Looking down at her feet, Maura shifts her weight from her right foot to her left, "Jane…" Trying to break her hold from her friends grip but in responds to her movement the hand tightened. "Just drop it" looking back up into her friends' eyes and in a whisper she asks, "Please?"

Jane couldn't stand seeing Maura act this way. She wanted to know what was bothering the blonde but at the same time, she saw how much it was hurting her. Jane sighed and dropped Maura's arm. "I haven't found anything here and we've looked through everything." Looking around the store, "Why don't we try one of your places? I'll let you pay"

"Really?" Maura questioned looking up at Jane with hopeful eyes.

"Yes really." Jane softly smiled at her friend, "Let's go!"

"Okay!" Smiling at Jane, "I think we should go to the mall. There is more options at the mall."

"My head is already hurting… let's go"

Clapping her hands in joy Maura quickly leans forward pressing her lips against Jane's cheek. "This is going to be so much fun!" she says quickly walking ahead still clapping her hands, acting like what she did was completely normal.

Jane stood there stunned for a second. She lifted her hand to her cheek and smiled. After a second, she shook her head and walked out of the store to the car with Maura.

"So which store do you want to start with" Maura asked as the two of them enter through the double doors.

"I have no idea what these stores even are. I'm kinda just going to trust you on this trip."

"You have never been to a mall?" Maura asked with a raised eyebrow.

"Not really, everything I've needed is at Walmart or Target"

"So this is your first time?"

Jane thought for a second. "I think when I was little, Ma took Frankie, Tommy and I, to take pictures with the Easter Bunny and Santa. Other than that I haven't stopped at a mall before"

"Well. Then I'm glad I was with you for your first time" Maura looked over at Jane, "To the mall I mean" Blushing a little before breaking her eye contact "I think we should start at Macy's!" Taking Jane's hand she pulls her towards the entrance to the store, "It's where I get 67% of my clothes"

"Where do you get the other 33%?" Jane asked with a chuckle.

"I go to Nordstrom's, JC Pennies, or any other clothing store" Maura said as they enter the store.

"Is it bad that I have never heard of any of these stores?"

"It is not bad per say" Maura said walking towards a shirt rack. "Most people would find it a little odd that you don't know the stores" Pulling a shirt out, holding it up in front of Jane, "But I love you just the same" Looking over the hanger of the shirt to look at Jane.

"You love me?"

"Well…" Placing the shirt back on the rack, Maura replies without making eye contact. Shrugging her shoulders like it is no big deal.

"Well what? What's up with you lately hmmm? Jane asks giving Maura a small smile.

"Nothing is 'up' with me as you put it" Grabbing another shirt and holding it to show Jane. "What do you think of this shirt?"

"It's cute, I guess" Jane said shrugging her shoulders, not wanting to let the subject drop but knowing Maura wasn't going to talk about it anymore.

"Why don't you go try it on?" Maura asked passing the shirt to Jane.

"Thanks for all the clothes Maura." Jane says as she sets down the pile of bags she was carrying on the couch.

"Any time" Maura said as she walks into her kitchen, taking a water bottle out of the fridge before walking back out to her living room.

"Really though. You didn't have to do that for me."

"I would do anything for you Jane" taking a sip of the water in her hand before extending her hand offering the water to Jane silently asking if she wanted a drink.

"Thanks" Jane paused, "For both" she added taking the water.

"Mhm"

Looking around for a place to sit and quickly figuring out that there wasn't a place, Maura moves one of the bags that Jane placed on her couch and places it on the floor by her feet.

"You okay Maur?"

"Yeah, why would I not be?"

"You just seem a little… I don't know… skittish lately."

"Really?" looking at Jane with a confused look. "I did not know that I was acting skittish. I'm sorry"

"Okay so maybe skittish isn't the right word."

"Then what would be a good word?"

"Ummmm…."

"Ummm? What Jane?"

