An hour later Bosco and Seajae made their way to the apartment and put the sleepy kids to bed. They both needed to catch up on sleep but they also needed to be together and talk some more. Seajae poured them both a glass of ice tea. Seajae added a couple shots of vodka to hers and they sat down on the couch. She pulled her legs under her and looked at Bosco.
"So what did you think about tonight."
"I can't believe all these people came together for me."
"Their a great bunch honey. You've always know that."
"I know it's just...we've been friends but it's just so new."
"Tell me the last thing you remember?"
"Getting off of work and driving home. I never went inside. I just wanted to walk. Clear my head." He looked at her. "I just wanted all the bad things in my life to disappear that night. I wanted something good to happen for once."
"I guess it did. The next day you met me." She smiled.
"I wish I could remember the single most important day in my life."
"You will." She put her tea down and leaned over and kissed him. He wanted her so much. Wanted to show her how he felt. But he pulled back and brushed a stray hair away from her face.
"I don't want to mess this up Seajae. You have all these memories of how things were. What if I can't be who I was then?"
"Then we start agian. I love you Bosco. I have been in love with you since the day I met you. You told me once that you felt the same way. And I know you feel it now."
"I do. And I want nothing more the to take you in the bedroom and make love to you but like I said I don't want to mess this up."
"We need each other and that need can't be wrong."
"Seajae..." God he needed to clear his head. He needed to seperate himself from her and work it all our but if he left now he would break her heart. "Go to bed. We'll figure it all out in the morning."
"Come with me." She got up and took his hand. "I need you." Not as much as he needed her right now but he couldn't. Not yet.
"Seajae...it's not that I don't want you. God only knows the things your doing to me right now but we need to think about what this might do if I never get those five years back. I don't just want a night, I want the whole nine yards. I want you never to regret letting me back into your life."
"I could never regret that baby. Never." She let go of his hand and she raised her shirt to reveal the heart shaped tatoo just above her waist band. The words echoed in his heart. 'Bosco's Girl'. She was his for the taking. His. He never had anyone one who was his and his alone.
"Not tonight Seajae. Just not tonight." He closed his eyes so he wouldn't see the hurt in hers. The phone rang, halting the conversation before she could resplond to his rejection. Seajae reached over and picked up the phone.
"Boscorelli."
"Bad time?" It was Lt. Swersky.
"No Lieu, what's up."
"I know your on leave but we have something you might be interested in."
"I'm listening."
"Are baby napper struck again. This time in our back yard."
"Same MO."
"Pretty much. Doyle and Davis found her. Behind a dumster on Morgan and 32nd."
"Can you give me twenty minutes?"
"Yeah. I'll call the 2-3 and have who ever's catching meet you."
"Thanks Lieu." She hung up the phone. "I gotta catch a case. The kids should sleep though the night. I should be back in a few hours." She walked to the kitchen and unlucked the gun safe under the cabinet and pulled out her glock and holster. Bosco watched her as she strapped it on. She took her colt and strapped in on her ankle. "If you need anything my cell and pager numbers are by the phone."
"Seajae...."
"Don't. Your right. We need to get it together before we....I just was missing you. You'll find out that I'm a very sexal person. I'm not afraid to beg either." She smiled. "And I will if I have to." Grabbing her jacket she headed for the door. Before leaving she turned to Bosco. "Just keep in mind that I've been rocking your world for five years now. I know what you need and when your ready baby, I'm here." She walked out the door and closed it quietly behind her.
**********************************************************
"God." Seajae looked at the girl who couldn't of been more then sixteen. Her dark hair glistened in the light. "What kind of sick fuck does this to a child?" Elliot Stabler walked up behind her.
"One with a whole lotta issues." She turned around and hughed him. "Long time no see."
"Who's fault is that."
"I know. Rumor has it you found Bosco."
"Word gets around fast. CSI is running behind but this one wasn't homeless." Seajae looked at the girl. She was well fed and fairly clean.
"Reacent run away maybe?"
"Thats what I'm thinking. He's waited awile to strike agian." Seajae looked at Elliot. "So we wait till CSI gets here." Joey Doyle came up to her. "Hey Joey, you get anything?"
"No one saw anything. Imagian that."
"Don't get synical on me kid."
"Working with team Boscorelli you get that way."
"Then you need to hang out with a better bunch. Elliot Stabler, Joey Doyle."
