First I just want to say sorry for not updating in so long. Work has been crazy. I work in retail so with the holiday season it CRAZY!
I'm not sure when I will be able to update again. But just in case Happy Holidays and a happy new year.
This chapter is rather short but I felt bad for leaving you guys hanging for so long so this is more of a filler.
Andy felt so embarrassed running straight into him. He had his hands on her shoulder steadying her.
"You okay Andy?"
"Umm. Yeah just looking for something." She said looking at everyone else but not at him.
"Can I help? What are you looking for?" He asked bending his knees to try to catch her eyes.
"Yo… umm my necklace." She said as Sam put his hand into his pants pocket.
"Okay, what does it look like?" He asked waiting for her to look away to pull it out of his pocket. And just as she looked away he pulled out into view.
"Its umm. Its umm a ri-" She stoped mid-sentence when she saw it between his fingers. Tears started to well up in her eyes
"Can we talk?" He asked letting a sigh out.
All Andy could do was nod her head. Sam took her hand and walked her outside.
Traci ran over to Oliver who was with the group of Rookies "Did you see that?"
"See what Nash?"
"Andy bumped into Sam looking for something. Then Sam pulled something out his pocket then they went outside."
"She was looking for her necklace." Gail piped in that little information.
"So what are they doing outside?" Dov asked.
"I hope they are getting their heads out of their asses." Fiona said walked towards an outside door to see if she can overhear something.
"So you kept the ring?" He asked her once they were outside.
Andy just nodded.
"You wear it as a necklace?"
She nodded again.
"Why?"
She just shrugged not knowing what to tell him.
"Damn it. Andy talk to me." He said looking into her eyes. "Please." He pleaded with her.
"What do you want me to say Sam? Why what? Why I kept the ring? Why I wear it as a necklace?"
"Yes and more."
"I kept it because it's from you and only meant for me. I wear it because it's close to my heart." She told him looking up at the night sky.
"Why after the way I treated you the last time we actually spoke?"
"Because I told myself I wasn't going to move on. Because there isn't anyone else out there for me. Even if that means you moving on and me being single forever." After she told him that, she ran to the water fountain out on the lawn.
"What just happened?" Oliver asked trying to see.
Fiona and Nick turned around to see everyone behind them trying to see what they have all been waiting for.
"Okay everyone back to the dance floor and lets let them figure this out." Nick said forcing everyone back.
There was a bunch of groans.
Xavier, Marlo, Nick, Fiona, Oliver and the rest of the Rookies all shared a small smile.
When Sam made his way to the water fountain he was breathless as to how beautiful Andy looked. Her back was to him but it was still beautiful.
Andy became aware of Sam presence and stiffed just enough for him to see.
Sam walk up next to her but still left space between them. "You still love me after everything?"
Andy just nodded not trusting her voice.
"Then let's be 'us' again."
"Sam it's not that easy. We have hurt each other so much. It's not the same anymore."
"I know," He paused trying to find the right words. "Let's be a new 'us'. We work on it together."
"And how are we going to do that with you in St. Catherine miles away?"
"We'll work at it. I don't care I just want you."
Andy just nodded and the next thing she knew she was in his arms.
Back at the wedding party everyone was excited at what they had just seen
"Finally!" Oliver yelled picking up his wife.
"Looks like your little wish worked Mrs. Collins" Nick whispered into Fiona's ear.
"I love you." Sam whispered into her hair. "I've missed you too."
"Oh Sam! Me too." She sobbed into his shoulder.
After a few minutes of just holding each other Sam pulled back. "Now about this ring."
"You're not proposing not now!" She hurried out looking horrified.
"No but I'd like to keep this ring until I do. I have another ring to give you if you want one to wear."
"How'd you know I'd agree to a new 'us'?"
"A man can hope." He said pulling out another ring. His Class ring. "You can wear this until I give you this." He said moving to put it on her.
"How are they going to make this work miles apart?" Chloe asked.
"They won't be miles apart for much longer." Frank said.
Every eye turned to him.
"I just got paper work. He's transferring back."
Once again everyone cheered.
