Seajae was gone by the time Bosco awoke the next morning. The note on the night stand told him what he already knew. She was out chasing ghosts. Mueller had been dead now for nearly two years. Yet with one unexpected discovery he perpelled Bosco's wife into a living hell. A hell he was afraid either one of them was strong enough to pull her out of.

******

Faith sat holding Angel in her arms. The baby smiled at her so sweet. She was growing so fast. Soon she would be walking and talking. Faith had charished those things but missed most of them with her children. Over the last few months Faith had pondered a lot of things. Like what would of happened if she had kept the baby she had been pregnant with a few years ago. She would of been a widow with three children to support. She had her friends for support and she would make it and help raise all the little Boscorelli kids as they were helping in raising hers. Faith laughed wondering if all Bosco's babies will look like Sully.

*****

Seajae sat in front of her computer. There was no way she could track the componets of Mueller's school bomb. Or find out how many of these bombs he constructed in the eight weeks he was loose in New York. She studied the evidence from the park shelter and the bomb found at the school. They were both the same but different. She couldn't put a fingure on exactly what it was but she knew it was the key to the whole darn thing.

*****

Bosco got up and took a shower. He went to the kitchen. Faith was in the rocker feeding Angel. She had a huge smile on her face. It was the smile she saved for Auntie Faith. Somewhere in his little girls heart she knew her god mother needed that smile to brighten her day. So she saved it just for her.

"Today she kinda looks like Jimmy." Faith looked up and smiled at Bosco.

"Don't even go there Yokas. Seajae say anything to you before she left?"

"Nothing I can repeat in front of little ears. She was upset, needed some time to work this stuff out." Emily and Charlie were playing a video game at Faith's feet. It looked so right the four of them together. After all the other crap got taken care of in their lives he was going to find her a nice guy to settle down with,

"She should of talked to me. Last night she just clamed up and went on the damn porch and sat there staring into space. Not even the baby crying snapped her out of it."

"Do you really think there's more bombs just waithing to go off?"

"I honestly don't know Faith, I honestly don't know."

******

The man sat watching Seajae bang away at the computer key's. She was wired tight. An ash tray full of butts sat next to the key board along with several empty cups and cans.

"You still living on smokes and diet pepsi McBride." Seajae looked up. The man standing at the door had to be a ghost because she had given him up for dead five years ago.

"It's Boscorelli now."

"No way! God found a man to put up with your sorry ass," She stood up and went to the door ready to slap the smug look off the man's face but instead hugged him tightly.

"Where the hell has the CIA been hinding your ugly mug McKenzie? Or can't you say?"

"Here and there. So I heard we need to clean up some left over garbage."

"They think it's worthy now?"

"Oh yeah. They want you and this new husband of yours off their ass ASAP."

"There's something to celebrate. Let me make a few calls and we can start halling out the trash."

*******

"Boscorelli!" He answered the phone after the third ring.

"Are you naked?" Seajae closed her eyes. He wasn't in the mood to play games she could tell but she needed to try. His voice sofened when he aswered.

"Your never going to see me naked again if you don't get off the damn high horse your on and let your family and friends help you."

"So that means I get some tonight?"

"I haven't heard the magic words."

"Maurice, would you please help me clean this mess up so we can get on with our lives?"

"Was that so hard?"

"It killed me inside...but as long as I get to see you naked in the near future, it's well worth it. Can you set an extra place for dinner. Faith and the kids are still coming arn't they?"

"By the way speaking of naked next time...tell me Faith is in the apartment before you leave." Seajae closed her eyes a rubbed her temples.

"Oh God Bos you didn't?"

"Phyc...." He laughed. "Yeah there still coming. Who's the extra."

"Someone who can help us with this mess and just might bring a smile to our best friends face."

******

Calab watched as Seajae drove silently down the streets. She was down right glowing. He had knowen her for fifteen years and in all that time he had never once seen her look the way she did at this moment. Her eyes sparkeled, her cheeks full of color. She was happy after finding out the agencie sent him to help with her problem but then after her phone call she was exstatic.

"Where is she?"

"Who?"

"The moody, unpredictable, hot headed, maniac US Marshell I used to know?"

"I learned to control her. She only comes when called. I'm a wife, a mother and a darn good cook when she's not around."

"Are you saying...your finally in touch with your human side?"

"You act like I'm half alien or something. Calab, was I that bad?"

"But you were the best."

"Still am. Ask anyone. I haven't gotten soft. But my hard side is there when I need it. Mueller made me the bad ass I was. Bosco helped me realize that she didn't need to control my life."

"I'm so glad Seajae. I didn't want to say it then but now, seeing you happy and loved. I didn't like the physcotic bitch very much."

"Because she could kick your ass." She parked her car in front of her building.

