"I guess we made some pretty good time today huh?" Jane said looking at the dashboard. It was almost 9:30 p.m. and both women were getting tired.

"Yeah we did. How about we start to look for a place to pull over? Sound okay to you?"

"I thought you'd never ask," Jane smiled.

"Oh god I haven't heard this song in ages!" Jane said turning up the radio. "Boy this takes me back to middle school."

"Middle school?"

"Yeah well the original versions, not this shaggy remix." Jane said smiling. She looked at Maura. "Come on you know the words!"

Maura laughed watching Jane singing along "Baby, I'm hot just like an oven, I need some loving! Baby I can't hold it much longer. It's getting stronger and stronger." Jane giggled and then continued, "When I get that feeling I want sexual healing, sexual healing makes me feel so fine…helps to relief my mind. Sexual healing is good for us."

"God what a name for a song," Maura smiled. "Sexual healing."

"Hey whatever heals right?"

"Right."

"Besides," Jane said getting serious, "it's more a physical healing…like not just emotional but also that touch we get that heals us."

Maura looked at Jane. "Wow- listen to psych you. Psych 101 here," Maura smiled.

"Yeah I know. I paid attention in class contrary to what the nuns say." Just pulled the mustang in front of the motel. They grabbed some of their bags and got out of the car. "God I hope we can get a room," Maura said looking around.

They walked into the lobby of the hotel. "Hi- can we get a room."

The woman behind the counter smiled at Maura. She smiled. This time the smile was different, almost flirtatious. Maura noticed this woman body language change. "Are you alone?" she asked smiling.

Maura was about to answer when Jane walked forward, and she looked slightly jealous. "No…she's with me."

"She's with you?"

"Yes. She's with me."

'Whoa wait a second…what is she doing?' Maura wondered. Was Jane being territorial?

"I'm sorry. Let me see what we have for you two." She typed some things into her computer. "Hum- well it's good news or bad news- depending on how you look at it."

"What?" Maura asked. All she wanted to do was get to a room and get laid. Err lay down. Laid down. My she was tired.

"Well we're completely full except one room."

"What's wrong? Is it a smoking room?" Jane asked. 'Just who the hell did this lady think she was. Hello? She was practically throwing herself at Maura. How rude!'

"Not smoking. It's the err…honey moon suite."

"Oh. Well…" Maura looked at Jane.

"We'll take it!" Jane said putting her hand over Maura's. "I'll pay the difference this time."

"Oh no- I'll charge you the regular room rate," the woman said. "Here you go. Here are your keys. It's the 15th floor, down the hall to the left. You'll be able to recognize it right away. It has a double door entrance."

"Excellent. Thank you for your help," Jane said taking the key.

"It was nice meeting you ladies," the woman said smiled. "It was nice meeting you too," Maura said smiling.

"Okay Maura let's go," Jane said pulling her arm.

"Jane!" Maura said once they got into the elevator. "What the hell was that about?" Maura asked. She was partial mad, and at the same time she found it somewhat funny. She'd never really seen Jane get jealous.

"What? I don't know what you're talking about?" Jane said pushing the button.

"She's with me…with me…Do you realize now what she thinks?"

"Yeah, so."

"So that doesn't bother you?" Maura asked crunching her forehead. She was losing this battle.

"Not one bit," Jane smiled. BING. The doors opened and they girls walked out. Maura had lost the battle but she would win the war.

"You're enjoying this aren't you?" Maura asked smiling.

"Yup."

They opened the door to their room. "Wow!" Jane said looking around. "This place is huge!"

"Wow," Maura said smiling. "It is really nice."

"Look, wine!" Jane shouted playfully. Maura watched her friend as she ran around the room. "Holy crap check out this frickin' bed! Ma would flip."

Maura came around and saw the bed. It was shaped in the form a heart. "Oh god Maura, this is silk…so are the sheets!"

"I love silk sheets," Maura said tossing herself on the bed.

"This is so great!"

"Oh my God, they have a hot tub in here!" Jane called from the bathroom. Maura stood and went into the room. Again, the hot tub was shaped like a heart.

"How very cute," Maura smiled.

"Let's use the hot tub!"

"Okay," Maura laughed. "I'll get my suit."

"Cool. I'll get mine."

"Ahh- Maura."

"Yeah"

"There are mirrors above the bed."

Maura walked back in and looked up at the ceiling. "You're kidding me."

"Nope. This place just keeps getting more fun by the minute!" Jane shouted as Maura burst out laughing.

After all the hours of driving, the hot tub felt wonderful. The girls sat in opposite sides of the heart bumps, but their feet were pretty close together near the hearts bottom. Every now and then, a leg would brush up against another.

"God this feels wonderful," Jane said.

"Yeah it does," Maura agreed. "A must have for future rooms."

"Soooo agreeing with you right now," Jane said from behind closed eyelids.

"So we'll be in Canada tomorrow."

"Cool."

"Let's go to the Ripley's believe it or not wax museum."

"They have one of those there."

