"Oh, am I interrupting?" Maura asked, looking at Jane and Casey on the bed. They were so free with each other's homes that Maura had forgotten that, with Casey home from the military, she might need to knock. She tilted her head, observing the casual affection, absorbing the fact that Jane had her shoes on the bed again.
"No, we were hoping to have an orgy and then we realised we were one person short," Jane snarked, and Maura deciphered it to mean that yes, she was interrupting, and that Jane and Casey were not, in fact, hoping for an orgy.
A shame, but there it was.
Jane joined Maura on her run.
"Boundaries," Jane grumbled.
"Your family doesn't knock when they come to my home, and you've never complained before."
"You've never... interrupted... before."
"Ah, coitus interruptus. My apologies. You could've just said."
"I'm not going to say... ugh, Maura, I'm not going to say I was hoping to get lucky in front of him."
"I'm pretty sure he knew," Maura said. "He's no doctor but the signs of arousal..."
"No, no, no. We're not talking about 'the signs of arousal'."
"Was it an offer?" Maura asked, just when Jane thought it was safe, just when Jane thought they'd gotten back into pace, feet hitting the sidewalk in an easy rhythm. She turned to look at Maura, a little sweaty but no less radiant.
"Huh?"
"The 'one short for an orgy'. Was it an offer? Although it would technically be a threesome, not an orgy, if there are only three of us. Or a very disappointing and poorly prepared orgy."
"Huh?" Jane asked, dropping to a stop, leaning her elbows on her knees as she bent over to catch her breath and figure out what Maura was saying.
"C'mon, I need my endorphins," Maura complained, jogging on the spot. "Not everyone has a man waiting in their bed."
"It wasn't an offer," Jane said finally. "It was a joke."
Maura eyed Jane thoroughly, damp with sweat, hair tied back but escaping rapidly due to the humidity.
"If you say so," Maura said calmly, jogging away. Jane took off after her.
"Of course it was," Jane huffed as she caught up. "I know we share everything, but Casey is mine."
Maura let Jane get ahead of her, shaking her head.
"So am I," she said quietly, too quietly for Jane to hear.

This is a five shot (I think). It will be updated when it is updated.
