You know the drill; I don't own nothing and all that blah blah blah
It was 6 in the morning when Jane cracked an eye open. 'Huh. How did I end up on the floor?' Opening the other eye, she realized that she was lying on Genesis. When she saw this, she got up carefully as to not wake him up and made her way to the bathroom to shower and get dressed for her fitting. Letting the hot water run down her face, Jane lost herself in her thoughts. 'I wonder if she'll notice that this resembles somewhat of a date. Am I trying too hard? Oh man I hope not. I think I should be subtle but not too subtle, that way she has a clue to what's going on.' Getting dressed in some old ripped jeans, black v-neck tee, and her combat boots, Jane made her way out the door and to the tailor to take measurements. After getting an estimated time when her suit will be ready, she walks down the street and into the jewelry shop to get a gift for Maura. Paying for her gift she walks out the store and dawdles around until it's time to pick her suit up. Arriving at her apartment, she shoots a quick text to Maura. "Hey, I'll be there to pick you up at 7:30. Is that okay?" She goes into the kitchen to feed the dogs. While she's putting the food back up, she gets a reply. "Sounds perfect. Ian's going to be at his hotel tonight so girl's night at my house Jay?" Chuckling at her nickname, she sends a reply. "Sounds good Maur. See you in a couple of hours" She goes to the car dealership and picks up the car that she scheduled to be rented. Going back to her apartment she gets dressed in her suit, fixes her hair into a controlled chaos like Maura likes it and finishes with some perfume. "Well Genesis and Jo Friday. How do I look?" she asks the dogs. After checking herself one last time, she heads to Maura's house. Arriving at Maura's house she knocks on the door on time. When the door opens, both women are amazed at each other.
"Wow. Uh, beautiful. Crap, I'm messing this up already. Hey Maur." I manage to stammer out.
"Hello, Jay. "She says.
"Are you ready to go?" I ask.
"Sure"
I take her arm and lead her down to the Challenger that I rented. Driving to the Opera, she gets a good look at me. "Is that an Armani suit?" she asks. I nod. After that she stays silent for the rest of the drive.
Pulling up to the Opera, I shoot around to the other side of the car to help Maura out. Walking up to the side entrance, I greet my friends that secure the door.
"Hey guys. What's goin on?"
"Not much Rizzoli. Who's this good lookin lady?" Jake, the taller one, asks.
"Jake and James, I'd like you to meet Maura, she's my best friend" I reply.
An exchange of 'Hellos' are had before I move things along.
"So Jake, you got my seats ready?"
"Yeah sure Rizzoli. Right this way."
He leads us through the door and up a flight of stairs before we go through another door and into the private box that overlooks the stage. Turning around I look at Maura as her eyes widen in surprise. "Oh my god! Jay! How did you do this? You usually have to book this a year in advance!" she exclaimed. "I'll tell you later how I did it, but right now I want you to enjoy tonight." I explained. "Okay, but I want all the details." She conceded. Just before the Opera started, there was a knock on the door. When I answered it, it was the waitress that I requested since she spoke Italian.
"È che la champagne speciali che ho ordinato?" I asked.
"Il Krug Clos du Mesnil Blanc de Blancs Brut?" she asked.
"Destra".
"Sì, è" she replied.
"Dire James ho detto grazie" I told her before she left. Walking over to Maura, I picked up two champagne flutes and sat down.
"I didn't know you were fluent in Italian Jay"
"Fate ora. Vorrei solo sapere cosa stavo pensando Maura."
"What did you just say?"
"What? There's a language that Dr. Maura Isles doesn't know? Sound the alarms! You'll figure out what I said. Just use the cognates between languages." I said while pouring the champagne. After I handed Maura her flute the Opera started.
MEANWHILE
'I'm going to find that freaking letter' Ian thought as he drove to Jane's apartment. Slipping in after someone else, he walked up to her door and picked the lock. Peering out into the hallway to see if anyone saw him, he backed into her apartment and closed the door. When he turned around he came face to face with Genesis. When Genesis growled he tried the easy way out and tried to give him the beef jerky that he was eating. It worked on Jo Friday but Genesis remained stoic. "Good doggie. C'mon just be a good doggie" Ian said while taking a step closer. Genesis leapt at him and bit his arm. As Ian fell he bit into his shoulder and was trying to bite the skin off. Ian was scrambling to the nearest door when Genesis bit his leg. Ian pulled his knife out and stabbed at Genesis, hitting him once, and when he let go scrambled into the bathroom and locked the door. Propping himself up against the door he looked around and saw that there was no way out. He heard Genesis growling on the other side of the door, so he was going to play the waiting game.
BACK AT THE OPERA
Jane and Maura walked back to Jane's car. Stopping along the way to get some Chinese takeout, Jane pulled up at Maura's house. Making their way inside and in the kitchen, Maura took out plates and distributed the food while Jane changed into her PJ's. Jane came back out and poured them both some wine to drink while moving to the living room.
"Hey Maur, what do you want to watch?"
"Oh! Let's watch the documentary on cars. I recorded it just for you and it sounds interesting to me so it should be good for the both of us"
"Okay, do you want to play truth or dare afterwards or chess?"
"Truth or dare, then chess?"
"Sounds good to me"
Yaay for Ian getting hurt right? Translation for the Italian parts and these are in order as they appear: "Is that the special champagne I ordered?"
"The Krug Clos du Mesnil Blanc de Blancs Brut?"
"Right."
"Yes it is."
"Tell James I said thank you."
"You do now. I just wish you knew what I was thinking Maura."
