Really loving where this story is going. Please let me know what you think!

"So did you think about what I said today?"

"It's all I thought about today."

"And…." Traci stopped pulling her belongings out of her locker, and looked at Andy expectantly. Andy looked up from folding her clothes.

"I've got to talk to Luke." Traci just nodded and went back to grabbing her clothes and let a few moments lapse and then asked "Are you okay?"

Andy sighed and sat down on the bench in front of her. "I'm not ready. You know." She looked up a Traci looking for approval.

"It was really fast." Traci confirmed. Pausing in hesitation she peered at Andy from her position at her locker. Realizing that Andy wanted her to continue she turned to face her. "Okay I'm just going to say it."

"Say what?"

"I'm not judging."

"Ok?..."

"What about Swarek?"

"What about Swarek." Andy said pointedly standing up to continue to fold her clothes.

"Is he a contributing factor?"

"No."

"Well that was definitive." Traci said closing her locker.

"What's going on with you and Jerry?" It was Andy's turn to turn the screws.

"I don't know what you're talking about." Traci sat down pretending to be very interested in finding something in her bag.

"Right." She over annunciated the 't' for emphasis.

"We're just going to dinner. There's no foul in that."

"Hey, I'm not judging." Andy put her hands up in fake defense with a smirk on her face. They were both silent for a moment. Andy closed her locker and grabbed her bag, Traci stood up and followed her out of the locker room.

"Dex is great with Leo, you know he's his dad, but I…I don't know." Traci said shaking her head.

" Yeah I know. More than you think" Andy said sighing. "It sounds cheesy but your head is telling you one thing and your heart another. It sucks."

It was at that exact moment that Jerry appeared next to them walking in step with their time. Andy looked over at the two, her eyes darting between each one. Traci on the other hand just kept staring forward, a small smile playing on her lips.

"Ladies." Jerry greeted.

"Detective Barber." Andy acknowledged then directing her words to Traci "I'll talk to you tomorrow Trac."

"Uh-huh, and the conversation better involve canceling a U-Haul reservation." She called after her.

Andy waved her hand dismissively and kept walking. "Yeah, Yeah." As she headed for the door. Andy could hear Jerry asking "What U-Haul?" as she made her way through the desks towards the back exit.

Traci looked at him and placed a hand on his shoulder "It's better if you just continue to stand there and look pretty." She walked past him towards the front desk. Jerry opened his mouth to say something and stood there considering her words.

"I think I should be offended." He walked to stand next to her.

"Don't be. I'm really saving you from this."

"Oh, Really." He leaned against the edge clearly amused by her theory. "And by 'this' I'm assuming you mean McNally and Swarek." Tracy stopped what she was doing and looked at Jerry. He couldn't tell if she was shocked or amused.

"I pleed the fifth."

"Oh come on Trac like I don't know what's going on around here." He said in such an arrogant way that Traci rolled her eyes and just gave him a pointed look. "Okay, Okay." He put his hands up defensively. "Maybe I don't know what's always going on around here, but I do know more about Sam Swarek then you think my dear."

"Oh yeah." It was Traci's turn to lean against the counter. "So tell me Mr. Know-it-all, what is going on with Andy and Sam?" She looked at him expectantly.

"Well clearly they have a thing for each other." Traci just chuckled at his attempt to keep up. "Ah, yeah clearly." She went back to looking for her keys.

"And she's moving in with Luke."Traci just kept searching around the desk not really wanting to get into the details.

"Right?" Traci just gave him a meaningful look. "No?" He said more surprised this time.

"Listen." She said to him finally finding her keys and starting to walk towards the door. Jerry followed expectantly. "I don't know Sam, but I do know Andy. She has a tendency to fall for the wrong guys, and she may be reconsidering some things."

"Okay so," He opened the door for her "Who is the wrong guy in this situation?" He asked.

"Here's the irony that no one saw coming." Traci stopped in her tracks to look at Jerry. "They both are." She continued to walk and he continued to follow.

"Wait, wait, wait. Luke and Sam are both good guys. Maybe McNally's the one with the 'bad' reputation."

"I never said they weren't good guys, and Andy doesn't have a bad reputation she just has bad taste in men."

"I don't know if I really want to continue this conversation." Jerry said shaking his head.

"You're the one who wanted to be let in on it" She opened her car door and threw her bag in the back. "So you only have yourself to blame." She smirked at him clearly flirting with him.

"Oh, really Officer Nash." Jerry smiled and came close to her grabbing her waist to pull her closer than they already were.

"Really" He gave her a quick kiss and then pulled away a little.

"Do you want to know my opinion?"

"Hmm?"

"I think I'm team Sandy." Traci pushed away from him a little to get a good look at his face.

"Team what?"

"Sandy."

"What the hell is…Oh" Traci realized he was referring to Sam and Andy. "Where did that come from?" She was confused by his knowledge of the situation.

"Well like I said I've known Sam awhile, and we're pretty good friends. He really isn't as bad ass as he'd like us to think he is. I think Andy is good for him."

"That's not what I meant, I meant the, the" She gestured her arm in the air to nothing in particular "Sandy reference."

"Oh that." He said so passively that it came off sarcastic. He gave her another kiss and then opened the front door to her car for her.

"Well I guess when I sit there and look pretty, I hear a few things."
