One week later...

"Good to see you back here, McNally," Oliver said, clapping her good naturedly on the back.

"It's good to be back," Andy smiled and meant it. She craned her neck, trying to locate the one person she wanted to see.

She and Sam hadn't yet told anybody at 15 that they were together yet, so they still came to work seperately. They didn't want to be found out because that could mean terminating their partnership, but it was only a matter of time, they supposed.

She spotted Sam by the desk, already suited up in uniform, staring intently at one of the computer screens.

His face lit up when he saw her and he got up to go to her. He took the bag that was hanging over her shoulder and rubbed her arm with his hand. "How's it feel to be back?"

"Great," she said, sincerely. "And can I just say, you look wonderful in that uniform. And not too bad out of it either," she winked.

He laughed, slinging an arm lazily around her shoulder and planting a kiss on her cheek. "Watch it, McNally." They were about to walk away when Andy heard an all too familiar voice call her name.

Andy felt Sam tense beside her and his arm fell back to his side. They both turned around slowly.

Luke was standing there uncomfortably. "Yes, Luke?"

"I think we should talk about what happened before you left. Alone," he added, giving a pointed look at Sam.

Andy gave a shake of her head. "Whatever you have to say, you can say in front of Sam." She crossed her arms defiantly.

"Well, I heard about your being in the hospital. How are you feeling?"

"Fine, thanks," she replied, curtly.

Luke cleared his throat. "Jo left," he sighed. "And Andy, I've really missed you."

He went to take a step forward and Sam edged closer to Andy. "I'm okay," she whispered and he backed off, but was still there.

She turned to Luke. "I'm not looking to be anyone's fall back girl," she said.

"That's not what you mean to me. I'm truly sorry about what I did before you left; I wasn't thinking straight. You drive me crazy Andy, in a good way. And I want to make up for what I did to hurt you."

Luke got down on one knee and Andy's mouth dropped open. Sam froze by her side.

"Andy, will you marry me? Again?" he asked with a smile.

That smile once made her weak at the knees and made her change her mind, even when she was being her most stubborn. They key word being once.

Andy blushed, suddenly aware that the whole precinct was focused on their little love triangle.

Sam scoffed and shook his head. He began to walk slowly away, clenching his fists at his side. He was going to lose her all over again. He didn't know why he thought that what happened during the UC job had changed anything. He'd clearly been mistaken.

"Sam, wait!" she called out, stopping him in his tracks.

"Sorry, Luke," she said, looking down at him. She walked over to where Sam was standing and takin his hand. "I'm with Sam now."

Sam pulled her aside while Luke looked on dumbfounded as he climbed to his feet.

"Andy what are you doing?" Sam hissed. "You don't want to be with him anymore?" She had made her choice, but he wanted to be sure.

Andy looked up at Sam, placed a hand on his cheek and spoke loudly enough for everyone to hear. "I love you. I want to be with you. I'm not over thinking it this time."

And in front of Luke and the rest of the PD, Andy kissed Sam.

Amidst the catcalls and whistles, Andy could feel Sam smiling as he kissed her back.

.THE END.


They ended up together in the end, because let's face it, they can't stay away from each other. And on the show, they should stop denying it and just get together already!

So that's the end. I really didn't think this was going to go on as long as it did, but I'm glad you guys liked it! Thanks for all the wonderful and kind reviews. :) ...Sorry it kind of just ended, but I just got another idea for a RB story, but I'm not sure where it's taking me yet, so I'll post it when I get a clue, but I already have the first chapter typed up. So just mentioning it as a heads up ;)