"Hey. I think we met when the kids..."
"Yeah." Elliot smiled. "CSI's here." They stepped back to let the team do thier thing.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Bosco lay in bed and inhaled the scent that was all woman. All Seajae. He got hard just thinking about her lying next to him in this bed. He need her. Needed to touch her. Feel her warm skin. He growned. He was like a teenager with a crush. Man what this woman he'd know all of twenty four hours was doing to his mind and body. He tuned over and tryed not to think about the perky blond who drove him wild with just one look.
****************************************************
Seajae locked up her guns in the safe and striped her boots off. The girl had been fifteen years old. A run away from New Hampshire. He parents hadn't a clue she was pregant. Seajae threw her clothes in the hamper and grabbed the T-shirt of Bosco's she'd been wearing to sleep in. It smelled of him and it made her feel close to him while he was gone. The small lamp illuminated the large bedroom. Bosco was asleep. The closer she got to the bed the more she felt like a stranger. She stood by the edge and looked at the bruises on his back. What had he gone though. God they must of hurt him terribley. She got into bed and touched his shoulder where the darkest bruise lay. He flinched in his sleep and she pulled back her hand. Tears fell as she thought of the pain he suffered then and now. He turned, eyes open and looked at her.
"No one's ever cried for me before."
"We all have. When you were lost. Jimmy even cried with me. You mean so much to all of us Bosco." He wiped the tears from her cheek.
"Seajae I swear I won't hurt you. I won't leave, not unless you ask me too. I need you. I know what I said before but I just can't bear not being close to you one minute more." He kissed her then. A kiss full of tenderness and promise.
"I can't give you more then forever Bosco. Can you handle that?" He smile and pulled her warm body close to his.
"It'll take some time but if forever's all you got." He kissed her again and his whole body shook with the raw emotion he was feeling for this woman he barly even knew. But he rememberd what Faith had told him about his heart not forgeting. She was warm and soft and he felt such a need to protect her. They held each other for what seemed like a life time and then they fell asleep. Content to be close as two people could be without taking that last step. They needed confort from eachother and that's what they got, holding on to the one thing they both needed. Eachother.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
The phone ringing brought Seajae out of a sound sleep. Picking it up she tried to focus on the clock by the bed.
"Somebody better be dead."
"Good mornig to you to Sunshine."
"Bite me Benson. What do you want?"
"Your girl from last night. ME's report is on it's way to your office as we speak."
"K. Is that all you wanted?"
"How's Bosco?" Seajae turned and looked at his sleeping form and smiled.
"Alive. I'll fill you in like after the sun rises. I'll call you when my night shift ass gets out of bed."
"Okay. Talk soon." Seajae hung up the phone. She heared Kelly over the moniter getting Mac up so she turned over and snuggled close to her husband and felt his arms around her.
"Please tell me we can stay here for a while." He opened his eyes.
"As long as you want. Kelly's getting the kids ready and if it's Saturday she's going to the Zoo." She smiled. "But I gotta get to work. Your welcome to join me if you like. You can sack out in my office and catch up on your regs."
"I'd rather stay here in bed with you. Shut the whole world out." Seajae smiled.
"MMMM Soon." She kissed him and got out of bed. Tying her hair up she grabbed a pair of jeans out of the dresser. "So you want to tag along?"
"I haven't got anything better to do." Bosco watched as she braided her hair. He saw a scar on her shoulder. "What's that one from?" She looked at her shoulder.
"Terroist in Buddapest about eight years ago. Fancied himself a sharp shooter." She sat on the bed and her shirt rose just above her theigh. A red scar marked the inside left one. Bosco touched it.
"Chevchenko. He got the worse end of the deal."
"How many more do you have?" Seajae smiled.
"We'll save the rest for a day we have more time." She kissed him and slipped on her jeans. "Meet me in the kitchen with a pot of coffee."
"Will do." Bosco watched Seajae go into the bathroom and smiled. She was one hell of a woman. He figured he better go make some coffee to keep her in the good mood she woke up in.
**********************************************************
Bosco laid on the couch in Seajae's office as she mulled over the ME's report. He glanced up to see her ready to pound her head agaist the desk.
"You want to take a break?"
"No I want to catch this son of a bitch before he kills again. There's no ryme or reason to any of these other then the baby."
