Heres chapter 6 for you guys. and for once i didnt end it on a cliffy. well atleast on completely :)
i might not be able to upload chapter 7 tomorrow :( but i'll get it up as soon as i can. promise.
Rookie Blue and its original concepts do not belong to me.
Enjoy!
I realized that what I was saying was making no sense. I was rambling. On and on, and I couldn't seem to stop myself.
Through all my talking, Andy McNally remained silent.
I held my breath in the attempt to stop my rambling. And a few moments later I let my breath out and bent over to touch my forehead to hers.
"Andy please don't leave me."
I was still holding her and rocking her. I didn't care that Daffanzo wasn't cuffed or that the old man was still probably standing around hyperventilating somewhere.
I was whispering nonsense in her ear, willing her to wake up and look up at me with those big brown eyes.
Rationally, I thought that I should call in paramedics for Andy. That son of a bitch guard didn't need one. He was already dead, I'd made sure of that.
However, I could bring myself to do it. It was as though I was glued to the ground, and I could move my hands away from stroking her face.
I was so caught up with Andy, that I didn't notice the doors bang open.
I faintly heard some shouting.
"Stop! Put your arms out where I can see them." I heard someone call.
Some part of my mind registered that the new comers were cops, cops from 15th because that voice belonged to Jerry.
I didn't look up to confirm my thought though.
I just kept rocking Andy in my arms. Back, and forth, back and forth.
A hand suddenly landed on my shoulder, but I didn't acknowledge it. I just kept rocking and rocking, still murmuring to her in soft tones.
The hand tightened on my arm. "Sam." The voice said, and still I ignored it. I couldn't stop talking to her. I couldn't stop looking down into her deathly pale face.
"Sam." The voice said more firmly. I finally tore my gaze away from her face to look up into Jerry's.
His eyes were dark and shadowed. I could see the unspoken sympathy in his eyes. I didn't need sympathy. I need Andy to be alright. Sympathy doesn't do anything for anyone.
"We need to let the paramedics look at her Sam."
"She'll be fine," I said in a small voice that was shaky.
"Yes she will be, but we still need them to look at her. Just to make sure. Come on Sam. Let the meds look at her."
I looked down at Andy's face again. I knew that he was right. I needed to let the meds look at her. It was just that I couldn't bear to let her go.
I was afraid that if I did let go, she'd never come back.
I took a deep breath. Slowly without a word, I cupped Andy's head and moved it out of my lap and softly onto the floor. I got to my knees and looked down at her, then brushed a strand of glossy brown hair away from her face.
With one last caress to her cheek, I got up on shaky legs.
I didn't was to embarrass myself by falling back down onto the floor. Thankfully, Jerry was there and he put an arm around my shoulder to support my weight.
Without turning around, I could tell that the meds were already on her. I could faintly hear the sounds of her clothes being ripped off so they could find the wounds and slow the bleeding.
The doors banged open again and in ran Williams with Nash.
Nash took one look at my face, then her eyes swooped down to my arms and I could see that they widened.
"Oh my god," she breathed.
I looked down to see what she was looking at, and my stomach twisted at what I saw.
Blood. Andy's blood. All over my arms and hands, and no doubt through my clothes.
I forced my eyes back up to hers and saw the fear in them, and she could undoubtedly see the fear in mine.
"Andy," she said. "Where's Andy?"
I couldn't look her in the eye anymore so I looked away.
"Sam! Where is Andy? What's wrong? What happened? Where is she?" her voice was starting to hitch at the lack of my response.
I couldn't bring myself to say anything, so I just turned at looked behind me where the meds were working on Andy.
She followed my gaze and her eyes widened, and her face turned a different shade.
"Andy! Andy! Oh my god. Andy!" she yelled over and over. She tried to rush over, but Williams caught her by the arm.
"Get a hold of yourself officer. You have to let the paramedics check her out." Though Williams' voice was hard, her eyes moved from Nash to look sympathetically at me.
Nash jerked her arm out of Williams' grip and she rushed up to me.
"What did you do? How could you let her get hurt!" she was screaming at me, and honestly I was asking myself the same question. How could I let her get hurt?
Jerry stepped in front of me, putting himself between Nash and me.
"Calm down Traci, this wasn't anyone's fault. Things happen and things go wrong. People get hurt, that's the job. Blaming Sam won't make things any better, so cut it out."
"But it was my fault," I said quietly. "She was my responsibility, and it was my fault she got hurt."
Now Jerry turned to me. "Now don't start," he said to me sternly.
Before he could say more, the paramedics signalled that they were ready to go. I turned and saw Andy secured to a stretcher and my heart lurched.
The meds filed out and the cops followed. I noted from the corner of my eye that the old man was cuffed and was being led to a cruiser by a cop.
I couldn't see Daffanzo and right now i didn't care at all.
They loaded her onto the ambulance and set off towards St. Michaels hospital.
I followed Jerry to his car, but before we got in, he stopped me.
"You should probably go to the station, get your things and go home. You've had a rough day."
Even before he had all the words out, my anger lashed out at him.
"I'm not going anywhere that's not the hospital. I am not going to go home and relax while Andy's fighting for her life because of a stupid mistake that I made."
He started to argue, but saw the look on my face and saw that it would be pointless.
He sighed. "Fine. Let's go. And why don't you fill me in on what happened?"
We got into his car and he drove while I relayed the events to him in a quiet monotone.
Jerry was quiet for a long time. I took a deep breath and sighed.
"She saved my life."
So thats the end of chapter 6. as you can see, it isnt a huge cliffy like my other chapters.
