Hey party people, so I appreciate the feedback. I'm still tinkering with the story; I still may change it up but right now we'll see how it goes. I'm glad to here that you guys are still interested and new folks are enjoying as well. Some of you know that, my life is crazy sauce so unfortunately the chapters wont come out like clock work more sporadic when I can get the chance and the creativity to write. Hope you enjoy the next chapter: I like leaving it suspenseful its so rude lol, jk jk, happy reading!


New Years

"Richard; Constance it was a pleasure meeting you, I need to get out of here before I do something stupid I may regret" Jane says before briskly walking towards the back exit.

"Jane! Jane please wait; I can explain!" Maura says leaving her still confused parents behind; following after Jane.

Jane makes it through the exit doors; currently on the phone figuring out a ride home or the nearest bar. Maura catches up to her; doing so in high heels.

"Jane, please let me explain. I didn't kiss him; he kissed me as I was turning my head. I love you, I would never do that to you. He asked for a dance for the hundredth time, and I said yes to one dance. A innocent dance; I swear it; please believe me." Maura says as she grabs Jane's hands in hers.

"Maura! Jesus Maura I don't know if I can believe that. I mean he's the type of person that you are accustomed to in this world. I mean; Its almost like you didn't want me to come to this event. I clearly could have gotten in; I came with your Father for Christ sakes. Did you even make an attempt to try to get me an invitation. When the hell were going to tell you parents that you were in a relationship? Where you ever going to tell them that we were together? Are you embarrassed by me; that you didn't want people in this society to know about us. I mean dammit Maura; I missed you all night, I wanted to ring in the new year with you. I turned down a request to possibly date Richard's daughter; huh turns out she wasn't as free as he thought; because he didn't know that she was already taken; by ME!" Jane all but screams at Maura.

Jane is pacing in the alley way. Tears in both Maura and Jane's eyes; but not knowing what to at this point.

"Of course I'm not embarrassed by you; I love you. I was told that there were no tickets long before we reconnected; I tried Jane; you have to know that I wanted you here with me. I don't care about those people in there; I never fit in that world anyway. I don't really have the greatest relationship with my parents; it's rare that I see them. I didn't think to share the news about my relationship with you; because we don't talk about those things. It's mainly business opportunities; the next Isles Foundation event; nothing personal about my life or there granchild's." Maura says grabbing Jane's face in hers to get her to listen to her.

"Maura; I don't know what to say or do right now. I need tI'me to think. I mean seriously think about this; if you don't feel like you fit in this world why force yourself to be here. You don't owe your parents anything; why wouldn't you just want to be with me? If you would have told your parents about me; even If I was your "friend" I clearly wouldn't have had a problem getting into this event; your parents are apparently huge fans of mine. I was a guest of honor at your parents table for fucks sake. So I'm trying to piece together; how you're not ashamed of me and our relationship. To top it off; you let some asshole kiss you and feel up on you while dancing. I wonder, did you tell him that you were in a relationship when he asked you to dance a hundred times?" Jane asks pacing again.

"Well, no I didn't; I didn't think...

"What the hell Maura; you didn't think to tell him that you were in a relationship. I can't believe you; after jumping down my throat about women throwing themselves at me; fucking aye. Maura I've shouted it to the rooftops that I'm in a relationship with you; does that ring mean nothing to you?" Jane asks, a town car pulling up behind them.

"Jane, I'm sorry; I'm so sorry. Of course this ring means everything to me. Please believe me, I love you and I just didn't think I needed to tell anybody in that building anything personal about my life. None of them care about me, why should I care to tell them anything?" Maura says, just as Marco comes through the doors of the alley way.

"Yeah well, it would seems that you don't think about us at all; I gotta get out of here. Your new boyfriend is here; wouldn't want to keep you, have a nice life." Jane says before getting into the car and driving off; not seeing a crying Maura falling to her knees.


Present Day

Jane is still in the driveway, looking around; anywhere but at the figure standing in the doorway of the house. She knows that she has to fix this; that her and Maura need to figure out where to go from this. Jane is afraid it may be too late; maybe she over reacted; and never allowed Maura to tell her side if the story. Jane is still hurt about how Maura disregards their relationship; like its non existent and doesn't mean anything. Jane cant take it anymore and decides to drive off; noticing Maura's head drop and shoulders slump as more tears run down her face. Jane drives off and heads towards her apartment; where she can drink away her sorrow again.


A little after 1am

Knock, Knock

Maura moves off the couch; she apparently fell asleep on; and makes her way to the door. Wondering who could be knocking at this tI'me of night or morning as she looks at her watch, she looks through the window and is amazed at who's at the door.

"Jane!" Maura says opening the door; coming face to face with Jane for the first tI'me in weeks.

"Maur, I want to come home. I know I fucked up and I'm also still hurt. I'm not sure if we will get passed this, but I need to be here at least for one night. If its the last night I'm here then so be it; but I can't spend another night ruining my liver thinking about the possibilities of us ending. Baby I want to come home. I miss you and I miss Natalie; I miss us." Jane says crying.

Maura is shocked at what Jane is saying; she hasn't moved from the doorway yet.

"Jane, you could have always come home; I'll always need you here." Maura says moving aside to let Jane in the house. She's looking at Jane; and she can tell she hasn't been sleeping, eating but definitely drinking.

"Baby; I know we have to talk...

"Jane, you came home, we will talk but I want you to just hold me in our bed tonight. I miss you, please come to bed." Maura says headed towards the stairs; lightly guiding Jane with her.

Jane looks at the couch; she doesn't know if its a good idea to go up to the bedroom, but a slight tug from Maura makes up her mind for her.

"Ok Maur, Ok; let's go to bed" Jane says holding Maura's hand as they make their way up the stairs to their bedroom.

Tonight, both Jane and Maura fall asleep with tired but relieved smiles on there faces. Knowing it won't be all fixed over night; and they have a lot to talk about; but that they are under the same roof. That's all either one could ask for; because it's a start to possibilities.

Jane ends up curling up behind Maura; and Maura brings Jane's hands to her chest. Both women don't hear it; but they both say they love each other before falling asleep.


Ok Woohooo almost done with the "angst/ drama" that has begun this new story; I promise. But as many of you guys have mentioned and I agree with; Jane is always the "bad guy" in the Rizzlesverse; so I made Maura a little "bad guy" but nothing too crazy. I love Rizzles all the way, they wont be separated long I promise. I know its short, they unfortunately will short chapters at times but don't worry there will be longer chapters as well. Yes there will be some Nat/Cindy moments not sure to what extent yet. Hope you continue to enjoy the ride. See you soon, you can always drop a line about things you may want to see; I have a bunch of ideas for this story but your input is welcomed. Till next tI'me. Team Rizzles!
