Chapter 4
By the time Jane and Maura got back to the table Anthony was getting up out of his seat and putting on his jacket.
"Hey where are you going? I wasn't gone that long," Jane said sitting down. "Did you order the scallops?"
Anthony placed his hand over his mouth and rubbed his goatee. "Actually, no. I.. Uh, gotta leave Babe."
Jane's entire body relaxed with relief, "What why?" she asked, feigning disappointment.
"Uh…" Anthony looked away towards the door and then back at Jane, "Man, your brother is gonna kill me for this."
Jane looked over at Frost and his face was straight… Almost too straight.
"What's going on?" Jane asked Frost.
He cleared his throat and nodded his head, "Your date picked up someone else while you were in the bathroom." He said so matter of factually.
"Someone else?"
"Yeah, some random hot blond who just so happened to have been leaving out."
"No, that's not how it happened. I know her, and we were talking and she invited me to her party."
Jane glanced up at Maura and suppressed a smile, "Oh okay." She said looking down at her menu.
Anthony knelt down beside Jane and tried to kiss her on the cheek, but she retracted. "Don't be mad, Babe. I mean, we could still hook up later. Just text me."
"Okay. I'm not mad," She flashed him a bright smile and patted him on the shoulder, "I hope you have a wonderful time tonight."
Anthony smiled and left with a quickness, leaving Jane sitting there with Maura and Frost.
"Are you okay?" Maura asked softly, reaching over the table and grabbing her hand.
"Yes, I'm fine. He saved me the trouble." She laughed and they all started laughing around the table.
"I swear; I must be the luckiest man alive right now." Frost said leaning back in his chair. "I'm on a date with two smoking hot women who are all mine tonight."
Maura chuckled and swatted him on the arm. "Stop it."
He laughed and pointed to the menus, "Order so we can eat and go party."
His enthusiasm was definitely catching. Now that she was rid of Anthony, Jane couldn't see anything standing in her way of having a great time tonight. She couldn't wait for the car ride over to the party. Riding in Frost's sexy car made her feel frisky as hell, especially with Maura riding beside her.
"What are you having?" Jane asked Maura.
Maura gazed down at her menu and mused a few more moments. Jane became aware of the fact that Maura hadn't let go of her hand yet, and hers just rested comfortably in Maura's palm. Jane's eyes darted over to Frost who smiled approvingly. She wasn't sure who was working harder to get her and Maura together tonight, her or Frost.
"I'm going to have the butter poached Maine lobster with braised Belgium endive, walnut polenta, and grapefruit reduction."
"Yum. That sounds delicious." Jane said eyeing her menu. "I'm going to have the Roasted Amish chicken with Périgord truffle, herb spaetzle, with winter vegetables."
"Mmm, that sounds delicious too, Jane. May I taste some of yours?" Maura cooed, her voice lowering just a tad to really bring home the fact that her statement had double meaning and she wanted Jane to be certain of it.
Jane's lips slowly turned up into a wicked grin and her eyes narrowed. She winked, letting Maura know that she got the point. She glanced over at Frost who thankfully missed the exchange completely. He was fumbling in his pockets for something.
The waiter arrived seconds later to take the orders. Maura put in hers first and then Jane. Everyone was waiting on Frost to order his when he put his menu down and laughed nervously.
"Okay, now this is really embarrassing," he said quietly. He nodded to the waiter, "That's all; give the ladies another bottle of wine too." He smiled his debonair smile and waited for the waiter to leave. When he was out of sight he exhaled heavily.
"What's up, Partner?"
Frost looked up at Jane and shook his head and then looked over at Maura. "I forgot my wallet at my place."
"What?" Jane gasped and chuckled. "Do you know how many laws you've already broken tonight? Including driving a car that I know you didn't buy with BPD money. Are you on someone else's payroll?" She asked jokingly.
"Nah," he said smoothing his suit, "Maybe I'm a high class escort."
Jane burst out laughing, "Yeah right."
