Chapter 10

Sam adjusted the pillows, he then turned to her with a huge grin.

„So.. which side of the bed would you like?"

„Right"

Sam threw an extra pillow on the right side and moved to his closet. Andy watched him and when he suddenly removed his shirt, she turned and headed to her side of the bed.

„You know you can change in the bathroom... I did" Andy mentioned

„Yeah I know" he grinned

„Oh I almost forgot" she walked to the kitchen and came back with a glass of water. She handed it to Sam.

„Your water"

„Thanks" he took it, slightly touching her fingers „It's really cold"

Andy frowned „You prefer cold..."

„I do" he smiled seriously.

They stared for a minute. Sam wasn't wearing a shirt and it was hard to keep her eyes on his eyes. When she stole too many glances to his chest she checked his bandage.

„When is your doctor appointment?"

„Day after tomorrow"

„Can I come with?"

„Sure, then you can be my girlfriend again" he grinned

Andy rolled her eyes and walked to her side of the bed. Sam turned off the lights and did the same.

They both lay on the bed staring at the ceiling. It was a comfortable silence that lasted only few minutes, because Andy couldn't sleep nor stay silent.

„Sam, you still awake..."

„Yeah"

She paused not sure how to start.

„Just say it" he was anxious to know what's on her mind.

„Sarah told me something" she turned to her side, facing Sam's right side.

It was dark but she saw how Sam rubbed her forehead.

„Do I want to know what?"

„No" Andy admitted, watching his arm.

„Do you want me to know?"

„Yes" she said silently.

Sam paused „Tell me"

„You sure? Because..."

„Andy" he turned his head to face her „Tell me"

She looked down and Sam turned his head back to look at the ceiling.

„What did you think of me the first time we met?"

„That's a question..."

„You can ask me a question, if you answer this"

Sam smirked accepting the conditions. „Okay"

Andy heard his smile from his answer.

„I was impressed...Very very pissed off, but impressed. You didn't back down or give up, you stayed where you were supposed to stay." he wanted to say more but didn't trust himself.

Andy thought that maybe Sarah was really right. Maybe it did go all the way back to that day.

„My question" Sam turned his head to her, wanting to ask about the blackout, but changed it at the last second.

„Do you like Sarah? he watched at the ceiling again.

„That's your question? Are you sure?"

Sam nodded.

Andy sighed knowing he wanted to know about the blackout „I was confused and wanted to be with somebody, talk to somebody, but nobody was around. I was alone." her eyes went sad „After I cried, I wanted to be with the one person who was there for me. So I just went to him. Following my gut, like you told me to."

Sam was surprised to hear her answer, but glad she told him.

Andy continued „Sarah is like a long lost sister, I love her" she laughed „We have so much in common and I love how you are with her."

„What do you mean?" he looked at her confused

„My turn..." she pointed her finger

Sam laughed silently.

„Why haven't you hit Luke?" she looked at him.

Sam was surprised „Do you want me to?"

„No, but I was pretty sure you would" she adjusted her pillow „I like to think that I know you and it didn't make sense."

He said quickly „I knew you didn't want me to, but I will now, that I know you'll understand" then slowed down „You think you know me?" he grinned.

She was confused „What? You know me too"

„That's not the same..."

„Yes it its"

„No, it's not."

Andy stood up and sat next to him legs crossed. Sam interested what's going to happen leaned on one side and rested his head on his hand.

„Okay, let's see then" she looked determined to win. Sam laughed, to him she looked adorable.

„Let's" Sam mocked her, looking like this was really serious.

„Who is the person I call the most when I need something"

He snorted „Me"

„No it's not" she thought for a second remembering last 5 times she needed something.

„Shit"

Sam laughed.

„What's my favorite flower?"

„Red rose, but you are thinking about changing that because of Luke"

„What about favorite car?"

„My truck" He smiled to himself saying that.

She stopped, trying to think something he can't know

„Why do I like the right side of the bed?"

„You don't, you want the side closer to the window so when the sun shines in the morning you could feel it"

„Four out of four" he grinned

Andy was hiding, how shocked she was that he knew all the answers so quickly.

„Okay, Swarek. Give me your best shot" she looked a bit angry, ready to answer better and faster than him.

„Why do I hate to work in the morning?"

„You don't hate it...You like it because it's the opposite what you did while being undercover"

„What's my favorite piece of clothing you own?

„That cute white dress"

„Who do I love?"

Andy without thinking said „Me" she then paused confused „Wait, what?"

Sam sat next to her inches away from her „Who do I love?" he repeated.

Andy could feel his hand touch her waist. He moved his lips to her neck and kissed it gently.

They looked each other and Andy whispered „Me..."

He kissed her softly and looked at her, seeing the desire in her eyes. Andy put her hand on his chest and pushed him on his back. She carefully tried not to put so much pressure on his wound, while moving closer to Sam.

„Don't worry about me" he rolled on the bed that he was now on top of her. He traced his hand from her high waist to her thigh. At the same time leaning in to kiss her.

Andy pulled him closer feeling him with every part of her body. The moment their lips touched Andy deepened the kiss, wanting more. While putting her leg around him he brushed his wound and she felt his muscles tighten.

She pulled away, his lips still close. „I'm sorry"

„It's okay" he kissed her but she pulled away again, regretting it instantly.

He sighed and laid back on his own side. She came to his side keeping a hand on his chest.

„Sam... What if it was me who was with a bullet wound"

He touched her cheek „I would tell you to take a cold shower and get used to me being so sexy all the time?" he grinned

She laughed, but played along „How? You are so handsome..." moving closer to kiss him. He put his arms around her.

„It's just something you have to deal with." he kissed her neck again moving lower.

„I can't stop you anymore" she admitted.

„Good" meeting her lips again. He turned to be on top of her again and raised her top with his hand, lips still on hers.

Sam pulled away realizing something „You have to go to work in the morning"

„So?"

„If we start this you will be late for work..."

„I sleep in all the time"

„This time you won't get any sleep"

Andy chuckled „I don't mind"

„I do" he kissed her softly one more time and laid down next to her, still holding on hand over her waist.

Andy sighed „How do you expect me to sleep now?"

Sam held her closer „Right here, in my arms..."

She smiled and hoped they will continue this tomorrow.

When she fell asleep, Sam looked at her, not believing that she was here. In his house, in his bed, in his arms, safe and loved.

Andy woke up her head on Sam's shoulder. She smiled remembering last night and snuggled closer to him.

„Andy, you already snoozed your alarm three times." Sam said eyes still closed.

„It's so unfair." Andy frowned

„You have to go" touching her back

„And you were supposed to make me coffee"

„I did"

Andy looked on the nightstand, one hot cup off coffee waiting for her.

„When did you do that?"

„15 minutes ago, there is one cup in the kitchen to go."

She kissed Sam on the cheek "Thank you!" and got ready for work.
