Bosco?" she questioned "that's a weird nickname"

Bosco smirked and laughed lightly at her remark "It's short for my last name, I hate to go by my first no one ever calls me by Maurice anymore. Well except my ma"

"So you think we can get through this training together?" Faith opened her notebook and pulled out a pen from her purse.

He leaned over to her desk "I think we can. You seem like your level headed that you know what you want"

"You don't know the half of it" Faith shot right back.

Mr. Kansan moved across to the front of the room. They were stuck there listening to horrible and boring lectures. Including terrifying police stories and making sure everyone knew the laws off the top of their head. After 5 hours he finally dismissed the class. Faith collected her things and put them all in her bag and got up from her seat.

"So I'll see you tomorrow Bosco okay?"

"You bet have a good night Faith"

"Yeah you too" She smiled back and made her way down the hallway to outside. She knew that she had to hurry up and get home before Fred got home. He was all for her getting a career change. But Faith could not get that horrible night out of her head. She just needed to be able to do this job so she can take the kids and leave. She finally made it home at 5:30. Emily was doing her homework while Charlie was watching TV.

"Hey guys" She called out as she shut the door.

Fred came out of the bedroom "Hey how was the first day?"

"Good, they taught us allot. They paired us up with partners and tomorrow we are going to the range for practice."

"That's great Faith. Really that good that they paired you up with a partner so you two can help each other out."

"Yeah it was I think I am going to be fine"

"What's your partner like?"

"He's really nice, has a little sarcasm and attitude but he's fine I guess."

"So he is he and not a she?"

"Oh Fred, Don't start, does it really matter if it is a guy or girl?"

"No I just thought that they would pair the woman up with the woman and the men with the men that's all."

She leaned over to him "They have words for that it's called being sexist."

"Not me Faith..Never. I trust you, Good luck with it."

Faith gave a smile and she went into the back of the bedroom to change. She was surprised how nice Fred was being in the last month and how supportive he was. She thought maybe this was it. Maybe he was changing his ways. Maybe after all this time he realized what he had done to her that night.

She was sound asleep at 2am until she woke up for some reason and didn't know why. She thought maybe she heard a noise but it was quiet. She looked beside her and saw that Fred was not there. He must have fallen asleep on the couch. She didn't see nothing of it so she decided to go back to sleep. As she put her head on the pillow her bedroom door swung open. She lifted her head slightly and saw it was Fred.

"Fred?"

"Shhh you'll wake the kids" he said as he put his finger up to his lips. He jumped on the bed and pulled Faith down to him.

"Fred, what are you doing?"

'I want you now Faith."

"Fred I'm tired and I have to get up at 7 tomorrow morning please don't."

"C'mon Faith just a quickie you know you want this."

"I don't Fred get off me..Stop."

He kissed her hungrily and took his hands and pinned them down above her head. She could smell the alcohol on his breath and right away she knew he had been drinking and was completely wasted. Faith tried to break free from his clutches but he was too strong for her. His hands started to roam all over her body. Faith kept squirming kicking trying to get free.

"Faith! Why are you making this difficult? It's going to happen. You've been telling me no all week. I need it and I need you now."

"Fred, Stop don't touch me. Please don't." she cried as she tried to break free. He started mumbling something but she couldn't understand what he was saying. As she begged and pleaded for him to get off her it only made him angrier and he just wanted her more. He raised one of his hands and slapped her once across the face.

"Oww..Stop Please" she was trembling now.

"Will you let me make love to you now?" he asked.

"NO FRED. DON'T PLEASE…..DON'T!"

He slapped her again "How about now?"

Faith struggled to get free but it wasn't happening. Numbness took over her body and finally she gave up. She was weak and tired and couldn't fight him anymore. He let Fred have his way with her. He stripped her down and took what he thought he was. He was rough with her. Throwing her all over the bed as he held her hands on top. After 3 minutes it was all over and he got up off her and zipped up his pants.

"See was that so bad Faith?…I love you" He kissed her hard on the lips and left the bedroom. Faith continued to cry she couldn't believe that she was raped by her own husband or at least that's what she thought and she had no one to turn to to help her….
