A/N: Ya I made up this CSI guy, cross over to come soon. I don't own Grand Theft Auto either but I did use a name from it. I am NOT going to use all of the song, it's song about leaving, but that's not the cause with these two, the first few lines help with what I'm trying to get across My Worst Fear by Rascal Flatts

She'd learned a lesson; if you ever wanted to get out of work on time don't agree to do something with an hour left. She learned that the hard way, she was a handed a file containing at least a hundred pages and by the hour. She got the accident file, no clue how, it wasn't Anti-Crime's thing to deal with accidents but somehow she knew she had Cruz to thank who asked her would she do her a favour, another thing always ask the favour before you agree. Speaking of which after she was handed the file that almost weighed a ton, Cruz had disappeared, probably spending time with Hayden no doubt.

She didn't know if she wanted to know the whole deal about what was going on between them, maybe it was better if she didn't. Although she would never do something that Cruz did to her, to get a man, she sensed that Cruz had deep feelings for Hayden in some sick demented way of hers.

She armed herself with a few pens, a cup of coffee and paper prepared to make notes about things that didn't add up and hopefully find out what had actually caused the accident, she didn't know how many people would be upset once they learned who had caused the accident, but the evidence never lies, it's how you interpret it.

Two hours after her shift, the papers grew to two hundred pages; she had eighteen different piles, on for each person. With the kids she didn't have much except smiling photo's, and the birth and death certificate. And photo's of what ever was found in the car. The boxes with everything in the cars, which they could get out, were sitting besides her, having been just delivered. A never-ending process, so far she figured that most of them had just failed to stop in time sending them flying into the mess. On thing that didn't add up was how Faith's car was so smashed up yet all she hit was the side rail. She checked every picture; no one had any transfer of paint on their cars from here. She re-checked everything, and still came up with the same thing; either a car or cars were missing. She had a phone call to make.

She waited for the receptionist to pick up,

"CSI: Crime Lab"

"This is Officer Ryan's Is Ted Rosenberg in?

"One moment please" she was put on hold; the door opened admitting Bosco carrying two cups of coffees.

"Rosenberg"

"Yes this is Officer Ryan's I'm calling to ask you a few questions that maybe you can help me with"

"This about that accident on the Freeway?"

"Yes it is"

"Alright meet me at Denny's Coffee Shop on 33rd street and bring the photo's, say in twenty minutes?"

"Ok Thank you" she replaces the phone into its cradle and starts to gather up what she needs, completely forgetting that Bosco's there.

"You do know shift ended two hours ago right?" he asked her

"Two hours and twenty-nine minutes ago" she continues to gather them up, never looking up. She slid into her jacket, grabbing the file she almost walked out the door but stopped and walked over to where he was sitting.

"One of those for me?" she asked about the two coffees

"Ya" she takes ones and downs half of it in one gulp, and the rest in another ignoring the fact that it was burning her throat as it went down.

"Thank you" she plants a kiss on his lips and walks back to the door. She steps half way through it but stops again

"Wanna come?"

"Something's not adding up is it?" she adverts her eyes

"No" he gets up and follows her to the door.

"Shouldn't Cruz be handling this or someone else's department?" he questioned from the passenger seat

"If you haven't noticed Cruz is AWOL"

"Where you think she is?"

"One guess"

"Not jealous?" he said more curiously then in question form

"Why would I be? I have you" she risked a glance at him, he was smirking

She parked the car and got out file in hand.

"That was a complete bust," Bosco said as he climbed back into the car

"Not entirely. Did clear up a few things" their was definitely a another car who had caused the accident. She dropped Bosco of at their apartment; warmth filled her when she thought of their apartment. Promising that she would be home in a couple of hours.

She wasn't home when he went to bed around two hoping to catch her, but ended up falling asleep watching an infomercial. She wasn't there when he woke up there either or when he left to go for work. He did find her when he was in role call she walked in and stood beside the Lt, waiting to speak to him, freshly showered, her hair pulled back into a messy bun.

He tried to get her attention but she kept adverting his eyes. Waiting for the Lt attention. Wrapping up role call, everyone filed out, slowly he hung back trying to make small talk with others, until the Lt left leaving Ashley pouring over her information at the podium, he was the only one left in there with him. He looked around before moving closer just to reassure himself no one was watching, she had to be really out of it if she didn't notice him walk up behind her his warm breath against her neck.

