A/N: I do not own Rookie Blue :(


Chapter 3

Six months, Six long, hard months without any contact, not calls, text messages, emails letters NOTHING! Sam was beyond pissed.

"Hey Sammy, parade in 5." Oliver popped his head around the lockers.

Sam slammed his locker with extra force, causing the remaining officers and Oliver to jump. Sam just stormed out of the locker room.

"What's eating you?" Oliver question as he came to Sam's side.

"Nothing" Sam spat.

"You know it's been six months, I didn't think" Oliver began.

"I know it's been 6 months, ok Oliver I don't need reminding" Sam said as he walked into parade, just as Best started to talk.

"6 months ago both Officer McNally and Collins were put undercover as a part of the 'Dakota project', tonight is the bust. Detective Callaghan is here to fill us in on how tonight proceedings will go down." Best state as Callaghan stood at the podium.

"Thanks, right here what is going down, at about 9pm tonight a deal is going down, Collins has made a lot of head way, his become Royce Dakota's right hand man. There is about 2.3 million in street value of heroin being brought into the city tonight; both Collins and McNally will be involved in the bust. The bust will be going down on the docks now everyone in this room will be in the take down in some way, Team Alfa will be: Dias, Shaw, Price, Cruz, Peck will be located here on the north side." Callaghan said point to the map. "And Team Bravo will be Swarek, Nash, Andrews and Williams they will be on the south side of the dock."

"S.W.A.T will be located here, here and here. When Collins or McNally give me the signal we will move in, when that happens Team Alfa will move in and clear the North side at the same time Team Bravo moves in the clear the South side." Callaghan finished looking at Best to take over.

"Right, everyone gets brought in! Both McNally and Collins will still be undercover so they will also be brought in as suspects, Any questions?" Best asked looking around the room.

"Good, everyone that is on patrol today keep clear of the docks we don't want to spook them if they see patrol cars, we already have surveillance on them so keep away. All cars will be called in at 6pm that are involved in the take down and night shift will take over normal patrol as well as the remaining day shift." Best said. "Serve, Protect and stay away from the docks"

"Looks like the wait is over" Oliver smirked as he looked at Sam.

Sam just continued to look forward, unsure if he was happy at the fact that Andy was coming back.


"You ready for this?" Collins asked looking over to where Andy was sitting on the lounge.

Andy looked up "Yeah, I'm a little nervous, but hey after tonight we get our lives' back." Andy smiled.

"Yep, you finally get to face Swarek and I have to face Gail." Collins smirked.

"Who do you think hates us more?" Andy joked.

"Well Sam's in love with you so… but Gail Peck" Collins bit his lip "I think I win."

"You ever been in a situation like tonight?" Andy asked crossing her legs.

"With Gail or the bust" Collins questioned.

"The bust" Andy chuckled.

"No, not really, I mean does the four years in Iraq count?" Collins asked.

Andy shrugged her shoulders. "I guess I mean there will be guns" they both laughed.

"What about you? What was you lasted bust like?" Collins asked.

"I was with Sam it was one of 15th biggest bust in history, I was left alone with this kid while Sam and the dealer took off to a different location, when I realised the moment he walks into the warehouse he would be dead, so I went to leave and the kids pulls a gun on me, I turn my back on him, telling him to shoot me or let me walk away, I told him I was a cop and he let me go and run to the surveillance van hopping I wasn't too late to save Sam, I get there and there's a body lying on the ground… I um… I thought it was Sam, but it turned out it was the dealer." Andy took in a deep breath as she tried to hold back the tears "I thought Sam was dead and I just kept thinking the whole way there that if he died, it would be my fault."

"Right let's make a pack right now, we don't under any circumstance separate tonight, yeah? You leave I leave, you stay I stay?" Nick asked.

Andy slowly nodded "Deal"

"I think Swarek would kill me if didn't bring you back in one piece" Nick smirked.

"Shut up" Andy said as she threw the pillow at him.


Nick walked over to the docks with Andy hand in hand. They stopped at the top of the wharf where Dakota was waiting.

"Coles, Andy" Dakota nodded towards each of them.

"Boss" Nick nodded back as Andy just smiled. "How long until the boat arrives?"

Dakota turned his head to the water and nodded towards the boat that was coming into the shore.

Nick and Andy both took deep breaths as the boat pulled in and began unloading, nick walked over to check the product with one of Dakota's boys while Andy stayed with Dakota and the money.

Nick walked back over to where Andy and Dakota where standing and nodded to him "It's all there?"

Dakota nodded "2.3 million as agreed."

"Good" Nick said as he took the bag off Andy as handed it to Dakota.

Dakota took the bag and opened it. As he began to count the money "I'll have to boys unload the stock into the warehouse for you"

Nick nodded "Sounds good."

Dakota gave the signal to the men on the boat and they began to off load the product.

Both Nick and Andy watched as all three men got off the boat. Nick turned to Andy and said the signal "Pay day's arrived baby" kissing her of the lips.

"Save the celebrations for…" Dakota froze as he heard the screams of the officers that suddenly swarmed the docks.

"POLICE DON'T MOVE!" "GET ON YOUR KNEES AND PUT YOUR HANDS ON YOUR HEAD, NOW! DO IT NOW!"

Both McNally and Collins knew they had to make it look like they weren't cops so they began to run in the opposite directions Nick heading North while Andy headed south.

Andy's pulse began to quicken as she began running knowing in would be about 30 seconds before a officer court up with her.

No sooner did she began to slow she heard the footsteps and voices telling her to stop.