"Let's go meet this miricle worker husband of yours."

******

Bosco liked Calab McKenzie from the moment he met him. He wasn't sure what it was but he liked him. And by look on Faith's face as the two talked he know she did too. The kids were watching a movie, the baby in bed, while Seajae and Bosco finnished the dishes Calab and Faith talked.

"Did I do good?"

"Ever see him naked?"

"If I did do you think he'd be sitting here?" Bosco had forgotten how Mueller had taken care of the men in her life.

"OH yeah. Well did you ever want to?" Seajae punched his shoulder. "OOww. What I'm just asking. You asked me about Faith several times."

"No, well maybe once but it was a stressful case." Bosco smiled, she was blushing.

"I won't tell if you won't?" He kissed her. Seajae took his face in her hands and deeped the kiss. The suds on her hands were left on his cheeks. She wrapped her arms around him and leaned into him, pushing him agaist the counter. Bosco cupped her rear end and pushed himself closer to her. The sound of clearing thoughts broght them back to earth. They looked up to see Calab and Faith. They looked at each other. All of them laughed. Bosco and Seajae had suds all over them.

"Can't leave them alone a for a minute can you?" Calab laughed.

"Ah..no. Hey will you guys watch the kids for a little while. Or should I ask if you can keep your hands off eachother for that long?"

"You know we can. But the question is why?"

"Calab and I are going down the street for cofee."

"We have plenty.." Seajae pounced on Bosco's foot. "Oooww that's the second time tonight woman."

"Have a good time. Stay out as late as you want the kids can crash here."

"We'll be back before lights out." The two left, smiling all the way.

*****

Seajae was on the porch smoking when Faith retured. She came out to the porch.

"Kid's asleep?"

"Yeah, Bosco's over there, He said you owe him big time." Seajae looked at her friend and smiled. "Sooooo..."

"Where have you been hinding this guy Seajae? He's awsome."

"I knew you two would hit it off. He is great isn't he."

"Why didn't you two ever?"

"You know my luck before... He's always been like a brother to me. I'm so happy for you Faith. I hope things work out."

"Me too. He said he wants to be permently placed some where close so he can keep an eye on you."

"That sounds like Calab." Seajae was so happy for her friends.

"Hey I better go and let Bosco get back here. " Faith got up. She hugged Seajae. "See you tomorrow."

"Bye sweety. Take care." Seajae got up and went into the bedroom and found the new Teddy she'd been saving for a night like tonight.

********

Bosco was nervous. He's never been that way around anyone especially Seajae. He stopped in the bathroom before going into the bedroom. He stripped his shirt off and sat on the edge of the tub and untied his shoes. He continplaited putting his shorts on but they didn't have a pocket to put the ring in. He settled for unbotting the top botten. He looked at himself in the mirror. "So this is what a love sick fool looks like." He laughed and headed for the bedroom.

******

Seajae was standing lighting a canlde on the dresser when she heard the door open. She turned an watched as Bosco walked in the room. He stopped and looked at her and smiled.

"God you clean up good Mary Sunshine." The red Teddy clung to her in all the right places. He walked up to her and kissed her, He wanted to hold her like this forever. Lock the door and let no one else in. "You are the most beautiful woman in the world."

"Ahhh Bosco you say nicest things to me. You make me feel beautiful." He stopped kissing her and backed her up till she was sitting on the bed. Bosco kneeled in front of her.

"I know this is two years in the making but I wanted to find something that was perfert, just like you," He pulled out the box and opened it. He set it down and took off the small gold band from her left fingure. Bosco replaced it with the most beautiful ring Seajae had ever seen. Tears rolled down her cheeks. "Do you like it?"

"Oh Bosco.....I...words can't describe how beautiful this is. I love it. "She wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him. He lost his balance and they both rolled to the floor. Niether cared because the passion that eruppeted couldn't stop a freight train.

******

The phone rang. Faith looked at the clock. It was nearly midnight. Her kids were safe and by the look on Bosco's face when he left they weren't going anywhere. She picked it up' "Hello"

"Were you sleeping?" Caleb's voice asked. Faith smiled.

"No just reading. Miss me already?"

"Would I sound to desperate if I said yes?"

"Not at all." They talked for a long time befor they both couldn't keep their eyes open another minute and the sun was coming up over the horizon.

*******

Bosco awoke long enough to lift his wife and himself on the bed and pull the covers over them both. The next time he awoke to his wife doing things he only read about in the articles he bought Playboy and she bought Cosmo for. This woman amazed him more with each passing day. He didn't know if it was possible but he loved her more then then day they married. She rocked his world to the very foundation. He hopped he did the same for her. Judging by the things she was doing to him now he rocked something for her. Bosco smiled, closed his eyes and enjoyed the attention his wife was so expertly giving to him,
