Bosco did not understand this girl. The first couple times they met she seemed interested. Then earlier today it seemed like she really didn't care. Then all the flirting with Ty and now she wanted to go with him?
Bosco: What?
Angela: I'm just saying I'd really rather sit at home and watch Sports Center then getting drunk with those guys in there.
Bosco: You watch Sports Center?
Angela: What like you think it's forbidden for girls or something?
Bosco: No.
Angela: Well I'm gonna go get my jacket. Then we'll go to your place.
Bosco: Allright.
Angela went back inside and said bye to everyone. Kim couldn't believe that she was actually going home with Bosco. Angela didn't say she was, but everyone knew that's why she was leaving. Angela thought that her and Bosco's relationship would just be a friendship. She wasn't falling for him and didn't have those kinds of feelings for him. All she wanted to know was what he had that other jerks like him didn't have. What set him apart? She walked out of the bar and followed Bosco to his car.
Bosco: This is it.
Just what she expected a vintage Mustang. Maybe there wasn't anything different about him. She was definitely PMSing. She kept changing her mind about Bosco. They rode to his apartment in silence. She kind of felt uncomfortable. Like maybe she shouldn't be there. She just stared out of the window and waited. He parked on the side of the street and they got out. He led her up. She noticed that he held the door open for her and that confused her. She hoped he didn't expect sex or even a kiss. Cause he wasn't getting it. Not from her. His apartment was nice enough. Masculine. He put the keys on a table by the door.
Bosco: You want a beer?
Angela: Actually do you have coke?
The last thing she wanted was to get buzzed enough that she might do something. He headed into the kitchen while she waited in the living room. In the kitchen Bosco thought about why she was here. He knew that sex was out of the question. Something about her made him know what she wanted. But right now all he knew was what she didn't want. She flirted, but not enough to want sex. Maybe just a kiss? He went back into the living room with two cokes. He put them on the coffee table and turned on the TV.
Bosco: So Sports Center?
Angela: It's 12:14. Sports Center is over.
Maybe she did want sex.
Bosco: So you want to watch something?
She grabbed the remote out of his hands and turned the TV off. They sat in complete darkness.
Angela: No I don't want to watch anything.
Oh she definitely wanted sex. Bosco moved in. He was getting his chance. Ty might've gotten some flirting but he did not get what Bosco was in for. In the darkness Angela didn't notice Bosco's face coming at her. He was so close to her that when she talked the lips touched.
Angela: Let's just talk.
Oh my God. His lips were so soft. Oh dear lord. She had to contain herself. But he was so cute. God who was she kidding he was hot. The cutest guy she had ever seen. But that wasn't enough. No it wasn't he had to be kind, and funny, and be good with kids. Oh what was wrong with her? She didn't feel that way about him. But now in the dark with the most beautiful man ever it was hard not to feel anything. Bosco was stunned. Talk?! Right that's exactly what he wanted to do right now. He was looking forward to bragging rights with Ty. He really didn't understand this girl. He backed up, but noticed that she didn't.
Bosco: Right. Talk.
Angela: Yeah talk.
Where the hell was this sexual tension coming from? She did not feel that way. She wanted to talk. Maybe later she'd kiss him. But no, no she wouldn't. She had to leave. To go. But she wanted to know about him. And that wasn't the only thing she wanted to know. She wanted to know how great a kisser he was. She wanted to know what he did after sex. What he did during it. What was wrong with her? They sat in silence for a while.
Angela: OK so this isn't gonna work. I'm just gonna leave. Sorry. Thanks for hav--
Bosco: I thought you wanted to talk?
Bosco got up and turned on the light. He opened both the cokes and sat on another chair. He really wanted to talk. He had only ever really talked to Faith and he wanted to be able to talk to someone else. He just wanted someone else. Someone other than Faith, who treated him like a kid. Maybe Angela would be that someone. He wished she'd be that someone.
Angela: Yeah. OK let's talk.
