Detectives Without Borders Ch. 10
A little over a week later, Jane is released from the hospital. Her, Maura, and Frost had just said their goodbyes to the nurses and made their way to the hospital's front entrance.
"Remind me again why I'm being pushed out in a wheelchair? My hands were hurt, not my legs." Jane points out while gesturing to her hands, the bandages on them were not as thick as a few days ago.
Maura just smiles lovingly and rolls her eyes as she wheels Jane out towards the exit.
"You know exactly why, Jane. The only reason you're agreeing to a rule for once is because Maura asked you to. All she did was ask one time. Man, you're whipped." Frost snickers as he teases her.
Jane only grumbles under her breath in response because she knows he's right. When she doesn't say anything back, he cracks up laughing.
"Yeah, that's what I thought Rizzoli."
Jane had to chuckle at that, she loved their friendship and all the sarcasm that came with it. "You know what? I don't need my hands to kick your ass."
They continue to go outside with their friendly banter where Maura has her jeep parked.
"I'm gonna miss that sweet Camaro." Frost commented sadly as they got to the wrangler.
Jane hops out of the wheelchair and says "Yeah, me too... But I miss my BPD sedan even more. Not just because it looks cool."
Frost understands what Jane means, their sedans were nothing special to anyone else but to them they held a lot of memories. So much history went down either in those cars or near them. Jane made her first arrest as a detective when she slammed a murderer down on the hood of her car to cuff him. They both had their fair share of car chases and a few accidents, and once had to duck behind the car during a gun fight.
While Frost and Jane take a trip down memory lane together, Dr. Cooper takes the wheelchair from Maura.
"I'm gonna miss having you work here. I don't think there's going to be a finer doctor to ever set foot in this building."
"Thank you, Riley. I'll miss you too. It was always great working with you. You're an exceptional doctor as well. This hospital should be honored to have you here."
Riley brings Maura into a hug and says "Keep in touch, will ya?"
"Of course I will." Maura responds when the hug ends.
Riley turns to Jane and tells her "Good luck in all of your therapies. I know you will come back just as strong as before, if not stronger."
"Thank you, doctor." She says with a smile.
"And it was a pleasure meeting you too, Detective Frost..." She shakes his hand and then speaks to everyone. "I hope we can all see each other again sometime."
They all say their goodbyes as she wheels the chair back inside, then the three get into the jeep.
On the way to Maura's house, they talk about their plans for that night and the next morning.
"We have everything packed and ready to go, so we can have a relaxing night." Frost says as he puts the visor down to block the blinding sun from hitting his eyes.
"That sounds perfect, and very much needed. How about we just order take out and watch a movie?" Maura suggests.
Jane exchanges a look with her partner from the backseat and both say "Great idea."
"I have the perfect place." She says, then turns the corner.
They stop inside the small Chinese restaurant and order all of their favorite things before heading back to Maura's house.
Most of her belongings are packed away in boxes and Jane wonders how she did it all so fast.
"Hey, Maur? How you do all this within a week? You were at the hospital a lot."
"Barry helped me actually."
"There wasn't much to pack, so it didn't take long. Besides, your way of packing is a lot longer. You always stop in the middle to watch a game with Frankie and Tommy."
"I do not..." She starts to argue with Frost, then pauses and knows she will be caught in an obvious lie. "... Not every time."
The three laugh, then Frost and Jane go through the packed box filled with DVDs and proceed to bicker over what to watch.
"It's Maura's house, she should choose anyway." Jane says and looks over at Maura, who was giggling at the playful argument over what movie to put in.
"Don't look at me. I can't decide either, and I wouldn't want one or both you being unhappy with my choice. Isn't there a different movie you could agree on and watch your other choices another time?"
"I guess that's fair." Frost shrugs, fine with the suggestion as is Jane.
They continue looking through the large box of movies, and the detectives gasp simultaneously.
"Yesss!"
Both grab the same DVD and smirk at one another. The trio settle into the couch and eat the still hot and fresh food from their containers as the movie starts playing.
Jane has difficulty at first gripping her fork, both Frost and Maura watch as she struggles but are impressed when she figures it out. Slipping the fork between two fingers, Jane is successfully able to pick up food without dropping it.
"What?" She says when she realizes they were staring. "I may not be able to move my hands completely yet but my fingers are uncovered and I can use them a little."
