and Frost were giving the vehicle a once over. They noticed the rear bumper had taken noticeable damage like it had been rear ended. Luckily the vehicle that did the damage left some paint behind so hopefully the lab would be able to pin point it to a certain type of car.

The CSU finished processing the vehicle taking what evidence was found to the lab to be processed. The only thing Jane, Korsak, and Frost could do now was to wait for the results from the lab. Heading back inside the BPD Jane decided to break from the guys and head downstairs to see Maura.


Knocking on the door to Maura's office she waited for an answer but none came. She went inside and looked through the window into the morgue and saw Maura finishing up a case for the day. Maura waved at Jane giving her a hand signal saying she wouldn't be but a few more minutes. Jane smiled and gave a thumbs up and sat on the couch waiting for Maura to come in.

After finishing up Maura came in the office sitting on the couch opposite Jane. "So how is the Julie Concord case going?"

"Alright. I hope we can get a lead. Her car was found and we brought it in. It was processed and now all we are waiting on are the results from the lab on the evidence that was taken."

"Good. I'm sure this will be a step in the right direction." Maura got up and walked over to her desk grabbing a file and brought it back to the couch. "I'm glad you came down. I was planning on texting you when I was done to let you know I received the results of the DNA testing."

"Great." Jane started to get excited.

"Not great. No DNA was found when I did the rape kit."

"So we have a smart rapist, great."

"Not great."

"Sarcasm Maura."

"Oh. Well the DNA I was able to get from under Julie's fingernails did not get a hit in the database."

"So we have a smart rapist who has never been caught before."

"Well I know if anyone can catch this person I know you can do it." Maura reached over and put her and on Jane's knee leaving her hand for a few seconds longer then needed to get her point across. As soon as Maura took her hand back Jane was missing it.

To change the subject from the obvious awkwardness that now filled the office Jane asked "so when are we doing movie night?"

"How about tonight?"

"Your place or mine."

"I know you haven't been home much to clean so let's have it at my house."

"Come on Maur, my home will never be as immaculate as yours."

"No, it won't."

"Ok. Your place it is then. Your pick or mine."

"Yours. So don't make it too violent."

"You deal with blood every day so what difference does it make?"

"Because."

"Wow. I can't believe it. I finally got the great Dr. Isles stumped."

"Keep going and I'll pick the movie again." Maura smiled letting Jane know she wasn't being mean.

"No. Please. I don't think I could take Sense and Sensibility again." Jane feigned innocence while standing up to head on back to her apartment. "I'll see you at 8." As Jane turned around to head to her car to go home and get ready Maura slapped Jane's rear which caused her to jump and turn towards Maura. "What was that for?"

"I don't know. Just telling you to get a move on."

"Just remember Dr. Isles, paybacks are a bitch." Jane fake glared at Maura but let her smile show as she was turning around to try and head back out the door, again. Jane safely made it out the door and was headed upstairs in the elevator. All the way up to the lobby all Jane could think about is that she really wouldn't mind Maura trying that again.

Jane did everything she could so she could get home quickly and get ready for her date? Why am I thinking that this is a date? She loved movie night with Maura because it gave her time to just relax and enjoy her friend's company. Maybe she'll fall asleep on my shoulder again. Still not knowing where those thoughts were coming from she continued her drive home humming along to whatever was playing on the radio. Jane didn't even know what was playing on the radio. Korsak must have put it on the crappy oldies station again. She decided to switch the station to something more upbeat and I'm still humming…oh well.

When Jane got home she rushed up the stairs to her apartment. Opening the door and closing it hard behind her she startled Jo out of her sleep so much she almost fell off the couch. She gained her composure and sat back down on the couch staring at her owner like she was a crazy woman.

"Sorry girl. Didn't mean to scare ya. It's movie night tonight at Maura's. Wanna go see Bass?"

With that question Jo became almost as excited as her owner. She was ready to get out of the house and go see her friend but she couldn't understand why her owner was more excited than she was.

Jane headed over to her DVDs and perused her collection. Out of all these movies why can't I decide which one to take? She went over each one diligently looking for the right one. Silence of the Lambs? Nah. Too scary. The next one The Professional? Nope. Although it was weird seeing Natalie Portman as a child, hasn't changed much. Finally she came to the one she felt was just right. Good ole' Arnie. Can never go wrong with The Terminator.

Jane hurried and changed her clothes dressing in her comfy BPD sweatpants and a shirt she thinks she stole from Frankie. She put Jo on her leash, grabbed the movie, and headed on out the door to let Jo do her business before getting into the car. Jane started her car and pulled away from the curb ready to start one of her favorite traditions with Maura, movie night.
