Summary: On a night after a long battle with divorce, Bosco and Faith sleep together. Only to wake up and he doesn't have the same feelings for her that she has for him. What will she do after he tells her the news?

Morning breaks through the window shade into the dark apartment bedroom. The queen size bed is against the wall that is across from the wall where the window is at. The two people under the black comforter start stirring and he moves the blanket from his eyes. Bosco rubs his eyes and looks around the room as he sits up and runs his hands through his hair. He looks at the body lying next to him and remembers what happened to him last night. It had been a celebration that she was now single. She didn't want to go out celebrating that she was going to be alone for the rest of her life but he wanted to and cheer up her mood.

The divorce had hit Faith hard; she never expected it. They had been married for nine years and he came to her job one day and in the middle of the stationhouse told her, very loudly, that he was seeing someone and wanted a divorce. He packed up all of her stuff for her and told her to come get it as soon as she could. He treated her like a dog and Bosco was there for her the whole time. He let her keep her belongings at his house while she stayed with some friends around the city. She got into a nice studio apartment after a couple weeks. She got herself an attorney with his help also so they could figure out what was going to be split. There were no kids involved so it was a simple divorce that was finished after a month. They both got half of what they bought together and Fred had to move out of their apartment since the lease was in both of their names.

Last night Bosco took Faith around New York City to a bunch of bars to have fun and get her mind of being divorced. The two had gotten a little tipsy around two o'clock in the morning when he invited her back to his place to have a beer and keep the party going. The flirtation started after three beers and a Faith Hill song. Soon they were dancing in his apartment and the next minute they were in bed together, ripping clothes off.

What the hell have I done?

Bosco thought to himself as he climbed out of bed without any clothes on. After a couple hours of loud passionate love making, the two had passed out most likely because of the liquor and work out.

I don't want any kind of relationship and I hope I made that clear to her last night… I have no idea what was said or anything. I just remember coming back here and drinking a bunch of beers. Then she turned on that damn song… god what is it? Man… I Feel Like a Woman. I hate that song but the way she was dancing to it, the way her hips were swinging side to side and the way she was looking at me, I couldn't resist. She was seducing me with that look. It wasn't all my fault. She was guilty too.

His thoughts were interrupted when he saw her stirring and stretching her arms over her head. Faith yawned and opened her eyes then looked around the room. "Hey," she said when her eyes landed on Bosco. He was standing next to his closet putting his jeans and socks on.

"Hey," he replied and stood up straight and cleared his throat. Bosco grabbed a shirt from a drawer and looked down at the ground.

"Why are you up so early? Where are you going?" She asked in a sleepy voice after looking at the clock.

"I....uh…" He stuttered and cleared his throat again. "I was just putting my clothes on." He put the t-shirt over his head and glanced at her once it was on.

"What's the rush huh?" She asked, wrapping the sheets around her body and walking over to her. Bosco looked away as she slid her hand around his neck and pulled him into a kiss. Bosco's eyes were still open and he was looking at her as she kissed him. It wasn't until she opened her eyes that she saw something was the matter. "What's wrong Bos?"

He let out a sigh and rubbed his chin. "Listen…. Faith…" He started and stared at her confused face. "I like you… you're my partner and…. my best friend. " He paused and looked down at the floor. "I don't know what you wanted out of this… what we had… I mean last night was good and everything… but I just don't want this to turn into something. I'm not ready for any kind of a relationship… You understand right?"

Faith was just standing there with a stunned look on her face. She couldn't believe what she had just heard. She looked at him a lot differently then she had last night. He had been telling her all these lies before he took her to bed with him. She found herself standing there, shaking her head as she glared back up at him. Faith took a deep breath and nodded. "You son of a bitch." She whispered and bit her lip a little. "Fine." She turned around and walked back over to the bed and tried to gather herself so that she didn't cry in front of him.

"Are you mad?" He asked softly and followed her around the room as she picked up her clothes, putting on her under garments as she grabbed them. Of course she's mad dumb ass, how could you ask her that? He told himself and grabbed her arm. "Faith, would you please talk to me?"

"No! Let go of me!" She ripped her arm out of his hold and pushed him back. "You have screwed up a lot Bosco but this takes it over the top!" She screamed as she slipped her sexy v-neck shirt on.

"There was more than one of us in that bed last night Faith!" He shouted back at her.

"I wasn't the one making the promises though no was I?!" She grabbed her leather pants and slid them up her legs. "Stay the hell away from me Bosco! I can't believe this!"

"Listen to me!" He grabbed her arm again and held her by the shoulders. "Look at me! I love you as my partner! You are my best friend all right! I'm sorry that you thought I had led you on but I'm just not that kind of guy and you knew it. What made you think that I would change?!"

She groaned and slapped him hard across his face. Bosco's head was forced to the right and stayed there as she yelled. "Because of all the shit you were saying to me! I thought that maybe you had a heart! Or you had grown out of the frat boy thing! But I guess I'm another notch for you Bosco!" She grabbed her jacket and walked out of the bedroom. "Stay the hell out of my life, you useless son of a bitch!"

