Summary: a former suspect of Elliot and Olivia's is lost in Boston. Can they work with Jane and Maura to catch him?
Disclaimer: OK, the characters of Rizzoli & Isles and Law and Order: SVU aren't mine. This takes place during the first season of Rizzles and the twelfth season of SVU. It helps if you've read the book series for Rizzoli & Isles, there will be some references to those. But it's not required, really, I don't think, just know that there will be book spoilers. SVU is going to be kind of AU since I've already got EO together, and anyone who's been watching will be able to tell how AU it will be. Plus, since there actually is no rule about couples not working together when you are a cop in NYC, I completely ignore the fact that Dick Wolf tried to make us think there was. There will be a Rizzoli/Isles pairing, too, of course, 'cause how adorable are Rizzles? Anyway, hope you like it. I'll let you get to it. There's a case that leads Elliot and Olivia to Boston.
Lost In Boston
By Julia
It was a calm summer evening in Boston, Massachuesetts. Jane Rizzoli awoke, the sun hitting her face. She turned over and was facing her best friend slash crush, Maura Isles. She hadn't worked up the nerve to say anything to her yet, but she had the feeling that Maura loved her, too. They had gotten drunk the night before, celebrating a case that they had closed. Jane kicked Maura lightly with her foot. "Hey. Wake up, sleepyhead." She said, yawning and stretching. This was so not the first time this had happened, they spent the night with each other all the time.
Maura yawned, too, and turned to face her. "Good morning to you, too, Jane." She said pointedly, pushing back curly blonde hair.
Jane smiled to herself and then made sure to wipe it off her face before saying, "Yes, well, that should go without saying, Maura." She pet her dog, Joe Friday, and got out of bed. They'd fallen asleep with their clothes on. She said, "I'm going to make some coffee. Do you want some? Or some breakfast?" She hoped Maura would. They were both off today, sparing an emergency.
Maura watched Jane move gracefully as she got up out of the bed. She stretched. She kept clothes here, she'd have to take a shower and change. She wished she had the courage to tell Jane how she felt. She loved her. They got along so well. She felt like one of the family. She so enjoyed being with Jane. She followed her hopefully soon to be love to the kitchen. She said, "We could go out and get breakfast."
Jane thought that sounded absolutely heavenly. She loved any time she got to spend with Maura. She said, "We can if that's what you want. Why don't you go ahead and shower first if you want." She said. She thought she was being very generous there. It was a testament to how much she loved Maura. Maura was such a girly girl, and took forever in the bathroom. Jane was annoyed to know end about it sometimes.
Maura smiled. It wasn't like Jane to readily give up the shower like that. She knew it was a testament to how much Jane regarded her. She said, "Ok, Jane, sounds good.", and headed up to shower.
About an hour later, they were sitting at Mickey D's. They were hungry enough that they wanted it quickly. They sat down to eat their Egg McMuffins and hash browns. Jane had gotten coffee and orange juice, and Maura had chosen just juice. They were just tucking in when they were joined by Dectective Barry Frost, Jane's partner at the Boston PD. "Hi, Frost." Jane said, a little curtly. She had hoped it to be just herself and Maura.
Frost smiled and sat down in the seat with Jane. He was glad that they were there, he'd not been looking forward to eating alone. "So what are you guys doing today?" He was headed to work after breakfast.
Jane took a sip of her coffee as she looked at Maura. "Not sure yet. We just got up not too long ago. We got drunk last night." She said, taking a sip of coffee again.
Frost noticed the look Maura gave Jane. He spent a lot of time observing the two of them. He was already married, and he had learned a lot about women. He could tell that they dug each other. He knew it was only a matter of time until something happened. He said, "Didn't you say something about your mom's birthday, Rizzoli?" He knew she preferred him to call her that instead of Jane. She wanted to be considered one of the guys.
Jane gasped. "Maura! I totally forgot about Ma's party! I have to show up with a gift. We need to go shopping! You HAVE to come with me." She said, illiciting a smile from Maura.
