Back to the NYPD 6

Miami

As Bosco gets to the terminal, Eddie is there with him. Ready to say goodbye to the guy that saved his life only a few short hours ago.

"Mo? Where you gonna go man? You don't have a place to stay when you get there do you man?" Eddie asks kinda disappointed that Bosco is leaving.

"Yeah I do Eddie, I can stay with my Ma for a bit until I get a place of my own. There's a woman there that means a lot to me as well. I'm sure they can help me out too. Don't worry Ed. I'll be fine buddy." Bosco says as he picks up his bags.

"Now Eddie remember, you'll send the rest of my stuff to me tomorrow right?" Bosco asks with a smirk on his face.

"Yes Mo, tomorrow it's on it way. Um Mo" Eddie says kinda shyly.

"What is it Eddie"

"Thanks for everything man. I'll never forget you." Eddie says as he shakes Bosco's hand.

"Your welcome Eddie, you're not too bad yourself." Bosco says and shakes back.

Ding Dong Ding "Flight 555 to New York. You can board your plane now." Comes over the loud speaker.

"Okay Ed that's me. The ads, posters, and plans for the Nike people are in my office. All you have to do is pitch them our ideas and you'll be fine. The promotion I was supposed to get will go to you buddy. I sorted it out with the Warner people today. Good luck with everything, and remember to send my stuff to me tomorrow."

"Thanks Mo, and I will." he says as Bosco takes off to board his plane.

"Oh and Eddie? From now on it's Bosco. Not Mo." Bosco says with a smile and goes to his plane.

New York

Faith's shift has ended. They really have not gotten anywhere and don't have any leads as to who might have killed Rose. Faith is still sitting at her desk when Lt. Swersky walks into her office.

"Faith, it's late. You should get going. It's been a tough and interesting day. You should go home and get some rest. We'll get back at it tomorrow. There's nothing more to do tonight." Swersky says as he puts a smug smile on his face and a hand on Faith's shoulder.

"I know Boss, thanks." Faith says as she puts on her jacket and walks out of her office. As she does, she sees Ty and Sully coming out of the locker room at the same time, both laughing at each other.

"Hey guys. What's so funny?" Faith asks as she catches up to them.

"Oh nothing. We were just telling each other some Bosco stories. We're just happy that he's coming back. Have you got a hold of him yet?" Ty asks.

"No not yet" Faith frowns.

"Well… me and Ty are going to Haggerty's. You're more than welcome to join us if you want to Faith." Sully says.

"Umm no guys, thanks. I think I am gonna head over to Rose's house and clean up some things. Try and see if I can finds some leads as to who might have done this." She bites her bottom lip and gives a pleading look to them like she wanted some help.

"Well okay. Lets go pick up a case of beer, some wine and we will help you do that." Ty says.

"Water for me guys." Sully chimes in.

"Thanks guys. It really means a lot. I don't think I could do this alone." Faith says.

Ty and Sully both smile as they walk out of the house. They all pile into Sully's car and head over to Rose's house.

………………………………………………..

Bosco is standing outside of the airport trying to hail down a Cab. He hasn't called anyone to tell them that he's home. They've all probably seen CNN and know that he's coming. So he just thought that he would go to his Ma's house and surprise her that he's home. Stay with her for a while. Then first thing in the morning go to Faith's apartment and do something he should have done long ago.

Bosco whistles as he sees a yellow cab coming towards him. The cab stops and Bosco puts his bags in the trunk. He gets in and gives the driver his destination.

The cabby keeps looking in his mirror at Bosco with a puzzled look on his face. "Can I help you with something buddy?" Bosco asks the driver.

"No sir. You just look familiar that's all. I can't put my finger on it, but I've seen you before." the cabby says with a tough Brooklyn accent.

"I don't think so man. I have not been in this city in a long time." Bosco says with a smug look on his face.

"Wait a minute. Yes, yes you're that cop that everyone is talking about. The guy that was on CNN today. Welcome back man. You're great." the cabby says, happy that he figured it out.

"Oh well, it was nothing." Bosco says and looks out the window. He's happy he's back in New York. To the city he loves. To the job that he loves, and to the two women that he loves. Faith and his Ma.

The ride goes by relatively quick. It's about 12:30 when Bosco arrives at his mothers place. He takes his bags from the trunk and pays the cabby. He stands there for a moment breathing in the New York City air and says "Home Sweet Home." He walks up to the house. The place is dark. No lights on. Doesn't look like his Ma's home. He takes his spare key that he kept when he left, opens the door and walks into the house. It's really hot and sticky he thought for it being the middle of the summer.

'Ma usually has the windows open.' Bosco thought as he turns on the front light of the house and walks to his old bedroom. He places his bags there and goes to the kitchen to open a window to let the breeze in. He looks in the fridge. Not too much in there, but he takes a beer and waits for about a half an hour for his Ma to get home. 'Must be working at the bar.' he thought again to himself and goes to his bedroom. It's about 1:15 am now and if she was working at the bar, she would be home around 2:30. "Well, I'll have a nap and wake up when she gets home." Bosco says to himself.

………………………………………………………………………………

Faith, Sully, and Ty have all the stuff they need to have for when they get to Rose's place. 'It's been a long day and its gonna be a long night as well.' Faith thinks to herself. At least she has some good friends to help her out with this task which is gonna be tough for her.

It's 1:45 am. They should reach Rose's house in about 15 minutes after coming from Faith's apartment. She stopped by home to change her clothes. She wanted to be a little more comfortable, and needed to tell Emily what was going on.

They pulled up to Rose's house at 2:07 am. The front light was on. Faith thought that was odd, but maybe Rose had left it on when she left. She takes out the key that Rose gave to her after Bosco left so that she could check up on her every once and a while. Faith puts the key into the lock and turns it. When she realizes that the door isn't locked, she takes out her off duty weapon. Ty and Sully do the same. As they walk into the house, they feel a breeze coming from the kitchen window.

…………………………………………………….

Bosco hears the door open, but hears more than the footsteps of an old lady. He hears several types of footsteps. He quietly gets up from his bed and gets his off duty gun. The one he never took with him to Miami when he moved. It was still in the same spot he'd left it, in his dresser door beside his bed. He slowly walks out of his room into the dark hallway and yells "FREEZE! POLICE!" to the three suspects in house.

…………………………………………………………………

"FREEZE! POLICE!" they all hear from a figure that pops out of room in front of them.

Faith recognizes the voice that just yelled at them. She flips on the light in the hallway.

"Bos?" Faith asks as the light hits his face.

……………………………………………………………………

As light hits Bosco's face, it makes him squint, because he has been in the dark for a while.

"Faith." Bosco says as he catches her face and runs over and gives her a hug.

All Faith can do is bite her bottom lip. As she looks at Sully and Ty, a tear runs down her face…………………………………………