"Have you slept?" she rearranged the papers bringing new ones to the front.

"No" she concentrated one the papers in front of her, but failing with every breath he placed on her neck.

"Why haven't you?"

"Too much work" his tongue darted out and tasted a pot below her ear.

"Cruz shouldn't have left you with all this work" he breathed in the scent of her; it made his heart beat faster, and the temperature to rise a few degrees.

"I really got to get back to work" she closed the file and turned around and wrapped her arms around his neck.

"I'll be home by midnight" she flashed her eyes wide and back down and kissed him.

The need to taste was becoming more powerful than he could handle and he deepened the kiss. He tasted faint mint and coffee, the combo made his blood boil. She pulled away

"I really have get back to work now" she quickly kisses him again, grabs her folder and leaves.

His worrying nerves settled once he heard the apartment door opening, and heard the familiar sound of the shower running, did he will himself to sleep, but sleep wouldn't come. He glanced at the clock, 2:29; she said she'd be home by midnight. This whole completely in love business was doing weird things that he only ever saw in movies. He wanted to know where she was all the time, but he didn't care call her, knowing that it would only push her further away. So he just casually dropped whenever he could to the desk Sgt wondering if the Anti-Crime team was in or expected in but haven't called. Who was he to know that she knew he was doing these things? The desk Sgt could tell her, on her way out or just as an icebreaker. Who the hell knew, but the moment she brought it up, he would know that his cover was blown. So far she hadn't, couldn't really decide if that was a good thing, or a bad one.

He didn't want to act like he had been waiting up for her so he waited until he heard the shower shut off and then an extra five just to be sure, before he entered the kitchen. Hair wet and awfully sexy in his shirt and her bottoms. His back against the counter, he watched her make food

"I didn't wake you did I?" she added mayonnaise to some weird looking contents of the bowl

"No" he said a little quietly, she trying to hide a smile, she knew he'd been waiting up

"What are you making?" he watched as she stirred the contents, as it all became one

"Tuna Fish, want some?"

"No I'm good" she slathered the contents onto two waiting pieces of bread, and tossed the bowl into the sink.

"Good, I wasn't going to give you any" she smirked and put the top two pieces of bread on and cut them in half. He grew hard just looking at her, he knew exactly what he was getting himself for Christmas, a hundred more shirts, she looked better in them than he did.

She at down at the table silently eating her sandwiches, she took a bit and got up, over the fridge, she was bent over looking at the contents when she was grabbed from behind and thrown up against the wall, her head hit the wall hard. She saw stars but that was quickly covered by Bosco's face coming up to hers. He pinned her up against the wall, pushing the air out of her, making it hard to breathe, she felt his arousal against her lower stomach, his lips on hers, his mouth tore from hers to taste her neck, it was getting hard to think, her appetite dissolved and another one grew. She cupped him hard, he gasped giving her all the encouragement she needed as her hand traveled up to his chest, trying to put some space between them so she could breathe. It worked to a point, she got air when he took of her shirt and started kissing the exposed skin, he kissed her skin until he met her bottom and slid the pants down her legs. His fingers traced every out line of her legs as he came back up and pinned her again. Her hands ran up his back, nails digging in leaving red marks, his tongue forced its way into her mouth, her nostrils filling with the scent of him, she couldn't keep a single thought in her head. He picked her up, encircling his legs around him, he teased her with his cock at her entrance back and forth before he slid himself in, he kept going harder and faster with each thrust.

Much, much later, Bosco sat his back against the wall, having just donned his pants, and her his shirt, she slid in between his legs, his fingers trailing along her thigh.

"What possessed you to do that?"

"I haven't seen you in a couple days"

"You saw me a couple of hours ago"

"Not like this I didn't" his fingers slipped and he felt the inside of her thigh

"Come get up I have to be at work early tomorrow"

He was sleeping soundly Ashley tucked in his arms, no matter how hard she tried to let sleep consume her but she couldn't sleep until got off what her chest

"Bosco, are you awake" he mumbled something incoherently so she took that as a no he wasn't.

"I love you Bosco" finally sleep consumed her.

