Disclaimer: - I don't own Rookie Blue

Chapter 8

Sam had no idea what had come over him since the day he met Andy, he had all these feelings just shooting up from no-where. He knew there was just something about her, he was yet to even think of what that could possibly be but he would know eventually.

As the two of them made their way to a quiet spot in the corner away from preying eyes Sam wasn't sure on how to start with the past.

He had blocked it out for so long that he wasn't even sure why he said he was ready to open up.

His hands were sweating and his heart was pounding all because he didn't want to unlock the door he had closed a few years ago.

Andy sat next to Sam wondering what his past could have been like with something so tragic happening. Looking around she noticed that their friend's where getting ready for the second last song so she knew they didn't have long to talk.

Sam had said that he was ready to open up but Andy was actually starting to wonder if that was true; she loved him and she'd let him open up when he was ready not just because she was curious;

"Look Sam you don't need to tell me anything, sure I'm curious but I'll wait for as long as it takes" she said as she studied the side of his face, from this angle though she couldn't get a read on him. Sam listened to Andy talk and knew right then why this was one of the reasons he loved her; she wasn't a pusher, she'd give him all the time in the world to talk when he was ready and not because she was in a rush to know;

"I want you to know Andy. We haven't got much time so I need to get this all out in one go or else I can't do it" he said now looking at her, Andy noted the pleading in his voice and slowly nodded. This was his story to tell and she would listen for as long as it took.

FLASHBACK

It had been three years since the death of his niece and for three years Sam and the rest of his family watched as his sister fell apart; there was nothing they could do. Since Samantha passed away from cancer, Sarah had pushed everyone away and fell into what he would call a closed off area of life. Her marriage was falling apart, she was on the verge of losing her job and every time her family tried to help in anyway she'd scream at them and push them all away.

Sam was in pieces, he had no idea how to help his sister; he had tried a few shrinks that he knew with being on the force but even they never for past the front porch. As time went on though Sam knew that something had to change, he just never thought that it would be his life changing;

"Come on Sarah, you need to move on with your life. Sammy would never have wanted you to give up; she would want you too keep going. Right now she's probably watching you and wondering why if you loved her so much, would you just give up on life. She's probably made a new wish by now and that wish is probably for her mum to be the strong person that we all know she is and live her life as best she can" Sam yelled he knew he shouldn't but he just couldn't help himself. Sarah though seemed to respond to his raised voice as she looked at her brother.

What Sam seen though shocked him to the bone, never did he think that he'd see cold and emptiness in his sister's eyes. And just when he thought that was a shock his sister shocked him even more, she exploded in anger:

"How dare you stand there and say that Sammy would want this or Sammy would want that! You never gave her the one thing that she wanted even at the end" she yelled as everyone else in the room watched in silence as the two siblings clashed. Sam was utterly confused by his sister's statement, he didn't have a clue as too what she was talking about but before he could even say a word Sarah starting again "Yeah that's right her favorite person in the world let her down. You know what Sam just go, get the hell out and don't ever come back!" And with that Sarah stormed past him and left the room.

Sam's world came to an utter stop, his one and only sister wanted nothing to do with him and he knew he would never get her to change her mind.

END OF FLASHBACK

By the time Sam had finished talking Andy had tears streaming down her face, Sam pulled on her hand to gain her attention. He gentley wiped away the tears with his thumbs before pushing himself up off the chair and walking away, he just needed a few minutes alone. Andy seemed to know what he was wanting as she never even went after him, she sat in silence thinking over what Sam had just told her "no wonder he didn't want anyone to know" she thought to herself. Gaining her composure she knew she only had about five minutes to get ready for their next performance, as she made where way to the clothes area she spotted Sarah watching her. Giving her a small smile in passing a thought suddenly came to mind, how did Sarah know now that Sam had no clue as to what too what Sammy's wish was. That was something she was going to find out.

As the night wore on things were starting to come to an end for what had been a great night, sure things had went totally different for Sam and Andy but neither of them were complaining. Neither of them knew how or what the future would hold but they would take on whatever was thrown at them as best they could.

