Enjoy and Please review;-)

I was confused, like seriously confused.

I didn't know where I was, I didn't know why I was here, I didn't know why I felt like I'd been run over by a bus and I didn't know why I couldn't move or open my eyes or anything. It was like I was being kept a prisoner inside of my own body.

Then I heard it. There were strange beeping sounds and other noises which I couldn't really place but then I heard him. It was Sam. He just kept saying over and over "I love you". Was he talking to me? I'm not sure this is so confusing and now I can feel it again, I'm fading.

When we had got to the hospital, she had been rushed straight to surgery. I could honestly not understand anything they were saying they spoke so fast, it was like they were speaking alien.

After thirty minutes almost everyone from 15 had arrived in the waiting room, all trying to reassure me that she would be fine. Traci was an absolute state; she couldn't stop crying and was clinging on to Jerry as if he was the oxygen she needed. Noelle was sitting beside Oliver and he had his arm around her. Chris and Gail were holding hands and Gail appeared to be the rock in that relationship, Dov looked devastated and was fidgeting obviously totally uncomfortable with this situation. Best was calling once an hour to get updates and Luke was nowhere to be seen. Traci told me in between hiccups this was because him and Andy had broken up a week ago and she just hadn't been able to tell me that yet because she loved me too much to lose me. She seemed to be a lot more honest when she realised I loved Andy too. Jerry also told me that Andy's radio had been on when she had told me that she loved me and they all knew exactly what was going on especially after they had heard me screaming I loved her too when the medics were trying to revive her.

It was the longest five hours of my life and that is no exaggeration.

"Who's waiting for Andy McNally?" a tall, dark haired doctor asked.

Everyone raised their hands.

"Okay well who's the next of kin?"

Traci and I went over before he could ask anymore stupid questions

"Okay her surgery went well but there were some complications. The bullet that was lodged in her vest only cracked a rib however this rib then tore her lung and caused it to collapse. We successfully managed to re-inflate the lung however it will be a long time before the rib heals. And as for the bullet that entered her thigh, it tore the femoral artery and caused her to lose huge amounts of blood. It also cracked her femur. However the problem is a fragment of the bullet from her thigh travelled up her artery and eventually ended up in her brain. This caused her brain to swell but luckily it didn't burst the artery or cause any permanent damage as far as we can see. The fragment has now been removed but Miss McNally has been put into a medically induced coma to ensure that no brain damage will occur and to allow the swelling to go down. We will hope to bring her out of the coma by tomorrow.

The overload of information was almost too much for me to handle but then I kicked into cop mode.

"So you're telling me that she is going to be in a coma before there's even a chance that she will wake up again?"

"Yes officer Swarek that is what I'm saying and I understand this is a lot to take in but this is the best course of treatment and we are confident that by tomorrow the swelling will have gone down enough for us to wake her and there will be absolutely no permanent damage"

"So after tomorrow she will be back and able to speak and everything?"

"Yes Officer Swarek we are cautiously optimistic that everything will be fine by tomorrow, now if you will excuse me I have other patients" and with that he turned and left.

I was left staring after him while Traci turned and told everyone else what we had been told.

I heard footsteps behind me and felt a hand on my arm and turned to see Noelle.

"You know Sammy this could have been a lot worse and from what the doctor says it will only be 24 hours until your girl wakes up and you're able to tell her properly that you love her" and then raising her voice loud enough for everyone else to hear "Okay there's a whole lot of paperwork back at the barn and we are absolutely no use around here so Dov take Oliver's squad car with Chris back to the barn but swing by the community centre and get Sammy's car too. Gail and Oliver in my car and Jerry take Traci home and I'll tell Best that you guys are taking the rest of today and tomorrow off. Oh and Sam I'll bring some clothes and stuff around for you and McNally after shift and I'm ordering you to stay with her until she wakes up."

Then she left with everyone else. That woman really was amazing. I asked at the desk and got directions to room 3265 and went in.

Andy looked so tiny and pale in the hospital bed. It was a scary thing to see, her lying there looking so fragile, with tubes and monitors hooked up to her everywhere. I pulled the chair and took her hand in between mine. It was cold. It was only then that the day caught up with me and I realised how bad it had been and how exhausted I was. I couldn't sleep though so I just kept telling her I loved her over and over hoping she would wake up and eventually sleep found me.

Everything was silent now and it still didn't make any more sense to me where I was.

I could hear someone's slow, deep breathing next to me and felt my heart brighten with the hope that maybe it was Sam. I love him so much, where is he?