True to her word she was up and gone by the time he got up at twelve. He showered and dressed in silence, there was no need to talk to himself or listen to music, he felt they were drifting apart and that he was powerless to stop it, he was happy for her, she really was doing something that she loved, but he couldn't help but think that her happiness was their downfall. In a way she was becoming Cruz letting her job run her life, and her moods became different too, she was more edgy and could fly off the handle at any given time, with just a casual word.

Maybe he could convince her to not go in so early one day, so they could spend a little time together, before they went in, some nights he came home so tired all he wanted to do was hit the sack, so he knew she would too although she wouldn't admit it.

The first problem he encountered was tracking her down, he'd been on shift for three hours and hadn't seen her once, but why would he? He wasn't in Anti-Crime, and they weren't working a similar case so he couldn't use that as an excuse, and he knew that she didn't want to make what they had public yet. That was ok with him, for the moment he didn't either, with it being a secret they weren't the subject of the gossip. This was his fifth time in the house three for bringing in a John, and the others just because he wanted to talk, but she had been away both times. Sixth's times the charm he thought as he walked into the house as he had done an hour ago. The desk Sgt didn't even need to be asked anymore he just shook his head yes or no as Bosco passed him, his heart skipped a few beats when the Sgt nodded his head, and butterflies came into his stomach as she came down the stairs talking on her cell. He quickly walked in front of her blocking her path; she said a few words into her phone that he didn't understand, when the hell had she learned Spanish?

"Hey what's up?" she said in between outbursts of Spanish into the phone

"I just wanted to ask you something" she nodded her head and continued to speak in Spanish, then she snapped her phone shut quickly.

" Can it wait? I'm on my way out" desire flashed through her eyes and he felt himself stirring.

"Ya Absolutely"

"I'll be around later, just try catch me sometime. You better go your partner's waiting" she motioned her head to a partner standing behind him, he guessed. Right now, what he wanted to do was plant a big one on those firm luscious lips but thought against and left.

Ashley came into Hayden's room carrying a box with the lid off, and flowers inside the box, sitting on papers, Cruz sitting in the visitor's chair beside the bed while Hayden slept.

"Bad time?" Ashley whispered

"No" Hayden replied and opened his eyes, he moved up a little bit but she could tell it was hurting him and he stopped.

"What's in the box?" Hayden asked when Ashley had reached the end of the bed, and leaned forward into trying to pry what was in the box himself.

"These are for Cruz to sign and these" she took the flowers that were already in a vase and water "are for you" she sat them down, on an empty place on the nightstand beside the bed. And placed the box beside Cruz, who started going through the pile immediately, as if just realizing how much work she was actually missing. Ashley slipped her a pen, as she reached for another.

"Somehow I gather this isn't a personal visit"

"No it's not"

"Anti-Crime somehow" she looked at Cruz who was slowly turning a dull pink "got the accident. Everyone else had something to do, so I offered to take it" she smiled knowing that Cruz was not liking this, but she didn't say it was forced upon her now did she?

"I just have a few questions I need clearing up"

"Alright shoot" he clapped his hands together and rubbed his hands together

"Tell me anything you can about what you remember about the crash"

"I was on my way to court, talking to Ritza here" Cruz blushed a darker pink this time "when the guy in front me slammed on his breaks, I did too, I remember looking out and seeing this guy on the side of the road, looked like he had a skateboard coming out of a backpack. Then I don't remember much after that"

"What'd the guy look like?"

"He looked like a punk, you know the Mohawk hair, piercings ripped clothes, he had dark hair not sure what colour, it was spiked up into four spikes though, his nose was rather large too"

"That's a lot to remember for only a quick glance"

"I work with cops, I've picked up a few things"

"Ok. I think that's it, if I need anything else, I'll be back"

"I'll be here"

The older man said the same thing about seeing someone on the shoulder moments before; the guy let her in on a little secret, he only remembered because his granddaughter said he remembered him from school. The guy only remembered his first name Scott.

She returned to Hayden's room to pick up the box of reports, and just other things that were really important but needed to be signed, she gave Hayden her word that she would visit the next time she was up this way. She would try her hardest to make sure she wasn't, she didn't do good with people in hospitals, never had, not since she saw her grandmother with so many machines going into her that she could of swore she was a circuit board to a computer. She had died two weeks to the day of her arrival to the hospital, and Ashley made it a point to stay the hell away from hospitals the best she could.

