Ever since Angela had moved in with Korsak things between Jane and Maura have been going pretty well. They had their nights alone, cuddled up and just together, they still haven't had sex yet, they both figured they weren't ready yet. Jane has been getting Maura's confidence back up slowly, they did happen to make out quite a bit though. Jane often made Maura breakfast, and Maura was the one to make dinner, they had a nice little routine going.
They had invited people over around 2 in the afternoon so they could spend some of the beginning of the day alone. Jane was currently making herself a sandwich for lunch, Maura just put the chicken in the oven. They had decided against turkey Jane claimed it was always so dry. "Did you want half of my sandwich? Cooking always makes me hungry."
Maura shook her head, "No I'm fine, thanks for asking. I honestly don't know how you can eat so much and still keep your figure, I'm kind of jealous. I always feel so bloaty when I eat too much."
"You would look good no matter what Maura, I promise you," Jane spoke with some sandwich in her mouth. Maura laughed, going over to wipe the mayonnaise from the corner of Jane's mouth with her finger before licking it off.
"I really wish you wouldn't talk with your mouthful Jane, it's not considered polite," Maura gave her head a shake before going to attend to prepping the rest of the food, it wouldn't have to be cooked until a little later. Jane was halfway done with her sandwich when she heard a knock on the front door.
"Ugh, who the hell is that?" Jane groaned, putting down her sandwich and went to answer the door. "Pop, what are you doing here?" she frowned looking up at her father, she hasn't talked to him since they talked on the phone weeks ago.
"Tommy had invited me to come with him, but I figured nobody would want to see me, but I wanted to see you even if just for a couple of minutes. You never made plans to meet up with me when you called a while back," Frank explained to his daughter. "Can I come in please?"
Jane just looked at him, "Fine, but only for a couple of minutes," she hesitantly stepped to the side, letting him in.
He stepped inside and looked around. "Nice place you have here, this Dr. Isles must be loaded."
"I don't recall telling you who I was dating when we talked. Tommy told you, I bet."
"He does like to talk, but you shouldn't blame him. You're happy and I just... I wanted to see it for myself."
Jane shook her head, "I don't blame him, he didn't completely abandon us, unlike you. But water under the bridge."
"It doesn't seem like it, but I don't expect you to ever get over with what I did. I completely understand."
Maura came out of the kitchen when Jane didn't come back, she stood looking at the man in their house that she recognized at Frank Sr. "Mister Rizzoli, I didn't expect you to be here. Merry Christmas."
Frank turned to look at Maura for a quick second, "Merry Christmas Dr. Isles," he greeted before turning back to Jane. "At least she knows how to properly greet someone." Jane rolled her eyes at his words.
"Alright, you came, you seen my partner, you can go now."
Maura walked up next to Jane resting her hand on her shoulder. "Actually, I have to discuss with him something Jane, if you don't mind." Jane turned to Maura, silently asking if she's sure. Maura just nodded.
"Okay, I'll go finish prepping dinner," she kissed Maura's cheek before turning to her father. "Merry Christmas Pop," Jane sighed and went into the kitchen.
Frank Sr. looked at Maura and smiled, "What did you want to discuss?"
Maura turned to the kitchen for a moment before looking back at him, "Can we talk on the porch, it's sort of a private matter."
"Sure," Frank Sr. headed out onto the porch, Maura followed and closed the door behind her. "Is Jane alright?"
Maura nodded, "Yeah, she'll be fine. I know she isn't really fond of you since you left Angela, but she's pretty happy with where she is now so I think Jane will lighten up eventually."
"You're pretty involved with my daughter, aren't you? Tommy was telling me about everything, you know he's the only one of my kids who still likes keeping in touch with me."
"Yeah, I've noticed. Anyways, I'm glad you came because I wanted to ask you something. I know in a heterosexual relationship the guy usually has the awkward conversation with their partner's father about asking permission for a certain next step in a relationship. You see where I'm going with this?" Maura looked up at him, he nodded.
"I think I have a pretty good idea of what you mean, I didn't realize your relationship with my daughter was that important to you, I didn't know it was serious. You seem like a nice woman with a very nice place and I just want her to be happy. You must make her very happy," Frank smiled, resting a hand on her shoulder. "You have my blessing, me and Angela always thought Janie should end up marrying a doctor. I kind of figured it would be a woman Jane would want to be with. I could sense it, growing up and her failed relationships with men. I am glad she is able to be herself around you and in general."
Maura smiled, "We make each other very happy, Jane has been very amazing to me, I think having a couple of years of friendship does that to people. Thanks for your blessing."
Frank nodded, "Of course, I just, I have a favor to ask. When you guys do get married, I well... could you try to convince Jane to let me walk her down the aisle?"
Maura took a second before nodding, "I'll see what I can do."