And they did. They talked for hours. Went through 10 cans of coke. They had so much caffeine running through them that sleep didn't even seem to be an option. They talked about sports, their jobs, lots of things. Nothing too personal. They laughed a lot. When Bosco got up to get another soda he came back to find Angela gone. But she wasn't gone. Just in the bathroom.
Angela: Too much soda.
She said when she came back. She sat down and yawned. They talked a little more, but it was obvious the both of them were getting tired.
Angela: It's cold in here. Do you have a blanket or something?
Bosco: Yeah I'll go get it.
When he came back, she was sleeping. Bosco couldn't help but notice how different girls looked when they were sleeping. He hadn't seen a lot of them sleeping without seeing them naked first. In fact he couldn't think of any. He put the blanket over her and for a second was tempted to kiss her. Just a peck on the forehead. But he couldn't even bring himself to do that. Instead he put the soda in the trash and went into his bedroom. The next morning Bosco smelled bacon. He had to think a while before he remembered that Angela had stayed the night. He went out in his boxers to find Angela in the kitchen. She was listening to the radio and dancing. She flipped around and saw Bosco staring at her.
Angela: Hey sleepyhead. You sure can sleep.
Bosco: What time is it?
Angela: Almost 11. You didn't have anything in your fridge so I went out and got some food. Eggs and bacon, my specialty.
Bosco: It smells good.
Bosco walked into the kitchen and poured himself some of Ang's store bought orange juice. She shimmied over to him and kissed him on the cheek.
Angela: Good morning.
It took Bosco by surprise. He just smiled back. They sat down and enjoyed breakfast. It was good. Eggs were easy enough to make. Angela had woken up in the middle of the night and didn't know where she was. When she figured it out, she took off her bra and pants and fell back asleep. She felt really comfortable at Bosco's place. In the morning she got up and went out for breakfast. They ate breakfast in silence. Angela couldn't help but notice Bosco's jaw when he chewed. Sexy.
Angela: Sports Center at eleven.
Bosco: Let's bring this to the living room.
And they did bring their breakfast in front of the TV. They watched and ate until it was over.
Angela: There is no way I'm gonna have time to go and shower before work. Can I use your shower? I'll be fast.
Bosco: Yeah go ahead. I'll clean up in here.
Bosco went in and took a shower after Angela. She put on the same pants from last night. And just took a shirt from Bosco. They both got ready fast.
Bosco: Ready?
Angela: Yeah.
They walked downstairs and to Bosco's car. Bosco couldn't believe that he didn't sleep with her and yet it was the one of the best times he had alone with a girl. With anyone for that matter. Bosco parked and they both got out of the car. Ty had been rounding the corner and saw all of this. So did Kim who was looking from the firehouse. Bosco and Angela hugged said goodbye and went their separate ways. Ty ran up to catch up with Bosco.
Ty: Hey Boz wait up.
Bosco: Hey Ty.
Ty: Hey Ty? What you say that like you didn't score?
Bosco: I didn't.
Ty: Right and you just left with her and gave a ride to work b/c you're a gentlemen.
Bosco just walked away. A first. He walked into the locker room and began putting on his uniform. Back at the firehouse Angela was humming "I touch myself". She walked past the bucket boys without saying anything to go change. When she was alone she started singing.
Angela: When I think about you I touch myself. Oh O Oh. I don't want anybody else. Oh no oh no.
Kim: You sing--
Angela let out a scream before Kim could even finish.
Angela: Holy shit, Kim. Talk about early heart attack. Damn you scared me.
Kim: Sorry easy target.
Angela: So sorry I cut you off. Please finish.
Kim: I was just asking if you were singing about Bosco? When you think about him you touch yourself.
Angela: Bosco?! No the song was on the radio I was just singing it. Stuck in my head.
Kim: Right? I can't help but notice but aren't those the pants from last night? And that looks a lot like an NYPD shirt.
Angela: So you can't repeat pants? And I'm just trying to show my support. We DO have to work with them.
Kim: And is Bosco your personal taxi? How do you explain that one?
Angela: I don't
Kim: C'mon you can tell me.
Angela: Tell you what?
