One year later
Sam was at Gracie's bedroom door, watching her for a moment, sitting on her bed, with a book in her hands just looking at the pictures.
Sam smiled softly when Gracie looked up at him.
"Book Daddy", she said pointing to the book.
Sam smiled and nodded his head and walked into her bedroom.
He sat on the bed with her and Gracie cuddled up to him while he started reading the book to her.
Halfway through the fourth page of the book, Sam looked over at Gracie who was yawning.
He smiled at her softly and he put the book down and rolled his eyes when Gracie was shaking her head at him.
"Some things never change", he mumbled as he bent down and kissed her forehead.
"Sleep sweetie", he mumbled to her and grinned at her when she kept shaking her head at him.
Gracie closed her eyes and yawned and Sam smiled softly at her and kissed her again.
"Mummy", she said in a soft voice.
Sam smiled at his daughter, no matter what she was doing, he found her adorable, even if she was tried, grumpy or happy, and he couldn't help it.
"Mummy is still at work sweetie, she will come and see you when she's home", he promised her as he kissed her again.
"Okay daddy", Gracie said as he closed her eyes again.
Once again, Sam bent down and kissed her forehead one more time.
"Goodnight sweetie, daddy loves you", he mumbled to her and shook his head as she shook her head at him again.
He turned the bed lamp on and left the room and left the door halfway open.
Sam went to check on Daniel, and smiled as he saw Daniel trying to count from one to ten.
"One, two, four, eight", he heard Daniel say and he laughed softly as he walked into his bedroom.
"Almost got it buddy", he said as Daniel crawled onto Sam's lap.
Sam kissed Daniel on his head and Daniel hugged him tightly.
"Daddy school tomorrow?" Daniel said excitedly.
Sam grinned at his son and winked at him.
Daniel was going to the nursery still, but he was in the older group now, and he loved it there.
He had friends and loved his teachers, they were getting him ready for prep the following year, the teachers were trying to teach him things, in small doses of course, after all he was only four.
Daniel got off Sam's lap and crawled into his bed.
Sam smirked as Daniel picked up boo and hugged him and went and lay in his bed.
"Boo is staying here tomorrow buddy", Sam said to Daniel and smirked at him when Daniel kept shaking his head saying no.
"You don't want to lose him, boo needs to stay", Sam tried one more time.
Daniel nodded his head to Sam and Sam smiled at him.
"Love you daddy", Daniel said in a sleepy voice.
Sam smiled leaned over the bed and ruffled his son's hair.
"Love you too buddy, go to sleep, mummy will be here soon and she will come and say goodnight to you", Sam promised his son and smiled as Daniel nodded his head and closed his eyes.
"Goodnight buddy", Sam mumbled as he kissed the top of Daniel's head.
Sam left the room and smiled as he heard the front door open.
Sam walked downstairs and frowned at the expression on Andy's face.
He made his way over to her slowly and took the bag off her brought her to him and hugged her tightly.
Sam took her hand and walked her into the lounge room and made her sit down.
"Sam I have to say goodnight to the kids", she said in an upset tone.
Sam closed his eyes and sighed and nodded his head and Andy went upstairs and went into Gracie's room first.
Sam watched her from the doorframe.
"Goodnight sweet heart, mummy loves you", she said as she kissed Gracie's head.
Sam smiled softly at this.
Sam's phone rang and he noticed it was Oliver.
He watched as Andy went into Daniel's room and answered the call.
"Sammy, sorry it's late", Oliver said to Sam.
Sam walked downstairs.
"No problem Andy is just saying goodnight to the kids", Sam explained.
"Yeah listens Sammy, about Andy", Oliver said while sighing.
Oliver took a deep breath.
Sam sat on the couch in the lounge room waiting for Oliver to continue.
"We got called to a domestic, it was bad Sammy", Oliver sighed.
"We went into the house, the mum was screaming at the son, who was Daniel's age", Oliver explained.
"Andy went and tried to talk to her, you know calm her down, but the mum wouldn't have it", Oliver continued.
Sam closed his eyes and sighed.
"The kids are with child services for now, but it hit Andy pretty badly", Oliver said.
"she kept saying that she hopes she doesn't turn out like her mum, that she hopes she will always be a great mum , that she hopes that you trust her instincts with the kids and that she hopes you never leave", Oliver said quietly.
Sam sighed and closed his eyes and let out a breath he was holding.
"It hit her bad Sam, there was a little girl too, a bit younger than Gracie, but she wouldn't let go of Andy, and screamed the house down when Andy had to go", Oliver continued.
Sam looked up and saw Andy coming down the stairs and nodded and winked at her.
"Thanks Ollie, I better goes", Sam said.
"No problem Sammy, ", Oliver said and hanged up the phone.
Andy came to Sam running and jumped on him and hugged him tightly.
"He told you didn't him", she mumbled into his chest.
Sam sighed and rubbed her back up and down and nodded his head.
Andy looked up at him and kissed him softly on the lips.
The kiss got pretty heated pretty quickly and Sam groaned at Andy which made her smirk at him.
Sam smirked back at her and stood up and carried her up the stairs.
They got to their bedroom and he genteel put her on the bed and walked over to the door and closed it and smirked at the pout she was giving up.
He crawled up to her on the bed and started undoing her shirt and threw it on the ground and attacked her neck, which made Andy moan.
Andy pulled off his shirt and threw it on the ground and attacked the zipper on his jeans.
Sam groaned and pulled the covers over them.
