The ringing of the phone awoke Randi from her peaceful sleep. She reached over the warm body next to her and picked up the phone. She knew by the time who it was but she hadn't been thinking when she lifted the reciever.

"Dan these wake up calls are getting a little old."

"Your a bitch you know that?"

"Yeah well it's all I got. Now can I go back to bed."

"You'll never sleep again after I do what I want to do with you."

"Good bye." She cut the connection and turned to find Bosco staring at her.

"There are stalking laws in this state Randi." His eyes were full of concern.

"I know. I just need to deal with this in my own way."

"He could hurt you."

"I know that too. I just can't let fear take over my life."

"Are you scared of him?"

"No. I'm scared how he may mess up my life."

"You mean with Sully?"

"With Sully, with you, with Faith and Davis." She fluffed her pillow and looked at the celing. "I just can't let him get to me like that.."

"He can't. Randi you need to file a complaint." Bosco looked at her and wondered why this was so hard for her to comprehend.

"He's got friends Bosco. Freinds who could make or break my career."

"You don't think he'd try to discredit you. You have tapes and witnesses." He leaned on his elbow and watched as closed her eyes. She was scared of this guy weather she admited it or not. Randi turned and looked at him.

"I just can't." Bosco leaned over and kissed her softly.

"I can't sit back and whatch this guy hurt you." He kissed her agian. "This thing just got started and I want to see where it goes."

"This thing?"

"You and me. I want more then a fling Randi and if that scares you so be it."

"Nothing you can say or do can scare me Boscorelli, Maurice....Bosco."

"I think I might like you a lot Mallory, Miranda...Randi."

"I might like you a lot too." She kissed him this time leaning in and deeping it. Bosco ran his hand bhind her head and pulled her on top of him.

"Just so you know your dad doesn't like me a whole lot."

"Isn't that what little girls are suppose to do? Date men thier daddy's don't like."

"Oh yeah. I forgot about that rule." Bosco spent the next couple of hours breaking every rule in the book.

Sully sat in the diner and stared at the table in front of him. Randi had called and said she wanted to meet for lunch. He was scared. What more could they talk about. They needed to talk about this ex husband of hers that was for sure. He needed to know about him. She seemed more put off then scared of the guy but something was behind it all. He was scared for the woman. Until two days ago he hadn't known he had a daughter and now he wanted to protect her for all he's worth. Randi walked into the diner. Sully couldn't believe how much the girl looked like her mother.

"Hi." He stood up.

"Hi."

"You look tired. Did Rawlings do something else?"

"Sully he's been doing things for a year now. I get used to it."

"What does he have on you?"

"You think you have it figured out?"

"There's only one reason you wouldn't have his ass in a cell. What is he dangling over your head Miranda?"

"Mom used to use my full name when I was in trouble." She looked at Sully. "I was on anti depressants after basic training. I just wasn't feeling quite right and things were getting to e more then they should. Dan found an old bottle at my apartment and now he threatens to turn me in. The only thing they can do now is look over my cases from that time peroid and see if I was doing my job. But it still scares me and he knows it."

"You need to put an end to this. One day it's going to be more then your tires."

"Bosco told you."

"Bosco didn't have to tell me anything. Triple A was changing them when I we left last night."

"I guess I better do something now before things get any worse." The waitress came and took their order. "I'm just so used to doing things for myself you know."

"We'll I would like to help. I know it's been twenty-eight years but I want to start being some sort of father to you." Randi smiled.

"Thank you. And like I always say better late then never."

"You should stay away from Boscorelli."

"He told me you would say that. You know he's the one who made me see I needed to talk to you the other night. I like him Sully. I have bad taste in men as you can see. But he's nothing like Dan. You know him better then I do."

"That's why I'm saying stay away from him." Sully smiled. "Don't tell him I said so but he's an okay guy."

"Well so much for dating him now. Your not suppose to like the men I date."

"Sorry, I'm all new to this dad stuff."

"Well if it helps I never had a dad. So we can learn together." Their food arrived and they finnished lunch talking about Randi's high school years. When they were finnished it was time to pick up her partner for work.

"Can you change that dogs name?"

"Sorry it's the name he came with. I'll see you in a little while." She hugged him.

"Yeah." He hugged her tight. "Be careful."

"Always am." She got into her truck and pulled into traffic.

"I hope so" Sully wispered and headed to his car.
