Is Love Enough?

Disclaimer: I don't own ER or Third Watch

Author's Note: This is more a Third Watch fic, but there will be characters from ER in it as well! I know I should stop writing, but I just get this idea!

Pairing: Bosco and Faith

Chapter 1

It has been 4 years since that horrible day in the hospital when Bosco took
4 bullets for Faith. She turned to face Bosco. She still couldn't believe that
he was standing in front of her.. alive. She was so scared that she was never
going to see that day.

"Faith, what are you looking at?" Bosco asked. She smiled.

"I'm just thinking about today. Even though it has been 4 years, I still think about how I almost lost you."

"But you didn't, did you?" he grinned as he leaned over and kissed her.

"No, I didn't," She glanced at him, "I can't believe that it took you almost dying for me to realize how much I love you and want to be with you."

Bosco grabbed a hold of her hand.

"I know. You helped me so much with my recovery; you are everything to me. I love you, Faith."

"I love you too, Bosco," she said, leaning over and kissing him.

"I think it was a great idea for us to leave New York for a few days, even though it has been 4 years since that day, and I still need somewhere to
get my mind off everything that happened."

"I thought so, Faith. I always wanted to go to Chicago," he said, laughing. She smiled.

"I don't care where we are as long as I'm with you." Faith then remembers the day that she and Bosco realized how much they love each other.

"Thank for being here for me, Faith, but you don't need to come by every
day to check on me. I'll be fine. Go back to your own life," Bosco responded. She looked at him.

"You don't understand it, do you? You are my life; it
took you nearly losing your life for me to realize how much I love you and how much I
need you in my life. I want to be with you, Bosco. More than just a friend,
I want to be with you," she said, as she leaned over and kissed him. He looked up at her with this shocked look on his face.

"I never realize that you loved me like that, Faith. I.. feel.."

"I know you feel the same. You wouldn't have done what you did that day in
the hospital if you didn't." He leaned over and kissed her.

"I love you, Faith."

"I love you too, Bos."

"Faith," Bosco called out to her. She snapped out of her thoughts.

"Is everything okay, Faith?" She smiled.

"I was just thinking about when we finally realized how much we love each other," she said, as a smile crept through her face.

"I remember, Faith. You know I think the day that I really realized how much
I loved you was the day that you got shot. I just was so scared that I was
going to lose you, and for a while I did."

"I'm so sorry about that," Faith said, as she put her arms around Bosco, "I never meant to hurt you."

"I know, but it doesn't matter now." he said. She grabbed his hand tightly. After almost losing him, her divorce, and the custody hearing, she thought
that she would never be happy again, but she was wrong and that was all because of Bosco. Faith glanced over at him.

"You know you made me the happiest that I have been in years," she replied, as she leaned over and kissed him. He looked at her.

"Faith, you know I never thought that I would be able to commit to someone. I've always been someone who dates someone for a while and then
gets tired of them. But there is something about you that made me what do you
be with you forever."

"Probably because I am the only one that can put up with you." Faith
replied, laughing.

"So you are only with me because nobody else we have me, is that right?"
Bosco said, with this grin on his face. Faith put her arms around him.

"That's right," she said laughing.

"So did you talk to Emily today?" Bosco asked. She smiled.

"Yes, she told him to say hi to you and tell her that we don't need to worry about her;
she isn't going to have any parties while we are gone. She is studying for
her exam that's next week."

"Can you believe that she is going to be a police officer?" Bosco responded. Faith looked at Bosco.

"Oh Bosco, I'm so scared and happy for her at the same time. We both know what being a cop does to someone. I don't know if I want my daughter to experience that." Bosco grabbed her hand and held it tightly.

"If Emily is anything like her mother, she will be just fine. I bet she never thought that she
would be become a cop like her mother. All those times she complained about you
being a cop and now look at her. I think you are the reason that she wanted
to become one."

"I think you helped her as well. You coming back from getting shot and see you work as a cop." Bosco smiled.

"You are the reason that I was able to be a cop again. There were times that I thought I was never going to be a cop again, but you helped me through it, and now we are working together again as detectives."

Faith smiled. "I didn't think Lieu would let us work together, seeing as we are together, but I think he knew what a good team we are."

"We are a great team," Bosco said, as they started to cross the street. Faith turned around.

"Both in the office, and out," she said, grinning. He laughed at her. He then suddenly saw a car coming towards them.

"Faith, watch out!" It was too late; she didn't see the car. He run to her side.

"Faith, no.. I can't lose you," he said, as he held her in her arms.