Maura said, "Of course, Jane. I'll help you pick out something good for Angela's birthday." She knew it was important for Jane to win any kind of sibling rivalry. She was older than Frankie Jr., but not Michael. She always felt like the odd man, or in this case, girl out. She always tried to be the best one. She did no matter what it took. Her eldest brother always seemed to get a free pass. This usually upset Jane and Frankie. They were the ones who had gotten good steady jobs as cops. They'd grown up with not a lot of money and so they'd wanted something safe. Well, Jane had. Frankie Jr. usually did whatever Jane did. It upset Angela. She had wanted more for Frankie. She seemed to get along with Maura well. Jane always felt right at home when Maura was with her for family outings.
Frost looked at her. "Are you serious, Rizzoli? You haven't gotten your ma a birthday present yet? Her birthday is today."
Jane felt terrible. She normally planned for these things in advance, especially so she could look better than Frankie and Michael, but her case load had been crazy lately. "Yeah, I know, I'm awful. But I'll get something great. At least the party is already planned. I just need to get out and just get something for Ma." She turned to look at Maura. "Where do you think we should start?" She asked. Jane loved her mother, but she knew that Maura would know better than she would what her mother would want.
Maura said, "Well, I don't think you should get her a gift card for anywhere, she won't think that it's very personal. Even if it's for a store she likes. Don't get her anything that she needs, either. Get her something that she wants, that she wouldn't get for herself." She was already thinking on what it should be. She thought Angela Rizzoli was a fine woman, and she hoped that one day Angela would be her mother in law. She couldn't imagine being married again to anyone but Jane. Even if it couldn't be legal, they could have a commitment ceremony.
Jane nodded. "OK. But I wonder what that something is." Her phone rang, and she checked her caller id. It was Angela. "Ma. What are you up to? Happy Birthday, Ma." Jane said, all atwitter, very nervously. She loved her mother but talking to Angela always exhausted her. Her mother could exasperate the most patient man in the world.
Angela was just finishing up breakfast for Frankie Jr. and Frank Sr. She was setting it up on the table and hollering out for them to come to the table. She said, "You haven't called yet this morning to wish me happy birthday, Jane Rizzoli." Angela loved all three of her children, but she liked to think she was closest to Jane.
Jane ran her hand through her long black hair. "Yeah, I know, Ma. I'm at breakfast with Maura and Frost. Maura and I will be over after we run a couple of errands." She hoped that her mother would not guess that she still had to get her a present, she would never hear the end of it.
Angela wondered when Jane was going to realize that she was already in a relationship with Maura Isles. Angela liked Maura, she thought she was a very nice young woman. She didn't mind at all if Maura was gay, as long as she still got grandchildren. And she liked Maura and Jane together. They had a good dynamic. It was nice. Angela said, "That's nice. I'm glad you're bringing Maura. She's a nice girl. Are things ever going to happen there, Jane? I just want you to be happy, and I know you love her." Angela had decided there was no need to beat around the bush anymore.
Jane was shocked that her mother had paid that much attention. She hadn't known that her mother knew. But she guessed that it wasn't really a surprise. It was fairly obvious to the casual observer. "Ma, I don't know, but I can't freely talk about it right now. I do hear what you are saying. And hopefully soon." She hoped that would appease her mother, since with Maura sitting at the table, she couldn't really discuss it.
Her mother hoped that Jane wasn't just trying to put her off. Angela knew Jane did that. She thought that Jane was a good girl. Angela would have to accept what Jane was telling her for now, since Maura was there with her. "Alright. You just better not be lying to me, Jane Rizzoli. Well, I don't want to cut this short, but I called for the boys to eat breakfast, and they haven't come down yet. I need to see if they heard me. You call and let me know when you and Maura are on the way to the house."
Jane said, "I will, Ma, see you in awhile." She hung up and smiled at Maura. "Can't start the day without a guilt trip from Ma." She took a sip of her orange juice. "So we need to hurry up. Ma wants us to call her when we're on the way there. And I've got to call Frankie and make sure that he's going to help get Ma out of the way." She pulled out her phone again. She'd better get that out of the way right now.
