Bosco spent almost 2 weeks in the hospital before the doctor finally agreed to releasing him. He suffered a few more panic attacks during the nights while he was there but denied that he was having them and claimed they were just bad dreams. Faith was there with him during his physiotherapy sessions so she would be able to him when he got home and had to it on his own. During the last few days of him being in the hospital he and Faith had made the arrangements for his ma's and Mikey's funeral that would be held on Sunday. Swersky and Cruz came the night before he went home to tell him that the search for his father and Donald Mann were officially being called off because they were in the wind and more then likely no longer in the state, but they would keep their eyes and ears open for any news. Bosco didn't take it lightly and argued that they should still have it on heavy investigation, but all they could say is that Donald Mann would eventually come back to New York for business reasons.
Slowly and quietly Bosco made his way from Sully and Davis's RMP to his apartment. Once inside his apartment Bosco paused and looked around never really realizing just lonely it looks.
"Where do you want these?"
Bosco turned around remembering that Sully and Davis had followed him. He looked Sully who pointing to his duffel bag with clothes it and a paper bag with prescriptions. Bosco took the bags from him.
"Thanks" He carried the bags over to his bedroom and placed it on the floor beside his dresser. Noticing a picture of his family one of the very few he had. He thought back to when it was taken, only a few short months before his life went to hell. Before his dad left for good, before his brother tried drugs for the first time, and before his mother became a heavy drinker .
"Hey, you want us to stick around until Faith gets here? She said she might be a few hours" Davis said from the hallway just by the living room.
Bosco walked around to the door frame of his room and used it as a leaning post beginning to feel tired from the journey. "No, you guys have done enough, besides your on duty." Bosco lent his head back against the wall feeling a little dizzy.
Davis walked up to Bosco noticing his action "Maybe you should sit down before you fall over or something" Davis guided him to Bosco's bed without a struggle since it was the closest place to sit "You sure cause we could call ourselves out of service I'm sure Swersky won't mind."
Bosco shook head no as he laid back on the bed. "Davis I'll be alright by myself. I'm just going to lay down and more than likely fall asleep."
Davis watched Bosco close his eyes "Alright man then give us a call if you need anything, you got my cell number right?"
"Yeah" Bosco said sleepily.
"Okay well then we'll just get going, take it easy man."
Davis and Sully walked back to the RMP and informed central that they were back in service. Sully looked over at Davis when they got into the RMP and saw how he kept his focus on the apartment building even though you couldn't see Bosco's apartment from they were.
"You want to stay outside the building?" Sully asked already knowing the answer.
"Yeah man. After what Faith told us, I don't think we should of left him alone up there."
Sully thought back to the last time he saw Bosco have panic attacks, remembering how had absolutely no motor controls. He thought back that if he had been in that RMP by himself when was driving it he probably crashed and either killed himself or someone. "Yeah I know what you mean."
"Really? How?"
Sully adjusted himself in the seat. "He had panic attacks before. I was with him both times."
"Oh yeah when was that" Davis looked back him curiously.
"When you were off, cause you got shot. First one was when he was chasing a perp, and once when he was driving this car. We almost crashed into a couple cars and then a telephone poll."
Davis looked from Sully back to the building. "Damn, you think we should go back up there?"
"I don't know."
Close to 3 hours passed and Davis was about to go up stairs to check on Bosco when Faith finally showed up and knocked on the window. Davis rolled down the window.
"Hey Faith"
"Hey guys. You been out here the whole time?" Faith asked.
"Yeah you know just in case. I was about to go up there and check on him." Davis said and saw Faith nod at what he said "You want us to stick around out here?"
"No you guys can get out of here, your probably bored." She said with a smile.
"Oh yeah because handing out the occasional parking ticket is a thrill." Sully said with sarcasm. Faith just laughed and said her goodbyes and walked up to Bosco's apartment.
Faith walked into a quiet apartment and carefully closing the door behind her not wanting to disturb Bosco. She then removed her shoes and placed them down quietly. Walking to his room Faith stopped at the doorframe to find Bosco fast asleep. She walked into his room and picked up the paper bag and contemplated on waking him so he could sleep through the night, but decided to leave him for a while since this seemed to be the most comfortable sleep he's had in a while.
An hour went by and Faith switched from watching TV to picking up things that were around the apartment and then reading the specific instructions left by his doctor, before she finally decided it would be best to wake Bosco up. When Faith got to the door frame she was surprise to see Bosco already awake just lying there staring up at the ceiling.
"Your awake." Faith said from the door frame.
Bosco turned his head quickly to face her startled out of his thoughts. "Yeah, for awhile now."
"Do you need anything?"
Bosco shook his head no and Faith made her way closer to him. "Well how about some company then?"
Faith sat on the opposite side of Bosco on the bed.
"How did it go today?" Bosco asked not making eye contact with Faith.
"Good. Everything is set up." Faith paused looking from Bosco down to the mattress and played with the sheets. "You sure your okay to do this tomorrow?"
Bosco slowly got up into a sitting position by swinging his legs over the side of the bed so his back was facing Faith. "Yeah." Bosco then pulled himself up off the bed wincing at the pain it caused.
"Where you going?" Faith asked watching him gingerly walk out of the room.
"Bathroom."
Faith watched from the hall as he closed the door behind him.
Bosco turned the cold water on and scooped up some water in his hands, splashed some on his face and dragged his hands through his hair. Looking in the mirror in front of him, he could feel his chest becoming tight and breathing becoming labored knowing what was happening and remembering how he knew could control it. Bosco lent over on the sink for support closing his eyes trying to concentrate on breathing normally.
