She wiped her sweaty palms on the dark jeans. She sighed rethinking this whole thing. Was she really going to do this? Olivia Benson had never been one for being direct. Maybe its time to make an exception, she thought to herself. She closed her eyes and breathed out through her nose and raised her hand to finally knock at the wooden door.

"One sec!"

A muffled warm voice called from the other side of the door. Oliva steeled herself to see the other woman. The door swung open to reveal a bright smiling face that in turn made Olivia herself smile.

"Hey Liv! Sorry 'bout this," she motioned to her unusual attire, "you caught me off guard I wasn't expecting anyone. What are you doing here?"

She said this not in an unpleasant way but if she was happy for the company of the older detective. Amanda's southern voice filled with hospitality. Her hair hung in long blonde waves down her back, she wore a black robe over what Olivia could tell was black lace that peeked out and left little to her overactive imagination. She smiled waiting for Olivia to reply.

"Uhm, I just-"

She stammered out nothing as Amanda started to look confused as Olivia couldn't produce an answer. Olivia couldn't take it anymore and leaned in to the seductive woman, as Amanda opened her eyes wide out of shock, Olivia closed hers as her soft lips touched the other womans. Amandas red lips conformed to Olivias, she brought her hand to the older woman's face and gently stroked her. A soft sigh emitted from Olivia as she felt the touch from Amanda. Olivia pulled her in closer and their lips parted momentarily and Amanda whispered rather harshly,

"Wake up!"

Detective Benson woke up in the cribs to an annoyed partner, Nick Amaro,

"Wake up Liv, Cragen said he needs to talk to us."

Amaro walked back to the squad room leaving Benson to wake up and get ready alone. Oliva quickly roused herself while making her way down stairs. She silently cursed herself for having another dream about the sultry blonde she worked with. It had been going on for the last month, having dreams where she and Amanda touched, kissed and occasionally more. The feeling was overwhelming. She thought about her all the time, and often got distracted with these thoughts of her. Shaking off the remanence of sleep she walked into the squad room to find everyone else already there and seated as well.

"Finally," chuckled the blonde. "Took you long enough."

Amanda's sweet voice tinged with a southern had a strong effect on her and Benson blushed hopeing it went unnoticed.

"Ok everyone pay attention." Cragen said distracting Olivia, she turned to the captain grateful to have an excuse to look away from Amanda.

"We just got a call about a triple homicide on the upper east side. Benson, Rollins I want you to go."

Olivia looked up in surprise.

"Captain, what about Amaro and I?"

"Amaro has something else for right now," the captain exchanged glances with the other man. It was no secret that Nick and his wife were having problems, but no one thought it was bad enough to take him away from work. Amanda just shrugged at the odd change in partners.

"Well you comin' Benson?" Amanda said getting up from her seat and beginning to walk out.

"They'll brief you when you get there." Cragen said, handing them a slip of paper with an address on it. Olivia left with the other woman optimistic that maybe something good would come of this.