"No, we were just impressed with how well you adjusted, and so quickly too."
Jane blushes at Maura's words and thanks her, and then they focused back on the movie.
"I know this could never really happen, and I'm grasping the plot pretty well... But there's just one thing I don't get." Maura says to the two of them after a few minutes.
"What's that, babe?" Jane asks.
"If Kyle says nothing dead can travel through time, like clothes and weapons, then how could the terminator go through?"
"A valid point there... But remember what else Kyle said? That the terminator is a living organism, it has skin and can even bleed. It's from the future so there's a bunch of cool technology we can't comprehend. It's complicated and confusing, but you get it a little bit now?"
"Yes, I think so. I'm a very realistic person, I suppose that's why I'm having difficulty."
Jane just grins and they finish eating their food in comfortable silence, only speaking to comment about certain parts of the movie.
The food is long gone by the time the movie is over, just as the credits start to roll Maura quietly yawns. Jane thinks it's the most adorable thing in the world and is unable to resist leaning over to kiss her on the top of her head. Maura was under her arm and relaxed in her embrace, she sighed in content when she felt Jane's lips press down softly against her.
"We should go to bed, it's getting really late and we have an early flight tomorrow morning." Maura says after extricating herself from Jane's arms and gets up from the couch. Both miss the contact immediately.
They throw away the empty containers and put what little food was left in Maura's fridge.
"Barry, there's a bathroom in my guest bedroom you're more than welcome to use. Fresh towels and other linens should still be in the closet, so please help yourself to the shower. You can also use the laundry room if you have clothes you would like to wash."
"Thanks, Maura. I'll be sure to do that. Goodnight you guys, see ya in the morning."
Frost walks down the hall to the guest bedroom and closed the door.
"Maur, you mind if I shower too?"
"Of course not, Jane."
Maura can see Jane fidget, obviously a little embarrassed to ask something. She doesn't like to guess but has a pretty good idea what the problem might be.
"I'll start the shower... And undress you if you like." She winks and speaks in a low seductive tone.
The honey blonde leads Jane into her master bathroom, where she is stopped and pressed up against the sink.
Jane kisses Maura tenderly while carefully hooking her thumbs under thin dress straps, sliding them off her shoulders. It drops to their feet and Maura gasps at the sudden rush of cool air.
Jane's hands behind Maura's back but hesitates. "Um... Can you... Uh. Help me out here. Can't get that off."
Maura waits for Jane to move her hands and reaches behind to unclasp the black lace piece of clothing. That too joins her dress on the bathroom floor. Maura doesn't waste time before removing Jane's shirt. She presses a palm against her toned abs, making Jane moan.
"God, Maur... The things you do to me. You've barely touched me and I'm already soaked because of you."
"Mmm... I can't wait to find out just how soaked you are." Maura finishes undressing Jane, the emotional and intimate moment turning them on even more.
Jane delicately brushes a finger across Maura's cheek, the smaller woman sighing at the touch. They lean in for another earth shattering kiss, breaking from it when the need for air becomes too great.
Maura goes to turn on the shower, but doesn't get in right away. She can't keep her lips away from Jane's for too long and goes in for a third kiss, the steam from the hot water fills the room within minutes.
They break from the kiss and finally get into the shower. Jane winces at the contact of water against her bandaged hands but relaxes when the hot water soothes the aches in them.
Maura seductively runs her hands through Jane's wild mane, spreading and lathering the shampoo in it. Jane closed her eyes in complete bliss and happiness.
When Maura was finished with that, she kneels to the shower floor to wash her legs and more sensually, her ass, squeezing them with reverence. She slowly lathered the soap and body wash along every inch of her, then let the water rinse it down the drain. Jane opens her eyes and groans when she feels Maura's tongue glide up her thighs a few minutes later.
"Maura..." She breathily murmured, missing the smirk while Maura continues her path upwards.
Her tongue teases her entrance for a moment, but she doesn't want to wait any longer to taste her. Maura pushes her tongue in and Jane nearly screams. She alternates between licking and sucking until Jane's legs start to wobble. Maura can tell she's close so she inserts a single digit and curls it upwards and touches those soft walls.
Only 30 seconds of this had passed when Jane finally came. Maura stands and grips her hips to hold her up, then kisses the detective back to her senses.
