Vincent looked at his scars all over his arm. They were scars of war he told himself. He sighed as he kicked the bubbles almost onto the floor. He laughed loudly. Faith peered into the bathroom.
"Vincent Giovanni, if you get the floor all wet you need to dry it up with your blanket and sleep with it all wet." She said.
"Fine." Vincent muttered "You know you're pretty mean."
"Mean? Sweetheart, you haven't seen mean. Just ask Charlie." Faith said putting the towels away. Vincent gave his mother a look.
"Well, I'll be five next month and then I'm gonna move out." Vincent said as he stood up. Bubbles slid down his body.
"You're going to move out?" Faith asked her youngest son.
"Yes cause you're mean to me." He said, "I'm going to live right. Gonna party with my friends and marry Jade." Faith rolled her eyes, "And I'm going to have seventeen puppies." She chuckled.
"Go get dressed." Faith said. Vincent growled and stomped out of the room, "Naughty boy." She turned the faucet on and grabbed her soap.
An entire day of cleaning and she was sick of it. Faith lathered up her hands and washed them. She heard a clink down he drain, She looked at her left hand and saw that her wedding ring was missing. "Oh God. Oh God."
Faith tried to reach into the drain but heard the ring dropped further down. She cursed. The ring was all the way down the drain. her only wedding ring. she heard the downstairs door open up.
"Mom, I'm home." Charlie yelled.
"I have this months check, Faith." Fred said walking into the house. Faith growled.
"Put it on the table. Could you come up here to the bathroom, Fred?" She asked.
"Ah...the bathroom?" He asked
"Yes, please." Faith whimpered. Fred climbed up the stairs and looked into the bathroom.
"What's wrong?" Fred asked.
"My wedding ring. It slipped down the drain." Faith said, "Bosco is going to kill me if he finds out. Those rings were expensive."
"Okay, well, get me a bucket and took box and I'll see what I can do." Fred said. Faith smiled thankfully and ran out of the room. Within a few minutes Faith was back into the bathroom.
"You think you can get it out in twenty minutes?" She asked.
"Is that when he's coming home, Faith?" Fred asked with a grin.
"Yeah." Faith said as she watched Fred take the wrench out, "It wouldn't be such a huge deal, but I lost this ring three times already and Bosco would kill me if he know this was number four." Faith chuckled softly.
"This is just like you." he said as he took the pipe off.
"No it's not." Faith crossed her arms as she watched Fred dump the contents into the bucket. She heard the clink of her ring into the bucket. "Is that it?" Fred reached into the bucket.
"Yeah it is." He said handing it to his ex-wife. Her face brightened up.
"Oh Thank you!!" She cried, grabbing the ring. Faith slid it back onto her finger as Fred put the pipe back onto the sink. The front door opened from downstairs.
"Honey, I'm home." Bosco called out. Fred chuckled as he looked at Faith.
"Cute." he said.
"Shut up." Faith said as Fred stood up "Thanks for doing this."
"No problem." he said, "If you ever need anything...Just give me a call." Faith smiled softly at him. He did have his moments.
"All right." She led Fred out of the bathroom and down stairs. Bosco looked at Faith oddly.
"Hey." he said.
"Hey." Fred Said, "I'll see you later Faith." Faith nodded uncomfortably as her ex-husband left. Bosco stared at her.
"Why was he here?" He asked her.
"He was dropping Charlie off." Faith said, "Charlie drove."
"Right." Bosco muttered, "I'm going to take a shower." He kissed her softly and climbed the stairs. God, he hated that man. He hated when Fred walked into his home. He would be a lot happier if he never saw Fred again.

Faith stood in front of her mirror running a brush through her hair. She had had a long day. She spent a few hours at work then went to Emily's house to give Sydney a couple of gifts since she turned three yesterday. Faith couldn't believe her granddaughter was three.
"Looking hot." Bosco said. Faith chuckled softly.
"Alex and I are going out." She said. Bosco arched his eyebrow.
"Alex? Why her?" Bosco asked. Faith rolled her eyes.
"Because Alex needed a break from Jade and Caroline." Faith said putting her 55 diamond pin on Bosco had gotten her awhile ago.
"You going to drink?" He asked. Faith shook her head.
"I would be a hypocrite if I did." Faith said, "You really think I look hot?"
"Extremely." Bosco kissed her cheek "You girls have fun but be careful."

Faith sat at the bar with a beer. Okay, so she was a hypocrite. She didn't care right now.
"Can you believe I'm a grandmother?" She asked. Alex laughed.
"No. You don't look like a grandmother." Alex said glancing at some men on the dance floor. She still off of the stool, "Let's go tonight."
"Ooooh. I don't dance, Alex." Faith shook her head.
"Yes you do. You're not officer Boscorelli tonight you're....you're Miss Abigail exotic dancer." Alex said. Faith laughed.
"Fine. But you owe me big time." She said walking onto the dancef loor. Immediately a young man grabbed Faith by her waist and started to move with her. She arched her eyebrow.
"My name is Garrett. What's yours?" he yelled. faith chuckled.
"Abigail. My name is Abigail." She said. What a dorky name, Faith thought.
"That's a lovely name, Abigail." Garrett said grinding his hips into Faith's. hips. She blushed as she danced with him. Alex grinned approvingly as she danced with a man. Garrett got as close as Faith would allow him, "You're gorgeous."
"Thank you." She said sliding her arms around his neck. "You're pretty good looking yourself." Garrett chuckled.
"I see your married." He said.
"So?" Faith asked, "Does that mean you can't dance with me?"
"Not at all." Garrett said with a sly grin. "I'm married as well." Faith nodded as she noted the ring on his finger.
"Then we don't have a problem I guess." Faith smiled.
"So, Abigail what do you for a living?" Garrett asked as he slid his hand along her back. Faith shivered with excitement.
"I'm a stripper." She said. Garrett's eyes widened.
"Wow. That's great. I've never met a stripper before." He said.
"Well today is your lucky day then." She said. okay, she had a slight buzz from the single beer that she had, but it was nothing major.
Then why when Garrett pressed his lips to hers she didn't fight? She was welcoming him into her mouth by sliding her tongue into his mouth. it was a fiery kiss. Things could have easily heated up. Alex turned around and saw Faith kissing Garrett. She gasped and smacked her friends back. Faith immediately pulled away.
"What the hell are you doing, Faith?" Alex cried with wide eyes. Faith looked from Alex to Garrett and then back to Alex.
"Oh my god." She wiped her mouth, "I didn't even realize."
"We're so leaving." Alex said grabbing Faith's hand. Faith felt sick to her stomach. She had kissed another man. She didn't mean to. She didn't even realize what she was doing. She had broken vow of marriage. She kissed someone who wasn't her husband.
