A.N: Thanks everybody for the reviews. Love you, all. In this chapter we will meet the prick...Maura's boyfriend. Have fun...
Maura POV
Jane Rizzoli. Why can't I get her out of my head? I just have to forget about her. We didn't even have a real conversation. Why did I tell her that I had a boyfriend? What if she wasn't going to ask me out? All these questions are giving me a headache. It doesn't matter, I have to study for a test.
I go down stairs into the kitchen and grab an apple for a snack. I step into the living room and pick up my World History book off the coffee table. Sitting down on the leather couch, I open my book. I didn't even start reading, when there is a knock at my door. I sigh, "Really, can't someone study in peace?"
I walk over to the door and open it. Coming face to face with my boyfriend, Garrett Fairfield. Before I can even say anything, he pushes past me. I shut the door, very confused. "Hi Garrett. What's wrong?"
He glares at me, "Don't act all innocent. Your mother is going to be very disappointed."
I shake my head in disbelief. Why is he all mad? "Garrett what are you talking about? Why is Mother going to be mad."
Garrett scoffs, "Like you don't know. Remember yesterday?" I shake my head, "No, you don't? Well, let me ask you this. Where were you from twelve o'clock to one-thirty, yesterday?"
I think back to yesterday at twelve. Then it occurs to me. I was at the skate park with Jen. How does Garrett know that and why is he mad? I look up at him, his face is red. "I was at the skate park. How did you know?"
Garrett gives an evil chuckle, "The skate park is a very filthy place. I'd never step foot in it." He smiled, "I don't like the fact that you were kissing some disgusting dyke. You're my girlfriend. Nothing is going to change that." He walks toward the door, but turns around. "I do have friends, one friend that loves to skate every day. One named, Joey Grant. See you tomorrow at dinner, love." Then he was gone.
Then everything turned into a blur. I started to cry. I forgot everything . I needed to see Jane. To talk, maybe she can help. I run up stairs and lay on my bed. Crying in to my pillow, I wonder if things can ever get better. But things just seem to get worse.
I must have fallen asleep in the middle of crying because I woke up and it was night time. I stand up out of bed and walk over to my desk. Sitting down I look at my science book. It reminds me of Jane. Joey interrupted my reading, then Jane came over.
I need to see her. I can't though. I don't know anything about her, except that she's a skateboarder, named Jane Rizzoli. Also that she is beautiful. Mother would be very upset if I saw her. But there would be no way of her finding out, unless Garrett tells her.
I think for a moment. Maybe she is at the skate park. I look over at the digital clock, nine o'clock. Great, it's not possible for Jane to be in that dangerous neighborhood, at night. Well….it's worth a shot. I reach over and grab my cell phone, I call my driver.
He got here very quick and as soon as I'm in the car, I tell him where to go. He furrows his eyebrows, "Ms. Isles, I don't think your mother would be happy with either of us if I drive you there."
"Please, Tom. I really need to meet someone. Don't worry Mother will not find out," I plead. I really need to get to the skate park.
He gives a understanding smile, "Okay, but call me when I need to pick you up, ."
" I will."
Then he starts to drive. It didn't take long for him to come to a stop in front of the skate park. A lot of people were here. Bright lights were all over the place. I look at Tom, "Thanks Tom. I'll call you later."
"Goodbye, ."
I smile at him, "Call me Maura."
He nods and I jump out. Looking around, I can see people were starting to stare at me. Of course they were, I didn't belong here. I was in designer jeans with a bright pink top. Everybody else was in torn jeans and everything black, like they were trying to blend into the night.
I open the gate, trying to find Jane, but I couldn't see her. I walk over to two boys smoking, they looked at me as if I was crazy. "Do you guys nowhere Jane Rizzoli is?"
They look at each other. Waiting for a reply, finally one of them says, "Over by the water fountain." I respond with a quick 'thank you'.
I run over to the water fountain. Making a bigger audience than before. I see Jane bent over the fountain, slurping water. I think of what I should say to her. But before I could even think Jane turns around and looks surprised to see me.
Jane's eyes are big and her mouth was wide open, trying to register everything.
I don't know what to say, figuring out I didn't need to say anything cause, next thing I know Jane is dragging me behind the wall. Out of sight from everybody else.
"What are you doing here?" She whispered.
"Well…I…uh," Completely flustered.
Jane's confusion just worsens, "Maura, can you please tell me what made you think to come down here, at night? It's really dangerous here. I don't need a pretty face like yours to be rearranged."
I blush. She thinks I'm pretty. I look down trying to hide my ruby, red cheeks.
"Come on, I'm taking you home." She grabs my arm and starts pulling me toward the parking lot.
I resist and say, "No!" She looks at me, "I mean, I wanted to come see you. I had a bad day and I really wanted to talk to someone. You were very sweet yesterday, also it involves you."
"I'm the reason you had a bad day? What did I do?"
I shake my head, "No. It was my fault. I had no idea Joey Grant was friends with my boyfriend."
"What does that have to do with me?" Jane asks.
I look down and dropped my voice, "I kissed you on the cheek and Joey saw. He told my boyfriend. Then today, I was studying and all of the sudden Garrett was there. He said 'I don't like the fact that you were kissing some disgusting dyke.' I got so mad, but he already left and-."
I was interrupted by Jane pulling me into a warm embrace. She calms me down, lets go of me, then starts to speak, "Maura, listen your boyfriend is a complete asshole, he doesn't-."
"Language, Jane," I whisper. She chuckles, smiling widely. "He isn't that bad. Garrett just doesn't like the fact that, a girl would be able to replace him. Bigotry runs in his family. He was raised that way."
Jane seems angry now. Her hands go to her hips, "I can't believe your defending this jerk, after he made you cry. I'm a little mad that you think it's not his fault. Yea, he probably was raised to treat people like me as if we're doormats. That doesn't give him the right to act like he's your master. You get to do what you want, alright?"
I smile real big, "Nobody has ever said that to me."
Jane smiles, too, "Well, it's about damn time somebody start," She looks around, without looking at me she says, "Do you want me to walk you home, or do you want to call your driver?"
I really don't want to be walking around at night, but I really want to be around the Italian for as long as I can. "We can walk."
"Perfect, lets get going."
A.N/2: Thanks again.
Love, MHbuttaz4ever...