Kim: I know Bosco's a good kisser. But what is he like in...
Angela: Whoa wait what?
Kim: What?
Angela: Bosco's a good kisser?
Kim: Right like you don't know.
Angela: I don't know. How do you know?
Kim: Oh. Are you and him like more serious? I just thought that you just messed around.
Angela: So did you mess around with Bosco?
Kim: No.
Angela: Then how do you know he's a good kisser?
Kim: Um...It's just...Look Ang it was a long time ago. It didn't mean anything. Are you guys like serious?
Angela: Yeah. Seriously friends. That's it. Yeah I slept at his house but that's just it. I slept. Nothing more.
Kim believed her. Angela finished getting ready and went down to watch TV.
Doc: Hey Angela what are you doing? We got a call.
Angela: Sorry. I'm coming.
Angela went down to the bus. She saw Bosco and a girl cop get into an RMP. Bosco waved and Angela smiled at him. In the RMP Faith just looked at Bosco. So that was who Ty was talking about. She should've guessed it. Bosco had walked into the locker room with Ty hurrying to catch up saying something about Bosco getting laid. Well what a surprise. Add another one to his list Faith thought.
Faith: So you have fun last night?
Bosco: More than I expected.
Faith: So you didn't expect to have sex?
Bosco: No.
Faith: Are you two dating or what?
Bosco: What the hell are you talking about Faith?
Faith: That paramedic.
Bosco: What about her?
Faith: You slept with her. I want to know whether you're going out with her or it was a one-night stand.
Bosco: I swear is that all anyone thinks I do?
Faith: I think we went over this.
Bosco: Right and arrest people.
Faith: So...
Bosco: I didn't sleep with her.
Faith: So then what was Ty talking about?
Bosco: I don't know.
Radio: 55 David. Respond to 10-29 domestic disturbances at 462 5th street apt 2c
Faith: 55 David. 462 5th street Apt 2C.
Bosco flipped on the lights and pushed down the accelerator.
Flash to Doc and Angela, who is still humming I touch myself. They had already taken care of their other call.
Doc: What is that?
Angela: Where?
Doc: No what song are you humming?
Angela: Oh you know... When I think about you I touch myself.
Doc: I never understood that song.
Angela: Well I think it's about masturbation. Yeah, I'm pretty sure. I touch myself.
Radio: Adam 55-3. Respond to police assistance. 462 Fifth Street Apt 2C
Doc copied Bosco, turning on the lights and pressing the accelerator. When they got to their location they both jumped out of the bus. Doc led the way up the stairs. As they got closer they could hear a baby crying and a woman screaming. Doc opened the door. The scene was a mess. A man was lying on the ground with blood all over him. The screaming woman was sitting next to him. Bosco was looking on as Faith tried to calm the baby down.
Screaming woman: Oh I didn't mean it. Please. Don't die. I love you baby. Please I'll take it back.
Doc: What happened?
Bosco: The guy hit her and she attacked him with a steak knife.
Angela: A steak knife?
Doc and Angela quickly made their way to the victim. They checked for a pulse, but found none.
Doc: How long since she stabbed him?
Bosco: When did you stab him?
Screaming woman: I don't know. I can't remember. I'm sorry.
Doc: This guy is dead. He's freezing. It's been a while.
Angela quickly got up to check on the baby. Doc called it in. Bosco walked over to Faith and Angela.
Bosco: She allright?
Angela: Yeah. Maybe just hungry.
Faith: Well I guess I'll arrest her then.
Faith walked over to the woman who was then being looked over by Doc to ask some questions.
Bosco: Hey.
Angela: Hi.
Bosco: My partner thinks we slept together. So does Ty.
Angela: Kim thinks so too. What's your partner's name?
Bosco: Faith.
Angela: We never got introduced.
Bosco: You don't really need to know her.
Angela: Just you?
Angela put the baby back into the playpen and walked over to the screaming woman, Doc, and Faith with Bosco.
Angela: Faith?
Faith: Yeah?
Angela: I'm Angela.
Faith: I know. Nice to meet you.
