A/N: OK you lovely people! This is a few days early because I am going on Holiday and won't be able to post otherwise this week! :D
See you all next Friday!
Sam paid the taxi and climbed out of the cab after Andy. They had both drunk a little more than either of them had intended on drinking and had agreed that they would call for a taxi and Sam would pick the truck up on the way to work in the morning.
He caught up with Andy and snaked his arm around her waist. She immediately dropped her head to his shoulder and wrapped her own arm around him as they walked to the front door. She rummaged around in the small bag for her keys and let them in. Sam breezed past her, took her hand and pulled her towards him where she fell into his embrace. He placed his hands either side of her face and kissed her as passionately as he could, only letting her go when she pushed away, gasping for air.
He took her hand again and they walked side by side up the stairs to Andy's apartment. The tension got tighter with every step they took and before they reached the top of the stairs, they were both panting with desire from the 'accidental' touching.
Andy let them into the apartment and after one quick glance to check it was empty Andy pulled Sam to her and dropped his jacket to the floor before gripping the hem of his shirt and flinging it off, over his head and tossing it aside.
"One of us is still wearing far too many clothes." Sam growled, following Andy to her bedroom. He pushed the door to and reached for Andy. She allowed him to pull her closer to him and kiss the pulse point in her neck while he removed her jacket from her shoulders. Once he held the soft leather in his hands he tossed it onto the chaise and ran his hands up Andy's bare thighs.
"Why do you always have such cold hands?" she asked jumping at the contact, while Sam chuckled into her neck.
He ran his hands under the hem off the dress and slowly, kissing Andy's bare skin as he went, pulled it over her head and added it to the jacket.
"Now who's wearing too many clothes?" Andy asked as Sam picked her up and carried her to the bed.
"We are going to get into so much trouble for this!" Gail hissed as Traci picked the lock to the door.
"We will if we are caught, so shut the hell up!"
"If I can't go to New York because I am in a jail cell I will kill you!"
Traci straightened up and spun to look at Gail.
"Gail, there are no lights on so she's either asleep or out so if we're quiet no one will know we were here. Don't you want to find out for certain?"
"I guess, but if we get caught it was all your idea and I'm only here to try and talk you out of it."
"Whatever" Traci muttered as the lock clicked open.
They padded their way to the stairs and crept up them. After all they weren't supposed to be there in the middle of the night unless they were invited, which they weren't.
They reached the next door and Traci slipped the lock pickers into the lock while Gail watched out for the neighbours.
The lock clicked and the door swung into the apartment silently. Traci looked at Gail and placed her finger to her mouth, indicating that from there they were to make absolutely zero noise.
They took their shoes off in the doorway, knowing that the floor was wood and their soles would make a noise. Gail went one way around the room towards the kitchen, looking for clues as to why Andy was less sociable than she usually was and picked Sams shirt off the top of the lamp where Andy had thrown it, while Traci headed the other way towards the bedroom door.
She could see a very soft light emitting from the bedroom and crept closer to look through the gap Sam had left.
She could hear the low grumble of a man talking and see two shadows against the wall. She shifted her position and could see Andy, head on a mans shoulder, tangled in the covers and her hair a mess. She watched as Andy lifted her head to kiss the man and covered her mouth in shock as she saw Sam bend down to kiss her.
She had stepped back and could only see the shadows of Andy and Sam. She saw Andy deepen the kiss before pushing herself up Sam's body and swing her leg up and over his lap before kissing him again.
Looking around for Gail, Traci backed as quick as she could to where Gail was quietly rummaging in a drawer.
She carefully navigated her way around the furniture in the living room and tapped Gail on the arm.
"We have to go." She mouthed, nodding at the door.
Gail looked at her horrified that Andy was in the apartment while they were snooping on her. She carefully closed the drawer and followed Traci. She made it halfway across the room to the front door when she stubbed her toe on the corner of the sofa, crashing into a lamp that was on the table next to it.
Traci looked between the bedroom where Sam and Andy were springing into action over the crashing noise and cry Gail had made as she fell and Gail who was still on the floor, trying and failing to get up. Traci rushed over to Gail and grabbed her arm as Sam burst out of the bedroom with his gun drawn. By the light of the bedroom, he could see the two figures on the floor.
"Don't move or I will shoot." he called out to the pair, as Andy made her way to the nearest light switch, her gun also drawn.
She flicked on the light and dropped her gun on the floor when she saw Gail and Traci.
"WHAT THE HELL? YOU TWO BETTER START EXPLAINING!" she shouted as Sam lowered his gun.
Traci and Gail looked at each other, before taking in Andy wearing her bathrobe and Sam dressed in just his jeans.
"We need to start explaining?" Traci asked, looking from one to the other.
"I think this is pretty self explanatory." Sam told her in an even voice.
"What isn't is why you two are in my living room at two am!" Andy said.
"We were, well, Sam, please can you put a shirt on?" Traci started to explain, but couldn't form her thoughts knowing what Andy and Sam were about to do and seeing his half naked body in front of her to remind her. Gail picked it off the floor where it had landed when she knocked the lamp over, shook it free from shards and tossed it to Sam who put it on and walked into the kitchen and poured himself a glass of water.
"I'm still waiting!" Traci sank into the sofa and Gail sat next to her.
"Well, we were all talking and we sort of figured that your excuse for not coming out tonight was a lame one and that you must be hiding something. Dov thought you were on drugs." Gail explained.
"Exactly. We figured it was a guy and you weren't telling us about it because seeing him was breaking some sort or rule and we knew asking you about it was pointless, so..."
"So you decide to break into my place?"
"That was all my idea. Gail tried to stop me. I knew there would be something here that would tell us what you're hiding. I did not expect to find Sam in your bedroom."
Andy looked between her friends and she could feel the heat in her eyes threatening tears.
"I can't believe you guys!"
"Andy?" Traci said as she made to get off the sofa.
"Don't, just don't. I don't care if you stay here, but I want you both gone by the time we get up."
She shook her head and went back to her bedroom, slamming the door shut as she did so.
"I think that went very well, don't you think Sam?" Gail asked, looking over her shoulder at Sam who was perched on a barstool at the island.
"Kiss my ass Casper, now if you don't mind I am going to go back to bed. Can I trust you to lock the door you picked on your way out?"
