A man's biggest mistake is giving another man an opportunity to make his woman smile. If you love her, you shouldn't be giving any guy that chance. It should be you making her smile.
He saw her smile.
He saw her smile at Frank as the whole room heard about her good news. Her smile, something that Luke was getting too damn much of.
He watched as she walked out of parade with that grand smile.
He didn't know when he knew, but now her smile invaded his thoughts.
It might have been the time she smiled so cockily at her first arrest. She arrested him, but he saw the corners of her mouth turn. No teeth involved, just a simple upward of the lips. He still remembered, though.
Maybe, it was the second time, the time when she saved his ass. It was most definitely that time. He saw her from over the hood of the car. It was a smile of pride. He'd given her something no one else had. He'd given her reassurance, that yes, she was going to be a great cop. An amazing cop.
As he watched her now, she made her way over to her fiancée. It hurt. It really did. Not only his, whatever that one organ was, but his mind. It hurt to know that he wasn't the one making her smile the way she was today.
He'd thought about it many times. Saying something. Just maybe if he got it out there then she would see. It wasn't that simple, though. Nothing was.
He walked out of parade. She was still in his office. Smiling. It was like something was trying to give him a sign.
This only made him angrier.
He got a piece of gum to chew on. That always helped with her. When he had to say things that he hated saying; he would chew. It was easy. She didn't see.
He knew he was paired with her today. He grunted to himself. It was going to be a hard day, a long day.
As he saw her walking to the cruiser, he saw that smile.
He decided then, it was his turn to make her smile.
He had to try.
And he did make her smile. More than a couple of times that day.
A/N: This is a very random idea. Something I found on tumblr; The Rules of a Gentleman. I read some and thought of Sam and Andy. They invade my thoughts a lot. Just they need to get together before I go insane. Anyways, I knew I had to write this down. I hope you all enjoyed and don't hesitate to review. :)
