This Chapter is Rated T, this chapter for some reason was hard to do. Not so sure I like it.

I do not own Rookie Blue, but if I did…..

"You are stuck with me, I am not going anywhere and I am going to fight tooth and nail until my last breath. "

Andy frowned.

"I know I said it before but I now know what life is like without you and I will not live without you. " Sam took her face in his hands and made her look at him. "You do believe me, right Andy?"

Andy closed her eyes letting everything sink in.

Sam quietly whispered, "Andy?"

Andy opened her eyes and leaned into Sam, burying her face into his shirt. Sam wrapped his arms around her and held her tight. Sam heard a muffled, "I believe you Sam," from Andy. Andy looked up at Sam and wound her hands around his neck, kissing his cheek and murmured into his ear "I believe you Sam".

Sam kissed her forehead and held her close. They sat for what seemed like forever to Sam. He noticed she had fallen asleep again, he clutched Andy close and picked her up off the floor. Sam gently laid her on the bed, tucked her in and went around the other side to lay down with her. Even in her sleep, Andy found him and cuddle up to him right away. Sam glanced at the clock it was 5:30, he had to be up and 7 to be at work by 8. It was going to be a long day.


Andy woke up to sunshine streaming into her room. She looked around noticing Sam was gone and that the house seemed very quiet. Andy sat up and padded her way into the living room. She noticed that Sarah was sitting at the table, reading the paper and drinking coffee.

"Andy, glad you are awake, want some coffee? Hungry?"

Andy looked at the clock it was 10:30, she had slept in. "When did Sam leave?"

"He had to be at work by 8 so he could be home in time for dinner. He wanted to have a special dinner with you going back to work tomorrow, plus I am head back home tomorrow to. "

"Sarah I really appreciate you coming out here to help me, someone you had never met. Everything you did has been a huge help. "

"I will do anything for the love of my brother's life." Sarah smiled big, "He talked about you all the time and now I finally got to meet the one that changed my brother's life for the good. Plus a gained a great friend."

"Thank you so much Sarah."

"Now lets get some food into and coffee."


Sam came home to giggling in the living room. His sister and Andy were looking through pictures and regaling each other with stories. Sam stood amused at he put is stuff down at the door.

"Hey little brother, dinner is almost ready. How was your day?"

"Eventful", Sam walked over and sat next to Andy on the sofa. Andy leaned into him and kissed his cheek. Sarah smiled, "I am going to pull the food out and start setting the table, you two relax."

"Did you get to sleep in today?"

"Yeah, all the way to 10:30 and its been a good day. I am ready to go back to work, even though it is desk duty. I am really going to miss your sister. She has been great to talk to, she understands so much."

"I am glad. Coming back from a UC is tough, even when the UC is an easy one."

Sarah walked in, "You have my phone number, you can always call me and the door is always open, with or without my brother."

Andy smiled, "Thanks Sarah."

Sam stuck out his tongue at his sister. Sarah smiled, "Dinner is served guys."

Everyone sat around the table, the food was good and the stories were funny. Sam cleaned up and they all moved to the living room.

Sam sat down next to Andy as Sarah sat in the easy chair next to the sofa. "Andy I know you go back to work tomorrow but with Sarah going home, do you want to have the house to yourself now or do you want to easy into not having someone here with you?"

"Can we play it by ear, I want to see how the first day goes. I may find that I am not good company after the first day or two, but I don't know."

"So we play it by ear then. It's getting late and we are getting up early in the morning to see Sarah off and get to work. " Sam squeezed her hand and smiled at her. "I want you to have a smooth night tonight, ok." All went about their night routine and hit the shack.

The night went by with out any nightmares.


In the morning, Andy grabbed her snacks and coffee, handed Sam a cup of coffee and gave Sarah a big hug. With hugs and kisses given out, Sarah headed home, Andy and Sam headed into work.

