I'm backkkkkkk hehehe. Sorry for the wait but again if I ever meet the real Maura and Jane this story was never written! Please enjoy. Took a little over 3 hours surprisingly!
The trio held light conversation the whole time, talking about this and that. Jane told Amanda about how she and Maura had worked together for almost ten years and had been best friends for almost as long. Amanda told Maura and Jane about her life in Egypt and how her near death experience changed her life, how meeting new people opened her up to other people's views, how different the world is outside of America. She was truly fascinating.
They talked for a long time, nearly three hours as they shopped together. Maura told her what was good for her body since she was now a trainer and what things she should do to keep her body healthy and Amanda gave Maura and Jane a list of workout routines they could both enjoy together; a mix of yoga and boxing. Never did they think there was something that combined the two things and solve their problem but here Amanda was with a solution. After a while in the store getting to know one another they all lined up in the checkout line and paid for their respected items. Groceries were bought and see ya later's were exchanged between the three.
Maura pushed the cart full of food out to the car as Jane went on and on about Amanda in a child like way. "Can you believe that! I really met her today, like really talked to her and not over the phone! I mean it wasn't the way I wanted us to first meet but it went great actually! My best friend was there and I didn't say anything stupid that would embarrass myself either, you know what I'm sayin'? I was starting to think I'd never get up the courage to ask her out so we could see each other face to face. But I did and she said yes to go out tonight with me." Once they got in range, Maura pushed the unlock button on her keys and popped the trunk.
"Yes, she was pretty great. And I think you would have asked her eventually. You just like to torture yourself subconsciously, wait until you'll almost explode, then finally make a decision." She said while smiling.
Jane reached into the cart and grabbed four grocery bags and placed them in the car. "Now look who's exaggerating." Smiling she grabbed a few more. "You gonna help or just stand there and look pretty?"
She thinks I'm pretty. Maura though.
I just said she was pretty.
I know she's said it before but never for no apparent reason.
Hmmp, I don't think I've ever told Maur she was pretty without stumbling over my words or without her asking how she looked. Jane thought while she closed the trunk as she finished putting the last of the bags in.
"Now you gotta put the cart away since you didn't help."
"What?" Maura half whispered shaking the thoughts from her head.
"You gotta put the cart away since you made me do all the hard work." A playful smile gracing her lips.
Turning around to look for the closest cart station she noticed that it was about 25 yards away. "Uhmm, we could just leave it here." Her brow furrowing "Nobody will see us."
Laughing at the mischievously serious expression on her friends face she replied, "Omg is Dr. Debutant about to do something uncommon courtesy like!?"
"That's doesn't make sense and well no, it is the workers job to collect carts."
"I told you not park so far away from the entrance, that you'd regret it. Wait 'til I tell Frankie about this one. The look on your face was comical; one for the papers!"
Two hours later after the groceries were put away, besides the necessities for dinner of course, and dinner was cooked an ate with slight compliments from a certain detective, they both decided to play Maura's favorite game.
"The museum wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. I had fun." Jane stated as she slid her letters in place on the scrabble board. "I've never seen you so excited about dead people in my life. Your turn."
Maura picked up her letters and arranged the word A-P-H-T-H-A. "I'm glad you had fun today. I really enjoyed spending today with you. I didn't have any other plans anyways." She smiled and looked up to see Jane's brow crinkled.
Without looking up she replied, "Yeah, me too." She began to mouth the word as if she was tasting it. "That's not a real word!"
"Yes it is, it means small blister in the mouth."
"I've never heard of it so it doesn't count." Jane exclaimed while taking her hand and swiping all the letters off the board.
"It does count cheater!"
"Nope no it doesn't. New rule, if Jane Rizzoli doesn't know what it means its not a word choice!" The detective said laughing.
"So you're gonna limit everyone you play against to a three letter limit?" The doctor joked.
"How dare you, I know four letter words too!"
"Your name does not count."
"And they say words never hurt. You just cut me Maura, you cut me deep!" She exclaimed rolling on top of the doctor poking her in her left side. She had found out that the doctor's left side was extremely sensitive only a few days after they met. They had been standing over a dead body when Jane reached over and touched her side and asked, "What do we got?" The detective didn't get a response back just a squeal and a fit of laughter. Maura later told her that that was her one weakness besides scuffed Manolo Blahniks. And Jane had told her her secret was safe with her. But that didn't mean she didn't pull that secret out of her bag of tricks when she needed too.
"Stop! God, Jane Stop!" Maura choked out through giggles. Her head swinging from side to side, her arms flailing attempting to get Jane to stop but to no avail. "I'm sorry! Wait! I didn't mean it! Promise!"
