Chapter 3: Everything changes in a blink of an eye
She had just come out of the bathroom wiping a wet paper towel over mouth when Traci walked in. Traci noticed that Andy didn't look to good, "Hey you ok?"
"Well no I am not Traci, I just threw up. Something must be going around."
"Should you go home?"
"No, I'll feel better once I have some Ginger Ale and suck on a sucker. Do you have any?"
"Yeah here. This should be better. You sure you gonna be alright?"
"Oh lord I am fine Traci. If someone else asks me how I'm doing I swear I'm going to punch them. Ugggh. Lets just go, we're going to be late."
Traci just remained quiet and followed her out when Sam came out at the same time and she knew he was about to ask Andy how she was doing but Traci grabbed his arm, "Sam I don't think it's a good idea to ask her how she's doing. She just threw up then bit my head off because I thought she should go home and rest. Please if you value your life then don't ask her any questions; she threatened to punch out anyone else who asked her that."
"Yeah I'll be careful."
They all went to their usual seats and Andy turned around and gave him a smile; he smiled back and thought, 'That's weird. Traci said she's in a mood but she seems fine to me.' Best entered the room and Andy stopped him, "Hey can I be on desk duty today?"
"Not feeling well McNally."
"No, I threw up in the locker room and I just don't want to get the car messed up plus I don't feel like chasing after stupid people who try to make a break from us."
"Well alright just for today." She thanked him and he went up to the front. "Alright coppers lets get down to business, McNally and Epstein, you've got desk duty; Swarek and Noelle are on patrol…" as he was finishing listing off the duties for the day, Sam was wondering why Andy was the desk for today so as soon as they were dismissed he went over to where she was getting up, "So Andy why did you want to be put on the desk today?"
"Oh I wasn't feeling well. I threw up earlier and I didn't want to mess up the car just in case it happened again. I hope this day goes by fast because I'm paired with Dov and he's worst than a girl. Can't keep his mouth shut to save his life."
He just laughed, "It'll be ok—ow! What was that for?"
She had punched him in the arm, "That's for laughing at me…" she suddenly stopped in midsentence and ran out with her hand over her mouth to the bathroom. He took off after her and followed her in. As she was bent down he was rubbing her back soothingly then he got a couple of paper towels and ran them under cool water then he gently began rubbing over her face and the back of her neck. When she was done there was no color in her lips and she looked pretty tired; he was getting worried, "Are you sure you don't want to go home?"
"No I think I do need to go home and get some sleep."
"Okay let me go and tell Best; you stay here, get changed and I'll take you home before I go on patrol."
"Thanks hun."
As soon as they got home, she didn't even feel like changing out of her clothes so she just got into bed, "I love you babe. Call you later." "I love you too." Before he could say anything else she was already fast asleep and he just smiled because for some reason she looked even more beautiful today and he couldn't figure out why.
A few hours later she woke up and looked at the clock; it was 1:00 pm, 'damn is that the time. I guess I was more tired than I thought.' After going to the bathroom and brushing her teeth she looked in the mirror and was glad that the color had come back to her lips. Looking around she decided she was going to clean up around his place so she turned on some music and began cleaning. It went by pretty fast and the next thing she knew it was 3:30 and her phone was going off.
"Hey babe, feeling any better?"
"Yeah I actually am feeling pretty good; don't know what was wrong this morning…"
"I hear music playing, what are you doing?"
"Oh I just felt like cleaning up."
"You're cleaning up my apartment?"
"Well yeah there was dust everywhere Sam and I couldn't stand it. And besides I basically live here so it's our apartment."
"Well alright, just don't break anything; I'll see you for dinner tonight; how does pizza sound?"
"Sounds wonderful can't wait. Later."