"You ran lawyers, doctors, social workers?"
"Yes. Nothing comes up a match. It's driving me nuts." It all went back to Remar James. His DNA was found at four of the murders. He was in prision for three of them. Bosco read over her shoulder.
"So how does this Remar James fit into all this?"
"Beats the hell out of me. They can't arest a man for murder when he's in jail and has been there for the last ten years." Bosco couldn't help it so he kissed her neck.
"You need a break. Come on I'll treat to a hot dog. Sammy still have his cart down the block?"
"His granddaughter took over for him about two years ago. Still the best dogs on the upper west side."
"So...lets go."
"Bosco, I need to work on this."
"Sometimes walking away from something and coming back helps."
"Maybe. I just can't get a connection and when I do I know I can get this guy. He almost got Kim. When she was pregnant with Ireland. This is just getting way to close."
"Then step back Seajae. Just take a breather." She looked up at him.
"Your going to get me in trouble Boscorelli."
"I think it's a habit for us, isn't it? Getting in trouble." He kissed her.
"Mostly me. Your the good cop in this relationship." Seajae leaned back in her chair and relaxed for a minute. Having Bosco here eased alot of worry she was feeling but there was that something that always made her stop and think about what might of been.
"They won't fire you for a fifteen minute hot dog break. If they did I'd of been fired my first day." He took her hands and pulled her out of the chair. Sully came in just as they were leaving.
"You guys got a minute?" Seajae smiled.
"For you Sully we got two." He stepped into the office and closed the door.
"We arrested your friend Nicloe last night." Sully handed Seajae a copy of the report.
"My ex Niclole?" Bosco looked at Seajae.
"Yep. She's been a thorn in our side for a long time. What did she do this time?"
"DUI. But when we searched her car we found this." Seajae looked at the bag Sully held up.
"Bosco..." He looked at Sully. In the bag was a black case. It was open to revieal a badge and ID.
"How the hell did she get my badge?"
"I thought maybe one of you would like to ask her that." It took all she had for Seajae not to just walk out the door and go to holding and strangle Nicole Wentworth.
"Yeah. I'll be down in a minute. Get her into an interrogation room." Sully looked at Seajae and didn't like the anger clouding her eyes. She wasn't quite back to her old cheerful self but if she found out Nicole had anything at all with Bosco's disappearence she would snap. Sully left then. Knowing sombody had to be in that room with her he went and got Joey Doyle.
"Seajae?"
"Just don't let her see you okay. I want to find out what she knows. I knew I should of shot the bitch when I had a chance." Seajae sat down and put her head in her hands a rubbed her face.
"Seajae?"
"What?" She snapped and looked up at him.
"Don't do anything stupid. She's not worth it." SHe stood back up and headed out the door. She hoped that she could regain some of her composer before she got to the end of the hall.
****************************************************************
Joey Doyle brought Nicloe from lock up and sat the woman down at the table. She smiled her sexy smile at him. His face never changed. He had heard about this woman from more then one person around the station. She gave new meaning to the word whore. Now they find out she may of played a part in Bosco's disappearence. That didn't sit well with him. The Boscorelli's had made him part of their close nit circle of friends. He had sat with Seajae as they waited for a phone call the night he left. He saw a woman who wasn't afraid of anything fall apart.. If this woman had anything to do with it he knew between them she would pay a way bigger price then prision.
"So....Doyle what the hell is the hold up. Just give me my ticket and I can get the hell out of this god forsaken place."
"Seems you got a little more trouble then you bargened for." Doyle smiled as the door opened and Seajae walked in. "Way more trouble it seems."
"Hey Joey. What did you do to get lock up duty?"
"Just lucky I guess." Seajae looked at Nicole. She thew the bag with the badge in it on the table. "You got like thirty seconds to tell me what the hell you did with my husband." She leaned toward Nicole. "Cause Doyle here, he won't care if I snap your pretty little neck in front of him. He's an ex marine. A little blood won't scare him."
"Your phyco lady. I don't even know who the hell your husband is."
"That's two people in two days that have forgotten who I am. Should I be offended Joey?"
"I would be mam." She fliped the badge over. Bosco's ID stared at Nicole.
"It's only been about four years Nicole. You'd think you'd remember."
"Your Maurice's wife?" She looked up. "I didn't know he was married. Really. I haven't seen him in like a week. Then the other night I drove him home. He had a headache."
