"Holy shit! You brought the Mercedes!" Jane's mouth dropped open at the sight of the beautiful black sports car.
"Language, Jane!" Maura scolded even though she really didn't care. She was thrilled by how excited Jane was.
"Sorry, holy crap!" Jane smirked and winked.
Maura tossed Jane the keys, "Here you go, tiger. You can drive."
"Tiger?" Jane guffawed.
"Well, there are the typical pet names: sugar, sweetheart, baby, babe. I just thought I'd use one that's a little unique. After all, Jane. You do remind me of a fierce jungle cat."
Jane laughed until she was doubled over. "Jungle cat?"
Maura had a twinkle in her eye. "Yes, a fierce sexy jungle cat." She bit her lip for good measure.
"Watch it, Dr. Isles. If you keep that up, we'll never get to the game."
"Now c'mon." Jane tilted her head in the direction of the car. She was chomping at the bit to get behind the wheel.
"I need to drive my woman to the game." Jane winked and smacked Maura's butt on the way to the driver's seat.
Maura giggled and got in.
R & I R & I R & I
Jane felt like such a badass behind the wheel of Maura's Mercedes. Not only was she in a hot car, but she had a hot woman next to her. When they pulled into the parking lot and saw Frost getting out of his car, the brunette couldn't help but flaunt it.
"Damn! Jane, is that you and Maura?" Frost couldn't help but admire the car. "Shoot, I need to get me a sugar mama like Maura!" Frost winked at Maura so she knew he was kidding.
"Sorry, Frost. She's taken." Jane wrapped her arm around Maura long enough to stake her claim but quickly let go. They still weren't completely open with their relationship. Only their closest friends knew.
"You lucky bitch," Frost clapped her on the back as the trio gathered their things and headed towards the entrance. "Let's grab a seat."
R & I
The three got in free with their teacher IDs although they didn't need them since Angela was working the gate. Angela was overjoyed when Jane and Maura finally told her that they were dating, but she was incredibly disappointed that she couldn't tell anyone outside of close friends and family. When Maura put the spin on it that Angela was in on a secret, the secretary was mollified.
"Hey, guys!" Angela chirped. "You ready for the game?"
Maura was a little giddy about the game, she had never been to one before.
"I am, Angela! This is the first my first game."
This caught Jane off guard, "Is this really your first game?!"
"Yes, Jane. I've never been to a game although I researched the rules and regulations."
Jane wrapped her arm around Maura's shoulder and led her through the gate. "Come on Maur'. It's time for you to experience your first high school football game."
R & I R & I R & I
As the remaining crowd filtered out of the stadium (most of the spectators left after half time), Maura admitted, "Wow, Jane. You really weren't kidding. We are terrible."
Jane sighed shaking her head, "Sixty-two to zero is a new record."
Maura cringed in sympathy. "Well, maybe next year will be better." She added hopefully.
"I wouldn't count on it, but rather than dwell on this abysmal defeat, let's go get drinks with the guys."
R & I R & I R & I
"So, Jane. Have you told Maura about the field trip yet?" Frost set his beer down on the table and peered closely at the brunette.
"What field trip, Jane?" Maura cocked her head a little to the side and turned her big beautiful eyes to the woman next to her.
"Oh, sorry. I forgot." Jane wiped her mouth with the back of her hand. "They'll bring it up at the next faculty meeting, but I guess I can tell you now."
"Every year teachers from the different departments all take kids down for a weekend trip to D.C. We always head down there on the tail end of fall because it's so pretty." Jane gave Maura a warm smile. The brunette loved taking this trip every year.
"We asked Susie if she would mind if you took her place as chaperone for your department. I have never heard that woman agree to something so quickly before. I guess last year's trip was too stressful for her. It wasn't her fault that the kid accidentally locked himself inside of the bus's bathroom." Frost just shook his head at the memory.
Then it dawned on her that she probably should have asked Maura before she had volunteered the doctor.
"Oh, by the way, would you like to chaperone the kids on a trip to D.C.?" Jane gave Maura a roguish grin.
Maura couldn't help but laugh and feel special that they wanted her to come along. "Of course! That would be so much fun! The museums alone can keep us busy for hours!"
Jane groaned a little at the idea of multiple museums, but she'd do anything to make the doctor happy.
"Great! The kids have already signed up and paid their dues. They all did this during the summer, so they could do fundraising to pay for the trip. I think most of your anatomy class is going. I'm surprised they haven't already mentioned it to you." Jane scratched her head.
Maura took a sip from her wine. "Well, I may have overheard mention of a field trip, but since I hadn't heard anything about it from administration, so I wasn't sure."
Frost grinned at the honey blonde. "You're going to love it. It's always been a ton of fun."
"And guess what, Maura." Jane had a devilish gleam in her eye.
"What Jane?" Maura eyed her suspiciously.
"You get another t-shirt for the trip!"
Maura just groaned and finished off the rest of her wine.

"Alright, hand ups when I call your name!" Jane bellowed at the group of kids in her care. "Amari! Baker! Carter! Ellis! Goodwin! Johar! Malone! Quincy! Schaffer! Vasquez!"
