Both naked, they made their way over to the master's suite. Jane was walking behind Maura, raking her eyes over the doctor's back side, trying hard not to reach around her and take her right there.

"You like what you see?" Maura asked without even turning around.

"Mmmh..." Jane nodded, smiling.

Maura stopped abruptly right before reaching the door to her bedroom, and Jane almost rammed into her. She stood so close to Maura's back that she could feel the heat of her skin on her breasts.

"Touch me." Maura asked, almost shy, her back still to Jane.

Jane placed her hands on Maura's hips, and pulled the blonde back into her. Their bodies interlocked perfectly, Maura a couple of inches shorter, so that Jane could dip her head into her neck. She inhaled Maura's perfume and her hands started traveling up, smoothing over Maura' stomach. Slowly, she moved up so she could cup Maura's heavy breasts into her palm, and she kneaded them slowly, lifting them up and pushing them together, teasing dusky nipples at the same time. Maura's head dropped back and to the side, her eyes closed, seeking Jane's mouth. Jane slowly turned her around and kissed her open-mouthed, her tongue snaking inside languidly, her breaths coming in long deep blows through her nose.

Jane put her hands on Maura's ass, and after kneading the soft cheeks for a moment, she lifted Maura up against her. Maura yelped inside her mouth, but didn't break the kiss. The doctor wrapped her legs around Jane and let her carry her inside the bedroom.

Jane dropped Maura as gently as she could manage on the king size bed, and laid down next to her, face to face. They wrapped their arms around each other and smiled.

"Why didn't you tell me?" Jane whispered, then kissed Maura's lips.

"I... I didn't think you'd reciprocate. I didn't want to ruin our friendship."

She gave Jane a light kiss back.

"How did Casey know?" Maura asked.

Jane sighed. She kissed Maura again.

"I don't think I've ever been so... responsive with him. It wasn't bad or anything, it was nice... and comfortable. But you... " Jane dipped her head next to Maura's ear and whispered in secret, as if it was too big to say out loud. "You touched me, inside. You made me come so hard..."

Jane's hot breath on her ear made Maura shiver, and reminded her of the wet pool between her legs.

"Glad I didn't disappoint...," Maura murmured back, breathless. She turned her head and covered Jane's mouth with her own, seeking her tongue, this time clearly aroused and ready again. She hooked her leg around Jane's and rolled them over so the detective was on top of her.

"I need you now, please..."

Jane lifted her head up and looked at the form beneath her. Maura's hair was spread around on the pillows, already messed up from the previous session. Her eyes were dark and hooded, lips full and flushed with desire. Jane felt a tight knot in the pit of her stomach.

This was the woman she'd make fun of when they first met. Most people at the precinct had never bothered revising their first impression of her, and to them, she was still the Queen of the Dead. She had become Jane's best friend. Jane couldn't imagine her life without the doctor. She was generous and quirky, funny and inadequate. She was incredibly attractive, both men and women wanted her.

Now Maura was spreading her legs for her, already grinding her hips into her. This would change everything.

"Maura..." Jane whispered the name to herself, as if speaking it for the first time. She liked the sound of it.

The doctor blinked and looked up at her with intense lust in her eyes.

"Mmmh, your voice... Say it again."

"Maura..." Jane repeated, even lower.

Jane lowered her mouth onto Maura's, and kissed her deeply, slow and thorough. She pushed her pelvis firmly against Maura, feeling the wetness against her own curls. She groaned into Maura's mouth, who moaned in return. They breathed hard though their open mouths, still kissing and starting to get heavy again.

Jane dipped her hand between them, and grabbed a breast in her palm. She kneaded it firmly, pinching the nipple between her fingers. Maura arched into her, moaning louder, surprised and delighted by Jane's roughness. This wasn't the shy Jane from an hour ago.

The detective wanted to explore every inch of Maura's body, she wanted to take possession of her. Realizing her attraction to the doctor made her want to make up for lost time. She sucked and licked around Maura's face and neck, while her hands roamed down her torso and arms. They smoothed over the pale skin as low as her knees, then came slowly back up around the inside of her thighs. Maura was panting helplessly, her hips tilted up in anticipation.

Maura felt Jane's fingers slip over her wetness before they even reached their goal. Her arousal had been so intense, her juices had spread between her thighs, and Jane was now taking pleasure in teasing her, gliding her fingers around in wide circles, grazing her nether lips and curls, sending electric shocks into her core. She was just as tense as Jane had been when she'd had her head between her legs. Payback had never been so sweet.

Jane had lifted herself up to get better access, and a better view of the blonde. The only points of contact were her hand, and her thighs that she used to hold Maura's legs apart. She was hovering above Maura, a fresh sheen of sweat on her olive skin from her renewed arousal.

Maura looked up at her and thought how magnificent Jane looked, her muscles strong and defined on her feminine form, straining to pleasure her. Her breasts were just inches from her face, and the blonde reached up with both hands to cup them and tease them. Jane moaned and arched into the touch.

Without warning, the brunette plunged three fingers into Maura's warm opening with a wet, sloppy sound. Maura's head shot back against the pillows, and a strangled cry escaped her mouth. She felt Jane hook her fingers up like she had done to her earlier, reaching into her core with an intensity she had never felt. Her breath caught in her throat, as if trying to preserve the sensation, bottling it up inside.

As Jane pumped in and out of her, Maura pushed back against her strokes, already sensing the climax approaching, a faint glow in the far distance. The doctor opened her eyes and looked back at Jane, at the gorgeous woman who she'd never thought could be hers. The sweat was dripping off Jane's face onto Maura's chest, her hair matted in unruly curls, like a goddess in the midst of battle.

"Oh Jane,... Ja-ane..."

The orgasm closing in quickly, Maura started panting, then stopped breathing again. Suddenly, it was there, rearing up. It enveloped her with blinding intensity, filling her up from inside, radiating through her extremities. She bucked up against Jane, gripping the sheets at her sides to steady herself.

A long series of moans came out of her mouth, in rhythm with the contractions inside of her. She felt a warm gush between her legs, pooling in Jane's hand and down her crack, the result of the G-spot stimulation. She was hit by another wave, shorter but just as intense.

Maura reached around Jane's neck and brought her down for a sloppy kiss, her mouth cool against Jane's heat. She kept moaning with the few remaining aftershocks, catching her breath again, little by little.

The spasms slowly subsided, leaving her in a puddle of her own juices, spent and content, a dull throb between her legs. Her hips relaxed down into the mattress.

Jane rolled over to her side, slipping her fingers out carefully. She looked into Maura's eyes and her heart clenched again.

"You're so beautiful, Maura."

"I love you," Maura whispered, unable to stop the words. She immediately wondered if it was too fast. She lowered her gaze, surprised at how much she cared about Jane's reaction. She braced herself.

A thin smile stretched across Jane's face, and she closed her eyes, waiting for her throat to let her talk again.

"I love you too," She whispered back, her voice strangled with emotion. She buried her face into Maura's neck.

"Hold me," she asked.

Maura wrapped her arms around her, squeezing her tight and cradling her head. She smiled and kissed the top of Jane's hair.

They fell asleep.
