Part 14: Break – In

The house was completely trashed. Someone had turned over almost every piece of furniture and had taken out everything from drawers and cupboards.

"Damn it," Bosco swore and took out his cell phone to call the police. "This Officer Boscorelli..."

Having finished his called he carefully guided Faith, who still stood frozen in shock with her hands covering her mouth, back out.

"Come on, let's wait outside!"

Bosco put his arms around a shivering Faith and pulled her close.

"Don't worry, I'm sure it was just a simple burglary," he said, kissing her hair gently.

"Thank god, the kids are with your Mom. I don't even want to imagine what could have happened", she answered, not convinced that it was a burglary.

Bosco himself suspected something else, too much strange things had happened in the last few month. First Faith missed some photos and underwear, then someone manipulated his mustang and now the burglary. And there were a few other thing he didn't tell Faith about. For instance that someone nearly hit him with a car as he was directing traffic after an accident or the shoots fired at him at a murder scene. At first he didn't think it was unusual but if he thought about it, everything happened to him, not to the cop he was partnered up with And Faith had told him she sometimes felt like someone was watching her, but she never saw anyone around.

Next morning;

Bosco had brought Faith over to his mom so she could get some rest. Himself he drove straight back to the house to talk to Swersky. He told him about the things he noticed and then went trough the house to see what was missing.

None of his personal things were missing, only some photos of him were shredded in pieces and someone had torn his clothes.

It was a completely different matter with Faith' things. Some of her underwear was missing, along with the sexier pieces on nightwear, her perfume, hair brush, photos and some dresses.

"This is one sick bastard, what are we gonna do? I don't want to worry Faith, the stress isn't good for the baby. But I don't think all of this is a coincidence. I fear for her safety and that of the kids!"

"Don't worry! We constantly have someone by her side and someone will accompany the kids where ever they are going! And we will find the one responsible for this."

Rose' Home;

Two hours later; Bosco had went to his mom to be with Faith. The kids stayed home from school that day, Faith didn't let them out of her sight for even one second. Now Emily and Charlie sat in front of the TV and played Monopoly. Faith and Bosco sat arm in arm in the couch.

"When is the team ready with your house? I'm gonna come over to help you clean up", Rose said as she handed them mugs with hot chocolate.

"I'm not sure, Mom. But Swersky promised to call me."

"Any idea who did this?"

"No! But I'm gonna get that sick bastard!", Bosco exclaimed before pulling Faith onto his lap and wrapping her in his arms tightly.

Slowly they began kissing, pouring all their love for each other in the kiss. They were so wrapped in each other, in exploring the mouth of the other, they didn't hear the ring of the phone.

"Maurice, it's for you!", Rose called.

"Thanks", Bosco answered, reluctantly taking his hand from the back of Faith neck and letting her slide off his lap.

"Boscorelli!"

"It's Swersky, Bosco! We have found some prints in the house and ran a check. They belong to Martin Roberts, the guy you and Yokas caught down in Jersey. Apparently he escaped a few days after you arrested him."

"What?", he nearly screamed. "How can he be gone for more than six month without someone telling us? And why the hell is he still out there?"

"I don't know why we weren't informed, but I'm gonna find the ones responsibly for the mistake. It seems that they have no leads on him, no one saw him or heard from him. But now we can at least be sure that he is in New York. I'll give a description to all RMP's. I'm sure we'll find him soon. Perhaps you two want to take some time off?"

"Yeah, thanks boss. That would be great! We'll be back to work in a few days"

Somewhere in New York;

Martin Roberts wandered trough the streets of New York. All attempts at killing Bosco failed, the guy had more life's than a cat. Not knowing what to do about it he decided to concentrate on Faith. When he had the woman Bosco would surly come after her. So why not making it easier in himself. Now he only needed a chance to get Faith.

He had been near the house as Bosco and Faith came home last night and he had also seen the cops who swarmed the place. It would be more difficult to get near them now, but Martin wasn't dump. He knew that everyone was more suspicious now but he also knew that if he only waited the incident would be forgotten and everything would get back to normal. That would be his chance and he would be ready.
