Hey everyone so this is the second new chapter I'm uploading since my brief hiatus. I don't know when the next chapter will be posted, I'm on my way back home, I wrote this chapter on the airplane, It was awkward cause this lady was like "no way you write FanFiction" and I was like "NOO?" it was hilarious, but she figured I was kidding and she said she liked the story but she really only reads Fringe and Ghost Whisperer when she has time. So anyway back to the good stuff, yay new chapter, enjoy.

Maura POV

How do I let myself get caught up in Jane? I we have this deep connection, but I'm trying to stay strong. I completely forgot that I have to pick Natalie up from Rachel's house. I leave the hospital, to get across town to Rachel's house. While in the car, I try to listen to the radio, to get my mind off Jane. But of course it doesn't work; all I can think about is Jane. Her lips on mine, her strong hands holding me close, our hands all over each other, after all these years I still have a reaction to her. I can still remember that night, it was hard and dirty at first but after two rounds, it was more sensual, slow, loving. We made love and we didn't even know each that well, but we both trusted each other. I can't trust that she will stay, when there's a decision between me and her career. I shouldn't have left her like that but I couldn't stay, I have to get Natalie. Without even realizing, I'm here at Rachel's already, I see Natalie grab her bag and walk to the car. I unlock the door and she gets in the seat of front.

"Hey baby girl, how was the studying" I ask, wanting to know about her day.

"Hey mom, studying was good, we were, well I was mainly thinking about tryouts. There were a lot of girls, sophomores like me trying out; I really hope I at least make the Varsity squad." Natalie says looking a little worried.

"Oh hunny, I'm pretty sure you made the team, you trained so hard over the summer, you're a shoe-in for Varsity. How about we go out to eat, to get your mind off of tryouts, what do you say" I ask Natalie.

"Mom that sounds great, can we try this Italian place called Angela's, Rachel says they have the best lasagna and fettuccini; it's downtown Boston" Nat replies.

"Yeah sure, sounds good to me, let's go" I say driving off toward downtown Boston.

I see that they have garage parking and valet, I choose to do valet since Natalie is with me, I know she wouldn't want to walk. We pull up to the valet, they help us out and I hand them my keys, receiving a number ticket in return. We walk up to the hostess and let her know it will only be us two. She smiles and leads us to our table. The place has a homely atmosphere, with a lot of different sports memorabilia. It's like a cross between olive garden and hard rock but has a more personal feel to it. After about five minutes our waitress Lynn comes around with glasses of water and menus, "I'll give you a few minutes to look things over and be back to take your order." We both say thank you, and discuss what we are thinking of getting.

"So Nat what are you thinking of having for dinner, I might go for the lasagna, it looks good" I say.

"I think I might try the chicken fettuccini Alfredo, oh how about you get the lasagna and I get the fettuccini, and we can give each other half of our dishes" Natalie proposes.

"Sounds like a good idea sweetie, I knew you got my smarts, to go with the beauty" I say making her blush.

We fall into a comfortable silence, looking at the menu and Natalie looking around.

"Wow mom look its Coach Rizzoli on the wall, wow she looks so young, hey there's another one of her" Natalie points out.

As I follow where she is pointing, I notice not one, not two but a whole wall filled with Jane Rizzoli memorabilia. I see pictures from when she was younger to recent magazine covers. I see signed jerseys balls, by the USWNT and coaches. I see some old soccer trophies from the late 80's and 90's, it's kind of creepy if you think about it. I see Natalie is completely mesmerized by the wall of Jane Rizzoli; I just look at her and smile. I let her continue to look at everything and she gets up to walk around, I notice the waitress coming back so I just order for both of us. I then notice an older woman talking with my daughter with just as much enthusiasm as Natalie is showing. Then I see what looks like my daughter going into shock, she then points over at me, and continues to talk with the older woman. I then see the woman pull out a picture and show it to Natalie, Natalie couldn't help but scream "No Way" which the lady just laughs. I get up to go see what's gotten my daughter so excited about.

"Natalie are you ok, you look like your about to explode" I ask making my way over to where she is standing.

