So as my other two stories Matter of seconds and Can I let him in are coming to an end I can finally post this and get some feed back before I continue.

Andy scoffed as she stormed out of the restaurant pulling her coat closer as she hurried down the street "what an ass," she muttered to herself as she crossed the street.

Getting to a nearby bench she dropped onto it with a sigh, watching people and cars pass by for a few minutes she pulled out her phone and looked down on it. Shaking her head she pressed two and played with her bag strap as it rang "hey," she drawled as soon as it was answered.

"Aren't you supposed to be on a date with homicide?" they asked.

Andy sighed "don't say I told you so Deano….come pick me up?" she asked.

Dean chuckled "I told you to stay away from him, what did he do?"

Andy opened her mouth to explained but remembered who she was talking to "nothing, can you come pick me up?"

"Sure, not like I have a job or anything," Dean replied "where are you?" he asked.

Andy looked around "I'm across the street from that diner Charlie's," she said.

"Alright but only because you're my sister," Dean replied "but I'm in the middle of something here go wait in the diner, I'll be about half an hour."

"Thank you," Andy replied "I'll see you soon, bye," she said and hung up.

Settling back into the bench she looked around and started to think about her date, she looked up when a woman stormed by her with a guy hurrying behind her.

"What's your problem?" he yelled when he caught up to her.

The girl scoffed and turned back to him "really?" she yelled "you made me feel like a cheap tart!"

The guy rolled his eyes "not very hard to do when you're sleeping with half the guys in the warehouse and wearing such short dresses all the time!"

The girl scoffed again and waved a taxi in "you're an asshole I can't believe I agreed to out with you, my sister warned me to stay away from you I shoulda listened to her!" she yelled and climbed into the taxi.

The guys stood shaking his head watching the taxi drive away. Andy sat watching and couldn't help but laugh, the guy looked over at her "something funny?" he asked taking a step closer to her.

"Yeah," Andy nodded "you guys are all the same."

"Meaning?" he asked taking another step to her.

"Meaning," she said and looked up at him "you're all assholes just looking for one thing."

The guy scoffed and dropped down beside her "and you women know what you want?"

"Uh yeah," Andy nodded.

He chuckled "you're all nuts."

Andy giggled "you drive us to it."

He sat back into the bench and looked her up and down "so what has you sitting here all bitter and beautiful?" he asked.

Andy blushed and looked down "same as your date," she said and looked over at him "my date was an asshole."

He chuckled "what did he do?"

Andy scoffed "put his hand up my dress and suggest we go back to his place and that is me cleaning it up a lot-we hadn't even ordered yet."

He chuckled again "maybe that's his line."

"No, that explains why he's still single," Andy replied.

He stood up and shook his head "well since we're both dateless and it's still early you wanna grab a coffee?" he asked nodding to the diner.

Andy smiled "that depends…you gonna make me feel cheap too?"

He chuckled lightly "nah…your dress is too long-and I promise I wont put my hand up there."

Andy stood up "well then how can I say no," she said and walked by him.

"I'm JD by the way!" he called after her.

"Andy!" she called back and pushed the door in.

JD followed her and sat across from her "so Andy what do you do?"

Andy looked up from her menu she didn't know why but she felt uneasy telling people she was a cop-especially people she had just met "oh nothing as exciting as a nine to five job, you?"

"Nothing fancy," he replied "forklift driver at a warehouse downtown," he said and ordered their coffees.

They fell into conversation and after a while fell into silence JD noticed she kept glancing at her phone "somewhere you need to be?" he asked.

Andy looked over at him and smiled quickly "sorry, my brother was supposed to be here for me ten minutes ago."

JD nodded "just you and him?"

Andy nodded "and my dad…you?"

"Just me and my sister," he replied.

Andy nodded "you live around here?"

"Yeah, that run down apartment block beside the bus station you?" he asked.

"Spidina," Andy replied "I live with my best friend Traci and her little boy."