As Superintendent Peck took too the stage, Andy ran a hand over her outfit; she would never be seen in a leather all-in-one suit and red high heels ever but for this she had too. Plus her blonde, curly wig completed the outfit, this would be the only time she would ever be a blonde.

Everyone fell into silence as Superintendent Peck finished up her speech;

"Now please welcome back onto the stage the Officers of Fifteenth Division" She yelled out in a happy tone as everyone in the audience including Sarah clapped and cheered. The lights went slightly dim as everyone made their way on stage, Sam had his back slightly turned but could still make out Andy. He was sure the room had just went up one hundred degrees with her in that outfit!

Sam - I've got chills they're.

multiplying

And I'm losing control

Cause the power your.

It's electrifying

Andy - You better shape up 'cause

Oh, oh, oh honey

Oh, oh, oh honey

The one I need

(the one I need)

Oh yes indeed

(yes indeed)

As 15th Division put on their routine once again the whole place was screaming with cheers and whistle but no-one could take their eyes off Sam and Andy. It wasn't obvious to the crowd but to their friend's and Sarah they weren't hiding to anyone that they were together as a couple.

Andy - If you're filled with

affection

You're to shy to convey

Meditate my direction

Feel you're way

Sam - I better shape up, 'cause

you need a man

Andy - I need a man who can keep

me satisfied

As the song came to an end everyone was exhausted but wearing huge smiles on their faces.

Andy however couldn't help herself and she gave Sam a passionate kiss in front of everyone to which Sam didn't complain about. Cat calls and whistles could be heard around the room but it was Jerry's mumbling off "get a room" that had everyone in fits of laughter as they left the stage.

Everyone was buzzing with excitement; this must have been the best night they have had for a while and they didn't realize how much emotion they would actually feel.

The night was drawing too a close and Andy found herself sitting in the corner watching everyone up dancing to the disco that had started. She spotted Gail, Noelle, Zoe, Sue and Traci all up dancing with some of the kids from the Foundation and the guys were happy sitting around the table laughing and drinking beers;

"You really love him don't you" came Sarah's voice from behind Andy which made her jump. It was more of a statement than a question as Sarah took a seat next too her.

Andy looked at Sam and answered without any hesitation;

"Yeah I do...it's weird cause I never thought I could love someone so much in just under a month of knowing them" she said honestly, still to look away from Sam.

Sarah nodded and smiled as she watched Andy stare at her brother. She could tell within the few hours that she had been here that they were more than just good friend's and that became clear with Sam's use of "girlfriend" earlier;

"Sam has never been one to open up and I seemed to have made that a lot worse a few years ago. Back then I was a mess and I was taking my grief, sadness and anger out on all the people I love. He's probably already told you what happened and that's how I know you will be around for a very long time" Sarah said honestly as Andy turned to look at her but it was obvious that Sarah hadn't finished talking "His last solid relationship ended when Sammy died, his girlfriend was a right bitch, couldn't put up with Sam grieving for his niece so she walked. That and myself causing him all that pain probably gave him the trust issues that he has but with you...he's different, can trust you with anything and for that I'm very grateful" and with that Sarah gave Andy a quick hug and walked away, leaving behind a speechless Andy.

Thinking over what Sarah had said Andy decided that it was time for everyone to move on, sure the hurt and sadness would always be there but it was now time for a new sort of normal.

Everyone deserved to be happy even after such a tragedy.

Smiling she rushed back stage and grabbed a few microphones before heading down to the dance floor.

Everyone looked at her funny even the guys but it some became evident what was going on, their final song was going to be sung with them around everyone; the way it should be;

Sam/Andy - We go together like

As the song neared to a close the group of friend's came together including Sarah, as everyone around them kept dancing. While up on stage photos on the big screen were shown as a slide show, kids past and present who wishes had come true thanks to the Make A Wish Foundation.

All - We're for each other like

As the song finished fireworks could be heard going off to make the end of a fabulous event and evening. Inside cheers could be heard all around the arena and the final photo to be shown was of Sammy with her favourite Uncle in the world. She was all dressed in pink; because every girl is pretty in pink, right!
