*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*Due to lack of room I sized this story into two pages, sorry for any incovenience *~*~*~*~*~*~*~* (A couple weeks ago) "Are you okay? Faith....Faith?" Faith looked over at her partner's face. Everything seemed to be in and out of focus. She nodded. "Yeah I'm fine...why?" She felt as though her tongue was slurring and she would pass out right there in the squad car. "Well you just look I don't know, a tad bit groggy like you're not all here. Did you take some medication or something?" Faith had. It was for her pain in her chest. Going to work when you just had surgery can be a really bad idea. It hurt and she was just sore from the head down to the waist. So she took some of the medication the doctor had prescribed to her, only she believed the doctor forgot to tell her it was a knock out kind. Faith had also had made the mistake by taking it before she left the locker room. Now she was feeling the effect of the drug working and all she wanted was to sleep heavily, only you can't do that while your working. Bosco was talking and laughing about something. She nodded her head, pretending she was actually listening. She closed her eyes, hoping to stop the world from spinning. "Here we go." Said Bosco as he got out of the car. A car had been reported to be swerving trying to play chicken with on coming traffic. Its last location was around the area in which 55-David was patrolling and Bosco found it parked in front, well more over a fire hydrant with the water squirting everywhere. The male was in his car acting like a little kid and making sounds and turning the wheel, only the car was turned off or it was dead. Bosco approached cautiously, his hand on his gun. He wasn't too sure what the guy was up to so better safe then sorry. "Hey you in the car, can you please step out with your hands where I can see them." The man looked around and then looked at Bosco and pointed to himself. "Yes you, now sir." Bosco smiled and shook his head. He then mumbled loud enough for only Faith to hear. "Can you believe this goon or what?" He didn't get a response or anything from his partner. He turned around to see she was still sitting in the car. "What the...." Bosco turned his attention back to the man getting out of the car. He looked and then was blinded. He grabbed his eyes in pain. The guy had just squirted him with mace. "SON OF A BITCH." He let out a loud howl of ache as it began to burn his eyes. Faith eyes shot open. She had dozed off. Took her a couple seconds to realize her surroundings. Faith heard her partners distress and saw Bosco clutching his eyes while the man made an attempt to grab Boz's gun from it's holster. Faith scrambled out of the car and began to run up shouting bring her gun to bare. The man didn't listen and as he held in his hands looking at in awe she continued to run up to them. Bosco had gotten a quick glance through the tears of pain, the man had his gun. Bosco than tackled the guy as though he was a line backer. The man's legs collapsed against Bosco's weight and they both tumbled onto the hard cement. Bosco quickly handcuffed the guy before he got any resistance all though he wouldn't because the man was knocked out solid. "DAMMIT! THIS SHIT STINGS." Bosco was sitting down on the road rubbing his eyes. Faith was kneeling towards her partner. "God I'm so sorry Bosco." He waved her off though and just kept on rubbing his eyes as the burning was felt over his eyes. He couldn't move them or it would surge a powerful pain through his senses and he found it would just hurt all over again. Doc and Carlos walked up seeing Bosco sitting on the ground clutching his eyes in pain. Doc came up while Carlos stood back a little while Doc also kneeled beside the officer. "What's wrong?" Faith stood up. "The guy nailed him with pepper spray." She nodded over to where the man was handcuffed and unconscious. Carlos stepped over to the guy and pulled out some ammonia out of his medic bag. The man stirred awake and than jerked, confused to his surroundings. "Come on Bosco I'll clean your eyes out with some water." said Doc as he helped Bosco up and helped lead him to the back of the ambulance. Faith just stood there. She didn't know now what to do anymore. (Present) He stood there waiting for her to say something but all she did was look down now at her feet. He looked once down at his own and then looked back up. A tear was trickling down Faith's check. "What if he had shot me Faith, or you for that matter. If we were dead we sure is hell couldn't do much about it." He shook his head. "Just tell me Faith....why didn't you tell me, huh...why?" She didn't say anything, just kept her head down and looking away from Bosco's piercing eyes. "Faith...Faith look at me." Her head came up slowly the tears now one after another sliding fast. She couldn't give an answer. "Were partners Faith. You may not like it, hell you may not even like me as a person....but were still partners and that has to count for something," He closed his eyes and looked down and then said softly "all you had to do was tell me." He walked past her and began to unlock his car door. He didn't want to be around her right now. Hell she wasn't even speaking to him, so why should he just stand there pretty much talking to himself? He stopped and turned around. She was standing there looking at him with regret littered all over her face. "Please forgive me....I'm so sorry. I wish I had told you earlier, I wish I had listened to myself. But I can't change it now Boz. I can't, but I can wish you'd forgive me."
