Janes heart pounded in her chest when she woke up to an empty bed, her gut ached and the lump in her throat made it harder to breathe.
"Maura?" Jane shouted frantically, checking in the bathroom "Maur?" Jane grabbed her gun off the bedside table and tucked it into her pyjama pants. "Maura?" Jane shouted as she ran down the stairs, waking Angie up.
"Jane, whats up?" a half asleep Angie asked groggily
"Maura. She's gone" Jane replied bursting through the front door, hoping to find her in the street
"What do you mean gone?" Angie asked, rubbing the sleep from her eyes
"I mean, I wake up this morning and she's not there!" Jane snapped punching the wall
"I'm sure theres a reas-"
"-Well, you had better be 100000% sure on that. They found us last time" Jane butted in whilst looking at her cut up knuckes "I can't let them hurt her again, Ange" Jane's eyes filled with tears, both of anger and of sadness
"You wont" Angie put her Special Agent head on "I'm sure there's a reasonable explination but just to be onte safe side, you phone Doyle and i'll phone Sash" Angie rubbed soothing circles between Jane's shoulder blades
"I can't just sit here and wait" Jane pushed Angie off her and grabbed the keys from the bowl
"JANE!" Angie shouted after her as Jane pulled away in the black, undercover sedan
Jane's fingers tapped the wheel anxiously as she drove around the streets looking for the woman she loved, she had no idea where she was looking or even if she was going to find Maura but she couldn't just sit and wait. She couldn't just do nothing. She had been driving for 45 minutes when the shrill beeping of a mobile in the glove comartment caught her attention.
"Hello?" Jane answered
"Rizzoli, get home now!" Angie spat down the phone
"I can't"
"Jane, she's fine. She just went for a run. She's saf-" Jane hug up the phone and spun the car around and pressed the gas peddal to the floor. As she pulled to to the quiet family neighbourhood, she spun the car into the drive way, the tyres screeching and leaving tyre marks and smoke behind them. Jane shot up the driveway and slammed the door shut behind her. Maura was sat in the kitchen with a cup of coffe and Jane stormed into the kitchen slamming the door behind her.
"WHAT THE HELL, MAUR?" Jane snapped
"I'm sorry, Jane" Maura replied in a quiter more relaxed tone
"WHAT WERE YOU THINKING? JUST GOING OFF LIKE THAT. ON YOUR OWN, NOT TELLING ANYONE?"
"Jane, please" Maura pleaded
"NO MAURA. I WAS WORRIED SICK. THAT IS THE SINGLE MOST STUPID THING YOU'VE DONE, EVEN MORE STUPID THEN SLEEPING WITH CASSIE. I THOUGHT YOU WOULD KNOW BETTER. HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO PROTECT YOU IF YOU'RE NOT HERE TO PROTECT?" Jane snapped back
"I just needed to clear my head. I needed to run. I needed to be alone, I haven't been alone for months. Even when i'm in the shower you're guarding the door"
"WELL, UNTIL THIS IS OVER, GUESS WHAT, YOU'RE NOT GOING TO BE ALONE. I UNDERSTAND YOU NEED YOUR SPACE, I UNDERSTAND YOU'RE STRESSED TOO, I GET IT MAUR, BELIEVE ME I DO BUT WHAT WERE YOU THINKING, NOT TELLING ME OR ANGIE? WE WOULD HAVE COME WITH YOU, TRAILED BEHIND YOU!"
"Look, what's done is done. I needed to be alone, I needed space. I got it and it was worth the trouble it's dredged up"
"WHAT'S DONE IS DONE?" Jane snapped, turning away from Maura and rubbing her eyes, trying to relieve some of the stress and anger that was surging through her body "WHAT IF YOU HAD BEEN KIDNAPPED? MURDERED? FOLLOWED?"
"Well, I wasn't-"
"-YOU WEREN'T KILLED OR KIDNAPPED BUT YOU COULD HAVE BEEN FOLLOWED. FOR ALL WE KNOW THEM FUCKERS COULD BE PLANNING A RAID AS WE SPEAK!" Jane snapped, punching the door again. She couldn't feel the pain in her hand right now, she was too mad.
"Jane, i'm sorry, okay?" Maura stood up, taking Jane's busted hand in hers
"No, Maur" Jane pulled her hand out of Maura's and stormed out of the kitchen
"Jane" Maura called after her as Jane stormed up the stairs
"She just needs to clam down" Angie stroked Maura's arm, trying to comfort her "Just give it an hour or two" she smiled
(-)
The angry pounding on the door made Jane and Angie reach for the guns holstered on their hips.
"ANGE, OPEN THIS FUCKING DOOR NOW!" the deep, angry voice shouted
"Dean? What the hell?" Angie splurted as Dean pushed past her
"JANE?" Dean shouted as he looked in the living room and then the kitchen
"Dean?" Jane asked, surprised to see the man she once loved
"WHAT THE FUCK?" he spat
"Hey! Dont you dare start with me!" Jane snapped
"It's nice to know your alive!" Dean snapped
"What's that supposed to mean?" Jane snapped back
"You know full well what I mean, you just dissappear and then don't bother telling me, or even your mother you're safe?"
