You never expected that, did you detective ?

Chapter 3

"Maur' I can't find your DVD!"

"Well I can't help you, I am preparing diner. I told you it was next to the TV so open your eyes and you'll find it!"

"The only DVD there, is one you wouldn't watch and neither would I so... For once, you must have said something wrong and you put the DVD somewhere else!"

"Nope I think you found it!"

"hm-mh Maur' we are not going to watch that!

"Well apparently it's part of the American cinematographic culture and Frankie said it was a work of art!"

Maura couldn't see Jane's face from the kitchen but she was pretty sure she was pouting.

So she added: "Jane, would you rather watch Zombieland or the documentary about the different types of insects you can find in a decaying human body that I recorded last night?"

"Ok I'll put it in the DVD player"

"Thanks! Besides it's a comedy so you won't be scared! And I'll hold your hand if you want."

"Haha funny! You'll be the one who will beg me to stop the movie because it's complete crap!"

Maura sat next to the brunette on the couch.

"Jane, watch your language! Or I'll shut your mouth." And she kissed her.

"Hm if it's the way you make me shut up, I'm going to swear all night long!"

Maura responded with a naughty smile.

"We've got the pizza, wine and beer and chocolate, I think you can press play!"

"Alright here we go shitty movie!"

After a while, when she had finished eating, Maura laid down on the couch, her head on Jane's lap. The detective started to play with the blond hair. Then she massaged her scalp. The ME couldn't focus on the movie anymore, first of all because as Jane had foreseen, it was not interesting but mostly because her best friend was the only thing she could think about.

Jane noticed that Maura was beginning to be a little agitated as if she was impatient, but what for?

"Are you really sure you want to watch it until the end?"

"I have to admit that you were right... And that it is a waste of time. I was thinking we could do something else..."

"I agree... So, what do you have in mind then?"

Maura sat again and leaned towards Jane.

She whispered just one word:"You"