"Yeah," Maura said behind her own closed eyelids. What she didn't know was Jane had opened hers and was now watching Maura. "I guess it's like one of the oldest ones. How I know this…well I'm just full of useless knowledge. I am…Google woman," Maura said laughing.

"Maura."

"Yeah?"

"I'm sorry if I acted inappropriately tonight in the lobby."

"It's okay," Maura said opening her eyes and watching Jane. "I understand…at least I think I do. I mean you were uncomfortable."

"I…I just didn't like her flirting with you."

"You didn't?" Maura asked. She had apparently read the situation wrong. She thought Jane had been uncomfortable because it was a woman hitting on her.

"Yeah- I think I got jealous."

"Don't be, you're still my girl," Maura smiled. Jane took in the sensation and smiled back. She slowly made her way closer to Maura. Maura didn't see this; her eyes had been once again closed.

BZZZZZZZZZ

Both girls jumped. 'You've got to be kidding me!' Jane thought. "I'll get it," she said grabbing a towel and getting out of the tub. She opened the door. The front desk clerk came in wheeling two covered plates and a bottle of champagne.

"On the house," she said smiling at Jane. "I'm sorry for hitting on your girlfriend. I didn't know she was with someone. I hope you won't say anything to my manager. We're not supposed to be flirtatious with the guests."

"No problem."

"She is a beautiful woman you know?"

"Yeah I know," Jane smiled.

"How long have you two…you know?"

"Oh about a year," Jane said. She picked up the cover and smelt the spaghetti. "This smells wonderful."

"Well enjoy. Oh…and here," she handed Jane a roll of quarters, "we give this to all the guests for their honeymoon….it's for the bed."

"The bed vibrates?"

"Oh yeah, and believe me, it turns the heat up big time. We're talking a whole new level of foreplay for you two."

"Great. Thanks."

"Oh and," she leaned in, "it's a guarantee for a multiple if you know what I mean."

"Multiple?" Jane asked confused. The woman winked. "Oh yeah. Okay. Well…he-he…thanks. Have a nice night." Jane turned around and saw Maura standing there, wrapped in a towel, her mouth hanging open.

"You're kidding me right!" Maura said, hands on hips.

"What? What?" Jane asked…she was totally caught off guard. "What'd you hear?"

"Food. You ordered us food!" Maura smiled and walked to the tray. "Yum."

"Huh?"

"What?" Maura asked confused. "Why do you look like you're about to freak on me?"

"I'm not. I'm not going to freak on you. Who's freaking? Not me…see cool and calm."

"Right," Maura smiled. "Champagne too. You'd think we would have learned our lesson from last time huh?"

"You'd think," Jane smiled. 'Thank god she didn't hear anything.'

"Okay let's change and we'll eat. I'm starving."

"Good plan," Jane said grabbing her clothes, "I'll let you change here and I'll go into the bathroom."

"Okay," Maura smiled. Jane made her way into the bathroom.

"What the hell was that?" she mumbled. She walked to the mirror and watched her own reflection. "What am I doing?" She threw on her t-shirt and boxers. "I almost kissed her for god's sake. I can't…I can't keep doing this to her or myself. It's just not fair."

"Jane?" Maura called out from behind the door.

"Yeah?"

"You okay in there?"

"Sure, I'll be out in just a second."

"Okay. Just checking."

Jane looked at her reflection. "Just what am I supposed to do. I mean talk about jealous boyfriend type…could I have been any more immature in front of that woman? And lying. I lied. I lied and I'm so not proud of that," Jane whispered to herself. She opened the door and went out to the LR room area where Maura sat on the couch watching TV.

"Good news," Maura smiled, "Cannibal Stewardess Vixens starts in 10 minutes," she said laughing.

"What?" Jane asked.

"Cannibal…vixen...porn…never mind. You okay?" Maura asked not getting a little concerned.

"Maura," Jane smiled and sat down next to her friend, "I've got to tell you something."

"Shoot."

"I lied to you."

"you did?"

"Yeah…I didn't order that food. That model in the lobby did. She…she came up here to apologize to me for flirting with you in the lobby."

"Oh," Maura said. "It's okay."

"No- it gets worse."

"Worse?"

"Yeah- I told her we'd been dating for a year and then one thing led to another and I got sex quarters, and I just feel really bad," Jane started running on at the mouth.

"Sex quarters?" Maura asked confused.

"Yeah…quarters for the bed."

"We have a vibrating bed?" Maura asked smiling.

"Yeah- but…I mean you're not mad at me? Didn't you hear anything I told you?"

"Yeah, it's fine. I'm not mad. I'm glad you told me the truth though," Maura smiled. "I always want you to tell me the truth," she assured Jane.

"Thanks Maura."

"You're welcome," she smiled. "Now about that porn bet."

"You're kidding me right?"

"No no no…I believe a wager is in hand."

"Okay- fine. I bet you…hum…what should we bet?" Jane asked.

"Whatever you want," Maura smiled.

Jane considered a moment. "Okay I bet you a 20 minute backrub that you don't last the whole movie!"

"Deal!" Maura said. She and Jane shook on it.

"Okay…let the games begin."
