Fist time fanfiction writer. Please feel free to give me any criticism. I would love to read your reviews. This is a pretty short chapter, but I plan to have chapter 2 up soon!

Chapter 1

The day was ugly, the sky was dark and gray, almost angry, reflecting Andy's mood exactly. She was angry, not at Sam, at herself. She handled last night terribly and she knew it, she should have thought before she spoke, been more careful with her words, but it was too late now. Last night had happened and she had to face the consequences. She looked at her partner, since she and Sam had been dating they were reassigned, something about their personal lives affecting their decision making skills, so now she was partnered with Tracy Nash, not only one of the best cops she knew, but her best friend. Most days she loved being in the patrol car with her but today was different. She knew Tracy would find out, and soon, Tracy's boyfriend just happened to be Sam's best friend, it was great for double dates but terrible for keeping things between her and Sam from Tracy.

"So, Sam asked me to move in last night." Andy regretted the words as soon as she said them.

Tracy looked at Andy in shock, "So?"

"I said no." She knew Tracy wasn't going to leave it at that.

"And how did that go over?"

"He was fine, until I opened my mouth and told him why I didn't want to move in."

"And that would be why, exactly?" Tracy knew Andy could see the disappointment on her face, but she couldn't hide it, they were so perfect together, and Andy deserved a little happiness after the year she had.

"Well, he was completely understanding until I told him that I didn't want to make the same mistakes with him that I made with Luke. He blew up."

"Honey, can you blame him? That's the same as comparing him to that sleaze bag. You pretty much told Sam you think he's gonna do the same thing to you that Fluke did." She knew her nickname for Detective Callaghan would at least bring a little smile to her friend's face.

"I realize that now, but there is just no way for me to apologize to him, I've never seen him so mad, he just kept going on and on about how he keeps suffering the consequences of Luke's actions, and how I can't move past him. I just don't know what to do. If Luke had been around at the time, I really think Sam would have killed him."

Tracy scoffed and nodded her head, "I'm surprised he hasn't already."

The conversation was over as quickly as it started, when a call came over the radio.

"All units, we have a 10-24 shots fired at 55 John St. Officer down."

Andy looked at Tracy and switched on the alarms, "This is 15-09 on our way."

Tracy made a quick u-turn and headed to the scene of the crime.

"I wonder who was shot?" Tracy wondered out loud, she glanced over to Andy who had her phone to her ear, impatiently tapping her fingers on the console.

"Sam! Oh my god, ok. You're ok. You're ok."

"Mcnally, what the hell are you talking about? Of course I'm ok, I'm at my house, you know? The one I offered to share with you, you turned it down. Ringing any bells?"

"Shut up Swarek. We got a call for shots fired, an officer's been shot. I wasn't thinking, it was reflex to call and make sure you were ok and you are. We're here."

Andy slapped the phone closed with a look of relief and anger all at once.

Tracy pulled the cruiser up to the rundown house on John, they slipped out of the car, looking around. "There's no cruiser here, I don't know of any officers who live out here." Andy was completely confused, how did an officer get here without a cruiser, unless he was undercover? But the precinct would have known of any undercover work going on and radioed that information as well. Andy pulled her gun out of the holster and looked at Tracy who did the same, and they walked to the door. "Police, we're coming in!"

Andy scanned the room for the assailant, cleared it for Tracy. They quickly moved into the next room and split up from there, they needed to check the house quickly and find the wounded officer. As she moved through the house, she couldn't help but think there had to be a mistake, she and Tracy had checked almost the whole house.

"I got nothin. You?

Tracy stopped behind Andy and looked at her, there were tears in her eyes and she was shaking. "Andy?" Tracy turned and looked in the direction that Andy was, she saw a figure in the floor at the end of the long hallway.

"It's Luke." Andy was in shock, she was paralized. Tracy ran to him, he had been shot in the chest, the bullet just missed his heart. She was shaking when she called it in, "This is Officer Nash, we need an ambulance to 55 John St. Officer down, he's fading fast."

"This is dispatch, ambulance is on the way E.T.A. two minutes."

Just then she heard the sirens, "Andy, help is here. Luke is gonna be fine, I promise."
