Chapter 3

                        Watching Her

The next day,

" Charlie and Emily are you ready to go?" said Faith

" Yeah mom" they said

" Okay, Fred we are all ready" said faith

"So where are we going?" said Faith

" We are going to the cabin," said Fred

" That sounds cool," said Faith

Faith then leaned over and kissed Fred.

" Thanks Fred"

" Staying at the cabin will help me forget about the whole stalker thing"

" Have you got anymore letters lately?" said Fred

"No" said Faith, who was beginning to believe that the whole stalker thing was behind her, what Faith doesn't know, is this thing is far from over.

***

Now that I have her partner, it will be much easier to get her to come to me. But there is still her husband to worry about. I'll deal with him later.

A few days,

" That is strange, Bosco is not here again?" said Sully

" Maybe he is sick," said Ty

" I just wonder where he could be?" Sully said

" Why don't you phone Faith, and see if she knows?" said Ty

" I think she is away with her family," said Sully

" I 'm sure Faith will not mind if you call her, " said Ty

" Yeah" said Sully

Bosco woke up in a dirty basement with his hands tied to a chair.

Where am I? thought Bosco

The last thing I remember is walking to my car, and then hearing footsteps coming from the outside.

" I see you are awake?" said the stranger

" What do you want with me?" asked Bosco

" Does this ring a bell"?

" A rose for you, soon we will be together," said the stranger.

" You sick bastard, you are the one that is going after Faith" said Bosco.

" As soon as she finds out that her precious Bosco is missing, she will come to me to save you.

" Don't even think about hurting Faith" said Bosco

" I would never hurt my precious Faith, you maybe," grinned the man.

Bosco then remembered that he had his knife with him.  All he needed to do was distract this stranger while I untie the rope thought Bosco.

" Why do you want Faith?" asked Bosco

" Why would I tell you? asked the man

" Only she knows why I want her. Bosco then started to use the knife to cut himself free.

" Leave Faith alone, she is not yours" said Bosco.

The man then saw that Bosco was trying to get free. The man pointed his gun at Bosco.

" How would Faith feel when she sees her beloved partner is dead because he was trying to save Faith from the bad man. Faith is going to be mine and there is nothing that you or her husband can do about it"

The guy then left the basement leaving Bosco all on his own.

Faith, please don't fall into his trap" thought Bosco.

" Fred, I love seeing Charlie and Emily having so much fun," said Faith

" Fred, I'm scared about this stalker thing," said Faith

" But I thought you said you haven't got any letters lately?" said Fred

" I know, I said that, but what happens if he is waiting for me to have my guard down, and then he comes after me" said Faith

Fred then went to trying and comfort Faith.

" Faith, sweetheart, I would never let him hurt you" said Fred

" He would have to go through me first before he can get to you," said Fred

" Thanks Fred" said Faith. Faith was starting to feel much better after talking to Fred, but something inside her told her that something was definitely wrong.

Faith and Fred was just about to go to bed, when Faith's cell phone went off.

" Faith, do you have to get it" asked Fred

" I will only be a second"

Faith then went and answered the phone.

" Hi, this is Faith"

" Hi, this is Sully"

" Oh" said Faith

" Have you seen Bosco?"

" No, why, but I have been away for a couple of days" said Faith

" Well that is when Bosco started not showing up for work" said Sully

" I tried his house, but he didn't pick up"

" Thanks, Sully, I'll try and see if I can find him"

After Faith got off the phone, she tried phoning Bosco, but he wasn't there. She tried all the places she thought Bosco could be. Faith had a gut feeling this has to do with the whole stalker thing.

" Fred, I need to go back to New York City"

' Why?'

" Bosco hasn't shown up for work for the past couple of days" said Faith

" How do you know that?" asked Fred.

" That was Sully on the phone" said Faith

" Fred, I'm worried that the stalker has got Bosco," said Faith

" Faith I don't think he has" said Fred.

" But you don't know, do you" asked Faith

 " No"

" Faith why don't you phone him"

" I have and he hasnt answered, " said Faith.

Fred could see that Faith was really worried, and he knows if they don't go back to New York City, all she would be thinking about is Bosco,

" We will leave bright and early in the morning"

" Fine" said Faith

Bosco, I don't know what I would do if you got hurt because of me thought Faith.
