Hi everyone, here's the usual: I don't own, but love to borrow the characters for fun!

Jane sits at her desk and contemplates Frost and Korsak, especially Frost.

Hmmmm. They're playing it cool right now. They know Maura and I are 'together' because Frankie claimed the winnings. They don't know that I know that they know or that I know about the bet. What is the best strategy... A sneak attack type of revenge and blindside them or should I fire off a warning shot and let the worry torture them for a while? I believe I like torture better.

Jane crumbles up a piece of paper and lobs it in a high arch to hit Frost on top of the head.

Frost raises and eyebrow and looks over to Jane. She is staring at him with a smirk on her face. He swallows. "Can I help you with something, Jane?"

Jane sits upright in her chair and calmly leans forward on her desk. "I know."

Oh, shit. Play it cool. Joke with her. She can't know. "You know? I'm sure you are plenty knowledgeable about lots of things, Jane."

Korsak looks up, but stays silent. Watching Jane and Frost is like watching a cat with a mouse. Jane is about to pounce on Frost, but she's playing with him first.

"The Bet. I know about the Bet." Jane's voice is deceptively soft.

Oh, shit, oh, shit, oh, shit! "The Bet?" Frost actually squeaked.

Korsak dropped his eyes down to his desk. Avoid eye contact!

"Ya huh. Heard YOU were the mastermind behind all this."

"Mastermind? No, uh, nah. I wouldn't call it a mastermind. Maybe I organized some of it, cause you know, I know computers and can organize things pretty well." Shut up! You are babbling like an idiot, like a perp in the interrogation room.

"Right. Hey, old man! Don't you go looking all innocent over there. I know you had a hand in all this too."

The image of the housecat enlarged to a mountain lion now that Jane's focus turned to him.

"Awww, Janie..."

"Don't you 'Janie' me right now, Korsak." Jane wasn't really mad at the guys. She was so happy in life right now, but they didn't need to know that.

"Ok, Jane. We didn't mean any harm by it. We all KNEW you and Maura were meant to be together. To make it more interesting for us, we, well, oh, hell, you know what we did."

"Well, I think you two owe Maura and me a lunch."

Frost snorts. "Have Frankie take you ladies out. He won the money."

"Yes, but you came up with the bet."

"So, it's true? You two are now a couple?"

"Do you really think I'm going to talk to you about my private life after what YOU pulled?"

"Aw, c'mon, Jane. What did you do this weekend?"

Jane thought about everything they did and started to blush. "She wanted to go shoe shopping, so we went."

"You HATE shopping, especially for shoes! Did you complain a lot?"

"NO! I did not complain!"

Frost laughed. "Jane, you are whipped already!"

Jane throws another paper at Frost; this time at his face. "Am NOT!"

"Move your stuff over yet?"

"What?"

"Oh, c'mon. You know the old joke."

Jane shakes her head no.

Frost gulps, realizing that he might be in trouble. "What does a lesbian bring on a first date?... A UHaul."

Korsak's eyes go wide.

Jane jumps up from her chair. Her voice comes out a low growl. "I am NOT a lesbian and I certainly have not moved in yet."

Frost thinks of different escape plans. What can I say to deflect her anger from me? Why doesn't the phone ring? Isn't there a murder to solve? "You haven't taken her on a date yet?"

Jane opens her mouth and then shuts it. We've been doing what we always do, we go out to dinner or bring dinner in... A date? Should I plan a date?

Maura walks in to drop off some results. She can sense the tension in the air. Jane looks very angry and she is staring at Frost. Frost and Korsak both look like they are holding their breathds. She walks over to Jane and puts her hand on Jane's arm.

"Jane, is everything all right?"

The tension melting out of Jane is visible to everyone. The guys look at one another, one with an eyebrow raised the other with a nod. Dr. Isles is the human tranquilizer for Detective Rizzoli. Good information to have.

Jane smiles as she looks down into Maura's eyes. "Yes, everything is fine. We were just discussing when Frost and Korsak here are going to treat us to dinner." She smirks at the guys.

Frost is about to deny treating, especially now that Jane had upped it to dinner, but Maura walked over and smiled at him and Korsak.

"Oh, isn't that lovely. Thank you gentlemen for your generosity. What night are we going out."

Korsak is the first to respond. "Any night that works best for you Maura."

"Why not tonight, since it's Friday night. The Dirty Robber?"

There are nods all around. "Very well. Have a good afternoon. I'll see you later Detective?" Maura gives Jane a wink and walks out with an extra sway to her hips.

Jane sits back at her desk when Maura is out of sight. "I'm not the only one whipped in here, but I do know that I AM the only one going home to her." Jane smirks at the guys.

Frost throws a paper Jane. "Ya, ya, ya."