She continued to run until she felt someone make a grab for her she began to lose her balance as she landed with and 'ohff' as the Officer tackled her to the ground. "Seriously, you don't have to be so ruff." Andy said as the Officer pulled both her hand behind her back. "I'm on the job" Andy replied in a whisper as she tried to get a look at the person on top of her.

The Officer put the cuffs on her as they replied "Not anymore, get up"

Andy smirked as she heard Sam's voice "Hey" She replied as she stood up and faced him.

"Andy Michaels your under rest, you have the right to remain silent, you give up that right anything you say can and will be used against you, you have the right to an attorney, if you cannot afford one, one will be provide to you, do you understand these rights as I have read them to you?" Sam asked as he led her to the cruiser.

"I know my rights" Andy spat as Sam lowered her head into the cruiser.

Sam closed the door and headed over to Oliver.

"Tell me, when you tackled her did you try and kiss her?" Oliver smirked at Sam's pissed off persona.

"Your squad car is full Shaw maybe you want to take it to the barn" Sam huffed as he walk over to his cruiser.

Oliver just chuckled as he headed over to his cruiser. Tonight was going to be interesting.

Both Oliver and Chloe got into the cruiser and looked in the review mirror "Amazing" Oliver chuckled quietly to himself.

"What" Chloe asked looking at Oliver.

"Nothing, nothing, that's good, good work" Oliver smiled tightly at Price.

Andy couldn't help but smirk, remembering back to her first day.


After what felt like hours both Nick and Andy were able to leave the briefing room.

"It's finally over" Andy said exhausted.

"Yep looks like we finally get our lives back" Nick smiled.

Andy nodded. "I can't wait to go home and sleep in my own bed" Andy laughed.

They both looked at each other "Well I was a pleasure playing your fake boyfriend Officer McNally, Swarek's a lucky guy." Collins said holding out his hand.

Andy smiled as she lent in and gave him a hug. Nick returned the hug "You want a lift to the Penny?" Nick said pulling away from her.

"Yeah" Andy smiled as they turn and walked towards the door. No bothering to notice that Sam had been standing there watching the whole thing.

Sam turned and slammed the door behind him as he turn the opposite way from Andy and Nick


"It's good to have you back McNally" Oliver said placing a drink in front of her.

"Thanks Oliver" Andy smiled looking up at him.

"Yeah I don't know about you guys but I missed having to get this one out of danger on a daily basis." Oliver smirked as he patted her on the shoulder.

"Thanks" Andy scoffed then laughed.

"Well I personally am happy to have my best friend back in one piece and so is Leo I know his been missing his Aunt Andy" Traci said smiling.

"Well I missed him too" Andy smiled.

"Right, I just came over to welcome you back and buy you a drink. I might head back over to um" Olivier said pointing over to where Sam was sitting. "Um yeah, good to have you back and I'll see you back at work on Monday" Oliver finished.

Andy nodded as she watched Oliver walk over to Sam. Oliver sat on the sit next to him "you should go and talk to her" Oliver said looking back over to Andy.

"I've got nothing to say" Sam said as he looked over to Andy who was looking right at him. Sam looked away, downing his drink as he held up his hand ordering another one.

Andy looked back down at her drink taking another sip. "So what have we missed?" Andy said trying to distract herself from Sam.

"A lot has happen in 6 months" Dov replied.

"I know get us court up!" Andy said laughing.

"Where to start?" Dov began.

"Well the night you left, I got my job back I had to ride with the TO's again but at the end of this month I'll get cut lose again" Gail said smiling sarcastically as she looked at Nick.

"I'm sorry" Nick said as he placed his hand on hers.

Gail remove her hand quickly "Whatever"

Over the next hour all the rookies told both Andy and Nick about all the things they had missed out on. The whole time Andy couldn't help but sneaking a glance at Sam, each time trying to work up the courage to go and talk to him.

Sam had finished his third drink over the past three hours when he looked up to see Andy looking at him yet again.

"Seriously, just go and talk to her." Oliver said looking at Sam.

Sam huffed as he got up, pick up his leather jacket and began to walk towards the rookie table. Oliver looked over with a smile which was quickly replaced with a frown when Sam continued to walk to the door the exit.

Andy saw Sam coming towards her and tried to prepare herself. When she saw that Sam had continued to walk towards the door she excused herself and followed him out.

"So what you're not even going to talk to me?" Andy asked.

"You left Andy what is there to say" Sam said as he began to walk away.

"Sucks doesn't it?" Andy scoffed.

"What?" Sam said stopping turning around.

"When the person that you love just leaves"

"What, so what you did this as punishment?" Sam scoffed.

"No! I may have been hurting but I wouldn't, I didn't leave on purpose Sam"

Sam chuckled roughly "So how was Collins, was it as good as you hoped?"

"What's that supposed to mean?"

"I saw you with him. Did you sleep with him?" Sam yelled stepped closer to her.

"Nothing happened!" Andy exclaimed.

"You left Andy! For 6 months! 6 MONTHS! Without so much as a phone call." Sam yelled.

"You know I couldn't tell anyone, you know that you have to be ready at a moment's notice Sam" Andy yelled back.

"You could have gotten Ryan to pass on the message, hell Collins relayed a message to Peck!"

"I'm sorry ok, I didn't, I thought Luke would have told you." Andy said in a softer voice. "So that's it after everything we just walk away?"

"You left, I told you I loved you and you left." Sam said

"It only took me holding a bomb for you to tell me how you felt" Andy sniggered

"I made a mistake and I realised that, I tried to fix it the only way I knew how and you left. So I don't know Andy, I don't know."

And for the second time in 8months Andy watched as Sam walked away. Andy nodded as she wiped the tears from her eyes; she then turned and walked back into the penny.
