Friday, July 23

It was a typical cold day in NYC. Rollins and Amaro were talking next to the coffee machine when Olivia arrived coincidentally with Alex Cabot. They were both wearing heavy coats, cause it was really cold outside. Alex was carrying a Starbucks cup on he left hand, and with the other hand her briefcase. The presence of them was only noticed when Alex accidentally dropped her car keys on the floor.
- Oh crap, my keys!
Before she could say anything further, Liv caught the keys to her partner:
- I hope they haven't broken. Be careful, these things are fragile...
- Good morning detectives, and thank you Olivia.
Everybody said "Good morning" like in a choir. Fin was looking at Liv helping Alex with the cup and putting off her coat. He didn't lose a minute and started talking
- You guys slept on the same place, huh? Or are you going to tell me it was a coincidence?
- Save your jokes, Tutuola. We only arrived at the same time, such a coincidence. But it was it.
Liv nodded and looked to her partner with a serious face, like asking him to stop talking. Fin got the message and said he was just kidding. Liv threw her thing on her desk, took a long breath and looked down. She usually did these thing when someone talked about Alex and her on this way. Fin was now regretted. He didn't need to say what he said. He approached his partner and placed a hand on her shoulder.
- Liv I'm sorry. I didn't mean to...
- Make me sad, I know you didn't mean it, Fin. Im ok,and now lets do some work.
Amanda gazed Amaro and Fin like asking what was that. Nick said to her "never mind, sometimes it happens...", only Amanda could hear. Even though she believed on Nick, she really wanted to know what was going on with Olivia. She didn't know why but somehow Olivia was an inspiration to her. Amanda wanted to become an excellent detective just like her, but she never told it to anyone.

They have been working hard that year so they were all kind of tired. Many crazy cases, some of them almost impossible to solve. Every time Alex lost a case she got so upset all though her partners aways told her how good she was on her job. Actually she knew she was a good attorney, but losing that cases... Was just terrible. She thought about the hard work the detectives had done, investigating all those facts, and people. And she was "wasting" their hard work. In Alex's vision she had the obligation to always win everything. Since she was a teenager she thoughts on that way.

When the clock hits 13 o'clock it means its time to take a break and eat something. They couldn't wait anymore to have a little break. Amanda was in front of Olivia's desk with a hand on the pocket. It took some seconds to Liv notice her presence.
- Liv, wanna go out to eat something? Im hungry and I don't feel like going alone.
Olivia often received invitations for lunch but she wasn't expecting that from Amanda.
- Oh,sure Rollins. I want to eat too!
When Rollins was wearing her jacket and catching her purse Nick seated by her side:
- I thought we were going to have lunch together, Manda.
- Yeah I'm sorry Nick. We are going out other day, I promise but now I need to do it.
Nick did not get the message. What does Amanda needed to do?
When Amanda and Olivia were waiting the elevator Alex showed up by their side with her cellphone in her hand. Olivia could see she was texting someone.
- Hi girls, may I know where are you going? Oh, and I like the purse Olivia...
- We are going to eat something. Want to join us? - Olivia said trying to look to Alex's beautiful blue eyes.
- I would go if I didn't have another lunch scheduled. Sorry, I really wish I could go with you.
Amanda answered for Liv, saying it was ok.

While they were both eating at place 10 blocks from the squad, Olivia pointed to Amanda:
- Your pancake look good! I like pancakes, Im almost able to do it by myself.
- I wish I could say the same for your Caesar Salad, but I don't like it at all.
Liv laughed and Amanda did the same. Liv tried to convince her friend her salad was good, without success. They chatted a little about women stuff and how near their little vacation were. Olivia had forgotten she would be on vacation next week! She could not believe, only one more week of work. That sounded really good, though she will be a lot of time without seeing her work friends. Especially one work friend...
- Huh, Liv I want to ask you something. - Amanda said leaning closer to the brunette.
- Ok, you can ask! Olivia said smiling.
But Amanda didn't want to seem rude, no way. So she asked another thing, nothing to do with what the have planned.
- What are you going to do on your vacation? Amanda could feel her cheeks blushing.
- Humm. I don't know yet. Rest of course. Maybe travel. I don't
know where to, but I want to. Good that you are asking me this, I had forget to think about it, can you believe?
Amanda didn't know how to extend that topic anymore, she had to ask the so called question. Olivia noticed Amanda's head wasn't there.
- Im sure you did not took me of the squad to ask what Im going to do on my vacation. Whatever you want to tell me, you can tell. Trust me, we know each other for almost 18 months...
- Yeah, and on this 18 months I noticed every time our ADA come next to you, you get kinda nervous. You act strange and You don't tolerate jokes about her... Can I know why, Liv? I think Im worried about you.
Olivia was shocked and her legs were shaking. How could Amanda notice those things? Were her feelings so evident? Her heart seemed beating up at her mouth.
- Olivia are you ok? Amanda could clearly see how stressed was.
- What? Oh yes I-Im all right. I just didn't know how obvious I was. You cant imagine how ashamed I am.
Olivia had her hands on her head. Imagining the whole squad talking about her personal things...
- Who else know this,Amanda? Please you gotta tell me!
- I don't know Liv, don't worry about that, I just thought you trusted me to talk about it, but I can see now how wrong I was.
- Amanda, is not I don't trust you,believe me. I've trying to hide my crazy feelings for that woman for so much time. Every time I say something rude to her I broke my heart, but I need to do that or she will figure out. And now you say this to me, I can see I cant hide anymore.
Amanda put her hand on her partner's looking into her wet eyes.
-Liv, are you in love with Alex?
A tear fell of The brunette's eyes. For the first time she was going to talk openly about this. But suddenly they heard a voice of their knowledge. Fin's voice.
- Yo, what are you doing here? We have a work, do you know about it?- He said with an almost funny face.
Amanda couldn't believe. She was almost going to hear the truth of Olivia's mouth for the first time. All she wanted to do was help her friend even if it was hard. Now she had to wait again to had the kind of conversation with Olivia.