"Yeah mom I'm fine, I was just having a conversation with Angela. Yes, as in Angela's, this is Angela and she owns this restaurant. We were discussing Jane Rizzoli; she then told me that she knew her personally. I said no way she could Jane Rizzoli, she then pulls out a picture of her and Jane Rizzoli when she was younger. This is Angela Rizzoli, Jane's mom, can you believe that. Oh sorry Ms. Rizzoli this is my mom, Dr. Maura Isles." Natalie says introducing us.

"Wow that is amazing Natalie, hello Ms. Rizzoli, and pleasure to meet you. My daughter is your daughter's biggest fan; she even plays the same position as yours. She just transferred here at the beginning of the school year and had tryouts this past week for East Manchester." Maura says rambling on about Natalie.

"My Janie is going to be coaching you, that's amazing, she is an amazing coach. I didn't know we were having a future Eagle striker with us for dinner, please grab your things and follow me." Angela says practically dragging me and Natalie upstairs, to what looks like a VIP type dining area. When we reach the top of the stairs we can overlook the whole restaurant, but we continue through the doors. When we enter we notice a huge dining table that seats about 20, with smaller tables aligning the walls. I see the walls decorated with soccer stuff including: East Manchester, Boston Breakers and USWNT and on the other walls having all the Boston professional team memorabilia. There's foosball, pool, vitamin water machine and air hockey; and 3 plasma screen TV's on the walls. I see Natalie's eyes explode with joy; I can see she is truly happy to be here in Boston.

"So this is where East Manchester Eagles eat both girls and boys soccer teams, we call it the Eagles Nest. It's a private dining area for the players, coaches and parents. We do open it up for other East Manchester students and parents during the soccer offseason. So what do you think Natalie?" Angela says giving us the tour of the private dining area.

"I LOVE it, this is so cool, and I really hope I make the team now. Mom do you see this place, you won't have to worry about me ever, I'll just be here all the time. Ms. Rizzoli this place is amazing, whose Idea was this?" Natalie asks.

"It was mine" I heard that very distinctive voice, that sends my body in to chills "I brought my mom her very own restaurant, but I wanted a place for East Manchester kids to hang out, to stay out of trouble." Jane says.

"Well I think that's very thoughtful of you Jane" I say, but she doesn't acknowledge me.

"This place rocks Coach Rizzoli, you are so awesome" Natalie says smiling at Jane.

'Awww thanks Nat Pack, so I know I'm not supposed to tell you this but come here" Jane kneels down to whisper in Natalie's ear.

"No freaking way, are you serious, thank you so much Coach Jane" I see Natalie almost tearing up while hugging Jane.

"Natalie are you alright baby girl, what's wrong" I ask getting a little worried about what Jane had told her.

"I'm more than alright, I'm great, and I'm just the new starting left striker for the East Manchester Eagles. Mom I made the team, first stringer and everything, just like Coach Rizzoli." Natalie says super excited.

I look to Jane and smile, but a half smiled is all I get in return. I know she is halfway smiling because Natalie and Angela are still in the room.

"Come on Natalie lets go raid the kitchen, to see if our food is ready, race you" Jane say to Natalie.

Natalie then speeds out the door and down the stairs to the kitchen. Jane walks over to her mom, kisses her cheek and says thanks for giving me and Natalie a tour. Her mom kisses her cheek and says "anything for you Janie." She smiles at her mom, but it immediately drops when we make eye contact. All I can see in her eyes is hurt and pain. I really didn't want to hurt her, but I'm just looking out for me and daughters hearts. I can't take a third time, and Natalie doesn't need someone walking in and out of her life, that's already happened once. I still can't help but feel disgusted at how I treated Jane, I'm letting her kiss me and then I completely push her away from me, twice. I know we would be great together, and I know Natalie loves her, but I don't know how Natalie would feel about me dating her coach. I only wish that Jane can forgive me in the future, maybe get passed the hurt, and become friends.

I move to take a seat at one of the smaller tables, and wait for Natalie to return with our food. "It's going to be a long night" I here Angela say. I can't help but think she's right.

So Jane and Natalie grow a little closer, there definitely will be more to their budding relationship. Jane gives Maura the cold shoulder. Maura feels awful but are her reasons for the best? Eagles Nest who wouldn't love that, yay Angela enters the universe woohoo. Review, let me know what you think, drama will lighten up, there might be a jealous Maura soon hmm? Let me know what you think, thanks. :)