Jane turned to see Maura finishing with her kids. "...Williams and Young."
Maura grinned at Jane, "All of mine are accounted for, Ms. Rizzoli."
"Frost, you good?"
"Yep,"
Jane cringed, "Ms. Thomas, are you good?"
Kellie caught Jane's eye and winked, "I am."
Jane rolled her eyes.
Maura frowned.
All of the teachers and students piled onto two charter buses. Everyone had a partner including teachers. Frankie had managed to get away as an extra chaperone. Anytime there is a trip involving teenagers, it is helpful to have a guidance counselor on standby.
Frost and Frankie sat in the seats across from Jane and Maura at the front of the bus. Much to everyone's relief, Kellie was on the other bus.
The drive from Boston to D.C. was a total of twelve hours excluding times needed for bathroom breaks and meals, so the buses left bright and early at 5:30 a.m. The kids and Jane were very grumpy, but as the day progressed and the miles were logged the excitement grew.
Maura regaled Jane and anyone who would listen with facts about each state they were driving through. Jane had to admit that she thought it was awfully cute, but she feigned annoyance just to tease Maura. All in all, the drive down was enjoyable. The kids were attentive, followed the rules, and were having fun.
The buses thankfully arrived in D.C. as rush hour was ending. At last, the group was ready to check into the hotel. On the way down, Jane, Maura and the other teachers all worked on room assignments. If they weren't careful of who roomed with whom, they might unleash untold drama. After that was sorted, the teachers made their own room assignments.
"So, Jane. Want to room with me?" Frankie teased Jane.
"Frankie, we never shared a room growing up, and we're not going to start now." Jane leaned across the aisle to smack her brother and grinned when he winced.
"I know." Frankie smirked and rubbed his arm. "So Maura want to…" Jane shut him up with a glare.
Jane turned to Maura and said in her roughest and sexiest voice, "Wanna get a room?"
"Jane!" Maura scolded. Two can play at that game.
Maura then leaned closer. "Only if you pay up front."
Jane laughed out loud drawing the attention of some of her students.
"Rizzoli! What's so funny?" one of her favorite senior boys shouted.
"Your face, Zack!" Jane teased and gave him a wink so he knew she was teasing.
A chorus of ohs resounded in the bus.
Zack grinned and threw back, "Hardy harr harr." He then plopped back down in his seat and continued to laugh with his friends.
Maura rolled her eyes at her girlfriend. "I can't take you anywhere."
"Aw, come on now. You love me." Jane winked at the doctor.
Slipping her hand into Jane's hand, Maura whispered, "You're right. I do."
If the two were alone and not on a bus filled with teenagers and teachers, Maura would have kissed the brunette.
For now, they had to wait until they were alone in their hotel room.
R & I R & I R & I
Alright, guys. Listen up! Since we stopped for dinner outside of D.C., tonight's going to be low key. You all need to rest and go to bed early because we are leaving the hotel at 7:30.
So, that means everyone needs to be in the lobby by 7:15.
A chorus of groans greeted the brunette.
"Remember the following rules," Jane leveled her gaze at all the teenagers in the room.
She counted the rules on her fingers. "Number one, leaving the hotel is completely off limits. Number two, no boys allowed in girls' rooms and no girls' in boys' rooms! Number three. Be in your room by curfew, which by the way is 10:00."
Zack, the same senior boy from earlier whined, "C'mon Rizzoli! Why so early?"
All of the students agreed with Zack and began to beg Jane.
Jane crossed her arms over her her chest and smirked, "Okay. 10:30, but it's your fault if you're tired tomorrow."
"Thank you!" All of the students cheered.
Grinning broadly, Jane made one final remark, "Common areas include the lobby and swimming pool. Don't even try going into the bar!"
One of the junior girls in the back piped up, "What? No shots?"
The whole group laughed.
Jane teased the girl, "Maybe in a few years but tonight? There's no point trying to use that fake I.D."
All the kids chuckled and looked to Jane for any last instructions.
"OK, I'm done with you. Go have fun!"
Jane shooed the kids out of the lobby and got the attention of the remaining teachers in the room.
"If anyone wants to meet at the bar for a drink, let's do it at 10:45 after the curfew sweep. Any takers?"
Frost and Frankie along with the teachers from the math department and foreign language all said they'd be there.
Letting out a tired sigh, Jane turned to the honey blonde. "Ok, Maur' let's head up to our room."
Jane carried all three of Maura's bags in addition to her own to the elevator. Maura tried to take her bags, but Jane, of course, refused to let her help.
Ding!
The two women loaded onto the elevator with some other guests.
"Floor nine, please." Maura said to the person standing closest to the elevator buttons.
The elevator stopped at the sixth floor and on walked Kellie Thomas.
"Hello, Jane." Kellie completely ignored Maura, but took her time to look Jane up and down.
"Hi, Kellie." Jane responded curtly and unconsciously moved a step closer to Maura.
"I was just checking on some of my girls who are rooming on this floor. Are some of your students on this floor as well?"
