Characters aren't mine.
Jane awoke the next morning the same way she had fallen asleep, lying on top of her girlfriend, feeling Maura running her fingers through her hair. Jane let out a content sigh then placed a gentle kiss on her lover's chest. She looked up to see Maura smiling down at her.
"Mhmm…g'morning," she said as she moved up to meet Maura's lips.
Maura returned the kiss while wrapping her arms around the brunette's slender body. "Good morning. Did you sleep well?"
"I slept amazingly well," Jane replied. She continued to kiss the blonde's jaw line and neck.
"Sweetie, I have to get up," Maura said after a minute, keeping her arms around Jane.
"Why?" Jane asked between kisses.
"I have to go to work," Maura answered, still making no effort to extricate herself from her lover. Jane concentrated her kisses on the spot above Maura's collarbone. Maura felt Jane's left hand move down her side and slide between her legs. Her breathing hitched and she said, "I guess I can be a little late."
"That sounds better," Jane said. Then she whispered in the blonde's ear, "Mhmm...baby...you're so wet. I love that I do this to you."
Maura parted her legs for Jane as she began stroking the blonde's wet folds. She pressed down on her clit, causing Maura to let out a loud moan and arch into her hand. Jane responded by sliding two fingers inside her, stroking her inner walls. She leaned on her right hand as she continued kissing, licking and nipping at Maura's neck.
"Jane?" Maura breathed.
"Yeah babe," Jane replied between kisses.
"Use your hips, like last night," Maura instructed. "It feels amazing and I want you to come with me."
Jane shifted on the bed, positioning her body between Maura's legs. "Like this?" she asked as she began rolling her hips, pushing her hand deeper into the blonde.
"Yes," Maura moaned in response. "Jane…oh god…" Jane started to move faster as Maura moans grew louder and more urgent. "Oh Jane…fuck…"
Jane felt her own body close to the edge so she thrust deeper into Maura, making sure to bring her with her. She felt the blonde's muscles begin to constrict around her hand. After a few more thrusts, she felt Maura's muscles clench as she dug her nails into the brunette's back. With that, Jane let herself go, screaming Maura's name as she came.
Jane laid down next to Maura, laying her arm across the blonde's waist. "I could definitely get used to this."
"I love you," Maura said as she pulled Jane into a kiss. She then slid out from under the detective's arm.
"Where ya going?" Jane asked.
"I told you, I have to go to work," Maura replied kissing Jane again before climbing out of the bed. "And now I'm late."
"Are you complaining?" Jane teased as she watched the M.E. walk towards the bathroom.
"Definitely not," Maura said smiling back at the brunette. "I'm just in a bit of a hurry now. I'm going to take a quick shower."
"Mind if I join you?" Jane asked smiling.
"That would actually be rather counter-productive," Maura replied.
"Huh?''
"I'm taking a shower so that I don't go to work looking as though I've just had sex," Maura clarified. "And you joining me would most likely lead to more sex."
"More sex would be a bad thing?" Jane asked playfully.
"Do you want the whole precinct to know that I've had sex this morning?" Maura asked. "Especially seeing as how most of them know that I am staying with you while you recuperate?"
"I guess not," Jane resigned lying back on the bed.
"I'll be quick," Maura said before closing the bathroom door.
Jane laid there for a moment smiling as she thought about the perfect night she just spent with her perfect girlfriend. She rose from the bed still smiling. She found a t-shirt and pair of shorts to wear, then headed to the kitchen to make coffee. Once the coffee was brewing she popped a bagel in the toaster for Maura. She reached up into the cupboard to retrieve her mug and her travel mug for Maura. A jolt of pain went through her abdomen as she did this.
"Shit," she said as she pressed her hand on her scar. Maura walked in just then to see her in pain. She was quickly at the brunette's side.
"Sweetie, are you okay?" she asked worriedly.
"Babe, I'm fine," Jane answered quickly moving her hand away from the scar.
"No you're not," Maura replied as she placed her hand on Jane's stomach. "Maybe last night wasn't such a good idea," she said as she lifted Jane's shirt to look at the wound.