After a few quiet moments of chuckles, he sighed heavily. "I changed at the last minute and I forgot to grab my wallet." He said getting up. "If I go now, I can make it back in time to drive us down to the party." He slid his jacket on and kissed Maura on the cheek. "I'm so sorry, Doc. Kinda lame for a first date, huh?"
"Barry, it's quite alright, I will pay for dinner."
"No, no," He said putting his hand up. I'll be right back! You ladies enjoy." He walked over to Jane and bent down and placed a soft kiss on her cheek as well. "Thanks for putting up with me, Rizzoli." He said handing her a small envelope. "I'll be back before you know it!" He said exiting the restaurant and waving down the valet.
Jane turned around and looked at Maura. They both start laughing. This night was definitely turning out to be a memorable one. "Do you think we'll get stuck washing dishes on New Year's?"
Maura chuckled, "No, he'll be back. You're forgetting; he has to work with us. He'd dare not do anything to receive our wrath."
"You got that right," Jane smiled and finally released Maura's hand so she could open the small envelope. She opened it slowly, her smile disappearing from her face with each word that she read.
"What does it say?"
Her face lit up again with a smile as she shook her head. "Dear Jane and Maura," she began reading the note, "I didn't really leave my wallet. I just wanted you two to enjoy yourselves the way you should be tonight. Dinner is already paid for. Drink lots of wine, have dessert. Maura, Jane has wanted to bring you here for a long time. When you're ready to go, just call me and I'll pick you up. ~Frost."
"Oh how sweet!" Maura grinned from ear to ear.
"Wow, I know." Jane said picking up her wine glass. "To us?"
Maura smiled and rose her glass to Jane's, "To us."
They tapped their glasses together and sipped slowly, their eyes never leaving each other. The candlelight flickered in Maura's eyes, while radiating her face with a beautiful soft glow.
Jane gazed lovingly into her eyes. She'd never gazed at anything with so much love before. Maura smiled and her beautiful smile caused Jane's insides to stir.
"You're so beautiful," Maura said softly.
Jane felt the heat rush to her face. She was just a few seconds too slow making the same statement. Jane reached over and took Maura's hand, at the same time slipping her foot out of her shoe and sliding it up Maura's right calf. She jumped with surprise and squeezed Jane's hand.
"Oh my, I wasn't expecting that." Maura whispered and chuckled.
"No one will know if you just play it cool."
Maura's eyes widened when she felt Jane's foot move up the length of her leg, stroking her softly. "What are you doing?"
"Do you like it?"
Maura nodded briskly, and cleared her throat. She looked around at the other diners to see if anyone was paying attention.
"No one is watching."
"I know."
"Then what's the problem, Maur?" Jane teased her.
Maura laughed her adorable laugh and strummed her fingers through her hair. "It feels good, that's what the problem." A shiver passed through her. "You should stop."
Jane pouted and nodded. "Okay. Your wish is my command."
"Do you mean that?"
"Yes, I do."
Maura smiled, "That's good to know," Maura eyed the waiter returning with their food. "I won't forget that."
The waiter placed their food and left the table. Everything looked so delicious, especially the Maine lobster Maura had ordered. Jane sat back watching her for a moment, silently admiring this goddess that she'd fallen madly in love with.
Maura broke off a piece of the lobster, slid her fork into it and dipped it into the butter sauce. A slight smile crossed her face; perhaps she was anticipating the delicious morsel passing over her tongue while she devoured it, Jane didn't know, but she did know that she was absolutely beautiful.
Jane's heartrate increased the moment Maura's lips parted, her tongue trembling with anticipation, waited on the edge of her lips. Jane's entire body shivered when she witnessed Maura's soft tongue coming out to greet the soft morsel before taking it into her mouth while she slowly devoured it. Apparently it was delicious because Maura couldn't stop the pleasurable moan that escaped her mouth.
"Mmm, oh wow, this is so delicious." She said finally looking up at Jane. When her eyes met Jane's she saw raw passion in them, a look of pure desire radiating from Jane's eyes like burning flames. The look in Jane's eyes caused her to pause what she was doing.
