Entering Maura's house Jane hung up her coat while she expertly slipped out of her shoes without even missing a beat. Jane could see the kitchen light on so she walked towards the kitchen. There she found Maura sitting at the dining room table still in her dress staring at box of unopened pizza.

"Maura," said Jane quietly not wanting to startle her.

Maura's head snapped up at the sound of Jane's voice.

"Ohh…Jane you are home," whispered Maura looking up at Jane with worried eyes.

Jane sighed as she walked towards Maura just as Maura began to stand from the chair.

"I see you didn't relax and take a bath like I told you," whispered Jane wrapping her arms around her.

"I was too worried about you," admitted Maura biting her lip nervously.

"How did they take it?" asked Maura quietly even though she already knew the answer by staring into Jane's eyes noticing the redness around them.

"Can we not talk about this right now," whispered Jane feeling her emotions starting to slip again.

"That bad," whispered Maura softly reaching up and running the pad of her thumb lightly across Jane's cheek bone.

"That bad," nodded Jane leaning down and kissing Maura passionately.

"I need to forget Maura," panted Jane into Maura's mouth.

Maura knew Jane was looking for a distraction from her parents and if Maura knew Jane at all she would throw herself fully into something to distract her. So if Jane needed Maura then she would have her.

Jane backed Maura up until she sufficiently had her pinned up against her dining room table.

Jane began to work hers hands down Maura's back until she reached the zipper on the back of her dress. Slowly she worked it down, she could feel the dress loosening as every inch she pushed the zipper down. Finally she reached the bottom of the zipper, removing hers hands from Maura's back bringing them to her shoulder pushing each strand slowly down her shoulders.

Pulling back from the kiss Jane watched as Maura expertly let the dress fall down her body landing in a heap on the floor leaving her standing only in lacy black underwear that left little to imagination.

Jane's eyes raked up Maura's body from Maura's big toe to the top of her head. Jane let out a loud breath she didn't know she holding in and grabbed Maura by the hip and picked her up and placed her on the table as Jane worked her way in between Maura's legs.

An hour filled with groans, moaning, and screams of ecstasy resulted in Jane and Maura lying in a naked heap on top of Maura's dining room table breathing heavily.

The sound of Maura's laughter was the first thing that Jane heard as her mind finally cleared from sex clouded brain. Jane looked down at Maura who was she curled into hers chest laughing, Jane raised an eyebrow in both question and amusement at her.

"I can't believe we just had sex on my dining room table" mumbled Maura shaking in laughter into Jane's chest.

"Yes but it was great sex" chuckled Jane smiling down at Maura.

Maura brought her head up from hers chest and smiled, "Yes it was great sex" she said which brought a proud smile to Jane's face.

"But I eat at this table. How do you expect me to do that without remember what we did on this thing?" stated Maura looking around the table to see sweat marks all over it.

Jane let out a throaty laugh before tightening her grip around Maura's body. "remembering what we just did isn't bad at all, in fact I am jealous that we didn't get to do it on my table" said Jane with a smirk, "sure would make my lonely dinners at night somewhat enjoyable."

Maura just groaned in frustration at Jane's answer.

Jane smirked down at her, "I don't know why you are so mad it was entirely your fault we did it on the table anyways."

"Excuse me!" huffed Maura as she gave Jane a playful glare, "I clearly remember you picking me up and putting me on my table, so this is your fault," accused Maura pointing a finger Jane.

"Nope" said Jane shaking her head before leaning forward and taking Maura's finger in her mouth before pulling back with a loud pop.

"This is your fault," chuckled Jane. "You wore that skimpy black underwear that you knew I would see tonight. You couldn't honestly expect me to be able to wait the 30 seconds it would have taken me to get you to your bedroom," smiled Jane down at Maura who was still giving Jane a playful glare.

