Characters aren't mine.


Monday was finally here, the day Jane could return to work. She woke up early, before the alarmed sounded. She got up and showered, started the coffeemaker, and took Jo out for a walk while Maura slept. Maura was putting her shoes on as Jane and Jo returned from their walk.

"Hey, you're up early," Maura said smiling at the detective.

"Couldn't sleep," Jane replied as she walked over to kiss Maura good morning. "Morning."

"Is something bothering you?" the blonde asked.

"No, I'm just excited to get back to work," Jane replied. She watched as Maura's eyes raked over her body. "What?"

Maura cleared her throat before she replied, "oh…nothing. I just missed seeing you in your work clothes. You're so sexy in them." Maura knew her pupils must have dilated as her skin flushed and her breathing became shallow.

"Really?" Jane asked surprised. "I didn't think you liked my work clothes."

"Well, they may not be my style, but you look amazing," Maura replied. "Although you look amazing in everything." She then softly kissed Jane on the lips before whispering, "Or in absolutely nothing." Jane couldn't help blushing at the compliment. Maura captured Jane's lips in a deep kiss and rested her hands on the detective's belt buckle. "How much time do we have before work?"

Jane's breathing hitched as she replied, "Half hour or so." That look in Maura's eyes alone caused the detective to soak through her panties.

"That's plenty of time," Maura said as she undid the buckle and buttons on the brunette's pants. She pushed Jane back against the wall as she kissed her deeply and slid her right hand down the front of Jane's pants.

"Maur…" Jane breathed out.

"Do you want me to stop?" the blonde asked as she trailed kisses down Jane's neck. She ran her fingers through the brunette's wet folds.

Jane arched her hips into Maura's hand trying to relieve the sudden ache between her legs. "God no," she replied as she tangled her fingers in Maura's honey-blonde locks. Jane pulled her up so their lips could meet and she kissed her passionately. "Please don't stop," she said between kisses.

Maura smiled knowing she could turn her normally strong detective into mush in mere seconds. She slid two fingers inside Jane, causing her to moan loudly. "Fuck…Maura." Maura resumed kissing the detective's neck as she pumped her fingers in and out of her. She felt Jane's muscles begin to tighten around her hand. She thrust deeper and faster into the brunette, pressing on her clit with her palm.

Jane called out Maura's name as her orgasm washed over her. Maura eased her down to the floor as her legs suddenly became very weak. She was straddling Maura on the floor as she came down. "Wow…" Jane said as she lifted her head off of Maura's shoulder. "That was fucking incredible."

Maura smiled at her, "Language, sweetie." She then pulled Jane into a kiss. "I'm glad you enjoyed it though."

"Yeah…that was…wow…" Jane replied with a kiss. "I had no idea my work clothes had this effect on you."

"Yeah…I'm sorry," Maura said blushing. "I just couldn't help myself."

"Why do you keep apologizing for mind-blowing sex? It's completely unnecessary," Jane smirked as she stood up. She held her hand out to help Maura up. "Like I said, it was incredible. And now I don't feel so dirty having the same thoughts about you in those sexy dresses you wear to work. You have no idea how many times I wanted to lay you down on your desk and fuck you so hard after watching you strut around in those damn dresses." Once they were both standing Jane wrapped her arms around the petite blonde. Before Maura could say anything Jane added, "I know. Language. I'm sorry," she smiled as she kissed the honey-blonde hair. "I wish I had time to return the favor."

"I'm expecting you to tonight," Maura smirked.

"Definitely."

"You ready to go?"

"I just have to change my panties first, then yes," Jane replied as she released hold on the blonde. She headed into the bedroom to change. She was buckling her belt as she walked back into the living room. She kissed Maura then asked, "Would you be offended if I suggest we take our own cars? I'm just not ready for people to start gossiping about us yet."

"I completely understand sweetie. I love you," Maura said before placing a soft kiss on her detective's lips. "I'll see you at work."

