"Closest units please report… We have a report of trespassing at the Warner Warehouse …."

Andy flicked her eyes over to her partner trying to see if it was something he was interested in taking. He met her glance with a what are you waiting for McNally look. She reached over to pick up the radio responding simply, "1505 in route. ETA five minutes."

"Copy that," came the simple reply of the dispatch.

To say that the working relationship had been a bit tense ever since she'd gone in that Laundromat after Lydia would be a bit of an understatement. While Sam still hadn't yelled at her about her decision to run in after the dead owner's wife, Andy still knew that he hadn't quite forgiven her yet. She knew that Sam worried about her, it was only logical, they were partners after all. That's what partners did. Still a little pang in her gut told her that she and Sam were definitely more than partners. She knew instinctively that if it was Sam that had been trapped in that building that she would have gone insane.

From what Oliver had told her, well okay, accidently told her, Sam was not being very cooperative. In fact, he was downright difficult especially towards Jo. Not exactly his favorite person, but then again, Sam's gut hadn't really liked her from the start. Maybe she caves in a bit and trusts his gut. Her own was gnawing at her a bit ever since the dealership sting.

"1505, be advised possible robbery suspect in building. He may be armed. Six foot, male Caucasian, dark blue hoodie and jeans."

Andy reached for the radio only to stop and pull back her hand quickly when Sam's hand met hers. He smirked at her jumpiness and pulled the radio up to respond. "1505 copy."

When they got to the warehouse, Sam was reminding her again how it would go down. Guns out, safety off. Use the flashlight. No heroics. Get in look around. Meet back in ten minutes.

He didn't miss the slight roll of her eye as he looked her dead in the face trying to ascertain that she understood him. She nodded and followed him into the building. When they split up, Sam had to struggle to keep his head focused and his heart from pounding out of his chest. It seemed that every time Andy wasn't paired with him lately or not in some kind of proximity, she got hurt. He knew that he had to swallow down his fear for her or she'd be pissed at him. She was a damn good cop and she already had enough doubts, he wasn't going to add his perceived doubts about her abilities.

As Sam started to calm down he heard sounds of a scuffle coming from where he'd sent McNally. His heart plummeted and panic started to sit heavily in his chest. He reached for his radio without a second thought, "McNally report."

He waiting in silence for her reply. The noises subsided for a bit as he walked towards them and it sounded like all hell broke loose. Sam had to stop himself from taking off in a dead run while still moving quickly. He could hear things smashing and falling to the ground.

Her voice crackled over the radio in a tone he knew meant she was scared and trying not to show it. "Bohemian Rhapsody."

Sam heard the trigger phrase from the sting a few weeks back and took off barreling towards where he'd sent her.

I hope you guys like it. I know it was a bit short, and this may possibly just a quickie. I'm debating leaving it as a one shot, but I've got a few ideas where I could possibly go from here with it. Let me know if you think I should continue or leave it alone.