"You saw him last week?"
"Yeah he was hanging down at the peir with a bunch of the dock guys. I figured he was working undercover so I didn't say anything to him. When he turned and saw me he had this empty look in his eyes. They wern't his eyes."
"Nicole before last week did you see him anywhere." She shook her head.
"Not since....she looked at Seajae. Not since the night you arrested me."
"You remember now?"
"How could I forget you kicked my ass good and I deserved it." She looked down at the table. "I saw him wondering about ten blocks from home and I gave him a ride Seajae. He didn't say anything the whole ride and when he got out of the car all he said was 'thanks'"
"Thanks Nicole. You got him home safe and for that I thank you."
"I take it he was gone more then a couple of hours?"
"Nearly a month. He lost a good chunk of his memory and we just want to know where he's been."
"I can ask around the docks. If they didn't know he was a cop I'm sure if he'd been hanging down there they would know something."
"Thanks. Just call me if you find something."
"Is Maurice okay?"
"Yeah. He is."
"Seajae....." Seajae turned and looked at the woman at the table.
"The best woman won." She smiled. "I knew that day I came over that he was so in love with you nothing would pull you two apart."
"Thank you Nicole. And if you need anything, just call." Seajae left the room. Behind the two way glass Bosco smiled. His past and present hit with full force and they walked away with smiles on there faces. Go figure.
**********************************************************************
After hot dogs and a couple of soda's Seajae and Bosco headed back to her office to try and wrestle with the reports on her desk. Bosco watched as she consentrated on the papers in front of her. He noticed how she rubbed her thumb over the underside of her wedding band when she really was into something. He looked down at his ring fingure of his right hand and saw the tan line his ring had left. He wondered what had happen to his. He wondered a lot of things in the last two days. Bosco just wanted to find out what had happened to him and maybe down at the docks what a place to start.
"Do you think if we went down to the peir, someone would reconize me?"
"Yeah. But we don't know how they know you and it could get us into more trouble. I'd ranther have you alive and missing a peice of your memory then dead missing peices." She smiled.
"Okay, your right. You and Nicole are quite freindly."
"Yeah I'm haunted by her memory everytime I see her."
"Does she visit often?"
"Once every four years or so." Bosco came up behind her and rubbed her shoulders.
"You okay?"
"This case is haunting me more then Nicole. This guy is sick and demented but then he takes these kids and does what with them. Does he find families for them or does take them home and.....God I don't even want to think about that."
"Birth certificates."
"What?"
"If this guy is finding homes he will need to get birth certificates."
"He could be grab a plane and go anywhere and give the kids to anyone."
"Yeah I guess. Doesn't hurt to check it out."
"We have nothing to loose." Seajea turned to her computer and found the department that issued birth certificates. "There could be at least a week or two window."
"Check John and Jane Does or ones that have baby as the first the name. If they were going to be adopted..."
"Your amazing Boscorelli."
"I'm assuming that's why you married me." Seajae smiled. Oh soon enough he'd find out why she married him. And then they could put their haunting pasts behind them.
****************************************************************
An hour later Bosco and Seajae made their way to the apartment and put the sleepy kids to bed. They both needed to catch up on sleep but they also needed to be together and talk some more. Seajae poured them both a glass of ice tea. Seajae added a couple shots of vodka to hers and they sat down on the couch. She pulled her legs under her and looked at Bosco.
"So what did you think about tonight."
"I can't believe all these people came together for me."
"Their a great bunch honey. You've always know that."
"I know it's just...we've been friends but it's just so new."
"Tell me the last thing you remember?"
"Getting off of work and driving home. I never went inside. I just wanted to walk. Clear my head." He looked at her. "I just wanted all the bad things in my life to disappear that night. I wanted something good to happen for once."
"I guess it did. The next day you met me." She smiled.
"I wish I could remember the single most important day in my life."
"You will." She put her tea down and leaned over and kissed him. He wanted her so much. Wanted to show her how he felt. But he pulled back and brushed a stray hair away from her face.
"I don't want to mess this up Seajae. You have all these memories of how things were. What if I can't be who I was then?"
"Then we start agian. I love you Bosco. I have been in love with you since the day I met you. You told me once that you felt the same way. And I know you feel it now."
"I do. And I want nothing more the to take you in the bedroom and make love to you but like I said I don't want to mess this up."