When she walked into the precinct Lamb, the desk Sgt nodded at her, telling her that Bosco had been looking for her, all secretly of course she wasn't to know, she felt kinda special knowing that he cared about her well being and all. She never had anyone do that before, worry about why she wasn't home on time, or where she was, if she was ok, or not. She dropped the box of signed papers off at the front desk and went back to look at the photo's, she had a hunch she just couldn't shake. She looked at one photo in particular, Faith's tires, her hunch stood corrected, all the tires were flat as a pancake. The picture gave her a new rush of adrenaline, and a huge grin, she was on the verge of solving this case and it good.

Bosco made another unnecessary stop at the house again and got another nod by Lamb and once again she was coming down the stairs. This time walking faster than normal, he had to grab her arm to get her attention.

"You wanted to talk that's right" the memory coming back to her,

"If your not busy"

"Could we walk and talk?" he thought it over a minute then nodded.

They started walking out, he didn't want to say anything when everyone else could over hear and their once so secret affair would be the talk of the house.

She stood against the car door, arms across her chest, waiting to hear what couldn't wait until they were at home.

Last night you gave me a kiss
You didn't know it, but I was awake when you did
You were quiet, you were gonna let me sleep
So I just laid there pretending to be
You said some things you didn't know I could hear
And the words "I love you" never sounded so sincere

He heard those four words that she whispered to him, when he thought he was sleeping he had never wanted to say guess what I'm not sleeping like you thought I was and that I love you too, maybe even more. But he remained quiet and fell asleep shortly after she did. He opened his mouth to speak when the devil herself came out.

"There you are Bosco"

"Dammit" Bosco cursed under his breath, Ashley smiled hearing that, so maybe he didn't like her after all, she walked over to them, she reminded Ashley of Britney Spears, fake blond, fake tits and abs to die for.

"I've been looking all over for you" she had been looking for her wittle Bosco-Wosco and couldn't find him Ashley laughed as she got into the car and started her up. Bosco climbed in, the passenger seat leaving Black standing outside the car.

"Bosco what are you doing?"

"We need to talk"

"You have job to do with Britney"

"Who?"

"Black"

"I'm not leaving until we do" she had two choices, tell him to get the hell out of her car, and run the risk of ruining what ever they had or avoid it for the time being and invite them both to what she was doing. She waved Jessica in, look a like Britney eagerly climbed in the back seat.

"This is so cool, I feel like we're in like a cop show or something you know like that show Third Watch it was too bad it got cancelled" she felt like shooting the woman already and they hadn't been in the car for five minutes yet.

By the time the twenty mark, she really was very tempted to unholster her gun and use it on herself that way she wouldn't have to go to jail for killing a fellow officer.

"Do you ever shut up?" he was impressed it took him three weeks to tell her to shut the hell up and it only took her not even twenty minutes.

She pulled over on the shoulder of the highway, Jessica sulking in the car, Ashley was careful she didn't get hit as she made her way over to the side of the where the tire tracks were.

"Ok if I just cause someone's tires to blow, where would throw the evidence that could be tied to me?" she asked him

"Well I'm not going to throw them back out in traffic, so my only bet is over the rail"

They looked over the rail into the water below them. She searched around for a rock to thrown down below seeing where the tack band would land. The rock hit the water with a splash

"Gotcha" she said to the water below.

"Would you mind telling me what you're doing at the house when you have no perp? I recall when we were partners you never once wanted to go in if we didn't have to even when you were dating Faith" BUSTED!

"I don't know what you're talking about" he tried to play it cool but his face was giving him away, he could tell his face was turning a dull pink, only she could make him blush.

"I'm flattered but you can call me, instead of having Lamb tell you, if I'm in or not" so much for secrecy.

"Where's Carter?" why the change of subject Bosco Wosco?

"Running made up errands I gave him why?"

"Just wondering"

"He calls me every half hour to see if I'm ok and to let me know that he is too" that didn't help settle his stomach any but at least its something.

"Do you know how much I want to take you somewhere and have my way with you?" it was her turn to blush. She didn't.

"To run my hands over every part of your body and end up somewhere only one person should see" she cleared her throat and moved away from the rail back to the car.

Bosco saw the car coming towards them at the last minute and pushed Ashley out of the way, she grabbed onto the railing and turned her head and saw the car hit Bosco head on, before driving off.

A/N: Did you get my clues for what's coming up? Not Bosco getting hit. Crossover coming in two chapters.
