A/N Sooooooo unbelivable sorry for not updating! I haven't gotten the time to write nor updating! So yup.

1 MONTH LATER

Maura had finally got over Ian, and was ready to move on. Jane had been there for her all the time, and has truly been the best. Maura was now positioned in her couch with her white blanket, and was about to fall asleep when somebody knocked on the door. She got up and realized she was only wearing a bra and her thong. She put the blanket around herself and went to the door.

The wooden floor was cold as it hit Maura's Dorsal Surface when she tip toed over it. She opened the door and almost stopped dead in her tracks. Maura just stood there with her mouth open, tried to get words out. ''Hope'' she managed to stammer. She realized her forearms weren't covered, she started to panic and slammed the door closed. She ran to her bedroom grabbing a random long sleeve and kept praying to God that she hadn't noticed anything. She also put on some yoga pants, because going out in a pink thong would be rather... Awkward.. . She ran back again, hearing an engine to a car starting, and the blond ran out bare feet to stop Hope. 'Stop!' She shouted. She waved in-front of the car to signal her to stop, and so She did. Hope got out of the car and locked it again and went back into the house.

"What was that all about, if I may ask." Hope said nipping on som tea that had recently had been made. Maura felt panic but managed to get out some words. "I just I um.. I wasn't quite dressed under that blanket and I thought you were Jane" Maura drank her tea while an silence grew between them. Hope kept giving her looks. Not like mean looks but worried ones. Oh my god what if she had seen them?! . "So, I heard about your fiancé.. I'm deeply sorry and you got all my condolences." Hope patted her arm but Maura flinched away. The new scars made her arm sore, and she didn't want Hope to clean them either. Hope noticed Maura flinched, but she was too scared to ask.

"I heard... Paddy.." Maura nodded. Hope got up and hugged her, then sat down and held her arms and looked into her eyes and was bout to say something, when Maura pulled away and held her hand palms on her arm as if something was hurting. "..Maura? Are you.. Ok?" Hope automatically gestured to Maura's arm. Maura -again- nodded and continued stirring her tea. Hopes mind flashed back to when she saw Maura's bare arms. "I.. Noticed.." Hope said quietly, Maura looked up. "Noticed what?" Maura started to shake. She felt the room spinning. This feeling was so sudden, she almost passed out. "The scars.. But! I won't ask. It is non of my business. But I can see that you were nervous so I assumed.. But if ever you need someone .. im here" Maura smiled towards Hope. Mouthing 'thanks' and smiling a little bit. "But promise you won't say anything..please" Maura said to Hope. Hope nodded as an answer.

"Wait, why did you come over anyways?" Maura said. "Uhm.. It's Cailin. " Maura was now the one to hold the other ones arm in a comfortable way, soothing. "I am leaving America to go to Europe and I was wondering if you could watch her. Maybe just go to her and see if she's ok but I wouldn't want to pride. " Maura nodded. "She can stay here if she wants to?" Maura asked smiling. She had been lonely, but if it was okay for both Hope and Cailin, she had to be careful. Hope said she would talk to Cailin, and call her up later to let Maura know wether she wanted to stay or not.

1 Week later, saturday.

Maura was walking down the morgue, and was just finished with the autopsy. She has thought about Ian and was mad at herself for loving the guy. She sorted out her papers and was about to leave when her mind went back to an unopened cold case that she, Jane and Frost had tried to solve. She went back to her desk drawer and picked it up. "Woman 31, pregnant 12 weeks, American. Shot then the killer had cleaned the wound and then she had been strangled." Her head kept thinking of that word; pregnant. She had been pregnant with Ian's child, and then miscarriages without even knowing she had been pregnant. How could she be so dumb. She was a doctor, she thought forgetting about the time. The store was closing in 30 minutes, and Cailin had requested Mozzarella Pizza for dinner. Maura had only said yes because she was craving it, and only the thought made her drool.