"Love you too," Jane kissed the M.E. back. "I'm gonna stop for coffee on the way."

"Okay," Maura replied. She kissed Jane one last time then left.


Maura arrived at the precinct first and was greeted by Frost and Korsak in the lobby.

"Hi Dr. Isles," Frost said.

"Hey Doc," Korsak smiled at the M.E.

"Hello Barry, Vince," Maura greeted. "And as I said before, please call me Maura."

"Where's Jane?" Frost asked. "I thought she was supposed to be back today."

"She alright?" Korsak inquired.

"She's fine," Maura responded. "She's on her way. She thought it best that we didn't arrive together."

"You two okay?" Korsak asked.

"We are very good, thank you," Maura replied. "She's just not ready for people to start gossiping about us. Although I don't care what people say, I understand where she's coming from."

"Yeah, some of the guys here can be real assholes," Korsak replied.

"Hey! Watch your mouth in front of the lady," Jane said as she walked up, four coffees in hand. She had a huge smile on her face as she walked over and stood by Maura. She caught herself as she was about to instinctively lean in to kiss the blonde. She instead held out the tray of coffee. "Here," she said awkwardly. "I got you coffee."

"Thank you," Maura smiled at her. She lightly grazed her fingertips across Jane's hand before taking her cup. They both had their eyes locked on the other.

"Sorry to interrupt," Korsak cut in, "but are those for us?"

"Huh?" Jane said, forgetting for a moment where she was. "Sorry. Yeah, here."

"Welcome back Janie," Korsak smiled at her as her took his cup.

Frost to the last cup then asked, "How are ya feeling? In any pain?"

"I feel great," Jane answered as they headed for the elevators. "Let's not make a big deal about me being back. I just wanna get back to work."

"Alrighty. Wasn't planning on it," Frost smiled at his partner.

"See you guys upstairs. I'm gonna walk Maura to her office," Jane said as she pushed the down button for the elevator.

"'Kay, don't get too distracted down there though," Korsak winked. "They're expecting you upstairs.

"Shut up Korsak," Jane said as she and Maura stepped onto the elevator. As soon as the doors closed Jane wrapped her free hand around the blonde and captured her lips in a passionate kiss. "I'm sorry about before. I got used to kissing you whenever I wanted and forgot for a second where we were."

"It's okay, sweetie," Maura replied. "I would accept a kiss from you regardless of where we are."

"I'm sorry babe," Jane sighed. "I…it's just…"

"Hey," Maura interrupted her as she brought her hand up to cup Jane's cheek. "It's okay. I get it. It's difficult enough being the only female homicide detective. I know how hard you've worked to gain the respect of your colleagues and earn the reputation you have. I don't want to make things any harder for you." She placed a soft kiss to her detective's lips. "I love you. I don't mind keeping things completely professional around our co-workers as long as when we're away from work I can show my affection for you."

"You can do whatever you want to me when we're not at work," Jane smirked. "I just need a little more time before I'm ready to deal with the jokes and innuendo from the guys." The elevator doors opened into the morgue. Jane placed kissed on Maura's hand before she stepped off. "Love you."


Jane's first day back was slow and boring seeing as how she was chained to her desk. The unit had a small welcome back party at the end of the day for her, complete with cake, flowers, and a card signed by the whole department. All of which Jane told them was completely unnecessary.

"Where's Maura?" she asked as she pulled Frost off to the side of the room.

"I went down to let her know about this so she could be here, but she said she had to cut out early," Frost replied.

"She left?" Jane sounded surprised. "She didn't say anything."

"Oh yeah. She wanted me to tell you she had an errand to run and she'd meet you at her place," the young detective replied.

"Oh…did she say what?" Jane asked.

"Nope," Frost replied.

"'Kay thanks," she said. "Well, I'm gonna head home. Can you tell everyone I said thanks again?"

"Sure thing," he smiled at her. "See you tomorrow Jane."

"See ya," she replied before she left.