Jane rests her hands on Maura's shoulders and waits for her ragged breathing to calm as the shower's water started to get a little bit cold.
"Let's get dried off."
"What about you?" Jane asks.
"I'll get a proper shower in the morning."
Jane smirks and says "That's not what I meant."
"I know... But this isn't about me. I wanted to please you."
"You did that... Very. Very. Well." Jane accentuates each word with a kiss sweeter than the one before. "I want to make love to you... And I plan on doing just that. I won't let this injury stop me."
Maura smiles and nods, then the two get out to dry off. She changes Jane's bandages for her and they go to the bedroom without putting clothes on.
Jane lies down on the bed then instructs Maura to get on top of her. She does so, and their centers touch.
"Oh..." Maura gasps, and Jane rocks into her.
"I love feeling you against me like this. It's so hot..."
All Maura can do is moan and continues grinding into Jane as she whispers sweet nothings to her.
Jane senses her starting to unravel. "That's it baby... Come for me."
"Ahh... Jaaaanneee!" She yells and collapses onto Jane's chest out breath.
She kisses Jane's breast and trails her lips up to meet Jane's, both smiling into the kiss.
"I love you, Maura Isles."
Maura feels the tears well up in her eyes and replies "I love you, too."
They continued making love until they fell asleep, happier than either had ever been in their entire lives.
The next morning all three, especially Jane and Maura for obvious reasons, wake up feeling very refreshed despite the early hour.
Maura gets up to make fresh coffee in her special machine, Jane and Frost join her in the kitchen to watch the long process.
"The joy of controlling how the hot water rises before a torrent of pressure penetrates the tamped beans." Maura smiles as the hot water makes a burning sizzling noise.
"Ok, I'm done watching coffee porn." Jane laughs and goes to look for instant but doesn't find any.
"I'll go get us some coffee, you don't have to do all this." Frost offers, feeling guilty and also just in need of some coffee.
"You two are so impatient. Trust me, this will be worth it." Maura assures, and then the coffee is finally done.
After putting it in some mugs, Jane and Frost blow on it to cool it down some before taking a sip.
"Wow... This is amazing. Now I know why you go through all that. It makes it taste so good." Jane takes another sip of the delicious beverage.
Frost is clearly enjoying his too much to say a word, and Maura smiles proudly at the two. She drinks from her mug for a few minutes and says "I'm going to get a shower, I'll be back in about 20 minutes."
Frost and Jane sit at the kitchen counter drinking their coffee. Jane can't wipe the grin off her face, and he notices.
"You look really happy... it's like you're glowing almost. What's up?"
"Last night... We said we loved each other."
He isn't shocked at all hearing this, it was obvious Jane loved Maura the second she saw her. "I'm really happy for you two, congrats. You guys are perfect for each other."
"Thanks, man."
They talk about random things for a half an hour when Maura walks back into the room and places her arm around Jane's waist.
"We have a car coming for us and our stuff. There's a café in the airport we can have breakfast in before we get on the plane. I know how you two feel about airplane food, I don't really like it myself either."
Jane and Frost agree that's a good idea and they all get their bags ready to go. 10 minutes later, a car arrives and takes them to the airport.
They take their time eating, in no rush at all. Making small talk until their number is called. When they get up and head to the gate, they hear voices calling after them. Jane, Maura, and Frost all turn to see the Ballard men and David standing there.
"We had to see you guys off. Couldn't let you leave without saying a proper goodbye to all three of you, now could we?" The lieutenant rhetorically asks.
The four men had been in the hospital to see Jane, and had spoken with Maura and Frost at the precinct but most of the talk was about the case. They said their farewells to them separately but wanted to see them one last time.
"Just had to thank you all again for your help and incredible work. We wish you guys nothing but the best of luck and happiness in your lives."
The three of them thank James for his kind words, and give them all hugs goodbye. The final calling for their flight was announced over the loud-speaker just as Jane hugged the lieutenant.
"That's us. I'm sure we'll see each other again sometime. It was an honor working with all of you. Trevor, it looks like we'll spar next time, huh?"
"You got it, Frost."
David and the Ballard's say goodbye again and wave as the three walk to security, which only took a few minutes to go through. There wasn't any lines or waiting to board the plane, so they got on right away.