"Thanks Dr. Isles. You guys have a good Christmas together, alright?"
"Yes of course, and please you can call me Maura," she smiled and Frank stuck out his hand which Maura shook.
"Bye," Frank said before heading back to his car. Maura took a minute before going back inside.
Jane looked at her suspiciously. "Is everything okay?"
Maura smiled, "Yeah things are great. He likes me so that's a good thing. Can I have the other half of your sandwich now?"
Jane smirked, "Of course," she slid the plate over to Maura. "You just wanted him to like you?"
"Yeah, I just wanted to make sure I was welcome with all your relatives. He's glad you're dating a doctor."
Jane looked at Maura eating her sandwich and Jane had a thought, she was going to wait until later, but she couldn't hold it in much longer. "Maura, before everyone comes over and we don't get time alone, I was thinking that I could give you a present a little earlier. It's kind of personal."
Maura looked up at Jane and smirked, "That's a good idea, I can give you a present too, I'm pretty sure you're going to like it."
Jane kissed Maura softly before leaving the kitchen to go grab a box she had hidden up in the guest room, she placed the box on the coffee table, meeting Maura as she came with a smaller rectangular box. "You open yours first?" Jane asked, feeling antsy Maura nodded.
"Of course," Maura unwrapped the box and she smiled, there was a coat she had seen when Jane and her went window shopping a couple of days ago. There was also a pair of boots.
"I got you those boots because I remembered how you looked wearing mine when you gave up on wearing heels, I got you a pair in your size of course," Jane explained and Maura leaned over kissing Jane on the lips.
"Jane they are great, thanks, but I don't see how a coat and boots are personal."
Jane smirked, "There's something else it's in one of the boots, but before you open it I wanted to explain something beforehand," she ran her hands over her pants and Maura nodded. "Maura, you are the most important person in my life and I am thankful everyday that I get to be with you, this past month has been amazing, I got to take care of you and it was nice. I felt domestic and so comfortable, and ever since we have been living alone, we've grown closer than ever, and I swear I didn't think it was possible. My life has been something quite amazing with you in it, and I want to spend the rest of my life with you. I can't imagine my life without you in it. I want you to be a part of me until the end of time, you're my partner and I am never going to let you slip away. I love you Maura Isles," Jane finished her speech before grabbing the boot it was in and let it slip out. She handed Maura the small box after she opened it, already in tears, Maura had tears falling down her cheeks since Jane started her speech. "Maura Isles, will you do me the honor of becoming my wife... will you marry me?"
Maura looked at the ring and then at Jane, a smile on her face as she wiped away her tears. "Yes Jane. Of course I'll marry you Jane," she threw her arms around Jane, kissing her softly. Jane melted into the kiss, her hand resting on Maura's thigh. "I love you so much Jane Rizzoli," she grinned as Jane slipped the ring onto her finger. "This ring sure is something Jane."
Jane nodded, "I wanted to get you something elegant looking, because when I look at you I see this elegant person, so the ring should match my beautiful bride to be."
"I have a confession to make Jane. I was going to propose to you, I had it all planned out, I was still trying to find the perfect ring. We must be meant to be if we both had thoughts of proposing to each other," she ran a hand over Jane's cheek. "That's what I was really asking your dad permission for, I thought it would be a good idea to get the dad's blessing."
"That's very considerate of you Maura. I'm so lucky to have you. May I open my gift now?" Jane asked and Maura nodded.
"Of course Jane," Maura handed Jane the rectangular box. "I'm sure you'll like it."
Jane just smiled at her fiancee, "I like anything you do for me Maura," she opened the box and grinned, "You got me season tickets to next years baseball season? Maura that's amazing."
"Not just that Jane, it's season tickets for two people. Was thinking that you could take whoever you wanted with you if I was unavailable, or that you could give your tickets to someone if we both couldn't attend the game."
"People would kill for these Maura, these are amazing seats too."
"I had Frankie help me out of where the best seats were. You have something else in the box too," Maura pulled out the papers handing it to Jane. "I know you are pretty proud of being from Boston and everything Jane, but I was thinking that New Year's Eve in Times Square was the best place to be. I already made hotel and restaurant reservations for the whole weekend. Will you go with me?"
Jane nodded, "Of course I'll go with you Maura, I don't mind New York as a city. I always wanted to go see the ball drop in real life ever since I was a little kid. God Maura this is amazing. You're amazing," Jane leaned over and kissed Maura after putting the tickets back in the box and onto the coffee table. Maura's hand ran through Jane's hair as she pushed Jane slowly down onto the couch. Maura straddled Jane and pulled back slightly.
"We're both pretty amazing there Jane Rizzoli. What do you think of a nice spring wedding?" Maura looked into Jane's eyes and she nodded.
