God he makes me so angry sometimes. Hell I know I screw up but what does he think he is? An angel? Hah what a joke. My screw ups are nothing compared to some of his over the years. The only difference is he always knows how to cover it up and save his ass.
Dammit what the hell have I done? My mouth has always gotten me into the worst trouble and now's no different. Offering to transfer out of the strike team. What was I thinking? Oh that's right I wasn't thinking, I was just so pissed that I shot off my mouth as usual without any thought to what was coming out.
I wonder if I surprised him with that one, even just a little. It didn't seem like it with the way he snapped right back but you can never tell with Vic. Not even me and I've been working with him for years now.
He's just been such an asshole lately and I'm always getting the blame for everything that goes wrong in his life. Yeah ok I could probably cut him some slack since it looks like his whole life is falling apart around him. I felt bad when he finally told me Corrine had left with the kids. They're his life, he does all this shit for them. To make their lives better and this is how she repays him. Damn that's cold.
He's probably expecting me to come crawling back begging for my job back but I'm not going to dammit. I'm sick and tired of being his whipping boy, I deserve some respect occasionally and if it takes transferring out of here to get it then maybe that's what I have to do.
He's off doing god knows what with his old partner anyway, probably couldn't care less about what's going on with us so fine if that's the way he wants to play it then screw it he can go find someone else to back him up.

Vic got shot. I can't believe it. The mans always seemed indestructible, nothing can touch him,
But he was shot because I wasn't there to back him up.
That idiot Joe didn't even have a weapon on him, he just stood there and watched Vic bleed all over the ground, what sort of cop is he anyway?
Fuck if it were up to me the guy could hang for all I care but Vic asked me to keep him out of trouble so clean it up I will. It's strange, our roles have been reversed. Usually it would be Vic cleaning up after my mess not me cleaning up his. I know everyone thinks of me as a screw up and Vic's lackey nothing else but I know how to get things done when I need to and right now nothing is going to stop me from doing what he asked me to. Nothing.

He told me that when we retire he'd teach me how to play golf and we'd play every day. Looks like he's forgiven me without me even having to ask. But then it's always been like that between us. No matter what we say or do we always know that we'll be there for each other when the shit hits the fan which it usually does.
OK so it's usually Vic bailing me out of shit but I've helped him out of a few scrapes over the years and he knows I'd do anything for him just like I know he'd do anything for me.
The idea that I could have lost Vic today came as a huge shock but also a wakeup call which I have no intention of ignoring. From now on I'll be sticking to Vic like glue, I'm not going to lose him now, not after all we've been through together.
Besides I've gotta learn to play golf haven't I?
