A/N: you might wanna try letting the third song play in the background once you reach it, just a suggestion ;)
As always, thanks for all the love you people :).
Maura's closeness in the car was sending Jane's mind to all the wrong places. She turned on the radio looking for a distraction. A woman was singing:
Never know how much I love you
Never know how much I care
When you put your arms around me
I get a fever that's so hard to bear
You give me fever
When you kiss me
Fever when you hold me tight
Fever
In the morning
Fever all through the night
Neither of them spoke as the song kept on playing
Sun lights up the daytime
Moon lights up the night
I light up when you call my name
And you know I'm gonna treat you right
You give me fever
When you kiss me
Fever when you hold me tight
Fever
In the morning
Fever all through the night
Jane heard Maura's breathing becoming more shallow and she herself had trouble breathing normally.
˝This was a bad idea˝, Jane finally said.
¨What?¨
˝Riding together˝, Jane sighed. ˝I need to change the station or we won't get far˝ she said switching to another station. There was a catchy guitar beat and Jane started tapping her fingers following it. Then a woman started to sing.
I'm ridin' in your car, you turn on the radio
You're pullin' me close, I just say no
I say I don't like it, but you know I'm a liar
'Cause when we kiss, ooh, fire
Jane stopped following the rhythm, ˝Oh come on!˝
Late at night, you're takin' me home
You say you wanna stay, I say I wanna be alone
I say I don't love you, but you know I'm a liar
'Cause when we kiss, ooh, fire
Maura laughed out loud, ˝Looks like the universe is having fun with us.˝
˝I don't find it funny at all.˝ Jane said turning the radio off.
˝Well, I think of it as part of the foreplay, it will make later all the more rewarding˝, Maura said seductively.
˝You're not helping, Maura!˝
˝OK, I'll be helpful˝ Maura said as she took her phone.
˝You're not gonna play us another song, are you?˝ Jane asked warily.
Maura laughed, ˝No, I'm gonna get us a distraction and call Korsak.˝
Jane breathed a sigh of relief as she could hear the dialing tone over the speaker and then Korsak's voice answering.
Hey Korsak, any more details, are you there yet?˝, Jane asked.
˝Still not there, are you close?˝
˝Yeah, we should be there within some 10 minutes. What about Frost?˝
˝He's already there.˝
˝Don't tell me he called it in again!˝
˝As a matter of fact he did.˝
Jane made a pause.
˝He was there again, at this time?˝, she asked.
˝I know, I was surprised too, I guess we'll find out soon.˝
˝Yeah, see you there.˝
Maura hung up and looked at Jane. ˝You seem worried.˝
˝I don't know, it's just weird to have the same person call it in two times in a row. If he wasn't my partner I'd already consider him a suspect˝, Jane replied pensively.
˝His height rules him out of the first murder˝ Maura tried to calm Jane down.
˝Is that 100% sure? I mean that's how golfers move the club, from the ground upwards.˝
˝True, but, with Frost's height, the length of his arms and their reach, there's no way he could have caused those injuries to the victim.˝
˝What if the victim's body was under a different angle?˝
˝That would have been a very unnatural angle, he would have had to be leaning backwards a lot, that's not physically possible.˝
˝What if he was leaning to the side?˝ Jane continued.
Maura didn't reply.
˝Maura?˝ Jane asked with a bit of fear in her voice.
˝I guess that could be a possibility˝, Maura replied quietly, ˝But I'd have to do more tests and measurements, check the angle to be sure of that.˝
˝I'll talk to Frost when we get there, see if he has some kind of an alibi to give me a peace of mind.˝
˝It'll be fine Jane˝, Maura said putting her hand on Jane's knee. Jane placed her hand on top of Maura's and squeezed it, ˝I hope so˝.
When they got to the Golf Club, Jane took a deep breath and opened the door.
˝Jane!˝, Frost approached them.
˝Please tell me you have an alibi, Frost.˝
˝What? You don't think I had anything...˝
˝I'm just trying to cover your back, you called in on both murders, being on a golf course twice within, what... 12 hours, that's really quite out of your normal routine. We need to make sure this doesn't get out of control.˝
˝Oh man, you're right, I'm the obvious suspect.˝
˝Come on, explain to me why you were here and who with.˝
˝Where's the body detective Frost?˝ Maura asked.
˝Over there, near the pond˝ Frost pointed behind her back and Maura headed that way.
˝So what were you doing here at this time? It's almost 10 pm, isn't that a bit too late for playing golf?˝
˝There's a part of the course that's under lights, and it's actually very relaxing because there aren't so many people.˝
˝And since when do you know all that? Why have you started playing golf all of a sudden?˝
˝I met this woman recently, she plays it, and I really like her, so I was just trying to spend as much time with her as I could, she trains a lot so this was the only possibility.˝
˝Was she with you the whole time?˝, Jane continued.
