Tonight finally she would arrive at the Ronald Reagan Airport, she saw on the television how her father and mother almost got shot at the parade and immediately gathered her stuff to leave to Washington. The whole news was full with a lady named Jane Rizzoli, former Homicide Detective, handpicked to protect her parents, and she did. She caught a bullet for them and Maura was eager to meet her when she would have been recovered from the wound. She was happy to finally see her parents again when they would pick her up tonight.
Maura stared out of the plane window and took a deep breath when she saw the world getting closer to her feet again. She could see the White House from where she was now, it was beautifully illuminated. Other people in the plane were talking about the White House, some were rattling facts, and others tried to take pictures of it from the plane. Other people were still asleep and some were awake but didn't talked, to Maura's pleasure, she enjoyed the silence.
Jane on the other side was getting Constance ready to leave with her. "Are you sure this is all necessary?" the woman asked uncomfortably when Jane took out a bulletproof jacket for her. "Yes. We can't draw too much attention and we can't drive in a fully armed car, so let's just dress you up for worst case scenarios." Jane replied while Constance hung her own jacket over the chair and took the bulletproof jacket. She pulled it over her head, Jane helped her attaching it the right way by pulling some buckles. "Why did you actually chose me to protect both of you?" the brunette rasped as she pulled the last buckle. "Edmond chose you, I wanted a strong man, not some blue collar boston girl.." Constance said while she looked at her bodyguard whom now turned back towards the table, taking a holster and hung it to her belt. "It actually seems the opposite now." she muttered. "You need to know that I really do want you here, I know I am safe with you. I think Edmond is intimidated by the fact that a woman saved his life."
"I would feel intimidated too, but I'd prefer be saved by a woman than get hit by a bullet. I can ensure you, everything is better than a bullet." Jane said with a dark, hoarse voice while she loaded her gun and slid it into its holster. "Does it still hurts?" The First Lady asked while she slowly walked over towards Jane. "A bit." the bodyguard replied quietly. "But I'm fine." she reassured the lady as she turned around to face her.
"I know you're not, Jane. Maybe the wound is fine, but I know you aren't feeling okay, something's bothering you." she took a hold of the slender but muscled shoulders and looked into the brown orbs of her employee, they slowly fell up with tears but Jane blinked them away. "I am really fine, Constance." the famous Rizzoli smile was shown, even though it was fake.
"We need to go. Put you jacket on and close it." Jane stuck a stun-gun into the holster next to her guns holster. She grabbed had her bulletproof jacket on already, it was covered by her shirt. She put her jacket on and guided Constance towards the car. They both got in, Constance on the passenger's seat and Jane in the driver's seat.
It took them only 15 minutes to arrive at the airport. When they arrived they parked and got out. "Stay close, don't draw attention, put on your hood and these glasses." she rasped while giving the woman dark glasses. Constance did as instructed, Jane put on her glasses too and a scarf to cover a bit of her face but not all. It was cold so they wouldn't stand out with it. They walked into the airport and towards the gate Maura would be, everything went fine and Maura walked out of the gate. Jane felt her heart skip a beat by seeing the woman in real life. Constance held up a sign that said 'Maura', Jane she saw the blonde smiling and walking over towards them.
"Maura, darling." Constance said as she lowered her glasses for a second to show her daughter that it was her. "Mother." Maura said happily as she embraced her mother in a hug.
Jane looked around and saw some people looking and whispering, pointing towards them. "We need to go. Now." she rasped out as she took Maura's luggage. "Excuse me?" Maura said unconcerned and almost a bit offended. "I beg your pardon?" she added when Jane didn't replied.
"No, Maura. If she says we should go, we should go." Constance said now, defending the bodyguard. "Who is s-" the golden blonde woman began but she got interrupted by a hand that jerked her away from the gate. She wanted to yell but Jane hissed at her, "Stop drawing attention, Maura." it sounded so stern and hostile that it almost scared her. She just listened as she got jerked out of the airport and towards the car. The tall woman and her mother threw her luggage into the car.
Jane got Constance into the car and then pushed Maura in and closed the door, the mounted in herself too at the driver's seat and sighed annoyed. "You are really good at drawing attention, Miss." Jane hissed as she looked at Maura through the review mirror. "Who the hell do you think you are?!" Maura yelled now, "Just pulling me away from the airport and commanding me, huh?!" she added, her mother trying to calm her down but she failed. Maura wanted to pull open her mouth again but Jane interrupted her, "Don't yell at me. Okay? I got it." she said while looking at the steering wheel with a stone face. She pulled off her glasses and scarf and stuffed them back into the cupboard along with Constance's glasses. She started the car and drove off, it was a silent ride.
