HI! I am so sorry that I haven't updated in such a long time. These first few weeks of school have been so overwhelming. Just yesterday I had to write two essays basically from scratch. I know a lot of you have way more work to do but it still is hard for me. I really miss summertime and not just because thats when Rookie Blue airs. Well sorry for this short note but in ten munutes I have to go to field hockey. Thanks to anyone who's reviewed and followed this story. I don't own Rookie blue but if I the cliffhanger wouldn't of been Sam coding.
Chapter Eight
Collision
Andy's POV
Andy stood by the Nurses' Station tapping her good foot. She glared down at her crutches and let out a sigh. Great! She thought Now I have to ride the stupid desk for two weeks. The doctor had told her that the bullet hadn't hit anything important and she could go back to work in a week but until her wound healed she had to stay on crutches so that the stitches don't break. She couldn't drive, she could barely walk, and her apartment building didn't have an elevator.
"An!" shouts a voice suddenly. She turns to see Jason barreling over to her, a big smile on his face.
Once he gets to her he envelops her in a huge hug, only stopping only when he hears her hiss in pain.
"Oh I'm sorry! Did I hurt you?" he asks worriedly
She didn't have time to answer as the rest of the 27 rookies came over to her. Hazel kept asking her if she was all right. Luis kept asking what getting shot felt like. Connor kept saying how he would help her find a look that made the crutches look cute. And Jackie, well Jackie didn't really say anything but her being there was enough. As Andy struggled to answer all of the questions she was being hammered with she felt someone standing behind her. She turned around to see Jen standing behind her with her arms crossed,"
"Jen" Andy starts before the older woman puts up her hand stopping her.
"Listen Andy, what you did today was stupid and dangerous. You risked your life and almost lost it," As she says this Andy looks down at the ground ashamed.
"But," says Jen making her look up "You probably saved the lives of all of those kids and I would have done the same exact thing. Though it was stupid it was also extremely brave and ultimately the right the call," With that she reached over and pulled Andy in for a hug.
Sam's POV
Sam watched bewildered as the man rushes past them grinning. They all turned their heads to where the guy was going. By the Nurses' Station stood a woman stomping heer foot impatiently. Sam couldn't see her face but right away, by the way she stood he knew who it was. He watched as the man basically tackled her into a hug and something stirred inside him. The last time he felt it was watching her with Nick. It was jealousy.
Behind him the rookies gaped at the sight before them. Why is she in the hospital? he thought confused. That's when he heard one of the people in the crowd ask what it felt like to get shot.
Sam'a heart almost stopped right then. Andy had gotten shot? How could of he not heard of this? He was sure that Traci was an emergency contact of Andy's. Why wasn't she called. He turns to her.
"Did anyone call you?" He asks her
Traci looks down at the ground. "I got some calls from her about an hour ago," she says "I thought she was just. You know... Trying to apologize and I didn't want to talk."
Sam stares at her dumbfounded. What had McNally done that was so bad? He was just about to ask before he hears a muffled sound coming from where Andy was standing. He turns to see her sobbing and hugging some woman.
Andy's POV
When Jen pulled her in for a hug that was it. All the emotions that have been bottling up these past few days just exploded. The moment Jen pulled her in for a hug she lost it. She had just gotten shot! She was at this new and unfamiliar place and she got shot and she barely knew these people. At the moment she felt like a kid hugging her mom after she got a booboo.
Poor unprepared Jen had no idea what to do. She awkwardly patted Andy on the back and whispered softly "There there,"
Seeing this Jason takes Andy from a bewildered Jen and wraps his arms around her. He leads her over to some chairs and he sits her down while she cries.
The crying goes away fast. Soon she is just sitting in the chair with red eyes and wet cheeks. Only then does she notice her surrondings. Jason and Hazel are sitting on either side of her. Luis, Jackie, Connor, Jen, and Thomas were standing infront of her. Blocking everyones view of what was going on.
Suddenly, even though she had only known most of them for less then a day she felt very close to all of them.
"I'm sorry," she says "I was so unprofessional I-" before she could stop Thomas holds up his hand.
"Andy, you have just been shot, you barely know any of us, and frankly its amazing you haven't just completely shut down yet,"
Andy gapes at him. How could this man who she had barely known for a day, possibly know what she was feeling. Well crying had kind of made it obvious but still.
"Well I have to go," says Jackie awkwardly "Gotta go meet someone. See ya"
With that she turns away and walks, no, what Jackie did wasn't walking, she freaking glided away like some supermodel and Andy couldn't help but feel a litle jealous of how badass she was. She didn't take crap from anyone and suddenly Andy decides she was going to be more like Jackie.
"Andy!" says Jason very loudly. Andy turns around to see Jason staring at her with her eyebrows raised.
"What?" she says confused
"I was just saying that Connor was going to drive you to your house and I am going to pick you up tomorrow," he says
"Oh you guys don't have to do that," She says flustered. "I can just call a cab or take the bus,"
They all give give her looks as if she was crazy "Andy," says Connor "You will let me drive you home. Why? Well because you are on crutches and I am guessing you can't walk, so I am going to give you a ride home. No arguments" Before she could say anything else she hears someone clearingthe throat behind her.
She turns to see Sam standing behind her arms crossed and glaring. "Hi Andy, why don't you introduce us to your new friends,"
Sam's POV
Sam wasn't quite sure what made him go over there. Maybe it was the pang in his heart as he watched her start crying. Maybe it was the anger of seeing her not need him. It was probably hearing Marlo whisper loudly "Nice to see Andy's boyfriend supporting her,"
Well whatever it was he was standing there staring at her expectantly. She had a startled look in her eye and he almost felt bad, but then when he saw her grasp the guy sitting next to her's hand he didn't care. He could feel the rest of his friends stop closely behind him.
Andy looked a little sick. Was it just him or was she turning even paler? He expected her to mumble something and leave. He knew that he was doing a jerky thing by doing something like this to her when she was vunerable, but he didn't care. He was angry. How could she have moved on when just a few months ago she was crying and saying she loved him. It was like they never happened. He knew that he was being selfish and frankly he was too mad to care. So he waited for her to respond.
Andy's POV
Andy gaped at the sight before her. All her new friends stared at her old ones. Maybe she was still a little faint but she could've sworn that Jen, Connor, Luis, and Thomas moved closer to her, as if shielding her. At that moment she really wanted to run and hide. She almost did but then she remembered what she had told herself. Be more like Jackie.
Andy stood up abruptly. She grinned at Sam and said "Well Sam, this is Jason, Hazel, Luis, Connor, Jen, and His Highness Sir Caeden Thomas,"
She glanced at Thomas who was holding back a laugh at what she had just called him. Folllowing her lead the rest of the 27 people got up and stood next to her. She smiled at her old friends. They looked at her startled, she could tell they didn't expect that.
"Sorry, but we have to go," She says in an indifferent voice.
With that she walked or well crutched away.
Well there you go, hope you liked it. Next chapter will probably be short but don't worry the ones after will be longer. Please review! Sorry for mistakes I am in a rush. Adios!