Parade went smooth with big welcome back for Andy. Traci and Sam had a case come up and headed out the door right after parade finished. "Andy I will be back to take you home ok?" Nick walked up behind Andy and grabbed her into a big bear hug, "If you get tied up in a case, I will make sure to get her home." Nick smiled at Sam and then at Andy.

"Thanks Nick but I will make sure to get back to take her home from her first day back at work." All Sam could think was, in your dreams buddy but he knew, Nick was just trying to be a good friend but dang, he need to go away for a while.

Andy smiled at both of them, "Ok, guys go catch the bad guys, I am going to hold up the front desk. " She wander off to the desk, Nick headed out with Oliver, while Traci and Sam followed.

The first four days on desk was uneventful. Andy was easing into be back on duty and starting to find her groove. She and Sam were spending the evenings together, talking and eating. Things were running smooth.

But it was on the fifth day that a hitch happened in the whole easing back into duty.

Officers were coming in for lunch; Gail and Nick had brought Andy a deli sandwich and were sitting with her eating. Sam and Traci were in the D's office with Oliver working a case. Noelle was lunching with Frank in his office. Dov, Chris and Marlo were out on a case but had called saying they were coming in for lunch.

Andy and Gail had their back to the desk and the only clue something was wrong was Nick's face as he shot up to grab Andy. Before Nick could grab her or Gail to react, Luke had made it through the door and had grabbed Andy by her arm yanking her out of the chair.

Gail stood up knocking over her chair; Nick almost flew over the table. Luke proceed to yank Andy down the hall as she started hitting Luke to get him to let go. Andy started to scream at him, "Let me go."

Nick was hot on their heals with Gail trailing behind him, Gail caught a look from Traci yelled, "Luke is dragging Andy away."

Sam, Oliver and Traci bolted out of the D's office. By the time they got down the hall, Andy had Luke pinned on the floor with her knee into the side of his head. Nick was handcuffing him. Sam bellowed, "What happened.?" Luke was screaming at her but no one could understand him because Andy kept pressing harder and harder on his head.

Frank and Noelle hearing the ruckus came down the hallway. Frank ran and stood next to Sam who was chuckling, "Ok, who is going to tell me what is going on and what is Luke doing here. Luke your suspended. "

Nick looked up, "Luke walked in here, grabbed Andy by the arm and was demanding to speak to her. He was hurting her. Andy yelled at him to stop, he didn't and Andy floored him. "

Oliver came over, "Ok, Andy lets pull him up and I will take him to holding."

Sam walked over and wrapped his arms around Andy, "You ok?"

"Yes, I just didn't want to go with him", said Andy and she looked down at her feet.

Sam hooked his finger under her chin and pulled it up, "You don't have to go with anyone you don't want to."

Nick walked over and laughed, "Now if you could do that every time someone you don't like tries to make you do something you don't want to do, we would all be a happy camper." Nick smirked at Sam.

Frank decided to speak up, "Ok, everyone give their statements, those on duty, go back to work, those not on duty, go home. Andy, your not on duty anymore today, go home. See you tomorrow."

Sam dug into his pocket, "Take the truck, I can get a ride to your house later, if you want me to stop by."

"That would be great. Can we have dinner together?"

"Yeah, I will see you at dinner."


Everyone gave his or her statements, Andy and Noelle headed home and the rest went back to duty. The rest of the day went quiet and calm.

Sam noticed it was close to five thirty and started to pack up. "Traci, I am going to head to Andy's if you don't need anything else from me."

"No, Sam, I am good. I will call you if anything comes up."

"Thanks, see you tomorrow."

Sam pulled into Andy's parking lot and saw that the lights were dimmed, when he got out of the truck and got closer to the door, he noticed music, soft, but music none the less. Sam knocked on the door and then put his key in and opened the door.

He walked into the living room, took off his coat and walked into the kitchen.

There she was, in yoga pants and a thin tank top. God, how he loved the sight of her.
