After numerous threats to do so Andy had finally up and gone to London to see Damien. She was eager to see how the other half lived plus she just wanted time away after the bomb scare. She stepped off the plane at Heathrow dressed down in jeans and a T-shirt, pulling her suitcase behind her while she scoped everything out. It was her first trip overseas and she had two weeks of vacation time with nothing to do...except her boyfriend, presumably.

Andy had finally made her way back to Chicago. After months of phone calls and emails and some text messages she'd set up a meeting with Kelly. Not having forgotten their little fling during the blackout. She arrived at his place just excited to see his face again, and with all sorts of thoughts he'd put in her head over those last few months. Were they all talk or were they going to follow through on their verbal foreplay?

Andy was relieved to have a fresh start. It was almost exciting, once she knew she had a job to come to, because then she got to look at apartments, views, things to do in one of the best areas in the world. She was giddy with the idea of a new life that was totally hers.

She'd gotten a cute little apartment in a building not too far from the beach and moved all her stuff in just a day ago. It was still mostly boxed up but Andy didn't care. She could see the beach from her apartment and it was all hers, that's what mattered. She was just going to finish a few things, then call Steve and see if he was off work yet.

At the moment she was in her brand-new shower, getting cleaned up. Enjoying the hot water on her skin and maybe taking a longer shower than she needed to. Of course when your boyfriend is a Navy SEAL, he could probably figure out where she was anyway.