"Do you have any kids?" he asked curiously.

"No just Leo and my niece Katie, she's six months old and so cute," she giggled "what about you?"

"Nah, just my niece and two nephews….you working tomorrow?" he asked.

"Yep," Andy nodded "midday to midnight…why?" she asked.

"Well I'm enjoying the company felt like doing it again sometime," he said reaching over and picking up her phone.

"What are you doing?" she asked.

JD placed her phone back beside her "storing my number if you feel like meeting me for coffee after your shift tomorrow."

Andy looked out and saw Dean pull up and stood up "my brother's here I better go," she said and picked up her phone "thanks for the coffee way better than my date," she giggled and walked towards the door "I'll call you if I change my mind!" she called back.

JD chuckled "look forward to seeing you again Andy!" he called and watched her climb into the car.

"Who's the guy?" Dean asked looking in at him.

Andy looked back at him as she closed the door and smiled there was just something about this guy "a new friend," she said and pulled on her belt.


When they pulled up at Andy's she kissed him on the cheek and climbed out "Thanks Deano I owe you big!" she called as she walked up her drive.

"Hey And!" he called after her "you never did tell me what homicide did."

Andy shook her head she was hoping he'd forget about that "put his hand up my dress and suggested we go do stuff."

"What!" Dean yelled horrified.

Andy chuckled and turned back to him" I am the older sister her Deano, I dealt with it leave it be, night!" she called and let herself in.

Dean shook his head "leave it be my ass," he muttered and pulled away.

Inside Traci frowned and looked up from the tv as the front door opened and closed "you're home early," she said as Andy stuck her head in the door.

"Ugh," Andy groaned and threw her shoes on the floor and dropped down beside her "he was a creepy ass."

"I told you to stay away from him," Traci chuckled "I told you what that guy from his old station told me about him…what did he do?" she asked.

Andy shook her head "I know you did but he was so sweet and nice and said all the right things," she said and reached for the wine glass on the table "then he goes and sticks his hand up my dress."

"No way!" Traci shrieked "what did you do?" she laughed.

Andy tilted her head to the side "let's just say he won't be walking properly for a few days," she giggled.

"Nice," Traci nodded "hang on," she said thinking of something "you text me almost two hours ago about the restaurant what have you been doing since?"

Andy smiled as she thought about JD "nothing much," she said and stood up "just had a coffee while I waited for Deano."

Traci followed her as she walked to the stairs "you weren't alone were you?" she asked grinning at her.

Andy turned around halfway up the stairs her smile widening "maybe I was maybe I wasn't…night Trac," she said and walked up the rest and into her room.

A few minutes later as she suspected there was a knock on her door "come in," she chuckled.

Traci slipped in and closed the door behind her "who'd you meet?" she asked dropping onto the bed beside her.

Andy smiled and turned to face her "alright…I met a guy."

"I knew it!" Traci squealed

Andy chuckled "he was actually arguing with his own date before she took off in a taxi."

"From one ass to another, nice Andy," Traci said rolling her eyes.

"That's the thing," Andy said going off into a daze "he wasn't like that with me, he was so nice and funny and so so hot," she giggled.

Traci rolled her eyes again she knew how Andy could get when it came to guys "so does this mr hottie have a name?" she asked.

Andy nodded "JD-he works in a warehouse and lives nearby."

"Are you going to see him again?" Traci asked.

Andy shrugged "he asked me to meet him for coffee after shift tomorrow."

Traci sighed "so you have his number?"

Andy nodded "he stuck it into my phone before I left."

Traci stood up "okay," she said and walked to the door "it's really good to see you smile like that again…but please be careful with this one," she said and pulled the door open.

"What's that supposed to mean?" Andy asked.

Traci stopped just outside the door "you know what it means…night," she said and closed the door after her.

…..