"So let me get this straight Jane" stated Maura amusement definite in her voice. "Because you backed me up into the table, and because you took my dress off, and lastly because you couldn't keep out of my underwear for 30 seconds, this is my fault," deadpanned Maura.

"I am glad we have come to an understanding" nodded Jane which earned her a playful smack in the chest from Maura.

"You reasoning is entirely ridiculous" laughed Maura placing her head back on Jane's chest.

The fell into a comfortable silence as they laid there cuddling as Maura drew patterns with her finger allover Jane's stomach.

A shiver from Maura brought Jane out of her trance and as she looked down at Maura she could tell Maura was fighting to stay warm. "Come on Honey, let's go to bed" said Jane gently rubbing Maura's back as she kissed Maura's shoulder lightly.

"Mmmm…" Maura hummed, "I like that" she said with a laugh.

"If you like that" said Jane smirking, "then you are gonna what I am going to do to you later." And with that statement Jane's mouth assaulted Maura's with a gentle passion. Tongues battling, moaning and a little groping, all in all Jane had thoroughly kissed Maura senseless.

Leaning over she placed kisses down Maura neck, sucking ever so slightly knowing Maura would kill her if she gave her a hickey.

"I like everything you do to me" moaned Maura as Jane kissed her sensitive spot on her collar bone.

"Come on babe let's make to the bedroom this time," chuckled Jane, "unless there is any other spot in the kitchen you would like me to take you on?"

Maura let out a loud laugh, "the bedroom sounds acceptable Jane," said Maura as she began untangling herself from Jane's body.

They both hoped of the table and walked into her room. Pulling back the bed sheets they instantly feel into bed wrestling for dominance, both of them knowing they would get little sleep tonight.


Maura woke up from her deep slumber as she tried to bring her hands up to rub her eyes but suddenly she noticed she couldn't move her arms. Her went got wide in panic for a second until memories from the previous night came back to her. A smile instantly graced her lips as she listened to the gentle snoring coming from the woman currently holding her in a possessive grip. Turning in Jane's arms so that she was now facing Jane, she smiled at she took site of Jane's disheveled hair and open mouth as she slept peacefully She laid there watching her for a few more seconds until Jane closed hers mouth and gripped Maura tighter.

Maura couldn't help but remember all the time Jane would wake her up by tickling her endlessly so she decided that it was time for pay back. Laughing silently Maura reached over and pinched the bridge of Jane's nose. Maura watched as Jane tried to breathe in and chocked.

Jane shot up in bed breathing hard.

Maura erupted in laughter at the sight of a wide eyed and crazy haired Jane looking around the room frantically. Maura was laughing so hard she tried to suppress it by bringing her pillow over her head.

Jane was currently looking around the bedroom wondering why she couldn't breathe and whose bed she was in but some muffled girly laughter from the right side of the bed triggered her memory.

Looking over to hers right shoulder she was greeted by a pillow face, two hands securely holding a pillow to a face and blonde hair flowing out from beneath it with shoulders shaking from suppressed laughter.

Jane glared down at the pillow.

"Now Maura was that necessary" asked Jane trying to sound mad but amusement was making its way into hers voice. Jane heard another bout of suppressed laughter into the pillow as the pillow shook up and down in a nod.

Jane smirked down at the pillow. "Maura dear, I think you owe me apology," said Jane sweetly.

The pillow simply moved back and forth, and a mumble of something that sounded a lot like "Never" came from beneath the pillow.

"Maura Isles, you apologize" ordered Jane smirking.

Maura let the pillow fall off her face real quick to look Jane in the eye, "Nope" she laughed and the pillow found its place back to her face as laughter could be heard from beneath it.

"You are full of it this morning" stated Jane as she rolled over on top of Maura pinning her to the bed. "You are not going to apologize to me?" asked Jane again to the pillow face.

Once again the pillow shook back and forth signaling to her hers answer.

"Fine," sighed Jane trying to sound defeated. "I guess I will just have to torture it out of you," she yelled as hers hands began to tickle Maura ribs endlessly.

