Rizzles it is. Thanks for all the nice words. I hope you will like this chapter. I know it is a lot of information. But now the story can really get some Jane Maura and children time. Sry, by the way that the update took a while university is really exhausting at the moment.

"I presume that since both of the children are with you now and that you have rooms prepared for them that Jennifer died of the injuries of the car accident?" Jane asked softly, already knowing the answer because of Maura's eyes.

"Yes. She woke up 3 days after her surgery and I was beginning to think that everything would turn out good. She wished to see her children and I brought them to her quickly. I left the room to give them privacy. After about an hour AJ came out and said Jen wanted to talk to me. I had seen trough the blinds that she had talked with him very seriously, to this point I don't know what she told him. When I came back we didn't talk at all just looked at each other. AJ and Sophia seemed happy and content and talked with their mother. At some point both fell asleep on the couch in the room. When she was sure they were both asleep she began talking." Maura looked up tears in her eyes again but her voice mostly steady. "Jane, she knew she wouldn't make it. She made me promise to take her children and to look after them for her. She died in the morning, before the surgery Jane. How could she not fight for them Jane?" Maura asked, a little bitterness in her voice.

"Maura! Maura." Jane said, raising her voice, but keeping calm. "She woke up just for them Maura. She made sure that there was someone she trusted to take over for her. Someone who is kind, caring and gentle and who will do everything in her power to make sure that these children are not only taken care of financially but that they will have a loving home. You gave her peace Maura, because of you she could go, without having failed her children. Do you know what a great service you have done her?" Jane asked, now holding a crying Maura in her arms again.

They sat in Maura's living-room for a while, Jane holding Maura in her arms. There was no sound being made, it was a peaceful quietness surrounding them.

"So Maura, how come that little Sophia is a spitting image of you? I mean the nose, the lips her whole face. This could be baby-you lying in that room." Jane wanted to know. Now that she was thinking about it even AJ had some of Maura's facial features.

"Jane." Maura looked up, apprehending the reaction of Jane to the next piece of news of that night. "When I said that the were mine, I wasn't lying. As you know Jen and I have been friends for a long time. She had know that she herself couldn't carry her own babies and that she would need an egg donor. Her twin brother had already agreed to be the sperm donor and since I knew that she would be a great mother I was glad to help her. Her brother died in a car crash before AJ was born that is why she named him after his uncle. Sophia was a miracle. Jen had become a mom without a partner, she just knew she was ready for a kid and so just went along with it. Her wife loved AJ and wanted to have another one with Jen. They still had my eggs but Jen was reluctant, because she didn't just want a anonymous sperm donor. On her birthday, her brothers lawyer was standing at her door with a letter from her brother. Her brother had been so happy for her and just wanted to make sure that if she ever wanted to have more children that he had left her enough "material", as he called it, to do so. So yes, biology wise I am their biological mother, we share the same DNA, but they don't know that jet. Jen was going to tell AJ and Sophia when they were older." Maura ended awaiting the reaction.

Jane was silent, she would definitely need some time to sort it all out in her head. " Does Ma already know about the two?" Jane asked.

Maura was a little surprised that Jane was taking all of this so well so far, but instead of wondering to long about that she answered Jane's question. "No she hasn't met them jet. I phoned her from London to tell her that people would be coming to do some renovations in the house. She said she could keep an eye on the for me, but I assured her, they had worked for my family's foundation and that they could be trusted in my house alone. So she doesn't know jet. Why?"

"Oh, come on Maura, you know my mother. She sees you as a daughter and so there in these rooms are her other new grandchildren." Jane explained, pointing upstairs.

"Do you really think so? I am not so sure about her reaction to these news. I don't think she will handle these as well as you did." Maura voiced her worries.

"Are you kidding me Maura? You are the daughter she never had. She will love the two in an instant. Don't worry about telling my mom. I will be with you, if you want." Jane offered.

"That would put me more at ease. My parents have handled the situation with grace but I think they are still to much in shock of becoming grandparents from one day to an other of a three and an one year old child. They of course have accepted my decision and offered their help and assistance but the still seemed overwhelmed." Maura told Jane.

" I can hardly hold that against them." Jane began, but had to stop because a yawn came out of her mouth.

" Oh Jane. I am sorry I have kept you awake past 2 a.m." Maura realized, looking at her watch.

"That late? I should really get going. Ma already has made me promised to attend tomorrows Sunday dinner." Jane said, getting up and stretching herself.

"Jane, you shouldn't be driving anymore now. You are tiered, stay her for the night. You still have clothes here so you won't even have to go to your apartment later today. Please?" Maura asked, looking at Jane with a face that Jane couldn't resist.

"Alright!" Jane said, giving up, not even having the power to argue.

They went to Maura's room and got ready. While Maura was in her bathroom Jane changed into an old BPD shirt, which smelled like Maura. She loved wearing her shirt with Maura's smell on it. It was like a comfort blanket surrounding her. Maura came out of the bathroom, also wearing on of Jane's old shirts. "Now I am not surprised why I don't find my shirts anymore, apparently you stole them all and now use them as a sleeping shirt." Jane said with a smile and a raised eyebrow.

"I have to object to that. I am merely cleaning your dirty laundry that you somehow always seem to forget after we go for a run in the park together and only your shirts you never forget your pants." Maura responded with a raised eyebrow a small smile playing around her lips.

They both got into Maura's bed, which was normal for them. When their sleepovers had started, Jane had went to one of the guestrooms, but over the time, the rhythm changed and after getting ready, they still wanted to talk to each other and they fell asleep over it, waking up in the same bed as a result. In the end they had just given up on separate rooms and stayed in Maura's master bedroom.

Now they were lying facing each other and even though it was dark Jane could see the worry in Maura's face.

"Jane?" came the softly spoken name from Maura's lips.

Jane didn't have to ask what was wrong, she pulled Maura to her and like a security blanket put her arms around her. "Everything will be okay Maur. You are not alone in this. I will always be there for you!" Jane said feeling Maura relax into her warm embrace.
