Hi all. Here's the usual. I don't own, I only borrow to have some fun. Want to join me in the fun?

Jane pulls into Maura's driveway around 9:30 in the morning. She gathers Jo's leash, dog food, a bag full of bagels, coffee and orange juice and heads into the house.

"Hello..." Jane puts the food on the island and leans over to take the leash off Jo. "There you go girl, go find Bass for a little while before you go next door."

Jo goes running aroud looking for her friend. Bass! Where are you?

Under the side table, Jo.

Wanna play 'hide and seek'.

Jo, you are only staying here about an hour, not a week!

Ok, Bass. I forget.

How's little Watson?

Good. Mom doesn't let me play with him. She's worried that I'll treat him like a rock and bury him, but I wouldn't do that to Watson! He's my little brother!

I should hope not! Jo, do you know what your Mom has planned.

I may have heard something when she was talking on the phone... Jo leans forward on her two front paws and wags her tail. I think your Mom will have lots of fun. My Mom really worked hard on this.

Are you going to tell me?

I'll whisper it in your ear. Bass, where is your ear? Oh, there it is!

Maura walks down the stairs looking gorgeous as ever in a skirt and sweater.

"Good morning, Jane. What did you bring?" Maura reaches up and kisses Jane lightly on the lips.

Jane pulls Maura in for a tight hug and nuzzles Maura's neck. "I bring nourishment to start our adventure."

"If you keep nuzzling my neck, our adventure will be upstairs in my bed."

"Hmmmm, sounds tempting, but..." Jane jumps playfully away from Maura to hand her a glass of juice. "Drink."

"Are you going to tell me where we are going? Am I dressed appropriately?"

"Well, I'll give you a hint since you'll find out as soon as we get in the car. We're heading south." Maura rolls her eyes as Jane looks her over. "You look great, but another hint is that we'll be in and out of the car a few times, so will you be warm enough in the skirt?"

Maura observes Jane's clothing, nice, but casual. Black dress boots, black pants and a sweater. Maura decided to keep her top and shoes, but change out of the skirt. "Would you like to see what I packed for tomorrow?"

"I think that might be a good idea. Remember, we will be outside for a while tomorrow and I want you to be warm."

They finish their bagels and juice and head to Maura's room to look through Maura's bag.

"Maura! We're only going overnight!" Jane sees 2 bags and a smaller bag for shoes.

"Well, I wanted to cover all options! You didn't give me much information!"

Jane sighs. "Let's get you down to one bag, shoes included"

"But..."

"No buts! Let's see, no, no, yes, why not..."

"Wait! Don't look in that small bag!"

Jane raises an eyebrow.

"That's my special surprise for tonight."

Jane feels her mouth go dry. "Ok, That's a keeper."

After 15 minutes, they have Maura down to one, slightly bigger bag to include shoe options and Jane carried it down to the car.

Angela walks in the kitchen as the ladies pack a goodie bag for the road.

"Are you girls all set? Are you going to call me when you get where ever you're going to let me know you are all right?"

"Ma! Don't worry, we'll text you. There's Jo's food and leash."

"You're not going to tell me where you are going?"

"Angela, she won't tell ME where we are going. This is a mystery trip."

Jane bites her tongue. She will clarify later to Maura that this is a mystery DATE, but not in front of her Ma. Jane looks at her watch, 10:30, first destination takes approximately an hour and 20 minutes, so it's time to go.

"Ready everyone? Bye, Ma. Love you. Jo, be a good girl for Gramma. Maura? Where's your coat?"

Maura watches as Jane tries to get them all moving in the right directions. She shoos Angela and Jo out the door, grabs Maura's coat and helps put it on and grabs the extra bagels and juice. Maura feels Jane's hand on her back as she is propelled out the door.

"Jane?"

"Hmmm?"

"Are we travelling far?"

"Not saying Maura."

"Jane, I'm only offering my Prius to save on gas."

