"It was beautiful" Julie adds. Julie starts to lead them through the network of halls in the hidden parts of the Stadium. Jane is walking with her arm around Maura and couldn't pull her eyes away from her wife. My wife, holy fuck we are married. How the hell did she pull all this off? They reach a private elevator and start heading up. "Would you like me to remove your train?" Julie asked Maura. Maura nodded "Yes, thank you."
"Are we going back to our seats to watch the game?" Jane asks disappointed.
"We will watch it, we will just have another viewpoint." Maura smiles and snuggles into her shoulder. The doors open and Julie leads them to the owner's box. Maura stops them outside the door.
"The owner's box, damn Maura, do we have any money left or do I need to get a second job?" Jane joked but in the back of her mind she wondered how hefty of a price tag this all cost.
Maura smacked Jane, "I told you. It didn't cost what you might think. So stop worrying, we have the game to enjoy, this isn't our reception, your mother insisted we have something after the game, a proper wedding reception. It's more for her than anything. The whole team will be there so you will get a better chance to meet them and they will sign anything for everyone. This is for us, and a select few. Your mother, Sean, Frankie and Steph are meeting us up here. T-n-K wanted to stay down with everyone else to keep things under control and Lydia is afraid of heights or something so she, Tommy, and TJ stayed with the main group. My Mother and Father will also be joining us. Their plane was delayed or they would have been here for the ceremony. You ready Detective Isles?"
Jane cocked her head contemplating the name, "After you Doctor Rizzoli." Julie pushes the door open and everyone in the room turns to see Jane and Maura walk in hand and hand. They all applaud and glasses and beer bottles are clinked. Jane quickly spun Maura around and dropped her into a dip, Maura gasped at the quickness that Jane had her completely off her feet held up only by her arms. Jane paused just shy of Maura's lips, and stared deep in her eyes, "Kiss me, Wife!"
Maura pulled Jane down the remaining space and kissed her wife, really kissed for the first time as her wife. They room hooted and clapped as Jane never stopped the kiss till Maura was upright and standing.
"After a kiss like that, you can pick whichever name you want, why don't you put them together and come up with something new…like…Rizzisles."
"Yuck, How bout we tame the name beast tomorrow. Deal, Doctor Rizzoli?"
"Absolutely, Detective Isles."
Jane heard the crack of a bat and as heads turned to the field, "Go on, I'll be right behind you," Jane scurries off to catch the game, receiving hugs along the way. Maura made sure that all the further arrangements were set and would go off without a hitch. The players were informed before the game that they would all be attending a special function after the game, the entertainment was secured, and transportation to the reception would also be available for anyone who needed it after the game as well. Maura was so happy that everything had worked so well. She made her way to Jane and stopped short to watch Jane for a moment. She thought she'd find her screaming at the players down below just like she does in front of the television. Instead she found Jane staring at the ring on her finger with an intense look on her face. Maura stepped closer "Having second thoughts?" Maura smiled.
Jane's head popped up and a huge smile erupted across her face. She stood and closed the remaining distant. Her intense look returned as she took both Maura's hands in her own and locked eyes with her wife. "Never in a million years, you're stuck with me now." Jane chuckled and drew Maura in for a tender kiss.
Maura snuggled into Jane's neck "Good, at this point I don't think I can call off the Skywriter, fireworks…oh and the fly over by the Air Force." Maura forced out trying to contain her giggle.
"WHAT!?" Jane pushed Maura back only to see Maura burst out laughing. "Ha, Ha, Ha, Mrs. Ithinkimfunny" Jane smirked. Jane looked around and back to Maura "All this, it was all so much. Don't get me wrong I loved every minute. I'll never forget it for the rest of my life. I wouldn't have forgotten if you just asked me in a restaurant, or just sitting on our couch, or…" Jane smiled devilishly, "…in our bed. All that matters, all that's ever mattered, is that it was you." Jane pulled Maura's hands to her lips and gently kissed them. A waiter came close and offered them a drink from a tray filled with assorted choices. Maura reached for the Champagne and Jane followed snagging a beer. Maura held up her glass "I love you, Detective Isles."
"I love you, Dr. Rizzoli." Jane responded as they laughed and clinked glasses. "Maur, this was soooooo amazing, all of it but damn, I just can't get over the whole scope of it all. I mean, what the hell did you do, just buy the Red Sox." Jane laughed at her joke and glanced back towards the field till she realized Maura hadn't made a peep. Jane's eyes grew wide and she turned to her guilty looking wife.
