Disclaimer: Don't own Rookie Blue

A.N.: I know that this was supposed to be a one-shot but I just saw pictures for episode 11: To Serve or Protect. There's a picture with Andy leaning her head on Luke's shoulder.

This is a continuation of the last chapter and is NOT a Luke/Andy pairing.

Hope you enjoy.

Luke sighed. Since Andy had broken up with him, the two had become close in a different way. He found himself thinking of Andy as the sister he wished he had; a person to confide in. Once she knew about Zoe, she went out of her way to make sure he never lost himself and gave in to the depressing thoughts that sometimes threatened to overwhelm him.

The evidence on his desk pained him. It pointed a finger at Andy's father, showing that the man had committed a murder. If Luke had to wager a guess, if it actually was Tommy McNally, it was done during a drunken blackout (almost everyone had figured out after fite nite that Andy's father was drinking too much). He wondered how he was going to tell Andy.

At that moment, there was a knock on his door and Andy peeked in. "Luke" she asked softly "you okay?"

He looked at her. "Shut the door."

She was about to close the door when Sam poked his head in. "McNally, we need to head out."

"Sammy" Luke cut in "maybe you should be here too."

Sam looked intrigued and stepped into the office and then Andy closed the door. Luke spread the evidence over his desk and watched her face become paler and paler.

.

Luke glanced up at the sky. Andy and Sam had raced against time and had come up with the real results. Her father had been framed. Now, he waited for her outside of the station, waiting for her to exit.

Andy didn't see him until he fell into step with her and placed an arm around her shoulder, pulling her close. "You okay?" he asked softly.

She leaned her head on his arm. "I am now. Thank you for telling me privately and giving me the chance to prove his innocence."

Luke stopped and turned to her. "After everything you've done for me, this was the least I could do."

A.N. 3.5 hours til the next episode!
