Good Morning Beautiful

Chapter 2

"That Day"

Disclaimer: I own nothing concerning Third Watch.

Authors note: I had originally intended for Good Morning Beautiful to be a stand alone fic but I started thinking about what would happen after so I figured why not continue it a bit. I know not everyone is a B/F shipper but for those of you who are I hope you enjoy. :-)

Feedback:Wanted always, Please let me know what you think. Should I continue? Too sappy for B&F? not sappy enough?

It was a little after 12:00 pm and they were still lying there lost in there own little world. Everything was perfect, neither one of them wanted to get up but they had to. They would have to be getting ready for work soon.

Bosco leaned over and gave Faith another kiss and then he got up and pulled on a pair of jeans. He turned around to see her watching him. He still had trouble believing that she was there with him. That she had wanted him as much as he had wanted her. That she loved him, she loved him, she said it. A wide grin appeared on his face remembering her say it. Nothing had ever made him happier. His life was perfect, it wouldn't get any better then right now.

He reached into his dresser and got a t-shirt and handed it to her.

"Here you can wear this. I'll go and fix us something to eat and get us some coffee." He couldn't resist he leaned over and gave her one more kiss before he left the room.

She pulled his shirt on and just laid there for a few minutes still absorbing what happened. Last night had been the best night of her life. He had wanted her just as much as she had wanted him. He wasn't just using her just because she had been their. He loved her, he said so. Nothing could have made her happier then hearing that. She had pushed down her feelings for him for so long because of her family and thinking that there was just no way that he would ever return her feelings but he did and he admitted to having them for along time.

"Here you go" Bosco said coming back into the room and handing her a cup of coffee.

"Thanks" She said as she sat up in bed and took the coffee cup.

She was beautiful. Everything about her was perfect. She looked amazing sitting there in his shirt. He had a weird sense of pride seeing her sitting there in his bed in his shirt. She was his....his Faith. On a lot of levels he had always thought of her as his Faith. She was his best friend, his partner, his reason for living but now she was his completely. He was never going to let her go. He would hold on to her forever. Unless.....

"Faith?"

"Yes" she answered a little concerned with his tone.

"What about Fred? Was this just a one time thing for us?" He felt a knot forming in his stomach. He was scared to hear the answer. All he ever wanted was for her to be happy so if she said that even though she loved him that this was just a one time thing and that she wanted to stay with Fred and the kids then he would accept it. It was going to kill him but as long as she was happy then that's all that mattered, that's all that ever mattered. He would keep telling himself that until the pain went away, which he figured would probably be never.

Bosco's question had surprised her. Fred was the furthest thing from her mind right now. She hadn't even thought about it. But she couldn't see how she would ever be able to stay with Fred after finding out that Bosco loved her that he wanted to be with her. Her and Fred were having problems already she just couldn't see herself fighting for the marriage knowing what she knew now.

She put her coffee down on the night stand and touched his face. "This could never be just a one time thing. It meant to much to me just to have it be over Bos. I need you...I love you"

Bosco felt relief wash over him. She was his. She would always be his and he would do everything in his power to make her happy and keep her safe.

"Fred isn't due back with the kids for a few more days but when he comes back I'll tell him that it isn't working. It's why he took off with the kids in the first place, we needed time apart."

"Faith are you sure? I love you and I don't want to loose you but I want you to be happy. I don't want you to ever regret anything because of me."

"You make me happy. You always have. Why do you think I've stayed your partner all these years and put up with all you?" She asked with a grin."Because I like being with you, you make my world a better place. No matter what is going on in it, I know I'll be fine that everything will be fine because you're there. Last night didn't change that, I've always felt that way. You're my center Bos, I would be lost without you. I would have been happy just being your friend but now that we're more I can never let that go."

She looked down at her hands. What if she was saying to much to soon? What if she was rushing this? This was Bosco she was talking too. He loved her, she didn't doubt that but what if she got him scared of her feelings for him. This was so new to the both of them. They would have to be careful and not rush it.

