I was watching Bad Hair Day this weekend (you know where Tara shoots the guy in the hairdressers and his brother goes after her) and I got thinking what if he escapes from Prison a year later and Tara is forced to go into hiding with Bobby as her gaurd will they get the courage to confess their true feelings xx read and find out xxx its not going to be a long one like some of my others just a couple of chapters 3 tops x

"What do you mean Crazy Loco has escaped from prison" Tara asked

"He was being transferred and the van was hit by a black car, apparently the same black car that the shots were fired from the night you and Rob went to dinner with Jack, Sue and Lucy"

"So we don't think it was an accident then?" Myles observed, resulting in D shaking his head,

"It is thought the whole thing was planned, but that's not the worrying part. According to prison chit-chat he was very vocal about getting his revenge on the computer fed that not only murdered his brother but also set the trap that resulted in him being caught and we all know who that is" D answered

"Fine, so we'll set another trap and get him off the streets. I didn't let him dictate my life last time I'm not going to let him do it this time. He hasn't come anywhere near me. I've haven't received any threats. I did a security search on my laptop last night and everything was fine there was no evidence I'd been hacked."

"All the same, we're not taking any chances, Bobby pretend you are a magnet and Tara is a fridge. You will not leave her side until this guy is caught" Jack added

"I don't think so I'll go crazy. I can just about put up with him in the office never mind 24hrs a day. Now if you will all excuse me I have to talk to a snitch about the Drug Trafficking Case" Tara replied, grabbing her files, phone and bag from her desk, before leaving the bullpen

"Bobby!" Jack begin

"Yeah, Yeah I know between here and the car to convince her with my charm" Bobby added before heading out the door, Bobby ,taking the stairs, caught up with her exiting the lift, walking through the garage the pair stopped suddenly when they spotted her car

Bobby picked up his cell and called the bullpen

"D, hi it's me, we've got a problem, we need the security tapes from the parking garage someone, and I'm betting he's a tad CRAZY, has smashed Tara's car up and I mean smashed. The windows are smashed in, the doors are banged up, the lights, the trunk everything the car is a mess"

("How is she?")

"She's fine more angry than anything"

"Bobby" she called

"Yeah, Hang on D, she's found something"

Bobby walked over to Tara who was looking at a note taped to the twisted metal that used to be her driver side door, looking at the note he read it to D

"You were lucky to escape me the first time, this time however you will pay for what you did to me and my brother, you must know the saying 'an eye for an eye' well I believe in that saying, only in this case it will be 'a life for a life'. D, we need to get this guy"

With that Bobby hung up the phone and led an obviously angry Tara back up to the bullpen

"Got the tapes" Myles yelled as he re-entered the office

Putting them in they found where Sue and Tara exited her car, they we're not in the elevator two minutes before a gang of men started to smash up her car headed by Crazy Loco who wasn't even wearing a mask or disguise it was if he wanted them to know who it was.

Once they were satisfied the car was enough of a wreck, Gonzalez was seen to be writing a note and placing it on the door, finally before heading off he faced the camera and used his right index figure to trace a slow line across his throat before finally blowing a smarmy kiss towards the lens.

"So he's after me and before you say it I'm not going into hiding. I want the pleasure of catching this guy myself"

"Tara!" Ted raised voice came from the door "You were very lucky to escape last time; I'm not risking you getting hurt this time. You have two choices, one you head off for a nice vacation in Minnesota or two you go into a safe house, your choice"

"Ted please, no"

"Tara don't even attempt to argue. I've told you your options, your choice which one?"

"Fine I'll go to the safe house"

"Right now you have another choice, an agent will stay with you at all times, so make a choice Myles or Bobby?"

Tara looked at Ted pleading with him to change his mind "I suppose if I have to choose one of them I'll pick Bobby"

"Whoo hoo, always knew I was her favourite"

"Right you two go home, pack cases and make your way towards the safe house using these instructions and please be careful, the rest of you get this guy off the streets" Ted ordered

The team headed back to work as Tara and Bobby made their way towards her house, emerging fifteen minutes later with her bag and her cat. After calling by Bobby's house they were on their way to the safe house

"ARGH!" Tara yelled in frustration,

"Hey Shelia you ok"

"NO! Once again my life is being placed on hold because of this psycho and as a result I'm going to be stuck in a safe house"

"You're right Tara he is a psycho which is why it is safer for you to be in the safe house because the team, especially me doesn't want anything to happen to you. Now just sit there and enjoy the ride, we'll be on the road another thirty minutes at least"

Tara mind was whirling as he finished what did he mean by the 'especially me' line. Sure they had chemistry but apart from the kiss after the benefit last year neither one had acted on it or mentioned it since. Even though on some days all she wanted to do was confess how much she was in love with him, but never did, she was convinced he didn't feel the same way until now, but there was still that voice in the back of her head that was screaming 'concern for a co-worker'.