"We need each other and that need can't be wrong."
"Seajae..." God he needed to clear his head. He needed to seperate himself from her and work it all our but if he left now he would break her heart. "Go to bed. We'll figure it all out in the morning."
"Come with me." She got up and took his hand. "I need you." Not as much as he needed her right now but he couldn't. Not yet.
"Seajae...it's not that I don't want you. God only knows the things your doing to me right now but we need to think about what this might do if I never get those five years back. I don't just want a night, I want the whole nine yards. I want you never to regret letting me back into your life."
"I could never regret that baby. Never." She let go of his hand and she raised her shirt to reveal the heart shaped tatoo just above her waist band. The words echoed in his heart. 'Bosco's Girl'. She was his for the taking. His. He never had anyone one who was his and his alone.
"Not tonight Seajae. Just not tonight." He closed his eyes so he wouldn't see the hurt in hers. The phone rang, halting the conversation before she could resplond to his rejection. Seajae reached over and picked up the phone.
"Boscorelli."
"Bad time?" It was Lt. Swersky.
"No Lieu, what's up."
"I know your on leave but we have something you might be interested in."
"I'm listening."
"Are baby napper struck again. This time in our back yard."
"Same MO."
"Pretty much. Doyle and Davis found her. Behind a dumster on Morgan and 32nd."
"Can you give me twenty minutes?"
"Yeah. I'll call the 2-3 and have who ever's catching meet you."
"Thanks Lieu." She hung up the phone. "I gotta catch a case. The kids should sleep though the night. I should be back in a few hours." She walked to the kitchen and unlucked the gun safe under the cabinet and pulled out her glock and holster. Bosco watched her as she strapped it on. She took her colt and strapped in on her ankle. "If you need anything my cell and pager numbers are by the phone."
"Seajae...."
"Don't. Your right. We need to get it together before we....I just was missing you. You'll find out that I'm a very sexal person. I'm not afraid to beg either." She smiled. "And I will if I have to." Grabbing her jacket she headed for the door. Before leaving she turned to Bosco. "Just keep in mind that I've been rocking your world for five years now. I know what you need and when your ready baby, I'm here." She walked out the door and closed it quietly behind her.
**********************************************************
"God." Seajae looked at the girl who couldn't of been more then sixteen. Her dark hair glistened in the light. "What kind of sick fuck does this to a child?" Elliot Stabler walked up behind her.
"One with a whole lotta issues." She turned around and hughed him. "Long time no see."
"Who's fault is that."
"I know. Rumor has it you found Bosco."
"Word gets around fast. CSI is running behind but this one wasn't homeless." Seajae looked at the girl. She was well fed and fairly clean.
"Reacent run away maybe?"
"Thats what I'm thinking. He's waited awile to strike agian." Seajae looked at Elliot. "So we wait till CSI gets here." Joey Doyle came up to her. "Hey Joey, you get anything?"
"No one saw anything. Imagian that."
"Don't get synical on me kid."
"Working with team Boscorelli you get that way."
"Then you need to hang out with a better bunch. Elliot Stabler, Joey Doyle."
"Hey. I think we met when the kids..."
"Yeah." Elliot smiled. "CSI's here." They stepped back to let the team do thier thing.

"We all have. When you were lost. Jimmy even cried with me. You mean so much to all of us Bosco." He wiped the tears from her cheek.
"Seajae I swear I won't hurt you. I won't leave, not unless you ask me too. I need you. I know what I said before but I just can't bear not being close to you one minute more." He kissed her then. A kiss full of tenderness and promise.
"I can't give you more then forever Bosco. Can you handle that?" He smile and pulled her warm body close to his.
"It'll take some time but if forever's all you got." He kissed her again and his whole body shook with the raw emotion he was feeling for this woman he barly even knew.

"Somebody better be dead."
"Good mornig to you to Sunshine."
"Bite me Benson. What do you want?"
"Your girl from last night. ME's report is on it's way to your office as we speak."
"K. Is that all you wanted?"
"How's Bosco?" Seajae turned and looked at his sleeping form and smiled.
"Alive. I'll fill you in like after the sun rises. I'll call you when my night shift ass gets out of bed."
"Okay. Talk soon." Seajae hung up the phone. She heared Kelly over the moniter getting Mac up so she turned over and snuggled close to her husband and felt his arms around her.

