As she unlocked her apartment door, a rush of cold- yet familiar air hit her face. Tossing her keys on the table by the door, and dropping her bag, she heads straight for the shower.
It was pretty clear that Trace had kept up her apartment in her absence, the bathroom; spotless, fresh towels waiting for her return, all toiletries restocked and neatly placed in their appropriate spot. She let her clothes pile on the floor as she turned the shower nozzles, stepping in the shower herself, allowing the warm spray to hit her skin for a few moments before proceeding with her normal bathing routine.
"We finally have a chance to start over, not even start over but to start."
Sam flashes back to the last serious talk he and McNally had at her apartment. After she stormed out of the station he received a 'get it together man, she's the love of your life' look from Oliver, realizing Oliver was right he made his way to his truck with the destination of her apartment. Standing there at her doorway brought on unexpected emotions for the clam, cool and collected Sam Swarek.
At first it was;
Anger
She left him; he had no choice but to move on, right? How could she be mad at him? He begged for a second chance what more could he of done?
Then a dash of;
Guilt
If he had waited for her like he promise, then they could be together at this very moment, instead he stands at her front door racking his brain, and searching for the strength to knock at the door and go for round 2 of fighting with McNally, his McNally. Would the fighting be worth it? Who was he kidding of course it would be worth it.
Followed by the expected;
Stupidity
After seeing Andy's reaction to the kiss he knew, right in the kitchen of 15 Division that Marlo Cruz meant nothing to him. Sure, she was great, things were light, easy and not complicated but she was no Andy McNally. She wasn't the one who tackled him to the ground and tried to kiss him 3 years ago. The girl who with the help of Collins helped take down a meth ring. And constantly asked to drive his truck, knowing full-well that vehicle was his baby. She challenged him, she was Andy McNally for crying out loud, she was worth all the fight he had in him.
And lastly;
Strength
As Sam stood going through the memories and emotions of his relationship with Andy, like a digging through a box of old photos. He lifted his arm up, made a fist and slowly knocked on Andy McNally's door.
Placing his arm back down at his side, all that was left to do was wait; again
