Title: Rizzles – a 100 short ones :)

Disclaimer: No infringement intended. I own nothing I'm just borrowing the characters for my own amusement. These stories may depict two women in a sexual context and if that's not your cup of tea feel free to not read.
Summary: At the end of the game, decisions still needs to be made no matter how hard it may seem.
Rating: M
Pairing: It's going to be Rizzles (obviously) but it may take some time to actually get there. Keep in mind that Jane's only just told one person and Maura isn't there yet and the fact that the chapters are short.
AN: I'm thinking these short stories might make up a full story later down the road which may (definitely) need some tweaking and a bit more detail to it. It's kind of fun to challenge oneself to actually write every day. I already know though that there won't be any updates tomorrow, Friday, Saturday and next Wednesday due to a business trip and a funeral but if I have the time later on I'll try to "fix" that with a couple of updates in one go.
Also, thanks for the shout out, BensonandStabler! And thanks heaps for the lovely reviews.
Chapter 3 – A mother knows best
Angela was dancing. Her oldest was finally going to get married, give her grandchildren, settle down and just live a decent ordinary life. When the kids came she'd have to get a desk job, she couldn't be risking herself catching bad guys when she had kids. Jane would be safe, no more shooting accidents or murderers trying to kill her. She would finally be able to breathe a bit easier. Casey had said she hadn't said yes any but that was just a matter of time. Of course she would accept. There was no other choice.
She hoped to get a yes out of Jane during family dinner this evening, Casey hadn't really been home long enough to ever be over at one but yesterday when he'd told her about his proposal she had invited him, telling him he might want to ask her again during dinner. He'd been a bit reluctant to do so but promised to think about it.
She had it all planned. She'd cook the most amazing dinner, they'd drink some wine Maura had in store and in just the right moment Casey would ask, Jane would accept and then they'd toast.
She dressed and decided to head over to Maura's to check what needed to be bought for this special occasion and get the keys to the Prius. Maura was always willing to let her lend the car whenever she wanted and especially when shopping for family dinner. Sometimes they even went together and spent the whole day discussing and preparing dinner for the family. She was happy Jane had met Maura, now Jane could watch whatever game was on and drink beer with the boys while Maura and she made dinner, a mother-daughter type of bonding she called it. Even if Maura wasn't really hers.
When she opened the front door she heard some angry voices, not yelling but talking a bit louder than normal, and pondered if she should interfere and tell them she was there or just grab the car keys from the shelf. There weren't that many times that she heard them arguing but she had learned over the years that sometimes it was ok to step in and sometimes it was best to not say anything. This seemed to be a non-interference case so she took the keys and turned around to leave the house before they noticed she was there. Just as she closed the door she heard Jane's angry voice
"What would you have me do, huh? Scream it out tonight at dinner? Oh yeah, right!"
Ahh, young love – I remember it well she thought as she walked away from the screaming match heading towards the car, not even thinking about the fact that it had been Maura and Jane inside arguing. It wasn't till months she realized how very right she had been.
As she made her way throughout the store finding everything she needed for tonight's Lasagna she thought about her sons and their relationships. She wanted all of her children to be happy, find love and give her grandkids. Of course Tommy was already set with a son, TJ, and if things progressed she suspected that he and Lydia would be a happy couple, but she worried about Frankie, he never seemed to find the right woman.
Before she paid, she went through everything to make sure she hadn't forgotten anything,
"Garlic, tomato, whipped cream, got that, and yes that, salad, meat, dessert, beers for Jane and the boys, Maura's got the wine, cheese, ahh strawberries for desert to celebrate," her eyes getting misty, "my Janie is getting married."
She quickly went through the rest before paying and hurried out to the car. She made a quick dash down to the precinct intent on asking Sean to come to dinner tonight. She had it all figured out; if he was there he'd know about the marriage and he'd understand that Jane eventually needed to step down from active duty in order to become a wife and mother. Besides, she'd like if he was there, she could actually see some sort of future with him and she was tired of being alone. Just as she'd parked the car she saw him leaving in a hurry.
"Sean, Sean, wait." She half walked, half ran, to reach him before he drove away.
"Angela, what are you doing here? Aren't you free today, it's Sunday?" He caught her as she stumbled right in front of him, trying to catch her breath.
"Sunday? Oh, what are you doing here then? Would you come to family dinner tonight? You've been a couple of times already and Jane's," she stopped before getting ahead of herself, something she had worked at getting better at, "Would you? I'd liked it if you would," she smiled at him.
"Family dinner? Yeah I'd love it. You simple make the best dinner ever. I've got to go but tonight then?" He jumped into his car and smiled at her before he took off.
She walked to her car, well Maura's car really but sometimes it felt like hers.
"Oh my God… of course, Maura!"
She laughed at herself. Her morning had been real productive. When everybody was set there were only two people alone and they fit perfect together. Maura was of course already family but she could be real family, like maybe a daughter-in-law. Maybe even a double wedding, two siblings getting married with their loved ones at the same day? She knew Frankie liked Maura and if she played them right she might get them to notice each other. Ok, ok, a wedding might be a bit farfetched right now but she could dream couldn't she? And Jane's wedding was bound to take a lot of planning so maybe it was good if they just started dating a bit first. But this worked out beautifully, everybody happy and finally she'd get some peace and quiet, and some grandchildren to love.
AN: Next – Family dinner part 1 but that won't be up until Sunday, sorry!
Please tell me what you think about this story.
