It was a rainy Boston night as Jane sat on her girlfriend's couch watching the game highlights from the weekend. Maura was stretched out along the length of the comfy piece of furniture with her feet in Jane's lap. She was blocking out the TV as well as Jane's cheer and jeers as she focused on the forensic journal she was reading.
Jane let out a sigh as a commercial break came on. She muted the TV and looked over at Maura, her face hidden by the journal. "Hey." She said as she lifted Maura's leg from her lap and pressed a kiss to her ankle.
Maura, who was very absorbed in her reading, gave her the very eloquent response of, "Hmm?"
Jane smirked at her, "I love you."
This got Maura's attention. She lowered her journal to look at the dark haired women, "You do, do you?" She asked with a smile.
The detective climbed onto the couch and straddled the smaller woman's hips. She took the journal out of her hands and tossed it onto the coffee table. "Yes, I do. Very much."
"Well, that is very convenient Detective." Maura said as she slipped her hands up Jane's thighs and settled them on her hips.
"It is?" Jane asked coyly as she leaned closer. Her dark locks fell forward into both of their faces but Maura tucked them back behind her ears with her delicate fingers.
"Yes, because it just so happens that I love you as well. Very much."
Jane nuzzled her nose against Maura's as she inquired again, "Really?"
Maura smiled as she closed the distance between their lips, "Always."
Short and sweet...at least I hope you think so! Let me know! :)