Andy sat on the bed confused she had no idea what Traci meant by that comment and she knew she couldn't get any sleep unless she asked her out straight. Climbing off her bed she walked out of her room and down the hall to Traci's "Trac," she whispered loudly and tapped on the door.

"Yeah?" she called back "you can come in I'm dressed."

Andy came into the room and walked to the bed "I'm sorry I know I should leave it but I can't until I know what you meant, I mean it's just coffee what's the big deal? I haven't even decided if I was going yet."

Traci sighed and sat on the bed "Andy don't take this the wrong way," she said choosing her words carefully "when you meet a guy you tend to jump in without thinking."

"I do not" Andy scoffed.

Traci shook her head "you do so-do you remember Mark?" she asked "that was a total disaster."

"Well I didn't know he had another girlfriend did I!" Andy snapped.

"Not the point," Traci said "two months after meeting him you were all but ready to move in with him."

"Traci," Andy sighed "I wasn't going to move in I just liked staying there."

"Andy if that girl hadn't tracked you down you'd still be with him letting him make a fool out of you-you even told Gail she was jealous when she told you she saw him at a club all over her…I don't want that to happen with this guy," she said and climbed into her bed "just be careful."

Andy sighed and stood up "I know I haven't the best track record with guys but there is something about this guy Trac."

"Well take it slow and find out," Traci replied.

Andy walked to the door "night Trac," she said and slipped out and went back to her own room.

After getting ready for bed she lay back against her pillow and looked over at her phone and sighed and lay down. Rolling on her side she looked at the phone again, sitting up she picked it up and pulled up his number, looking down on it for a second she rolled her eyes and went into messages why do you wanna see me again? She asked and sent it.


JD lay on his bed and chuckled at the text, he sent a reply Andy I'll assume? I don't know it might have something to do with how hot you are…just kidding, I had fun wanted to do it again, so is that a yes?' he sent it and sat back waiting on a reply.

Andy chuckled and replied why? Do you hand out your number to any girl that looks at you? She giggled and sent it.

JD chuckled and replied no you're the first girl to get it, so?

Andy bit on her lip "just coffee right?" she asked herself and sent a reply yes, same diner after midnight.

JD smiled at her reply as he replied there was a knock at his door. Walking to it he pulled it open, seeing who was on the other side he walked back into the kitchen "Boyd?" he asked as soon as the door closed.

"We nearly have enough to move on Brennan, all we need to know is where he is keeping the money…do you think you can find that out in the next twenty-four hours Sammy?" he asked.

Sam nodded "I can…no more JD?" he asked.

Boyd nodded and walked back to the door "back to fifteen back to Swarek…I'll be in touch," he said and slipped out the door.

Sam walked back to his bed and picked up his phone sighing as it flashed delivered to Andy, he sighed again and threw it down the one girl he meets that he can actually stand to be around and he's already lied to her.

Climbing into his bed he sighed again from what he's seen from her so far she seems to be the type of girl he'd go for. She was smart funny didn't judge and she wasn't afraid to speak her mind, and the one thing that stood out to him most was her smile-she really was beautiful.

Sighing for the final time he rolled on his side and closed his eyes, he really wanted something to happen with her he was tired of moving around being someone else and most of all he was tired of being alone. He decided he was gonna bring Brennan down, get back to fifteen and tell her the truth, he just hoped she understood.

….

The next morning he rolled out of bed and went straight for a shower with Andy on his mind, should he tell her and blow it or should he just wait and see if it goes anywhere first?

After his shower he took a look around his crappy apartment before slipping out and headed off to work.

Arriving at the warehouse he walked over to two guys sitting on a nearby table "Jimmy, Dan," he nodded and sat beside them "you two sleep here?" he chuckled.

Jimmy chuckled "if you did some work instead of chasing tail all the time JD you'd know we had the night shift."

"And just as well too," Dan said "cops came by an hour ago."

"Cops?" Sam frowned.

"Yeah, came by looking for the boss," Jimmy said.

"We told them he wasn't here and they left saying they'd call back," Dan said.