Line

Jane is finishing the paperwork to their last case and her mind keeps wandering back to Frost's comment about a date. Am I being a bad girlfriend? When we go out to dinner, are those now 'dates'? Should I ask her on an official 'date'. Guys have taken her to all the nice retaurants and show and stuff. I have to plan something different. It's winter, Sox aren't playing... I have to think...

"Earth to Jane!"

"What, Frost!"

"I said, do you want to go grab a coffee?"

"Sure, I need to get away from the desk for a bit."

In the elevator, Frost clears his throat. "Uh, everything good with you and the doc?"

Jane raises an eyebrow. "Yes."

"Well, I mean, she seems pretty happy."

Jane smiles and mellows a little. "I hope so."

"And you?"

"Ya."

They walk over to the coffee dispensers. Jane can tell that Frost isn't done yet.

"So, uh, are you like the guy in the relationship?"

Jane's mouth falls open and she almost drops her coffee. "What? Seriously?" She punches Frost in the shoulder.

"I am a WOMAN. Got it? I mean, is that really hard to remember?" She mumbles under her breadth about stupidity while Frost is rubbing his shoulder.

Cavanaugh walks over. "Is there a problem over here?"

"Uh, no sir! Frost had a fly on his shoulder and I know we don't want any flies in the cafeteria, sir, so I took care of it."

"Is that so, Detective Frost?"

"Yes, sir!"

Cavanuagh looks between the two of them, shakes his head and walks away.

Jane looks at Frost. "You are such an ass."

"Sorry!"

Jane decides to grab an extra coffee and go visit Maura. She doesn't trust herself to go back to her desk yet.

Jane finds Maura in her office, places the coffee on Maura's desk and sits down on the couch with a sigh.

Maura turns in her chair and contemplates her girlfriend. "What's troubling you, Jane?"

"I'm so new at this and Korsak and Frost are being idiots."

Jane pauses and Maura waits patiently.

"Am I the guy?"

"Excuse me?"

"Am I the guy in this relationship? Is there a 'guy' in women relationships? I don't want to sound dumb, Maura, but do you know what I mean?"

Maura thinks about how to best phrase what she is about to say. "Jane, there are no 'guys' in female relationships. There may be times, say in sexual positioning, that one may be more dominant than the other, but that is also situational and the women take turns. When we get married, I mean, when two women get married, they are both 'wives'. Two men will both be 'husbands'. Ok?" Oh, I hope she didn't hear that slip! Too soon to be planning a wedding, well, too soon for her to know!

"Ya, I think so."

"Now, you are a police detective, so it comes naturally for you to protect people. That is YOU, Jane, not just a guy thing. I will do my best to protect you."

Jane looks up to Maura and smiles. She stands and pulls Maura into a hug. "Thank you, Maur. I'm sorry for freaking." She kisses Maura's forehead.

"Don't worry about it, Jane. If you ever have any questions or concerns, please talk to me about it." Maura snuggles into Jane's arms a little more.

"Ok, I think I'm ready to deal with the idiots upstairs. I'll swing by later to pick you up for the Robber?"

Maura gives Jane a quick kiss to her cheek. "Sounds wonderful. I'll see you later, Detective."

Jane walks out with a smile on her face.

Line

Jane and Maura walk into the Dirty Robber and spot Frost at the bar and Korsak in their usual booth. The rest of the afternoon had been quiet up in the bullpen. The usual chatter was somewhat subdued.

"Why don't you go sit with Korsak, I'll grab a beer and your wine and join you in a minute."

Maura nods and walks off toward the booth and Jane goes to the bar to stand next to Frost to place her order.

"Jane, can I talk to you?"

"I dunno Frost, when we talked earlier, it didn't work out too well, did it?"

Frost hangs his head in shame. "Yea, about that. You know, I only meant to tease you, but it totally backfired on me. I know you dated guys, but I seriously thought you also dated women and thought you would call me on my stupid questions."

"What do you mean?"

"Oh, hell, Jane. My mom has been in a relationship with her female 'room-mate' for years now. I'm totally cool with that. She would smack me upside of the head if she heard me talk to you like I did. So, I'm really sorry, ya know? And I made sure the bet was only with people that cared about you and Maura and wanted the two of you together, not like that asshole, Crowe. I got your back, partner."

"Ok."

"Ok?"

"Ya, ok! I still owe you for organizing the bet."

"Yup, I understand."

"And maybe a little more for the shit you gave me this morning."

Frost nods. "I understand." A glint enters his eyes. "So, about that UHaul..."

Jane punches him again. "You are a total asshole, ya know that? I'll let you know after I take her out on our first 'official' date."

"So you really haven't?"

"We've been doing our usual hanging around and dinners, but I am planning something awesome for next weekend." She winks at Frost as they head to the booth.

Jane sits next to Maura and makes sure she brushes Maura's hand as she slides the glass of wine in front of the woman. They had decided to keep their new relationship relatively private and limit PDAs until they came out more publicly.

