Kim woke up to the sound of a door opening. She was shocked to see Bosco walking in with a tray of food. Bosco set the tray down and sat next to her. He knew she was hurt over what Jimmy did. He wanted to try and cheer her up at least a little. He looked up at her. Kim smiled at Bosco. She couldn't believe he actually made her breakfast in bed. He was real sweet. She was glad she ran into Bosco last night. He helped her out a lot.
"Thank you Bosco. This means a lot to me. I'm actually happy you found me last night," Kim said gratefully. Bosco made her feel a lot better. She could see herself talking to him more and them becoming friends.
"It was no problem. I wanted to make sure you were okay and had a place to stay. I know you were upset and hurt. I just couldn't leave you there sitting by yourself," Bosco replied. He didn't like seeing her cry. She looked seconds away from a breakdown last night. He wanted to make sure she would be okay and had a place to stay. She was in a bad state of mind when he found her in front of the bar.
"You're sweet you know that," Kim said gently. She smiled at him again. Bosco was good at getting her to smile. He didn't even have to try.
"Don't tell anyone. I have a reputation to uphold," Bosco said seriously. He didn't need the guys at the station finding out about this. He would never live it down. He's worked hard to get his reputation.
"Your secret is safe with me. I promise I won't tell anyone," Kim replied. She laughed when she noticed Bosco blushing. He was so cute when he blushed. They were interrupted when they heard someone knocking on the door. Bosco got up to answer it and was surprised to see Faith standing there.
"Get dressed. We have to go find someone," Faith said. She pushed her way into Bosco's apartment and saw him look at his watch. They had to look for Kim. Jimmy came to her worried and near tears. She just had to help him find her. She felt bad for Jimmy. He was so worried about his wife.
"Who exactly are we looking for?" Bosco asked. This had better be important. He was tired and he was having fun spending time with Kim. He loved making her laugh and smile.
"We have to look for Kim. Jimmy is worried about her. He said he couldn't find her anywhere and she didn't come home last night. I told him we'd go look for her," Faith explained. She watched Bosco shake his head. He had a disgusted look on his face which was confusing her.
"Kim's fine. Jimmy can stop the act," Bosco said coldly. Jimmy had no right to try and act worried about Kim. He was the one who caused her to leave. Jimmy slept with her sister and now all of a sudden he was worried about her.
"How do you know she's okay?" Faith asked. There was no way Bosco could know that. She knew he and Jimmy hated each other, but this was Jimmy's wife that was missing. They needed to find her.
"She's here. She walked in on Jimmy sleeping with her sister and she ran out. I found her sitting outside of a bar crying hysterically and I brought her here. She didn't want to go back home last night," Bosco explained. He still felt bad for Kim. He couldn't believe Jimmy was acting all worried now. He didn't care last night when he was sleeping with her sister.
"Please tell me nothing happened between you two," Faith said. She couldn't believe Jimmy slept with Kim's sister. She felt so bad for him when he said he couldn't find her. She hoped Kim was okay. No one deserved this.
"Nothing happened. She slept in my bed and I slept on the couch. All we did was talk," Bosco answered. He looked at Faith. He was telling her the truth. She should know that. He always told her about the girls he slept with even though she didn't want him to.
"I'm sorry for asking. She was just in a bad state of mind last night. I know you're not like that. I guess I'll tell Jimmy there's no need to look for her," Faith said.
"Yeah you do that. I'm going to go check on her and giver her a ride to work," Bosco replied. He closed the door after Faith and went back to Kim.
"That was Faith. Jimmy asked her to help him look for you. He gave her some sob story about how you didn't come home last night and that he was worried about you," Bosco said. He sat back down next to Kim. He still couldn't believe that Jimmy was trying to play the victim.
"I should be leaving though. I have to get to work. Thanks for everything Bosco. It really does mean a lot to me," Kim said softly. She couldn't believe Jimmy was looking for her now. It didn't occur to him to look for her last night after he slept with his sister.
"Do you want a ride? I need to be leaving for work soon to," Bosco asked. He hoped she wanted a ride. He didn't want her to leave yet. He liked having her as company. He knew Faith was going to ask for the rest of the details when he got to work. There wasn't really much to tell her.
"That would be nice. The firehouse is kind of far from here," Kim replied. She did like this side of Bosco. How could no one have known Bosco had a nice side to him? She didn't understand why he didn't want people knowing about it.
Kim got out of Bosco's car and walked into work. She saw Jimmy staring at her. She still wasn't ready to talk to him. The image of him sleeping with her sister was still in her head. It was hard to get out. She didn't want anything to do with him right now. Probably not for the rest of her life.
"Kim where have you been? I was looking all over the place for you. Was that Bosco who dropped you off? What are you doing with Bosco?" Jimmy asked. He followed Kim up to the locker room.
"What were you doing with my sister last night?" Kim shot back. Jimmy had no right to ask her anything. She was the one that should be asking the questions. She already knew all she needed to know. Jimmy obviously didn't care about her as much as she cared about him. She was such a fool for believing Jimmy actually loved her. The only reason he asked to marry her was because of Joey. It sucks that it took her this long to realize it though.
"What are you talking about?" Jimmy asked nervously. Obviously Kim knew what happened. He was such an idiot. Kim would never forgive him or let this go.
"I'm talking about when you slept with my sister. Yeah I walked in and saw. I guess you were too busy to notice," Kim yelled. She finished changing in record time and stormed down the stairs. She noticed Jimmy was following her.
"Can't you take a hint. I don't want you near me. Just leave me alone. I expect you to be out of my place by ten tonight. I don't care where you go or who you go with. I want you out," Kim screamed. She walked farther away and he was still following her. She looked around trying to find a place to sit.
"Kim just listen to me please. I know I screwed up and I'm sorry. It'll never happen again. I love you," Jimmy pleaded. He followed Kim into the next room.
"No, I won't listen to you. You're the one who slept with my sister and screwed things up, not me. I don't have to do anything. I want you out of my house and out of my life," Kim shot back with tears in her eyes. She rushed out of the firehouse and leaned up against a wall. She didn't want to bring this to work. It all just came out. She composed herself quickly and walked back in ignoring Jimmy. She didn't realize everyone had seen what was going on until now. She just wanted this day to be over with.
"Kim, maybe you should take the day off. I can get someone to fill in for you," Doc suggested. Kim was not in the right state of mind to be working today. She just needed a break and to get some rest.
"NO I'm fine Doc," Kim replied. She didn't want to go home. She wasn't ready to deal with her sister yet.
"Just take the day off and clear your head," Doc told her. He watched her leave. Jimmy was a jerk for doing this to her. She didn't deserve this.
