Bosco watched Faith as she took the statement from the stores owner. He was trying to listen and write down a witness statement but he couldn't keep his eyes off of Faith. God this was so messed up. Maybe she was right. Maybe they couldn't make this work. An hour later they were back on the road. Bosco pulled into an empty parking lot. He was bound and determaned to work it all out.
"So on the scale of one to ten. Ten being the best. What do you think our chances are?" He looked at Faith. She turned to him with a look that she saved for the bad guys.
"What?"
"Well I thought it I knew how much effort your going to put into this relationship...."
"Effort...your making this sound like a test."
"Isn't it? You seem to think I can't commit to this. And granted I have given you a million reasons not to trust that I can."
"A million and one. Bosco, I've been with the same man for fifteen years. You've been with what like forty or fifty in the last five. How can I campare to that?"
"Compare. Faith I never..." He stopped and laid his head agiast the back of the seat. "Yes I guess I have compared you...but not like you think." Bosoco stared out the wind shield. "The woman I dated...I always looked for peices of you in them. Maybe not at first, but if it got a little seriouse." He didn't tell her that more then once he called out her name in the night, leaving the woman beside him wondering who she was. "None of them were you Faith. None could compare to you."
"Bosco...god you know all the right words to say." She got out of the car and started walking.
"Faith....Faith get back in the car. Come on. Faith." He got out and ran after her. "Faith....damn it I have never lied to you." He grabbed her arm. "I'm not going to start now. I'm scared shitless but I'm willing to try." He got down on his knee's in front of her. "Give me a chance. Let me prove to you we can make this work." Faith looked at him. Maurice Boscorelli was on his knee's in front of her begging her to continue a relationship with her.
"Bosco get up. Someone will see you."
"Not till you say you will give this a shot." He looked into her eyes. "I swear you won't regret it Faith."
"I'm holding you to that Bosco. Now get up before somebody sees you." He smiled his hundred watt smile and got to his feet.
"You won't be sorry Faith. I will make you the happiest woman on the planet."
"Let's not get to carried away mister." She walked back to the car and got in. Bosco right behind her.
"You want to go to dinner?"
"I'm not hungry." Faith looked dowm at her shoes. "Bosco?"
"Yeah."
"I'm sorry for doubting you. It's just...Fred he never made me feel like you do. I never.....I never counted the minutes till I saw him again like a do you. He never made me want him like I want you. You make feel things that I haven't felt in a long time."
"Thank you for sharing that Fiath." He turned to her and took her hands in his. "I won't hurt you. Not ever. I'm not Fred. And well like I said you know my rep and you know me. I never cared about anyone like I care about you Faith. I mean that. We'll work this all out and take it one step at a time." He looked around to see if they were still alone in the parking lot. He leaned over and kissed her. "One step at a time." Bosco turned back and started the car. "You hungry now?"
Faith smiled. She was hungry all right but not for dinner. "Yeah, I could eat. What's on the menu?" She glanced at Bosco who in all his wisdom must of been reading her mind.
"Faith Marie Yokas you siren you." He put the car in drive and headed back out on the street.
