Here's your second update for the weekend! Same disclaimer: I would love to own, but do not, so borrow for fun and laughter.

Jane hears her phone alarm ring off and stretches to put it on snooze. She glances down at the honey blonde that she is spooning. Her face warms at the memories of last night. Wow, I'm really surprised they didn't kick us out. Maybe because I registered as Detective Rizzoli? Jane grins thinking of how many times she brought Maura to orgasm. She is always beautiful, beyond beautiful, but when she goes over the edge, words cannot describe the sight.

Jane leans over and presses a gentle kiss on Maura's exposed neck.

"Good morning."

"Mmmph."

Jane gives a gravelly, chuckle. "Breakfast is calling us, Dr. Isles, and we have an appointment at 10:00."

Maura opens one eye. "Isn't that a little early for drinking wine?"

"Silly. It's a new day and a new adventure."

Maura rolls over at this news and opens the second eye. "New adventure? There is more to this date? Or is this our second date?"

"Oh, very good questions. Yes, a new adventure that is also a surprise. And can this count as our second date since it's a new day? It could be a very looong first date."

Maura stretches up to kiss Jane on the lips. "Breakfast?"

"Yes, I think I specifically hear French Toast calling me."

"Jane, you do realize that food cannot call out to you."

"Ah, there you are, finally awake. Well, you may not hear anything, but my stomach does."

Maura stretches her body and feels the delicious twinges of the exertions from the night before. Oh, my. What a night. We will have to have repeat performances - many of them, a lifetime of them. ! Lifetime? I'm thinking of the future again.

"I'm going to start the shower. Would you like a few more minutes to sleep."

Jane's eyes have drifted shut. "Mmmm."

Maura slips out of bed and starts the shower. She collects her shampoo and soap and enters the shower stall.

Jane's eyes open when she hears the shower. Who needs sleep, I believe Maura may need my assistance in the shower. Jane grins as she hops from the bed, fully awake now. Jane walks into the bathroom and slips into the shower behind Maura.

"I thought we should conserve water and shower together."

"So very thoughtful of you, Jane." Maura turns and watches the water cascade down Jane's body and feels core become instantly wet.

"Here, let me wash your back for you..."

40 minutes later, the ladies are out of the bathroom and getting dressed.

"Jane, I'm not sure how much water we saved 'showering' together."

Jane smirks. "I know, we got a little, um, distracted, didn't we?"

Maura smiles.

"Remember to dress warm today. We'll eat breakfast and come back to the room for our final layers."

"No clues?"

"Hmmm, outside."

"Sounds cold."

"This morning isn't supposed to be too bad. I heard that an arctic cold front is supposed to be moving in, but I think we'll be fine for the amount of time we'll be outside."

They walk down to the restaurant and place their order. Jane orders the French Toast with maple syrup and Maura orders a fruit platter with yogurt. They sip their coffee and hold hands across the table once they finish eating.

"Are you ready to go to our last destination?"

"I must admit, I am very curious and excited Jane."

Jane feels her heart expand. She is having so much fun surprising Maura. They go back to their room to make sure everything is packed.

"Maura, do you have your heavier jacket in the car?"

"Yes, Jane."

"Hat, gloves, scarf?"

"Yes, yes, and yes."

"Well then, what are you waiting for?" Jane winks at Maura and takes her bag.

Jane holds open the door for Maura and puts their bags in the back of the Prius. She moves her backpack closer to the front to be more easily accessed. Jane plugs in the GPS and turns on the radio and off they go.

"Has Angela contacted you anymore?"

"No, I promised her that I would text when we were on our way home."

"This must be killing her not knowing."

"I would say she is somewhat curious."

"Well, this exercise in patience in good for her. She will find out soon enough."

After about an hour, Jane pulls into a road with a sign reading Shepaug Dam.

"We're going to a dam, Jane?"

"Yes, Maura we are. And do you know why Maura? And why this dam specifically?"

"I must admit that I have no clue why to either of those questions Jane."

Jane grabs the backpack and has Maura put on her heavier coat. "Well, Maura, let me tell you. This weekend has been Bald Eagle Observation Days and this dam is specifically for Bald Eagle Viewing."

"Really? Oh, how exciting. Eagles are very majestic bird of prey, Jane. Did you know that Benjamin Franklin wanted the turkey has our national bird?"

Maura and Jane check in and look through the observation station. They see pictures on the walls and some fact sheets. Large windows overlook the dam and the water behind it.

"You can see them perched in trees and on good days, they will ride the air thermals or hunt for fish in the water."

Maura and Jane nod and thanked him for the information. Jane reaches into her pack for hand warmers and hands a pair to Maura. "Here, put these in your pockets and when your hands get cold, stick them in your pocket to warm up."

"Thank you, Jane."

"Here, I have a pair of binoculars."

They go to the window and watch patiently. They hear another person shout out that one has been spotted and the volunteer announced to the rest where to look. Jane pulls out a digital camera to try to take some shots.

"You have a Mary Poppins' bag!"

"Excuse me?" Jane laughs.

"You are ready for anything, aren't you detective."

Jane gives her a cocky grin.

They spend 2 hours the dam and are lucky enough to see 1 immature bald eagle and 2 mature bald eagles soaring over the dam. Maura was very excited when she was the first to spot one of the mature eagles.