"I'm definitely not going to be able to open the peanuts." Jane jokes with Frost as they sit down.
"Like you could so well before." Frost mutters with a small chuckle.
Jane smirks but ignores him and comments "First class is really nice. Way better than coach. Oh, sweet! We each have our own little TV to watch a movie."
Maura had made sure to upgrade their tickets to first class, the two detectives said no and that it wasn't necessary but she insisted and there was no arguing with her. Both knew how stubborn she could be, just like Jane. They figured they would just let it go and pay her back somehow without her realizing, but knew it would be a difficult task seeing as how smart she was.
This flight was much more comfortable, and since they were wide awake they didn't fall asleep towards the end of the flight, only to be woken by captain's voice telling them to buckle their seat belts. Now their batteries were fully charged when the plane touched down.
The excitement of finally being back home in Boston was unmistakable among the small group. The weather was definitely not as hot as Stad Van Hitte, which was a welcomed relief by each of them.
"It feels so damn good to be home finally." Jane remarks as they go through Logan International Airport, Maura and Frost are quick to agree.
Outside, there's a taxi truck yet to pick up any passengers. So Frost hurries over before someone else has a chance and tells him they need a ride. The man gets out and helps Frost with their bags and places them in the large and very spacious trunk.
"When do you have to pick up Bass?" Jane asks Maura, was watching the busy Boston streets she missed so much.
"Tomorrow, before my friend has to go to work."
"That works out perfectly... Would you wanna meet my Ma and have dinner at my house?" Then Jane blurts out nervously "Unless you think it's too soon to meet her and stuff or have to do something else."
Maura kisses her and says "It isn't too soon and I would love to meet your mother. Dinner sounds wonderful. Is what I'm wearing suitable?"
After a happy sigh of relief, Jane says "You look amazing as always. Ma won't care what you wear."
"My mothers and step brother will be there, too. I think this is supposed to be a welcome home dinner."
Frost saying his mothers being there reminded Jane of something. "You think Robin brought her potato salad? Hers is the best!"
"Knowing her, probably. Can't wait to have your grandmother's famous gnocchi. Your Ma is one hell of a cook."
Just hearing them get excited made Maura more excited than she already was. The truck finally arrives at Angela's house and pulls into the driveway. The cabbie gets out to once again assist with the bags, Jane has him place hers and Maura's by her car to be put in the trunk when she gets the keys from Frankie. She had given them to him for safe keeping before she left.
"Your childhood home is beautiful, I can tell a lot of fun memories must have occurred here. It's a very warm and inviting house, so much love." Maura comments on Angela's house, the place where Jane grew up and spends her free time.
"Thanks. I wonder why my mother hasn't run out of the house yet screa-"
"JANIE!"
Jane chuckles. 'Speak of the devil...'
Angela stood in the doorway and bolts over to Jane, and carefully but tightly envelopes her into a hug.
"Jane Clementine Rizzoli, don't you dare leave me ever again. Oh my poor baby."
Maura nearly wept at the beautiful and happy reunion as she and Frost stood to the side watching the display.
"I missed you too, Ma. So much."
The Rizzoli matriarch squeezes a little tighter before releasing her grip, then smiles at Maura.
"This must be the famous Maura my Janie hasn't stopped talking about."
Jane blushes at this, and Maura goes to greet Angela politely with a handshake. "Mrs. Rizzoli, it's so great to finally meet you. Jane told me a lot about you."
The handshake is ignored, and Maura is brought into a tight hug as well.
"It's great to meet you too, sweetie. I always wanted a doctor in the family!"
"Ma!" Jane yells at her as her blush gets darker, but Maura giggles and is completely alright with what her mother said.
"And you Barry Frost! Don't think you can get out of a hug from me either mister." She wraps her arms around him and he hugs back without protest. "It's good to have you back, honey. Your mothers and brother are in the house with my boys. We're making dinner. You three must be famished after such a long flight, come in, come in."
"We sure are, Ma. I can already smell the food, you made my favorite didn't you?"
"I sure did, sweetie."
They all go into the house, Maura by Jane's side and she couldn't help thinking 'Everything is perfect. I have the love of my life and my family, all here under the same roof. Life couldn't get any better.'
Some smut and soooo much fluff. Excited to read what you guys think. :)