Maura nervously started her explanation "Noooo, I didn't buy the Red Sox…" Jane started to look more relieved "…not exactly." Maura finished quietly.
Jane eyes grew wide and again and were locked with the hazel ones before her "Wha…Wha…What do you mean not exactly?" Jane stammered at the implication.
"Father actually purchased the Red Sox, more specifically a majority ownership of sixty percent." Jane began to relax again as Maura continued, "Father knew the trouble the franchise was in and didn't want them to leave Boston. He was more than happy to help ensure the Red Sox legacy here in Boston." Jane took a swig of her beer and chuckled to herself. Awesome, I just married the owners daughter, can you say box seats forever. Maura continued not realizing Jane was only half listening enjoying her daydream, "While Father didn't want the Sox to leave Boston, he has no interest in running a franchise." Maura took a deep breath, "So he decided that since you love them so much…he gave his majority to us as a wedding gift" Maura finished relieved to have finally told Jane.
Jane was torn back to reality as she replayed Maura's last words in her head…he gave his majority to us as a Wedding gift. Jane was in shock as Maura continued,"I tried to talk him out of it. I mean what are we going to do with a baseball team? Jane…Jane…oh my, Jane!?" Maura watched the color drain from Jane's face, "Jane, are you okay?" Jane began to teeter back and forth. Maura quickly grabbed the now crumbling Jane and guided her back to her chair.
Jane's eyes were as big as saucers as she blankly stared forward, "He…Sox…gift…wedding…" was all Jane got out before Maura's parents approached from behind.
"Maura darling, I'm sorry we arrived so late. We had some unforeseen mechanical issues." Maura turned and was engulfed in a hug from her Mother, followed closely by her father. Constance learned in and gave Jane a hug "Congratulations dear, we're so happy for you both. You two were made for each other." Constance backed away and looked at Maura confused "Is she unwell darling?"
Maura smiled at her wife and then back to her parents "I just told her about the Red Sox."
"Now that explains a lot." Richard Isles laughed as he leaned forward to Jane and gave her a hug and whispered in her ear "I know you'll take care of them better than anyone else. Just like the way you care for our daughter." As he backed away he gently kissed her cheek and the scratchy tickle from his five o'clock shadow roused Jane out of her stupor.
"Thank you Sir" she manages to squeak out.
He laughs again, "We'll have none of that, call me Dad." He pats Jane on the back and wanders off in Angela's direction.
Maura almost fell over at her Fathers request. Constance leaned close to Maura, "I think your Father may have had one to many cocktails waiting for the jet to be repaired, I'll make sure he gets rest later, it was a long flight." She hugs Maura once more and turns to Jane. Jane throws her arms open and smiles "Maaaa!"
Constance rolls her eyes at Maura who stifles a giggle. Constance sighs "I prefer Constance but if you must, you must." She gives Jane a quick hug and rushes off to keep Richard out of trouble.
"You okay?" Maura asked as Jane stood once more. Jane took a deep breath "Yea…kind of a shocker. Not every day you get the Red Sox as a wedding gift."
Maura snuggled into Jane's side. "Well we can deal with all that when we get back from our honeymoon. The lawyers are working out the details and by the time we get back all we have to do is sign on the dotted line. Until then the former ownership will run things as usual." Jane took in all Maura had explained and was more than willing to let it be till then. It would give her more time to wrap her brain around the idea of being a part owner of the Red Sox.
"Maur, you know, I've never asked before and it's really none of my business and if you don't wanna answer I completely understand." Maura looked up at Jane quizzically. "How much is there? Money, I mean." Jane gritted out, it sounded so petty coming out of her mouth she hated that she had asked.
Maura turned more fully into Jane's gaze, "Jane, you're my wife, you have every right to know. So don't feel bad for asking." Maura kissed Jane reassuringly. Jane smiled back feeling better and Maura continued, "Well, I can't really give you an exact number…"Maura trailed off.
"Ball Park, Maur" Jane encouraged.
