The Song Remembers When
Chapter Three:A Table For Three
"Do you like him Faith?"
"Who Bosco?" Faith looked at Chyanne. The man in question had gone to the mens room. "Next to you he's my best friend."
"I mean hell Faith, he's..."
"He's what?"
"Everything Fred isn't. He's the male version of you."
"He's my partner and my friend Chyanne Rose. Nothing more."
"If Fred wasn't in the picture would you...date him?"
"I'm not talking about this Chy. Not now not ever."
"Oh my got Faith Marie Yokas you're in love with him." Faith grabbed her friends arm.
"I am not nor ever been in love with Maurice Boscorelli and if you carry on this conversation I'm going to leave now."
"God Faith lighten up." Bosco came up behind them.
"You girls ready?"
"Bosco, I'm going to go home."
"Oh no your not. We need someone sober to drive our ass's. And anyway there's no one home at your place."
"Bosco I want to go home." Faith looked at Chyanne and Bosco.
"No you don't. Bosco take your partner to breakfeast. I'm going to talk to my road manager." Bosco stopped her.
"What went on while I was taking a leak? You two have a fight?"
"NO!" They both said.
"Come on both of you. You can tell me about it in the cab." He ushered the two woman out the door.
***************************************************
Bosco looked at the two woman who looked so much alike it was scary. Chyanne was a good inch taller and maybe ten pounds heavier but they could get mistaken for twins anyday.
"So what happened when I was in the men's room?"
"Nothing!" They both returned.
"Okay. Are we still friends?"
"Yes!" They both replied.
"Does this involve me or Fred in any way?"
"No." Came out of Chyanne's mouth.
"Yes." Came out of Faith's.
"Fred?" They looked at each other.
"Me?" They looked at him. "Fight nice girls. There's enough of me to go around." He laughed hoping to lighten the mood.
"I'm sorry Faith."
"Yeah me too. Bosco's head is big enought. We shouldn't make him think we were fighting over him. Better yet you can have him. It would get messy with Fred and all."
"But he's your friend. I don't want to..well you know what happened to the last guy I dated."
"Oh honey the doctor said it wasn't your fault. He had asthma." Bosco's mouth was wide open. He was looking at both the woman.
"I know but it still hurts. I don't want to loose another one, you know." Faith and Chyanne looked at Bosco. "Is he always this gullable?"
"Only when he's had half a dozen shots." Faith smiled. "You okay Bos?"
"Oh you two are really funny. A million laughs." The Cab pulled up to Merphy's. Bosco paid the driver and they all got out.
"Sorry. But your so cute when your in shock." Bosco shook his head and looked at the hostess.
"A table for three in the back so no one can hear them scream when I kill them both with my bare hands." The hostess looked at him.
"Smoking or non smoking?"
****************************************
"So instead of letting the guy off himself Bosco dives for him and they both fall from a two story window."
"No way!" Faith was telling Chyanne another embarassing Bosco story. "God you are a wild man there Boscorelli." Chyanne stood up. "Dance with me Maurice."
"There's just elevator music."
"So. I'm drunk. Dance with me." She took Bosco's hand and lead him to an empty peice of floor. He took her in his arms and they both swayed to the music. "I'm sorry."
"For what?"
"Getting you angry. Faith and you...I guess I'm just jelous."
"Of me and Faith?"
"Yeah. You guys have it all."
"We're partners."
"Your friends."
"So are you."
"There's more your not telling me."
"Even if there was, which there isn't, why would I tell you?"
"Cause Fred hates us both."
"Why does he hate you so much?"
"Faith stood by me in my divorce."
"Fred liked your ex?"
"Had to. They were bother's."
"Your a Yokas too?" Bosco laughed.
"No. Not anymore."
"Faith said she hadn't noticed how big you've become."
"I never really told her. I wanted to still be the old Chyanne for her. I wish I could of gotten back when Fred had his heart attack. Thank you for being there for you." She saw Bosco wince. "What?"
"Just a bad memory that's all."
"I know you were there."
"You have spies?"
"No. But I did check in with Fred's parents."
"You still talk to the ex-in-laws?"
"Just a little. Jake told me about Fred and so I called the Yokas's."
"Jake?"
"My ex. We talk once a year." Chyanne pulled away. She headed back toward the table. Bosco followed.
"You okay?"
"Yeah." Chyanne sat down. Faith looked at her.
"What's wrong?"
"Have you seen Molly lately?"
"Yeah. I went to see her last month. Like always."
"Were things okay?"
"Yeah. I had them mow. The grass was a little long."
"Good."
"If you want we can go on Christmas."
"No. Fred blames me for so much now. I won't take you away at Christmas. Not again." Chyanne wiped her tears. "If you'll excuse me." She stood and headed to the bathroom.