˝Yes, and a couple of other people who were playing around us, I wasn't the one who found the body.˝
˝OK, that's good, we'll talk to other people and get that confirmed to have it all in writing.˝ Jane said putting her hand on Frost's shoulder and squeezing it. ˝That's good.˝ she repeated and smiled with relief. ˝Let's go over to Maura and Korsak.˝
Jane approached the crime scene in a much better mood, ˝Frost is out of the woods, he's got a good alibi, we'll make sure to ask all the witnesses to confirm his whereabouts.˝
˝That's great!˝ Maura exclaimed.
˝And he's also getting golf lessons from a certain female golfer, for free I guess, are they free Frost?", she teased.
Korsak laughed out loud, ˝Oh that explains it!˝
"Oh you two are acting like teenagers, I'm glad for you detective Frost" Maura said.
"Thank you Dr. Isles. See, why can't the two of you be nice like that?"
Jane and Korsak laughed with amusement.
˝So, any good news here?˝ Jane asked.
˝Well, it looks like it's the same weapon as with the first murder˝, Maura replied.
Jane suddenly grabbed Korsak's elbow, ˝Oh my God, Korsak, this is a historical moment! Dr. Isles is making an assumption without her lab, her scalpels and her measuring equipment. Aren't you going to examine the body more closely, Maura?˝, Jane teased.
˝Oh I definitely intend to do a full... body... examination...˝, Maura replied crossing her arms, accentuating her words and looking intensely at Jane making it obvious to her she wasn't talking about the dead body. Jane's smirk suddenly disappeared and she had to swallow hard.
˝And I am not making an assumption, I am an expert in my field and since the size and the shape of the wound are both consistent with the first one, claiming that it's the same weapon is not an assumption but an expert opinion. I merely thought I could save us all a long night at the station and get us all to bed sooner˝, Maura continued in a cold voice still looking at Jane allowing her eyes to go down Jane's body a bit but not making it too obvious. Jane's stomach tightened. ˝But since detective Rizzoli is suggesting I'm being unprofessional I'll do the autopsy tonight.˝
Korsak took a few steps back, he could swear he saw darts coming out of Dr. Isles' eyes, Uh-oh she's angry, he thought.
Maura turned around and started approaching Jane looking straight into her eyes. Jane stopped breathing, She's so hot right now, was all her mind could think about. Maura then squeezed her way in front of Jane making sure to lean against her body. ˝Do you mind stepping back detective Rizzoli?˝, she said with a cold but seductive determination in her voice turning her head to look at Jane, her butt pressed against Jane's crotch.
Her lips are so close, Jane thought, mesmerized. Me and my big mouth, she said in her head and stepped back.
Maura leaned forward perking her butt for Jane to see.
Crap! This is worse now when I'm actually aware of wanting her. Jane had to clench her fists to prevent her hands from reaching out.
Maura felt Jane's eyes on her body and continued to examine the body with a satisfied smile on her face which no one else could see.
Jane began to panic a bit so she started humming some undefined melody trying to distract herself.
Korsak looked at her, ˝Really, you are humming over a dead body?˝
˝What! There was a catchy song on the radio˝ Jane quickly said.
˝I don't remember hearing that song in the car,˝ Maura chimed in, ˝I'm sure it was more like...˝
˝Maura!˝ Jane interrupted her ˝Just examine the body, will you!?˝
˝Oh, don't worry Jane, not one... single... inch... will escape my examination.˝
Man, she's really relentless, Jane thought to herself and turned to Frost.
˝Frost, do you have enough info for that profile now?˝, she asked.
Maura chuckled but kept on with the examination without saying a word.
Oblivious to what was going on Frost started explaining ˝Actually yes, this woman mentioned seeing a very tall, white guy running away, short blond hair, could be him.˝
˝Good, let's go to the offices, see if they can find us someone matching that profile.˝
˝See you later, Jane.˝ Maura teased.
˝Yeah, yeah, later.˝ Jane replied, hurriedly turning around to follow Frost.
Maura was approaching the parking lot just as Jane and Frost were getting out of the office building.
˝Any luck?˝, Maura asked.
˝Nope, no one recognizes a person by that description, we have to go back to the station and go through those files˝, Jane replied.
˝OK, well I'm ready when you are, we can go back right now if you want. Detective Korsak has just left and said he would meet you at the station˝, Maura said lifting her hands to fix her hair, perking her breasts.
˝Actually I thought of going with Frost˝ Jane quickly said, her pulse starting to speed up again.
