As promised, here's the next one! Thanks for the reviews and alerts, my loyal readers=) This one has a bit of a twist and I really want to know what you think!


"Come on Maur, we're going to be late!"

"Jane, it's our day off. I thought the whole point of that was to relax. Besides, aren't I the one that's usually trouble when it comes to punctuality?" Maura teased.

"Usually, yes, but it's opening day, we need to be there super early! I want the whole experience! I've wanted the whole experience all year long and thanks to you, my beautiful girlfriend, I get to see the Sox open the new season against the damned Yankees!" Jane gave Maura a kiss to emphasize just how grateful she was. "I know this isn't typically your thing, with the sports, so I really appreciate you doing this."

"I'm not as knowledgeable in sports, but that doesn't mean that I don't enjoy them. It's not to the degree you do, certainly, but one thing that's going to make this great and so worth it is the look on your face as you experience the whole thing. Even if I hated baseball, your love of it and me getting to share that experience with you would make it worth it."

"How did I ever get so lucky in life to have come across someone like you?" Jane asked her girlfriend as she looked on in awe and adoration.

"I think we have Angela to thank for that." Maura said with a wink. "Now let's get going, if not then you're right and we truly are going to be late…"

"Wait a minute, that's what you're going to wear?" Jane asked as she looked Maura over.

"Yes, I think I met what you said was 'proper' game attire." Maura replied as she looked down at her clothes: jeans, a sox shirt, and tennis shoes.

"You look great Maur, as always, but you're missing something I think…" Jane went over to the couch and grabbed a rectangular box that rested on it. "This is for you."

"Jane, I didn't realize we were getting each other anything… I'm sorry…"

"Oh come on Maur, don't even go there. It's just my way of saying 'thank you' and you really being a part of today. I hope you like it!"

Maura opened the box to reveal a Red Sox home jersey. Jane had even gotten it personalized, with 'Isles' stitched on the back. Along with the jersey, Jane had included a red sox cap.

"This is great! Now I have one just like yours!" Maura kissed her girlfriend. "Thank you. I most certainly will wear this today. Let me put it on really quick and then we'll leave…"

Opening day at Fenway Park was definitely a sight to see. Red Sox nation was in full swing. Men, women and children all dressed in Sox gear paraded through the streets leading up to Fenway. Music could be heard from all over, food and beverage was consumed in anticipation to the game. Everyone was just having a great time, to the degree of it being infectious.

Maura had never been part of something that was so much fun before that didn't involve any natural sciences. Her fear of people was nonexistent with Jane by her side, their hands linked together as they walked through the crowd. For Jane, it was just about being in the middle of it all, feeling the love for the game and letting mingling with people who felt as passionate as she did about the sport, all the while having her girlfriend by her side. She couldn't remember the last time she'd had such an amazing time.

The game was a huge success as the Red Sox ended up beating the crap out of the Yankees and taking the game 7-2. The roar of the crowd at the end of the game was only indicative of the great game played and what appeared to be a very promising season.

Maura had enjoyed watching Jane yell at the refs and players when they made a bad call or what she considered to be an 'idiotic' play. Each time the brunette had received a reassuring hand squeeze and smile from her girlfriend who just seemed to be absorbing the environment around her. It truly had been a day to remember.

"So what do you think Maur? Are you a Red Sox fan now too?" Jane asked.

"Always…" Maura replied.

Jane awoke with a jolt, feeling disoriented. Something wasn't right. The surface she lay on was too hard to be a bed. She quickly looked around, realizing she was nowhere near Maura's and her bedroom. Concrete walls surrounded her, a hint of humidity in the air. She lay on the ground, and it wasn't until then that she realized her hands and legs were bound; not too tight, but tight enough to hold her in place. There was no gag in her mouth, so clearly the ones who had done this weren't worried about her yelling.

She wracked her brain, trying to remember what was going on. Fenway Park. Opening Day. That had all been a dream… no … not a dream, but a memory. She had been remembering that day as she slept. But how had this happened? How had she ended up here? Why was she here? Where was Maura? Was she ok? Had she been taken too? Where the hell was she? And how could she get away?


So Jane was having a dream and realized she was taken. What's going to happen to her now? And where is Maura? Let me know your thoughts!=)