"Yes, a couple." Jane and Maura were very peeved along with the other teachers that their kids were on different floors, but that happens when traveling in large groups.
Jane and Maura reached their floor, but to their dismay Kellie got off the elevator with them.
"How lovely, Jane. We're on the same floor." Kellie was still ignoring Maura.
Stepping into Jane's personal space, Kellie purred, "I'm in room 915 if you get lonely later."
Jealous Maura reared her head.
"I don't think you'll need to worry about her getting lonely any time soon. Come on, Jane."
Maura boldly took Jane by the hand and led her to their room a few doors down. As the lock clicked open, Maura made sure to look over her shoulder. She was amused to see a fuming Kellie Thomas glaring at her. Maura gently pushed Jane through the door while smirking at the annoyed teacher.
"We'll see you later,Kellie." Maura winked and shut the door behind her.
Once inside the room, Jane turned to the doctor, "So, I won't be getting lonely any time soon?"
Maura feigned innocence. "Well, of course not, Jane. You have me as your roommate. By definition that means you are not alone." The honey blonde had a twinkle in her eye. She was so damn literal.
"Mmm, you're right." Jane wrapped her arms around Maura's waist when a thought occurred to her.
"Maura, how did we get a room with a king-sized bed?" Jane pulled away from the doctor to peer into the bathroom. "And a jacuzzi!?"
"I may have called the hotel and asked for an upgraded room." Maura bit her bottom lip.
"You paid for this? Wow!" Jane jumped on the bed pulling Maura down with her.
"I thought it might be nice for us to have a more luxurious room since we'll probably want to relax at the end of the day." Maura asked a little uncertainly. "Do you like it?"
"Like it? I love it!" Jane pulled Maura into her arms and kissed her neck eliciting several girls from the doctor.
"Want to freshen up before we go back down to watch the kids?" Jane gave herself a sniff.
Maura stood up and walked over to one of her suitcases. "I think I do. I'll just rinse off, and you can go after me."
Jane perked up, "What are my chances of seeing you in naked tonight?"
"Tonight?" Maura asked. "Highly likely, but I don't guess."
Maura padded over to the bathroom and closed the door behind her.
R & I R & I R & I
"Alright, the last of the kids are accounted for. Anyone in the mood for an adult beverage?" Frost looked at the circle of teachers in the lobby.
A few more teachers, who weren't downstairs when the invitation was extended, joined the group heading towards the bar.
The two women made their way towards the long wooden bar in the back of the hotel.
"Maur' what do you say we make our drink quick, so we can have some time alone in the room?" Jane hinted without an ounce of subtlety.
"I think that is a splendid idea," Maura leaned into Jane's personal space.
To be fair the two women drank their drinks as quickly as they could without appearing rude or rousing suspicion. When they excuse themselves with the excuse of being tired, no one seemed to think anything of it.
Riding the elevator up to the room, the two women's excitement grew. Out of habit, Jane started to fidget with her watch. Maura noticed this and gently took hold of Jane's hand.
"I love you, Jane." She whispered in the brunette's ear.
"I love you, too, Doctor." Jane nuzzled Maura's neck with her nose.
Ding!
The couple left the elevator and walked the short distance to their room. They were both incredibly tired after the long bus ride and agreed that a hot bath in the jacuzzi would be the perfect way to end their day.
"Maura would you like to use the jacuzzi first? I can hop in when you're done?" Jane laid back on the comfy bed.
"I have a better idea, Jane." Maura crawled up next to the brunette. "Let's get in together."
Jane wrapped her arms around the honey blonde, "I think that's a wonderful idea, but I'm going to be honest. I'm too tired to have sex, and I don't want our first time to be rushed."
Maura released a deep breath. "I agree, Jane. I'd just like you to hold me."
"I'll go start the water while you get undressed." Jane pulled herself off of the bed and made her way to the bathroom.
As soon as the tub was filled, Jane quickly disrobed and climbed into the tub. She made sure that the surface of the water was completely covered in bubbles. Then she slowly eased herself into the steaming water and felt every care of the day just melt away.
Jane heard a soft tapping on the door. "Jane, can I come in?"
"Of course, Maur'." Jane settled a little farther down in the water.
The door creaked open to reveal a very sexy doctor clothed only in a bathrobe. Maura dipped her hand in the water.
"This feels perfect. Can I get in?" Maura started undoing the sash of her robe.
"Sure, of course. I'll make room." Jane scooted over and opened her arms for the blonde to join her. As the the doctor's robe began to open, Jane turned her head to give the doctor her privacy.
Maura settled herself between Jane's legs and relished the feeling of Jane's naked chest pressed against her back. Their resolve to just sleep was quickly weakening.
The two women simultaneously let out a deep sigh as Jane wrapped her arms around the doctor.
After several minutes, the water began to cool, but Jane wasn't ready for the intimacy to end.
"So, Maura." Jane kissed the doctor's neck eliciting a small groan from the honey blonde. "How do you feel about sleeping in the nude?"
The blonde smirked, "It's the only way I sleep, Jane."
