Kim looked at the clock as the phone rang. Bosco always called if he couldn't stop home so he could say goodnight to Johnny and Joey, and it was about that time.

"Well, aren't you punctual," she said as she answered the phone.

"Yeah, well I try," Bosco said.

"Are you gonna be punctual tonight, because I really want you bad, you Stud," Kim said.

"If I have to shoot somebody to be done on time, that's what I'll do," he joked.

"Oooh. You'd do that for me?" Kim said.

"Baby, I'd do anything to get to you. How's things?" he asked.

"The usual. Joey doesn't want to go to bed. All his friends get to stay up way later," she said, quoting Joey. "And I think Johnny's teething because he's miserable."

"Great. Glad I'm here," he joked. "So did I miss them or can I talk to them?" he asked.

"Sure. Hang on. Joey? Bosco's on the phone," she yelled toward Joey's room. Bosco listened as Kim talked baby talk to Johnny telling him that Daddy was on the phone. He laughed as he heard his son giggle. He heard Kim and Joey talking about something and wondered what it was about when he heard Kim say, "We'll talk about it later, okay?"

"Hi Bosco. Shoot anyone today?" Joey asked him. He loved to hear his stories about work, even though Bosco left most of the more gruesome details out.

"Not yet, but the night's still young," he joked. "How'd school go today?"

"Okay. There's a kid bugging me at school. I think I'm gonna kick his butt tomorrow," he said seriously and both Kim and Bosco had to hold their laughter.

"Joey. That's not always the answer. What's the kid doing?" Bosco asked.

"Well, it's not really me he's picking on, but this other little kid. There's this group of kids that keep gangin' up on him. It's not fair," Joey explained.

"Hmm. Don't do anything about it right now. I'll think on it and maybe we can come up with something together. Okay?" Bosco said.

"Okay. I'll see you tomorrow before I go to school?" Joey said.

"You bet. Let me talk to your brother," Bosco said. Kim held the phone up to Johnny's ear and listened as Bosco talked to him through the phone. She described the faces and noises that the baby was making to Bosco and then they talked a little bit.

"Faith seem any better today?" Kim asked.

"Mmmm. She's got good and bad days. I just wish she'd tell me what's going on. Maybe I can help," Bosco said, looking through the window of the payphone as Faith sat in the RMP.

"I'm sure she will, Bos. When she's ready. I tried talking to her, but she said everything was fine," Kim reminded him.

"Yeah. What're you gonna talk to Joey about later?" he said, remembering what Kim had said to Joey right before he took the phone from Kim.

"He wants to know if he can call you Daddy like Johnny does," Kim said with amusement in her voice.

Bosco smiled. "It's okay with me, if it's okay with you and Jimmy. I AM his Step Dad after all," Bosco said.

"We'll see. Jimmy's been a lot better since he and Brooke are back together, but I don't know if it'll piss him off," Kim said as Faith honked the horn.

"They must be bangin' us with a call. Gotta go. Love you. Give the kids a kiss," he said.

"Love you too. Be careful and bring the cuffs home with you," Kim kidded as Bosco hung up the phone and started to laugh as he headed back to the car.

"Is she talking dirty to you again?" Faith asked as he got in the car with a smile on his face.

"Even when she's not trying to," he said, sighing as he flipped on the lights and siren as Faith told him where the call was.
