A/N: Hi readers! Sorry for update delays. Had some hectic work schedule issues…and have since then been laid up with some serious health issues, accompanied by serious pain management issues. So I'm currently house bound, limping between the bed and sofa and trialling heaps of different painkillers! I'm battling my muse, moods and sleep levels to get anything done.

This story still isn't beta'd. All mistakes are purely my own!

Please feel free to give your feedback, good or bad. I can handle it :)

DISCLAIMER: I don't own any thing...I'm just borrowing for a while, and promise to return everything unharmed when I'm done!

TRIGGER WARNING: possible trigger, descriptions of violence and harm to women.

Jane breezed into the bullpen and threw her blazer across the back of her chair, and flopped down rather ungracefully into the chair. She growled in frustration at herself and unceremoniously face planted into her desk.

What the hell is wrong with you, Rizzoli? Losing your shit every time Maur flashes a grin at you? Get your head out of your ass and back in the game. You're Jane Rizzoli, the badass Boston Homicide Detective…not some love sick schoolgirl!

Jane jumped as her phone vibrated, signalling an incoming text message. She took the phone off her belt and checked it. Maura was ready to begin autopsy and was waiting for Jane. Jane stood and replaced her phone back on her belt. She briefly wondered how long she'd been sitting at her desk if Maura was ready to begin the autopsy already, had she zoned out? With a sigh and scowl at herself for getting so side tracked, she headed for the elevators.

Maura was waiting for Jane in the morgue. The body was laid out, her tools were ready, and she'd changed into her scrubs. She took a moment to replay her conversation with Jane at the crime scene in her head, trying to work out why Jane had gotten so flustered and left suddenly. She was so absorbed in her thoughts that she failed to notice Jane had entered the morgue.

Jane stood just inside the doorway, and took a few opportune moments to look Maura over. As much as Jane loved seeing Maura all dressed up in high fashion, and how amazing she looked, she appreciated the simple natural beauty of Maura just in her scrubs. Jane coughed to announce her presence in the room. Maura turned to the door, startled.

"Jane, I didn't hear you come in. Are you ready to observe the autopsy?" Jane smiled and nodded.

"Sure, Maur. Let's do this…breakfast afterwards?" Maura gave Jane a warm smile.

"Sounds wonderful, Jane." Maura reached to turn on the audio recorder and began her autopsy, looking forward to some time with the Detective in front of her very soon.

Jane was back in the bullpen after the autopsy, waiting for Maura to clean up and type her report, and then they could head off for breakfast. The autopsy hadn't really been revelatory with new information. Same type of injuries, probably inflicted by the same type of tools and weapons. A hair not belonging to the victim was found, which Maura promptly had sent off for DNA testing. She was going over notes from the last victims when Frost and Korsak entered, each with a coffee in hand.

"Hey Jane, if we'd have known you were up here, we'd have got you a coffee," Korsak started by way of apology.

"It's ok, I'm so tired that even a triple short espresso at this point wouldn't keep me going. So what's news?"

"We canvassed the area," started Frost. "No witnesses saw what happened, but we had an old lady in an apartment across the street remembers seeing the victim arguing with a couple earlier in the evening at the front of the gas station." Jane looked at both Frost and Korsak, intruigued.

"Did you get a description of this couple?"

"Male and female, somewhere between 20s and 40s. Average height and weight. He was brunette; she was blonde…about it really. She was so vague as to be practically useless." Korsak winced at the misfortune. Jane sighed and slowly stood.

"Once again, nothing. When are we gonna catch a break on this? I'm going down to the café to get a coffee." She stretched as she stood, and then took her blazer off the back of her chair. "I'm probably going to head out for a bit after this, Maura and I are catching up for breakfast. You want something when I return?"

"Donuts please," Korsak shot Jane a slight smile. "I know, I know, but I could really use one today."

"Ok, sure…Frost?"

"…uh yeah, Donuts…fine…" Frost was tapping away at his keyboard, totally concentrating on his current task.

"Ok, see you later guys." As Jane headed towards the elevator, she pulled out her phone and sent a quick text to Maura to meet in the BPD café.