Damn. Didn't think of that.

"Good idea, Maura. Let' me move my bags."

Maura watches Jane move an overnight bag, backpack and GPS.

"What's in the backpack?"

"Stuff..."

They get in the car, Jane sets the GPS and they are off. Jane glances nervously over to Maura. I really hope she likes this weekend I've planned. I think she will. It's different. She reaches over and grabs Maura's hand. They chat as Jane drives, and Jane suggests another bagel.

"Why, Jane?"

"Please, Maura? Let's at least split one. And water."

"All right, Jane. You are acting strange."

Jane grins at her. 20 more minutes.

Maura hears her phone bing with a text message."

Angela: Where are you?

Maura: Some place in Connecticut

Angela: What town?

"Jane, what town are we in? Angela wants to know."

"What? No! Give me that phone!"

Jane pulls over and takes Maura's phone.

Maura: This is Jane! STOP! This is going to be a surprise and WE will text you TOMORROW!

Angela: LOL You caught me! Sorry, being nosey!

Maura: Well, stop it. Goodbye!

Jane gives the phone back and starts to mumble. It has been difficult enough to distract Maura whenever she saw a sign for their destination, she didn't want to ruin the surprise by two junior detectives.

Soon they turn down a road, travel a little while and come into view of a giant red barn. The sign on the entrance read, "Sharpe Hill Vineyard."

Maura's eyes go wide when she reads the sign. "There's a vineyard in Connecticut?"

Jane nods. "There is a Wine Trail in Connecticut, Maura. Ready to go in?

They follow the signs, pay for a tasting and bring their tickets to the tasting bar. They read what is being tasted today and the wine server places two glasses in front of them.

"Good afternoon and welcome to Sharpe Hill. Is this your first visit with us?"

Jane and Maura smile and nod.

"Wonderful. Let me get your wine passports for the trail and I will be happy to be the first stamp in your passport. I'm sure you will find something here you will enjoy. Today you will be tasting five wines. Let's begin with the first."

Maura sips her wine and then takes out her phone.

"What are you doing?"

"I'm taking notes! I want to make sure I remember which ones I had and why I liked them."

Jane listens as Maura questions the wine server on the types of grapes that are used and if any are imported for the different wines. She leans back and enjoys the wine. I do believe this is going to be a fabulous first date!

Maura is very excited. "Can I order a case? And do you sell in the Boston area or ship directly?"

Jane smiles. "What is your favorite?"

"Oh, I simply adore 'Ballet of Angels'."

They make their purchases, and carry the bottles and glasses out to the car. "Ready for the next one?"

"Now I understand why you insisted on the bagels. Yes, onward!"

They travel through the scenic countryside of Connecticut. Now that Maura knew what they were doing, Jane shares their itinerary for the day.

"Jane, this is so exciting. Look, we have passbooks! We'll have to come back another weekend and get even more stamped. Thank you!"

Jane grins. "I'm glad you like this Maura. We can come back and do more whenever you want."

Their next stop is Jerram Winery in New Hartford, Connecticut.

"Good afternoon. My name is Dely and I will be your wineserver this afternoon. Is this your first visit with us?"

"Yes, this is a very interesting building. Was it originally a barn?"

"Yes, as a matter of fact, I redesigned the original horse barn this was into what it is today."

"You have done a fabulous job! And you stayed?"

"They are hoping to create more buildings and I want to be around to help."

Passport stamped, wine purchased, wine glasses wrapped and they are back in the car.

"Are you doing ok, Maura?"

"Of course I am, Jane. I would say we have consumed 2 glasses of wine in the past 2.5 hours and we have been drinking water in the car. You were very prepared."

"I tried my best."

"How many more?"

"Only 2 more. I didn't want to drink too much and try to drive."

"Very intelligent and responsible decision, Jane."

"Thank you, Maura. I do have ulterior motives."

"And do you care to share those motives."

