Where do we go from here Chapter 26
Maura silently crept into Jordans bedroom and smiled as she looked at the sight that lay before her. Jane was asleep, her long body hanging over the end of the bed, with Jordan laying on top of her. Both of them had been sick the last two days and Jane was trying to avoid contaminating Maura, although the blonde had begged Jane to sleep in bed with her. Both of her loves had been throwing up and Jane had taken a cough that was rattling her chest but at this moment both of them had found peace. They were in a deep sleep, Jordan had her thumb in her mouth and Jane had her hand wrapped around the small waist, keeping their darling girl safe in her arms. The blonde crept forward intending to pull the blanket over the two in bed but Jane stirred and Maura found herself captivated by the exhausted bloodshot eyes of her wife.
"Hey Maur." Janes voice was even more husky than usual, which on any other day would be stimulating areas that are best not thought of at this time, Maura thought to herself.
Maura leaned forward to kiss Janes lips lightly but the detective turned her head presenting the blonde with her cheek. Maura noticed there was still some fever and she was pale but she looked a little better.
"Did you sleep much?" Maura asked quietly while leaning over to kiss Jordans head. Jane nodded and tried not to cough but couldn't stop herself and Jordans eyes wearily opened. Maura watched as her beautiful gaze looked around the room. Her eyes appeared clear today, suddenly her beautiful eyes met Mauras Hazel ones and the young girl launched herself up "Ama Aura!" Jane and Maura both grinned, her speech had improved a lot but occasionally there was a slip and they loved it.
Maura pulled her into her arms "Good Morning my love, how are you feeling?"
"I feel good, can we have ice cream for breakfast?" Maura arched her eyebrow at Jane.
"Detective?" Jane smiled "hey squeaker we only had ice cream the last two days because you had a sore throat. If you feel better then I do not think Ice cream would be the best breakfast." Jordan looked down and snuggled closer to Maura.
"I think I still have a sore throat Mama." Maura tried not laugh but found it hard to contain herself.
"Why dont I take squeaker down to breakfast and you can go shower and rest?" Maura said kissing Janes forehead.
"Yeah I can use a shower. Where is Jo at?" When they had fallen asleep the previous night Jo had been asleep at the Detectives feet and barely left their side while they were sick. "I gave Jo friday breakfast and let her go potty outside." Jane nodded then eased herself up shaking her head to clear the dizziness and fog that seemed to occupy her brain at the present moment.
"You want to try coffee, honey?" Maura asked, wishing she could heal her lover. It is hard when the ones you love are sick or hurting and there is nothing to do to make them better.
"Tea?" Jane questioned and Maura was glad she was holding Jordan tight otherwise she might have dropped her. "No panda poop though."
"OK baby, go shower." Jane arched her eyebrow "Do i stink or something?" Maura smiled and winked "I plead the fifth, Detective." Jane looked at the woman who stood before her, the woman they once called names, the one who hid away from the world. She had blossomed into an amazing woman and wife, mother, and daughter and Jane was grateful for whatever role she had played in the blossoming of this beautiful rose before her.
"What?" Maura asked as she was about to head out the door with Jordan.
"Do you know i love you?" Jane asked with a lump in her throat that had nothing to do with illness.
"I do, and i do love you too." Maura blew a kiss to her and Jane could hear Jordan giggling as the tickle monster was attacking her.
"Mommy, no no no, not the tickler, im gonna potty." Jordan squealled and giggled. Jordan always said she was gonna pee when she got tickled but as soon as she was released she became the tickler. Jane heard Mauras beautiful laugh and thanked God just as she did everyday for the blessings that were in her life. Maura was close with Constance and Hope, Angela thought of Maura as a daughter she never had (which Jane was ok with because thats the daughter who got to shop and get dressed up.) The brunette took a long hot shower letting the hot water soothe her muscles and help wash away the fatigue that was plaguing her. Once she was out she heard Maura talking to Angela.
"Speak of the devil." Jane mumbled. The brunette pulled her hair in a ponytail and pulled on sweats and a property of BPD baseball jersey. She was surprised it was in the drawer as generally Maura beat her to wearing that jersey. When the Medical Examiner went out she was the epitome of Beauty. Dressed to the nines and radiating beauty and grace, but at home Maura was a lot more relaxed than when they first started hanging out. She always wanted to look her best for Jane (Once Jane had been told this she let her doctor know in no uncertain terms that there had never been a moment she had not radiated beauty.) Maura teased her letting her know she needed an eye exam.
"My eyes see fine Maura Dorthea Isles. My eyes see a woman who shines brighter than any star in the sky."
"Did you know the stars you see, have already died." Maura asked her and Jane just grinned and shook her head. This was her doctor.
"Feel better?" Maura asked walking in the bedroom door and shutting it behind her. She pulled the detective against her stomach and rested her forehead on the top of the detectives.
"Anytime you are next to me I feel amazing, love." Jane whispered and kissed Mauras stomach lightly. Her hands slid under the silk pajama top Maura was wearing and Jane smiled as she felt the change in her wifes breathing. She grazed her fingertips across the tightened abs smiling at the groan she heard.
"This is not why i came up here, Jane." Maura whispered throatily.
"Why did you come up here, Doc?" Janes hands wrapped around Mauras waist and one hand lightly smacked the doctors ass causing the blonde to jump.
"To check on you." Maura whispered.
Jane flopped backwards on the bed, "Then check me out, beautiful." Janes hand was stretched outward as she lay across the king size bed, and Maura grasped the hand knowing she would be pulled down. She felt Janes forehead glad to know there was no fever but she still seemed a little pale.
Jane pulled Maura so she was straddling the detective and her tongue sought out the hardened nipples that were obvious through the soft shirt. Janes teeth pulled on the nipple and flicked it back and forth with her tongue. Maura started to grind against Jane quickly losing her reasoning. It had been several weeks since they made love and one touch from Jane had her going from 0 to 100 in moments. "Fuck baby." Maura groaned as she positioned herself on Janes hip bone which caught her clit just right.
"Im trying." Jane whispered and eased her hand underneath Mauras pajama bottom. Jane could feel the moisture that had spread quickly showing just how turned on the blonde was. Jane pulled Mauras hair to the side and ran her tongue up the doctors neck and whispered raspily in her ear."You are my everything Maura, you are my love." Soon Janes thumb was pushing in on her clit while one finger was teasing her wet and throbbing lips. Within several moments Maura was riding her lovers adept long fingers and barely avoided screaming out her release. Just as the Medical Examiner was about to pull away Jane moved so that Mauras thigh was between her legs and with a couple of thrusts was shaking with her own release.
"Damn." Maura whispered.
"Hey Doc, I feel much better but lets be clear, nobody aside from me gets that housecall."
Maura Laughed and pulled her detective tight against her.
