Prompt: Messy.
Andy McNally was a mess.
When he said this, he didn't mean she was a slob. Because on her good days she could pick up after herself and have washing done before lunch. That was when you factor in just how much washing she had on a bad day.
(Which was usually after those she's spent 80% of her time at his place and the other 20% at the station.)
When he said this, he meant her.
She was an over-thinker. Small things made her anxious. She trusted everyone unconditionally and at times she didn't trust people enough. Andy McNally can ask for everything and give nothing, or ask for nothing and give everything. There was no in between for her.
She was flung into his life at a moment's notice and damn it if he wasn't still cleaning up the mess she made almost five years later.
The thing that got on his nerves was that Andy McNally liked messy.
For her, it meant absolutely everything was on the table and she wouldn't have to search for what she wanted. She could see it clear as day, and if she couldn't she knew that it wasn't worth it.
But him? He hated it.
For him, everything had to be neat. His home, his career, his life, his truck. It always had been. After Sarah's attack they had been kept together, everything packed neatly. No one could break, not with her to look after.
But Andy McNally brought that out in him, and no matter how much he loathed being a mess, with her, he couldn't help it.

A drabble simply because I've edited this so much that it would only get shorter and had no where to go.
Thank you!
All mistakes are mine.