Jane parted her mouth to speak, but nothing came out. Maura had unintentionally rendered her speechless. Jane could barely breathe because she was feeling so much arousal for this woman… It made no sense whatsoever!
Maura wiped her lips with her linen cloth and smiled. "What is it?"
Jane shook her head negatively and buried her eyes into her meal. She forced her fork and knife to coordinate in order to stuff her mouth full of food. She needed something, anything to distract her from the thoughts that were now flooding her mind. Her hands trembled with silent restraint, her body aching deeply to touch and be touched by Maura.
Finally she had enough on her fork to taste. "Wow, this is great." Jane said chewing rapidly. She needed to keep her mouth full so she couldn't possibly utter the words that had been burning on her heart all night.
"May I?" Maura reached over with her fork.
"Sure, allow me." Jane slid some onto her fork and with trembling hands, raised it to Maura's mouth.
Maura opened her mouth slightly, grabbing Jane's trembling hands, stilling them while they made their approach to her awaiting mouth. Maura's eyes locked on to Jane's as Jane slid the fork into her mouth. Maura cooed softly as she chewed.
"Mmm, yum." She said.
Jane was trembling more now, her thin fingers glided across Maura's lips capturing a thin sliver of juice that had escaped her mouth. Her eyes fell to Maura's beautiful pink lips, and thoughts of kissing her flooded her mind.
Maura's lips turned up into a smile causing Jane's attention to go back to her eyes.
"Either you kiss me or give me my mouth back so I can eat… I'm starved."
Jane chuckled and released her. Yes, her time would come. She had Maura all to herself tonight. The night couldn't have gotten any better.
"Alright," she said, "If we weren't in this crowded place, I would have ripped your clothes off by now." She dipped another piece of her meal onto the fork and continued eating.
"Oh, that sounds exciting," Maura chirped. "Maybe later, we could have some quiet one-on-one time?"
"I wouldn't have it any other way."
Maura sighed heavily, "Good because all I want right now is to feel your arms around me again."
Jane smiled. "I want the same."
It was certainly pleasing to know that the feeling was mutual. They finished their meal in a comfortable silence, each one probably looking forward to the night ahead and the new adventures that await them. They stole a couple of occasional bashful glances from one another while they finished off another bottle of wine and finally had dessert.
Frost had really surprised them. They were treated like royalty. It was something that Jane wasn't accustomed to, but it was nice. Maura was used to it, Jane was sure, but it was just nice being able to experience it with her.
They stood outside of the restaurant waiting on Frost to pick them up. There was a chill in the air and Maura was shivering. Jane reached and pulled her into her embrace, pulling her coat around her, warming her with her own body heat.
"Mmm, thank you, Jane. Your body is so warm." She said pressing her head against Jane's chest.
Jane rested her chin on Maura's head and exhaled deeply. She closed her eyes and pulled her closer and sighed. It felt so good having her in her arms. "Maur…"
"Yes?"
Jane didn't say anything for a long time until Maura pulled away and looked up at her. Maura's eyes were so beautiful. Jane wanted… No, Jane needed to look into those same eyes every day for the rest of her life. She needed her as much as she needed air.
Jane's brain fought a losing battle with her heart, trying to dominate this moment by keeping her lips silent. But in Jane's chest, her heart burned intensely with a desire so strong that if she kept it inside, she feared that her entire being would implode in on itself.
"I love you…" she exhaled.
Maura gazed at her for a few long seconds, her eyes dancing back and forth across Jane's eyes searching for meaning and validation. Jane cupped Maura's face and smiled. Maura's shock was almost comical. Maura's eyes filled up with tears and her lips quivered in an attempt to hold back her tears.
Jane nodded and swiped away the tear that had escaped Maura's eye. "I've loved you for so long… I just didn't know how to say it in a way that made sense."
Maura smiled and nodded. "Love rarely makes sense."
"Dr. Maura Dorthea Isles?" Jane said pulling her closer.
