Ch. 2

It had began pouring down raining as a mortified Amanda tore out of the Banquet Hall, the blonde didn't even care that she was getting soaked as she sprinted to her car in a daze,

"Amanda, stop, talk to me, please." Olivia shouts as she ran after the distraught younger woman.

Olivia reaches Amanda's car and gets in on the passenger side. She looks at her Detective, not with anger or judgement in her cool brown eyes, but with understanding and love in them.

"I...I'm sorry Liv, I shouldn't have crossed the line with you like that-."

Amanda's rambling was silenced by Olivia's supple lips capturing hers, Liv gently brushed her tongue across Amanda's lips, seeking admittance. Amanda happily obliged her Boss, opening her mouth and allowing Olivia entry.

Amanda moaned as Liv's tongue invaded her mouth, she had dreamt of this so many times as she lay in bed, but fear would always show up and sap her courage, her inner voice reasoning that the two of them being in a romantic relationship would be too messy and complicated.

Amanda was brought out of her thoughts when she didn't feel Olivia's mouth on hers anymore, she opened her eyes and looked at the brunette.

"Sorry I got so carried away Liv, you're my Boss and I'll understand if you want me to transfer out of SVU." Amanda said, dropping her gaze.

Liv reached up and gently cupped the blonde's right cheek.

"Amanda, don't ever be sorry for kissing me." Olivia replied.

"Liv." Amanda said, tears once again welling up in her baby blue eyes.

Olivia flashed a beaming smile at the blonde.

"Tomorrow is Saturday and we're both off, how about you and Jessie come over, we'll take her and Noah on a picnic in Central Park and maybe to a waterpark, will that be ok?" Liv asks.

Hearing Olivia's suggestion lifts Amanda's mood, she loves spending time with Liv and Noah and Amanda knows that her Daughter Jessie would be positively elated to be spending an entire day with Noah and her Auntie Liv.

When Olivia and Amanda got to their respective homes, the asked their children where they would like to go for their water park play date. Both Noah and Jessie said they want to go to Oceanzone, the city's newest kid-friendly water park.

That night, sleep proved elusive for Amanda, her mind was still fixed on her and Liv's kisses, in truth the blonde had been horrified at the prospect of Olivia's rejection, but that wasn't what happened, for that Amanda was eternally grateful for.

The next morning Amanda got up and found Jesse brimming with excitement, Amanda smiled, maybe this day would turn out great for her and Jesse.

Across town, Olivia is packing up a picnic basket for her, Noah, Jesse, and Amanda.

A smile played at the corners of her mouth, Olivia had to be honest, she was extremely nervous about this outing.

It was just after nine-thirty when Liv and Noah arrived at Amanda and Jesse's apartment, the kids excitedly greeted one another and then the two adults, who just smiled and chuckled at the seemingly endless energy on display in front of them, Amanda and Olivia agreed to go to the water park in Amanda's new Honda H-RV, which had more room than Liv's Charger. Once Jesse and Noah were buckled in, Liv climbed into the passenger seat and put her seat belt on as did Amanda. Then the four of them pulled out of Amanda's driveway, headed for a day of fun in the water.