"I'd rather stay here in bed with you. Shut the whole world out." Seajae smiled.
"MMMM Soon." She kissed him and got out of bed. Tying her hair up she grabbed a pair of jeans out of the dresser. "So you want to tag along?"
"I haven't got anything better to do." Bosco watched as she braided her hair. He saw a scar on her shoulder. "What's that one from?" She looked at her shoulder.
"Terroist in Buddapest about eight years ago. Fancied himself a sharp shooter." She sat on the bed and her shirt rose just above her theigh. A red scar marked the inside left one. Bosco touched it.
"Chevchenko. He got the worse end of the deal."
"How many more do you have?" Seajae smiled.
"We'll save the rest for a day we have more time." She kissed him and slipped on her jeans. "Meet me in the kitchen with a pot of coffee."
"Will do." Bosco watched Seajae go into the bathroom and smiled. She was one hell of a woman. He figured he better go make some coffee to keep her in the good mood she woke up in.
**********************************************************
Bosco laid on the couch in Seajae's office as she mulled over the ME's report. He glanced up to see her ready to pound her head agaist the desk.
"You want to take a break?"
"No I want to catch this son of a bitch before he kills again. There's no ryme or reason to any of these other then the baby."
"You ran lawyers, doctors, social workers?"
"Yes. Nothing comes up a match. It's driving me nuts." It all went back to Remar James. His DNA was found at four of the murders. He was in prision for three of them. Bosco read over her shoulder.
"So how does this Remar James fit into all this?"
"Beats the hell out of me. They can't arest a man for murder when he's in jail and has been there for the last ten years." Bosco couldn't help it so he kissed her neck.
"You need a break. Come on I'll treat to a hot dog. Sammy still have his cart down the block?"
"His granddaughter took over for him about two years ago. Still the best dogs on the upper west side."
"So...lets go."
"Bosco, I need to work on this."
"Sometimes walking away from something and coming back helps."
"Maybe. I just can't get a connection and when I do I know I can get this guy. He almost got Kim. When she was pregnant with Ireland. This is just getting way to close."
"Then step back Seajae. Just take a breather." She looked up at him.
"Your going to get me in trouble Boscorelli."
"I think it's a habit for us, isn't it? Getting in trouble." He kissed her.
"Mostly me. Your the good cop in this relationship." Seajae leaned back in her chair and relaxed for a minute. Having Bosco here eased alot of worry she was feeling but there was that something that always made her stop and think about what might of been.
"They won't fire you for a fifteen minute hot dog break. If they did I'd of been fired my first day." He took her hands and pulled her out of the chair. Sully came in just as they were leaving.
"You guys got a minute?" Seajae smiled.
"For you Sully we got two." He stepped into the office and closed the door.
"We arrested your friend Nicloe last night." Sully handed Seajae a copy of the report.
"My ex Niclole?" Bosco looked at Seajae.
"Yep. She's been a thorn in our side for a long time. What did she do this time?"
"DUI. But when we searched her car we found this." Seajae looked at the bag Sully held up.
"Bosco..." He looked at Sully. In the bag was a black case. It was open to revieal a badge and ID.
"How the hell did she get my badge?"
"I thought maybe one of you would like to ask her that." It took all she had for Seajae not to just walk out the door and go to holding and strangle Nicole Wentworth.
"Yeah. I'll be down in a minute. Get her into an interrogation room." Sully looked at Seajae and didn't like the anger clouding her eyes. She wasn't quite back to her old cheerful self but if she found out Nicole had anything at all with Bosco's disappearence she would snap. Sully left then. Knowing sombody had to be in that room with her he went and got Joey Doyle.
"Seajae?"
"Just don't let her see you okay. I want to find out what she knows. I knew I should of shot the bitch when I had a chance." Seajae sat down and put her head in her hands a rubbed her face.
"Seajae?"
"What?" She snapped and looked up at him.
"Don't do anything stupid. She's not worth it." SHe stood back up and headed out the door. She hoped that she could regain some of her composer before she got to the end of the hall.
****************************************************************
Joey Doyle brought Nicloe from lock up and sat the woman down at the table. She smiled her sexy smile at him. His face never changed. He had heard about this woman from more then one person around the station. She gave new meaning to the word whore. Now they find out she may of played a part in Bosco's disappearence. That didn't sit well with him. The Boscorelli's had made him part of their close nit circle of friends. He had sat with Seajae as they waited for a phone call the night he left. He saw a woman who wasn't afraid of anything fall apart.. If this woman had anything to do with it he knew between them she would pay a way bigger price then prision.