Frankie answered on the second ring, even though he was heading to the breakfast table. "What's up, Janie?" He asked, even though he knew she hated to be called that.
She groaned, "Don't call me that, Frankie. Listen, you're going to get Ma out of the house in a little while so I can fix the house for the party, right?" She would kill him if he didn't say yes, he had already promised that he would.
Her brother laughed a little as he stopped on the stairs. He didn't want Angela to overhear. "Yeah, I already said I would. What time do you want me to have her out? I'm going to tell her that I want her to help me pick out some clothes for a pretend date. That will give us at least a couple of hours." He didn't have any other ideas for keeping his mother away, so that would have to work. He didn't know how much time Jane would need.
Jane said, "That should be fine. Maura and I will be able to get everything set up by then. Just make sure you give me a heads up before you bring Ma back to the house." She didn't want to be the one getting surprised in that regard.
Frankie promised that he would, and told her he had to go, Angela was hollering for him again. He told her he'd see her later.
Jane clicked off her phone, and as she did, she noticed Frost was getting up. "Did we do something to offend you, Frost?" She asked, although she was secretly glad he was leaving. It gave her alone time with Maura.
Frost shook his head. "No, I have to go and get ready for the party. Alice won't be able to come with me, she's got some party with her friends." He said, and deep down, Jane was pleased. None of them really liked Alice much. She was kind of a cold woman.
Meanwhile, in New York City, Elliot Stabler and his wife Olivia were just leaving their work. They were just detectives with the Manhattan Special Victims Unit. They were heading home to their house in Queens. They had had an apartment in Manhattan, but they'd gotten a house to have some rooms for El's kids with his ex-wife that he shared custody with. Plus, they'd talked about having some of their own. They'd only been married a few months. Elliot and his wife Kathy had split up a few years ago. El and Olivia had dated for two years before they'd gotten married. Olivia's maid of honor had been her best friend Casey Novak. Elliot's best man had been their friend Fin Tutuola. He and Olivia were practically brother and sister they were so close.
When they got home, Olivia flipped on the tv to watch the news while Elliot ordered the Chinese food. She was surprised to find them talking about Richard White, a man who had stalked and killed several women in New York ten years ago. He had tried to get to Olivia. He had apparently been seen in Boston, Massachuesetts. She called out to Elliot, "Babe, Richard White's been spotted in Boston. You don't think he killed again, do you?" It was noon, normally, they'd still be at work, but they'd just spent three full days at work, solving the case. Cragen, their boss, had ordered them home.
Elliot had finished ordering the Chinese, and he came into the living room. He said, "Are they suspecting him of something?" They hadn't been able to put him away for what he had done in New York. Maybe if he had done something in Boston they'd be able to catch him.
His wife shook her head, saying, "No babe, he hasn't yet. It was just a sighting. Do you think maybe we ought to go to Boston? Talk to homicide, tell them what we know? Or maybe wait and see if he does something? You know, we do have some vacation time coming, and I don't know about you, but I've never been to Boston." He joined her on the couch.
Elliot slipped his arm around her and she laid her head on his shoulder. He thought they should wait until they had a reason, but he had to admit, it did sound like a good idea to go to Boston. They hadn't had a vacation in awhile, not since their honeymoon. And that had been both of their first vacation in a long time. "If you want to go I guess we could. It might be fun. As long as you promise that we're going to check out some of the historical stuff. I've never been there and I would love to check it out." He knew that he was surprising her, they had never talked about the fact that history was interesting to him.
Olivia smiled and shrugged at him. "That's fine, babe. We can call Cragen tomorrow and ask him if it's alright." She said, as the news ended and they changed to old Roseanne reruns.
