Chapter Five-Giving In
"You need to sit this one out Boscrelli." Seajae looked up from the file to see Jason Christopher standing in the door way.
"Why?"
"Because."
"Just because."
"I've learned to trust your judgement, please learn to trust mine."
"I guess I could do that for you." She set the file down on her desk and leaned agaistit. "I still want to know why?"
"I just want you do what I want for once. It's a long drawn out case and I don't want to put you though that right now."
"Don't trust me to do my job?"
"Damn it Seajae. I need you sane to keep your husband sane to keep Doyle sane to keep this whole damn precient from falling apart. If I loose you to a case or even worse I loose my whole third watch." He looked at the woman who had cast a spell on all of the five five the minute she set foot in the door. "Follow my orders once in your life."
"Okay. So who are you going to give it to?"
"Anti Crime."
"Cruz still heading the shift?"
"Yeah."
"She'll do."
"I'm not asking your appoval."
"I think you are."
"Why is it when I pull rank you start a fight?"
"Maybe because when you pull rank you piss me off."
"I'm your Capitain." Seajae smiled.
"And I'm just a pee on Detective Sargent, so why are we even fighting about this Capitain Christopher."
"Your not unreaplaceable Bocorelli."
"You just told me I was."
"I can have you working a beat by tomorrow."
"Make it happen. I feel useless just sitting on my ass dodging the cases you think are to tough for me to handle.
"I know you can handle them...." A knock at the door stopped Jason from continuing.
"Come in." Sgt. Alexis Cruz stepped into Seajae's office.
"Hey." She looked at Seajae.
"Hi."
"I'm pulling my guys in early. I need Boscorelli and Doyle on this one too." She looked at Christopher for appoval.
"Go ahead. If you need anything take it up with Detective Sgt Boscorelli. She's in charge of the office on this one." Jason pushed passed Cruz and headed back to his office. She watched him walk down the hall.
"You sure pissed off the pope." She looked at Seajae.
"Well you know it's in the name. How's things with you Lexi?"
"Good. No complaints. How's Team Boscorelli?" Seajae smiled.
"Hanging in there." Seajae handed Lexi a file. "She's all yours. Call in who and what you need."
"You want to come on the inital?"
"No, you and the boys can handle it. Just keep me posted."
"Will do." Cruz turned to leave. But then turned back. "I'm sorry he took this away from you."
"He didn't take anything away. He saved me from myself. I knew what he was doing but I love to ague with him." Cruz smiled.
"You'll have to teach me that trick sometimes."
"I will." Cruz left and Seajae went back to her reports.
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-
"Doyle!" Alexis yelled from the top of the fire escape.
"Yeah!"
"Get Seajae Boscorelli down her ASAP."
"Christoper said..."
"I don't care what Chistopher said get her down here now."
"Can I ask why I'm disobaying a direct order?"
"This case has her name written all over it." Alexis Cruz looked at the woman on the floor of the apartment. She had a picture over her face and a card in her hand. The picture was of Seajae Boscorelli and the card belonged to her too. Alexis shook her head. This wasn't shaping up to be a good day at all.
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
"Where's Boscrelli?" Jason Christopher stood in the door way to her office.
"Sir?" The office next to him stopped.
"The woman who's ass is suppose to be sitting in that chair. Where is she?"
"Sgt. Cruz called her out to a crime scence about ten minutes ago."
"Son of a bitch. What is it with the women around here. None of them know how to follow an order." Faith was sitting behind the front desk and raised her eyebrows at Christophers comment. "What are you looking at Mc Kenzie."
"Aparently someone who better watch who he spouts those words to."
"Sorry. I just....forget it." Christopher walked back in his office and slammed the door.
*-*-**-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-**-*-*-*-*-*
Seajae looked at the woman on the floor. She didn't reconize her. Alexis looked at the older woman.
"So who might want to leave you a message?"
"The list is long and distingished." Seajae knelt down. "Anything else around?"
"Nothing so far. You okay Seajae?"
"Yeah. If this guy was leaving me a message...." Seajae shook her head. Bosco came up behind her.
"Hey." Seajae stood up.
"Hi."
"Anything we missed?"
"No. I guess we'll have to wait and see. Thanks for the heads up Lexi." Seajae turned and headed out to her car. Bosco looked at Cruz.
"She okay?"
"She said she was."
"I need to talk to her."
"Go." Bosco followed Seajae down the steps. She was just getting into her car when he caught uo with her.
"Seajae. Hey, are you okay?"
"Yeah, why wouldn't I be?"
"Oh I don't know a woman was murdered and your card was in her hand and a picture of you was covering her face."
"It's a case Bosco. Just like anyother."
"Arn't you taking it the least bit personal?"
"Why should I? When I take them personal I loose myself in them. Capitain Christopher thinks thats a bad thing."
"It isn't healthy but I know it gets the job done." Bosco looked at his wife. She was staring at the ground. "Seajae what's really the matter?"
"All I want to do is my job and for some reason he's holding me back. I'm assuming you had something to do about that." She looked at him and for the first time in a very long time he saw anger directed at him.
"No. I would never go to Jason Christopher and ask for him to take you off a case. Or stop you from taking one." Bosco took her chin in his hand and made her look him in the eye. "I have never lied to you Seajae Boscorelli and I'm not going to start now. I swear I didn't go to Christopher and ask him to cut back your work load."
"Then what did I do. I've always done my job Bosco."
"Maybe he's worried about you."
"I'm fine. I'm a big girl and I know when to say when."
"You did just get out of the hospital."
"Three weeks aga."
"Your still the best cop on the beat Seajae don't ever doubt that."
"I don't but somebody else does." She got into the car and started it and rolled down the window. "I'll see you back at the house." Seajae kissed him and pulled out into traffic. Cruz came down the steps and stood next to him.
"Find out what's wrong?"
"Have you ever loved someone so much that you'd die before you'd see them suffer?"
"Can't say that I have."
"Well don't. It sucks." Bosco turned and headed back to help with the canvacing of the neightborhood. Cruz turned and watched him.
"Ain't love grand." She wispered at she watched him walk away.
