Hit and Run
Chapter 5
Alex and Ty were sitting in the coffee shop at Mercy Hospital. Alex had wanted to stop in and check on Kim and Jimmy before heading to work. "Thanks for last night," Alex said looking over her coffee cup, as Ty played with her fingers across the table.
"Anytime, Alex. You know that right?" said Ty. Alex nodded and took another sip of coffee, thinking of last night.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
They had met up after Ty's shift last night and ended up back at his apartment. Nothing had happened - he was just 'there' for her. They ate a light dinner and stretched out on his couch and just talked.
Carlos came in around 5:00 a.m. and saw the two of them lying with each other on the couch, sound asleep. He threw the blanket that was on the back of the couch over them before heading off to get some sleep. Alex heard a noise that woke her (Carlos shutting his door) and looked at Ty, who was sleeping so peacefully. She felt so safe here with him, his arms wrapped around her. She listened to the steady rhythm of his breathing and thought back to when she was a little girl and had a nightmare. Her father would come into her room and lay down alongside her until she started to feel better. She smiled, remembering that he was always the one that fell asleep first and that the rhythm of his breathing was what soothed her back to sleep. "God, I miss him so much," she thought as she drifted back to sleep beside Ty.
It was 7:00 a.m. when the sun finally maneuvered through the windows and shone directly in Ty's eyes. He awoke with a start because it was as if someone had turned on a flashlight aimed right at his eyes. "What's wrong?" Alex said, alarmed at his sudden movement.
"Nothing. Sorry I woke you up," he said stretching. She glanced over to the clock and saw what time it was. "That's okay," she said as she started to get up and let out a groan. She hadn't realized how tense her whole body was during last night's ordeal until she had a chance to relax. Sleeping on the couch didn't help either. "God! I feel so old," she said straightening up.
"I'm gonna grab a shower if that's okay with you," Alex said as she headed down the hall to the bathroom.
"Sure. I'll make us some breakfast and then I'll take a shower too. Unless you want some help in that department," he said with a smirk on his face.
"That's entirely up to you, but I'll skip breakfast. I want to get over to the hospital to see Kim before I have to get to work. Are those clothes still here that I left a few weeks ago?" she called over her shoulder.
"Yeah. Top drawer on the left," Ty answered her as he finished getting the coffee started.
They both heard a loud thumping on the hallway wall, followed by Carlos' voice. "Hey! I'm trying to sleep here!" Alex and Ty looked at each other, neither one realizing that Carlos had come home. They both laughed and yelled back, "Sorry!"
Alex got her stuff and headed into the bathroom. She turned on the shower and let the hot water work out the kinks in her muscles. A few moments later she felt a presence in the room with her and Ty got in the shower behind her. He wrapped an arm around her from behind and joined her under the hot water, holding a cup of coffee in front of her to take a sip. He reached over and put the cup down on the counter. He grabbed the soap and started at her shoulders, slowly working his way around to her front and then down. Alex let out a moan of pleasure as she felt Ty behind her. She turned around and took the soap from him, and started the process on him. Neither said a word as they slowly and completely satisfied each other.
After about an hour, they emerged from the bathroom, Ty with a towel wrapped around his waist and Alex dressed. They heard the television on in the living room and looked down the hallway to see Carlos drinking coffee and eating cereal out of the box. He just looked back at them with a sneer. "Let me know when you leave so I can have some peace and quiet. And I hope you cleaned the shower when you were done," he said sarcastically. Alex blushed and Ty just laughed. They both went into Ty's room to finish getting ready.

"What?" Ty asked as he looked at the smile on her face. "Just thinking about this morning," she said, starting to laugh again. "Carlo was really pissed," she finished, standing up to head out to work.
"Yeah, well.... I was thinking about that. Maybe he should take your apartment and you should move into mine," he said, looking at her with a serious look on his face. "It would be a lot easier and then Carlos could get a good night's sleep and not be so cranky," he finished, standing up and walking out with her.
"Hmmm. Sounds like a good idea, Junior," she said playfully as she tickled him and he jumped, almost knocking over one of the waitresses along the way.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Ty parked his truck and he and Alex got out, kissed and headed to their respective buildings. "Be careful," Ty called over to her, walking backwards toward the door to the station house. "You too," she called back over her shoulder. Ty continued walking backwards, watching Alex go into the firehouse for her shift. He walked right into someone and turned to apologize.
"Davis!" yelled Bosco angrily as he held his cup of coffee away from him as it spilled over his hand.
"Sorry, Bos," Ty said as he picked up Bosco's coffee-soaked newspaper from the ground and handed it to him.
"Great! Just watch where you're goin' will ya!" he grumbled.
"What's wrong with you today?" Ty asked innocently.
"Oh, I don't know, Davis. Maybe it's because Faith's gotta ride with Shore again tonight and I'm stuck by myself again," he said angrily.
"Oh," said Ty, sorry that he had asked. "Well, how much longer is that supposed to be for?"
"I think Hutchins is going on vacation after tonight, so that'll free-up Jones to ride with Shore," he shrugged, hoping that after tonight he'd be back with Faith.
"Well, it's only one more night, right?" said Ty as the two officers entered the locker room to change for roll call. "Yeah, but I just have this bad feeling about Faith being out there alone," Bosco explained to Davis.
"She's not alone, Bos. She's with Shore," Davis offered, hoping to make his friend feel a little better.
"Yeah, well Shore's a mess. Look what happened to his partner," Bosco said. Just then Faith walked into the locker room to change. "Hey guys," she said casually. Bosco couldn't believe how much he missed her. Now that things were starting to pick up for them as a couple, he didn't want to spend one minute more than he had to away from her. She looked over at him and he could tell she was feeling the same way. Ty finally finished getting changed and headed out to roll call, leaving Bosco and Faith the only two in the room.
"God, I missed you," he said as he walked over to her wanting nothing more than to touch her and feel her next to him
"Me too," she said, as she finished getting dressed, not taking her eyes off of him. She was buttoning her shirt when he reached over and stopped her. He gently caressed her and was moving in close when they heard the door to the locker room open and Faith jumped backward, turning her back to him. "Roll call!" Sgt. Christopher called in, letting the door swing closed again without looking so he couldn't see the look of frustration on Bosco's face.
Faith grabbed the rest of her gear and looked at Bosco as she walked past him, brushing against him on her way. A low growl escaped Bosco as he followed her out of the locker room and she laughed.
Just as he had figured, Lt. Swersky had again put Faith with Keith Shore, leaving Bosco to work his shift alone. As they were headed out the door, Swersky called out to Bosco who turned and walked back over to the superior officer.
"Yeah Boss," he said as he reached him. "Boscorelli. I just wanted to let you know that you and Yokas will be teaming back up after tonight. Hutchins is going on 2 weeks' vacation, which leaves Jones without a partner," he said.
"Okay. Thanks Boss," Bosco said as he started to turn and sign out a radio. "Bosco, thanks for keeping out of trouble last night. I hope you can do it for one more night without Yokas there to pull your ass out of a jam," cautioned the Lieutenant.
Bosco just nodded and turned to leave, muttering under his breath. The Lieutenant looked after him. This time HE had the eerie feeling that something was going to happen tonight. "I hope it's that we're gonna catch the jag-off going after our officers and firefighters," the Lieutenant said to himself as he headed to his office.

Hope this chapter is okay and not too long. I know there wasn't too much action in this one. The next one will be different.