˝Oh, sorry Jane, I'm actually staying here...˝ he hesitated, ˝With Jessica... errr... that's her name... errr... that phone call while you were talking to that assistant was Lt. Cavanaugh, he doesn't want me anywhere near the case, he says I'm too much involved as a witness.˝
Jane sighed, ˝OK, Maura, let's go.˝
Once they were back in the car Maura asked ˝Jane, are you trying to avoid me again?˝
˝Well, you've been flaunting that sexy body of yours in front of me again, on purpose! Of course I'm trying to avoid you, it's not easy to have THESE…˝, she said pointing her hand at Maura's left and then her right breast. ˝…at arms reach all the time you know.˝
Maura laughed heartily, ˝Well I did have a plan to speed things up and have you play with THESE… sooner˝, she said making the same motion with her hands, ˝…but you ruined it.˝
˝Argghhhh, let's just go!˝, Jane said starting the car.
There was a tense silence in the car so Maura decided to try again with the radio.
A song began playing, at the beginning there were some drums and then a melody started accompanying them, and Jane could swear she could also hear a female voice moaning in the background. Then the woman started singing in a sultry, breathy voice.
I wanna kiss you in Paris
I wanna hold your hand in Rome
I wanna run naked in a rainstorm
Make love in a train cross-country
You put this in me
So now what, so now what?
Wanting, needing, waiting
For you to justify my love
Hoping, praying
For you to justify my love
Jane's mouth dropped open, she was speechless. When the woman started breathing even more explicitly, Jane managed to utter, ˝You have got to be kidding me!˝
I want to know you
Not like that
Maura didn't say a word but when Jane reached out to turn it off she stopped her with her hand. ˝Leave it, I want to listen to it˝, she said, with a noticeable arousal in her voice.
I don't wanna be your mother
I don't wanna be your sister either
˝Are you insane!˝ Jane cried as the song continued in the background:
I just wanna be your lover
I wanna be your baby
Kiss me, that's right, kiss me
˝She's practically... she's practically...˝, Jane didn't have trouble finding the words, she found it difficult to control her own reaction to the song, ˝...having sex!˝ she finally breathed out.
Wanting, needing, waiting
For you to justify my love
Yearning, burning
For you to justify my love
˝Uh-huh˝, Maura simply said distantly.
˝Maura! Are your eyes closed?!˝
˝Shhhh, Jane, I'm listening to the song.˝
˝Just great, and what am I supposed to do!?˝
˝Watch the road Jane˝, Maura said calmly.
˝Watch the road!˝ Jane repeated her words annoyed. ˝Watch the road... You'll be the death of me woman!˝
What are you gonna do?
What are you gonna do?
Talk to me - tell me your dreams
Am I in them?
Tell me your fears
Are you scared?
Tell me your stories
I'm not afraid of who you are
We can fly!
Poor is the man
Whose pleasures depend
On the permission of another
Love me, that's right, love me
I wanna be your baby
Jane was finding it almost impossible to concentrate on the driving, all she wanted to do was touch Maura, she could feel the warmth radiating from her body, she could hear her shallow breathing. What she couldn't see were Maura's hands gripping the seat next to her legs, trying to prevent herself from reaching over to Jane.
God, I hope this song finishes soon, or I'm gonna drive us off the road! Jane was now starting to pray for it to finish already.
Wanting, needing, waiting
For you to justify my love
I'm open and ready
For you to justify my love
To justify my love
Wanting, to justify
Waiting, to justify my love
Praying, to justify
To justify my love
I'm open, to justify my love
When the song finished, Maura reached out and turned the radio off, another song with the sex theme and she definitely would not be able to hold back.
Neither of them said a word, they spent the rest of the ride in silence, Jane found it wiser to pretend Maura wasn't there next to her and Maura thought that if she heard Jane's voice she would probably just attack her lips so she kept silent as well.
When they reached the station Jane exclaimed, ˝Oh thank God!˝ and quickly jumped out of the car. Maura remained seated for a few more seconds trying to compose herself, she took a deep long breath, ˝Well, that's a ride I'm not gonna forget any time soon˝, she said and slowly opened the door. When she entered the station, Jane was nowhere to be found, she sighed and headed towards the morgue.
Jane was leaning over a sink in the restroom, drops of water on her face, she put her palms under the running water again and splashed some more of it on her face. She lifted her eyes and stared at the mirror. How is that possible, how can she turn me on that much?, she thought. She took a long breath, dried her face, turned around and walked out slowly.
¨Korsak, have you started going through the files?˝ Jane asked.
