Prompt: Andy/Nick/Sam, it's complicated (from petragem)


"It's complicated."

That's what she told her therapist when asked who she wanted to be with.

Talk about understatement of the year.

And you know what she did? This therapist responded with a "no shit Sherlock."

(Okay, maybe not so much with her words, but her eyes were extremely expressive and Andy can read facial cues.)

In reality, her therapist followed up that question with another one.

Who can't she live without?

To be absolutely honest, Andy had no fucking clue. She even did the chick flick thing and made a pros and cons list to help her decide which guy was the right guy for her. Well, that was a bust when both lists came out to a deadlock. But also, how the hell was she supposed to quantify the way Sam makes her feel like the only person in the world when he stares into her eyes. Or the way Nick can make her laugh like nobody ever has, making her lighter than she's ever felt. How the hell is she supposed to choose between them when she knows that either one would make her happier beyond belief? It's actually baffling to her how on paper, these two completely different men are both perfect for her.

Should she choose Nick? The guy she is currently dating, and ended up losing a friendship over? (That was actually number one on her con list.)

Or Sam? The first guy she's ever let take the lead, and ended up breaking her heart? (That was tied for first.)

The only thing Andy knows for sure is that she loves them both, and they both love her.

Complicated indeed.


I know I've been gone for a while, but I hope this new season helps jumpstart the muse even more. (The ficathon going on at omg-rookieblue is helping like whoooa.)
