A/n: This is set around three months after Internal Affairs so it's a little bit further into an established Rolivia fic. Please read the other stories first.
Standing in her kitchen washing their dishes from dinner Olivia Benson took in the sight in her living room. Most women may have been upset by it, not getting help from their significant other but not Olivia. Simply having the blonde sitting on her couch drinking beer and yelling at the football game on the TV made her smile.
"Liv, baby, you need some help."
"No I'm almost done, who's playing?"
"I ordered the SEC Championship on my card, so its Alabama and Missouri."
"I know nothing about college football."
"Come sit down and I'll explain, the games actually in Atlanta. And if you're a good student I'll even share my beer."
"Or I could get my own."
"Nope, last one."
"You took my last beer Rollins?"
"Yeah, but you love me and think I'm utterly irresistible so it's okay."
"You're luck you're cute."
"I know."
The next morning both women made their way into work, making sure to bring breakfast for the guys. Olivia had decided anytime they got called in on a Sunday she would make it worth their while.
"Yo, Liv, why'd they call us in?"
"I have no idea Fin."
Sitting down and eating they all chuckled a little to themselves thinking this was the closest to a family meal they seemed to get anymore. Suddenly they grew quiet as the chief walked in.
"We have a case that needs reopened, the MO has been found again making it a serial rapist case. The hit came out of Atlanta, send Rollins and anyone else. I want two down there and you three stay here and work the cold case. Their plane leaves in three hours."
And with that he left as quick as he came never noticing the seething blonde detective.
"Don't I get a say in this? I don't want to go anywhere near Atlanta PD especially without you Liv. And me and Fin only have three hours before our flight leaves?"
"Now I know it isn't fair, but I can't do anything. Fin are you okay going with her?"
"Take her home, spend some time with her, swing by my place and grab my travel bag from the hall. I'll cover for you here and then you can drive us to the airport. I think she needs one of us down there that can understand and well IAB wont let you two go alone so I'll take care of her."
"Hello, still in the room."
"Just tell Fin thank you and lets go get you ready."
Unlocking the door on Amanda's apartment was harder than she ever thought but then again she had never had a tall dark sergeant nipping mercilessly at her neck while doing so before.
"Darlin if you don't let me open the door I'm going to take you right here in the hallway."
"Work quicker then, because I want you taking me on the counter again and then I'm going to fuck you in the shower."
"And we're in."
"Thank God!"
Walking through the blondes kitchen Olivia began stripping out her clothes tossing them onto the floor, sitting naked on the counter she leaned back and opened her legs in invitation to the blonde. After both women had been completely sated and the two showers it took to get them clean Amanda laid back on her bed.
"How much time until we have to leave here?"
"About thirty minutes or so, why?"
"Come here and cuddle with me, I won't have your arms around me for who knows how many days."
Without a word the older woman slid into bed and pulled the blonde onto her chest, relishing the feel of her warm breath against her cool skin. Amanda slipped into slumber but the brunette couldn't, her mind was racing. This would be their first time away from each other since they had figured out what was happening, what if the blonde ran into an ex that was prettier, smoother, younger than Olivia. Realizing at that moment how much the blonde meant to her she knew what she had to do.
"Babygirl wake up we need to get to Fin's and get you two to the airport."
Dressing silently due to the blonde's anti-morning personality both women were left with their thoughts. Olivia grabbed one of the weekend bags in the hall closet, each woman had one in the closet at both apartments.
"I'll run up to Fin's, you stay in the car so we can use the unloading zone."
"Sounds good to me."
After grabbing the mans belongings they picked him up at the station rushing to get to the gate on time. Since they didn't have long before their plane left Olivia flashed her badge to get to escort them to the gate itself. As they called for loading Fin hugged his boss with a promise to guard Amanda like his own daughter. Amanda then wrapped her arms around the taller woman's waist and began crying into her jacket. With her arms around the younger woman Olivia slid the silver band she had worn on her right hand for years off her finger. Gently taking a step back she tilted the young blonde's head to look at her. While looking Amanda in the eyes she placed the ring on her left ring finger.
"Just a reminder that I'm here waiting and that I love you with all I am."
"I could never forget I love you Liv."
With one final kiss the two detectives boarded the plane, both with a look of promise back at their boss. One of protection and care, the other with the promise of faithfulness and love.