"A spring wedding sounds great, like when the snow starts to melt and things start to slowly come out and become new again."
Maura smiled, "That sounds really romantic, even though it would be hard to pick a date and then control the weather," she leaned back down placing slow gentle kisses along her neck. Jane closed her eyes, resting her hands against Maura's ass.
"Yeah, you make a very good point," Jane moaned out and Maura smiled against her skin, rolling her hips down against Jane's. "Fuck Maura."
Maura continued her movements, kissing Jane's neck as she massaged her ass in her hands. "Shit Jane..."
"I love when I can get you to curse."
"Just wait until you really get me going," Maura pulled back, taking some breaths, before kissing Jane on the lips, her hand sliding up Jane's shirt, finding her breast, massaging it. Jane could feel herself grow wet at Maura's touch. They moved their bodies together, moaning at the sensations their bodies were feelings. "Jane, I want to make love to you," she managed to get out in a moan. "But maybe not on the couch," she moved back and Jane nodded, stroking Maura's cheek.
Jane looked at Maura, "Yeah, but I'm not sure if I can make effort to walk up into our bedroom, I'm already so wet." Maura glanced at Jane and nodded and she got off of Jane before pulling her down onto the floor where laid some wrapping paper. Jane laughed, "That's not exactly what I had in mind."
"Jane, my couch is expensive, I can easily clean up the floor," she went to go straddle Jane's waist and leaned back down, continuing where they stopped. Their hips rolling against the others, getting the momentum back up. Maura took the shirt off of Jane and threw it, before she kissed down Jane's neck, moving towards her breasts, where Maura massaged one with her hand and kissed at the other one with her mouth. Maura's mouth moving towards Jane nipple where she slowly licked before lowering her mouth down on it, sucking at it.
"Son of a bitch," Jane tilted her head back, enjoying what Maura was doing to her. Jane's hands resuming position on Maura's ass. They kept close to each other, making the other feel good as the rest of their clothes were shed. Maura kissed down Jane's body going lower until she was in between her legs. Maura looked up at Jane before slowly licking her entrance, Jane shuttered at the feeling. "Fuck that... tongue... of yours."
Maura continued what she was doing with her mouth, until she slid a finger inside of Jane, Jane groaned out, tangling her hand in Maura's hair. Maura enjoyed the sounds that were coming from Jane, the moaning, groaning and the shout when her orgasm came.
Maura was so turned on by the sounds Jane were making, when she was finished Maura moved so she was straddling Jane's waist. Jane's eyes were closed, as she tried to catch her breath. "That was, God that was better than I had ever imagined," she breathed out, finally opening her eyes seconds later. She went to kiss Maura's lips when she heard the oven ding. "Shit the chicken."
Maura moved off of Jane, "Can you get that? I would hate if the chicken got burnt."
Jane nodded, going to stand up her legs wobbling as she stood up. Putting her shirt and pants back on. "I'll be right back Maura."
Maura just nodded, watching Jane head into the kitchen, she sat up and leaned her head up against the couch. She moved her hand in between her own legs, wet from pleasing Jane.
Jane went to go check on the chicken, sticking the themometer inside of it, before putting it back in the oven for thirty minutes. Jane got a drink of water, and then heard Maura moaning from the living room. Jane started to walk back and there Maura was, head leaning back and her hand inbetween her legs. Maura was finishing herself off, Jane thought that was the hottest thing she's ever seen. Maura biting her bottom lip to stop from shouting. She could tell Maura was close to her orgasm.
"Holy shit..." Maura moaned, feeling everything just let loose. Moments had passed and everything got silent, all Jane could hear was Maura trying to calm her breathing. Jane went to sit down next to Maura.
"That was the hottest thing I've ever seen," Jane spoke once Maura opened her eyes.
"I'm sorry I couldn't wait for you," she looked up at Jane who was grinning.
"Hey no, I definitely didn't mind the show," Jane reached for Maura's hand that was between her legs and she put Maura's fingers into her mouth, sucking off the juices that were on them. "Mm, Maura juices."
Maura blushed and then leaned over to kiss Jane, their tongues finding the others, she pulled back and smiled. "I do taste pretty good combined with the taste of your mouth," she smiled, before getting her clothes on, Maura rested her head on Jane's shoulder once they got onto the couch. "I love you Jane."
Jane nodded, playing with Maura's fingers, the hand with the engagement ring, "I love you too Maura," she bought the hand up to hers for a kiss. "I don't think I've ever been this happy in my life Maur."
Maura nodded, "I was thinking the exact same thing. You are my happiness. And you always will be. Merry Christmas."
"Merry Christmas indeed," Jane licked her lips, and just rested against Maura. She honestly would just prefer if it stayed like this and nobody came over. But two o' clock was coming close.