Sam nodded and pushed himself off the table "better go make sure they don't find anything when they do," he said and started to walk across the floor.

"Good man JD!" Jimmy called after him "never even thought about that!"

Sam chuckled and turned back to them "I'm not just a pretty face you know…go home and get some sleep!" he called on his way up the stairs. He liked Jimmy and Dan they had to be the only two not involved with Brennan's dodgy dealing although he did think they knew about it and just pretended they didn't-he'd already told Boyd they weren't to be touched.

A few minutes later he was too busy rummaging through papers on the desk that he missed Jamie Brennan leaning against the door watching him "looking for something JD?" he asked.

Sam closed his eyes for a second he'd just come across a bank account in the name of the daughter Brennan had lost last year. "No boss," he said and turned to face him "cops were snooping around earlier I just wanted to make sure there was nothing out for when they came back."

Jamie nodded "thanks, but why don't you let me worry about that," he said walking to the desk "an order just came in I need you to sort."

Sam nodded and walked to the door "sure thing boss," he said and slipped by him, sort an order meant lift it off the truck and take out the drugs before it was moved on. As he made his way down to the forklift he sent Boyd a message cops from 15 here snooping around the warehouse, make sure they don't come back Why would Frank send cops over here when he knew he was undercover here? Shaking his head he deleted the message and climbed up to the forklift.

Later that day he stopped for lunch and decided to head to his favourite deli not far away. When he arrived there he spotted a cruiser parked up outside, looking at the number he chuckled it was none other than his best friend Oliver Shaw who just so happened to love this place as much as he did.

Walking inside he spotted him right away with another officer, walking by them he stopped at the counter and listened to some of their conversation.

"Diaz will you just stop," Oliver groaned.

"But it would mean a lot to Andy and Traci if you came," Diaz replied.

Oliver sighed "Diaz they're a year as Detectives they're not leaving you'll just have to party without me."

"But I know it would mean a lot to Andy you were her training officer you should be there," Diaz said.

Oliver sighed and rubbed his head "fine if it gets you to shu…" he trailed off as Sam grinned back at him and winked "to shut up I'll go," he said smiling quickly at Sam.

Sam walked out with his lunch Andy and Traci?" he said to himself…has to be a coincidence. As he crossed the street a gray car went by him with who he swore was Andy in the passenger seat, shaking his head he sighed "get it together man," he said and walked back into the warehouse, she seemed to be everywhere he went.


Andy and Traci walked into the station to start their shift "oh, before I forget," Traci said "is it okay it okay if Jerry stays over tonight?"

"Sure, no problem you know you don't have to ask Trac it's your house too," Andy replied.

"I know," Traci said as they dumped their bags in their lockers "I still like to ask though."

"It's fine, I have no problem with Jerry staying over he is your boyfriend after all…tell you what," Andy said as they walked to the D's office "since Dex has Leo tonight I'm gonna give you the house to yourself."

"Andy you don't have to do that," Traci said as they checked their messages "where are you gonna sleep the backyard?" she chuckled.

"No," Andy giggled "I'll crash at Chris and Dov's."

"You don't have to do that Andy we won't be home till after midnight anyway," Traci said as they walked towards the parade room.

"So?" Andy asked "night time is when you can have the most fun," she giggled.

Frank walked in clearly in bad mood "alright settle down!" he boomed "we had a near hit and miss with an undercover operation this morning, this case is not only important to guns and gangs but to us too so stay away from Jamie Brennan's warehouse and anything related to him this case will be wrapped up soon. Assignments are on the board, Diaz and Price you'll be helping Detectives McNally and Nash today…McNally I need to see you!" he called on his way out the door.

"Dude what have you done now?" Dov asked from behind her.

"Nothing," Andy said and stood up "I'll meet you at the office," she said to Traci and hurried off to Frank's office. Knocking at the door she walked in "you wanted to see me?"

