Chapter 13

Frost burst through the apartment door, his gun raised and aimed on anyone who moved. Korsak followed his gun slightly lower. His experience taught him to be more cautious than the younger detective.

"BOSTON PD!" Frost shouted as he headed steadily towards the living area. His gun sweeping the room. It focused on the blonde woman who was face down and unconscious.

"Jane. You alright?" He said glancing at Jane who was lying on her side by the open window.

"Yeah Frost, just peachy" She rolled her eyes.

Maura stepped away from Jane to the other side of the window; her eyes still wide. Her head was still getting around what had just happened. Korsak walked slowly from the bedroom. His eyes digesting everything he saw in the apartment.

"She's alive…" Jane nodded at Marie.

Korsak reached behind him and brought his handcuffs out slapping them immediately on Marie. Frost put his gun back in the holster and helped Korsak lift the blonde woman off the floor. She stood wearily. Her eyes trying to focus on her surroundings.

Korsak coughed "Marie Jamissen you are under the arrest for the murders of ….." His voice trailed off as he pushed Marie away and out the apartment.

Frost turned and helped Jane to sit. He looked at the concrete block and chain around her legs. He pulled out her gun..

"Woahhhhh there cowboy..what you going to do?" Jane's voice hitched slightly.

"No keys, I'm going to shoot the lock…" Frost shrugged.

"Oh Mary Mother of God!" Jane rolled her eyes. "okay..but if you miss I will…"

"Jane I got your back…anyway I'm a better shot than you…" he scoffed.

Jane rolled her eyes and leant back, she instantly squinted as she waited for the shot to be fired.

Maura jumped a little as the sound of the gun reverberated around the apartment. Frost bought the gun up to his lips and blew the top of the barrel before pretending to tip his hat.

"There you go mam…." Frost said in a fake southern twang. "I'll give you two a moment before I send the Crime Scene Team in." He nodded to Jane and Maura before walking silently out the apartment.

Jane unravelled the chain and stood, brushing herself off. She glanced over her shoulder to the open window before moving away from it. Maura stood by the couch. She looked around at the scene in front of them. It was just her and Jane alone in the apartment.

Jane lifted her brown eyes and pushed back a few strands of hair that covered her face. She felt the lump on the back of her head and rubbed it slowly. Her eyes found Maura who was wringing her hands nervously. She walked the few steps to Maura and held out her arms. Maura's shoulders dipped and her head hung low as she enveloped herself into Jane's embrace. The tears started to flow from Maura. She tried to sniff them back but it was no use.

"shhhhh it's okay. It's all over.." Jane's voice was low and steady. She stroked Maura's back continuously.

The three detectives and the Chief M E sat silently in the bullpen. Jane leaning back in her chair as she listened to Frost recount how they figured out who the murderer was.

"But really it was Dr Isles who figured it out" Frost said as he brought the cup of coffee to his lips. Jane looked over at Maura who was sitting at an empty desk. She lifted her eye brows and smiled gently.

"You'd make a good detective.." Korsak winked.

Maura raised her eyebrows "Oh no Detective. I'll leave that side of the job to you three. I'd rather find the truth from the evidence I see in my morgue.." she chuckled slightly.

Jane brought herself forward, she stretched out her legs and sighed "Well I don't know about you three but I could really do with a shower.." She stood and gathered her jacket, gun and keys. Frost and Korsak nodded with agreement and started to tidy their desks. Maura sighed to herself and picked up her handbag and jacket; slipping it on. She said goodnight to the three detectives and made her way to the lift. She pushed the button and instantly got in when the doors opened.

Frost and Korsak watched Jane. Her eyes had trailed Maura as she left the bullpen. She lowered her head as she watched Maura disappear into the lift. Frost and Korsak walked to Jane who was sighing deeply.

"Rizzoli.." Korsak said as he placed his hand on her shoulder. Jane looked up and over to her partners.

"You are completely clueless aren't you.." Frost smiled

Jane didn't quite understand, she looked to both the men and tilted her head "huh?"

"Jane…do yourself a favour and go after her…" Korsak said with a sense of wisdom in his voice.

Jane shook her head. "No…I can't…"

"Oh for Pete's sake Jane. She's in love with you.. You two belong together…this is your chance. Take it and run with it…" Frost assertively said, he gestured for Jane to run after Maura "Go!"

Jane looked at Frost who nodded again. Her attention gazed upon Korsak.

"Jane Go…"

Jane smiled slyly, her hands found both detectives shoulders, she gave them a quick squeeze before setting off out the bullpen to the lift. Pushing the lift button repeatedly she looked up at the screen about the lift. She groaned to herself before pushing the button one more time just in case the seven times before didn't work. She threw her arms up and growled. She noticed the stairwell to her left. She set off through the door leaving it swinging in her wake. She was gone.

Frost and Korsak shook their head in dismay of what they had just witnessed.

"Robber?…" Korsak said as he turned to Frost who nodded in agreement.

Jane had taken the steps two at a time all the way down to the main level of the precinct. She swung the door hastily and looked to the main entrance. She sighed to herself before running out the door.

"Shit!" Jane said to herself as she twirled around and proceeded to sit on the stair. She shook her head and looked aimlessly to the street. She didn't notice the honey blonde standing on the opposite side of the street in the shadows . Maura watched Jane intently. Jane was wiping tears from her eyes and wiping her nose with the back of her hand. Her head hung low again. Maura crossed the street and stood at the foot of the stairs her eyes continuously focus on Jane.

Jane had heard the familiar clicking on the concrete, she lifted her head and her eyes found Maura standing crossed armed a few feet in front of her. Jane stood slowly and for an instant Maura saw Jane's vulnerability. She continued to study Jane as they stood facing each other.

"I figured if I waited you might have followed me…" Maura smiled slightly.

Jane's face hardened a little before she sighed "Maura…I love you …I've always loved you.." Jane's voice barely audible over the distant noise of traffic.

Maura looked away from Jane; tears welled in her eyes "And I have been in love with you for a long time Jane, but it's too late...I can't commit myself to you...every advance I ever made has been thrown back in my face" she paused "do you know how that feels?"

"I'm finding that out now…" Jane's voice trailed off.

Maura didn't say anything; she was trying to gauge Jane's temperament. Jane's eyes lowered, they concentrated on the concrete stairs.

"Alex and I are exploring this relationship and I've planned to take some time away from Boston and live in London..i think it will be good for you and I to have some distance."

Jane's eyes shot up and looked deeply into Maura's "even after all what has just happened… Maura I know you felt it in the apartment. There's something there. We have something." Jane motioned her hand between her and Maura.

"Jane you've hurt me badly. And yes I did feel it; but we were caught in the moment. You saved my life and I will always be grateful. But I can't risk waiting for you..." Maura said, immediately she felt bad for how it sounded.

Jane sighed, she looked away from Maura "when are you leaving for London?"

"Next week, Alex is leaving on Thursday and I will follow a couple of days later..." Maura said softly.

Jane pursed her lips "well I wish you good luck Maura, I hope you find and get what you're looking for" Jane turned and walked back up the stairs to the building; she entered the building and disappeared out of sight.
