Seajae laid on the couch flicking channels on the TV. Bosco was sitting
on the floor next to her trying hard not to grab the remote out of her
hand. they had eaten dinner and gave Angle a bath. The little girl was
tired from a long day so she went to be early. Leaaving her parents with
nothing to do but channel surf.
"You want to go back to work don't you?" Bosco grabbed the remote and turned off the television.
"Yeah. I really want to. I'm strong as an ox mentally and physcally." She ran her hand though his hair. "But if you want me to stay out for a little longer."
"No. I think it's time. I just need to know if things are getting to tough to handle. Because I can't have you going off the edge again baby. I need you here for us."
"Oh Bosco. I love you and Angle so much. When I broke down I had all this emotion I didn't know what to do with. Now I know it's just what being loved is all about." She kissed him. "I will always be here for you and Angel. Always."
"I'm holding you to that baby." He kissed her. "Let's get to bed before you find where I hid the remote."
*************
First day's back were more frustraiting when you had paper work coming out of your ears. Seajae tried to consintrate on the work at hand but she couldn't seem to keep her mind on it. After fifteen more minutes she finally quit and went to go find something to get into. Christopher was sitting at his dest. She went and sat in front of him.
"I'm board."
"The thrity days of paper work isn't amusing you?" He continued to write whatever he was writing without looking up.
"Nope. It lost it's thrill about an hour into it."
"Boscorelli what would you like me to do to change your state of bordum. Drill up some business for you?"
"Hey that would be so cool of you. Just make it on the not so grisley side for me. My stomach ain't what it used to be." Jason finaal looked up.
"Any word on the woman you and Dorhaty found?"
"Still in ICU. No sign of they baby." Seajae tapped her pen on the desk. He grabbed it way.
"You annoy me just as much as your husband sometimes."
"Yeah and for that I'm sorry." She smiled.
"Go take your dinner break with him. They called out about five minutes ago at the cafe down the street. Keep both of you out of trouble." Jason went back to his paper work. Seajae got up and wald out, stopping at the door.
"You really can be nice when you want to be you know that?"
"Whatever Boscorelli. Get out of here."
**********
Seajae walked into the diner and found Bosco and Fiath sitting with Sully, Ty, Alex , Kim and Doc. She pulled up a chair and sat down next to her husband.
"Hi guys." She leaned over and kissed her husban.
"I thought you were piled under a crap load of paperwork?"
"Jason decided I needed a break from the grinde." She stole a french fry from Bosco's plate. "I swear the man is growing a heart in a jar someplace." They laughed.
"You heard from Benson today?" Bosco asked.
"No but I got in late and I never did tell her I was heading back to work today."
"You want something to eat or are my fries enough for you." He laughed.
"I'm not hungry but if could get me an ice tea I will be forever at your mercy."
"You already are woman." He motioned the waitress and ordered her tea. The friends talked for the rest of the hour. Catching up on things and joking with each other. Everyone got up to leave and Seajae followed Bosco and Faith to their car. Faith got in leaving Bosco to talk to his wife. She knew he had been worried about her since the shift started.
"What's wrong, husband of mine?" He leaned agaist the car and looked at her.
"Nothing. I just don't want you over doing it."
"How can I overdo paper work?"
"You know what I mean." They both had felt it. It was an energy in the air that warned them that things could wrong, fast. Neither one of them spoke of it but it was there, hanging in front of them.
"Be careful." She touched his hand. "I can't do this without out you Boscorelli. Don't make me."
"Same goes for you." He leaned over and kissed her. "Keep your head on straight and don't pull all that hair our doing paper work."
"I won't" She waved to Faith and headed back to the station. Her mind clouded with her caseload and other things that she need to clear up. She didn' see Jimmy coming toward her until his hands grabbed her shoulders stopping her.
"You okay?" She looked up and snapped out of her daze.
"Yeah." Seajae shook of the chill that went down her spine. Jimmy..something about him. She closed her eyes.
"Seajae? Hey.." Opening her eyes everything was in focus.
"Sorry, off in my own little world." She smiled.
"Yeah. That's so not like you. Are you sure your okay?"
"I'm fine Jimmy."
"Okay. Talk to you later." He looked at her worried if he should stick around or at least walk her the half a block to the station. He watched her go and then turned and headed back to the fire station. Something wasn't right with his friend and he wished he could figure it out.
***********
An hour later Seajae snapped like the third pencil in the last hour and looked up from her paper work. She had a sinking feeling in her gut as she looked out the barred window and saw the ambulance not in the fire house across the street. She got up and put on her jacket and headed across the street. DK was sitting outside untagling some rope.
"Where's Jimmy?"
"Out on a call."
"All the rigs are here."
"He went with Kim on the bus. Carlos got lost somewhere with Alex and they had to go."
"Where DK. Give me the address." DK got up and headed to the office and grabbed a printout of the last call.
"Something wrong Seajae?"
"God I hope not." She ran to her car and pulled out hoping to god her gut was lying to her.
"You want to go back to work don't you?" Bosco grabbed the remote and turned off the television.
"Yeah. I really want to. I'm strong as an ox mentally and physcally." She ran her hand though his hair. "But if you want me to stay out for a little longer."
"No. I think it's time. I just need to know if things are getting to tough to handle. Because I can't have you going off the edge again baby. I need you here for us."