"Yes Andy have a seat," he said in a better mood.

Andy walked in and sat down "am I in trouble?" she asked.

"No," he chuckled.

"Oh okay…is it about a case?" she asked wondering what else he could want her for.

Frank looked over at her "two weeks from now you'll have your own partner so you'll no longer have to share Jerry with Nash," he chuckled.

"Yes," Andy giggled "it's about time…they've finally sent us someone to replace Cruz?" she asked.

"Not exactly," Frank said and pulled out a file "he started off here with me Jerry and Ollie-we're still actually very good friends... He's from fifteen but hasn't been here for about three years."

"So what happened to him then?" Andy asked

"He got the calling for undercover," he chuckled and handed her his file "best in town…read over him I know him he'll just want to dive back in as soon as he gets back."

Andy nodded and stood up "I will and thanks Frank," she said and slipped out the door.

…..

Andy opted to be on her own for break instead of her usual with Traci and Jerry, she sat away from everyone with her new partners file and opened it "Sam Swarek," she said out loud "no picture," she said looking to the corner where your picture was normally stapled. Shrugging she moved on and scanned the pages taking in as much she could.

"Colourful file," she said when she was done he had done a lot this Swarek guy-plenty of undercovers too-she kinda admired him even though she hadn't met him yet "at least I know he'll have my back," she said as she placed his file in her desk drawer.

"Andy!" Traci called from the door "lets go we got a body!" she called.

"Great," Andy sighed and stood up "not even halfway through the day yet," she said and walked out towards her car.

When they arrived at the scene she groaned "another girl same mo," she said as she and Traci examined the body.

"Yeah," Traci nodded "look, the ties on her hands have been snipped too," she said pointing to it.

Andy looked down at the girls hands "this is the fourth body like this in two weeks…you think we have a serial killer on our hands?"

"I think it's a college kid bored on the weekends," Jerry said joining them "Emily waters, nineteen, second year student over at Kempton," he said handing Andy an Id.

Andy sighed "another one from Kempton, I'll go to her dorm and speak to her room mate, meet you back at the station!" she called as she walked back to her car.

Traci frowned looking at something they hadn't seen on the girls before "look at that Jerry," she said moving closer "is that a bite mark?" she asked.

Jerry moved closer "it looks like one-could have been her boyfriend before she went missing."

Traci nodded "I'll call Andy and ask her to ask about a boyfriend," she said and walked away with her phone.

Andy pulled in and answered her phone "Trac?"

"Hey, we found a bite mark on the back of her shoulder could you ask her room mate had she a boyfriend or any recent dates?" she asked

"Sure," Andy replied "I'll call you with what I got," she said and hung up.

As she climbed out a beat up car went by her, she shook her head when the driver looked like JD. Looking back at it again she scoffed "like he'd just drive by me," she chuckled and made her way inside she was starting to get nervous about tonight "it's not a date," she said to herself.


Midnight had finally come and Andy practically ran out of the station "need a lift Andy?" Jerry called after her.

"No thanks Jerry got somewhere I need to be!" she called and disappeared out the door.

Sam chuckled as she dropped down beside him "rough day?" he asked.

"Like you wouldn't believe," she replied and pulled off her coat "how was your day?"

"Same old…you hungry?" he asked.

"Starved," Andy said and picked up the menu "I got lost in a file on break so I barely ate anything."

"What kinda file?" Sam asked curiously.

Andy looked over at him "never mind…I don't like to talk about work when I'm not there," she said and looked down at her menu again.

"Okay," he said slowly wondering why she was being so secretive about her job "you working on Saturday night?" he asked.

Andy ordered her food and looked over at him "finish at four why?" she asked.

"I was thinking about asking you out on a real date," he replied.

Andy nodded and placed her menu down "how about we just stick to coffee for now," she said.

"Okay," he said again slowly.

Andy saw the disappointed look on his face and leaned forward "it's me JD I'm not that long out of a relationship I'm not ready to get back out there yet."

