Maura was halfway through the autopsy when those familiar footsteps brought a beaming smile to her face. She did her utmost to stop the smirk from spreading across her face and continue with the autopsy but she was so happy she couldn't help herself.
Jane opened the door into the morgue and matched the ME's grin tooth for tooth. Even though Maura didn't look up they both knew that Maura was well aware of her presence. For once Jane was so happy and confident that no niggling thoughts crept into her mind. She knew why they were both so happy.
Maura could see the her smile reflected on the detective's face without looking up. She knew her so well that she could tell her mood without relying on facial muscles or inflections in her voice. Although she wanted to see her brunette she kept her focus on the body beneath her, although she couldn't quite remember what she was supposed to be doing.
When Maura didn't look up Jane tapped her foot impatiently. She saw the grin widen even further and she shook her head when the ME still didn't meet her gaze. Seems my stubbornness has rubbed off on someone! She walked around the other side of the table and nudged the medical examiner with her hip.
Maura swallowed the giggle that had bubbled up. She pressed her lips together and did her best to sullen her expression as she finally met the chocolate gaze.
Jane raised her eyebrow as the medical examiner looked at her solemnly. "Maur?"
Maura didn't say a word and simply returned her gaze back to the body.
Jane chewed her lip and scowled at the ME. Oh you want to wind me up? Two can play that game Doctor. "So COD?"
Maura looked at her sharply "Pardon?"
Jane bit the inside of her cheek to stop herself from smiling "What is the cause of death?"
Maura looked down at the gun shot wounds and back to the brunette. She opened her mouth to reply when she saw the mischief twinkling in those chocolate eyes. "The victim appears to have suffered from a ballistic trauma or GSW. This of course refers to a form of physical trauma sustained from the discharge of arms or munitions. In a lot of cases it can cause long term negative consequences however in this case it proved to be fatal." She smirked as the detective's grin began to fade slightly. "The degree of tissue disruption caused by the projectile is related to the size of the temporary versus permanent cavity it creates as it passes through tissue, in this case it appears to be consistent with the shell casings at the scene. Ballistics have confirmed that the weapon found at the scene is the murder weapon."
Jane scowled at Maura as she rattled off her facts, knowing full well she was trying to rile her up. "Thank god you're here Doctor! I wouldn't have been able to piece this together, what with the bullet wounds, the gun at the scene, the witnesses, and of course the confession from the husband. Dunno how I could have solved this without you! That would have been real tough!"
"Really." Maura tore off her gloves and turned to face Jane trying her best not to smile.
Jane could feel a laugh churning in her stomach but she held it back. "Really!" She poked the ME playfully in the shoulder.
Maura grabbed the detective's finger and toyed with it. "So rumour has it you have a girl?"
Jane smirked and stepped in closer "Really? Where did you hear that?"
Maura lightly began to bend Jane's finger back and smiled "I heard some of the boys talking about it. Apparently she's hot?"
Jane stepped in again and hummed pensively "Hot? Well..." She dragged out the last word and chuckled as Maura twisted her finger as far as she could without hurting her.
"Well?"
Jane stroked some of the ME's beautiful hair behind her ear and leant in as close as she could "Smoking hot."
Maura giggled at the husky tone of the detective's voice and she let go of Jane's finger and intertwined their fingers. She leant in to place a kiss on the brunette's lips when she stopped just short.
Jane let out a frustrated groan when their lips didn't make contact. She frowned at the medical examiner. "Maur?"
Maura felt her heart pound as she felt the detective's hot breath ghosting across her lips. "Mmm?"
Jane leant forward to meet her lips but Maura bent backwards to dodge the kiss. Jane gritted her teeth and narrowed her eyes "Maur?"
Maura grinned sneakily before she pulled Jane's arm and turned her around pulling her arm up into an arm lock. She stepped in close to Jane's body and licked under her ear. "Jane?"
Jane was stunned, she could, of course, get herself out of the grip, but she didn't want to hurt Maura and was intrigued as to what the ME was up to. "Yes Maur?"
"You are mine."
Jane shivered at the seductive tone to the medical examiner's voice. "Huh?"
"I am not your girl. You are mine detective." She playfully tugged at the brunette's arm. "Do you understand?"
Jane let out a loud laugh as she turned around to face Maura. She raised her hands in the air in mock surrender "Got it Doc!"
Maura pulled her into a passionate kiss and bit down on her bottom lip emitting a loud groan from Jane. "Good girl!" She winked at the brunette and smacked her on the ass before turning her attentions back to the body.
Jane beamed and shook her head. Boy Rizzoli we are in trouble!
Ok. Epilogue. Done. I'd like opinions again I'm unsure whether it fits, maybe I've been writing my other stories too much and got a bit muddled...what do you think? This is it though, I'll happily edit this chapter but there will be no more unless I do a sequel but this is it for this story. Thank you for reading guys xx
