DEDICATION: to the loser line on a local (ottawa) station, called hot 89.9 you'll see why!
Bosco looked at the number in his hand. He couldn't believe she had actually given him her number. He still had a few hours before he had to be at work, and he knew he should call.
He picked up the phone but could not get his fingers to dial her number. He couldn't understand it. The day before all he wanted was to have her number, and now he couldn't care less that he had it. He certainly didn't want to use the number he now had.
He decided to sit himself on his couch and watch whatever talk show happened to have the most outrageous topic of the day. He watched on full show, and most of another before he left for work.
When he got to work he went into the locker rooms. He noticed Sully and Davis were in there. Yokas was there too, so he went over to talk to her, more so that Sully would hear what he had to say.
"I got her number," Bosco informed his partner.
"What? Who?" asked Yokas, not really wanting to know.
"Your mystery woman from yesterday?" asked Davis.
"Yup that's the one!" Bosco said proudly.
"Lemme guess you only had to break a few laws to get it," laughed Sully.
Bosco heard Faith laugh a little in the background. It annoyed him sometimes that she would listen to Sully, and get amused by what he said. As long as someone was laughing he would keep cracking the stupid jokes.
"No, she gave it to me," replied Bosco.
"Did you stalk her?"
"No! I just went to talk to her, and she said to call her today."
"When are you gonna call?" Davis asked.
"I don't know when I get around to it I guess. She's probably sitting by her phone waiting for the call."
"I'm sure she is," muttered Yokas muttered.
"I'm telling you, she wants me!"
"Whatever, Bos, let's get into role call on time this morning, hey?"
"All right, all right!" Bosco said, following his partner into role call.
"Can you believe him?" Sully asked Davis.
"He really is something else sometimes," laughed Davis.
The two other men went to role call. It was the same as every morning. Bosco staring up at the ceiling hardly paying any attention as Sergeant Christopher told them about the important things to look for and informed them of any partner or squad changes.
At the end of role call they all went to get their radios, and started to toward the RMPs. Bosco as always got into the driver's seat, and Yokas got in on the passenger's side.
"She really did give me her number," Bosco told his partner.
"Who?" asked Yokas, not really caring, but knowing she'd hear about it all anyway.
"Kim."
"Oh, so?"
"So what?"
Yokas shook her head. "What happened?"
"I went to talk to her last night, after work. She said she was busy, and she told me to call her before work, and she gave me her cell phone number."
"All right, and?"
He shrugged. "I haven't talked to her since then."
Faith laughed. "She give you a fake number to one of those services that tell you you're a looser, and aren't gonna score with her or something?"
"I didn't even call it."
"Why not?"
He shrugged. "I don't know, she asked to call before work, and I just didn't fell like it. Springer was really interesting today, I just didn't have the time."
Yokas shook her head. "Are you going to call her after work?"
"I don't know."
"I knew it!" Faith exclaimed.
"Knew what?"
"You were only pissed because she didn't give you her number. Now that you have it you couldn't care less about using it."
"That's not it at all."
"You're full of shit, Bos!'
Bosco shook his head. "It's not that, I just- I didn't have time to call."
"Other then watching Springer, what were you doing that was so important then?"
"Stuff."
"Right, you could have picked up the phone and talked to her for a few minutes. Unless of course this random stuff is more important then going after your true love."
"True love my ass, she was a one night stand!"
"Exactly! And she woulda been yesterday too if she had given you her number sooner."
"You don't know that for sure."
"I'm fairly certain of it, Bos. You just like to be in control it's an ego thing."
"Whatever."
Yokas shook her head. "That's why you always drive."
"It's not."
"Then pull over and let me drive."
"No way! I always drive."
"Exactly."
"It's got nothing to do with my ego."
"Maybe you're just over compensating?"
"I don't think so! You wanna see it?"
Yokas shook her head. "No! I do NOT want to see it."
"You sure?"
"Positive."
He nodded. "I thought so, it's not an overcompensation thing. That's why guys buy pick up trucks and boats."
"All right, I believe you."
"And it's not my ego either."
"All right, then it's not that either."
He shook his head. "Don't pretend to humour me, you're not very good at it."
"And you're too thick to realize that the only reason you wanted her so bad yesterday was because she was the one that did all the work, and you were pissed."
"So what if that was it?"
Yokas shrugged. "I guess it doesn't have to mean a damn thing if you don't want it to."
"It wasn't my ego. But I tell 'ya Faith, she's good, if she were to come to me again, I'd probably do her again, on my terms this time of course."
"I doubt there will ever be a second chance."
"You never know."
Yokas laughed. "Also, I think that she wouldn't agree to do it all on your terms."
"Why do you say that, oh smart one?"
"I don't know, she doesn't seem like the type to take shit from anyone, especially a man. She might let you think that you're in control, when you're really not."
"Bullshit!"
"That's my opinion."
"Why do you always feel the need to share it?"
"Cause if I have to listen to all the dirty details of your dates, than you'll just have to deal with hearing my opinions, loudly and repeatedly."
"Whatever."
Yokas shook her head. "It really is an ego thing, Bos, you have to see that."
"I don't have to see anything that's completely wrong."
"So what's so different from yesterday?"
"I don't know, for one thing I saw her with that guy."
"He's that guy, not her partner now?"
Bosco nodded. "He said there was nothing between them. I wasn't sure it was him anyway."
"Right, and they just kissed, it doesn't mean it was something."
He shrugged. "I guess it might not be, but it showed me that she wasn't interested anymore."
"Bullshit! You probably wanted her more after seeing her with someone else."
"Why do you think you know me so good?"
"Cause I do know you pretty well. It had nothing to do with that guy yesterday, it all had to do with you feeling like you needed to be in control of not calling back."
"That's not it!"
Bosco was starting to act like a five year old about to throw a temper tantrum. Yokas decided it would be best if she just dropped the whole subject before things got out of control.
Bosco knew that his partner was exactly right, but he hated admitting that she was right about those kinds of things. The reason he hadn't called her was that he just didn't care anymore. He had the number and it wasn't like he had worked for it.
Now he was the one who had decided that he didn't want to talk, and figure out what had happened between the two them. They both knew it had been a one night stand, and his not calling her, in his mind, just solidified that fact.
"How are the kids?" Bosco asked.
"They're good," replied Yokas.
"Five-five David respond to…" the radio interrupted.
Soon they were racing off toward a scene.
tbc... (what happens now, find out in lesson 12, no ringy dingies mwahaha mwahacouch)
end notes: does the dedication make more sense now? prolly not, bet you missed it, faith made refrence to one of those lines with bos, if new york has a loser line, and bosco was a real person i'm sure he would have called it at least once laugh what's a loser line? it's a number you give ppl who try and pick you up, and they get a recorded message basiclly saying "loser, you got a fake number! no nookie for you!" in o-town they play the highlights on monday morning! hugz and kissez -trista