Bosco finally lifted his head when she left the room. He watched her as she said the last sentence. He heard her slam the door and one of his pictures fall to the ground because the glass broke. He let his head fall back and he cursed to himself.

It was the beginning of the third watch shift. Bosco was in the locker room, standing in front of his locker strapping his bullet proof vest on. Davis was standing a couple lockers down from him putting his uniform tie on as he talked to his partner, Sully, who was on the other side of the lockers sitting down and buttoning up his shirt. Faith busted through the door and ran into Gusler. Her body was like a cement block, she didn't budge but he fell into the lockers. Some of the guys snickered at him then looked over at Faith. Her face was red as she quickly got dressed and slammed things around.

"Whoa Yokas slow down. We got about," Davis looked at his watch, "10 minutes." He gazed back over at the officer who wasn't listening to a word he was saying. She was just determined to get her utility belt on and her shirt tucked in. "Faith?"

"What?!" She shouted and all the cops in the locker room stopped and looked at her. "What the hell do you want Davis?!" She slammed her locker shut and stormed off to roll call. The men and women officers were looking at each other oddly. Gusler stood up and wiped down his uniform. "Wow," he said kind of annoyed and embarrassed.

"What the hell was that about?" Sully asked as he walked around the lockers and stood next to Bosco. He looked up and shrugged, not wanting to tell them what happened earlier that morning. "I mean you took her home last night after Haggerty's. What happened? Did you piss her off or something?"

Bosco shrugged again as he buttoned up his shirt. "No I didn't piss her off." He lied and looked down at his uniform shirt. "I drove her home and we talked for about an hour then I left. That's it. Maybe she's just depressed because she misses Fred or her kids or something. I have no idea." He slammed his locker shut.

Davis stood next to his partner as he tucked his shirt in. "No this has to be something big. I mean she's been without Fred for a month now and she hasn't been like that. Why would she just yell at me in front of everyone?"

"I don't know why you're asking me! I'm her partner! Not her keeper or husband!" He put his gun in his holster. "Why don't you talk to her or something?"

"I don't wanna talk to that." Sully replied and grabbed his baton and hat and walked out of the locker room with his partner and Bosco. They all looked over and saw her talking to Swersky. Her face was still red and he had his arms crossed over his chest. Davis and Sully kept walking and Bosco stopped so he could hear what she was saying. He thought maybe she was telling their boss what happened that morning.

"Let's talk in my office." Swersky said softly and the two walked back to his large office. "Shut the door." He demanded and she slammed the door shut then put her hands on her hips as she paced. "Now what happened?"

"Nothing Lieu… I told you! I just don't want to work the streets today!" My head is not in the job and I'm not capable to work out there!"

He stared at her oddly as she yelled. "Talk to me," he said in a calm tone. "Tell me what's going on."

She snorted and continued to pace as she looked at him sideways. "Just because you're dating my mom doesn't mean you act like a father to me." She realized how rude she was being to him. "Sorry Lieu… I just-"

"Save it." He said, putting his hand off then lifted himself off the chair he was sitting in behind his desk. "You can ride the front desk with me today then. I'll put Boscorelli with Gusler in 55 David." He said, still looking at her face. "Sound good to you?" She nodded and opened the door to go to roll call and he followed her.

All the officers were standing in the roll call room since the painters were there painting the walls new colors. Faith was in the back of the room with her arms crossed across her chest. She was glaring at the back of Bosco's head as their boss explained what was going on in the streets. Bosco could feel her staring at him and slowly turned his head to meet her gaze. She quickly turned away and ran her hand over her ponytail. He winced at the sight of her glare then turned back and looked down at his shoes. He knew that it was going to be a long shift.

"All right… now… there's a new line up for today. Boscorelli and Gusler you'll be in 55 David. Yokas is gonna be on the desk with me." Swersky said and Bosco quickly looked at Faith who was rubbing the back of her head.

"Are you serious?" Bosco asked, not taking his eyes off his partner.

"Very." Swersky replied and looked at Faith who was staring at the ground. "Be safe out there everyone."

The officer's marched out of the roll call room to get their radios. "What the hell was that about?!" Bosco asked Faith just as she was about to leave the room too. He slammed the door and stood in front of her.

"Get the hell out of my way." She said softly, looking right through him. Faith glared up at his face and her eyes narrowed. "What you think we were going to be cool after all the shit you did to me?!"

"Faith, really? You're gonna try to be the innocent victim here? I still don't understand how you knew that I'm not one for relationships and you were still fucking my brains out last night and screaming for more!" He shouted in her face and she turned her head and took a step back. "Tell me how this all makes sense?!"

