After a few minutes, she found herself on a certain front door; Sam's front door. She raised her fist a couple of times, only to let it poised in the air. Internally battling with herself if it was a good idea after all, her brain was currently winning the battle over her heart but she wouldn't allow it to win. Not this time. Finally coming to her senses, she berated herself and strongly knocked on the door.
As soon as the door opened, she regretted doing it.
'Can I help you?' greeted a woman, quirking an eyebrow and intently staring at Andy.
She was shorter than Andy, with dark brown curly hair, gorgeous chocolate eyes and tiny legs, all of that wrapped up in only one black tee-shirt displaying the Toronto Police logo which looked way too familiar.
After the shock she received when the door opened, Andy was now experiencing a whole lot of other emotions. Hurt to begin with, disappointment, sadness, anger. All of those coming on her like a devastating wave, making her whole body to shake in response.
Her face was scolded, her mouth was agape, her eyes totally blank. So Andy did was she had a talent, a real talent for. She took a few steps back, descending the steps one by one backwards, her hand firmly gripping to the handrail. When she knew she had arrived at the bottom of the steps, she turned quickly on her heels and ran in the direction she had been coming from only a few seconds ago.

'Who was it?' Sam had just gone out of the bathroom when he heard the knock on the door. Knowing somebody else was in the apartment, he didn't bother taking care of it.
He quickly grabbed some sweat pants, a tee-shirt and a hoodie. Today was his first day back on the job after the suspension period. Saying he was excited was way below the reality. He was ecstatic mainly of course because that meant seeing Andy again.
He shot a look in the direction of the brunette, who was still holding the doorknob and wearing a dumbfounded look on her face.
Frowning slightly he asked again 'What happened?'
'Actually …' the brunette replied in an uncertain tone 'I don't know. That girl knocked on the door and when I opened, she gave me an once-over. She didn't say a word but she looked at me like I had grown 2 heads! Then, she just … bolted!' She shrugged and was about to pass Sam on her way to the kitchen when he grabbed her arm.
'What did she look like?' Sam's face has turned white when he heard the last words. His body stilled and tensed.
'Euh … She was wearing running gear, I'd say she had long brown hair and brown eyes and …' she paused.
Sam could see the woman was struggling with her memory trying to find some other information to give to him.
'Oh, and she had a sweater, just like this one' she was now pointing her finger towards Sam's chest.
If it was even possible, the color drained a bit more from Sam's face.
'Oh no, dear God …That woman is going to be the death of me' he said with his teeth greeted. Sam's behaviour was now totally erratic. His head was bouncing from one side to the other as he was frantically looking for his cell and his keys.
'What?' The woman was quite worried now. She had never saw Sam acting this weird. He was usually well collected. Of course, he'd lose its temper once in a while over the important matters, but this, this was different.
'Sam, talk to me'
'That hum… that girl …' he said pointing at the door, looking for his words.
'Yes?'
'That girl was Andy!' he blurted
'Ooooh! Well, why did she take off then?'
'Well, my guess?' Maybe because she found a woman half naked and wearing my t-shirt answering at my door!' his tone was harsh and anger was radiating from it. He knew he was being unfair but at the same time he couldn't help but to wonder what the universe's plan was by pulling a situation like this one on them. After what they had gone through enough that last month, hell, the last 2 years, he truly believed they were due to get the things easy, at least some of them!
'Sam, there was no way I could have known she would come over!' retorted the woman
'I know. I am sorry. I got to go and try to fix this!' Sam dropped a quick peck on her cheek and headed to the door.
He opened the door in a brisk movement, ready to run down his stairs and jump in his truck when he saw Andy standing there, staring back at him. Her eyes doing a pretty good job at conveying all the anger and animosity she currently felt towards him.