"Oh, Jane! Look! Over there!" Maura is pulling on Jane's arm and pointing, bouncing up and down. The volunteer follows her arm and shouts out the location to the follow viewers. Jane loves seeing the excitement in her girlfriend's eyes. My girlfriend. MY girlfriend. God, I love her. Shit, what? Yes, for real. Admit it. Yes.

When there has been no sighting for about 30 minutes, Jane suggest they begin their journey home.

"Maura, if there is anything you want to stop and see, let me know, ok? Otherwise, we can make it home for the football games!"

Maura rolls her eyes at the mention of football, but will not complain. It has been a fabulous weekend and if Jane wants to watch some football while the cuddle on the couch, that's fine with her.

"Would you like to order some pizza to go with those football games?"

"That would be fantastic, Maur. You really are the best!"

Maura chuckles and pats Jane's leg.

"Do you mind if I text Angela now?"

"Go ahead. Say 'hi' for me."

Maura pulls out her phone and begins her text.

Maura: Angela, are you there?

Angela: YES! I've have my phone on me, waiting for your text! Tell me ALL about it!

Maura: She brought me down to CT to the CT Wine Trail!

Angela: They have a wine trail in CT? No kidding!

Maura: Yes! And some very good wines! I bought a few bottles.

Angela: A few?

Maura: Well, maybe a case or 2

Angela: LOL, what else?

Maura: We stayed at this lovely Bed and Breakfast at one of the vineyards. We had a room overlooking a lovely lake.

Angela: And what did you do today?

Maura: We went to the Shepaug Dam and observed bald eagles.

Angela: You had fun?

Maura: Very much!

Angela: Jane did a great job for your first date. And the sex?

Maura: Fantastic! The best I have ever had!

Angela: Really?

Maura: Yes, really.

Angela: Multiple?

Maura: Multiple multiples :)

Angela: And did she ...

Maura: Perform orally on me? Yes she did!

Angela: Oh, that's my girl! I am so proud of her! Tell her that, tell her that I am proud of her and WHY. lol

Maura laughs out loud.

Jane looks over at her. "What's so funny?"

"Angela says she is proud of you."

"For such an awesome first date?"

"Well, that too. She thinks you did a fantastic job on your first date."

"What do you mean, 'that too'?"

"She wants me to tell you that she is proud that you performed oral sex on me."

The car swerves before Jane pulls it back into their lane. "What? No! You are NOT discussing our sex life in text messages! Are you?"

"You said I could tell her what we did, Jane."

"Filters, Maura, filters!"

"But, I tell Angela everything."

"Am I going to have to learn to live with that?

"If it really bothers you, I could try to limit some of the information I give to Angela."

"Maybe we could try to come to some sort of compromise. Please? At least in the sex department?"

"I'm sure we can work something out."

"Thank you."

Angela: Did she freak out?

Maura: She was very agitated.

Angela: LOL, Poor Jane. Luv you tons, honey. Keep that detective of yours happy, She is a keeper.

Maura: I agree with you. Goodbye Angela

The rest of the ride home is uneventful. They change music stations, sing songs, talk of wines and eagles. As they get nearer to home, Jane slaps her forehead.

"Damn!"

"Language, Jane!"

"I forgot to call Ma last night. We were a little... busy."

"Damn!"

"Maura!" Jane laughs at Maura's use of profanity.

"She is going to be angry with you, Jane."

"Because I caused her to worry."

They pull into Maura's driveway and begin to unload the car.

"How long do you think we have, Jane?"

"Truthfully? I think by the time we unlock the front door, she will be coming in the back."

Maura carries one bag and unlocks the door, allowing Jane to enter with her multiple bags. The house is quiet, for a whole 30 seconds until the back door opens.

"Jane Clementine Rizzoli! Did you not promise me that you would text last night when you reached your destination?"

"Ma."

"You would have your POOR mother worry ALL night about her two daughters?"

"Ma!"

"Do I ask that much of you?"

"MA! Enough all ready! For crying out loud! I am SORRY! OK?"

"Well, fine. Did you girls have a good time?"

Maura watches the exchange, still fascinated by the interaction of the Rizzoli clan. There is always much shouting and noise, but always love.

"Angela. We brought you home a bottle wine. Ballet of Angels. We thought of you because of the name."

Jane arches an eyebrow. Nice one Maura. I'll have to thank her for that save.

"Oh, thank you girls! That is lovely."

"Ya, Ma. We're going to order a pizza and watch the game. Do you want to join us?"

"Well, maybe only for the first game and you can fill me in on your weekend. How does that sound?"

"That would be wonderful, Angela."

"Filters, Maura. Remember the filters."

Maura looks to Jane and nods with a smile.

Jane unloads the wine from the car while Maura orders the pizza. The first game comes on and Jane focuses on the game while Maura and Angela talked. Jane listens to make sure that no 'sensitive' information gets passed onto her mother. After the first game, Angela leaves as planned and Jane and Maura snuggle on the couch for the second game.

"Maura, did you enjoy this weekend?"

"Yes, Jane. Thank you for all the thought you put into this date."

The lean into one another and kiss.

"Now, it's MY turn to plan a date."

OMG. I love you all! Really! It really does make me happy to write and make you happy, and I hope that I am doing that! So many of you love the animals. What would you like? A short one shot of their own or a chapter in this story of their own? They are fun to write so I could do either, or both! Thank you for Jobee, my mini-beta, who so kindly helped me with my last chapter. Thank you for all other reviews and PMs. You are too much. Thank you!

Hugs and happy reading!