"Ummm. Nervous is the right word. I'm nervous"

"Why are you nervous?"

"Oh cause this girl almost called me hot yesterday." Jane said giving Maura a pointed look.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Maura asked as she shifted in her seat.

"You know, I can't remember who the girl was." Jane said as she placed the water bottle on the table, before scratching her forehead as she walked over to Maura, "I believe her name started with an M."

"Oh really?" Maura said with a flirtatious smile. "I'm sure if that girl was here, she would try to deny trying to call you hot." Rethinking the words she said, she continues, "You know so things wouldn't get awkward between the two of you."

"Thing is though, I don't think things would be awkward for the two of us." Jane paused, "Between me and that girl, I mean."

"Oh? Why wouldn't it be awkward?"

"I have been friends with her for a while now." Standing in front of Maura, "I mean, we are practically a couple. She's uh, bought me new clothes and everything."

Moving her head so she was looking directly into Jane eyes. "So…uh… do you like this girl?" Swallowing the lump in her throat, "I mean… more than a friend"

"I think I just might" Jane placed her hands on Maura's knee and slowly leans into Maura's face.

Moving her hands to her knees to sit on top of Janes. Lacing their fingers together. "Jane…" Looking away from the woman's eyes in front of her to the lips that were mere inches away from her own, "I…"

"Yes Maur?"

"I'm…" Not usually one to stutter on her words, Maura closes her eyes and shakes her head, trying to clear the fear that she felt. Opening her eyes to look at Jane's smiling face before continuing her sentence, "I'm in love with you"

Jane smirked, "Hey Maur? Guess what?"

Looking at Jane with confusion, Maura asks, "What Jane?"

A blush spreads across Jane's cheeks as she says "I'm in love with you too."

Quickly Maura's confused face turned into a smile, "Really?" looking as Jane with hopeful eyes.

"Really" Jane chuckled as she leaned forward and pressed Maura's smiling mouth to her own.

Maura instantly responded to Jane's kiss. Running her tongue along Jane's bottom lip, asking for entrance. Jane moaned as she opened her mouth and she felt Maura's tongue run against her own. Squeezing Jane's hands as the kissed deepened, Maura found herself getting lost in the kiss for a few second. Suddenly Maura's eyes went wide and she pulled back from the kiss.

"What's wring Maur?" Jane asked breathlessly and confused.

"You're not gay" Maura said bluntly.

"How do you know I'm not?"

"Cause you date men"

"So do you." Jane said pulling back slightly, "What's your point?"

Signing, Maura runs her thumb on top of Jane's hand, "Have you ever dated a woman Jane?"

"No" she paused. "But I've been in love with one since I met her."

Maura's face softens, "How do you know that you're in love with me?"

"Little things you do make me fall, have made me fall…"

"I'm sorry" Maura said squeezing Jane's hands again. "It's just… I love you and I don't want to start this…" Removing her hands from Jane's and points from Jane to herself, "Whatever this is without knowing without a doubt that you won't regret starting it"

"Maura" Jane looked into the eyes of the woman in front of her, "I would never ever regret being with you"

"Are you sure?" Maura asks as she looks down at her lap and whispers, "Because it has happened before"

"Maura" Jane said touching the side of Maura's face gently. Maura slowly looks up at Jane's face. "I'm not going to regret it. I love you too much for that"

Maura softens and gives Jane a small smile as she places her hand over Jane's nodding, "Okay. Okay. As long as you are a 100% sure"

"I've never been surer of anything in my life"

Instead of answering, Maura places both her hands on Jane's face. Leaning forward she softly places a kiss onto the lips in front of her. Pulling away from the kiss, Maura places her forehead on Janes. "Jane?"

"Yes Maura?" smiling at the woman in front of her.

"Will you go on a date with me?"

"No." Jane said softly.

"Okay I was thinking we could go down to th-" Maura pulled back from Jane, "Did you say no?"
