Sam's talk
Sam sat quietly in frank's office for a moment, sitting thinking about everything that had happened the last day.
Frank sat watching his friend for a moment, he knew something was wrong, but he also knew not to push Sam.
"Monica's back in town, she's working at the nursery where the kids are, and I know something is going on", Sam said eventually.
Frank's eyes went wide.
"Monica, as in", Frank started to say.
Sam nodded his head.
He stood up for a moment, turned his head away, because he felt tears starting.
Frank noticed this straight away and didn't like it one bit.
"What's happened Sam?" Frank asked.
Sam shook his head.
"Daniel spilt some milk yesterday morning, I went to clean up and to make sure he's okay, he freaked out on me Frank", Sam said shaking his head.
Frank was now worried.
"Freaked out on you, how?" Frank asked carefully.
Sam sat down again.
Sam remembered Daniel's face, how scared his son looked at him.
"He just kept repeating himself to me, no smacking daddy", Sam said looking straight in the eyes.
"He was scared, scared of me Frank", Sam said shaking his head.
"I've never yelled at him, let alone smack him, he's two, I wouldn't", Sam said shaking his head.
Frank didn't know what to say.
He got out his phone, and rang Noelle.
When he hung up with Noelle, he turned to face Sam again.
"Where does Monica come into this?" Frank asked carefully.
Sam sighed and looked out the glass doors, noticing Andy was there.
Frank sighed. He knew these two were a team at work and at home.
Sam looked over at frank and frank nodded.
Sam nodded back a got up and went to get Andy.
Andy was talking to Gail and nick when he came out of the office.
Nick knew something was wrong, but knew not to pressure Andy into talking.
Andy saw Sam come out of Frank's office and she sighed.
Sam gave her a look, and she nodded and started walking up to franks office.
Nick and Gail looked at each other then looked over at Sam, who was shaking his head.
Gail walked away, while Sam went closer to Nick.
Sam knew Nick and Andy were still close and Sam trusted Nick.
"Nick, I need you to do something for me", Sam said in a quiet voice.
Nick nodded his head slowly.
Sam closed his eyes and took a deep breath.
"Whoever Andy is working with today, swap with them, and work with her for the day please", Sam said in a pleading tone.
Nick looked at Sam and realized that something serious was going on.
"Okay", Nick said nodding at Sam.
"keep an eye on her, if something happens, anything at all Nick, call me', Sam said to Nick almost giving him an evil stare.
"Okay", Nick said nodding his head.
"Thank you", Sam said nodding.
Nick nodded and smiled softly at Sam and walked away.
Sam noticed Noelle and baby Olivia comes into the division.
Olivia was almost 3 now she was getting so big.
Sam looked at Olivia and thought about Daniel and let out a breath.
Gracie was too young to understand if something was wrong.
But Daniel, he was getting growing every day that thought made Sam smile.
He walked slowly up the stairs to the office and let out a breath before he walked into the office.
Andy was pacing around the office when he walked in.
"It might not be anything, she might just be working there", Andy offered out.
Sam smiled at his wife.
Frank watched as the pair of them stared at each other for a few minutes.
Frank sighed h e didn't like this at all.
"Why are Noelle and Olivia here, what's going on, oh my god the kids", Andy said as she walked quickly to the door.
Sam sighed at this and went to grab her but she moved away quickly.
"No Sam, if they are in danger, I want them with us", Andy said shaking her head.
Sam sighed and looked over at Frank.
Andy was shaking she was scared she kept shaking her head.
Sam slowly moved her away from the door to let Noelle walk in.
"Noelle why are you here, what is going on, I have to go get them Sam, I need them with me, Andy said shaking her head more now.
Sam sat her down on the chair next to frank's desk.
Noelle sat down next to Andy, taking her hand.
"We don't know what's going on Andy", Noelle said trying to reassure her.
Andy shook her head.
"EXCATLY MY POINT, THEY ARE YOUNG AND INNOCENT, IF SHE'S HERE TO HURT THEM, I ", Andy said shaking putting her head.
Sam crouched down in front of his wife.
"Breathe', he said to her softly.
Andy looked up at him, nodding her head slowly to him.
Sam smiled and winked at her.
"Sam", she said in a shaky voice.
Sam s shook his head at her kissing her forehead.
"Breathe", he said once again.
Frank looked at his friends and to his wife.
He wasn't sure what to do.
"Bring them in Sam', Frank said to his friend.
Sam looked over at his friend Frank nodded his head.
Sam nodded to his friend and reached up and kissed Andy's forehead again.
"Grab your jacket, we will get them", he said softly to her.
Andy looked up at him, her face tear strained, tears falling down her face.
Sam sighed and wiped the tears off her face.
Sam slowly helped Andy off the seat.
"Let's go get our kids", he said softly to her.
Andy nodded.
"We should let the others know", Noelle offered.
Frank looked at his wife for a moment.
"They are going to wonder what is going on, especially Nick and Traci and Oliver", Noelle explained.
"Sam", Andy said in a shaky voice.
Sam rested his forehead against hers.
"She's right Andy, were all family here", he said softly to his wife.
Andy nodded her head.
Her phone started to ring.
She reached into her pocket to get it and noticed it was the nursery.
Her hands started to shake.
Sam slowly reached for the phone and answered it, putting it on loud speaker.
"Mrs. McNally-Sweark", the lady on the phone answered.
"It's MR. Sweark actually", Sam said as he slowly took Andy back to the chair.
"Mr. Sweark, it's Daniel, he has had an accident", the lady on the phone said.
Andy couldn't breathe she sat there shaking.
"Is he okay?" he asked slowly.
"He's fine, some kids were a bit rough with him and he tripped and has a bruise on his leg", the lady said.
Sam let out breath.