Jane grins as she turns to Maura. "I want to be completely sober when I make love to you tonight."

Maura feels her heartbeat speed up and her center get wet. Oh, my.

"That's an even better reason, Jane. Do we have a room nearby?"

Jane lowers her voice. "Yes, we do Doctor. We have a room at the last vineyard we will visit today. A little impatient?"

Maura licks her lips. She loves Jane's voice. "I would be lying if I said I wasn't."

"Good things come to those who wait. Here we are..."

Maura looks at the sign, Sunset Meadow Vineyard. "Oh, I like the name."

"Let's go see if we like the wines. We haven't been disappointed yet, have we?"

By now, the ladies are old pros. They purchase their tasting tickets, get their passports signed and go to the wine bar.

"Good afternoon, ladies. Welcome to Sunset Meadow. My name is Lore and I'll be your wineserver today."

Jane smiles at Lore. "Can you tell us more about this vineyard?"

"Yes, of course. The farm used to raise beef cattle and hay. The vineyard was established in 2003. Would you care to tour our production room today after your tasting?"

Jane looks at her watch and decides that they have enough time and looks to Maura.

"I would find the tour fascinating. Thank you."

Both ladies enjoy the tour, asking intelligent questions as the tour progressed and each came out with a better understanding of the wine making process.

"Still feeling sober Maura?"

"Sober? Well, I may be slightly less than sober..."

Jane laughs. "Good thing our next stop is only a short distance away and we can check into our room."

Maura reaches over and trails her hand up Jane's thigh.

Jane inhales sharply and grabs Maura's hand.

"Driving here, Maura. Let's not crash this close to paradise."

"Since you put it that way... " Maura's hand stills and holds onto Jane's hand.

"Kinda the last stop. The vineyard is here and the inn right over there. Why don't we have the taste and watch the sun go down. Then, we'll head to the Inn for dinner and a nice evening in our room. How does that sound?"

"I agree we should eat and build up our strength for this evening."

"Okayyyy. Right, my thoughts exactly."

Jane and Maura try to calm themselves and not rush through their last tasting. They sit at the wine bar and watch the sun set over Lake Waramaug.

Maura looks over at Jane. "This is perfect, Jane. Thank you for such a wonderful day."

Jane feels her heart swell. I love this woman. I am IN love with her. "Anything for you, Maura. Would you care to go to dinner now?"

Maura nods her head and they thank their wineserver.

They go down the street and check into the inn.

"We have reservations for 7:00 if you would like to go up to the room and freshen up."

Jane grabs their bags and they make their way up to their lake view room.

The women stand in the room decorated in floral patterns and antiques. They look at one another and feel the magnets pulling them to each other.

"Maura. You stay over there and change if you want. If you get any closer, we won't be eating dinner and I think we really should."

"I totally agree, Jane, but it's hard to stay away."

"We can do this. Think of the tension that will be building during dinner. You go into the bathroom and I'll change. Then we'll switch."

Jane and Maura make it out of the room and feel safer in the dining room.

"Jane, drink water and hydrate. We've both had enough wine for today and I don't want anything to hinder our activities this evening."

"Yes, Doctor."

Maura orders the Vegetable Platter and Jane orders the Salmon with Herb Butter. They chat as they eat their dinner.

"This was a wonderful mystery trip, Jane."

Jane clears her throat. "Actually, Maura. I kinda consider this our first official date. You know, we became a couple and I never took you on a real, official date."

Maura feels tears fill her eyes. She reaches over and grabs Jane's hand. "Jane, this is the most wonderful, most perfect first date that I've ever been on. Thank you."

Jane smiles and leans over to kiss Maura. "My pleasure, Maura. Anything for you."

Jane keeps hold of Maura's hand and traces patterns on it. Soon,she feels Maura's foot run up and down her calf.

As the waitress walks by, Jane waves her over. "Please charge this to our room, thank you." She grabs Maura's hand and leads her out of the restaurant.

