Jane was doing good. It had been a week since she and Maura announced their feelings for one another. They were working on their relationship. Building up trust along with making sure Jane stayed sober.

Today was a big step for the detective. The Rizzoli's had their family dinner tonight. Maura got wind of it from Frankie and figured since Jane's family didn't know that she was out of rehab.

Jane sat in the car nervously. Just seeing her family and knowing that they knew about her drug use she would get the fourth degree, made her that way.

Walking into the house, Maura went first and Jane could hear Angela's squealing as a welcome. "God, I can only imagine what she'll say when I walk in." She said still standing against the wall outside the front door.

"Angela, I brought you all a surprise." Maura said sweetly then turned to watch Jane walk through.

Ma gasped, Frankie and Tommy grinned.

She stood and waved slightly to her family. "Surprise..." She said out of the side of her mouth.

Angela rushed to pull her daughter into a hug. "Oh honey! I thought you weren't getting out until another month.

"I signed her out into my care. She..." She didn't want Jane to get into trouble with her mother. "I knew she would do better with me than being alone in that room they placed her in."

The older Rizzoli looked back at Maura with a smile then looked back at Jane. "Janie... you need to hold on to that one." She turned to bring the doctor into a tight hug. "Thank you for taking care of her."

Jane smiled as Maura looked over Angela's shoulder smiling back at her. "I wouldn't be Jane's best friend if I didn't take care of her."

Angela pulled back and they all sat down to dinner. Jane sat by Maura and smiled over at her.

"So Janie, how you holdin up?" Frankie asked. Tommy wasn't saying much, he had his eyes on Maura.

"I'm doin' good. Maura's made sure of that." She looked over at her secret girlfriend and smiled. She noticed that her youngest brother had been eyeing Maura since she got there. "Actually, she and I have something to tell you."

Maura smiled and took Jane's hand.

"We're actually dating." The detective said with a proud smile. Her nervousness surprisingly going away. Tommy was the only one surprised.

Angela and Frankie laughed. "You mean you weren't before?" they said in unison.
