CHAPTER ONE
They had a fight. It was stupid and uncalled for. Andrew Michael Flynn once again couldn't keep it in his mouth and said all the wrong things.
She left. She said "I need some air" and that was it. This happened two hours ago. No call, no message, no nothing. He wouldn't call her, not yet.
Because he knew that she wouldn't answer if he did. Because after that day at the office they were both exhausted and couldn't function properly.
That was mainly the reason for their fight.
The suspect was about to confess so he was a little unstable. He was crying, trying to reason with them. Sharon was having none of it.
"Mister Levy I think that we've heard enough. Please write it all down and we'll think about your deal later. She was about to leave the room when the
suspect lost it and threw the table trying to attack Sharon screaming that he wasn't going down for this bullshit. Thankfully Julio was there to save her
from anything harmful and he pinned down the suspect to a wall. Andy was in the control room but the second he saw the suspect making a move he
left there in an instant and was by Sharon's side immediately. He took her by her arm and forced her out of the interview room. Sharon was in awe of
this action. How dare he do such a thing in the work place. This is not how they usually handled these things. What was he thinking? Was he thinking?
No. Andy was not thinking with his brain at the moment. He was her boyfriend and not her lieutenant and the thought of someone hurting Sharon
made him act like the way he did. Of course he knew Sharon was more than capable of taking care of herself and Julio was there for a reason. She was
going to kill him. The moment he grabbed her arm and yanked her out of the interview room and dragged her to her office to make sure she was really
okay he officiated his death. Sharon wasn't able to form words she just stood there and gave him the "Darth Raydor" glare and after a few minutes
with her iced cold tone of hers said "If you'll excuse me Lt. Flynn I was in the middle of an interview." She left him hanging there and kept her distance
with him the rest of the day. By the end the case was closed and everyone was gone but the two of them. Andy got up from his desk and with all the
courage he can get knocked on her office door. "Come in." He did as he was asked and said "I'm ready to head out home whenever you are." and he
almost missed it but heard her say "Fine." They were both silent on the way home. When they arrived they both got rid of their keys and shoes and
Sharon went straight to the kitchen to make some tea. Andy was at the couch mentally preparing himself for a lecture on why they agreed in the first
place to keep their personal and professional lives apart. She came out of the kitchen holding her favorite green mug and made brief eye contact with
him and went to their bedroom. He was going to follow her but decided not to. Thankfully Rusty was with Gus so he wasn't going to witness anything
that was about to happen. She came back with her tea and a pair of yoga pants and a green top. She sat across him on the big comfortable red chair.
For the first time that day she made eye contact with him but didn't talk. Andy decided to go for it and said "Look, Sharon I know what I did today was
not right but.." "Not right!?Andy please, how many times have we discussed these things? You can't jump out of your seat every single time something
bad happens like you're some kind of knight in a shining armour. Mainly it's bad for your health, you know your blood pressure and you have to
remember that I'm the head of that divison. What you did today was not only wrong but out of order. I will not have that happening ever again. Ever.
We agreed that I would only be the boss at work and that everything else would be a discussion. Please just at least try to temember that before you
do something like this.". While Sharon was talking Andy was up and pacing around the living room trying to calm down. How could she be so calm about
all of this? Fine she was not hurt or anything but still. What if that scumbag threw the table at her? What if she was somehow badly injured? What
would happen than? "How can you be like this Sharon? How can you expect me to just sit there and wait for somebody to rescue you while I'm
watching like a puppy? I know that we have a deal and believe me I do my best to stick to your rules but.. This is too much. Do you have any idea what
was going on in my head at that moment? What if something bad happened to you while I was not even there? How can you expect me to do nothing?
"Andy please calm down, this is not good for you." "I don't care if it's good or not!" Andy was really getting angry. I mean how can someone be like
this? "Andy you're not thinking straight. Just please calm down and hear me out. I'm not saying that you shouldn't do anything. I'm only saying that the
way you handled the incident today was wrong. You literally grabbed me by my arm and dragged me to my own office behind you like I was some
fragile little girl and that is not the impression that I want to leave on my subordinates and my boss. So please just admit it; you acted without thinking
straight and you shouldn't have.". "I SHOULDN'T HAVE?Are you kidding me Sharon? That dirtbag was throwing a goddamn table at you. What did you
expect me to do? Give him a round of applause and a bouquet of flowers?!" "Okay I've heard enough. You need to calm down and start thinking
properly and I need some air. I'm heading out." "Where are you going?". But there was no sound. The only thing he heard was the door closing behind
Sharon. How great he thought to himself after she left. He tried to calm down and after a while he was able to reason with Sharon a bit more than
before. It was nearing 11 o'clock now. He didn't want to call her but the urge was too strong so he did. But it went straight to voicemail. He checked his
watch again and she was gone for over half an hour. He thought "What the hell?" and grabbed his keys to go find her. He first tried the parking lot to
see if she left with the car just went out to take a walk. When he got to the floor the sight that greeted him was blood boiling. The car was there but
the drivers side window was broken and Sharon's keys were on the ground. Ther were drag marks leading to the elevator and Andy was pretty sure
who they belonged to. He just stood there for a few seconds and then flew to the elevator to try and catch up with whoever took Sharon. It was a lost
cause he knew but he couldn't think of anything else. Once he got to the lobby he came back to his senses and dialed Provenza's number. His partner
was grumpy as always but he didn't have time for that and said "We have a huge problem..."