It was the morning after the poker game. For the first time ever, Jerry and Sam had allowed the girls to join in. We had all gone around to Jerry's. There was Jerry, Sam, Traci, Oliver, Noelle and me. We had all been so excited and me, Traci and Noelle had decided that we would not only beat the guys at their own game but we would also drink them under the table. I had won 100 bucks that night, Traci lost 50, Noelle won 300, Sam lost 200, Jerry lost 300 and Oliver didn't win or lose anything. We had drunk two bottles of tequila, four bottles of wine and a bottle of vodka between the six of us and it felt like it too. We had all eventually left Jerry's at 5 to walk home.

I got to the station just before parade and looked like hell. I could hear Traci groaning with me every time someone slammed a locker door. Noelle seemed fine and we hadn't seen the guys yet.

I heard whistling behind me and winced. Sam breezed past looking the same as ever.

We got our assignments and of course I was riding with Sam so I went to the cruiser got into the passenger seat and hoped the 10 hour shift would be over soon.

Sam got into the cruiser and started it up and within seconds we were leaving the lot.

"So you look like hell" he joked.

"Thanks, now can you shut up" I growled.

"No can do McNally, I seem to remember a little time when I was hungover and I got no sympathy off you"

"No fair Sam, I drank twice as much as you last night and beat your ass so you owe me"

"Well I'll think about it. So how about some breakfast"

That was the final straw. I signalled to him to pull over and without argument he did. As soon as we had stopped I jumped out and puked all over the side of the road. It was surprising when I felt a hand rubbing my back. He was actually trying to comfort me.

"Sam I don't think breakfast is a good idea" I said weakly.

"You think McNally, I was looking forward to a big, greasy bacon roll but now I'm totally off it" he said jokingly but then realised the food reference was the reason my vomiting was starting again. "Sorry McNally I didn't mean too, I was trying to make you feel a bit better"

"It's okay, I'm done now"

"You sure cos I can get you a sick note if you need it?" he said concern ringing in his tone

"Yeh I'm good thanks, I just need to relax for a bit" I said as I climbed back into the cruiser. He followed my lead and got in too but once he was back in and had started the cruiser his hand was once again rubbing my back, while I was leaning forward, and I have to say it was helping so much. I could feel the warmth coming off his hand and a trail of goosebumps following it moving up and down my back. This never happened when Luke touched me.

I eventually fell asleep with him still rubbing my back and had the best sleep that I'd had in months.

I felt him gently shaking me and looked around. We were back in the barn, how had we got back here and what time was it

Sam saw my look of confusion and an amused look crossed his face.

"It's okay McNally, you fell asleep and I decided I just couldn't deal with you on a hangover so I let you sleep and we had no calls so I just drove around for a couple of hours but the shifts over now so you're gonna have to get up."

I remember thinking at the time that was the sweetest thing anyone had ever done for me but over the months until now I think he may have been even sweeter.

I woke up and realised it was light outside and looked like it was well into the morning. I checked the time and realised it was ten in the morning. As I started to get up I felt a huge pain in my neck and knew I was an idiot to have slept for eight hours in the same position, just as I winced and started to raise my hand to rub the back off my neck another hand beat me too it. It took me a few seconds to process exactly what I was seeing. Andy was awake and rubbing my neck and although her eyes were glazed over with pain she looked happy. It was then she noticed me looking at her.

"Oh sorry Sam did I wake you" she said cheerfully but I knew her well enough to hear the pain too.

"Andy when did you wake up, have you called a doctor, how much pain are you in?" the amount of questions I had were ridiculous.

I pressed the buzzer straight away realising that she wouldn't have and hoped someone would come soon because I couldn't deal with seeing her in this much pain

"Andy why didn't you wake me, you must be in so much pain?"

"I'm sorry, you just looked so peaceful and it was better finally knowing where I was instead of having the darkness and the quiet"

"Don't be sorry, I'm sorry for just falling asleep like that. Did you know that you're supposed to be in a coma?"

"Ahh that would explain the darkness, well maybe I was too desperate to see you to stay in the coma"

"McNally you are seriously hurt, I almost lost you"

"I know but you didn't and Sam I know you're angry just now but I love you"

"Andy I can't be angry at you and even though what you did in the community centre was incredibly stupid, I'm not angry"

"Oh and Andy I love you too"

It was then the nurse came in, smiling at the exchange she had just heard but then remembering Andy was meant to be in a coma and paged the doctor. He came along within a few minutes and seemed really surprised but recovered and immediately gave Andy some morphine to help with the pain explaining this meant she would probably be asleep again for up to 8 hours.

"I love you so much Andy and I'll be here when you wake up"

"I love you too Sam" and then she drifted off to sleep.

Now I'm kinda stuck on what to do for chapter 4 and i don't know whether just to let them be happy ever after or to make up another drama. Any suggestions will be welcome.

Please review. Thanks again.