"Nurse Monica is looking at him now", the lady said.
Sam's eyes went wide.
"If it's just a bruise, why is the nurse looking at him", Sam demanded to know.
"Procedure Mr. Sweark", the lady answered back.
"He's asking for you guys Mr. Sweark, he wants to come to work with h you guys", the lady on the phone said.
Sam closed his eyes for a moment.
He looked up at Andy, who was shaking her head, and he looked up at his friends, who were also nodding their heads.
"Can I speak to him?" Sam asked carefully.
The lady got off the phone for a moment.
"Daddy", Daniel said over the phone.
Sam closed his eyes.
"Hey buddy, heard you hurt yourself", Sam said to his son.
"I want daddy", Daniel said crying.
"No crying buddy, mummy and daddy are coming to get you and Gracie', Sam promised his son.
"No smacking daddy", Daniel said to his dad.
Sam's eyes went wide and looked at Frank.
Frank nodded his head.
Frank now understood why Sam was so worried.
"Buddy, do me a favor, I want you to be a big brave boy for me, we will be there soon", Sam promised his son.
"No smacking daddy", Daniel said again.
Sam closed his eyes and let out a breath.
"No smacking buddy, Sam said.
"Mr. Sweark, we are teaching the kids about smacking, the rights and wrongs about it, please do not over think this", the lady on the phone said.
"Don't over think it, what do you mean don't over think this", Sam demanded over the phone.
"All the kids in the nursery are going through it", the lady explained.
"well I wouldn't be so worried if my son wasn't so scared', Sam snapped over the phone.
"Why do you guys have a nurse now anyway", Sam said.
"New laws Mr. Sweark", the lady on the phone replied.
Sam let out a breath.
"Your son is ready to be picked up Mr. Swerark", the lady on the other end of the line said.
"We will be there soon", Sam said ending the call.
He passed the phone over to Andy and looked at Frank and Noelle.
"Now do you understand why we are so worried", Sam snapped at his friends.
Frank closed his eyes for a moment and nodded his head.
Noelle stood up and tried to help Andy up, but she just fell on the chair.
Sam closed his eyes and went over to his wife.
"Breathe", he said softly to her again.
Andy shook her head.
"Sam", she said in a shaky voice.
"Breathe", he repeated himself.
Andy looked at Sam and started to try to calm her breathing down.
"That's it, nice and slow", he said softly to her.
Andy rested her forehead against his and let out a breath.
"I need them here Sam, I need to be with them", Andy said trying to keep calm.
Sam nodded his head and closed his eyes.
"Do you want to go home with them?" He asked her carefully.
Andy shook her head.
"We can't both go home Sam, and I need to be here with you", she said shaking her head.
Sam understood this, he really did.
He stood up slowly, bringing Andy with him.
"Let's go get them", he said to his wife slowly.
Andy nodded her head.
They walked out slowly together, hand in hand. Noelle turned and looked at her husband and sighed.
Frank motioned for her to come over to him.
She did slowly.
"They don't need this Sam, those two, that family", Noelle said shaking her head.
"I know ", Frank said hugging his wife.
Sam and Andy got to the truck and before Sam let her inside the truck, he kissed her softly on the lips and rested his head against hers.
They looked at each other for a moment and got into the truck went to the nursery and picked up their kids and took them back to the division.
Daniel wouldn't let Sam let him go, so he carried him into Frank's office, while Andy walked in with Gracie in her hands.
Andy sat down in the seat with Gracie in her hands, rocking her daughter back and forth, while Sam sat down next to her with Daniel in his arms rubbing his son's back.
Sam rubbed Daniel's legs and noticed Daniel flinch a bit.
He looked at his son for a moment.
"What's the matter buddy?" Sam asked his son.
"Ouch", Daniel said pointing to his leg.
Sam slowly pulled his son's jeans up and his eyes went wide.
He stood up, and put Daniel on the chair by himself, and rolled up his pants a bit more.
His eyes went wider when he saw the size of the bruise.
The bruise went halfway up his leg to near his knee.
Sam turned around and looked at frank.
Frank walked slowly up to Sam and Daniel.
Andy's eyes went wide when she saw the bruise.
Sam crouched down in front of his son again.
"Buddy, what happened?" he asked his son, not knowing exactly what he was going to say, considering he was only two.
Daniel shrugged his shoulders.
"Fell down", Daniel said.
"Fell down where sweetie?" Andy tried.
"The door hit me", Daniel said.
This confused Sam and Andy.
"What door buddy?" Sam asked carefully.
"Car door", Daniel said.
This confused everyone.
"What color was the car buddy?" Sam asked Daniel.
"Your car", Daniel said nodding.
"My car, you mean my truck"? Sam tried again.
Daniel shook his head.
"Your car daddy, the car with the flashy lights", Daniel said.
Sam's eyes went wide and he looked over at Frank.
Frank knelt down in front of Sam and his family.
"Do you mean a police car Daniel, one like the ones outside?" Frank asked carefully.
Daniel nodded his head.
"Do you know the person who was in this car Daniel?" Frank asked his friends son carefully.
Daniel nodded his head.
"Who was it buddying?" Sam asked.
Daniel shook his head.
"Not allowed, get smacked", Daniel said.
Sam's eyes went wide again and looked at Frank.
"No one's going to hurt you buddy, not while I am around", Sam said rubbing his sons shoulders.
Daniel nodded his head.
"Don't like him daddy, he scary", Daniel said in a sacred voice.
"Who is it buddy, who's Scary?" Sam tried again.
"HILL", Daniel said.
Sam froze.
"Is his name Hill?" Frank asked Daniel.
Daniel nodded his head.
"Mr. Hill, Officer Hill", Daniel said nodding his head.
And that right there, Made Sam's heart stop.