"Tara, we're here" Bobby explained, turning off the engine

"I can see that" she snapped still frustrated "Sorry, I'm just really frustrated"

"I know you are Shelia but this really is the safest option now come honey lets go explore our new home" He replied holding out his hand which to his and more importantly her own shock she took.

Entering the pair choose a room, dropped their bags on the beds took some time to explore the rest of the house.

Searching the upstairs they found not only two bedrooms and a bathroom but also a games room complete with video games and a few giant arcade game machines including Pac-man

"Oh I loved this game when I was younger" Tara added excitedly "My high score was on top for two years at a local arcade I even won an award"

"Is that what the face trophy thing on your fire place is?"

"Yep"

Walking back downstairs they found a spacious living room complete with a vast DVD collection and a few boards games; a quaint kitchen/dining area with a fully stocked fridge, freezer and cupboards; there was also an office with a telephone and secure internet access to the bull-pen and finally an indoor gym complete with rowing and running machines, a few weights and a selection of exercise balls. Heading outside Tara found the best feature of the house a huge garden and there in the middle bags of hay, looking around she spotted two buildings at the end of the garden

"Bobby" she called

"Yeah"

"What is in those building do you know?"

"Not a clue, stay here I'll go check them out, just encase"

Bobby walked slowly towards the buildings, gun in hand he slowly opened the door and found two big brown and white horses, calling Tara she made her way towards him

"Well I guess that explains the hay" she noted

"I love horses; I used to ride all the time in Australia"

"I've never done it"

"It's easy, tell you what tomorrow I'll give you your first lesson and now let's see what treasures the other building is hiding"

Walking through the next pen and closing the gate, Bobby opened the door to small shed, Tara screaming when its occupants ran towards her

"Tara what are you screaming at their just chickens" Bobby observed laughing hysterically as Tara ran away from the six chickens around her feet

"I hate chickens, always have always will, they scare me" she said running out of the pen trying to escape the pecking beaks

Bobby was laughing uncontrollably by know "You're not joking are you, you're really scared of chickens"

"It's not funny, my gran used to have chickens and one day when I was small I got pecked by one on my hand, left a nice mark and I still have the scar, ever since I've been scared stiff. Now will you please lock them back up"

Bobby nodded his head and proceeded to round up the chickens leading them back into the shed "Happy now" he asked still laughing

"Immensely thank you"

Still laughing Bobby headed back inside Tara following close behind.

"So Shelia, you hungry?" Bobby asked

"Starving and I just so happened to pick up a pizza from my freezer which I'm sure even you could cook in the oven while I unpack" she replied as she handed him the pepperoni pizza

"I should be able to, I'm not that useless"

"Bobby, one more thing before I head upstairs, you take the plastic wrapping off before you cook it" she said with a smirk as she sprinted up the stairs

"You better run" he yelled after her

Placing the unwrapped pizza in the oven, Bobby located the oven knob, after much searching, and turned on their dinner smiling widely when the light on the oven came on. He too then headed upstairs to unpack.

Ten minutes later the pair was back in the kitchen, the pizza cooking nicely in the oven. Tara hunted through the fridge and found a few salad leaves and some herb dressings and made herself a small salad to accompany her pizza knowing full well Bobby didn't do 'rabbit food'.

Bobby had been busy searching the cupboards and had located plates, glasses, cutlery and a bottle of pear and apple fizzy water. He had even managed to set the table quite nicely for dinner. Dinner passed, with general talk about pending cases. Once they had finished, they were both full and pleased she hadn't defrosted a desert.

"How about watching a movie or playing a board game?" Tara asked

"Sure, a movie sounds great"

Walking into the living room Tara looked at the DVD collection and choose Robin Hood Prince of Thieves for three reasons one she knew there was no way Bobby would sit through a chick-flick, two it had enough action to keep Bobby entertained but with a hidden chick-flick element and three Kevin Costner was hot.

Settling on the sofa placed her head on a pillow and got comfy, that was until Bobby came in and insisted he sat on the sofa with her as her cat had occupied the chair something he would thank Lola for later. Together they sat and watched the film, by the end of it he had placed in arm around her shoulders and she had slipped her head down to his chest as she fell asleep, Bobby laughing slightly when he heard her small snores.

Moving gently and slowly he picked her up and carried her up to her bed all the while ensuring not to bang on her head on the wooden frames of the door which to his surprise he managed to do, bending slightly he flicked the quilt and placed her in the bed, but when his arm got stuck he had no choice but to pull it free, resulting in her spinning over on the bed and waking with a jump

"Sorry!" he apologised, "I was bringing you to bed and my arm got stuck as a lay you down"

"Well now I'm awake, I can change and get myself to bed"

With a look of embarrassment on his face Bobby exited her bedroom heightening when he heard the muffled laughs of Tara coming from the room.

Changing and collapsing into his bed he couldn't believe what had happened, turning out his lights he tried to sleep but the sight of her flipping over as he moved his arm haunted his dreams.

Please review xx :-)