"Remember Maur, order the most expensive items on the menu 'cause the guys are paying!" Jane smirks at the men.

"Jane, what if I don't want the most expensive item. I would rather order what I want."

Jane rolls her eyes, but pats Maura's hand. "It's kinda a saying, Maur, that winners say to losers that hafta pay. Of course you can order what you want."

The waitress comes over to introduce herself. "Hi, I'm Tiffany, I'll be your server tonight. Would you like a couple of minutes to decide?"

Frost girns at Tiffany, petite, blond, 24ish, very nice. "Hi, Tiffany. Are you new to the Robber?"

Tiffany smiles Frost. "Yes, I started working here yesterday." Everyone at the booth says hi and welcome to her. Maura notices that Tiffany's eyes linger the longest on Jane.

The evening continued. They placed their orders, laughed, joked and teased. Things were back to normal. Tiffany's service was adequate (in Maura's thoughts). Frost continued to flirt with her, but Tiffany's attention was mostly on Jane. Maura started to get a little irritated.

"Hey, Jane. Want to play a game of darts?"

Jane smiles. "I'm always up for a game of darts! You wanna play Maura?"

"No, I believe I'll watch you three and have another glass of wine."

"Jane looks for an open stool near the dartboard. "Ok, we'll pay the blll, free up the booth for other customers and hang out by the board."

Tiffany comes over with the bill and places it in the center of the table. "All set?" She watches the nods at the table. "Well, if there is anything else that you want," she turns and lightly touches Jane's shoulder, "you let me know."

Oh, that's it. Luckily Jane seems clueless, but I'm not. Maura threads her arm through Jane's and places her hand on top of Jane's. "No, I believe WE are all set." Maura raises an eyebrown and looks directly at Tiffany. Tiffany jerks her hand away from Jane. "Yes, all right. Thank you."

Frost and Korsak burst into laughter as they watch Tiffany's retreating figure. "Nice one doc!"

Jane looks confused. "What? What did she do?"

Korsak only shakes his head. "Jane, when it comes to you, you are totally clueless! Let's go shoot some darts."

Jane turns to Maura. "What just happened?"

Maura smiles into Jane's eyes and pats her hand. "I'll explain later."

Jane shrugs and and grabs the darts from the dart board. "How are we doing this? How about if you two go first, I'll play the winner?"

Jane watches the guys and leans against the bar and watches Maura watching Frost and Korsak. She is so adorable. Look at her. She's their cheerleader. She is so beautiful.

"You're up, Jane!"

Jane goes up to take her turn against Frost. Korsak heads to the men's restroom. Maura sits back and watches her girlfriend. My girlfriend. I still can't believe SHE is MY girlfriend. Look how focused she is on the game.

Maura is so focused on Jane, she doesn't notice the slighly inebriated man approach her. He sits down next to Maura and begins to make small talk with her. Maura does her best to be polite, but discourage any advances that he tries.

Jane glances over her shoulder and sees a tool chatting it up with her girlfriend and that Maura looks uncomfortable. Jane decides that she is thirsty and hands her darts to Korsak. "Here ya go Korsak, take my turn."

Jane heads over to Maura and leans in with her whole body to grab her beer, causing said tool to back up a step.

"Everything ok here?"

Maura smiles up at Jane. Jealous Jane is so sexy.

The man isn't thrilled with the apperance of the woman's friend, she had the look of a cock-blocker. "Everything is fine, so why don't you go back to your little dart game."

Jane raises an eyebrow at him. "I think I'm all set with my game and will just hang out here for a while."

"Three's a crowd darlin, why don't you go take a walk and let me continue to get to know this gorgeous lady here."

Frost is watching what is going on and starts to head over to give Jane backup. He feels a hand grip his arm.

"She's got this. She's Jane Rizzoli. Sit back and watch. We're close enough if she really needs help."

Jane stands taller and has her most menacing face on. "You're right, three is a crowd. Get lost asshole."

The man blinks and warning signals are being sent slowly to his brain. "Listen sister, I ain't going anywhere. I like your friend here and want to get to know her in the biblical sense, if you know what I mean."

Jane feels the urge to wrap her hands around his throat, but knows it could turn into a barroom brawl. She has a better idea.

"Like this?" She leans down and kisses Maura passionately on the mouth.

"Right." The man turns and walks away.

Korsak and Frost laugh and clap each other on the back. My partner is totally the guy in that was about to punch that guy out!

Jane breaks off the kiss and looks into unfocused hazel eyes. "Ready to go back to your place?" Her gravelly voice whispers softly in Maura's ear.

Maura can only nod. She is such the guy in this relationship and I love her for it!

Had a little trouble with this chapter. I wanted to set the characters up for future chapters and Frost looked like an idiot at first. Hope he came out the way I wanted. As usual, love the reviews! They make me so happy. Love to PM with you also. Everyone stay healthy! Hugs!
