This is ANOTHER version of what happened the night of the blackout. I know that this is last but it came to me one night that I wished this is what happened...Only my second FanFiction so I'll take constructive criticism. I'm thinking 2 chapters.
Andy looked up at Sam from her place on his bed. He was above her, dressed only in jeans, making her feel like she was the only woman in the world. She never wanted this moment to end. If only the lights had come back on Andy would have kept kissing him, however the sounds coming from various electronics broke the spell that the two had fallen into. Andy pulled back to look into Sam's eyes, the regret in them was palpable. Not because they had started this but because they had stopped.
"I guess things go back to normal." Andy had meant that the CITY would return to normal, but she suddenly feared that they would as well.
Sam stood up, mumbling something about turning things off. Andy froze as she felt her phone go off. She couldn't believe her luck, Luke was calling at the absolute worst moment. Well, she thought, I can think of a moment that would have been A LOT worse. One I wish we had made it to. The phone call reminded Andy that she was "taken" right now. Sam wasn't just a booty call and he deserved better then what she was giving him now, So she slowly put her shirt back on.
When Sam came back into the room and saw what she was doing his heart broke. "I guess everything really is going back to normal." He turned and walked back into the kitchen, unable to look at her. Andy took a moment to think before she followed him. She knew what had to come next but was nervous about his reaction.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sam bit the inside of his lip, drawing blood, to avoid hitting something. He should have stopped himself. He should have known she would do this; she was taken. The problem was that with her kissing him like that he couldn't think straight.
Sam shook his head as he wondered how is the world he would work with her again after this. He heard her enter the kitchen but hoped she would just leave without talking to him. He didn't want to talk about Luke, how she was taken or how this had been a mistake. He couldn't bear to hear the word "mistake" come out of the mouth he was kissing just before.
Andy waited a moment at the entrance of the kitchen. When it become obvious he wasn't going to turn to her, she went to put a hand on his shoulder. She slowly put pressure on his shoulder, turning him to face her. She could feel his resistance but knew it was because he had misunderstood her actions.
"Sam, just talk to me, you won't regret it." She smiled but as he turned he adjusted his gaze to the floor and sighed. She began again hoping he would look up. "Sam, you know that it can't happen like this. Be honest, would this have been a one night thing if it had happened?"
Sam thought about lying the same way he had in the beginning when he had told her he wasn't his type. He shook his head and gave her what she wanted- honesty. "NO! Andy, there is no way I could have let this just be one night. I want more. I want everything with you. I want to wine and dine you. I want to make you FEEL as special as you are, for as long as I can. But what I want more then all that is for you to be happy. Andy if you are happy then don't let tonight screw that up."
She smiled and gently touched his face, forcing him to look up at her. "Sam I thought for a while that Luke would be the safer choice and I was right" This made Sam want to puke but he still kept listening "It is safer but only because I don't really care if we stay together. I know that if he would have left me it wouldn't hurt. I am not truly happy with him because I know that I could never be in love with him. I am happiest when I am with YOU!"
This made Sam grin, showing his dimples. He was still reeling from the rapid change of emotions he had just gone through so he simply kept smiling at her.
"I could never care about Luke as much as I care about you. That's why I have to go." Sam's eyes narrowed as she spoke. Andy grinned and moved closer to him, wrapping her arms around his neck.
She leaned in as if to kiss him but pulled back at the last second. "I don't want to screw THIS up," Andy gestured between them. "I want to be single so that we can do this right and give our relationship a REAL chance."
Andy ground her hips into his and he tried to lean forward to capture her lips but she ducked her head out of reach. "You know, I'll be a lot quicker if you let me borrow your truck. Then we can spend the rest of the night exploring what could have happened if the lights hadn't come back on."
Sam's dimples grew even deeper and he tried again to kiss her. This time she let him, but quickly pulled completely out of his grasp. "Don't get started. I need to go. Where do you keep your keys?" She smiled slyly before turning and walking down the hall.
The next chapter is when she talks to Luke. Thanks for reading!
