2 Weeks Later

Amanda Rollins had just gotten done with a case, she walked through the door to her apartment and plopped her files down onto her table. She went and sat down on her couch. It had been a long case. One that took at least 3 days. Then there is the trials coming up and all she wanted was to relax for awhile. After a long silence, Amanda decided to read. She poured herself a glass of wine and sat down on her couch with her book and dog, Franny. She opened her book and out falls the card that the detective from SVU gave her, "Detective Amaro." She read the card aloud. She had forgotten that she was using it as a bookmark. Amanda stared at it for a minute. It is the first time she's thought of him since she has been home. He was so nice to her and so helpful. "I don't even know why I am thinking about him. He was just a detective that helped you out. You do not need to call him." She was having an argument with herself, "I'm going to call him." She finally decided, but she needed an excuse. She sat and thought for a minute, scanning her surroundings. Her eyes landed on her files. She could ask for help on a case! It wasn't even in the realm of being an SVU case, but what did he know he was all the way in New York. The detective picked up her phone from the coffee table and dialed the number.

"Hello?" He answered.

"Umm. Yes, Hi. Is..", She squinted at the card, "Detective Amaro there?" She threw the card on the table.

"This is him. Who is this?" He asked. It was quiet on the other line.

"This is Amanda Rollins. The-"

Amanda was cut off, "Oh! Hi." He stated.

He remembered her, "Hi!" She laughed.

"What can I do for you Amanda?" He asked.

"Well off the record, I need help with a case."

"Oh. Well alright. What's up?"

"So there's this girl that was murdered down here. Brutally, and my squad doesn't think it was a rape, but I do."

"And why do you think that?"

She smiled. He had no idea that the case was already solved, "Well her clothes were all ripped and torn."

"The autopsy would verify whether she was or not."

"Yes, but you and I both know that those aren't always true."

"This is true. Is there any other evidence of rape that you saw?"

She looked at the file, trying to find anything that could help, "Oh. Rope burns on her hands and ankles."

"Okay. See we are getting somewhere. You said her clothes were torn?" Wow he was really helping. She should have called him before, when this was actually an ongoing case.

"Yes." She answered.

"So why doesn't your squad believe you?"

"Who knows? I'll figure it out." She ended that conversation.

"Um. Okay?" He laughed, "So how are you doing?"

"I'm hanging in there. They got me a new partner."

"Yeah? And how is he?"

"It is a she and she is great."

Amaro laughed again, "That's great Amanda."

She smiled. It was silent for a few minutes. She wondered what he was thinking about. Could it be the same thing she was thinking about? Or maybe he just wants off the phone…..that thought got her attention.

"Hey. Thanks, but I think I am going to go."

"Are you sure?" He seemed to be worried.

"Yeah. Night Detective."

"Nick. Call me Nick."

Amanda smiled again, "Goodnight Nick."