As soon as they parked Maura and Constance got escorted from the car and into the hall of the White House by a few other guards. Jane came in later with the luggage, "Oh, darling." Constance turned around and saw Jane struggling with the luggage, she was in clear pain from carrying the weight around. Maura was still standing at the table introducing herself to the night guards when her mother came back with someone else. They put the luggage down. "It's alright guys, take the luggage to the First Daughters room and please tell me that Frost is here already." The hoarse voice reverberated through the hall. "He is upstairs guarding the presidential bedroom. You are off duty." One of them said. "Thank you." she said, with that the guards left. Maura felt herself getting weaker by the hoarse voice, it sent a shiver down her spine.
"I believe you two didn't really met yet." Constance spoke now. Maura sighed and turned towards Jane, the brunette didn't turned around, but then the blonde realized it. The tall woman, her long curled raven hair, her slender building and hoarse voice. "J- Jane Rizzoli." she stuttered. "Yes, Miss." Jane said professional again, now turning towards Maura, the blonde narrowed her eyes by seeing the face of the bodyguard, she had a little tan, she definitely wasn't an American. She thought it was odd that her parents hired such a slender woman to protect them, she was amazed already that they chose a woman in the first place, but she at least expected a somewhat bigger built. She got ripped out of her thoughts, ''Miss?'' Jane said quietly.
"I am so sorry. It- it's such a delight to meet you.." she stuck out her hand, Jane hesitated before taking it and shaking it. "It's a pleasure to meet you too." she flashed her famous Rizzoli smile causing to leave Maura speechless again.
Constance smiled at the two woman, "Jane would you like to get my bulletproof vest off?", "Of- Ofcourse Constance." The brunette said absently before turning towards the First Lady. The woman had took of her own jacket already, Jane unbuckled the bulletproof vest and took it off of Constance. "Thank you." The woman said with a little smile. "I am going to look if Edmond woke up for her or not, could you show her her room if I am not back in a few minutes?"
"Of course I can." Jane replied bluntly. "Thank you." Constance nodded and walked away. Maura's gaze fell back on Jane. "I didn't expected you to be back on the job this soon again, I saw what happened on the television.. Thank you for saving them." Her eyes followed the guard's hands, they unbuttoned the white blouse. "Wh- What are you doing?" she asked shocked.
"Taking my blouse off." Jane said confused as she took the blouse of and laid it down on the table, exposing the bulletproof jacket. "Oh." Maura said bluntly, unable to keep her eyes off of the guard whom unbuckled her vest. "Could you turn around so I can take it off and pull my blouse back on again?" Jane asked quietly as she locked her eyes with Maura's eyes.
"Why? Are you naked under there?" Maura said with a little smile, it made Jane smile too. "No, it are just my bandages, I don't like to expose them to people.." Jane was quiet but still professional, trying not to give away to much about herself, she was ashamed that she got hurt even though it was to save the presidents life. Maura studied the face of the brunette in front of her, all she saw was an emotionless, stone face. ''There isn't anything to be scared of, or to be embarrassed about.. Does it still hurts?"
"Yes, of course it does.. This is the third day after the accident, but this is my job, I can't leave your parents waiting for too long." Jane shrugged her shoulders, "It's just a gunshot, entrance and exit wounds were clean and it's stitched up. I'll survive." she let out a husky laugh. "Just don't overwork yourself, and I won't turn around." Maura said, her brain a bit shaken by the sexy laugh of her parents guard. "Okay, fine." Jane sighed as she took the vest off, Maura's mouth ran dry by seeing the body of the woman in front of her, even though the white bandages she could see how beautifully muscled the woman was.
Jane laid the vest down on the table and caught the president's daughter staring at her body. "You're enjoying the view?" she teased as she grabbed her blouse, Maura's head snapped up at Jane's face whom was covered with a smirk, "That- That is highly inappropriate to ask.." she said with a high pitched but slightly amused voice.
"But?" Jane grinned as she pulled her blouse back on and button it again, she could see the First Daughter hesitate before opening her mouth.
"I did enjoy it." Maura said just above a whisper, she almost sounded ashamed, Jane shared a brief smile with her before Edmond and Constance came down with Frost right behind them. Frost was a former Special Agent whom got assigned to work the evening jobs a few weeks after Jane got hired, his name was Barold, but the last time Jane called him that she got a punch to her stomach. Next to that little incident he was actually a real nice guy.
''Well, Miss. If you have any problems or need my services tonight, you can reach me on this number.'' She pressed the shorter woman a little card into her hands, Maura took it and shove it into her pocket. ''My shift is officially over now. It actually was at 11 pm already. I will be back at 6:30 AM next morning, I would be delighted to see you there.'' the brunette continued while she took a hold of Maura's hand, the blonde felt her breath hitch when the warm breath of the bodyguard rebounded on the top of her hand, followed by the gently touch of the woman's soft lips. ''Goodnight, Maura.'' Jane let go of the hand and gave the First Daughter a little wink before walking away. She wished the presidential couple a goodnight for as far as it still lasted before she traded a few words with Frost and checked out, finally heading home to sleep for the few hours her night still had left, Maura not leaving her mind for a second.
