Chapter Two- Rainy Days and Mondays
Bosco slid into bed next to his sleeping wife. Doyle had mad a bust thirteen minutes before their shift had been ready to end and it took three hours of paper work to get the guy processed. Seajae rolled over and snuggled closer to him. Her warm body felt good agaist his cold skin. Bosco hated winter. It seemed like the cold would never end. He envied Doc and Maggie sunning themselfs in Mexico for the next ten days.
"Hard day at the office baby?" Seajae wispered in his ear.
"No worse then usal." He pulled her close. "How was your day?"
"Nothing I can't handle. I missed you at dinner."
"Doyle decieded running after gang bangers was more important that eating."
"He'll keep you young."
"He'll kill me the way he makes me run all the time."
"I keep your heart in good shape." He felt her smile into his chest and then kiss the spot above his heart.
"You keep my everything in good shape." Seajae laughed. Bosco loved her laugh. It was sweet and sexy.
"Can I ask you something?"
"Anything."
"Knowing what you know now, would you still have started something back then."
"You mean the day I insulted your investgative skills?"
"Yeah."
"Oh yeah. I take the good with the bad because that makes us who we are now. We're stronger then we've ever been. It because of all we went though." He hugged her close. "What brought this on?"
"I just want to.....I need to know were okay." Bosco eased his wife just far enought away from him to look in her eyes. The small light on the dresser gave enough light that he could see the fear in them.
"Seajae why wouldn't we be?"
"It was just a dream. It freaked me out."
"Tell me about it."
"It was just a dream Bosco."
"Seajae...."
"You were alone with the kids. Taking care of them. I wasn't here. You kept telling Angel that I had to go away. That mommy couldn't live with us anymore." Bosco pulled her closer and kissed the top of her head. Fear running though his blood. It had been a long time since her dreams had haunted her and he didn't want it to start again now.
"Honey your not going anywhere and either am I. It was only a dream. " Bosco lifted her chin and kissed her. "Dreams arn't always what they seem." She ran her hand down his chest.
"Your the best dream I've ever had."
"Honey I'm as real as they come." He felt her hand start to stroke him and felt her lips on his chest. He closed his eyes. She made him feel things that he never thought he would feel. She was his dream...his reality. She sent him soaring yet kept him grounded. She was his savior as he was hers. "Keep that up and your going to see how real I am."
"Is that a promise?"
"You better believer it baby." He rolled over and ented her slowly. "I love you Seajae. Forever and always." She arched into him.
"Don't ever stop loving me Maurice."
"Never."

"What the hell were you thinking!" Bosco stood over Joey Doyle as he sat at the desk doing paper work.
"It got the job done."
"It could of gotten your ass killed."
"I'm still here arn't I."
"Don't push me kid or I'll make your life a living hell."
"Don't treaten me old man." Bosco got into his partners face and looked at the yonger man with more anger then he felt toward a person in a long time.
"You know who the person is who would have to walk into the house and look Kelly and Seajae in the eye and tell them your dead? Do you? Me. I'm not going to do that ever so if you keep up this dumb ass, rookie, hot dog behavior I will have your ass behind a desk before you can turn your head. Do you understand me officer Doyle?"
"Loud and clear Sgt. Boscorelli!" Joey watched his partner walk away and slam his fist into a set of lockers in the hall way.
"Ass hole."
"I heard that Doyle and it's Sgt. Ass Hole to you." Sully was in the locker room when Bosco walked though the door.
"A little hard on the kid wern't you Bosco?"
"He almost got his ass shot today."
"Remind you of someone?"
"Yeah and it scares the hell out of me."
"He'll come around. You did."
"You don't think it was too lilttle too late?"
"You changed for all the right reasons but still kept everything that was you." Sully sat next to his friend. "Joey wants to save the world. You on the other hand wanted the world to change because you said so." Bosco laughed.
"I was an ass wasn't I?"
"You had your moments. But you always did the right thing."
"I guess. Hows Tatiana?"
"Your changing the subject."
"You noticed huh."
"Tatiana is fine and Doyle will be to." Sully looked at his friend and noticed the tiered look in his eyes. "Everything okay with you?"
