Graveyard Shift - The Doctor's Couch

This particular John Doe case was wearing Jane out. She couldn't understand why every lead she had ended up coming to a dead end. It was as if, whoever killed this guy made sure to cover his tracks perfectly. Jane was irritated because this solving of this case, or rather the non-solving of this case, had started to affect parts of her life.

She spent way too much time at the precinct; she hasn't visited her mother, Jo Friday would be lucky to get fed twice a week, oh… And her nights relaxing at Maura's house had come to a halt. Jane was literally obsessed with this case.

She thumbed through the autopsy photos of the poor guy and tried to imagine what his life was like. His naked rigor body washed up in the harbor, so there wasn't anything identifying on him accept a tattoo that Maura was having analyzed.

Jane checked her watch. It read 1:00 am. She had to think long and hard about what day it was and when she remembered, she wanted to slap herself. It was Thursday night. Well, Friday now. She'd promised Maura that she was going come over and watch an episode of Good Eats with her. She hated watching that show. It was too technical and sciencey for her liking. She'd prefer to simply watch someone cook, instead of explaining the science behind it. But of course, Maura liked to watch it, and she suffered through it for her.

She picked up her phone and dialed Maura. It rang three times before the call connected.

"Dr. Isles?"

"Hey," Jane greeted her.

There was silence on the other line. Maura was upset with her and Jane knew it.

"Are you mad?"

Maura sighed. "No, I'm not angry. I'm disappointed. I was looking forward to spending time with you."

"I know and I'm sorry."

"What happened?"

Jane wanted to make up some lame excuse but she knew Maura would know the truth.

"Did you just forget about me?"

"Yeah… I'm sorry Maur." And Jane really did feel sorry for forgetting her. She felt like an ass, because Maura had been so patient and kind towards her. This was the third date that Jane canceled.

"I had something special planned for you." There was sadness in her voice that Jane clearly discerned.

"Maur… I'm so sorry. What did you have planned?"

Maura sniffled a bit.

"Are you crying?"

"No," Maura answered quickly. "It's not important what I planned."

"Yes, it is. Please tell me."

A moment of silence passed. "Jane, I'm a little tired. I'll see you in the morning."

Jane was shocked. Maura had never brushed her off before. She must be really upset.

"Oh, okay. Yeah. I'll see you tomorrow."

Jane held the phone, not wanting to be the first one to say goodbye. She listened to Maura breathing softly on the other end and all she wanted was to be there next her. She silently cursed herself for putting work before her family and friends.

"Goodbye, Jane."

Jane swallowed her heart back into her chest. "Bye, Maur." She said before she disconnected the line. She placed her phone down and stared at it for a moment.

"God, Jane, you're fucking up!" She chastised herself.

Suddenly, solving this case wasn't so important anymore. She was tired, and instead of being here at the police station, she should have been there with Maura… Sleeping next to her.

Her phone buzzed with a text message. It was from Maura.

Maura: I missed you tonight.

Jane's heart tugged at the words. She realized she was letting Maura down. She composed her reply and then deleted it. She composed another reply and then deleted it as well. Nothing that she had thought to say sounded right at the moment.

Jane: I still miss you.

Maura: I know. Don't work too hard. Goodnight.

Jane sighed and set her phone down. She was so disappointed in herself. She and Maura were experiencing something special these days. Something that she couldn't even describe. If she had to describe it, she would have to describe it as a mutual attraction for one another. And their nights cuddling on the couch watching cooking shows and documentary served as a way for them to explore this attraction in a private environment away from work. But of course, Jane and her dumb ass dedicated work ethic has really put a damper on this. She didn't know if she and Maura were friends, girlfriends, or what. They hadn't fucked yet, but Jane felt it was coming soon.

Jane sighed, thinking of how much Maura loved to hold onto her. And squeeze her as she has her in her arms. Maura's favorite cuddling position is the little spoon. Lately, they'd just been lying on the couch together, with Jane as the big spoon, watching Netflix until they dozed off. Maura always seemed so content in Jane's arms, and Jane was content with Maura in hers.

Jane leaned back in her chair and stretched. Wow, she was exhausted, and regardless if she worked all day today, she hadn't made any headway in this case! She leaned forward and put her head in her hands and nearly cried over it. But she held her emotions tight and took a deep breath. She knew she was more than likely reacting like this because of the strained conversation she had with Maura. She hated it when she disappointed and upset Maura. It put her out of sorts.

