"Are you sure we can't see each other tonight?" Bosco asked as he and Kim kissed by the stairs to the trains.

"Positive. I've got Joey. But this weekend is a different story. He's at Jimmy's and my mom is going to see my aunt so she won't bother us."

"So you're going to be all alone in that apartment?"

"Uh-huh." Kim nodded. "Wanna keep me company?"

"Oh yeah." Bosco said with a grin. He kissed her again.

"Hey, you never told me. What did Faith say when you told her who you were seeing?"

"Nothing for about five minutes. She just stared at me."

"And then what?"

"She said it was about time I started seeing a real person and not one of those blow-up dolls who can talk I usually go out with."

"So in her eyes I'm an improvement?"

"Not just in her eyes." He grinned.

"You keep talking like that and neither one of us is gonna make it to work today."

"Would that be so bad?"

"No, but we should go."

"Yeah I know. You're a good influence on me."

"Tell Faith she's welcome." Kim teased.

"You tell Bobby the same."

"Oh I can't. Bobby laid down the law a couple days ago. I can't talk about you and me. I give him images."

"What kind?"

"I told him about what we were doing the night Jimmy had Joey a couple weeks ago." Kim grinned wickedly.

Bosco laughed. "I'm sure he enjoyed that."

"Nah. Not really." Kim smiled. "I'll see you later." She kissed him one last time and then started to walk towards the house.

"I'll see you right here on Friday after you get off." Bosco called.

Kim turned. "What, you don't wanna watch?" She winked at him.

"You're a bad girl Zambrano."

"You don't know the half of it Boscorelli."

"Safe shift." He called after her.

"Always." She smiled. She went to start walking again but turned back to Bosco. "And officer?"

"Yeah?"

"Let's be careful out there." She grinned.

HR

Kim locked the door to her apartment behind her. She didn't bother with lights, knowing that her mother had probably seen the news report and picked up Joey so her sitter could go home. She left a trail of her things from the front door to her bedroom. When she got to her room she switched on the lights and immediately gasped.

"Oh God. You scared me to death. Why are you sitting in the dark?"

"I didn't want Jimmy or Bobby thinking you were home if they drove by and saw a light on. Bobby would understand but I think I'd have a problem if Jimmy found out I was here." Bosco said. "You disappeared before. You okay?"

Kim sighed. "Yes. No. Not sure to tell you the truth. Today wasn't one of the better days you have in this job."

Bosco reached out a hand and Kim smiled as she took in and kneeled on the bed next to him.

"Bobby talked to me after you left. He said you did real good in there. I'm just glad you came out."

"Me too."

"I just wanted to see if you were okay. I can go if you want to be alone."

"No. I want you to stay. I'm glad you're here."

"Me too."