"Well, you know all about dissappearing, don't you?" Jane growled
"Oh, you're bringing my job into this?" Dean spat
"You're bringing mine into it! You dissappear for weeks on end without a word, and now i'm undercover-"
"-Undercover?" Dean spat "You're harbouring a fugative!"
"Harbouring a fugative?" Jane spat back
"Yes, your job was to go in and get both Paddy and Maura and put them behind bars, that was nearly 3 months ago and you've done neither of those things!"
"I've gotten closer to puting Doyle behind bars in 3 months than you have in 10 years, and i'm just a homocide detective. Oh, and what's Maura done to be put behind bars?"
"You didn't do your reading did you 'Detective Rizzoli'. She's wanted for the murder of 4 people, one of them her mother. Not to mention, drug laundering, human trafficing and countless other offences!" Dean spat
Jane's heart fell heavy in her chest, she knew Maura, she was innocent on all of those charges but hearing the words come out of Deans mouth made her wonder.
"So, where are they?" Dean broke her from her thoughts
"Were are who?" Jane asked
"Don't play dumb with me Jane, I've known you for 7 years! Paddy and Maura, I know you know where they are!"
"Well, 'Agent Dean' you obviously don't know me that well, I have no idea where they are" Jane lied, hoping Maura would stay where she was
"Is this really what it's become?" Dean asked "You're just as bad as they are, the Doyles. You're just the same as them"
"GET OUT!" Jane snapped
"You heard her!" Angie growled as she stood behind Jane, showing Dean who's side she was on
"No wonder you got kicked out" Dean looked Angie up and down in disgust "You're a traitor"
It took both Angie and Jane everything they had not to shoot Dean right now.
"And you" Dean turned back to Jane "You're a disgrace to the force, to your family and to yourself"
"Oh I am, am I?" Jane laughed "Thats why i'm so close to putting Doyle behind bars is it, in 3 months i've made more progress than you could have hope to have made in 10 years? Why don't you do us all a favour and get the hell out before I shoot you where you stand, oh, and another thing, i've been screwing someone else for the past 2 months, well, it's more than screwing, it's love, yanno, actual 'head over heels' love, the type of love I thought I felt for you and the sex! You should really read 'sex for dummies' because for the first time in 7 years has sex been earth shattering, that someone thats not myself or a vibrator has given me an orgasm. You can take the engagment you morealess forced me into and shove it up your ass!" Jane smiled before walking off
"Don't let the door hit you on the ass on your way out" Angie laughed sarcastically as she pushed the shell shocked man out of her house
"Did you mean that?" Maura asked as she emerged from the top of the stairs
"Mean what? That I love you, the earth shattering sex, the orgasm thing? Yeah, I mean that" Jane smiled
"No, that you're gonna out me and my father in prison" Maura said coldly
"Things have changed, Maur" Jane smiled as she stroked Maura's arm
"ENOUGH WITH THE LIES!" Maura snapped, pulling her arm away from Jane's touch. Her eyes were filling with tears "FOR ONCE, TELL ME THE TRUTH!"
"Maura" Jane pleaded
"NO, JANE. I DESERVE THE TRUTH, THE WHOLE TRUTH. If I mean anything to you, you will tell me the truth" Maura sniffled as she wiped the tears rolling down her cheek
Jane took a deep breath. She knew she couldn't hide it from Maura any longer. She loved her, she at least owed her the truth, the whole truth.
"Fine" Jane started "What Dean said is true...was true. I'm a homocide cop and they brought me in because apparently I was the only one who could do the job, it baffles me why they never got Sasha or Angie to do it but anyway...I was supposed to make you fall in love with me-"
"-Check!" Maura snapped
"Maur, you wanted the truth, let me finish. Anyway, you already know this, my feelings changed when I got to know you, I fell in love with you, I fell in love with you so hard, and then, like everything else it changed. I made a deal with Paddy, I protect you from the Donagals and in return, he hands himself in"
"What did you think was going to happen when you arrested my father? That i'd just brush it off?" Maura spat
"No, I didn't know. I didn't want to think of what life would be like without you"
"Don't go acting like that now!" Maura growled "Well, consider me protected but the second you wack the cuffs on my father thats when you never speak to me again"
"Maur" Jane wiped her tears away
"Don't 'Maur' me, Detective Rizzoli. This is your job, so do it!" Maura spat before walking upstairs to the bedroom and slamming the door shut.
WAAAAAH! I'm mean, I know. I hope you guys liked it! What did you think of the whole Jane/Dean arguement? Do you think Maura will ever forgive Jane? Anyway, lemme know what you think and what you'd like to see happen. Much love:*
