This was a pretty Rollaroless episode(s). But I won't let that discourage me and not write the missing scenes, in NY and Chicago.
Hope you like it : )
New York
November 8
"We get it"
"Totally"
Amanda and Nick exchanged another look when they were at their desks. They were only working together too, when they were at work.
But when they weren't at work, it was something else.
"I think I'm gonna head out soon" Nick said "it's been a long day"
"Yeah" she nodded, rubbing her face a bit "I need to get some sleep"
He gave her a questioning look and she replied with a tiny smile, making sure nobody else noticed it.
Nick waited a few minutes after Amanda had left, he drove to her apartment and saw her waiting for him by the entrance to her building.
"Hey" he smiled at her, happy to see Amanda standing there, even though it took just a couple of minutes to get inside her apartment he was glad to spend them with her.
Once inside her apartment Amanda wasted no time and kissed him after he locked the door. It felt good to have his lips against hers, his tongue entwine with hers. At work they could barely get away with slight touches, his knee grazing hers, her fingers brush over his handing him a file, standing closer to each other than usual.
But when they were alone at her or his place, it was different. They didn't have to be careful.
His hands were playing in her hair and he had a smile when they pulled away.
"Want something to eat?" Amanda asked, not walking away from him.
"No" he shook his head, his hands moved down her body, reaching her back "I'm beat, let's go to bed, ok?"
She gave him another kiss, a quick one this time. She wanted to sleep too, and doing that next to Nick sounded like the only thing she could want right now.
After changing into more comfortable clothes they got inside her bed and she moved as close to Nick as she could. He wrapped his arms around her and soon after that they fell asleep.
November 9
When Nick woke up he was in bed alone. He stretched a little, wondering where was Amanda. He got dressed and walked to the living room.
She wasn't there but since he couldn't see or hear Frannie, he figured she must have taken her out. Nick fixed some breakfast quickly and just when he was done they both walked through the door.
"Morning" he greeted her.
Amanda smiled at him and took off her jacket "hey" she grabbed a piece of bread from the plate in front of Nick.
"You could have woken me up"
"You looked kinda cute, didn't wanna bother you" she smiled and took a bite of the food.
"Kinda, huh?" he grinned at her.
They ate silently for a while but then Nick spoke again "I didn't get a chance to ask you, but you ok with all this?" she looked at him with out answering "It's personal for Lindsay, it's a sibling and…"
She let out a soft chuckle "I know how it's like to have a complicated family" Amanda shrugged "I'm alright, focused on the case"
He nodded.
"Speaking of that" she checked the time "we better get going"
Nick put the dishes in the sink and said goodbye to Frannie. He gave Amanda another slow and passionate kiss.
It would have to last for a while.
They were back at her apartment later that night, they got to the boy, at least they managed to save him.
"You didn't tell me about their interrogation tactics" he told her "Voight he…" Nick didn't have to proceed, Amanda knew he was referring to Voight beating the security guard.
"When Fin and I were there they took a suspect to this cage" Nick eyes widened a little "yeah"
"And?"
"And he told them what they wanted to know" she replied.
"Really?" he nodded and Amanda gave him a questioning look.
"You think you'd do better with a cage?" she had a very serious expression, it was no secret Nick had anger issues, he's been working on it, but it was there, and Amanda wondered if Nick might do something violent again.
He looked at her, she didn't take her eyes off him "no" he said simply "I don't want that"
"Good" she smiled.
Chicago
"Yeah, I know, ok, have a good night…yeah you too, bye" Nick hung up the phone. Liv just called him to find out about the investigation. Unfortunately, the news he had to share with her was all bad. One man killed himself in front of Amanda and another fell off a building in front of Nick. They made no progress.
He noticed he couldn't hear the sound of the water from the shower anymore. He got up and walked towards the shower.
The door was closed but not locked so he knocked on it.
She opened it just a second later, a towel wrapped around her body. He forgot what he was about to say, she looked so beautiful that for a moment nothing mattered, there was nothing in the world except for the two of them.
Amanda smiled at him and he moved closer to her, caressing her cheek. When not even an inch separated them he kissed her. Tasting her lips, loving the way her skin felt, still not completely dry. He let her tongue enter his mouth and only the need to breath forced their mouths to separate.
But it wasn't for too long. Just a few seconds later Nick kissed her again, with just as much passion. Her arms were wrapped around his neck and he just needed to be closer to her. He lifter her in his arms and made the short way from the bathroom to the bed without letting her go.
He didn't want to, but had to let her mouth go so she could lie down, but the moment she was on her back his lips caught hers.
No matter how bad the cases would get, how complicated things in his life would be, Nick had Amanda and she had him.
No matter what, being with her made everything else disappear. Everything, except for the love in his heart.
Hope next week's episode is going to have more Rollaro love, and if it won't have enough – I will just add a lot of it in next week's fic.
Let me know what you thought.