"So....Doyle what the hell is the hold up. Just give me my ticket and I can get the hell out of this god forsaken place."
"Seems you got a little more trouble then you bargened for." Doyle smiled as the door opened and Seajae walked in. "Way more trouble it seems."
"Hey Joey. What did you do to get lock up duty?"
"Just lucky I guess." Seajae looked at Nicole. She thew the bag with the badge in it on the table. "You got like thirty seconds to tell me what the hell you did with my husband." She leaned toward Nicole. "Cause Doyle here, he won't care if I snap your pretty little neck in front of him. He's an ex marine. A little blood won't scare him."
"Your phyco lady. I don't even know who the hell your husband is."
"That's two people in two days that have forgotten who I am. Should I be offended Joey?"
"I would be mam." She fliped the badge over. Bosco's ID stared at Nicole.
"It's only been about four years Nicole. You'd think you'd remember."
"Your Maurice's wife?" She looked up. "I didn't know he was married. Really. I haven't seen him in like a week. Then the other night I drove him home. He had a headache."
"You saw him last week?"
"Yeah he was hanging down at the peir with a bunch of the dock guys. I figured he was working undercover so I didn't say anything to him. When he turned and saw me he had this empty look in his eyes. They wern't his eyes."
"Nicole before last week did you see him anywhere." She shook her head.
"Not since....she looked at Seajae. Not since the night you arrested me."
"You remember now?"
"How could I forget you kicked my ass good and I deserved it." She looked down at the table. "I saw him wondering about ten blocks from home and I gave him a ride Seajae. He didn't say anything the whole ride and when he got out of the car all he said was 'thanks'"
"Thanks Nicole. You got him home safe and for that I thank you."
"I take it he was gone more then a couple of hours?"
"Nearly a month. He lost a good chunk of his memory and we just want to know where he's been."
"I can ask around the docks. If they didn't know he was a cop I'm sure if he'd been hanging down there they would know something."
"Thanks. Just call me if you find something."
"Is Maurice okay?"
"Yeah. He is."
"Seajae....." Seajae turned and looked at the woman at the table.
"The best woman won." She smiled. "I knew that day I came over that he was so in love with you nothing would pull you two apart."
"Thank you Nicole. And if you need anything, just call." Seajae left the room. Behind the two way glass Bosco smiled. His past and present hit with full force and they walked away with smiles on there faces. Go figure.
**********************************************************************
After hot dogs and a couple of soda's Seajae and Bosco headed back to her office to try and wrestle with the reports on her desk. Bosco watched as she consentrated on the papers in front of her. He noticed how she rubbed her thumb over the underside of her wedding band when she really was into something. He looked down at his ring fingure of his right hand and saw the tan line his ring had left. He wondered what had happen to his. He wondered a lot of things in the last two days. Bosco just wanted to find out what had happened to him and maybe down at the docks what a place to start.
"Do you think if we went down to the peir, someone would reconize me?"
"Yeah. But we don't know how they know you and it could get us into more trouble. I'd ranther have you alive and missing a peice of your memory then dead missing peices." She smiled.
"Okay, your right. You and Nicole are quite freindly."
"Yeah I'm haunted by her memory everytime I see her."
"Does she visit often?"
"Once every four years or so." Bosco came up behind her and rubbed her shoulders.
"You okay?"
"This case is haunting me more then Nicole. This guy is sick and demented but then he takes these kids and does what with them. Does he find families for them or does take them home and.....God I don't even want to think about that."
"Birth certificates."
"What?"
"If this guy is finding homes he will need to get birth certificates."
"He could be grab a plane and go anywhere and give the kids to anyone."
"Yeah I guess. Doesn't hurt to check it out."
"We have nothing to loose." Seajea turned to her computer and found the department that issued birth certificates. "There could be at least a week or two window."
"Check John and Jane Does or ones that have baby as the first the name. If they were going to be adopted..."
"Your amazing Boscorelli."
"I'm assuming that's why you married me." Seajae smiled. Oh soon enough he'd find out why she married him. And then they could put their haunting pasts behind them.