He saw her look down at her hands as if she was scared of what she had said. He could read her so well. He understood where she was coming from. He felt the exact same way about her.

"Faith look at me" he said as he lifted her chin "It's okay, You know I feel the same way about you."

"Bos I'm scared. What if we mess this up? Whatever this is."

"This is us Faith, we can never mess that up. Look how long we've lasted already."

"Bos this is different and you know it."

"I know it is Faith but it can only make us stronger, trust me on this. I have no plans of ever letting you go. So whatever get's thrown at us we'll get through it, always. I promise."

How did he do it? How did he always make her feel better. It didn't matter what was wrong he could always fix it.

"Come on, I'll fix us something to eat." He said pulling her out of bed.

"A doughnut is not what I call a breakfast."

"I'm insulted, I can cook."

She gave him a disbelieving look.

"No I can, here why don't you go for a shower and I'll get us something ready okay? You will not be disappointed.

She figured she would humor him and went ahead to the shower.

He was in the kitchen finishing up the last of his famous bacon and eggs. Ok so they weren't famous but he thought they were pretty good. He told himself that one of these nights he would make her a big romantic dinner and he would prove just what a great cook he was.

He heard her step into the kitchen. He turned around and saw her, his breath caught in his throat, she looked so beautiful even more then this morning. She was still wearing his t-shirt it went half way down her thighs, she had on a pair of his white socks and her hair was towel dried but was still damp, it hung down on her shoulders, he loved it when she wore her hair down. She was looking at him with those big blue eyes of hers....How did I ever live without her?

He walked up to her and wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her closer. He looked into her eyes, "You know I could get use to this, waking up every morning with you here, looking like that."

She felt herself blushing, This is stupid, I'm a grown women and he's making me feel like I was kid again with my first crush, she thought, but it was true he had that kind of affect on her.

With him standing there in her arms she couldn't help notice just how good he looked, all he had on was a faded pair of blue jeans but they hung on him just right, His hair was still messy and he had a slight 5 o'clock shadow. The sight of him like this, looking at her like that made her toes curl and gave her butterflies in her stomach, in a good way. It had been so long since she felt like that. It was a great feeling.

He leaned over and kissed her. It lasted for a couple of minutes and then he pulled away.

"You go ahead and start eating, it's all ready and on the table."

"Aren't you going to have some?" She asked concerned at his sudden change.

"Uh not right now. I have a feeling that if I don't go for a shower right now we won't be making it into work today." He said with a grin and took off for the bathroom.

She just stood there with a huge smile on her face. She was still amazed that she had that kind of affect on him.

~*~*~*~*~*~

A little while later they were both dressed and on there way to Faiths so she could get changed for work. She had went straight to Bosco's after work the night before and she didn't want to show up wearing the same clothes so she had asked him to take her to her place.

It wasn't long before they were at work. They had both been worried about what it would be like working together that day after what had happened between them, but neither one of them told the other.

It ended up that they were worried for nothing because as soon as they got there they slipped right back into being Boscorelli and Yokas just like normal, like nothing had changed. They still had there disagreements and their smart remarks for each other. But they didn't stare longingly at each other in the locker room ,they didn't play footsie during role call, they didn't have a make out session in the squad car. They were completely professional. In fact nothing happened any different then any other day.

There shift had been uneventful nothing big happened and before they knew it , it was over. They were in the locker room changing.They shared some small talk with Sully and Davis but soon they had left and it was just them.

Bosco walked up to her and grabbed her from behind wrapping his arms around her waist.

"Bosco we can't do this here, someone might see us like this."

"Relax Faith nobody's here, The other shift is already on and we are the last ones here from ours."

He started nuzzling her neck.

She felt herself weaken right away, It was no use fighting or arguing him on this. She couldn't even if she wanted to.

"So you coming back to my place tonight?" he whispered in her ear.

"uh-huh" Was all she could manage to say.

He turned her around and kissed her.

~*~*~*~*~*~

Before things got out of hand right there in the middle of the locker room, they grabbed their coats and left for his apartment.
