Gone(rizzoli And Isles)

chapter 17

The next week went by relatively fast and uneventful. Jane and Maura explored their new relationship as often as possible, except Jane was more careful about leaving marks on her beautiful girlfriend. Thankfully Maura was able to hide the last mark until it faded and no one said anything to her. Maura and Jane had not said anything about their relationship to Frost or Korsak or Frankie for that matter, and apparently Angela was respecting their privacy because she had not told anyone, that Jane was aware of. Before she starts back to work next week, Jane thought she would invite everybody to dinner and tell everybody about her and Maura.

Today was her therapy day, and Jane was actually looking forward to going and telling Dr. Howell about her new relationship with Maura. Maura had left early to go in and work on some paperwork before she performed an autopsy. They were going to meet for lunch at the café and visit with Angela for a little while.

"Well, he feels like you recovered a little too quickly and things were not as bad as they should have been."

Jane thought about the withdrawal and the pain she was in both emotionally, and physically. She did not think she could make it through all of that again. Jane turned away from the man and started walking toward her appointment. She really wished she had her gun on her, but it was at the precinct. She would be getting it back in a week.

"Detective, I know you are not happy to see me, but I think you should come with me."

"Really," Jane said as she turned around, "you mean this time I get the choice of rather I want to go with you. Well, I pass. Thanks for the offer, but I am very busy you know going to therapy to get over my HEROIN ADDICTION, you bastard." She yelled.

"Fine, guess I will just tell the boss to start on Dr. Isles. Let her know that her girlfriend could care
