A/N: Thank you! Thank you! Thank you so much for the reviews, favorites, and follows! I will update as much as possible but I am a college student so bear with me, but I promise I'll finish it!
Enjoy Chapter 2!
"Officer Swarek's family?" the doctor called as he entered the waiting room. Traci and Andy both stood as Oliver came rushing back with the coffee. All the other officers stepped forward as well. The doctor seems a surprised but just nods in understanding. This isn't his first time dealing with an officer being shot and the whole division being present.
"Officer Swarek survived surgery. The bullet was a through and through. We were able to stop the bleeding. Whoever immediately applied pressure to the wound more than likely saved his life." The doctor was looking at Andy as he said this and Andy looked down. It was then that she realized she still had Sam's blood on the front of her uniform. "Officer Swarek will be in a medically induced coma for the rest of tonight and tomorrow morning to allow his body to begin healing. We will wake him up in the afternoon." Traci asked if he could have visitors, knowing Andy would not leave and would be more comfortable in the room with Sam. "Yes, but only one at a time. Even though Officer Swarek is in a coma he can still hear subconsciously so talk to him and give him a reason to fight to heal." Andy still had not said a word when she realized the doctor was done and walking away. "Doctor?" The doctor stopped and turned towards her. "Can I stay all night with him?" The doctor nods and walks off.
Traci wraps Andy in a hug to keep her from collapsing. Between Traci and Oliver they get her to sit down. A nurse tells them she will come get them as soon as Sam is in a room. Oliver thanks her and squats down in front of Andy, but she refuses to look at him. She can still fell tears cascading down her cheeks. She feels guilty and doesn't want Oliver to pick up on it, but he does anyways. "Andy." Andy still refuses to look at him. "McNally look at me." Oliver pulls the dad voice on her and Andy finally looks up.
"Andy, he is going to be ok. I'll go by your place and get some things. Just tell me what you need and where it is." Gail walks up then. She tells Oliver she knows where everything is and she would go with him. Oliver nods and gives the girls a minute. Gail leans down and hugs Andy. "Andy, he'll be ok. I know you still love him and he loves you. I know Nick was a good friend and he was convenient because of being under. I don't blame you. I'm here for you and everything is going to be ok." Andy just cries that much harder. She never expected Gail to forgive her. Traci nods at Gail. "I'll stay until they let her in." Gail nods and runs to catch up with Oliver. She never once saw Nick standing there listening.
Traci sits down next to Andy and puts her arm around her. "She's right you know. Everybody at the station knew you and Sam were just trying to get back at the other. Everybody knows how much you two still love each other." Andy just nods. She can't seem to stop the tears. Nick walks up and asks if he can talk to Andy. Traci gives Andy a hug and gets up to give them as much privacy as a waiting room allows. Andy doesn't know what she's going to say to him but she knows that she will never love Nick the way she loves Sam.
