The ride back to the station was silent. Andy was processing her and Sam's whole conversation that they had just minutes ago at the diner. She could not even imagine the pain that Sam had to go through. She would have taken his place in a second if it meant that he would not have to suffer through Jamie Brennan's torture again. It broke her heart to see the look on Sam's as he was telling her what happened it was like with every that he spoke he was reliving the whole heart breaking experience over and over again in his mind. She hated herself for making him retell her what happened because the last thing that she ever wanted to do was to cause Sam any pain but she felt like she needed to know what happened so that she could process it in her own way so when Sam needed to talk about she would be able to help him through it without falling apart herself.

Back at the station

Sam had noticed that Andy had been quiet ever since they left the dinner he knew that telling her what happened to him would have an effect on her

You ok ?

Yeah why

You haven't said a word since we left the diner

I'm just trying to wrap my head around it that's all

Baby it's not your fault this happened to me you know that right

I know you say that but I still feel like it is my fault because if I had not come to the Inn then we wouldn't have slept together then Jamie wouldn't have made you and we would not be in this situation

Wait so are you regretting us ?

No no … babe that's not what I'm saying at all are you kidding me? Come here

She wrapped her arms around him and pulled him to her

I love you Sam I just wish that I had done things differently

Things such as ?

Well things like I wish I had kissed you after we had found each other and we were standing by the ambulance holding hands because then you would known how I felt before you went under that night …. Instead I left you that stupid voicemail message about " screw the plan I want my candy now"

she bends her head down so that she is looking down at the floor

Andy baby look at me

Sam hooks his finger under her chin so that she is looking him in the eyes

All that matters is that we are together and that we are happy …. Nothing else matters but you and me and that we love each other ok Brennan and all of his issues don't matter as long as I have you we can handle anything

You'll always have me I'm not going anywhere I promise

Good

Remember when I told you that Jamie said that somebody from our division had covered up his family's accident

Yeah why

Well he told me who that person was

Ok so who was it?

Ok if I tell you promise me that you won't flip out

She nods her head

Ok

Sam pauses

Babe

It was Boyd

What !

Yeah

So he is really the one at fault for putting you in danger !

Yeah

I'm gonna kill him

she started to walk to best's office when san grabbed her around the waist

whoa whoa slow down there tiger

SAM YOU WERE ALMOST KILLED BECAUSE OF WHAT HE DID AND WHAT MAKES IT WORSE FOR ME IS THAT I COULD HAVE LOST YOU BECAUSE OF HIM AND IF SOMEONE PUTS THE LOVE OF YOUR LIFE IN DANGER JUST TO COVER THEIR ASS AND TO KEEP THEIR SUPERIORS FROM FINDING OUT WHAT THEY HAVE DONE THAT IS UNFORGIVABLE IN MY BOOK! Best needs to know babe

I know baby trust me I know if anybody took you from me I would make them suffer like nobody's business… Boyd will go down for this I promise you that

What are you gonna do ?

Confront Boyd and tell him that I know that truth and If he doesn't come forward ,tell the truth and turn himself in then I will

Sounds good

Either way Boyd's career is over and he is done`

Do you want me to do anything ?

No

Ok

But thank you

For what ?

For just being you , for being my partner for being the one who will always have my back , for being the strongest most beautiful women I know ,

For being the women that I love more than anything in this entire world I could go on for days

Babe Andy was blushing

It's the truth I don't know what I would do without you babe

Me either

I love you McNally

I love you too Swarek

You better

You better love me too

I do baby I do more than I did the day before if that is even possible

Oh it's possible

I thought so

We better get back on those crazy streets

Yeah we better

We will continue this later

That we will McNally

HAHAHAHAHAHHAHA

Get your mind out of the gutter babe we have work to do

My mind is not in the gutter

Oh yes it is

Ok it is but I can't help that I have a hot girlfriend

That's true but still

Hahahahaha what am I gonna do with you babe

I don't know but that's why you love me

That I do

So when are you going to talk with Boyd ?

As soon as I see him and it's not going to be pretty

Ok just don't do anything that would get you suspended again because I need you

I need you too and I won't I promise

Ok let's get back out there then

Yes officer McNally

Shut up she hits Sam's arm playfully

Everyone could hear them both laughing as they walked out the door back out into the bitter cold of Toronto
