The shift ended up with no leads on the guy homicide was looking for. Andy was ready to peel off her uniform and go down to the Penny. For the first time in a while Andy was starting to feel okay. Andy didn't even make it half way through the bullpen before Luke called her into his office. She didn't really want to talk to him after the confrontation that happened yesterday, and now that things were okay with Sam again. Better than okay with Sam again.

"Didn't get any solid tips?" He said as she walked into his office.

"No, nothing."

"Andy about yesterday about what's going on between us."

"Luke, there is nothing going on between us. What happened yesterday I'd like to try and forget about it." Well not all of it. Andy thought to herself.

"Well I think we need to talk about it, Andy if you thought I never cared about how you felt. I want you to know that – I did care. I do care. I care a lot Andy."

The door to Luke's office was open and before responding she looked out of it and there was Sam looking at her with a confused look. She wanted to go out and talk to him. But she knew that if she left Luke's office he'd just follow her and they'd get into a middle of a confrontation. If they got into a confrontation Andy might never get to work the streets again. She couldn't risk that.

"Andy, please say something." Luke said snapping Andy out of her thoughts.

"Luke we are done we're over I thought I made what I want clear to you. I just – I can't be second fiddle to the job. To your job. I know you don't want to admit it and that's fine but you always chose the job over me."

"What about what happened yesterday you saying that you couldn't be sure if I was the one who said that you were seeing the department's shrink or not. You really don't think I'd go around telling everyone that right?"

Andy took a deep breath in, what the hell was Luke thinking bringing all this up at work of all places.

"I don't know Luke. But I do know one thing."

"What's that?"

"It wasn't Sam, he wouldn't do that to me."

"What's going on between you and Swarek you never did tell me what happened that night. The night you said nothing happened. Swarek told me that he tried something and you turned him down."

Andy took a step back not sure of what to think of that. She just wanted this awkward conversation to be over.

"Wait a minute, you're telling me you didn't believe me. The person who you were supposed to love but Sam comes to you tells you nothing happened. The same thing I said and you believed him but not me. Real nice Luke."

Luke scoffed at what Andy said. "Listen Andy that's not important, I've been thinking about our break-up and I was thinking maybe it was a bit premature. I mean we were moving fast. We could put a hold on you moving in but we could get back on track. What do you think?"

"No." Andy replied more sure of that one single word than she had been of anything in her whole life.

Luke looked surprised which just made Andy angry. What did he expect for him to flash his charming dopey smile and she would be like putty in his hands?

"What?" he finally managed to say.

"Luke what did you expect I mean honestly, after that little show you put on with Sam yesterday. I mean up until then I thought you were fine with our break up. We left things on good terms, I thought you understood." With every single word she muttered Andy's tone became harsher and louder. "I thought you understood where I stood. When I said you were a good guy I meant that Luke, but this little act you have going on right now. It isn't you Luke, and it doesn't look very good on you."

"Well don't spare my feelings."

Andy rolled her eyes at him, "Luke I don't regret being with you. I really don't but we were never meant to last. You have all these plans Luke. All these really great plans I am just not the girl who is going to share them with you Luke."

"But you could be." Luke replied in a desperate tone.

"No," Andy shook her head for a moment. "No I can't be the girl that you share that house with. I can't be the girl who you share those plans with. I care about you Luke." She watched as a little bit of hope spread on his face, she felt bad as she watched it crush with her next three words. Which she said like each word was its own sentence. "Like. A. Friend."

Luke nodded his head. "So I guess it really is all over."

Andy shrugged her shoulders. "We can be friends, but, nothing more. Like I said before you are going to make some girl really really happy Luke. I'm just not that girl."

"Fine, but will you be honest with me Andy? If I ask you this question I need you to be honest with me."

Andy reluctantly nodded.

"What really happened with you and Swarek on that mysterious night in question?"

"Does it really matter?"

"Andy please."

Andy took a deep breath and started to walk out of Luke's office. He began to follow her all the way out into the bullpen.

"Andy wait."

They immediately attracted the attention of the other officers who were working in the room. Including Sam, who had changed and had been talking to another officer.

"Luke please stop it, it doesn't matter. Just let it go." Andy said softly so only he could hear. "I really want to go and get changed can you just let this go? It's over Luke, accept it and move on."

"Fine Andy if that's how you want to play it. Fine whatever." Luke threw his hands in the air turned around and stormed back to his office.

Andy felt embarrassed; her cheeks got warm and flushed red. Her eyes began to fill with tears. She walked through the rest of the bullpen to the hallway. She just wanted to get to the locker room. Sam had followed her but she didn't even realize it. She slammed the door to the locker room open. Thankfully it was empty. Andy took a deep breath in trying to suppress her tears. She knew that this would get back to Frank. I mean how could it not? She didn't expect anything different. Thanks to Luke, she was going to continue to be the topic of more water cooler discussion.

"Andy, talk to me what happened back there?" Sam's soft voice boomed behind her.

She turned around, walked over to him and hugged him wrapping her arms around his waist. She felt his arms wrap around her. She just let the tears fall from her eyes and soak into his shirt.

"Andy are you gonna be okay?"

Andy let out a soft sob and shook her head. "I don't know. I just wish I could crawl under a rock and never come out. Everyone in the division is going to know about that little outburst with Luke by the morning. Between that and everyone already talking about me going to see the shrink I'll never not be the topic of the divisions' gossip again."

"Andy no one is talking about you behind your back." Sam said to her reassuringly.

"Yeah right." Andy said through her tears. "Everyone is talking about me how else would Luke have known about the shrink if someone hadn't seen me leave her office and started gossiping about it. Maybe Detective Bibby was right. Maybe I'm just some hot shot rookie with a train wreck for an old man, nothing but a tube of lipstick and a badge."

"Stop, don't ever say that again." Sam said to her moving his hand to her face and lifting her head to make her look at him. "Don't you ever say that again. Derek Bibby is an asshole, and Callaghan he's no better. You are an amazing cop Andy, and you're more than that. You are an amazing person, anyone who doesn't see that Andy, anyone who takes advantage of your good nature is an idiot. An oblivious idiot."

A smile brightened Andy's face. "See, that's why I love you. You always have my back and you say just the right thing." Andy reached up and gave Sam a soft kiss on the lips.

"And that McNally is why I love you." Sam said to her after they pulled away from the kiss.

"So Andy McNally how would you like it if I take you home?"

"I'd like that a lot."
