This (very) small drabble was ignited by Maura's red mug "Keep Calm and buy shoes", hope y'all like it!


Drabble #4 (The mug)

"Maur?" Jane called as she entered her best friend's office.

"Hi Jane" Maura answered looking up from her computer.

"I brought us lunch" the detective stated as she sat the brown paper bags on the coffee table near couch.

"Great, I'm hungry" the doctor smiled before making her way towards the couch where her friend was sat.

"What is this?" the honey blonde asked once she spotted the blue paper wrapped box among the bags of food.

Jane reached for the box and handed it to the doctor before saying, "Open it".

Carefully unwrapping the paper, Maura opened the box to reveal a red coffee mug. "Keep calm and buy shoes" written on it in white.

"I saw it when I went out to get us food and it just reminded of you, so I bought it. If you don't like it, it's okay" Jane said when Maura remained silent for a few moments.

"I loved it, Jane" Maura stated, touched by her friend's gesture, as she reached for the other woman's hand, held in between hers bringing it to her lips before whispering " Thank you"