˝Yeah, Frost called me, gave me the description, I think I have something.˝
˝Show me.˝
˝He's 6'10˝, has short, blond hair, owner of a pharmaceutical company.˝
˝Do you have the address?˝
˝Yeah, wanna go talk to him, we have to wait for the results of the autopsy anyway?˝
˝Yeah, let's go˝. Great, I'll have something to keep my mind occupied, Jane thought.
Jane and Korsak were standing in front of the door, Jane kept on knocking, there was no answer.
˝You wanna wait in the car?˝, Korsak asked.
˝Nah, let's just go back, we can't enter without a warrant and he probably won't let us in, who knows if he'll show up at all. We'll set up a surveillance at the Golf Club. If he tries anything again, it won't be easy with dozens of officers roaming around. We can come back tomorrow with a warrant.˝
As they arrived back to the station Jane's phone sounded the familiar Piano Sonata No. 2 by Frédéric Chopin.
¨Yes, Maura.˝
˝I'm done with the autopsy if you and detective Korsak wanna come down to the morgue.˝
˝OK, be right there.˝
˝Autopsy's done?˝, Korsak asked.
˝Yeah, let's go˝, Jane answered.
When they entered Maura was leaning over the body, her hair was tied but there was a loose strand touching her cheek. Jane imagined what it would be like to move it back behind Maura's ear with her fingers.
˝I have confirmed that the weapon is the same, same angle as well. And you'll be glad to hear that there is no way Frost could have inflicted them, the angle of impact confirms that the victim was standing in the upright position when he was hit with the golf club, the same goes for our first victim.˝
Jane kept on looking at Maura's lips as she was talking, all she could think about was kissing them, feeling Maura's breath on her skin, the warmth of her body close to her.
˝I gotta go˝ she suddenly said, turned around and quickly left.
˝I thought you two made up.˝ Korsak asked looking at Maura confused.
˝Me too˝, Maura replied. She's running away again, she thought and her heart sank.
Korsak stayed a few more minutes, writing notes ˝I guess we are done for tonight, we should all go and get some rest, see you tomorrow Dr. Isles.˝
˝Goodnight detective.˝ Maura replied before her phone buzzed. There was a text message from Jane. I'm not running away from you I just can't be in the same room with you right now when all I want to do is pin you to the wall and rip your clothes off.
Maura smiled, took care of the things in the morgue and after some 20 minutes went up to find Jane.
˝Ready to go?˝ Maura asked leaning against the door frame. Jane was sitting at her desk, she lifted her head and leaned back in her chair keeping her gaze on Maura.
˝What?˝ Maura asked.
˝You look so hot right now in that pose.˝ Jane said slowly.
Maura was taken aback a bit, She seems more in control now and it's so hot, she thought to herself. ˝Can we just go to a more private surrounding?˝ she breathed out.
Jane stood up, grabbed her jacket and turned off the light. ˝Sure, let's go.˝ she smiled, looked around as she was approaching Maura to check if they were alone, and then put her hand on Maura's waist, leaned in and kissed her, letting her lips linger on Maura's a bit before continuing to the elevator. Maura just stood there, reveling in the touch and the sense of Jane's lips on hers.
Jane pushed the elevator button and turned around ˝Are you coming Dr. Isles?˝
Maura turned her head, ˝Hmmm?˝
˝More private surrounding, remember?˝, Jane smirked.
˝Right.˝ Maura pushed herself off the door frame as the elevator door opened and walked inside.
˝So, are you tired?˝ Jane asked as the door closed.
˝Not in the least˝, Maura replied attacking Jane's lips and pushing her to the wall. She pulled Jane's shirt out of her trousers and moved her hand beneath playing with Jane's skin, first on her stomach and then on her back. Then she moved it lower down her back and inside her pants, squeezing her butt and pulling her closer.
Jane got completely lost.
˝Your place or mine?˝, Maura asked.
˝...Yours...˝, Jane replied in between kisses.
˝OK..." Maura said as she started nibbling on Jane's neck but then she suddenly stopped.
Wait... we can't... your mom is at my place.˝ she said and moved away a bit.
˝Already took care of that, called her earlier and asked her to go to my place and take care of Jo Friday for me.˝
˝Smart˝ Maura smiled and kissed Jane again, deepening it, letting her tongue explore more, making Jane moan as she started to move her hands towards Jane's breasts.
˝Maura..., you'll need to... keep your hands... off of me... if you want... us... to get... to your place.˝ Jane panted.
˝Are you saying I'm impossible to resist?˝
˝Exactly.˝ Jane whispered.
Maura laughed out loud as the elevator came to a stop and moved away. She turned around grabbing Jane's hand and said, ˝Let's go detective Rizzoli˝ pulling her out of the elevator.
