Between Us

66. Boston &California

Jane and I laid in bed after we got cleaned up. I wasn't going to push making love tonight with Jane.  "Jane let's just cuddle, so you can relax. I know last night was rough. We can just talk about anything before we became sexually intimate with each other. "  "I  still want my jersey though. " I laughed and tickled her, we wrestled in bed and Jane straddled me and kissed me.  I kissed her back and held her hands. "Jane I am serious babe. We can tomorrow."  I got off of Maura and we faced each other talking until after three in the morning. Maura and I fell asleep with Maura's head on me.
The next morning I heard the door bell ring.  Iooked at the time nine. I  put my robe on and answered the door. " Mam these are for a Ms. Maura Isles. " I signed for the flowers. Normally you don't sign for flowers but this bouquet was expensive and the sender wanted to know I received them.

  I  read the card. ' Maura thank you. let the competition begin.  😉I hired one of your chef heads. ♡ Sam" I text Sam and thanked her. 'I am looking forward to it.' I  heard my cell ding. I  woke up and I was in the guest room. Deb must of carried me to bed . I read Maura's text and than saw Deb's note. -Sam you were tired so I carried you to the guest bedroom.  Breakfast in the oven. love you Deb '
I  got up and put a jersey on and went downstairs to eat. I was curious to see what type of car Maura had  and looked into the garage that was not connected to the house.

I  laughed when I  saw we had basically the same car. I was walking to the main house when Fed Ex arrived . I signed for the package anf brought it inside.  I  called Maura . "your very welcome.  your purchase came. Where do you want me to leave it in your lovely home ? "   "Thanks I will be glad when I can finally see it in person. Deb worked her behind on it. I am trying to get her back ordered expedited but the manufacture workers are on strike.  I  cannot do anything. If this strike doesn't end soon, I will place an order with another company that is more expensive.  The only reason I haven't is because she is a proudful woman and already stated Nani did enough. How you doing?"  " Better being here but still hurt." 
" leave it in my bedroom closet. I will wrap it later.  She is doing better. We talked until after three.  She had lots of questions on rough sex and asked me why you and Deb are into it. I encouraged her to ask you two. Angela is still struggling with our sex partners but she is working on accepting it. Be prepared for her brothers to ask you and Deb questions. She is doing her best to answer them. We told Angela that we would answer their questions.  It may...very babe you up. I am talking to Sam thanking her for the flowers ." " Nice flowers   I am going to go for a run."  
" Maura she still mad.  I  will see you when you get here. If it gets too tense in your home  ,I will stay at my hotel instead ."  "Sam please don't do that.  it will only make it worse. I am still working on her to help her get past this . It won't happen over night. love you Sam."  " Love you too thanks ." Sam hung up.  I got dressed to go after Jane. Jane never left.  She was sitting in the front crying. I  sat next to her and held her ."Maura I am trying.  I  don't like feeling this way. Will you stay near me when I call her?" 
" Yes, let's go inside. Deb is at work right now.  I don't know her schedule. Let's go inside and call her.  We can do this through the tv's or laptops?"  We go inside and Jane calls her from her cell and I link it to the t.v.   "Hello" "Samantha can you link your cell to the t.v.   I would but I don't know the password."  I  look at Maura. "Sam I  will do it from here." "Babe I know my head is in a bad space I am trying and Maura trying to get me over this . I want to work hard because I don't want friction when we get there?"
" Babe if its too hard,  I will stay at my hotel."  "No, don't do that. I want to spend my birthday with us five. I love you Samantha.  I am not giving up on us. When we get there, I want to talk to you and Deb. Deb sleep with Maura and I want to be with you in the same bed babe. I am not losing you. I  Love you."  "I love you too. "  We said our goodbyes and Maura disconnected us.
The door bell rings. "Jane please get it."  UPS driver brings up a box addressed to me. I  sign for it. Maura comes downstairs wearing my Jersey again." You like teasing me. Your mean. I have a box here addressed to me but I didn't order anything but my birthday is this week." 
"Open it silly."  Jane opens the box up. " Oh shit, no fucking way. There is no card with it.I  don't know who to thank. Only you and Samantha can afford this. "  Jane calls Samantha.  "Babe I got a box and had to sign for it. I opened it. Only you and Maura could afford this. Did you buy this for me?"  " Buy you what?"

"Babe BABE RUTH'S ROOKIE CARD AND HIS TRANSFER DOCUMENT FROM THE RED SOX TO THAT SORRY TEAM YANKEES ."  I can hear Sam laughing. "Babe really. N.Y. Yankees has an awesome team but no it's not from me."  Jane looks at me.  " You bitch its from you and you didn't say anything but came downstairs wearing ny jersey again that,I am getting back. I will figure that safe combination. " Jane puts me on speaker. " Jane you never gave me the opportunity to say yes. You said it was from either Sam and I and you hit your contact button for Sam before I could respond."  Sam and I  are laughing. "Babe I an glad you enjoy your gift from Maura but talk crap about one of my teams."  I  left the room laughing and text SAM. 'This is your opportunity to break that wall. keep talking smack to her. I am going to take her car to buy wrapping paper, tape and bow.  I  still think it will mean more if the jersey and the frame is from both of us. You see her reaction to what I got her. Text me if you change your mind Sam. love u '  ' Okay, what is my share, I  got a deal because I got the other items she received today from the same seller. 15 grand. I  still want to add Deb's name.  please work on it. tell her she can pay us in good sex lol..' hmmm good idea. She will lol and probably agree than. yes,I  will go half if she doesn't  thanks Maura. I had then send these two to throw her off but figured it could help you too. love u.'  ' Babe I need to run errand. where are your car keys?"  " jersey for keys. "  "nope, I  will call an uber. Love you bye."

"babe you want your jersey that bad ? Don't be that way."  " Ah shit, I am in the dog house. Babe she is gone. uber must of been in the area. I  want to do something with me.  If you don't,  no problem "
"Jane you have to ask me silly you ."   "oh, year phone sex."  " I can do that. " I enter my  beach house and see Jane and hear Sam. "   Oops,  sorry. I  will be upstairs taking  a nap.  Continue. " I  return home and hear Jane and Sam. I quietly go upstairs to let them have their fun.  "Jane oh shit,  Deb came home..She is upstairs. I am embarrassed. "  " Jane laughs, thank you. We will be there tomorrow love you Samantha. "  " Love you too "  I  wash up and go upstairs and Maura is asleep.  I climb into bed and cuddle."  Maura feels me and covers my hands with hers and falls back to sleep.
I go upstairs and Deb laughs. " I was expecting to walk in on that but glad you made up sorta.   Go wash up and join me so I can make you feel better too."  We made love in their bed,  no rough sex just gentle sex and it was new for us but it still felt good. We got up and I bbq for us. We cleaned up and went to bed because I had an early day again.
