Rico soothed Elvis with piles of roasted chicken, his favorite. Right before the gang arrived. He was on deck hosing down Elvis. "Stop lying Sonny you do not have a gator." Bella refused to believe him as they walked down the pier towards his slip. "Nope it's the God honest truth" Gina backed him up in what the young girls thought was a tall tale. "Permission to come aboard my own vessel First Mate." He yelled up to Rico. "Permission granted Captain." Rico laughed out loud as he sat his beer down and walked over to help Gina with her bags. Next was Trudy and finally Bella and Nya followed by Sonny. "Welcome ladies to the St. Vitus Dance. As promised this is Elvis, Elvis say hello to your 2 new nieces Bella and Nya." He growled low and slow like always. The girls backed up until their legs touched the sofa where Trudy and Gina were sitting drinking beers. "We all reacted the same way at one time or another especially Rico. When he first arrived here from the Big Apple and popped up on Sonny before they became besties and partners he almost had a heart attack!" Trudy retold the story with such animation and added inspiration here and there from Gina.

Sonny was done bringing in the ropes and was ready to cast off when he looked up and caught his girl in mid laugh head tossed back in the sunlight with Gina he couldn't help but smile to see her returning to her old self. He smiled to himself as he cast off. They sailed for almost an hour when he decided to drop anchor. The fun afternoon at sea started with fishing lessons given by the 4 experienced fishers to the newbies. It was agreed that whatever they caught would be dinner within regulation of course. Sonny turned it into a whole information session. Explaining the importance of respect for life in the water so that there will always be life in the water. They had enough for a huge meal including the steaks Rico picked up and the veggies and potatoes they picked up enroute to the marina. Trudy and Gina were down below washing the veggies and potatoes while Rico and Sonny cleaned the fish over the side of the boat and lit the grill. Bella and Nya started the steaks soon followed by the fish, veggies, potatoes.

Everyone sat around with bellies set to burst at any moment. "This is like a movie, I can totally be a cop if it's living like this" Nya nodded in agreement as Bella spoke then sipped her soda as Sonny started to shake his head with a sure response as soon as he sipped his beer. "OH nooooo you 2 please do not be fooled by all of this." Trudy, Rico, and Gina agreed. "My car" Sonny spoke up," My Caddie" chimed in Rico, and this boat is all a facade. Property of Miami Dade County Police Department. See we can't play the part if we don't look the part." Trudy explained that they can use them in their free time but if the call comes it all goes back like it never existed. "What about your homes? omg." The girls were very bothered that they put their lives on the line and poof just like that could be left high and dry. "Where we live is ours out right Trudy had an apartment and I lived here but when we married we bought a home with enough room for my son Billy when he comes to visit and whatever sized family we may decide to have in the future. He looked across the table and winked at her as she smiled back. "As for me I have a 2 bedroom apartment." Rico spoke up. " Gina spoke up, "of course you already know what I have. It's tricky in the beginning but you get used to it." "Can I ask a question?" "Sure Nya what's up?" Gina nudged her shoulder and smiled at the younger woman. "If the men get all of the flashy toys and dazzle to play their roles on the job what the hell do the women get? If I am being newsy I am sorry but I don't think that's fair. "Ahhhhh that good old double standard boys club question. I will take this one." Gina started to explain. We Vice females have what they call an unlimited wardrobe budget that covers everything: clothes, shoes,wigs, makeup, costume jewelry, and fake apartments. Because the line is very drawn in the sand, the Vice men are the movers and shakers, dealers and kingpins. Pimps Gina don't forget Pimps, of course Trudy the almighty and powerful pimp. While we on the other hand are paraded around in next to nothing to do our jobs. There has always been a division between the Vice men and women not amongst us individually. It was placed there by the department. The guys are to use their brains and toys. We are expected to use our bodies. The women of Vice have to think on every case. This might be your initiation into the do whatever you have to do to seal the case club." The mood instantly shifted Trudy stood to excuse herself; she didn't realize where the topic was going to wind up. She stepped over a sleeping Elvis and went towards the front of the boat near the wheel and practiced her deep breathing that her therapist taught her for triggering moments like this.

Gina instantly felt like shit for not choosing her words more carefully or not changing the subject all together. Sonny stood to go to her when Gina spoke up "no no Sonny let me." Nya grabbed Sonny's hand and spoke softly "I am so sorry I didn't mean anything by it. I can be a bit too curious for my own good." Nya looked right along with everyone else's line of sight at Gina, comforting Trudy. "It's OK Nya I know you meant no harm." He knew in this line of work going forward since all of this ripped her apart that moments like this would arise.

"I am so sorry sweetie I wasn't thinking please forgive me." Gina wrapped her arms around Trudy's shoulders and hugged her sister from behind as she rested her chin on Trudy's shoulder. In response Trudy leaned her head on Gina's to show her she was not mad at her or anyone for that matter. "Actually I am glad you broke it down the way you did those girls need to know the truth about what we and other cops go through it's not all glitz and glamor besides being shot cops have a ton of other shit to be afraid of. It needs to be addressed and exposed especially for us women." Gina took Trudy's hand as they headed back to the table. "Sorry about that everyone I am ok I just needed a moment." "You sure doll?" Sonny stood to hold his wife by the waist and kiss her forehead. She nodded and smiled, if these two are going to really consider joining the force they need to know the truth at all costs. Like how I lit a dress on fire" Gina took a deep breath and began to explain how she did what she had to in order to not blow her cover. She opened herself up about the Ramirez case back in 84. Sonny and Rico were in shock. They had no idea she had to choose between her cover and her body. Her confession set a fire in the core of Rico. "Look girls I don't mean to bring down such a fun day but Gina and I want you to know all that comes with this job the good and the bad. That's all."