"Yes, Detective Jane Clementine Rizzoli?"
Jane leaned in closer, "I…" she said bringing her lips closer to Maura's, "am madly in love with you."
Maura chuckled, "Is that right, huh?" she brought her lips to Jane's capturing them with a deep and sensual kiss. They really didn't care if there were people walking around them.
Jane cupped her face, pulling her deeper into the kiss. "Yes, I love you…" Jane exhaled into Maura's mouth. Maura moaned as the heat of her passion increased with each second. "So much."
They kissed for another minute or two before Jane disengaged and pressed her forehead against Maura's. They both were breathing heavily with arousal.
"I've never done this before." Jane said looking into Maura's eyes.
"Neither have I." Maura's lips reached for another kiss, but they found Jane's tongue instead. Maura sucked it lightly into her mouth, tasting the remnants of the sweet red wine and dessert on it.
"Would you like to try?" Jane whispered. "And if it doesn't work, we'll continue on like we are."
Maura rubbed her nose against Jane's. "What do you want?"
"You… All of you." Jane's breath caught in her throat when she felt Maura's cold hands reaching around her waist and pulling her tightly against her.
"I want you too." Maura sighed as she ran her lips across the neckline of Jane's dress.
"Will you be mine?"
"Oh my god, yes. Yes, I will." Maura tightened her grip around Jane and sighed contently.
Jane kissed the top of her head and smiled. This had to be the best night ever. Hands down.
"I've loved you for a long time too, Jane."
"I'm so glad to hear that."
Frost arrived a minute later and honked for them to get into the car. They hopped in and settled into the warm seats.
Frost had turned on some smooth listening instrumental music and turned the heat up in the car. He didn't say much to them, because he had a phone call. The only time he addressed them particularly was when asking them to fasten their belts. Other than that, he just talked and drove…
Maura scooted over closer to Jane and Jane put her arm around her and pulled her closer. She gazed into Maura's eyes and smiled at this beautiful creature who had just agreed to be exclusively hers. It was a new experience playing out before both their eyes, and Jane wouldn't have it any other way.
Jane strummed her fingers through Maura's hair and leaned in closer. Maura reached and cupped the back of her head, pulling her in. Jane' lips connected with Maura with a force that was not only hot, but also magnetic and jarring.
Jane's hands found their way to Maura's thigh, gliding up it slowly, creeping towards her lace underwear that she had spied her wearing earlier. Maura's hand cupped Jane's and Jane paused briefly and looked in her eyes. Maura's eyes shimmered with desire as she pulled Jane's hand up higher and closer to her burning hot center.
Jane grazed Maura's ear with her lips, sighing heavily into it, "Oh my god, baby… You're so hot."
Maura moved her leg causing Jane's hand to settle comfortably on the soft smooth mound of Maura's throbbing pussy. Maura sucked in a rasp breath when Jane glided her fingers softly over her, twirling her middle finger around her hardening clit.
Maura's body trembled, "Yes…" She whimpered. "inside,"
Jane obliged and dipped her finger inside of her, Maura's body tensed up as Jane pressed inside of her. Her fingers traveled deep inside, curling up to massage that soft spot that she felt upon entry.
Maura reached and took a handful of Jane's hair, "Jane…" her name floated silently off her lips as her body trembled even more. Maura's eyes burned into Jane's, their gazes were in a permanent lock. Jane couldn't think of looking away or closing her eyes at the moment.
"You feel so good, Maur" she whispered into her ear. "I want to fuck you so bad."
"You do?" Maura tried to act like everything was normal, but her body trembled as Jane slid her slender fingers deeper inside of her. "What else do you want to do?" Her eyes glanced towards the front to a make sure Frost's attention was still on the road and his conversation.
"I want to know what you taste like."
It was only then that Maura's gaze broke away from Jane's, glancing down at Jane's fingers that were slowly sliding in an out of her. Her eyes fluttered shut temporarily and she bit down on her lip, suppressing a moan.
