Chapter 6: At the Ball

5 months later

The 55th precinct's annual charity ball was coming up and Cruz was anxiously searching for a dress that would fit her but would also make her look good for Bosco.

"There is only five days left until the ball and I still don't have a dress." Cruz said to Monroe at the station while visiting Bosco one day. It was her day off and she decided to come visit him because she missed him so much. She was now only allowed to work three days a week so that the risk of the baby would go down.

"I'm sure you'll find a dress. I'm off tomorrow we can go together to find you one." Monroe said.

"Ok that would be great. I should really go now." Cruz said. "I have to get grocery's we have like no food in the apartment." Monroe laughed.

"Ok you go do that." Monroe said.

Cruz walked up to Bosco. "I'm gonna go know I need to get us some food."

"Ok, bye." Bosco said they kissed then Cruz headed out of the station.

The next day

Monroe and Cruz walked into a shop to look for a dress for Cruz. After only five minutes of looking she found one that caught her eye.

"Oh Cruz its stunning. You should try it on."

"Ok. You think Bosco will like it?" Cruz asked.

"Yeah I think he'll love it." Monroe answered.

They went to the area with the change rooms and Cruz stepped inside one. She was so excited. She pulled the dress on and looked at herself in the mirror. She loved what she saw. Even pregnant she thought she looked good.

"So how does it look?" Monroe asked.

"Wonderful." Cruz said as she stepped out of the change room.

"Oh Cruz you look amazing!" Monroe said cheerfully.

"Thanks. I really like it." Cruz said.

"Yeah red really looks good on you." Monroe said.

"Ok well I'm going to take it off and buy it." Cruz said.

"Ok." Monroe said.

A half an hour later they were at a café eating lunch.

"Oh I cannot wait for this ball. I can't wait for Bosco to see me in this dress." Cruz said excitedly.

"Yeah it should be good." Monroe said.

5 Days later: The day of the ball

Cruz went into the bedroom to put her dress on as Bosco anxiously waited in the living room.

"Come on Cruz I'm getting desperate." Bosco said impatiently.

"I'm coming… So do you like it?" Cruz asked as she stepped out.

"Wow you look amazing." Bosco said.

"Yeah you think so?" She asked.

"Oh I know so." Bosco answered. He was still stunned by how beautiful she was.

They left the apartment and headed to the Met where the ball was being held.

When they got there they were greeted by Ty and Monroe who came together.

"Hey guys Cruz your dress looks amazing!" Monroe was pretty happy for Cruz.

"Thanks Sasha." Cruz said.

"Hey Cruz wanna dance?" Bosco asked.

"Sure." They walked out onto the dance floor. Ty and Monroe watched them as they danced then Ty turned to her.

"You wanna dance Sasha?" He asked.

"Yes, I'd love to." She replied. They made their way to the dance floor dancing right beside Bosco and Cruz.

After a half and hour of dancing they were told to sit down for the dinner. Bosco, Cruz, Monroe, Ty, Kim and Jimmy all sat at the same table leaving Faith out. She glared at Cruz and sat with Doc and Carlos.

"Think she's a little pissed?" Cruz asked.

"Yeah well she's with the Doc and Carlos. I'm sure she'll have lots of mature conversations with them." Bosco answered.

"Yeah like she needs more." Cruz said. She looked over and glared at Faith. She hated her so much.

The food came out and they began eating.

1 Hour Later

As the dinner finished the head of the NYPD and the head of FDNY stood up to say a few words.

"We just have a few words to say before the evening comes to an end." The head of NYPD stated. "We want to thank you for all that your precinct has done for the city of New York. It takes a few men to save a life, but it takes a bunch of heroes to save a whole community."

"We would like to thank you for coming today and we appreciate what you have done to the city of New York." The head of FDNY said. "Thank you and good night."

There was a rumble of noise as everyone got up. Chair's were being pushed in and out. As Bosco helped Cruz up he told her that he needed to take her someplace.

"Why Bosco I'm really tired and I want to get back home?" Cruz asked.

"Because I have a surprise for you." Bosco answered.

"Oooh a surprise for me?" She questioned.

"Yep just for you." Bosco replied.

"Ok then let's go." Cruz said.

They got into bosco's and drove off. As they arrived at the central park entrance Cruz questioned why they were there.

"Because I have a surprise for you." Bosco answered.

"Oh I'm getting kinda excited here." Cruz said.

Bosco got out of the car and walked around and opened the door for Cruz.

"Ya know I'm starting to like this side of you Bosco." She said.

"Really well this side of me doesn't happen that often so don't waste it." He said.

They walked into the park and headed down a path. When they got to their destination Cruz was shocked.

"Oh my god, Bosco this is so amazing!" She exclaimed. There was a gazebo with crystal lights hanging from it. In there, there was a table with a red table cloth roses and candles on it. As Cruz walked up to the gazebo she saw a chocolate cake with strawberries dipped in chocolate sitting on the table.

Bosco walked over and pulled out a chair for Cruz.

"Thank you." She said.

"No problemo." He said. Cruz smiled as she starred into his eyes. She could not believe that he had done all of this for her.

He cut her a piece of cake and they began to eat. As Cruz finished her last bite Bosco stood up. He grabbed Cruz's hand and pulled her up with him.

"Bosco what are you doing?" Cruz asked.

"Shhh. I just need to ask you something." Bosco said. Cruz looked confused.

"Everyday that I see you I want to hold you in my arms. And I know that right now that might not be able to happen. So I've chose to make a decision." He pulled out a ring box." So Maritza Cruz will you do the honor of being my wife, will you marry me?"