Maura instantly responded to hers torture as she began thrashing under her body under Jane's as she shrieked with laughter.

"Apologize!" yelled Jane laughing.

"NO" screamed Maura into the pillow still shrieking with laughter.

"Do it" laughed Jane, "You know you want to" she teased as she continued to torture her.

Maura threw off the pillow and yelled "Never" out loud to her.

Maura's laughter which was no longer constricted by the pillow could be heard loud and clear to Jane which just made her smirk more.

Leaning down Jane swallowed Maura's laughter with a smoldering kiss, stopping her torture as she put all hers emotions into the kiss making Maura's laughter turn into moans of approval.

Pulling back from the kiss Jane down into Maura's eyes and flashed her a smile, "Good morning Maura" whispered Jane.

"Good morning Jane" smiled Maura as she leaned up to kiss Jane on the lips but Jane pulled back and raised an eyebrow at her.

Maura just merely raised an eyebrow in return.

"I believe you have something to say to me" said Jane sweetly.

"I don't know what you are talking about," said Maura innocently smiling up at Jane.

"So you don't know who pinched my nose while I was sleeping?" asked Jane playfully glaring down at Maura.

"It was probably Joe," said Maura smiling sweetly.

"Hmm…" hummed Jane staring down at Maura amusement definite in her eyes, "well then I guess I will just have to go take a shower all by myself since someone won't say they are sorry."

Jane untangled herself from Maura and started to walk towards the bathroom. She smirked when she heard the small quick footsteps of Maura following her.


"Don't you dare," shouted Maura in a girlish voice as she erupted in laughter as soon as she slipped in the shower.

A deep chuckle from Jane followed Maura's shriek as she was currently holding a wet, slippery but most importantly naked Maura under the water as she blasted it on freezing cold.

"Jane stop," laughed Maura as she struggle to get out of hers arms and the freezing water.

"Not so much fun is it Maura to be picked on," whispered Jane huskily in her ear as she pulled Maura back from the cold water and turned her in hers strong arms so she could see her face.

Jane smirked when she saw Maura narrow her eyes at her giving her best, I could kill you right now, look.

"Just say…it Maura and I will stop," emphasized Jane as she moved Maura just an inch backwards toward the cold water.

Maura instantly felt the cold sprinkles of water hit her in the back as she took in a sharp intake breath and pushed her body as close to Jane as possible trying to get out of the water.

Maura laughed however when she heard a growl escape from Jane's lips as her thigh accidentally rubbed against Jane's center. Maura stared up at Jane smiling evily.

"Ahh…" said Maura knowingly as her smirked turned into a sly smile as she began to rub her hands up and down Jane's body.

"Looks like big bad Jane has a weakness …" she paused to stand up on her tiptoes and whispered up into hers ear huskily, "…that I am going to use to my advantage," as her hand slowly crept down hers chest and cupped her fully.

Maura was thoroughly enjoying messing with Jane instead of Jane messing with her like usual. A look of realization crossed her face however as she smirked at Jane as a single thought popped into her head.

"You know I have woke up 3 times this week being tickled," stated Maura smiling sweetly at Jane, "and I don't recall getting an apology."

Maura stopping her hand and she smiled coyly at Jane as brown arousal clouded eyes snapped open and looked at her curiously.

"Say…it," whispered Maura laughing at the look of pure shock on Jane's face at her words.

"Maura…" started Jane.

"Say…it," stressed Maura as she tightened her grip on Jane slightly her eyes dancing with amusement when Jane stifled a groan and smacked hers hand on the side of shower in approval.

It took a few seconds for Jane get control over herself before she stared back down at the Maura.

"Don't play this game with me Maura," groaned Jane as she swiftly grabbed both of Maura's hands and backed her up against the wall under the surprisingly now warm water and pinning Maura's hands above her head.

