A/N: Ok... so here is my apology to you all for not posting Friday and making you wait! Until Friday!
There was a soft knocking on Andy's door. She wrapped the towel closer around her body and went to answer it.
She was surprised to find Gail and Tracy on the other side.
"Hey, hey guys!" she stuttered, looking down the corridor and stepping back to let them in "What'ya doing here?"
"Came to see how your first day went." Tracy told her.
"And to get drunk" Gail said as she staggered a step towards the sofa, holding up a bottle of tequila.
"Guys, I'm beat. Can't we do this another time?"
Andy ran a second towel through her hair drying it.
"Nope! We are going to drink until you pass out."
"I have three busses to get in the morning."
"You need to get yourself a car." Tracy told her, handing her a shot glass.
"It's not too bad."
"Andy, you have just said that you need to take three busses to get there on a morning."
"I'll be back at 15 soon and then I won't need one."
Gail and Tracy looked at Andy and saw she was looking slightly nervous. She was shifting her weight from one foot to the other and her eyes were darting between them and the door.
"You expecting someone?" Tracy asked, arching her eyebrow sceptically.
"No."
"Bullshit!" Gail coughed before downing her shot.
"Alright. Sam said he might stop by, see how I did on my second first day."
There was another knock on Andy's door.
"Will one of you get that while I put some clothes on?"
Tracy saw Gail sway slightly and went to answer Andy's door.
"Hi Sam!" she said as she looked at his horrified face.
"What are you doing here?"
"Gail and I are here for the same reason you are. To see how Miss Andy's day went at 27."
"Fair enough. Are you going to let me in?"
"What? Oh yeah. Come on in. Andy's just putting some clothes on."
"You were getting naked?" Sam asked, a little puzzled.
"No. I'd just got out of the shower when these two got here."
"Rigggghhhht! With you now."
"We were actually discussing Andy's lack of car." Gail said as she dropped onto the sofa.
"I thought you would be smooth talking someone into obtaining the information we need?"
"Not tonight. Tonight I need Tequila!"
"I am not driving you to work tomorrow." Tracey warned her.
"So how was your day?" Sam asked Andy, picking up his phone and tapping the screen repeatedly.
"Well, they don't know I'm a Legacy, they think I am still a rookie and I spilled coffee all over my TO who keeps checking me out when he thinks I don't notice. I also saved his ass when some idiot sneaked up on him and put a gun to his head."
"He give you the lecture?" Tracy asked her
"Yeah. Oliver's was better."
"Sounds like you had a pretty boring day." Sam pointed out.
"Boring?" Gail scoffed.
"By the way our day usually pans out; mine was pretty boring in comparison." Andy told her.
"Ruin any undercover operations?"
"Very funny. I did arrest a man pretending to be a nun though."
"Pass the tequila!"
"Gail, you are not staying here tonight."
Gail poured herself another shot and handed the bottle to Andy, who passed it straight on to Tracy. Tracey poured herself and Andy a shot and handed the bottle to Sam. He put the bottle on the counter and went to get a glass and Andy's Scotch. Knowing it was likely to be a long night, he routed around in her freezer for some ice, his hand brushing a jar he had seen before.
"Guys, come on. I have an early morning."
"I'm sure Sam will take you to work tomorrow."
"No Sam won't take her to work tomorrow. I have somewhere to be in the morning." Sam argued, entering the room again.
"I'll take you! I want to hear about your day!"
"You've heard about it. It was quiet, boring even. I didn't even get shot at!"
"Then I want to drink!" Traci said, raising her glass and tossing the contents into her mouth.
"Guys come on. Can't we do this another day?"
"You got a hot date tonight?" Gail asked.
"No. I just want to chill out and have an early night."
Traci glanced at Sam, who was leaned at the bar and was being unusually quiet. She headed out of the door and straight to the kitchen.
Sam glanced at her as she passed and waited until she shut the door before looking to see Gail passed out on the sofa before moving swiftly over to Andy and placing his lips on hers.
"I better go." He whispered before heading to the door.
"I want you to stay. You know that right?"
"I know, but I don't think it's a good idea."
He kissed her again.
Tracy reached the kitchen and opened the freezer, looking for the jar with Sam's name in it. She smirked when she saw it had been removed and returned to the living room.
Andy was closing the door. Sam had clearly just left.
"Where'd he go?"
"Home?"
"What's going on with the two of you?"
"Nothing."
"Come on Andy, he looked pissed off and you've been trying to get rid of us all night. Not to mention he's no longer in your freezer"
"I. Am. Tired Trace and I just want to go to bed. and it got lost when I moved." Andy told her, trying to cover up the fact the jar was missing.
"That your story?"
"It's not a story. Breaking in a new TO is exhausting."
"Uh huh!"
"Please will you just get Gail and go?"
"Like I'm going to be able to haul her unconscious ass down two flights of stairs."
"Do what you want. I'm going to bed."
Andy padded down the hall to her room, swiping her phone from the side as she went.
She flipped it open and set the ring tone to vibrate. She reached her room and shut the door before flopping down on her bed. She opened the text message she had received.
'They aren't leaving any time soon. Text me when you're alone.'
Smiling, Andy pressed the reply icon.
'Not quite alone. They're still here, but I'm in my room. Wish you were here.'
Her phone buzzed in her hand.
'I wish I was there too. You ok?'
Andy smiled at Sam's overprotective nature.
'I'm fine. It's just been a long day.'
She dropped her phone on her chest and put her hands over her head until her phone buzzed again.
'Dinner tomorrow if you aren't so wiped?'
'Sounds good. After work?'
'I'll pick you up.'
'I finish at 6.'
'I'll be there. My bed's cold.'
'So is mine! I need to sleep. Night Sam!'
'Night Andy.'
Andy dropped her phone back on her chest and was asleep before she could climb under the covers.
