R&I

There's a sliver of morning sunlight shining through the bedroom curtains as Jane and Maura lay in bed.

Since it's Saturday, the ladies has no need to get up just yet. This is how it's supposed to be, in love and wrapped up in holding each other in their arms. Maura stirs a little, nuzzling into Jane's neck and hair. She loves this feeling, the scent that's uniquely Jane's. With her eyes still closed, Maura kisses softly on Jane's neck. This starts Jane to stir a bit, enjoying and relishing her honey-blond delight as she embraces her.

"Mmm, feels good"...Jane speaks lazily.

"Mmm" Maura moans as she continues her caresses on her lover's neck and throat.

Jane widening her eyes to see her lover raising on top of her, with piercing-predator eyes and a lustful hunger for some appreciative morning sex. Jane moves her hands on Maura's hips and back in circular motion as their kissing passion deepens. Having morning sex with the one person you love, will never compare to a thousand lovers in a lifetime!


R&I

After the ladies finishes their shower separately, their back in the kitchen preparing brunch. They're maneuvering in perfect harmony, as Angela comes into the kitchen.

"Hi girls" Angela greets.

"Hi Ma - Angela" Jane and Maura says.

"Maura, I went by the store earlier this morning. Saw the we were out of a couple of items for making dinner along with some fresh fruits and vegetables" Angela continued to say.

"Ah, thank you Angela. What do I owe you"? Maura replies.

"Oh shucks, nonsense Sweetie...I'm always happy to do it" explicit Angela. "What are you two making by the way"?

"Just grilled cheese and scrambled eggs" Jane says.

"You girls must have plans later on or something"? Angela inquiring.

"Not that I know of, Angela" Maura say while drinking a glass of orange juice.

"Yes, we do have plans - at least I made plans for me and Maura this afternoon" Jane quirp in. "It's a little surprise that I have planned with Maura...Ma".

"Oh Jane, really...I had no idea"?! Maura interest piqued. "Where are we going, if I may ask"?!

"That's why it's called a 'surprise' Maur" Jane explains. "Besides, you'll see after we finish eating - AND before you also ask, you're dressed perfectly for where we're going"...

"Ah I see, well I'll be on my way. I'm going by your brother's place...I'm sure he needs someone to cleanup his place" Angela says.

"Ma, Frankie's a grown man, I'm sure he can handle cleaning his own place...besides isn't he seeing Pamela or whoever"?! Jane interjects.

"Yes, but I'm still his mother. Pamela is a nice young lady I'm sure of, but I'm still going over and check" Angela says. "Anyway, with that in mind...I haven't had a chance to tell you girls that I'm so happy that you two has gotten closer" while hugging Maura and Jane.

"Thanks, Ma - Thank you, Angela" Jane and Maura adds.

"Okay, I'll leave you girls to it then, and remember Jane...Family Sunday dinner tomorrow" Angela reminds Jane.

"I'll be here Ma, don't worry" Jane adds.

Angela waves bye, Jane closes the door while Maura hurries off upstairs to her bedroom, to redo her makeup and hair. Jane also follows behind upstairs to go and get ready for the afternoon and evening...


R&I

'Sittin' here, in this chair...waiting on you'

'Ah baby, you see things my way...but not a word do you say'

'You don't even look my way'

'Girl I'm, spending my dimes...wasting my time'

'Talkin' until I'm black and blue...or can't you see'

'I want to get next to you'

'Dreams of you and I go sailin by, whenever your eyes met mines(And you're so fine)'

'And girl you make me feel so insecure, you're so beautiful and pure'

'Why must you be unkind, and tell me about your kind, blowing my mind'

'Girl my, my money is low and I know...that I can't take you to the fancy places, you might want to go'

'Still I want to get next to you'

'Girl, you can make me, shape me, take me...whatever it takes to please you'

'I'm willin' to do, 'cause you're my dream come true'

'I want to get next to you'

'I promise I'll never make you blue'

'Still I want to get next to you'


R&I

As Jane sits and waits on Maura upstairs, she reminisces of a song that she heard some time ago.

'Someone as beautiful as Maura, why in the world does she wants someone like me'?! 'Beauty, brains and she's wealthy...hmph, what can I do to please her, show how much that I care for her'?! My little 'surprise' for her might make her laugh in my face'... as Jane's thoughts trails on.

"I'm ready" Maura calls out, descending down the stairs.

Jane gets up taking Maura by the hand, "Alrighty then...let's be on our way, shall we"?!

The drive takes about thirty minutes, as Jane and Maura enters to the Park.

"Oh Jane...it's a Carnival with a Circus Show" "I've never been to any of these" Maura says surprisingly!

"WoW, for real...not ever" Jane is shocked and a bit sadden of Maura's childhood so restricted!

"Not ever" "My parents would say that's it not appropriate of an Isles to be seen at these kinds of events" Maura sadly says.

'Damn' Jane thinks to herself. "Well that's all about to change, my friend" "This place has every Carnival ride imaginable, plus wait until you see the Circus Show...it's a little different from ordinary Circuses but still entertaining" Jane pipes in.

The ladies walks toward the ticket booth lines, where's it a crowd today. As they're standing waiting to purchase their tickets, Maura's eyes are wandering everywhere as she takes in all of the festivities around her! Jane watches the expression on her girlfriend's face, she realizes that she did good today and intend on showing Maura all of what Carnival life has to offer. For times like these, Jane will make sure that her Maura is happy at every chance that she can make them.

"Okay, what should we ride first or whatever you want to do" Jane asks Maura, letting her choose the rides, game activities, and such.

Maura takes another look around, she looks toward the big ferris wheel. "Right there, that huge thing with the seats looking like at a ski resort" as Maura's eyes sparkle and pointing at the ride!

"Okay, come on" Jane takes Maura's hands, heading to the said ride...

After hours on different types of rides, Maura trying out different types of Carnival foods, Jane winning some prizes at the Game booths, she and Jane heads to a showing under the Big Tent! Inside Maura was absolutely thrilled as they gather their seats to watch the introduction of the Performers and Acts.

What made this particular Circus so different from the others, it was none other than the famous Cirque Soleil, were all of their performances are Acrobatic Acts and it's spectacular music and artistry. Tonight's program is entitled 'TORUK - The First Flight', which is basically the 'AVATAR' movie. All the pageantry, colors, and the realistic entertainment, the crowd was mesmerized! Jane watches Maura from the side, as she takes in all of what this spectacular show had to offer its audience and Jane couldn't be happier...


R&I

It was well after one o'clock in the morning when Jane and Maura return home. Maura carrying her favorite prized Wonder-Woman stuffed doll, that she picked out after Jane had won the baseball toss at one of the game booths. They had more stuff animal prizes but gave them away to some of the children there, at the booth or walking with their parents in a crowd.

"Did you have an okay time tonight" Jane questioned Maura.

"Tonight, Jane Rizzoli...I had one of the best times of my life" Maura expressed excitement! "And I owe it all to you" Maura walking to Jane in the foyer. She puts her arms around Jane's neck and kisses her softly and sweet, Jane giving Maura control of where this will lead.

"Mmm, I'm glad" Jane holding Maura by her waist and hips. "I love you, Maura Isles...with all my heart" as Jane continues kissing her.

"I love you too, my Jane Rizzoli...with all of my heart as well" Maura says in between kisses.

The two ladies pause for a moment, with their foreheads pressed to one another and their eyes closed, just holding on to each other. Soon though, they start making their way upstairs to retire from this evening but love-making is not a priority tonight...the women just felt content to just hold each other, for tonight is all about comfort and just being together, with no rush at all...none whatsoever.
