Faith looked at Bosco confused by his question. "What do you mean?"
Bosco played with the rim of the glass for second before continuing. "Why do you want to be here, with me?"
Unsure of how to answer his question, Faith moved her up beside Bosco. "Because I don't think you should have to do this alone."
Bosco looked up at Faith who had her eyes locked on him. "Thanks" Bosco said while trying to hold back his emotions, remembering the last time she said that to him.
Faith wrapped her arm around Bosco's shoulders pulling him in close to her using her other hand to hold his head against her shoulder. Faith smiled lightly to herself when she felt one of his tears fall down her arm.
"Here's your piece."
"It's been fun boys, but I must be moving on." Lloyd told Anthony and Lester with a smile.
Lester watched as Lloyd left and walked up to Anthony. "What's on your mind Anthony?"
Anthony turned to face him. "What if they suspect us?"
"Well they don't have any proof that we are involved. If they try to convict us then we'll fight them." Lester said and patted him on the back. "And then my friend we will be even more rich. I'll catch you later." He said while leaving the apartment.
Anthony watched as the door closed with a bad feeling about what he got himself involved in.
Faith laid beside a sleeping Bosco with her arm still wrapped around his upper torso. Looking at him sleeping so close to her she found it difficult to take her eyes off of him and was amazed at how comfortable it felt to be this close with him. Faith let eyes travel his bare chest feeling herself blush at the sight she took her attention back to his face when she felt him roll in closer to her and bury his face in her hair that was spread out on the pillow. Faith continued taking in the beautiful sight in front of her until a knock at the door interrupted her. Faith carefully pulled her arm out from under him making sure she didn't wake him and then gingerly got off the bed. Another knock caused Bosco to stir a little so she quicken the pace so she could return to the same sight.
Faith opened the door at the third knock. "Hold on." She mumbled to her as opened it.
Faith stood with her mouth practically dropped to the floor and had to take a second to recollect herself because of how surprised she was to see who was at the door. "Mr. Boscorelli, hi."
Anthony looked back at Faith with nearly the same shock. "Uh, Faith right?"
"Yeah." Faith said stepping out the door and slightly closed it so she wouldn't wake Bosco.
"I…uh…I wasn't sure if anyone would be here." He started nervously when he saw Faith's confused expression on her face to why he would think that nobody would be here.
"Do you want to come in and say Hi" Faith asked politely.
"Say hi to who?"
Faith looked at him really curiously now. "Uh… to your son."
Anthony looked at her as if he was seeing a ghost. "He…he's alive." He whisper lowly to himself.
Faith caught what he said and reached behind back to her off duty gun wondering why he would say something like.
"Uh…I have to go." Anthony said quickly and turned to leave.
Faith instincts kicked in and she pulled out her gun. "Hold up Anthony."
Anthony kept walking a little further. "I said hold up." Faith said a little louder and cocking her gun. Anthony stopped at the sound. "Get on your knees and put your hands behind your head."
Faith walked up him pulling out cell phone at the same time dialing the number to the precinct.
"Yeah, this is Officer Yokas. I'm going to need lieutenant Swersky and cops on 82nd between 2nd and 3rd apartment 1448. It's involving an off duty police officer's case." Faith put away her keeping her gun drawn on Anthony.
About 3 minutes later Sully and Davis along with Lieutenant Swersky showed up.
"Faith. What's going on?" Davis asked walking fast down the hall when he saw her aiming her gun at Anthony.
Faith put her gun away as soon as she saw Davis. "I think he might have something to do with Bosco's kidnapping."
Anthony thought about what Lester said earlier. "You don't any proof that I did it."
"Yeah, well we will see about that."
"Alright, just hold up." Davis said to Faith. "First of all what makes you think he's involved."
"He came knocking on the door expecting no one to be there, then said 'He's not dead?' and tried to get away." Faith said.
Swersky was also listening to what Faith was saying. "Alright we'll take him in and see what we can get from him. Where's Bosco now?"
"He's fine, he's sleeping." Faith said calmly.
"Stay with him Faith. We already got Donald Mann I'm sure there's nothing here to worry about."
Faith closed the apartment door leaning her head against it while locking it she closed her eyes feeling a pit of fear in the back her mind telling her that this is far from being over. Faith's thoughts were interrupted when she heard a soft cry in the background after taking a moment to register the fact that someone was crying inside the apartment she realized it was Bosco. Faith quickly turned the corner to find Bosco curled up in a ball trembling and crying in his sleeping, taking a second to hold her own emotions back she went to the side of the bed and gently placed a hand on the side of Bosco's head stroking his hair.
"Boz, it's okay I'm here" Faith said and watched as Bosco buried his face in his pillow while shedding a few more tears still asleep. Faith rested hand on Bosco's forearm and kneeled beside the bed resting her head just in front of his arm on the mattress.
"God Boz why don't you just let me take away the pain." She whispered while caressing his forearm with her thumb. Faith stayed there until he stopped crying and trembling and then got up and went to the kitchen to make herself some coffee.
Lester watched as Cruz left the room leaving him alone with Anthony. "What the hell were doing going to his place?" he said as quietly as possible.
"I wanted to know if he somehow made it out of there alive, and obviously he did."
Lester let out a deep breath relaxing a little from what has happened. Looking at Anthony he smiled. "Well I guess we get our chance to make more money."
"How's that?"
"We'll fight this. Put you and Officer Boscorelli on the stand and just let me do all the work. Trust me I'm good at making him look like a fool, he has said it himself." Lester said.
Anthony nodded in agreement. "So what's going to happen with me."
"Just lay low and don't open your mouth anymore about this."
Faith brought her coffee with her as she walked back towards Bosco's room pausing at the door frame again when she saw he was awake but lying on his back staring up at the ceiling.
"I woke up to a voice that said something about a road trip." Bosco started as if sensing her silent presence. Faith moved in realizing what he was talking about and took her usual spot on the bed to listen. "The next thing I knew was someone put a cloth over my face that must have had some kind of drug on it because I passed out."
Faith looked down at him encouraging him to continue. "Then what?" She whispered.
"I woke up in a dark basement, I had no idea where I was. Some guy I think his name was Darren was cutting away my shirt and bandages, then he kicked me." Bosco stopped to take a second to compose himself before continuing. "He was looking…uhh…for." Bosco stopped when he remembered the horrible images of the tape.
Faith put a hand on his arm. "It's okay keep going." She said softly.
"He took out this video tape. Faith he made a video. He made me watch it Faith." Bosco said now in tears.
Faith looked at him confused at what he meant. "What did you watch?"
"He made a tape of…of Mikey's death. God Faith he made me watch it." Bosco sobbed as Faith took him into a hug. "I can still hear him screaming, I can still hear him."
"Shh its okay, its okay" Faith soothed as she held onto him. Holding his head against her she kissed his forehead as he continued to cry in her arms.
Bosco played with the rim of the glass for second before continuing. "Why do you want to be here, with me?"
Unsure of how to answer his question, Faith moved her up beside Bosco. "Because I don't think you should have to do this alone."