"Don't say that," Jane said. "Last night was perfect. So was this morning. I'm not complaining and I wouldn't change a thing." She pulled Maura into her arms.
"But you're hurt," Maura replied.
"Babe, I'm fine. Really," Jane reassured her. "I made you a quick breakfast," she said trying to change the subject. She then turned to pour some coffee into the travel mug and grabbed the bagel from the toaster. "Here."
"I will take those if you'll take some of your pain medication," Maura replied as she turned to get the meds.
"Will that make you feel better?"
"Yes."
"Fine," the brunette said as she took the pill from Maura and popped it in her mouth, taking a sip of coffee to wash it down.
"Thank you," Maura said. She then took the coffee and bagel Jane offered again. "Now, I have to go," she said as she kissed Jane. "I'll see you tonight, if not before then."
Maura turned to leave, but Jane grabbed her arm and pulled her back. She captured the blonde's lips in a passionate kiss before releasing her. "Love you."
"I love you, too," Maura replied slightly out of breath.
"Goodbye," Jane said kissing her one last time. When Maura didn't turn to leave, Jane asked, "You okay babe?"
"Hmm? Oh yeah… I was leaving," Maura replied blushing. "I forgot what I was doing for a moment." She smiled up at Jane, "your kisses tend to have that effect on me."
"I've noticed," Jane replied smiling.
"Goodbye Jane," Maura said with one last quick kiss.
"Goodbye babe," Jane said as Maura walked out the door.
The effects of the pain meds were starting to kick in so Jane decided to go back to bed. She stripped of her shirt and shorts before climbing into bed. She fell asleep thinking of Maura.
Jane was relaxing on the couch when Maura arrived home. A huge grin spread across her face as the M.E. walked through the door. "Hey babe."
"Hi," Maura replied returning the smile. She hung her coat and purse on the hook by the door. She slipped her shoes off and placed her keys on the table behind the couch before taking a seat next to Jane.
"How was work?" Jane asked. She could tell the blonde was exhausted. She wrapped her arm around Maura, pulling her against her.
"Tiring," Maura answered as she rested her head on the detective's shoulder.
"Big case?" Jane inquired.
"I already told you that I'm not discussing work with you while you're on leave." Maura answered.
"'Kay, sorry," Jane let it go not wanting to irritate the already exhausted doctor. "You look beat."
"I'm fine, sweetie," Maura smiled. "How are you feeling?"
"I feel great," Jane replied.
"Did you need anymore pain medication after I left?"
"Nope," the brunette smiled. "I slept for a little while after you left. I took Jo for a walk, which felt great. Cleaned up my room a bit."
"You cleaned?" Maura replied.
"Yeah, well, we kinda left our clothes all over the place last night," Jane smirked. She then got up from the couch and walked into the kitchen. She poured a glass of wine for Maura and she returned to the couch. After handing the wine to Maura she took a seat behind her girlfriend. Jane began to massage the tense muscles in Maura's neck and shoulders.
"Thank you," Maura said sipping the wine. She sighed contently as she felt Jane's strong hands ease the tension in her muscles. "Hmm…that feels good."
"I love you," Jane whispered in the blonde's ear. After a few minutes of massaging Maura's neck and shoulders, the blonde laid back and relaxed into Jane's arms. "So, how was your day?" Maura tried to sit up but Jane held her tight. "I'm not asking about any cases. I just wanna know if you had a good day."
Maura relaxed into Jane's arms again. "If that is all you're asking, yes, I had a good day. Tiring, but good. We closed the case we had been working on."
"That's good," Jane replied, rubbing Maura's arms.
"It was a very long process, but it ended well. Thankfully," Maura said. "I miss seeing you at work. You stopping by the morgue was always a highlight in my day. Even if I was in the middle of an autopsy."
"I miss being there too," Jane replied. "I can't stand sitting around on my ass all day."
"Language, sweetie."
"Sorry, babe," Jane smiled. She placed a kiss on the blonde's temple, then added, "Well, next week we can get back to our inappropriate, flirty, eye-sex thing we supposedly did." That made Maura laugh, which in turn made Jane smile.
