I hope you guys enjoy this chapter.

Congratulation to everyone who was nominated for the Rookie Blue Choice award.

"I- I don't know. I have for a while I guess." He knew the exact moment he just really didn't want to admit it her and himself.

"Come on you've got to know. Was I still a rookie or not? Was it before or after the blackout. Or was it our-"

"Our first shift."

"Our first shift? You were an ass most of the day."

"True but when you saved my ass in the restaurant I knew there was something about you. And I couldn't get enough of you. "

Andy was now sitting in his lap. "You know we've wasted so much time."

"Then let's not waste anymore." He said pulling her down for another kiss.

Which was short because Sam heard another animal sound. "Relax Sam. Come on lets go inside."

"I like the way you think."

They stayed up a few more hours just talking; really getting to know each other. They decided not jump in to bed together like they did the first time around, so Sam stayed in the guest bedroom, Andy in her own room.

Over the next few days Andy tried her best to turn Sam into a outdoors person. They went hiking, fishing and swimming. But both of their favorite was just relaxing outside at night with each other.

"You know when we get back to Toronto I'm going to miss this." Sam said playing with Andy's hair. He loved the feeling of it under his hands.

"Miss what exactly?" She asked turning her head in his lap to look up at him.

"Relaxing outside with you. No interruptions-" He paused a minute when he heard a growl. He cleared his throat. "No work. Just me and you and a lot of nature."

"Yeah I'm going to miss it too." She let out a heavy sign not wanting things to turn serious. "How are we going to do this when we get back to Toronto?"

"What do you mean?" He asked rising an eyebrow at her.

"US?"

He cleared his throat nervously. "I'm not sure what you mean."

"When you broke up with me you said 'I can't be a cop and be with you.' And you really just meant me. Because you were with Marlo." Andy said sitting up.

"Things have changed." He said holding out his hand.

"How?"

"Being your partner and your boyfriend when we were first together... It was hard. Having you're back and protecting you. Now I'm a detective. That means I'm only your boyfriend."

Andy started giggling. Sam look at her confused,. "I'm sorry it just this is the first time you've called yourself MY 'boyfriend'."

Sam rolled his eyes at her and shook his head. "Anyway, it's different. I mean I will never stop wanting to have your back or too protect you, but I'm not your partner anymore- on the job. Okay?"

"Okay."

"Now let's go inside so we can cook some food. I'm starving."

Ever since that first night they started cooking together. It felt right too both of them, such a simple act being done together.

After dinner Andy was getting ready for bed, when she decided that she wanted to take the next step. "Hey Sam?"

"Yeah," he said as he was putting out the fire.

"Do you… Umm." She sighed nervously. Not really knowing why she nervous. They'd been here before, "Do you want to sleep with me tonight?"

Sam was shocked, rendered speechless.

He stopped what he was doing and looked up at her. Knowing that she only means sleep- as in SLEEP, with closed eyes- because they weren't ready for THAT step just yet. "You sure?".

"Yeah."

"Then yeah."

After a few minutes she just wanted to make sure that he wasn't thinking it was only for THAT. .

"You know it's only-"

"Yeah I know Andy. This is more than okay with me...If you're sure."

"Yeah I'm sure."

That night they both had the best night's sleep they'd gotten in over a year.

Okay what did you guys think? Love it hate it? Let me know I don't care.

If you have idea's that will make it better let me know. Question I'll be happy to answer.

Until next time.