A minute later she rose from her seat and switched off her desk lamp. She had decided to go down to Maura's office and sleep on her couch. Maura always kept extra blankets in her personal items cabinet for times when Jane pulled an all-nighter.

Jane stepped into Maura's office and was greeted with an eerie silence. It was almost too quiet, but what did she expect from the morgue? She retrieved the blankets from the cabinet and lay down on the couch. She hadn't realized just how tired she was until she put her head down and suddenly, she felt as if she were being sucked into the couch by some unseen force. She checked her watch for the time, one last time, before allowing sleep to overtake her. A minute later, she was fast asleep.


Jane was sleeping sound when she felt someone touch her. She wasn't sure if she was dreaming or not, so she kept her eyes closed and waited. Maybe it was another Hoyt nightmare/hallucination. Or maybe, it wasn't. Jane felt a lock of hair that was draped over her face move and get tucked behind her ear. At first she panicked, but then she allowed her other senses to start working and not too long after, she realized who it was.

"Maur? What are you doing here?" Jane asked as she slowly opened her eyes. When her eyes finally focused on her, her heart skipped a literal beat as a surge of emotions flowed through her body.

"I should be asking you that question," She chuckled lightly. "This is my office isn't it?"

Jane groaned and turned over on her back, "This couch is so uncomfortable."

"It is not." Maura said as she walked over to her desk and sat down. She switched on the computer and started scrolling through some files."

"Why are you here so late?"

Maura glanced up from her monitor and stared at Jane for a moment, before she went back to working at the computer.

"Whoa, what was that all about?" Jane asked.

"What was what all about?" She responded as she continued to click on digital files.

"Maura…" Jane said her name with such an authoritative tone that Maura couldn't help but turn her full attention towards her. Jane sized her up for a while, her eyes scanned Maura's for an explanation for the weird behavior. She came to one simple conclusion. Maura was upset and pouting about it.

"Come here, please?" Jane said as she sat up on the couch and held her hand out. Maura didn't budge. "Or are you going to sit over there and pout all night?"

It was then that Maura cracked a smile. "Technically, it's morning already, Jane."

Jane nodded. "Yeah I know… Come here please."

Maura rose slowly from her chair and walked over to Jane. She stood in front of her before taking her hand. Jane pulled her towards her, never once breaking eye contact with her. Maura sat down beside Jane and sighed heavily as she lowered her eyes into her lap.

"Are you gonna stay mad at me?" Jane asked.

Maura shook her head negatively. "No."

"Look at me, please." Jane asked softly. When Maura lifted her head to gaze at her, Jane smiled. "What's wrong?"

Maura thought over her response for a long while. "You've been forgetting me a lot lately…" She said plainly, adding nothing more to her response. She didn't need to add anything to it either. Jane knew exactly what she meant.

She nodded, admitting her error. "I know, and I'm sorry."

"I really miss our time together. You've just been working so much lately."

"Yeah I have," Jane said softly as she caressed Maura's hands. "I miss our cuddling and Netflix."

Maura laughed softly. Me too. She squeezed Jane's hands and leaned over and kissed her lightly on the cheek. "Don't let me interrupt your sleep." She said as she rose from her seat and started to walk away, but Jane caught her arm.

"No… Please, don't go."

Jane's request stopped her in her tracks. Maura turned slowly and gazed at Jane.

"Will you lay here with me?" Jane asked.

A smiled crept up slowly, but she tried to hide it. "Are you sure?"

Jane nodded, "Certain."

Maura's smile got wider as she kicked off her shoes and walked back over to Jane. Jane reached out and took Maura's hand, pulled her into her embrace.

"You know I can't sleep right without you," Jane said as she wrapped her arms around Maura and settled into a cuddled position, with her as the big spoon of course.

"Then why do you make me sleep alone then?"

Jane rested her head on the arm of the couch as Maura rested hers on Jane's bicep. Jane reached around and pulled her closer, before tossing the blanket over them. "You're not alone now."

Maura sighed and relaxed in Jane's arms.

"Are you comfortable?" Jane asked, scooting back as far against the back of the couch as she could.

"Somewhat."

"What would make you more comfortable?"

"I think you know," Maura sighed as she pressed her body against Jane's.

Jane inhaled deeply as Maura's soft locks grazed across her face. Maura reached and took Jane's hand, placing it on her belly. Maura's hand held Jane's there as Jane trembled, obviously trying to control herself.

A moment later, Jane pressed her lips against the side of Maura's face, trailing soft kisses down her cheek, back up to her ear, and then to the back of Maura's neck.