"It's too late now! You've unleashed the badass beast!" Jane said tickling her best friend mercilessly. What seemed like forever to the ME was only a couple of minutes later. "Do you give?!" Jane yelled over the boisterous laughter coming from Maura like sweet music from an authentic Stradivari violin. She didn't want those sweet sounds to end so she was praying Maura Stubborn Isles would hold out just a little longer. Their faces only centimeters away, their legs intertwined, and their torsos tightly pressed together. She could see the vulnerability and delight on Maura's face and it made her feel so much more happier than meeting Amanda earlier. Yes finally meeting her was great but seeing this playful side of her best friend was even more exciting. She felt content.
God, I wish I could stay like this forever.
"YES!" Maura screamed. Head thrown back. Stray tear rolled out of her eye. If the detective didn't know any better she could have sworn this is what the doctor looked like in the throes of passion. Heat swarmed in her panties as this thought crossed her mind.
What I'd do to make her scream yes like that without her clothes on.
Pulling her hands back she finally relinquished her hold on the ME. Breath rushed back into Maura's lungs like she had been held under water for hours. Several minutes passed as she caught her breath, breathing erratically in Jane's ear, her eyes fluttered open revealing a ocean of green and a brown that reminded one of the autumn leaves. "I can't believe- you did that! You...you..oh never mind."
Neither one hadn't noticed that they were still wrapped in one another. Jane eyes travelled their way up from a flushed chest, past an even redder neck, plump pink lips, perfect cheekbones, and finally glossy eyes. "Wow." Was all she said.
"Wow what?" Maura asked her breathing becoming short again under the scrutiny of the raven haired woman.
"You're gorgeous. I know I called you pretty earlier but right now..." She trailed off while running her hand up Maura's side and cupping her cheek.
Barely audible Maura whispered, "Thank you." Before Jane leaned down and connected her lips to Maura's.
It was like an inferno that ignited in them both. A match that had finally been given the spark it needed to burn. Maura pushed her tongue in Jane's warm welcoming mouth, swirling around collecting everything that was her Jane. Her nails scratched up the detective's cotton covered back and tangled themselves in her hair. Jane's free hand travelled to the underside of Maura's bra clad breast. Thumb slowly caressing the fabric that separated her fingers from the real thing.
She moaned. Deep and rich. Jane moaned into Maura's mouth and she moaned back, coating each others tongue with their excitement. When air became scarce they pulled apart with eyes closed, foreheads touching.
"Maura?"
"Yes." They both continued to pant into each others air.
"I'm not gonna apologize for what we just did." She waited for a response but when she didn't get one she went on, "I'm not gonna feel sorry for knowing that kiss was the highlight of my week. Our kiss felt like magic, like the first intake of fresh air a new born baby breathes. So no I won't apologize for loving how your lips, your body, how just simply you made me feel. Inside and out."
With her eyes still closed Maura let everything Jane said soak in and after a few intense minutes she said, "I don't want you to apologize for the way we made each other feel. That was special for me as well and I don't think I'd be able to refrain from crying if you seemed as if you had regretted it."
"I don't. Absolutely not." The taller woman quickly replied.
Jane rolled off of her friend and lay next to her. She grasped her hand locking their fingers together. A quiet comfortable silence enveloped them until Maura questioned her. "What happens now?" Jane unlocked their hands and stood up pulling Maura with her.
"I go home and get ready." She stated not meeting the honey blonde's eyes.
"Get ready for what?" Maura retorted as she sat down on the couch.
Voice a whisper the dark haired woman answered, "My date."
"Seriously Jane! What about me?" The medical examiner proclaimed. The volume of her voice increasing.
"What do you mean 'What about me', you know I love you Maur, I always will but this thing with me and Amanda just started. It's an open book, I've only gotten to the second chapter and I wanna see how the book ends."
"So you just want me to sit around and wait for you to get tired of Amanda or vice versa?" Maura yelled.
"No I don't, I want you to understand me. Let me explore first. I want some experience before I ruin the best thing that would happen to me. Like taking a test, I need to study first or I'll fail. Do you get what I'm saying? I want to make my mistakes and learn from them without hurting you."
Locks of honey fell over Maura's face as her head fell obscuring Jane's view. "You're right." The doctor reached up and tucked a few strands behind her ear. "Have a great time tonight Jane."
"Please Maura don't feel like I'm trying to hurt you. Or kiss you and tell you all those things just to toy with you. You're my morning and night. You know that." Padding softly over to the couch, she knelt down and kissed the crown of Maura's head.
"Goodnight." The medical examiner said in a monotone voice.
"Goodnight. Can I come over tomorrow for breakfast, my treat?" Jane said retrieving her coat and sliding on her boots.
"You sure you're not gonna have any morning company who wouldn't want you slipping away to other women's homes?" Maura exclaimed sarcastically.
Before she closed the front door to Maura's house she called out. "You're right she probably wouldn't, but I don't think you'll mind me making breakfast for you after we make love. That's one first I don't want with any other woman."
AN: ok that's the end of this chapter. I hope you all enjoyed and thank you for being patient with me and this story. Much Love y'all ;)
