A week later
Andy ran straight into the hospital, not stopping. She was having a girl's night with Gail, Marlo, Cole and Traci and Noelle when she got the phone call.
Sam had been injured, he was hurt, and from the moment she got that phone call, her heart stopped.
Oliver and Frank saw Andy straight away, and Oliver walked up to her and took Andy in his arms.
Andy cried for a few minutes and Oliver just held her, trying not to cry himself.
Andy let go of Oliver, and looked around, everyone was there.
Traci, Gail, Noelle, Marlo and Cole all came in together a couple of minutes later.
Marie was sitting next to Luke, rolling her eyes.
Luke got up and went over to Andy and hugged her tightly.
When he let go of her, Andy took a breath.
"What happened?" Andy demanded to know.
Frank came up next to her.
"He was working on a case with Cross, and a suspect got away, Sam went after him, and he got shot in the leg", Frank told Andy carefully.
Andy looked straight at Marie, who was just giving Andy an evil glare.
Andy walked up to Marie and pointed her finger to her.
"You were supposed to have his back! You were his partner!" Andy snapped at her.
Marie got up and stood right in front of Andy.
"Well, if you guys weren't having a girl's night, maybe we would have had more people around!" Marie snapped back at her.
Andy went right into Maries face, but Oliver got in-between the both of them.
He took Andy away and took her hands.
"He's okay Andy, he is fine", Oliver tired to reassure her.
Andy shook her head and more tears came out.
Oliver closed his eyes and hugged her.
The doctor came out and looked around.
"Mrs. McNally-Swarek?" the doctor asked looking around.
Andy slowly made her way over to the doctor.
Traci and Oliver stood by her, Oliver taking one hand, and Traci taking the other.
"Your husband had to have surgery, to remove the rest of the bullet lodged in his arm", the doctor carefully said.
Andy nearly broke down when she heard that, but Traci and Oliver held onto her tight.
"He's okay Mrs. McNally-Swarek, we got the rest of the bullet out and he is in recovery", the doctor softly said.
That made Andy break down and cry.
"When can she go see her husband?" Traci asked the doctor carefully.
The doctor smiled softly at Traci.
"She can go now", the doctor softly said to Traci.
Andy was frozen for a moment, wouldn't move.
Oliver put his hand on her back and she turned around.
"Go", he said nodding towards the doctor waiting for Andy.
Andy closed her eyes and nodded her head.
Andy walked beside the doctor, not really listening to what he was saying to her, her mind was on the kids.
The doctor stopped in front of the room Sam was in and let Andy go in by alone.
Andy looked at Sam for a moment, not moving.
Sam opened his eyes and saw Andy, looking scared.
He smiled as best as he could to her.
He moved his arm and motioned her to come over to him and that's all it took.
Andy ran straight to his bed, on his good side, and put the rail down, jumped on the bed softly and put her arms around Sam as best she could, without hurting him.
Sam sighed and closed his eyes and wrapped his good arm around Andy as best he could.
"I'm okay", Sam whispered to her.
Andy looked up at him teary eyed and Sam couldn't take it.
He carefully lifted her up onto his lap and kissed her deeply.
He groaned and rested his head against hers for a moment.
He moved some hair out of her face and kissed her again.
"I'm okay", he said to her once again.
Andy shook her head, letting more tears fall down her face.
Sam stopped her as best he could with one arm and moved her to his good side.
Andy rested her head on Sam's shoulder and sighed.
"The kids okay?" Sam asked her.
Andy looked up at Sam and shook her head which made Sam raise an eyebrow at her.
"You are in hospital, had surgery, in pain and you are worried about the kids", Andy said in an upset voice shaking her head.
Sam grinned at her and kissed her again.
"I yelled at Marie", Andy confessed which made Sam raise an eyebrow at her again and Andy roll her eyes and shake her head.
"I heard about you ran here, and she said something about it being my fault because we had girls night", she said shaking her head and more tears coming out.
Sam closed his eyes and brought Andy to his lap again.
He took his good arm and put it on her face.
"It's not your fault, it's not anyone's fault", Sam said resting his head against hers one more time.
Sam sighed at the sight of Andy crying again. She had been crying way too much for his liking the past few months.
Andy got off him and went and lay down on his good side, tracing his arm where he got shot with her fingers softly.
"I was chasing a suspect, I drew my gun, but he got me while I shot him", Sam said.
Andy shook her head, she knew this case was important to him, she just didn't know why.
"Sam", she said shaking her head.
Sam closed his eyes for a moment. He knew he had to tell her.
"The guy I chased after, he is from my past, well my families past", he admitted softly.
Andy looked at him for a moment, waiting for Sam to continue.
Sam took a deep breath.
"I told you about Sarah getting attacked when she was 13", he said looking at Andy.
Andy nodded her head slowly.
"I think this guy was one of the guys", he admitted.