Back in Boston, Jane and Maura were just arriving at Jane's parents' house when they both got a call on their phones. Jane was pissed. This meant a dead body. Yup, sure enough, across the city in the park. Where Jane and Maura sometimes ran. They gave Frankie Angela's present and they went back out to Jane's car. They drove as quickly as speed limits would allow and they got to the park in record time. Korsak and Frost were already there. Detective Vince Korsak was also their partner. Jane greeted them quickly and immediately asked about the crime scene.
Korsak said, "It's a 24 year old girl, she is a med student at Mass Gen. Name's Anna Shepard. She was raped and tortured. She died from a lot of blood loss. She moved here from New York when she went to BCU. It seems random, she was dumped here. Witness saw a rented Mazda Miata drop her here and drive away."
Jane absorbed this. It sounded like it could be someone from out of town. She pulled on the gloves Maura handed her as they went to examine the body. "Did anyone report her missing?" Jane asked, as she knelt over the body to check it out. She wondered if someone had followed Anna from New York to kill her. It was possible. If it was someone from Boston, why would they have had to rent a car?
Frost took that one. "Not sure, we're going to have to check that out. The news gambit is out there. I wouldn't recommend asking them about her being possibly missing." He turned to Maura. "Is there something on her that may determine where she was killed?"
Maura had been examining the body while they'd been talking. "Not at first glance, but I'm sure that upon closer examination in the lab I'll be able to hazard an answer." Maura didn't guess. She liked to be sure about things. She would never guess.
Jane fought back a smile, she thought that was one of the cutest and infuriating things about her friend. She said, "That's fine, Maura. You get back to the lab, we'll go to her place, and try to figure out who may have done this to her. Let us know when you have something." She and Maura shared a look, and Korsak agreed to take Maura back to the precinct with him so Frost and Jane could go and check out Anne's and see if there had been a struggle.
The next day, Elliot and Olivia were arriving in Boston in the late afternoon. Cragen had okayed them and they'd gotten as early a flight as they could and packed quickly. They got off the plane and got their things to get to their hotel. After they got settled, they were going to go and talk to a Dect. Jane Rizzoli in homicide. Cragen had called ahead for them.
Across the road from the airport, Richard White watched Dect. Olivia Stabler get into a cab with some bags and her husband. He had kept track of Olivia all these years, and he had not been surprised to find that Elliot and Olivia had gotten married. He had been able to tell that they'd been in love back then. He was glad that his actions had brought the Stablers to Boston. Now he could kill both of them and Rizzoli and her little girlfriend. Richard actually didn't have anything against Elliot, other than he had married Olivia. This was going to be fun.

Frost took that one. "Not sure, we're going to have to check that out. The news gambit is out there. I wouldn't recommend asking them about her being possibly missing." He turned to Maura. "Is there something on her that may determine where she was killed?"
Maura had been examining the body while they'd been talking. "Not at first glance, but I'm sure that upon closer examination in the lab I'll be able to hazard an answer." Maura didn't guess. She liked to be sure about things. She would never guess.
Jane fought back a smile, she thought that was one of the cutest and infuriating things about her friend. She said, "That's fine, Maura. You get back to the lab, we'll go to her place, and try to figure out who may have done this to her. Let us know when you have something." She and Maura shared a look, and Korsak agreed to take Maura back to the precinct with him so Frost and Jane could go and check out Anne's and see if there had been a struggle.
The next day, Elliot and Olivia were arriving in Boston in the late afternoon. Cragen had okayed them and they'd gotten as early a flight as they could and packed quickly. They got off the plane and got their things to get to their hotel. After they got settled, they were going to go and talk to a Dect. Jane Rizzoli in homicide. Cragen had called ahead for them.
Across the road from the airport, Richard White watched Dect. Olivia Stabler get into a cab with some bags and her husband. He had kept track of Olivia all these years, and he had not been surprised to find that Elliot and Olivia had gotten married. He had been able to tell that they'd been in love back then. He was glad that his actions had brought the Stablers to Boston. Now he could kill both of them and Rizzoli and her little girlfriend. Richard actually didn't have anything against Elliot, other than he had married Olivia. This was going to be fun.