Maura moaned softly as she reached up and cupped the back of Jane's head as she kissed her ear.

"That feels amazing, Jane." Maura's fingers laced through Jane's unruly locks, pulling her tighter against her.

Jane began to move her body against Maura's bottom. The sensation she felt was incredible as Maura rubbed against her. Jane pulled Maura firmly against her as she bit the nape of her neck gently; following it up with a graze of her tongue across the area she'd just bitten.

"I love your ass," Jane whispered into her ear, before she captured it with her lips and sucked on her lobe softly.

Maura only responded by clenching Jane's hair in her fingers and pulling her closer.

"Your body is perfect for me." The hotness of Jane's breath prickled Maura's skin.

"Oh yeah?" Maura gasped as Jane reached around and pulled her hard against her while she grinded herself against Maura. "What do you want to do with it?"

Jane whimpered a bit. It was the cutest thing that Maura had ever heard. Her desire caused her to whimper with anticipation.

Jane reached around and unbuttoned Maura's shirt, and quickly removed it before leaning in and placing soft wet kisses on Maura's back. Maura shivered as Jane's tongue traveled the length, width, and breadth of her lover's back. Her tongue trembled as she fought against the urge to bite her. Maura liked it when Jane bit her, and even if it turned her on beyond belief, she felt the need of restraint.

"I wish I had a strap right now." Jane groaned in Maura's ear.

"Tell me what you would do?" Maura's slender fingers massaged Jane's scalp as Jane buried her face into Maura's neck, kissing and sucking her neck expertly.

Jane reached around and pulled Maura's leg over her thigh, securing it as she grinded herself. Somehow, someway, Maura had come out of her skirt and she was just in her panties. Jane's trembling hands pulled at them, hoping to catch the right corner and pull them right off of her body.

"I would do so many things."

"What things?"

Jane squeezed Maura's ass cheeks and spread them as she pressed herself against her, mimicking what she would do.

"Oh Jane," Maura's quivering voice exhaled. "Yes."

"I'd slide it inside of you slowly, like this," she said as she thrust her hips against Maura's bottom, "holding it inside of you, letting you feel it deep in your pussy before I pull it out slowly."

"Mmm," Maura cooed. "Is that all?"

"No…" Jane said, "I'd turn you over like this," she turned Maura over onto her stomach and maneuvered herself on top of her, "And I'd fuck you so deep. Each time I go in, I would go deeper than the last until you begged me to stop." Jane spread Maura's legs out and moved in a way on top of her that showed what her true desire was.

"And then I'd turn you back over," she said turning Maura onto her back, "And look into your eyes while I do you missionary."

"Jane…" Maura's body arched towards Jane's, "You're turning me on so much."

"You started it."

"True," Maura's breaths were coming out in quick pants. "So then it's only fair that you finish it."

Jane's eyes widened and she looked around the room quickly. "Here?"

Maura nodded and smiled. Jane wasn't sure if she was serious or not until Maura took Jane's hand and placed it between her legs.

"Look what you did to me, Jane." Maura whispered.

Jane slid her finger inside Maura's tight pussy. "Oh my god, you're so tight."

Maura nodded and flexed her kegel muscles. "I exercise it to keep its firmness."

Jane swallowed hard as she fondled Maura purposefully.

Maura put her hands behind her head and invited Jane to explore her more. After a moment, Jane pulled her fingers out and slid them into her mouth. She already knew what Maura tasted like, she just hadn't tasted her directly before.

"I can't wait to taste you." Jane sighed.

"I can't wait for you to do it."

Jane took Maura's hands and secured them over her head. Jane had learned that Maura loved this. She smiled at her beautiful doctor before going in for a kiss. Their lips met and so the battle for control began. It was virtually obvious that Jane had the control. She was on top, with Maura's hands restrained, and Maura was seemingly submitting to her.

Maura's mouth traveled down Jane's chin and to her neck. She kissed it softly, being assisted by Jane as Jane helped Maura hit all the spots that she loved having kissed. This was her mistake however. Maura was sneaky and had a craving for control. The more she kissed Jane's neck, the more undone Jane became, until finally she had to let go of Maura's hands. Maura took this as an opportunity to embrace her and flip positions. Maura placed a soft bite on Jane's neck just as she executed the position switch.

Jane didn't even resist as Maura effortlessly moved on top for control.

"What are you doing, Maur?"

"I want you. That's why I came here tonight."

"But I'm working," Jane teased.