After hanging up she put the phone in her pocket for easy access and continued on with cleaning then she heard something at the door; she started to go and see what it was but her gut was telling her not to. All of the sudden there was a crash and the front door came flying off the hinges and there was a masked robber that was coming in and then he saw her standing at the bedroom door; he lunged at her but he didn't know she was a cop. There was a struggle and just as she thought she had the upper hand she felt something sharp go into her side and she looked down and he was holding a knife. She fell backwards and just went around and took some things then just left. She found it hard to breath and she knew he punctured her lung so she slowly got out her cell and called 911.
"911, what's your emergency?"
"Officer down…this is Officer Andrea McNally from the 15th, I was home…*cough* robber came in, there was a fight, and he stabbed me then left with the stolen goods…*cough* I think I have a collapsed lung. It's hard for me to breath. Get EMS here now."
"Okay Officer, what's your address?' no response 'Officer McNally, can you hear me? Hey I need a trace on this cell. She's not responding; I think she passed out."
"Dispatch there's been a robbery at 2304 Todd street, apt B. officer down, she was stabbed" When Sam heard this, he freaked and grabbed the radio, "1505 is on the way. How is she?"
"I think she passed out, she said that he must have punctured her lung because it was hard for to breath."
"Ok thank dispatch."
Sam turned on the lights and raced to his apartment, tears were in his eyes. When they got there, there was an ambulance and police everywhere. He ran over and saw her being worked on by the EMTs. "Get me the paddles, she's going to flat line, charge to 150, clear. Ok good we've got a heart beat. Yes can I help you?"
"I'm Officer Sam Swarek and this is my girlfriend. How is she?"
"Not so good, she just flat lined but we got her back and now we have to get her to hospital."
"Well I'm coming." The emt knew not to argue with him if he valued his life and the next thing was that they were speeding towards the hospital. The whole way there Sam held her hand and whispered words of comfort to her which seemed to help, she stayed stable. They rushed her into surgery and finally he broke down. He slide down the wall and put his head in his hands and just sobbed so hard he was shaking. Traci came running in and saw Sam, "Oh no…" she thought as she ran towards him, "Sam what happened, is she still alive?"
"Yeah they took her into surgery a few minutes ago. I can't loose her…I don't know what I'll do if she's not here with me." He started crying again and she knelt down and embraced him in hug. An hour later the doctor came out and looked around and saw nothing but cops from the 15th just waiting. "Sam Swarek?"
"Yeah that's me. How is she?"
"She's a fighter, the surgery went well, thankfully the knife didn't go in too deep or else she would've been dead on the spot…." He paused
"What else doc, spit it out."
"We found something else…"
"Well…come on, out with it"
"Look I don't think she even knew but she's pregnant."
"She's what…pregnant? Well is the baby alright?"
"Yes the baby's fine. She's about a week along, have you noticed anything different about her?"
"Yeah she started throwing up this morning and her friend Traci said that she snapped at her then I took her home and she was asleep before I even left. Then I called her and she was feeling better but she was cleaning everything. Why?"
"Oh well that's good to know, sometimes women don't even get symptoms. She's in recovery then she'll be moved into a private room. I'll let you tell her the good news."
"Ok thanks doctor for everything." He had this huge dimpled grin on his face and everyone came up and congratulated him.
30 minutes later they were allowed to go and see her but they all hung back and let Sam go in there first.
He slowly opened the door and saw her laying the bed with an IV on her arm, "Hey sweety…"
"Hey, can you believe this?"
"Don't worry I'll catch him and make sure he wishes he was never born. Andy there's something I need to tell you. The doctor found something else…"
"Is it bad?"
"No, Andy honey you're going to have a baby."
Her mouth dropped opened, she never expected to hear those words but now it all made sense then a smile crept across her face, "Wow, I can't believe it. We're going to have a little McSwarek running around."
Then he motioned for everyone else to come in and they all congratulated them. They stayed there for a little while then it was time to get going, everyone else still had work tomorrow but Sam stayed the entire night and they talked about names.
AN: well that's it for this chapter; I hope that everyone loves it. Please review
