Bosco looked at her. He didn't really know what else to say. He had said all that he felt needed to be out on the open, all the words that had been jumbled up like a broken jigsaw puzzle in his mind what seemed forever. But, He had proven his point, and now he really wasn't all too sure what to do next. "I'll see you tomorrow." He didn't give anytime to say anything, he unlocked his car jumped in and took off. A sad smile came to Faith Yokas's lips. She didn't know if that was a sign from her partner that he had forgiven her or not. All she knew at that point in time was she would find out tomorrow. Faith let out a long and drawn out sigh and then turned around and began to make her way back home. (Next Day) Faith Yokas walked in to the headquarters of the 55th Precinct. She smiled and said hi to a couple of coworkers but other then that she was trying to prepare herself for what kind of attitude she would meet in the locker room, the attitude of her partner Boscorelli. When she opened the door she found he wasn't even there yet. She just went to her locker and began to put on her uniform when he walked in. Faith couldn't help and wonder as Bosco passed her that if he was going to work with the Rookie just to get away from her again. Bosco had again beaten her somehow in changing, for he stood up and was about to walk out the door when he turned around and spoke to her. "Hey save you a seat, okay." He grinned and then turned around to almost smack into the Rookie. The Rookie hesitated and got out of Bosco's way. "Are we going to work together again today?" Bosco opened the door and called over his shoulder with a laugh, as the door slammed shut. "Yeah right. Maybe in my next life." Faith couldn't help it but a really small smile came to her lips as she laughed mentally inside. With that kind of remark from Boz that meant he had forgiven her, and maybe everything would be okay. Sure he hadn't said he had forgiven her, but that wasn't his style any way. All Bosco did was let on that he had without really coming out and saying it. Faith knew that Bosco was the type that had been taught to keep his feelings inside. She knew a lot of men where taught that and he happened to be another one of many whom she knew. Yeah it was hard on her, trying to figure out what his true feelings were. What really was going on in that mind of his, what made him do the things he did normally on every day that she had known him. She knew one day or another she would understand him even more but that road was too far up to even see. So with her eyes gleaming with a smile, made her way into the roll call room. Her partner was there, sitting in his normal seat. He gave a smile of his own and nodded with his head to the chair next to him, the chair she normally sat in. Faith sat down in her chair, next to Bosco. She looked over at him and then turned away not really sure what to say. Faith hated when she couldn't come up with a single word, a single discussion. Only when you just get over a big fight it's hard to think of a topic, difficult to think of something so you don't start getting into another brawl. "They placed a bet on us." Faith looked over at Bosco when he had spoken. She looked around unsure of what he meant. "What? Who placed a bet on us....what kind of bet?" "To see who would win the argument, Davis and Carlos and a couple others placed bets on us. So what I was thinking, we should get them back some how." Faith could see the form of a mischievous grin come across Bosco's features and yet she couldn't help fall for it and she leaned in closer to listen to his plan. (Later that day) As Faith picked out something to drink, Carlos came to stand beside her. She remembered what Bosco said to her so she kept her features clear, hiding the fact that she knew what Carlos was up to. "Hey Yokas." She looked over and gave a nice smile. "Hi Carlos." She picked up the drink she wanted and turned to walk away when Carlos caught up to her quickly and was now standing next to her at the cash register. He looked behind him to see if Bosco was any way near and with a soft whisper he asked her the question she was looking for. "So ummmm, heard that you and Bosco were fighting so ummmm," Carlos loked again behind him scared that Boz had sneaked up on him while he wasn't looking "so ummmm, who won the argument?" Faith wanted to just begin to laugh right there but she kept her cool and posture straightened. As she paid the clerk she turned around and rose one of her eyebrows into an arch. "I won of course, what do you think that Bosco would beat me?" Carlos was quick to answer. "Naaaa, I thought you, no. I knew you would win." He gave a nervous laugh and then turned back to the counter man and paid what he owed. Faith had already begun to walk away. She knew if she didn't get out right away, she would begin to let on that she knew. Faith got into the squad car where her partner was waiting for her. "Phase one complete." She spoke this while handing him his water and he than smiled. "You told him?" "What do you think?" Bosco looked past Faith to see Carlos walking out of the tiny shop. Carlos had a big grin on his face and he waved like a little kid to Faith and Bosco sitting in their car. "Yeah I think you told him. Now for phase two." (Another Couple Hours Later) Bosco was directing traffic. Faith was talking to the drivers. There had been a minor accident and they had been there what seemed forever. As Bosco directed another car Davis walked up to him. "Hey Davis, what up?" Davis shook his head and with a sigh he looked ahead at the traffic. "Oh nothing....you seem to be having fun." "Yeah great fun." Davis nodded and pretended to walk on as though he had something to do but then he walked back to Bosco who directed a Mini Van to the left. "Hey Bosco....I know that you and Faith were fighting and I was just wondering, who won this time?" Bosco let out a laugh as though it was not much important to him anymore. "I always win arguments especially against Faith. Why?" A small smile came to Davis's lips as Bosco clarified for him. To Davis that meant he had won the bet. But he was caught off guard when Bosco had asked him why he wanted to know. "Oh no reason at all. Just wanted to see. Hey thanks, see you back at the Precinct." *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*Due to the length of this story, I had to make it into two pages, sorry for any incovenience*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* |
