Bitter Embrace
Chapter 6: Spellbound
Maura held Jane tight, wrapping her with support and love. Jane rested her forehead against Maura's in blissful contentment.
"Maura, I adore being in your arms right now, but babe, I have to go lay down before we both end up back on the floor." Jane whispered and looked into Maura's beautiful green eyes. Maura nodded her head gently, pulled back from the embrace, and grabbed Jane's hand. She slowly led Jane to her bedroom, and looking once more into her eyes, gave her a gentle shove towards the bed.
"Jane, snuggle down in your bed and I'm going to go take Jo Friday out for a quick walk. I will grab your spare key out of the drawer and be right back." Maura said as she tucked Jane in bed and gave her a quick kiss on the cheek before walking out of the room. Jane, leaning back against her pillow, smiled a big goofy smile and closed her eyes to await Maura's return; her headache long forgotten and her stomach finally settled.
In the living room, Maura sat down on the couch to put her shoes back on and looking down at Jo said softly, "Jo, you are such a good girl, taking care of your mommy when she was sad." Jo quirked her ear and tilted her head in an 'I'm listening' expression and gazed at Maura with her dark eyes. "Jane loves me. Now I understand her odd behavior, it explains so many unexplained reactions." Jo raised her paw in agreement.
Maura walked over and grabbed Jane's spare key, her cell phone, jacket and Jo's leash off the hook, knelt down and clipped it on, then strode with Jo out the door to finally let Jo go. She ran as far as her little doggy legs could carry her to the nearest patch of grass and yelped a little bark at Maura in thanks. While Jo frolicked around Maura called Frost to update the duo of detectives about Jane. After a couple of rings, Frost picked up the squad phone.
"Hey Barry, this is Doctor Isles. I just wanted to let you and Korsak know everything is fine now. No need for you two to worry, Jo Friday and I have it all under control. I will also be taking the rest of the day off in order to stay with Jane. Would you please notify my assistants?"
Frost cleared his throat after listening and said, "Of course Doctor, I am so glad it all worked out and would you please mention that Korsak and I have it all under control and are doing interviews later today. Feel free to give me a call if you two need anything."
"Will do, you're a good friend." Maura said in a gentle quivering voice, and watched Jo playing. Jo Friday finished her frolicking, trotted over to sit beside Maura's foot, and looked up at her human's mate. "Goodbye Frost.'
"Bye Doc Isles."
Maura closed the phone and tugged Jo's leash, turning to re-enter Jane's apartment building with Jo in tow. She entered Jane's apartment, locked the door, hung up her jacket and looked around it with a critical eye for the first time since arriving earlier, noticing the cluttered kitchen counter, discarded socks and shoes, and the empty soda cans littered about; all an indication of the amount of despair Jane felt over the whole Fairfield situation. Jane's apartment has always been uncluttered and spotless. Entering the kitchen, Maura fed Jo and cleaned the apartment.
She removed her shoes, grabbed a glass of water and aspirin then walked to Jane's bedroom with Jo following close at her heels. She gently stepped into the slightly darkened bedroom, gazing at Jane curled up on the bed, and began to remove her skirt and shirt. Getting into bed and curling up with Jane, Maura closed her eyes and relaxed to wait for Jane to awaken; she drifted off to sleep never feeling the warm arm wrapping gently around her waist holding her securely in place.
Both women slept for two hours until Jo, anxious to have her human pay attention to her jumped on the bed, landing in between warm bodies, waking both Jane and Maura.
Jane grumbled, "Dammit Jo, be still." She turned her head toward Maura and looked into her droopy green eyes, smiling a slight smile. "Hey Maur, been here long?"
Maura gazed at Jane smiling at her and said, "I took Jo out on a walk then cleaned and came to check on you. You looked so comfortable all curled up and I just wanted to be near you." Maura reached her hand out to stroke down Jane's forearm in a gesture of comfort. She slid over towards Jane to give her a soft kiss on her smiling lips. Jane tightened the arm wrapped around Maura and kissed back. She ended the kiss on a sigh and laid her head back on the pillow.
"Maur, can you bring me some water and a couple of pain killers? My head is telling me I should not have sucked down those last few drinks." Jane said and gazed at Maura with a hopeful expression.
"I already got it for you its right on the nightstand." Maura, lifting Jane to a half sitting position got the water and aspirin for her to take. After Jane took the painkillers, Maura helped her to lie back down and wrapped her arms around her, laying her head close to Jane.
"Jane honey, why did you get drunk?" Maura asked with a tilted head and curious expression on her face. She reached a hand out to intertwine Jane's fingers with her own.
