Disclaimer: I do not own Rookie Blue
A/N: This story is inspired by Standing Here by Last Winter. K+ for now but that might change. I can't wait to see what happens in tonight's episode, I've been counting down all week! Enjoy!
Starlit, I'm already losing it
When you left an hour ago
And the stars are bright but I
Miss you I just can't hide it
Sam is lying awake in bed. No matter how hard he tries, he can't get Andy off his mind. Her scent is intoxicating and even after a week it still lingers on his sheets. He could lie to himself and say that she's just his rookie, but after what happened that night he knows he can't. Although Andy may have come to forget, he let her kiss him. For that short time she was his and he liked it.
Because when I see you waking
God it's a feeling no one knows
I see you wake, then you go
I'll wait for you
So tell yourself you're just afraid
Believe the things you told yourself before
But I'm standing here
Usually Sam can hide his feelings well, pretend he doesn't have feelings beyond friendship, but when he saw the tears in Andy's eyes it nearly killed him. He saw her pain and wanted to take it all away. He'd do anything to bring the sparkle back into her eyes.
He feels as if everything that happened that night was his fault. He should have been able to control himself better. He allowed himself to fall for Andy and believe what happened was real, but when the power turned back on it was like she was waking up from a dream.
So trust in me as I trust in you
Just let go of the pain
That you hold on to
I'm standing here
When Sam learned about Andy's plans to go to Callaghan's fishing cabin, he felt hurt and threw out the coffee that he had bought her. He avoided her and broke her trust by not being there for her. He let his jealousy get the best of him.
Starlit, I'm already losing it
When you left an hour ago
So I'll hold my breath
And I'll see you soon
Sam knows exactly what he has to do. He needs to talk to Andy and tell her why he said "it was what it was". He needs her to know how he feels about her. Even if she doesn't feel the same way, he needs her to know that she can still trust him and come to him with anything. He needs her to know that if she needs him, he's standing here and he's never leaving.
