She was sitting at her kitchen island going through her mail from the last three months while having a glass of wine.
She'd had a hard day.
It had started with Sam picking her up from the airport to Sam telling her 'All you wanted was to be a cop and all I wanted is you.' And walking away from her.
Of course there was other stuff in today's events too, but those were the ones that she can't get off her mind. Today went differently from what she thought would happen when she saw Sam again.
But she can see where he was coming from; only he hasn't heard her out for why she left.
She was brought out of her thoughts by a knock on her door. She hoped that it was Sam but its not. It's Oliver.
"Hey Oliver," she says as she opens the door.
"McNally," He says holding the Oar she brought back and her bag.
"Come in," She said opening the door wider for him to bring the stuff in.
"Sam thought you might need this." He said leaning the oar and her bag against the wall.
"So he had you bring them over?" She said raising an eyebrow.
"Yeah uh he has something to do." He said making up a story.
"Something to do? Okay." She said walking over to her kitchen. "Do you want a beer?"
"Sure," He said sitting down in her chair. "So how was your trip?"
"It was okay. I did a lot of fun stuff but it was lonely." She told him handing him a beer.
"Yeah well you didn't have to leave. Or go alone." He told her taking a long sip of his beer.
"I had too. If I didn't we would both have lost our jobs. I was fine losing mine as long as Sam kept his."
"Have you told him that?" She shook her head 'no'. "Why not?"
"He wouldn't listen to me. You've known him longer than I have. He's stubborn."
"You have to make him listen. He's been different since you left. He misses you. So you have to make him listen."
"I will do my best. I don't want to lose him."
"And I will help. You two belong together."
…
A hour later Oliver left after the caught up on everything that has happened at 15 in the last three months.
Andy: Thanks for having Oliver bring my stuff over.
Sam: No problem
Andy: Can we talk?
Sam: About?
Andy: US
Sam: Nothing to talk about.
She couldn't believe what she had just read. Did he really mean that? It didn't matter. She was going to show him she would rather be with him than anything. No matter what it took...