Angela: Properly.
Faith: Yeah.
An hour later the scene was cleared. Doc and Angela were back in their bus and Faith and Bosco were back in their RMP.
The rest of the day Angela and Bosco did not meet up again. At the end of the shift Bosco dressed out quickly hoping he could give her a ride home.
Sully: In a rush Bosco?
Bosco: Yeah
He said as he flew out the door. Angela had already changed out but was talking with the bucket boys. She was hoping to give Bosco some time to give her a ride.
Jimmy: So did you sleep with Bosco?
The rest of the firefighters quieted down. They all knew the hotshot cop Jimmy was talking about. They just couldn't believe that their Angela would fall for an ass like that one.
Angela: Why don't you just make a sign for the Empire State Building?
Jimmy: So you did?
Angela: No I didn't.
DK: But you would?
Angela: Oh my god. I am not talking about this. Good night boys.
She walked downstairs and wondered if it was Kim that told. But her better judgment was that Carlos had said something. Bosco was waiting for her out there.
Angela: Hey. You could've come up.
Bosco: No thanks. We don't exactly get along.
He was motioning towards the engine meaning the firefighters. Angela had just thought about how she didn't want to spend another night alone in New York.
Angela: You wanna eat?
Bosco: Sure. What do you feel like?
Angela: I know. But it's a surprise.
Bosco: A surprise? Should I be scared?
Angela: Terrified. I'm gonna cook for you.
Bosco: Cook?
Angela: Yeah.
Bosco: No way You cooked breakfast I'll cook dinner.
Angela: Actually I'm not feeling quite so hungry anymore.
They laughed.
Bosco: My place?
Angela: Definitely.
On the way there they told each other about their days. Crazy criminals and diabetic chocolate lovers. When they got to his house Angela got the drinks this time. Beer. Tonight they talked about more serious things. Old relationships, high school. And when Angela fell asleep she fell asleep in Bosco's bed. They woke up next to each other. And Angela had to admit that she liked waking up to him.
She finally figured out what Bosco had that other jerks didn't. He cared. She could tell. The way he covered her and didn't take advantage. She was starting to fall for him. She didn't understand that. That morning was the same only their breakfast was cereal and Angela had a change of clothes.
They were early for work so they just stood by the car talking about what they would change about their lives. Bosco said he'd change his past and Angela didn't press on. She knew it was too soon to open old wounds. Angela said she'd change the fact that she didn't go to college.
Saying goodbye was more awkward. They both wanted more than a hug. But they settled for it.
Around four Doc and Angela took lunch. They went to Drew's where they found Sully, Ty, Faith and Bosco. Bosco and Angela both still weren't satisfied with their goodbye. After getting introduced to Sully, Angela sat down next to Bosco. Everyone noticed the tension between them, but no one said anything. Only glances were passed. The group ate and told Angela the craziest things they'd had been called for. But Angela's mind was still on the cute cop sitting next to her. She couldn't stop thinking about him. And Bosco couldn't stop thinking about her.
She got up to use the bathroom and when she got out of the crapper Bosco was waiting for her. They just stared at each other. All along their friendship had just consisted of talking and now they both wanted more. Only they didn't know what each other was thinking.
Bosco: I was just waiting.
Angela: Yeah. I was just going.
Their laughter broke the tension a little.
Bosco: So...
Angela: Maybe we should go to my place tonight give the scenery a little change.
Bosco: Sounds like a plan.
Angela: Yeah.
Quiet. They were both resting on opposite parts of the wall. But know Angela couldn't take any longer. She moved into Bosco. They moved in unision. Her hands rested on his chest and his wrapped around her face. They leaned in.
Bosco: What are we doing?
Angela: I don't know but it feels so right.
Closer and closer and...
Bosco: What?
Angela: I'm just saying I'd really rather sit at home and watch Sports Center then getting drunk with those guys in there.
Bosco: You watch Sports Center?
Angela: What like you think it's forbidden for girls or something?
Bosco: No.
Angela: Well I'm gonna go get my jacket. Then we'll go to your place.