Jane felt Maura's pussy catch fire and open up for her, her body pulling Jane's fingers deeper inside. Jane had to clamp her mouth shut in order to silence the verbal reaction that her heart wanted to express.
"I want to know too." Maura whispered.
Jane didn't need to ask. She already knew what she meant. She continued to fondle Maura's piping hot pussy until her fingers were saturated with Maura's love. She pulled them up to her lips and slid them inside of her mouth.
"Oh my god," Maura gasped.
Jane licked every last drop off of her fingers and then licked her lips satisfyingly. She held Maura's gaze the entire time. Maura trembled as she watched Jane's mouth curl up into a smile.
"Mmm…" Jane said before leaning in and capturing Maura's lips.
She dipped her tongue inside, twirling hers with Maura's. Maura whimpered and pulled Jane closer into a passionate kiss.
"I love you so much, Jane." Maura said in between breaths. "Why did we wait so long?"
"I don't know, but we are here now. Let's enjoy it."
Their kiss eventually lessened in fervor until they pulled away from each other. Jane was so ready to fuck Maura; she couldn't even think straight. Jane gave her a light peck on the lips and smiled as Maura held her head close to hers. Maura massaged the back of Jane's neck lightly as their foreheads rested together.
"Make love to me, Jane." Maura's soft tongue traced the outline of Jane's bottom lip.
"I will." She said softly closing her eyes and enjoying the softness of her woman. Maura placed feather soft kisses on her face while Jane relished in the close contact.
The car came to a stop and they found the wherewithal to disengage momentarily. Frost pulled over to the curb and finished up his conversation. After he'd hung up, he turned towards them.
"Okay ladies, this is where my job ends." He said motioning to the hotel entryway.
Jane looked outside and then back at Frost. "I'm confused. I thought we were going to the party?"
"No, I'm going to the party. You two are going to room 1623."
"Huh?" Jane said. She felt Maura's hand glide up her forearm and squeeze it lightly.
"Do you really want to be at the Dirty Robber right now?" He asked.
Jane looked at Maura and they both chuckled. "No we don't."
He reached into his pocket and retrieved the room key. "Have fun ladies. Don't tear the room up. If you do, I'll have to sell my ride to pay for it."
Jane snatched the keys out of his hand and smiled. "I owe you one, Partner."
"No you don't. Just go and bring in the New Year the way you should."
"What about you?" Jane said.
He shrugged, "I'm meeting someone in a half hour. Now get going or you'll make me late!"
Jane and Maura hopped out of the car and raced to the elevator. On the way up, Jane couldn't help but think about all the fun they were about to have and she hoped she could wing it until she learned how to please Maura.
This was such a new experience for her. She was nervous, she was anxious. But she was oh so ready to bring in the New Year with Maura. When they stepped off the elevator and walked slowly to the door, Maura paused and turned to her.
"I'm somewhat nervous."
"We'll be fine. It's just another night right?"
"Yes."
"We'll do everything like we always do, with the exception of I plan to have my face buried between your legs for a majority of the night."
Maura blushed red and chuckled. "Oh my, you sound very confident, I like that."
Jane swiped the key and pushed open the door. What awaited them was a luxury suite with a king sized bed, fireplace, Jacuzzi and an amazing view of the Boston skyline.
Maura gasped and smiled. "You'll never know, Detective Rizzoli, I think I may have a few tricks up my sleeve for you." She winked and blew her a kiss.
"Oh la la, I like the sound of that." Jane batted her eyebrows, accepting her challenge.
"My wish is your command?" Maura cooed.
Jane nodded and pulled her closer. "Yes, ma'am.
"Good because I have a few wishes you need to fulfill, starting with…" Jane's eyes followed Maura's hand as it glided downward."
She swallowed her heart in one audible gulp. "Oh Maur…" she exhaled.
"That's exactly what I wanted to hear." She said as she latched onto Jane giving her a deep kiss. Jane reached and shut the door behind them.
Tonight was the beginning of hopefully a lifetime of memories, but first, they had to end their year and start a new one off the right way.
And that was in the arms of one another…