"Unless you are willing to play dirty," purred Jane in Maura's ear as she clasped Maura's wrists above her head with one hand while Jane's other hand started an achingly slow journey down Maura's arms down her body.

"Cheater," bit our Maura as she struggled with get her hand out of Jane's tight grasp. But when Jane's wandering hand found its way down to her breasts she went instantly limp in Jane's arms and gave a moan of approval.

"Not cheating," whispered Jane into Maura's ear before placing a gentle kiss to the skin right behind it, "Just being smarter then you for once."

Bending down she started to kisses down her throat as hers hand continued their journey down her body to the juncture in between Maura's legs.

"Its cheating," hissed Maura as Jane found the spot that spot that literally turned her legs into jello.

"I can't do this to you," moaned Maura.

"Really because…" Jane paused to work hers talented fingers and listen to Maura's throaty moan echo off the shower walls,…"just a few moments ago our roles were reversed."

"Yes but," clenched out Maura, "You are pinning me to the wall, it is an unfair advantage."

"I know," laughed Jane, "and I plan on taking full advantage of it.," as she worked Maura closer and closer to her release as she struggled to under hers hand to break free and touch her.

Maura was whimpering, moaning, screaming and gasping for breath as Jane tortured her shamelessly, "Play fair Jane," gasped Maura

"Ohh…don't' worry Maura," whispered Jane as she felt the all too familiar clenching in her inner muscles, "you will have your wicked way with me soon."

"Sweet Jesus," Jane heard Maura.

"I thought you didn't believe in a higher power," chuckled Jane as she began her sweet torturing of Maura.

"I will believe in any religion in the world as long as you keep doing that to me," whispered Maura.

"Really," laughed Jane amused.

"Jewish, Baptist, Christian, Catholic, Muslim, Buddhist…" mumbled Maura, "I will even worship snakes like that covenant down in Tennessee….just don't stop," she choked out.

"Say it then," whispered Jane huskily biting Maura's ear emphasizing her point full, "you know you want to Maura…" said Jane letting Maura's wrists go slowly.

Maura knew Jane was stubborn as the come and knew full well she would not get the release she wanted unless she gave in. Smiling at Jane's words Maura brought her hands up to Jane's face and placed a kiss to Jane's chin, "I"…kiss to Jane's cheek…"Am"…kissing Jane's on the foreheads…"Sorry" and she placed a long lingering kiss on Jane's lips.

Maura pulled back and rested her forehead against Jane's and moaned as she clenched at Jane's forearms.

"Am I forgiven?" moaned out Maura.

"No," whispered Jane smiling, "but I am sure you can make it up to me in a little bit," and with that Jane continued to pleasure Maura bringing her closer and closer to her release.

A half an hour later they were sitting on the shower floor Maura leaning up against the tile as she Jane leaned against her gasping for breath.

Finally Jane spoke, "I take it back…" she paused to catch hers breathe, "you are forgiven" whispered Jane who was clearly exhausted.

"That…was…amazing," gasped Jane.

Maura smiled as she leaned down placed light kissed to the top of Jane's wet hair before leaning down and placing a soft kiss to the shell of Jane's ear and whispering, "That was just the beginning," said Maura.


Maura couldn't but smile over her cup of coffee as she stared at across the table at Jane who was sitting Indian Style in her chair eating cereal and trying read the paper at the same time.

Jane took a giant spoonful of her Reese's Puffs into her mouth when she suddenly felt Maura's eyes on her. Jane looked up from the paper at Maura with the spoon still in her mouth some milk dribbling down her chin.

"Whhaa?" mumbled Jane spoon still in mouth as she reached up and wiped the milk off her chin away with her hand.

Maura just smiled at her and tilted her head to side studying Jane.

"You are incredibly adorable, do you know that?" teased Maura taking a sip of coffee smirking into the cup as she saw Jane narrow her eyes at her.

