Hey guys thank you so much for all of the reviews and stuff! So all the parts that are in Itallics is Amanda thinking to herself :)

Chapter 10

Liv and Cragen rush towards the small group of two to see what is making their fragile friend so scared. They are very confused to see Amanda clinging to Fin, instead of trying to get away, and crying.

"Please. Please don't let me go. Don't let him take me again. Don't let him drive me away from ya'll again," She sits and cries, holding Fin in a death grip.

"Don't worry Amanda, I won't let you go. I won't let him take you away from us. Never again," he says the last part mostly to himself, swearing that he would do whatever was in his power to protect his "little sister". He slowly picks her up and sits in the back seat with her still on his lap. She seems to still be nervous so Liv and Cragen waste no time starting the car and driving off. Cragen goes fairly fast but not fast enough to make Amanda feel as if they were being chased like Patton was. He just really wants to get away from that hell hole.

They arrive at the precinct but tell Amanda and Fin to stay in the car for awhile. Liv and Cragen clear everyone out from their floor so no one will crowd around Amanda and make her uncomfortable. They go back out to find her asleep but still clinging to Fin as if he is her lifeline, which he probably is. They all carry her upstairs, careful not to wake her up.

"We should let her rest. I'm sure she barely got any these past few days." They lay her on the couch in Olivia's office, letting her sleep.

A few hours later

Olivia walks into her office to check on Amanda and notices her struggling in her sleep. She goes to nudge her when she finds a pool of blood seeping out around her stomach and calls Fin in.

"Should we bring her to the hospital?" he questions.

"No. Tamara is coming. She will be much more comfortable wi-" Olivia gets interrupted by a Amanda emitting a blood curdling scream.

"AMANDA!? Amanda! Wake up! Wake up!" Fin nudges her and yells.

"Fin. Stop yelling at her! Only scares and distresses her even more! Just hold her hand and quietly say soothing words to her," She tells him. They both gently grab a hand, Olivia rubbing her thumb over Amanda's knuckles.

"C'mon Amanda, calm down It's just us. You're safe now," Olivia coos. She slowly calms down and wakes up squinting at her audience.

Her eyes open wide, her mouth forming an "O" as if she just realizes what had happened.

Oh my god. They took me away from him. I'm gonna be punished even more now. I don't want that. Please, god, no. She looks down at herself and realizes that she's not in her own clothes.

'Shit. They saw what was happening. Now they know how dirty and disgusting I am. God dammit, they aren't gonna want me anymore. It makes sense though, I don't deserve love or care. They must've seen-'

"Amanda? Come back," Liv gets her attention and continues, "Please don't go down that dark path. We love you. We will always love you no matter what has happened or what will happen in the future okay? Always. We love you… you understand?" Amanda nods her head but avoids Liv's eyes so it's not convincing to anyone.

'She doesn't mean that. She just has to say that. I'm just another victim to them now. I'll be pitied from everyone now, never taken seriously as a detective ever again. They'll never believe me about anything ever again either because they know that I lied to them. They know I'm a dirty little liar. I don't deserve any love or support from them. Patton was right, I should just go back to him. Everyone would be better off. I'm just a responsibility of the state and THEIR unit now. A dumb whore.'

"Amanda. Sweetie, Tamara's coming," Olivia says, hope showing on her face, "She can check out her injuries for you. Then maybe we can take your statement for Barba's case?" At the mention of Barba's name Amanda's head snaps up.

"Barba?" Olivia nods her head.

"Can he come here now?" Amanda asks. She would never admit it but she has become quite fond of the man, thinking of him as a close friend. Olivia is taken aback at this but agrees thinking it might help with Tamara. She calls him.

"Barba."

"Hello Rafael, it's Olivia."

"Yes Olivia, I realize this. That would be the amazing power of caller ID," he says sarcastically.

"Ha-Ha," Olivia says sarcastically back, "Listen. It's about Amanda. We found her and she's requesting your presence." Not even a millisecond later they hear him moving about, "I'll be there in no more than ten." He hangs up his phone and sprints out the door. He is not going to leave his newly found friend hanging. He tries to mentally prepare himself for what Amanda might look or act like but he knows that there is no preparing for that kind of torture. He walks into the station, goes up the stairs, and takes a deep breath outside of Olivia's office door.

He walks in and finds Amanda zoned out, staring at her hands. He clears his throat and is pleasantly surprised when she looks up with hope in her eyes. He slowly walks over to the couch and gestures towards it as if to ask if he can sit down on it. She looks at him, her eyes conflicted, and nods once. Barba slowly sits on the couch fairly far away from her but holds out his hands. Amanda slowly reaches her hand out and places it inside his. He wraps his hands around his tiny, frail one and places them on his lap.

"You know, Amanda, I was wondering when I would have the honor of sitting next to you, your majesty," he says with a slight smirk that only grows bigger when he notices her trying to fight off her own smile. Olivia stares on in astonishment, amazed at the big difference Barba has made in being there in the last few minutes. She motions to Fin and they decide to let them be until Tamara arrives.

"Wow. Since when did they become such close friends?"

"I think since she trusted him enough to tell him her story and he didn't betray her by judging her or telling anyone. He made her feel safe," Olivia replies. Nick and Munch arrive and practically drag Patton by his hair into the holding/interrogation cell. Cragen glances towards the office, glad to see that Barba held Amanda's attention meaning that she didn't notice her captor come in.

Someone clears her throat and all of the detectives turn around.

"Oh hey Tamara. How's it going?"

"Munch. Nice to see you," She replies.

"Amanda's in there with Rafael. He's keeping her calm," Olivia informs her.

"Okay. He can stay in there if he wants but I would like for you to be in there too."

"I was already planning on it," Olivia answers with a slight smile. They make their game plan and walk in the door.

"Hello Amanda," Tamara says cautiously but Amanda doesn't reply.

"Amanda?" She tries again and steps closer to the frightened girl which causes her to flinch and lean towards Rafael.

"It's okay Amanda, she's here to help. Trust me. I'm your friend so you can trust me right?" He says to which she nods. He crosses his legs keeping her hand in his, trying to keep himself relaxed for Amanda's benefit, but her posture remains stiff Rafael nods at Tamara, silently telling her to begin.

"So Amanda, let's start…"she starts calmly.

So I have a question for everyone. For ships what do ya'll want?

Would ya'll rather have a Rafanda relationship or Rollaro relationship?

Whichever one isn't chosen I will make a friendship! Thanks guys! :)