"If your physical therapist clears you," Maura reminded.
"I already got a doctor's note saying I can return to work."
"That note says you can return to light duty."
"I know. I'll be chained to my desk. At least I'll be at work. I'm going stir crazy here."
"I am definitely looking forward to you being back at work. I've always loved watching you work. I just don't want you to over do it. I have a feeling keeping you at your desk will prove to be difficult," Maura smiled at her detective.
"Well, maybe I can spend some extra time in the morgue," Jane smirked.
"That would be nice."
"You really like watching me work?"
"Yes, you are very good at your job," Maura replied. "Watching you piece together all the clues to solve your cases is very interesting. You are far more intelligent that you give yourself credit for. You also have this air of confidence that I find incredibly sexy."
"Really? I had no idea," Jane said holding the blonde tighter.
"Jane," Maura replied as she turned her head to kiss the brunette, "I find everything about you sexy. Your confidence, your intelligence, your strength…all sexy." She kissed Jane again as she turned to lie back on the couch, pulling Jane down with her.
"I find you incredibly sexy too, doc," Jane replied when the kiss broke. She rested her forehead against Maura's just enjoying the closeness. After a moment she asked, "Are you hungry?"
"Yes, actually. I skipped lunch so I wouldn't have to work late," Maura answered. "Do you want me to order something?"
"Nope. I got it," Jane said rising from the couch.
"You don't have to do that sweetie," Maura said as Jane headed towards the kitchen.
"I know. I want to," Jane said. "This brilliant woman once said that thirty-two percent of divorces happen because of an inequality in domestic chores," the brunette said smiling at Maura. "You've been taking care of me for weeks. I wanna take care of you tonight." She retrieved some pans and started gathering ingredients for dinner. "How's pasta piselli sound?"
"It sounds wonderful," Maura replied as she walked into the kitchen. She walked up behind Jane and wrapped her arms around the detective's waist. "And for the record, I do not think of taking care of you as a chore," the blonde said before softly kissing Jane's neck.
"Mhmm…that feels good," Jane said, leaning back on Maura. The blonde continued to place soft kisses on Jane's neck.
"I love coming home to you after a long day at work," Maura said between kisses. She squeezed Jane's waist before releasing her. "Let me help."
"No, I want to cook for you," Jane replied as she turned to face her. "A thank you for putting up with me these past few weeks."
"Jane," Maura sighed.
"Hey, I know I can be a pain in the ass," Jane said.
"Language, Jane," Maura replied. "And I haven't thought of you as a pain." She wrapped her arms back around the slender brunette. "I've really enjoyed staying here with you."
"Yeah? Not sick of me yet?" Jane asked playfully.
"Of course not. Are you sick of me?"
"I could never be sick of you babe," Jane replied. "There is this one little thing though."
"What? Did I do something…?" Maura started to panic thinking she had upset Jane.
Jane interrupted her with a kiss. She then whispered, "I just don't think you should get to scold me for my language after what I heard you saying last night." A smile spread across her features as she saw the blush rising in Maura's cheeks.
"You heard that?" Maura replied completely embarrassed.
"Yes, I did," Jane smiled and kissed her girlfriend. "It was so hot."
"Well…I don't think you can hold me responsible for that."
"Oh yeah? And why is that?"
"Because I lost all coherent thought the moment you started touching me."
"So, I should expect that sort of filthy language every time I do this?" Jane leaned down and began kissing the spot she had marked the previous night, eliciting a moan from the doctor.
"Mhmm…yes," Maura replied, tightening her grip on Jane as the brunette started sucking on her sweet spot. When Jane lightly bit down, Maura arched her body into her and whispered, "Oh…fuck."
Jane pulled back with a huge grin on her face and said, "Interesting."
"Why are you stopping?" Maura breathed when Jane pulled back.
"I don't want to burn your dinner," Jane replied turning back to the stove. "You said you skipped lunch, so I want to make sure you eat. Don't worry. I'll pick up where I left off later."
"I suppose that is a good idea. Replenish my energy for tonight," Maura smirked.
"Precisely," Jane smiled back.