"I have no proof, it's just a gut feeling", he said moving hair out of Andy's face again.
Andy sat up and kissed Sam softly on the lips, which made him groan softly and her smirk.
"Tease", he said in a breathless voice to Andy which made her laugh and shake her head.
"You and me are a team, you have my back I have yours", Andy said softly.
Sam looked at her confused for a moment and Andy rolled her eyes.
"Tell me next time, I don't want to be left in the dark again", she said shaking her head.
Sam closed his eyes and grabbed her one more time and put her on his lap once again. All Sam could do was smile and nod his head at her.
Andy moved off him when she heard the door open.
Daniel and Gracie came in with Oliver and Traci.
Sam smiled at his kids, and helped Oliver put Gracie on his lap, while Daniel sat next to Andy.
Gracie looked at Sam's sore shoulder.
"Ouches", Gracie said as she got comfy on Sam's chest.
Daniel picked up boo and handed him to Sam, which made Sam laugh.
Andy got off the bed and put Daniel on Sam's good side.
Maier came in and rolled her eyes at the sight in front of her.
"Cross", Sam said in a warning tone.
"We got him", was all Marie said to him.
Sam smiled and nodded his head.
"I'm sorry you got hurt, but maybe next time you will be more careful", Marie said as she left the room.
Sam rolled his eyes and widened them at the same time when he noticed Andy get up and walk to the door.
Oliver went to stop her, but noticed she was shaking, so he stepped away for a moment.
"I am not letting her get away with what she just said, no way", she said shaking her head.
Oliver sighed and looked over at Sam, who had his eyes closed.
He motioned for Traci and Oliver to take the kids outside and they both nodded their heads and took both of the kids and boo outside.
Andy stayed frozen in the spot, didn't move.
"Andy", Sam said softy but Andy wouldn't move.
"Don't make me up get", Sam said.
Andy turned around and looked at him for a moment, watching him nod his head at her.
Andy slowly made her way over to Sam, shaking her head.
Sam reached for her arm.
"Don't do it, don't cry", he said to her bringing her up to the bed again and wiping her tears away once again.
"Your okay", she said as Sam pulled her closer to him.
"I am", he said to Andy pulling her closer to him once again.
They laid there for a few minutes, not saying anything to each other, just being with each other was enough for them right now.
A week later, Sam was out of hospital and on leave for a week, just to make sure everything with his arm was back to normal.
The suspect that Sam thought had something to do with Sarah's attack wasn't to do with his sister's attack, which made Sam feel bad.
Andy just dropped the kids off at daycare for the day and came back home, she didn't start work until Sam started back, and Frank had given her the time off to make sure Sam was really alright.
Sam was still in bed when Andy got home, he was getting frustrated because he couldn't do much, and his arm was still healing.
Sam didn't like not helping with the kids, or helping Andy with house work or not working, he didn't like this at all.
Andy quietly went into the bedroom when she got back; she knew Sam wasn't handling being on rest, because that just wasn't his thing.
Andy wasn't handling him being injured, at least when she got shot, it hit her vest, so she was alright.
But Sam got hit in the arm; he had to have surgery to remove a bullet, so she understood why he was getting so frustrated.
Sam saw her coming into the bedroom and smiled softly at her and patted t he bed, telling her to come over to him.
Andy slowly made her way over to Sam and pulled him over to her and hugged him as tight as he could without hurting him.
Sam sighed closed his eyes and moved her so Andy was on top of him.
Sam moved some hair out of her face and looked at her for a moment.
"I'm sorry I'm moody", he said shaking his head at her.
Andy shook her head at Sam, who made him confused and raise an eyebrow at her and she rolled her eyes.
Andy kissed his forehead softly and Sam sighed.
"It's okay I understand", Andy said softly to Sam and all he could do was nod his head.
Andy looked over at his injured arm and leaned over and kissed it softly which made Sam groan.
Andy looked at Sam and smiled at him and hopped off him, and helped Sam off the bed.
They walked slowly to the bathroom together and Andy turned the shower on and helped Sam into the shower with her.
Sam sighed and pushed Andy against the wall which made her groan at his touch.
She didn't want to hurt him that was the last thing she wanted to do.
Sam came closer to her and kissed her neck and Andy sighed at his touch.
"I don't want to hurt you", she said breathlessly to him.
Sam shook his head and kissed her more.
They finished in the shower and he took her hand and took her to the bed room.
Sam gently pushed her on the bed, and Andy flipped them over so she was on top and pulled the covers over them.
An hour later, Sam was on top of Andy, breathing heavily.
He leaned down towards her and brushed his nose against hers.
"Thank you", he said to Andy and she looked at him confused.
Sam rolled his eyes and Andy giggled softly.
"I love you", Sam said to Andy.
Andy closed her eyes and sighed.
She opened them up and kissed Sam.
"I love you too", she said quietly to him.
Sam rolled off her and brought her to his good side and they both went back to sleep.