Jane looked Maura in the eyes and taking a deep breath said, "I knew I have had feelings for you for a while now and I just assumed it was an infatuation, one that would disappear in time. When I saw how you acted with Garrett at the mansion I got jealous, and very angry at the way you just brushed me off as if I didn't matter to you. Maur, it hurt, a lot. I did not sleep that night or the next; I just kept going over everything in my head and it drove me a little crazy. I decided to take a break and get some coffee and that is when I saw you with him, kissing him, looking at him as if you wanted him. I felt crushed then because I realized I wanted you to look at me that way and I didn't think you ever would. I went to think for a while and I just could not bear to see you and look you in the eyes knowing you spent the last night in his arms. I wanted to forget you but even in my liquor-induced haze, I dreamt of you. I am still a little puzzled how I got so lucky to have you here now."
Jane kept looking at Maura, waiting for her response to the confession. Maura opened her mouth to speak then closed it, breaking eye contact with Jane to gaze down at the bedspread in silent contemplation.
"Jane, I am so sorry for the way I treated you. I was nervous having you meet Garrett, and I realize now though I did not at the time, that it is because I am in love with you. I think I fell for you the moment I gazed into your beautiful eyes. Anyways, Garrett is a suspect and I should not have gotten involved with him again. I think I was trying to prove to myself that I could not be in love with you; but I only thought of you after I saw you standing on the sidewalk. Jane, you were so mean to me and my defense is to be a bitch. I am so sorry. Will you forgive me?" Maura said in a voice filled with desperation and pain. Lifting her head, she looked Jane in her dark eyes and silently pleaded for forgiveness.
"Maura of course I forgive you. Come here," Jane reached for Maura's lips with her own, nibbling and enjoying the warmth of Maura's mouth. Lightly licking the bottom lip with her tongue and exhaling in pleasure.
She pulled Maura on top of her and reached down to guide Maura to straddle her hips, laying their breasts together. Maura began rocking her hips, rubbing her mound against Jane's, continuing to kiss her and rub their breasts together in a gentle arousing rhythm. Releasing a deep moan, Jane reached behind Maura to release her bra, freeing her breasts to rub against Jane's for the first time skin-to-skin, and hard nipples gently kissed.
Pulling back from the deep kiss and resting her hands on the bed next to Jane's shoulders Maura whispered, "You feel so good Jane, I knew you would. So soft. Touch me Jane, feel me." Jane nodding her head, reached down to glide her palms against the side of Maura's breast, trailed her fingers down her waist and to the edge of her hips and thighs, lightly stroking the silk of Maura's panty.
"Maur, I need to be inside you. Please," Jane said in a shaky want filled voice while running her fingers down the front of Maura's panty. Maura nodded her head and moaned in Jane's ear. She lifted up her hips allowing Jane's hand to move aside the crotch of her underwear to touch her soft, saturated skin.
"Your so wet Maura, so warm and smooth," Jane reached for Maura's lips in a deep kiss lightly rubbing her fingers against Maura's hard clit. Moaning in a deep voice, Maura used her position to press down harder on Jane's hand, riding the fingers to increase the friction. In one long stroke, Jane thrust inside Maura with two fingers, pushing deep and curling the tips of her fingers. She used her palm to press against Maura's hard bundle, stoking the fire in her loins.
"Jane. Oh, Jane," Maura gasped out on each down stroke of Jane's fingers inside of her.
"Maura you are the most beautiful woman. Please let me feel you come, I feel you fluttering, grabbing my fingers buried inside you. Let it go Maura, my love." Jane kissed and licked down the side of Maura's neck, increasing the depth of her strokes and sucked gently on Maura's earlobe. Maura, unable to keep her pleasure in, screamed at the moment of her release, continuing to ride Jane's fingers until her pulsing grew still. She captured Jane's lips, sucking the bottom lip between her own and resting her sweaty forehead against Jane's.
Maura, having caught her breath from her orgasm, slid off Jane's hips to straddle her thigh. She kissed down Jane's neck and began a rocking motion with her hips, sliding her thigh up against Jane's wet heat, letting Jane spread her legs and ride her thigh. Jane grabbed Maura's back, pulling her against her, rocking their hips together in tandem. Maura reached up for Jane's lips, capturing them in a deep kiss and moaning. Jane's hips started to quiver against Maura's leg, signaling her approaching orgasm. Gazing into Maura's eyes, she rocked harder and faster watching Maura's wide eyes glaze with pleasure. Jane and Maura came together in a thunderous roar, loud screams issuing from their throats.
Brown eyes looked into green, a silent I love you sent and on twin sighs the lovers drifted to sleep, arms and legs intertwined.