Maura came home with the groceries wondering where Cailin were. "I'm home" Maura yelled trying to close the door with her heel. She almost dropped the groceries when she saw Cailin making out with a black haired man. They didn't hear me, she thought. "IM HOME" she yelled a little bit louder, making sure they had heard her now. Pretending she hadn't noticed anything, she sat the groceries on her kitchen Island. The man had now turned around and had gotten up. Maura also turned around feeling herself getting so angry she could feel her body shiver, she went over to the man and slapped him across the face. Not hard enough though, she thought. "Tony you filthy pig!" Maura said. Tony DiNozzo. Her co agent many years ago. "What?" Tony replied giving her the "DiNozzo charm". "How could you she's only 17!" Cailin also got up now. "Maura!" Cailin gave her an unpleasant look and was probably about to give her the "I am aloud to date whom and what I want without your permission. You are not my mother!" Speech. And so she did. Leaving the word dating off, of course. "And I'm 18 now! So I can do exactly what I want!" Cailin snorted. "You aren't 18 until about what..? 6 months?!" Maura said, realising Tony started to drool over something I would have called a 'cat fight' . Maura turned to Tony and gave him the death glare and pointed towards the couch. "Your not my mother!" Cailin responded. "Well I am your sister! Now go to your room!" Cailin stood there gaping until she went away, but suddenly turned adding "HALF sister!" . Cailin went to her room slamming the door shut behind her. Maura just shook her head. She went to sit down besides Tony rubbing her temple. "Why did you make out with her Tony?! She's only 17 and your what like 40 or something?!" Tony looked at Maura, or as he knew her; Kate. "38 Kate." He rubbed her back. "It won't happen again, and besides . She kissed me" he gave her the DiNozzo charm and let go of her back. Maura shook her head again to tired to argue and laid down on the couch so that she could lay her feet on Tonys lap. A signal that he could start to rub his feet. "Why did you come here, Tony?" Maura questioned. "I have spoken to Vance about the secret service program. And I told him I knew, but that I wasn't going to tell anyone. And I promise I won't tell a living soul , Kate-" Maura smiled at herself. "Don't ever use that name again. In Maura now. Maura Isles. Chief Medical Examiner of the Commonwealth of Massachusets. "

Tony stopped rubbing her feet when they both heard something break from upstairs. Something off glass most likely. Maura got up from the couch like a rocket, and went over to the stair case. She heard more stuff slamming on to the floor, Tony grabbed his gun, and Maura ran upstairs. She opened the door to Cailins room seeing her younger sister dropping down on the floor besides the wall, crying hysterically . She waved off Tony a signal for him that everything was OK. "Cailin, Honey" Maura said, easing down besides her. "D-dh-on't t-touch m-meh" Cailins said between her sobs . Maura put her arms around her stroking her back. "Cailin what's wrong?" Maura were thinking that Cailin have had a Melt down or some sort of Panic attack/Anger attack.. "Cailin, sweetie.. Talk to me" Maura tried to comfort her but Cailin didn't want to be comforted, Maura realised as Her sister rose up on two feet, Maura did the same. "You.. You hate me!" Cailin pointed at Maura. "Everyone does! That's why my mom dropped me off here, so she shouldn't have to deal with me anymore.. So she could go to Europe for fun!" Maura could see Cailin was crying. "Cailin.. I Love yo-" Cailin interrupted her;" Don't! I know that inside you don't. And even if you do, I will never believe you. Because how can ANYONE 'love' me if I can't even like MYSELF!'' The ME now heard Cailin was in a not very sober state. She could hear that. She now noticed that her eyes were glassy. "Cailin. Have you been drinking? Sweetie please sit down." They sat down at her bed, and Maura rubbed soothingly circles at her back . "Honey, speak to me." Maura tried. Cailin turned her head against Maura, facing her. "Stay with me,Maura" but something was wrong . It wasn't she. Or the words that came out of her, the sound was Cailin but, it was Jane's voice . Maura felt her head being dodged to the ground, her whole body got numb.