Once up in their room, the women came together before the door was fully closed.

Tonight is all about Maura. Jane tangles her hands in Maura's hair and kisses her passionately. She kisses her way down to Maura's neck and gently sucks on the pulse point she finds. She can feel Maura's hands work their way under her sweater and onto her heated skin.

They break apart long enough for sweaters to come off. Jane groans as she sees the lacy, black bra Maura is wearing. Maura smiles and slowly unzips her skirt, letting it fall to the ground to show the matching black lace thong she is wearing. Jane takes a moment to stare at the perfection in front of her. Maura walks over to unzip Jane's pants. "Off." Jane quickly moves to satisfy the request (order?). Thank god I'm wearing the new underwear I bought.

Jane looks up to see Maura walking toward her, still in her high heels. OMG, she looks like she's hunting me. I have to get control of this.

Maura kisses Jane and whispers in her ear, "Do you know how sexy you are, Detective?"

"No, Maura, YOU are the sexy one. Come to the bed."

"In a minute. Let me taste you." Maura has magically undone Jane's bra and sucks Jane's nipple in her mouth. Jane groans at the sensations of Maura's tongue and teeth on her breast.

Maura leans Jane against the wall and slips her fingers into Jane's panties. "Jane, you are so wet for me." She strokes back and forth, spreading the wetness around and slides two fingers in. Oh, Jane feels so wet and tight. I want her to cum as she is standing here. Maura plunges her fingers in and out and feels Jane shift so that she can spread her legs wider. "Maur, how do you do that? Uh, feel so close. Maura continues, faster, deeper, her thumb brushing back and forth against Jane's clit.

"Maura Muar, oh, god, " Jane explodes into pieces, head thrown back, gasping for air.

Maura nuzzles Jane's neck, fingers still deep within Jane, waiting for the aftershocks to stop. I almost came just by listening to her. I love her voice, it is soooo sexy.

Jane feels herself coming back to earth. Not quite what I had planned, but now I'll be more in control. Takes the edge off. Jane swings Maura into her arms and carries her to the bed.

"My turn."

Maura looks into the Jane's eyes and catches her breath. Jane pulls off Maura's bra and fills her hands with Maura's beautiful breasts. Squeezing, massaging, mouth going to one and sucking the nipple into a hard nub. Her other hand tweaking it's twin to the same state. Maura's back arches to push her breasts up for the attention. Jane presses her thigh between Maura's legs, feeling the heat and wetness from Maura's center. Maura begins to thrust against Jane's thigh. She waits for Jane's hand to drift down to bring her to orgasm, but is shocked when she feels Jane's mouth leave her breasts and travel down to her stomach. Jane hooks her fingers into Maura's thong and pulls it down and off her legs. This is it. I will do this. Jane places kisses on Maura's inner thighs. Her warm breath ghosting across Maura's clit. Maura 's hip launch off the bed when she feels Jane's tongues run up her slit. "Jane!" Another lick, Another groan. Angela said to listen to her. I understand. I love her taste. Why was I worried? Jane attaches her mouth to Maura's clit and sucks. Jane places one hand on Maura's pelvis to hold her down. She hums and sends vibrations through Maura's core. Maura's head is whipping back and forth and her hands reach down to entangle in Jane's hair, pulling her closer. Jane flattens her tongue for the next few licks and listens to Maura's moans. She's close, so close. Jane thrusts three fingers into Maura as she sucks once again on Maura's enlarged clit. "Cum for me, Maura." Fingers thrust faster.

"Janeohjanejane" and she let's herself go..

Jane crawls up and tucks Maura into her. "Rest, beautiful."

"Mmmm"

Ok, it's very late for me and early for others. I hope you enjoy this chapter. I really wanted to put it out tonight. What can I say, but thank you all. Thank you for such wonderful review and PMs. They inspire me. You are awesome! You make me laugh, say "awww" and sigh in contentment. You are the best!