She turned her head and glared back up at his face and shook her head. "Because you…" She paused and cleared her throat as she tried to choke this out. "You told me that you loved me Bos." She said in a whisper and his face softened as he uncrossed his arms. "You don't even remember that do you?" She didn't want him to answer. "You brain-washed me into thinking that you may actually have feelings or something." She shook her head and blinked her tears away. "We can't be partners again Bos. Not after this. Now get the hell out of my way and stay out of my way." She bumped his shoulder as she walked past him to the locker room. Bosco just stood there thinking about her statement. He knew better then to say he loved some girl. He ran his hand over his face and let out a sigh as he went to go get a radio and find Gusler.

The shift had gone by slowly for Bosco. He hated working with Gusler because he was slow and didn't do things like his regular partner. Bosco hated to admit it but he missed Faith that day. He walked into the Precinct and past the front desk, not seeing her there. He had been in a couple times with a prisoner and when he told her or Swersky what the person had done, she either glared at him or ignored him. It killed him that she couldn't just get past their latest dilemma and move on. Bosco walked into the locker room and she wasn't there either. Sully and Davis were though and they were getting dressed into their civvies.

"Hey, has anyone seen Yokas?" Bosco asked as he unbuttoned his shirt and took his vest off. He knew that she hadn't gone home because her duffel bag was on the bench where her locker was.

"She's downstairs in the weight room. Beating the crap out of the bag." One officer said. He had just come from the weight room and was wiping sweat from his forehead.

"Thanks John." Bosco replied and walked out of the locker room.

When I, thought I knew you
Thinking, that you were true
I guess I, I couldn't trust
'Cause your bluff time is up
'Cause I've had enough
You were, there by my side
Always, down for the ride
But your, joy ride just came down in flames
'Cause your greed sold me out of shame, mmhmm

There was a stereo in the room and it was behind Faith. Bosco came around the corner and stopped in the doorway when he saw her. He was in shock of how much emotion she was putting into this. Faith standing kicking and hitting the punching bag with all her might. She only had a pair of shorts on and a sports bra. Her hair was down and it was drenched with her sweat. He didn't want her to see him because he thought that she would turn around and start hitting and kicking him because he was the one who made her angry.

After all of the stealing and cheating
You probably think that I hold resentment for you
But, uh uh, oh no, you're wrong
'Cause if it wasn't for all that you tried to do
I wouldn't know just how capable I am to pull through
So I wanna say thank you

Davis walked up behind Bosco to ask him something when he looked over and saw Faith too. Bosco glanced back at his colleague and they both shook their heads and gazed back at Faith. She had so much anger inside of her and for what reason. Davis still had no idea what was wrong with her. She hadn't really said as much as two words to him all day after the incident in the locker room. Sully came around the corner to say good bye to his partner and Bosco when he stopped and looked at Faith. The two looked back at him and he just shook his head and watched as she kicked the bag, her sweat flying off of her body.

'Cause it makes me that much stronger
Makes me work a little bit harder
It makes me that much wiser
So thanks for making me a fighter
Made me learn a little bit faster
Made my skin a little bit thicker
Makes me that much smarter
So thanks for making me a fighter.

"Whoa." Sully mumbled and both officer's kind of looked at him again and slowly nodded. "If it's Fred that's made her this way, I feel sorry for him." He kind of laughed and patted both of their backs. "See you guys tomorrow." He shook his head and headed off home. Davis leaned against the opposite door frame that Bosco was and continued to watch her. He didn't know what it was but she was interesting to watch as she punched the bag. He boxed a little here and there but she looked like she had been doing this for a while. He looked down at Bosco and he had an odd look on his face like he was concerned or something.

Oh, ohh
Never, saw it coming
All of, your backstabbing
Just so, you could cash in
On a good thing before I realized your game
I heard, you're going around
Playing, the victim now
But don't even begin
Feeling I'm the one to blame
'Cause you dug your own grave

Bosco couldn't believe he caused her so much pain. He thought that they were having fun that night and it wouldn't be that big of a deal. Things would be a little awkward in the morning but they would both agree that he was helping her out because she needed it. He knew that she hadn't had sex in a while because Fred had been with his squeeze for a couple of months now and written Faith off a long time ago. But no, now there was all this bad blood between them. He didn't want to blame himself because she knew what he was like when she climbed on him the night before. She's overreacting, he thought.

Faith had her back to the men and had no idea they were standing there, watching her. She was too busy visualizing Bosco's face being the back and trying to get her best kick and punch in. When the song stopped, the radio cut off and she took her gloves off and stretched her fingers. Faith noticed someone in the room and looked over, seeing the two men standing there. Davis shook his head with a smile and walked back to the locker room.

Bosco stood there staring at her and she just stared back. Faith grabbed gloves and a towel and went to walk past him but he grabbed her arm. She smacked his hand away and pushed him without a word.

"What the hell is going on with you two?" Davis asked when Bosco came back to the locker room and Faith went to the showers.

"If you buy, I'll tell you over a drink." Bosco replied and Davis shrugged.