"Thank you for opening up and sharing with us, it's really appreciated." Bella hugged Gina and Trudy hugged Nya. The sun started to kiss the horizon and Sonny stood to clean up the dishes with Rico, giving the ladies a chance to bond over new discoveries.

Everything for the rest of the night was nothing but fun chatter and relaxation Trudy and Sonny were wrapped in each other's arms laughing at Gina turn at pictionary. The girls learned quickly how competitive Rico and Gina could be. It was close to 11 when Sonny stood up to show the girls how the sofas pulled out into beds and how there were more beds below. He and Rico opened up the canopy awning that covered the whole upper deck lounge area so whoever slept on the sofa beds would have coverage over their heads. "OH did I forget to tell you two that this was a 3 day cruise! Just wait until you guys see what I have planned for tomorrow. Nya and Bella took the spare bed below deck and 4 of them turned in; the girls could barely settle down after Sonny's announcement but soon enough the only two left were Rico and Gina.

Rico was checking the radar and weather report for the night over the radio. He thought Gina was asleep so he tiptoed into the canopy so as not to wake Gina to find her bed empty. He walked through the canopy and came out the other side. There she was sitting with legs over the side of the yatch body behind the railing with her legs dangling over the side. "Hey you, want some company?" She poured him a glass of the wine she claimed as her own when she thought she was alone. He sat next to her and graciously took the glass offered. "I am so sorry again I had no idea. "It's OK, Rico. I have dealt with it and overcome it. I just wish we weren't in this position in the first place. Look at the stars it's like you can just pluck them and pop them in your pocket." She sighed and laid flat back on the floor for a better view and he joined her. I am so glad our gang is back together." "Me too, G we even picked up some new members along the way." They both stared up in comforting silence when Rico started pointing out various constellations. She sat up super giddy and excited. "All of the years we have been family and friends how in the hell did I not know you were into astronomy?! Rico I always wanted to go into space. I love everything about it." He smiled at her excitement. " I have a confession." He whispered, I am a secret Trekie the Next Generation of course Shhhh you can't tell Sonny he will never let me hear the end of it in my geekdom of which I am a proud member." She covered her mouth as to not wake Elivs along with the others. "Ok so Jean Luc is the sexist commander in Starfleet and Geordi LaForge is a very close second." She giggled in her hand as she put her other hand on Rico's chest. He laughed as he touched her hand. " Uh OK I don't know about that part but I'm definitely a fan. Even went to comic con last year when it was here I was Worf." Her mouth dropped at his last confession." Uhhh I was Deanna Troy she whispered" They took turns sharing their favorite Trek moments.

They sat facing each other, the bottle long empty. Rambling and laughing into the night, he was still holding her hand in his lap. "Who would have thought, huh?" She leaned in and kissed him softly. Her lips barely touched his. He was frozen in surprise albeit a pleasant surprise. She broke the connection and jumped up in a panic. "OH Rico I am so sorry I had no right to do that please forgive me it was the wine." She wrung her hands together as she turned to face the water. He stood behind her watching her hair swirl around her head. "Gina it's OK." he placed his hand on her waist and turned her around. "I am not accepting an apology for something that wasn't wrong." He touched her face and met her lips again. This time it was slow, sensual and delicious, her lips sweet from the wine and such a perfect fit for him. His swagger pulled her in like gravity to earth in one swoop she was up in his arms legs wrapped around his waist lips never breaking apart he carried her back into the canopy he sat back on the sofa bed and pulled her top over her head as she grabbed a fistful of his hair and pulled his head back and kissed her way down his Carmel neck to his collarbone. He couldn't control himself; he pushed her off of his lap and stood to remove his very restricting shorts. His thick cock sprang free as she wiggled out of her shorts. She got up on her knees and waited for him to get back on the bed. He pulled the sheets up over his back as he hovered over her. "Gina I have a confession." She looked up at him and bit her bottom lip. "I have wanted you for so fucking long Mami. Do you want me, Mami? Do you want me as bad as I want you?" She couldn't be any wetter hearing his Caribbean side come out drove her to almost cum just from his sexy voice and words. "Si Papi Si" He slid into her like a hand to a glove. She hissed in his ear as he nuzzled into her neck and paused for a second letting her adjust to his girth. They took their time making love under the stars and showed every inch of her body 100% attention. She came so many times she lost count. She cried with her final climax as he panted through his last climax. They laid in each other's arms being rocked and lulled into a post orgasmic euphoria. Rico set an alarm on his watch to wake them 1 hour before Sonny's alarm. "Rico we need to talk." She spoke half sleepily. "I know baby we will, my alarm is set for 6 Sleep my Gia"