An hour later, Andy was on top of Sam, breathing heavily while Sam was rubbing his hand up and down her back.
Andy sighed and leaned down to him and he kissed her softly on the lips.
"Those kids, were innocent Sam, innocent kids, and that mum", Andy said shaking her head.
Sam waited for her to continue, still rubbing his hands up and down her back.
Andy just shook her head and hopped off Sam and lay next to him.
Sam rolled on his side and played with Andy's hair.
"Did you ever think we would be together, like have a family?" Andy asked Sam.
Sam looked at her for a moment, confused.
"You mean us together, kids, and stuff? Sam asked her.
Andy smiled and nodded her head.
Sam grinned and nodded his head at her.
"Yep, had it all planned McNally, since the day you knocked me over, tackled m e and tried to kiss me", he said and grinned when she smacked him on the chest.
Sam looked at her for a moment, smiled and nodded his head.
"Yeah I did", he said in a serious tone.
Andy just stared at him for a moment.
Sam let out a breath.
"I knew that I was in trouble with my feelings for you, a while ago, when you were with Luke", Sam said looking at Andy.
Andy let out a breath and went back on top of him.
Sam let out a breath and moved some hair out of her face.
"Sorry, I'm sorry Sam", Andy said shaking her head at him.
Sam looked at her, eyebrows raised and she shook her head at him.
"Just, all that time, you had feelings for me, I was blind", she said shaking her head.
Sam looked down at their hands joined together, and played around with her wedding ring.
He looked up to her for a moment and winked at her, still playing with her rings.
"It doesn't matter Andy", he said to her softly.
"You weren't to know, how deep my feelings for you went", he said to her softly.
"I'm good at hiding my feelings, not letting them show", Sam said to Andy and grinned at her as she nodded her head in agreement.
"It's just how I learned how to deal with things", Sam said as he played with more of Andy's hair.
Andy smiled and nodded her head, knowing this was true.
She leaned down and kissed him softly on his lips, which made Sam groan.
He flipped them over, so he was on top.
Andy laughed softly at him.
"Really Sam, again", she said shaking her head at him.
Sam looked at her, eyebrows raised.
"Not my fault I'm married to a beautiful woman who I can't keep my hands off", he mumbled as he put the covers over them one more time.
Half an hour later, Sam's on top of Andy, both breathing heavily.
Sam kissed her softly on the lips and Andy moaned when he hopped off her and brought her to his side.
Sam looked at the time and noticed it was getting late.
"We should sleep", he said mumbling to her as he kissed her lips and she giggled at him and closed her eyes.
Sam woke up at 7 am by the bedroom door opening.
He grinned as the door opened, knowing exactly who it was.
Sam sat up and watched Gracie walk over to him.
She got up on the bed and he grinned and brought her over to him.
"Morning sweetie", he mumbled to her.
"Daddy", she mumbled into his chest in a sleepy voice.
Sam shook his head and moved her off him for a moment and put some pants and a shirt on quickly and got out of the bed and rolled his eyes at the face Gracie was giving him.
"Come on", he said walking to the door and smirked when Gracie followed him out of the bedroom.
Once they were out of the bedroom, Sam picked Gracie up and kissed her on the forehead and went to check on Daniel.
Daniel was awake playing with his toys on his bed.
Sam put Gracie on the floor and walked over to Daniel and kissed his head.
"Morning buddy", he mumbled to his son.
Daniel hugged Sam tightly and Sam let out a breath he was holding.
Gracie walked over to Sam and Daniel and tapped on Sam's leg.
"Daddy me hungry", she said in a sleepy voice.
Sam rolled his eyes and took the kids downstairs.
He turned on the TV and smiled as the kids sat down watching cartoons.
The kids ate breakfast and Andy woke up and came downstairs and kissed both of the kid's heads and walked over to Sam and kissed him softly on the lips.
She sat up on the bench while Sam made them coffee.
He came up to her and kissed her softly on the head.
"How did you sleep', he mumbled against her head.
Andy grinned.
"Great when someone let me fall asleep", she said grinning at Sam.
Sam grinned back and winked at her.
"Sorry, won't happen again", he said winking at her which made Andy roll her eyes at him.
They got ready for work and dropped the kids to the nursery.
They walked outside hand in hand and Sam gently pushed her against the truck door.
"Stuff work, let's go home, make another little one", he said mumbling to her as he attacked her neck with kisses.
Andy smiled and rolled her eyes at him.
"Sorry Sam, but we need the money", she said winking at him.
Sam groaned and opened the truck door for her.
They got to the division and Sam winked at her as he put the truck in park.
They walked out of the car park hand in hand.
They stopped in front of Andy's lockers room and he kissed her softly on the lips.
They got home that night, and the kids were asleep, and they were in bed, just talking.
Sam looked over at Andy, and winked at her, which made her a bit confused.
He brought her over to him, and placed her on his lap.
"Thank you, for giving me another chance, making me a dad, thank you", he said to her softly.
Andy rolled her eyes at him.
"I think you had some part of making those kids too Sam", she said and laughed as he put her down on the bed and started tickling her.
"Sam, stop", Andy said giggling which made Sam wink and grin at her.
Andy leaned up against him and kissed him softly on his lips.
"You know, even though we have been through a hell of a lot, it's all kind of worth it, it isn't it", Andy said looking at Sam.
Sam looked at her and smiled and winked.
He lay down on the bed and brought her to his side.
"It definitely is, it's all worth it in the end", he said to her as he kissed her forehead and turned off the lamp.