"Just tiered, thats all." Bosco stood up and started unbotting his shirt. "It's been a long week."
"Bosco it's only Monday." Sully looked at Bosco intently. "You better make a doctors appointment my friend."
"Yeah but you know what happened the last time I went to the doctors."
"We'll give you an armed escort."
"Thanks. I'll think about it. I think I just need a week to sleep."
"Bosco don't put it off. You got so much to look forward to. So much to do." Bosco threw his vest in his locker and thought about Sully's words.
"I'll call tomorrow."
"Thank you."
"I'm not doing it for you old man." Sully smiled.
"No, but without you Seajae would never make it, you know that don't you."
"I'd never make it without her either." He shut his locker. "How can I make Doyle understand I'm just looking out for him?"
"Start by telling him what it's like to be alone. We both know how that is."
"Thanks Sully."
"Anytime buddy." Bosco grabbed his jacket and headed out the door. Joey was still sitting at the desk filling out paper work. Bosco sat down.
"It sucks to have to be the grown up in a relationship. As Seajae. I'm sorry I went off but man you need to slow down. You've got alot riding on us coming home alive every day. You have Kelly. She needs you home, in one peice."
"It's hard. I never had anyone who cared."
"I know then feeling. I was alone for a long time. Even after I had Seajae in my life we both walked that danger line like it was ten feet wide. Then came Angel and we both knew that stepping in the line of fire wasn't the thing to do any more."
"I just see what needs to be done and I do it."
"You can still do it but think a little before you jump into things." Bosco stood up. "You want a ride home?"
"Yeah, give me a minute to file these." Doyle got up and headed to the Sgt's office.
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
The rain fell in sheets. The roads were ice and cars were piling up faster then they could get them cleaned up. Seajae stood behind a bar trying to keep from falling on her ass as she examened the woman lying next to the dumpster. The rain had washed way any blood that had been present and now it was freezing so she would leave it up to the coraner to determan time of death.
"You draw the short straw Boscorelli?" She looked up to see Elliot Stabler standing over her.
"Yeah well you know it's a bitch being the best. What brings you out to this neck of the woods?"
"A guy just can't stop and say hi?"
"On a night like tonight? No."
"I got a call. Same MO as some in my neighborhood."
"Knock your self our. I'm hoping the rain didn't was out anything we might need. I bagged her hands right way."
"Good thinking." The coraners van pulled up. "You want to grab some coffee and get out of this shit?"
"You said the magic words." They walked out of the ally and across the street to a small coffee shop. Seajae shook herself off and ordered two coffees. Elliot sat down at the counter and took off his coat. She sat next to him. "So hows things?"
"Good. Kids are good Kate's good. You?"
"Good. How's Olivia?"
"Great. Her and Billy are doing real good. She comes to work smiling." Seajae smiled and took a sip of coffee the waitress had brought her. She was never going to be warm again.
"I'm happy for her." Seajae ran her hand though her soaking wet hair. "So your cases. Whats the MO?"
"Prostitute thrown behind a dumster. Raped, robbed and stabbed more and more with each vic."
"Passion?"
"I'm guessing anger." Elliot looked at his friend. "You okay?"
"Yeah. I haven't been sleeping to much lately, with the baby and all."
"Bosco doing his part?" Seajae gave him a look.
"More then ever."
"Just asking. I know he does more then most men do."
"Just I've been having some dreams and then I can't get back to sleep and I wake Bosco and he doesn't want me to be alone."
"Nothing a week of sleep wouldn't cure huh."
"Yeah. I got what another eighteen years or so before I can kick the kids out." Elliot laughed.
"Then you won't sleep cause your worried about what their doing and if they're eating."
"It never ends then, does it?"
"Welcome to parenthood my freind." Elliot lifted his cup and took a sip. "It a long ride so buckel up." Seajae lauged. She knew he was right and wondered if she and Bosco would live long enough to enjoy it.
Notes: Gotcha thinking don't I? I still don't know how its going to go. Depends on my mood. But don't be too sad if she goes. She's lived a long full life.