Bosco: Allright.
Angela went back inside and said bye to everyone. Kim couldn't believe that she was actually going home with Bosco. Angela didn't say she was, but everyone knew that's why she was leaving. Angela thought that her and Bosco's relationship would just be a friendship. She wasn't falling for him and didn't have those kinds of feelings for him.

Bosco: I thought you wanted to talk?
Bosco got up and turned on the light. He opened both the cokes and sat on another chair. He really wanted to talk. He had only ever really talked to Faith and he wanted to be able to talk to someone else. He just wanted someone else. Someone other than Faith, who treated him like a kid. Maybe Angela would be that someone. He wished she'd be that someone.
Angela: Yeah. OK let's talk.
And they did. They talked for hours. Went through 10 cans of coke. They had so much caffeine running through them that sleep didn't even seem to be an option.

The rest of the firefighters quieted down. They all knew the hotshot cop Jimmy was talking about. They just couldn't believe that their Angela would fall for an ass like that one.
Angela: Why don't you just make a sign for the Empire State Building?
Jimmy: So you did?
Angela: No I didn't.
DK: But you would?
Angela: Oh my god. I am not talking about this. Good night boys.
She walked downstairs and wondered if it was Kim that told. But her better judgment was that Carlos had said something. Bosco was waiting for her out there.
Angela: Hey. You could've come up.
Bosco: No thanks. We don't exactly get along.
He was motioning towards the engine meaning the firefighters. Angela had just thought about how she didn't want to spend another night alone in New York.
Angela: You wanna eat?
Bosco: Sure. What do you feel like?
Angela: I know. But it's a surprise.
Bosco: A surprise? Should I be scared?
Angela: Terrified. I'm gonna cook for you.
Bosco: Cook?
Angela: Yeah.
Bosco: No way You cooked breakfast I'll cook dinner.
Angela: Actually I'm not feeling quite so hungry anymore.
They laughed.
Bosco: My place?
Angela: Definitely.
On the way there they told each other about their days. Crazy criminals and diabetic chocolate lovers. When they got to his house Angela got the drinks this time. Beer. Tonight they talked about more serious things. Old relationships, high school. And when Angela fell asleep she fell asleep in Bosco's bed. They woke up next to each other. And Angela had to admit that she liked waking up to him.
She finally figured out what Bosco had that other jerks didn't. He cared. She could tell. The way he covered her and didn't take advantage. She was starting to fall for him. She didn't understand that. That morning was the same only their breakfast was cereal and Angela had a change of clothes.
They were early for work so they just stood by the car talking about what they would change about their lives. Bosco said he'd change his past and Angela didn't press on. She knew it was too soon to open old wounds. Angela said she'd change the fact that she didn't go to college.
Saying goodbye was more awkward. They both wanted more than a hug. But they settled for it.
Around four Doc and Angela took lunch. They went to Drew's where they found Sully, Ty, Faith and Bosco. Bosco and Angela both still weren't satisfied with their goodbye. After getting introduced to Sully, Angela sat down next to Bosco. Everyone noticed the tension between them, but no one said anything. Only glances were passed. The group ate and told Angela the craziest things they'd had been called for. But Angela's mind was still on the cute cop sitting next to her. She couldn't stop thinking about him. And Bosco couldn't stop thinking about her.
She got up to use the bathroom and when she got out of the crapper Bosco was waiting for her. They just stared at each other. All along their friendship had just consisted of talking and now they both wanted more. Only they didn't know what each other was thinking.
Bosco: I was just waiting.
Angela: Yeah. I was just going.
Their laughter broke the tension a little.
Bosco: So...
Angela: Maybe we should go to my place tonight give the scenery a little change.
Bosco: Sounds like a plan.
Angela: Yeah.
Quiet. They were both resting on opposite parts of the wall. But know Angela couldn't take any longer. She moved into Bosco. They moved in unision. Her hands rested on his chest and his wrapped around her face. They leaned in.
Bosco: What are we doing?
Angela: I don't know but it feels so right.
Closer and closer and...
