* I own nothing of Rizzoli and Isles I just have the privilege of playing with the characters for a while.

Frost was sitting at his desk and looked up at the clock and noticed it was 9:30 am and wondered where Jane was. "Korsak where's Jane at?"

"Oh, she had to go qualify on her weapon this morning. She'll be here around 11 am."

"I hope she is in a better mood than yesterday. I'm not use to quite Jane. It's a scary thing."

"Tell me about it. I think yesterday was the first day she hasn't busted my chops about something in over three years."

"If she starts it again today maybe we should do something to get her going." He said grinning as he started planning.

"I'm not so sure that will be necessary."

"Why's… that?"

"Maura isn't here again today and I have a felling she hasn't told Jane why yet."

"Oh... I'm not stirring in women matters. Those waters are just too deep for me."

"Smart man." He said smiling at the young detective.

Jane walked into BPD after going to the gun range and decided to head down to the morgue to see if Maura had made it in. She wasn't for sure what she was going to say but she had to talk to the woman before she exploded. The elevator doors opened and Susie saw her coming and turned back and started walking the other way not wanting to deal with the detective again.

"Susie" Jane yelled and the woman stopped in her tracks then took a deep breath and turned. "Dr. Isles is not in today Detective Rizzoli. She said she would return on Monday and that is all I know." The woman quickly fired out.

Jane looked at her, "Thank you Susie. That is all I needed to know." She said nicely to the shocked woman, then turned and got back on the elevator to go upstairs. She walked towards her desk where she saw Maura and Dr. Bonner standing talking to Frost and Korsak at the older detective's desk.

"Well look who finally showed up at work." Jane said as she walked in. They all turned and looked at her and Maura noticed the look of accusation she was getting from Jane and was puzzled by it.

"Jane...I'd like you to meet..."

"Dr. Keely Bonner your new girlfriend." Jane said as the whole office looked up at what was happening. Maura shook her head no and looked at her confused, "Jane what are you talking about?"

"This is the woman you kissed on your sidewalk last night. I just guessed she was your new girlfriend." Jane said walking past her towards her chair but didn't sit down.

"Maura...I'm going to go down to the cafe while you take care of things." Keely said half smiling at Maura, "It was a pleasure meeting you all." She said as she got on the elevator. Maura turned and faced Jane the moment the elevators closed with fire in her eyes. "Now Jane Rizzoli what are you talking about?"

"I called and texted you yesterday several times and got no response so I became concerned and was going to stop by and see if you were okay last night. When I drove up on your street I saw the two of you hand in hand walking up your side walk and then low and behold you two kissed." She said snarly.

"How dare you assume incorrect things and then dare voice my personal life in front of follow colleagues. I sometimes enter lace my arm with yours when we walk but does that mean we are together? I think we both know the answer to that question...don't we detective! Your assumption is no better than the people in this build that think we are together without even seeing us walking with arms enter laced."

"Maur..." Jane said trying to interrupt her feeling exposed.

"Don't interrupt me..." Jane took a step back, "What gives you the right to come to my house and spy on me like a common criminal?" She asked looking her square in the eyes.

"Well if you wouldn't have ignored me all day yesterday or at least told me you were going to be out..." She said balancing her weight from foot to foot, "...I'm your best friend and you said nothing." Jane said trailing off as the woman took two steps to her desk.

"You mean like leaving a note..." She said as she opened the Sullivan file where an envelope with Jane's name on it was, "...like this?" She said as she picked it up and slammed it down on the desk in front of her. Jane's eyes widen as she realized what an ass she had been.

"Maur..." was said in a dejected voice.

The woman looked up with fire still in her eyes, "Now since my business is now this whole office curiosity...thanks to the assumptions of my best friend. I will explain myself so everyone here can at least get the gossip correct." She said and paused looking everyone in the eye as they all tried to look away but no one left wanting to hear the story. "As you all know Dr. Bonner and I went to college together. She had a crush on me during that time. We were study partners for a psychology class that we had together and she would ask me out all the time. One night after we both drank too much after celebrating passing final exams, I let her kiss me to prove I wasn't attracted to her. After the kiss, she said she learned two things, one I was an amazing kisser and that she knew I wasn't into women.

We have remained friends over the years and talk to each other about life when we need an objective ear. She has had a very difficult time with the separation of her and her wife so we planned a day together after we went and saw Tina Weber who hasn't talked since seeing her mother shot. She had a little too much to drink over dinner so when I got out of my car I took her hand to make sure she made it inside. She stopped and turned to me and I knew just as I knew in college she needed to see again if I was attracted to her."

"Jane couldn't stand it, "And?"

"She said she learned three things after our kiss, one that I was still an amazing kisser, two that I was totally in love with someone else, and that she was still in love with her wife. So, we went in and I put on coffee for her to sober up so she could talk to her wife half the night to try and work things out. She is leaving in a couple of hours and I wanted her to meet my best friend and maybe have lunch but I believe that isn't a wise thing at the moment." She said as she started to leave.

"You said you two talk about stuff," Jane said trying to get Maura to stop from leaving, "…and she is into helping people with trauma and nightmares. Have you talked to her about me? Are you trying to fix me?" Jane asked in an accusing manor not meaning to but it came out that way.

Maura turned and looked at her, "I have spoken to her about you Jane from time to time but not to fix you..."

"I knew it." Jane said like she had caught a murder.

"You know nothing Jane." She said shaking her head, "You look but don't see, you hear but don't understand, I speak and you don't listen."

"What the hell is that supposed to mean?" Jane said cocking her head to the side.

"It means you aren't the only one who has nightmares."

"Since when do you have nightmares? You told me when we first met you rarely had them."

"That was true... I never had them until I met you." She said with a sad sigh, "Now if you will excuse me...I have left a guest waiting on our lunch too long." She said as she walked to the elevator and punched the down button. Jane knew everyone thought Maura was cutting her down with her last comment but she noticed the up lifted hand that barley wiped the tear away which had threatened to fall as she walked into the elevator.

Foot in mouth much Jane...