Jane reached up and took the spoon from her mouth and pointed at Maura threateningly, "I am not adorable," she deadpanned.

"The fact that you are sitting Indian Style on your chair in a pair of Boston Red Sox boxers and wife beater eating Reese's Puffs and succeeding in getting more milk on the news paper then actually reading it, begs to differ," teased Maura.

"If you think this is adorable then you would find the whole Rizzoli family to be adorable…" started Jane but she broke off at the mere mention of her family caused a bunch of emotions to run ramped in her body.

Maura smile instantly turned into a deep frown as she stared at Jane's sudden change of playfulness to sadness at the mention of her family.

Maura set her coffee back down on the table at stared at Jane worriedly.

"They didn't take the news well," stated Maura trying to get Jane to open up to her.

Jane at the moment seemed to find something extremely interesting in her cereal as she started push the few pieces of Reese's Puffs she had left around in the bowl.

"Jane…" started Maura softly.

"They pretty much told me that they didn't accept me," said Jane softly still playing with her cereal. "They did however tell me that our church has "classes" that help people like me," growled Jane.

Maura's shot wide at Jane's words.

"They didn't…" gasped Maura.

"Ohh..they did all right," said Jane anger evident in her voice.

"Jane they will come around…"

"I don't care if they do or not," yelled Jane pushing her cereal away from her as she jumped of from her seat. "If my parents can't accept me because I happened to be in love with a woman….then…then…" stammered Jane. "Then they really aren't the parents I thought they were," said Jane softly giving Maura one teary eyed look before walking into the bedroom.

Maura stood up quickly and followed her into the room. She paused at the doorway as she saw Jane sitting on her bed staring off into the distance as she pet Joe Friday.

"Jane…" started Maura walking into the room.

"I don't want to talk about it Maura," choked out Jane not making eye contact with Maura.

"Jane I love you," said Maura sitting at the edge of the bed giving Jane her space. "I just wanted to tell you that."

Jane stared off into the distance for a few seconds before bring her eyes to Maura, "thanks Maura, I love you too," she whispered.

The two stared at each other for quite sometime both not knowing what to say. Maura didn't want to push Jane into opening up to her and Jane knew if she did try and talk to Maura she would end up crying in her arms and that is certainly not what she wanted to do.

The ringing of Jane's cell phone on the nightstand broke through the silence.

Glaring at the phone Jane reached over flipped it open and held it to her ear.

"Rizzoli," growled Jane into the phone.

Maura watched Jane listen to whoever was on the phone.

Jane sat up in the bed and ran a hand through her hair, "Ya I will be there in an hour," sighed Jane into the phone. "No you don't have to call Maura, she is with me."

Jane listened to the phone and then smirked.

"You better watch it old man you don't want to get too excited and have a heart attack," teased Jane into the phone before flipping it shut.

Jane stared up at Maura who was staring at her questioningly.

"That was Korsak, we got a dead body in a car with an ice pick in his neck," sighed Jane.

"It is supposed to be our day off," stated Maura.

"Ya well tell that to the murdered guy Maura," sighed Jane as she jumped from the bed.

"Why would I talk to a dead person? He is dead Jane. He is not going to speak back," said Maura confused.

Jane gave out a chuckle before walking up to Maura and wrapping her arms around her.

"Now who is the adorable one," teased Jane.

Realization dawned on Maura's face at Jane's words, "you were being sarcastic weren't you," sighed Maura which caused Jane to laugh and lean in and give Maura a short soft kiss.

"Yes honey," drawled Jane, "now go get cute, we have a murder to solve," she said before walking away from Maura to her small side of Maura's closet.

"You don't even know if it is a murder yet Jane," stated Maura as she walked into the bathroom. "I haven't even done an autopsy."

Jane just shook her head at Maura's words as she grabbed a suit out of the closet, "What part of ice pick in the neck didn't you hear?" yelled Jane smiling.