Sam nodded "I understand," he said "no problem."

Andy sighed "I was with him for three years we were two months away from getting married then he went and cheated on me….so did the next guy I met after him," she muttered.

Sam placed his hand on top of her "I'm sorry I didn't mean to upset you."

Andy smiled quickly "it's fine I'm over it-over them both, but I have learned a lesson," she chuckled.

"And what lesson would that be?" he asked.

"Never trust a guy-no matter what he says," she chuckled "that idiot last night was the first date I'd been on in eight months."

"Wow," Sam said "really?" he asked "you?" he asked when she nodded again.

"Yes, what's so hard to believe about that?" Andy asked.

"I find it hard to believe that a gorgeous woman like you hasn't been on a date is eight months, you must have guys queuing up around the block to ask you out," he said.

Andy blushed and looked down "all morons," she said and looked up at him "present company excluded."

Sam chuckled "right moving on, if you don't wanna go on a date how about coffee here again Saturday?"

Andy nodded "okay, deal-but we're not meeting this late," she added.

Sam nodded "say six?"

Andy nodded "six it is," she said and smiled up at the waitress as her food was placed down.

"Wanna go for a walk or something after this?" he asked.

Andy looked over at him "you wanna go for a walk at almost one am?"

"Well what do you suggest we do?" he chuckled.

"Uh go home," she giggled "you have work in the morning and I have another long shift."

Sam nodded "alright I'll walk you home then that'll count as a walk."

Andy giggled "how do you know I didn't drive here?"

"Because I saw you walk around the corner," he chuckled.

Andy giggled "fine, you can walk me home-although I'm not going home, I'm staying with my mates tonight."

"Still counts as walking you home," he smiled and went back to his food.

….

When they were finished and Andy protested about paying for her own food before they finally hit the streets. "Next time coffee is on me," she said and pulled her coat closer to her.

"You cold?" he asked as she shivered.

"Yeah but I'll be there in a minute," she replied as they turned the corner.

"Here," Sam said shrugging off his coat and wrapping it around her shoulders.

"Thanks," she smiled and held onto it "what are you gonna do for the rest of the night?"

"Go home and fall into my bed-you?" he asked.

"Probably sit up half the night playing death domain with my mates," she giggled.

"Wouldn't have pegged you as a console girl," he chuckled.

Andy chuckled and stopped outside their door "there's a lot of things you don't know about me…actually you don't know anything about me," she said and chuckled again.

"Well," Sam said pulling her closer by his coat "hopefully time will change that," he said slowly slipping it off her shoulders "need my keys," he said when she stared back at him.

"Oh, right," Andy nodded for a minute there she thought he was gonna kiss her "well night then and thanks for the food," she said walking up the front steps.

"Hey Andy!" he called just as she got to the top.

"Hm?" she asked turning back to him.

He walked up the steps and stopped in front of her "forgot to give you something," he said and leaned in kissing her slowly. Pulling back he smiled at her "I'm sorry I was dying to kiss you," he chuckled.

"It's okay," she nodded and stepped closer to him that kiss had blown her away "night," she said and kissed him again deepening it slightly.

Sam placed his hands on her hips and pulled her closer if he was honest this was the best kiss he'd ever had-helped she was an amazing kisser too. Groaning he pulled back "you better get inside."

Andy smiled and banged on the door "it's me!" she called knowing neither would move.

"I'll leave you to it…night," Sam smiled and backed down the steps "I'll see you Saturday," he said and walked back the way he'd come.

Andy stood in a daze watching him go missing Dov standing behind her with raised eyebrows "dude?" he called.

When she didn't answer her punched her in the arm "what are you looking at? Get inside," he chuckled.

"Nothing," Andy said still watching him go.

"Andy come on!" Chris yelled from inside "it's freezing out!"

"Sorry," she said pulling herself from her daze and hurried inside she did not see that coming-it was totally amazing.