Maura tilted her head from one side then to the other, "Jane, at this point I have no idea how much the Ball Park is worth, I'm sure that…"
Maura was interrupted by Jane laughing and pulling her into a kiss. "God, I love you." Jane barely got though her giggles, "Ball Park figure, Maur, it means just come close to a figure. Dare I say, take your best guess." Jane put a fake look of shock on her face.
Maura gave her a sneer, "You know I do not guess." Maura growled as she poked Jane in her side. "Based on my last assessment, not including the addition of the Red Sox, thirty million would be a good starting point."
Jane choked on the beer she had just sipped "Damn, Maura your parents are loaded."
Maura causally continued, "My parents!? Oh no, that number would be my hold, I mean, OUR holdings. My parents are worth ten times that amount I'm sure. I've made a few good investments over the years and Jane? Jane…Oh dear." Maura watched as her wife went pale once more and fell back to her chair. "Jane, sweetheart, are you okay?" Maura asked with concern as she began taking Jane's vitals. Jane bounced back quickly with Maura's touch and scooped the Doctor up onto her lap.
"All I want, all I need, I have right here in my arms." Jane smiled lovingly at her wife.
"Oh Jane" Maura said breathlessly as Jane pulled her into a slow smoldering and lingering kiss. They broke for air and as each struggled a bit to catch their breath and to resist the urge to continue, Jane couldn't help herself, "Although, a loaded red sports car might be nice, convertible?"
Maura slid off Jane's lap and poked her jokingly "You just can't help yourself, can you?"
Jane smiled brightly, "OH, I know, a maid, that would totally be awesome. They could polish your turtles shell."
Maura poked Jane harder, "Tortoise! I'm telling your mother you're planning to skip the reception!" Maura took off in Angela's direction.
"WAIT, Maur, I was totally joking, you know that right. I'd never let anyone polish Bass. Maur, hold up." Maura had used the one and only weakness she knew Jane had. Her kryptonite, the fear of Angela. Jane quickly caught Maura by the hand and spun her back into her arms and Maura was laughing so hard she had tears in her eyes. "You, you should have seen the looook on your face wh-when I said I was telling Angela you were bailing on the reception. Oh. I think I'm gonna pee my pants." Maura quickly darted to bathroom with Jane hot on her heals.
"THAT was not funny, are you trying to get me killed. Cuz that's what she would do, she would kill me, leaving you a widow." Jane whined. Maura finished and came out and washed her hands and gave Jane a 'as if' look. Maura walked over to Jane who was leaning against the counter looking pitiful. She threw her arms around her neck and pulled Jane a breath away from a kiss, "Widow huh?"
"Yep, and I forbid you to ever marry anyone else, so you can cremate me and put me on the mantle. That way I can watch you get old and crusty and have like a million cats." Jane half pouted half joked. Maura gave her an evil look, millions of cats, as if, on the mantle, me crusty! Maura softened her gaze to the thought of truly losing Jane. She'd come close before and pushed the thought out of her head. She instead let her lips close the remaining distance to Jane's. Maura drew Jane tongue into her mouth causing a deep moan from Jane. Jane rose off the counter and pushed into Maura deepening the kiss.
Maura moaned, "Maybe we should just skip the reception."
Jane continued her onslaught of ravaging her wife, "Now you're talking." Maura's back hit the opposite wall and she knew that as much as she wanted to, they needed to stop. Maura gently pushed Jane away. Jane pouted for a moment but knew Maura was right.
"Jane, could you please unzip me?"
Jane eyes sprang open, "Why Dr. Rizzoli, are your propositioning me in a public bathroom? I might have to arrest you!" Jane unzipped her dressed and began her assault again.
Maura spun around and poked her in the chest, "You'll do no such thing Detective Isles, I was merely planning on changing into a more comfortable dress for the rest of the evening, we have guests and a party to attend to shortly." Maura walked into the large stall and emerged a few minutes later looking as stunning as ever. She walked over and gave Jane a quick kiss, "Ready?"
"As I'll ever be" Maura grabbed Jane's hand and led her to the door stopping just short. She turned and ran her hand playfully up and down seam of Jane Sox jersey.
"If you play your cards right tonight, you just might get to use those cuffs after all!" Maura finished kissing Jane fiercely and pushing her away and strutting out the door leaving a very turned on Jane struggling to catch up.
YES! OK, deep breath, you can do this, OH SCREW IT! Night…over…now! Need…wife…naked…now! Jane thought over and over again.