Maura chuckled and took Jane's arms. "I want that." She said as her eyes traveled down Jane's body to her top of her pants, "Right now."

Jane smiled wickedly. "You want to fuck me?"

Maura nodded, "Yes, I want to make love to you."

Jane spread her legs so that Maura could position herself better. "No, I want to hear you say it."

"Say what?"

Jane leaned up and kissed her, sliding her tongue inside of Maura's mouth, inviting her tongue to dance along. She pulled away and smiled at the expression on Maura's face. "Say you want to fuck me."

Maura swallowed hard.

Jane pulled her arms away from Maura's grip and unbuttoned her shirt and pulled it off, exposing her hardened nipples. She then unbuttoned her pants and slid them off. Maura seemed to be paralyzed by Jane's beautiful body. "Do you like what you see, Doctor?" Jane said mischievously as she reached down and parted herself, inviting Maura to dine on a feast of sensual pleasure.

Maura eyes widened and she took several deep gulps before her eyes returned to Jane's. "Oh my god, Jane…" She leaned in quickly and attacked Jane's lips with a fevered kiss. "I do, I want to fuck you so badly." Her voice trembled as she forced herself between Jane's legs and began grinding herself against her.

Skin against skin; and throbbing clits mixing for an ultimate pleasurable experience. Maura let go of Jane's hands and kissed her way down her line of symmetry to the spot that was crying out for some oral attention. It seemed to Jane like it took forever, but it was just a matter of minutes before Maura's mouth finally made it down there.

Maura paused and glanced back up at Jane. A smile crossed her face as she dipped her tongue inside, swirling it around before encircling Jane's hardened clit into her mouth and sucking it. Instantly, Jane's body starts trembling at the sensation of Maura's hot lips around her clit. Jane took Maura's head and thrust her hips so that her entire pussy got serviced by her.

"Yeah, that's it… Mmm." Jane moaned.

Maura re-positioned herself, wrapping her arms around Jane's thighs to prevent much movement from her. As she moved in for the final round, she only had one goal in mind. She wanted to blow Jane's mind and help her to decompress. Maura latched onto Jane's pulsating clit and began a series of licks, sucks, nibbles, laps, and twirls. Jane's body trembled violently as Maura struggled to hold her in place.

Jane reached down and clenched Maura's hair, causing Maura to look up at her. Their eyes met and Jane's lips trembled with unspoken words that although Maura could not audibly decipher, she understood what they were. She was happy to oblige.

She opened her mouth slightly wider and allowed Jane to pull her against her as she passionately rode Maura's expert mouth.

"Oh fuck… Yes…Baby yes." Jane moaned.

The wet sounds of Maura's tongue and Jane's love filled the room. Maura refused to lessen the pace as she assisted Jane's ride. She could feel Jane's clit getting harder and harder until Jane tensed up, literally becoming paralyzed in her grip.

Jane panted, as she let out a deep moan of pleasure as the last bit of her orgasm passed off the scene. After Maura was certain that Jane was finished climaxing she rose and kissed her lightly on the lips. Jane vacantly kissed Maura and kissed herself off of Maura's chin before collapsing fully back onto the couch.

"Jane?" Maura whispered. "Are you okay? Did you enjoy that?" Maura asked the obvious as she crawled behind Jane and pulled the covers over them.

"Mmm," was all Jane could say in response.

Maura chuckled lightly and kissed her on the face. "Promise me you won't forget about me again?"

"I promise."

"Good, because I'd hate to have to punish you again." She snuggled next to her and held Jane tightly.

Jane felt sleep creeping up on her again. "If this was punishment, I wonder what your rewards are like."

Maura leaned over and kissed her lightly on the lips. "Stop working the graveyard shift and I'll definitely show you what my rewards are like."

Jane's eyes widened with surprise as she looked at the Good Doctor. Or should she say, Naughty Doctor? Maura smiled and winked, affirming that she had indeed heard her correctly.

Jane sighed and accepted another kiss. She was glad that Maura came on down and helped her decompressed like this. After this, she was going to be sure to never miss another cuddle date with Maura… Ever.

Jane checked her watch before settling in to sleep. She sure hoped they woke up before Susie came in to work. Because this would be pretty hard to explain. But as she begin to drift off to sleep, she began to think that being discovered like this in Maura's arms wasn't that bad after all.

She smiled and sighed deeply one last time before drifting off. The last conscious sensation she felt was that of Maura wrapping her arms around her and whispering into her ear:

"I love you …"
