I do not own rookie blue
Charlie xxx
He had had the day from hell. He had come to work in a foul mood due to yesterday's incident with Andy. He felt bad for the way he shouted at her but he felt like an idiot for letting himself fall into such a stupid cliché. If Tommy found out he knew his life would be over and his job would be hell. He didn't really like the idea of being known as the rookie that screwed around with his training officer's daughter. He pleaded that Andy would just keep her mouth shut. It wasn't that he didn't like her, he thinks he does, a lot, he likes the fact that someone needs him, and finds his help use full. But after last night he just isn't sure anymore.
It was because of this pointless thinking that he was so distracted that day, whilst riding with Jerry they were called to a domestic. He was mindlessly walking through the kitchen when a rolling pin connected with his temple. The woman apologised profusely claiming she thought it was her husband trying to hurt her again. No charges were pressed but that didn't change the fact Sam now had a black and blue face and a pounding headache. He really could do without having to go back to the McNally house hold. As he pulled out of the drive he noticed that the house was mainly dark he could only see the flicker of the TV. He walked in, expecting to see Andy on the couch he was surprised when he saw the sofa only occupied by pillows, he dumped his bag in the porch and headed over to the open back door. Andy was sitting out on the decking, cigarette in hand looking up at the sky.
"That's bad for you, you know"
"So is sleeping with Jerks, but that's never stopped me before" Sam pinched the bridge of his nose.
"Andy, look, I'm sorry"
"Stop, Just stop, you made you view perfectly clear last night. I will stay out your way. Dads back in two days. Then everything will go back to normal. And don't worry, I won't dob you in to my dad, I'm not that much of a bitch" She looked up to meet his eyes for the first time as she flicked her fag onto the grass.
She walked inside Sam followed, she went over to the freezer pulled out an ice pack and wrapped it in a tea towel before handing it to him, avoiding eye contact.
"It's mainly for sports pains, but it might help" and with that she walked up stairs. He had got her all wrong. She wasn't out to use him to get what she wants, she generally cares for people. That was made clear; she despised him at this point in time but still gave him an ice pack. He was starting to feel really bad. With a defeated look on his face Sam walked back over to the sofa, beer in hand. Putting both feet up on the coffee table he reflected on the night before. Being with And was amazing, she may have been young but she was experienced, he wasn't sure if that was a good or a bad thing, but when it was happening, he enjoyed every second of it. How could he apologise for what he did? It make him look like every other idiot she has ever been with. He needed to apologise but he also knew Andy would probably not listen. He sat and questioned all the ways he could get Andy to talk to him without sounding like a desperate school boy.
The whole night past and Still Sam had not apologised, wondering if maybe it was easier if they did just avoid each other for the next two days and forget about it. He gave in and when to bed. The past couple of days had been far to challenging for Sam. As he went to his room he stopped outside Andy's hearing her on the phone to somebody. He pressed his ear against the door to listen.
"I just can't believe that I let myself do something so stupid, like some established good looking decent guy would ever actually generally want to be with me. I was just a something to have a go on whilst he was here"
He bowed his head in shame, he felt so bad that he could make someone feel like that, especially a vulnerable girl. He waited for Andy to respond to whoever she was taking to.
"If I really was an amazing person, why do i attract jerks? Jacks been texting me all day, telling me i was out of order the other night! Can you believe that! I mean seriously, i had basically passed out and he still was trying it on with me" Sam felt slightly sick, "And then i come home to officer arshole who i don't even know where to begin. Maybe I'm just being one of sad loser girls who falls for the guy there not meant to, but i thought we might off had something, Clearly I'm just a stupid little girl"
He stepped away from the door and quickly passed to his room. He was riddled with guilt, he was so ashamed of himself. Such a beautiful girl who really just a since of security, and he completely ruined her trust. He felt like an ars.
The two days passed quickly, Sam would go to work, come home, eat in front of the TV and go to bed, he would check on Andy, she didn't really do or say much, Gail had come to see her briefly one night to check on her and he had offered her dinner both nights but she politely rejected his offer, claiming that she would cook herself something later. He never saw her in the kitchen though, he hoped she had come down when he was in bed.
Tommy's presence at the front door that afternoon caused guilt and relif to wash over his body. He didn't know if he was Happy to be going home, or sad that he had turned his daughter into a depressed wreck. Either way Tommy embarrassed him thanking him for staying.
"You look well Sir" he told him whilst looking him up and down
"I feel it son, now, where's my baby, was she Andy trouble, I know she can be a handful sometimes" and as if my magic, footsteps were herd on the stairs and a easeful Andy ran towards her dad lifting both feet of the ground and clinging onto him like monkey on a tree.
"it so good to have you home daddy"
"Good to be home baby" Their words were both murmured into each other's ears, enjoying the time in each other's arms, Sam looked at the ground feeling slightly awkward. "I was just asking Sammy here if you have behaved" it was Andy who looked down now.
"She was fine, didn't know she was here half the time. You have a lovely daughter sir" Andy snorted at his remarked, picking up her bags bag and taking it upstairs.
"Is she ok?" Tommy looked worried
"I think so, maybe boy troubles. You know how girls can be!"
The men switched places and Sam picked up his own bag and re opened the door,
"Thank you so much again Sam, I can't thank you enough for staying her whilst i was gone. It was a great ease on my mind knowing that my daughter was here safe with you"
"It was no problem sir, I'll see you when your back at work" They shock hands and Sam wondered out to his car." Once he had thrown his bag in the boot he pulled out his phone and text Andy.
"I'm sorry Andy. If you ever need anything, please call, my address is 34 sick more street, if you need me ill be there, work or the penny. Stay out of trouble."
He sent the text, not expecting a reply and drove off towards his house. He was on edge, this was the first time Andy would be with her Dad alone, what if she chose to tell him. His worry was made worse when his phone rang and the caller iD was Tommy.
"Sir?" Sam would be lying if he said he wasn't scared right now.
"Sammy, you left a white shirt here. Andy washed it, she said it got dirty somehow, just wanted to let you know to remind me to give it to you!"
"Ah great thanks sir"
"No problem, cya" and with that Tommy hung up. His mind flashed back to Andy in his shirt, it was far to short and far to reviling but he had to admit she wore it well, she looked beautiful. And he had ruined that. It was clear to him that Andy was never going to talk to him and he had to accept that. Now Sam was feeling like A stroppy child who wasn't allowed to have what he wanted. How ironic.
