I fixed the errors/typos I could find in the previous chapter. Thank you all for your amazing reviews! Your reviews help me shape what comes next. I know a reviewer, KBShipsRollaro, I believe wanted Rollaro to go away for a weekend. As of right now, I'm not sure how to make that fit into this story and if I can't find a way then I will totally write a new Rollaro for you. Also, I realized the lines I use to separate the story into sections were not showing up so I'm trying to go back and fix that as well.

"Are you sure you want to do this?" Amanda asked as she tied his tie around his gray dress shirt.
"You worry too much…" Nick kissed her and ran his hand along the inside of her ass cheeks, "Take these off." He tugged at her panties.
"We'll be late for work." Amanda slid on her slacks. Nick let out an annoyed sigh.
"What? You act like we haven't made love in weeks!" She laughed and kissed his lips.
"It feels like it!" Nick exaggerated and sat down on the bed.
"Shut up! We just had sex like 30 minutes ago."
"Hmp…feels a lot longer" He leaned back onto his elbows, "Just come sit on me, I'll be quick."
"Keep actin' like I'm deprivin' you and I'll really start holdin' out!" She looked at him with a playful smile but Nick knew she was serious.
"Okay, okay. I'm sorry. Don't get crazy on me." He picked up his wallet, badge, watch, gun and her purse, "I'm gonna start the car."
"Where will we live?" Amanda wondered aloud on their way to work.
"Where do you want to live, the city or somewhere else? Not too far from work, though."
"How do we even begin the process? What's our budget? How many bedrooms? What if no one wants to buy your house or what if Maria doesn't let you?"
"Her name has never been on the house, it's mine. Now stop worrying, later I'll find an agent and have him check everything out. I'll take care of it."
Amanda envied how calm he was about certain things, for being a hot head he was surprisingly calm most of the time. "Am I going to be on the house?"
"Do you want to be?" He looked over at her.
"Well, I would like to make a home with you, not for you. So yeah, I would want to be included in contractual and financial aspects."
"Okay."

All week the detectives had been getting open and shut cases, which was good. But it also meant a lot of paperwork, so while they weren't as busy pounding the pavement they were just as busy pushing the pen. They looked up as Olivia walked out of her office, "Amaro, Carisi, we got a man at Bellevue who is bleeding from the rectum, hospital suspects rape. Go talk to him and see what he has to say."
"Liv, I can go with them." Amanda offered.
Liv looked from Amanda to Nick, "Actually, I need you and Fin to go down to The Jane Hotel. Hotel security called in a suspected assault they found on hotel cameras."
Nick and Sonny quickly headed out to Bellevue both felt uncomfortable but knew it was something that happened more often than it was ever reported.
"Why couldn't she give us the hotel?" Carisi complained.
"Get in." Nick ignored his question; sometimes Carisi's immaturity annoyed him.
"So what's goin' on with you and Amanda? How you guys doin'?"
Nick looked over at the rookie, "Nothin'."
"Okay." Carisi shook his head taking the hint Nick didn't want to talk about Amanda.
"Carisi, when we go in there, try not to be so blunt. Chances are this guy is gonna clam up."
"Yeah, okay. I'll let you take lead. I've never interviewed a guy that's been raped."

Back at the station Nick and Sonny were trying to get the Bellevue case closed up. The guy admitted to a homosexual act but said it was part of a hazing ritual for potential candidates to a popular frat at NYU. Nick tried to get the guy to understand that he had been raped but he refused to see it that way. When Carisi tried, the man shut down and yelled obscenities until they left the room. Liv tried to get Barba to pursue the investigation but Barba told them there was nothing they could do unless the man says he was raped.
Amanda and Fin didn't have much luck with their case, either. It clearly was an assault that occurred but the hotel manager wouldn't identify who the man and woman were or if they were even guests of the hotel. They needed to do some digging to get Barba to get them a subpoena of the hotel records. From the video they were able to see which room the man had come from.
The four detectives filled in their sergeant, Liv told the guys to finish up the paperwork and she sent Amanda and Fin home, they would have to wait for their subpoena until Barba came in the next morning. Amanda and Fin cleared off their desks as much as possible before getting ready to leave while Liv stayed nearby as she took a call from Lucy, Noah's babysitter. Amanda could tell something was up; she looked at Nick to see if he picked up on it but he was focused on his paperwork.
Amanda leaned in close to Nick, "you want dinner?"
"Would be nice." He smiled.
"I'm gonna go get started so it'll be done by the time you get home."
He nodded his head and looked at Carisi. Nick kept a serious face while Carisi looked at him with a grin.
"Okay, I need to head out." Liv sighed.
"Everything okay?" Nick asked.
"No, Lucy needs to leave, her mother fell and she's in the hospital."
"Is she okay?" Amanda questioned.
"I'm not sure. Ugh, I have files to go over…I could just take them with me." Liv said more to herself than Amanda.
"Well…I can watch Noah for you." Amanda gave Liv a nervous smile. Nick and Fin both shot their heads in Amanda's direction in shock.
"You sure?" They turned and looked at Liv with even more shock on their faces.
"Yeah, I'm off already. I can get him for you."
"That would be great, but you don't have to."
"I'd be happy to."
"Okay then, I'll call Lucy and let her know you're going by."
Fin and Nick stared at each other in disbelief.
"Nick, close your mouth." Amanda called over her shoulder as she walked to the elevator.
"Does this mean I don't get dinner?" he called after her.
"After the fit you threw this morning?" She grinned at him as the elevator doors closed on her.
"What's this about a fit?" Fin laughed.
"Nothin'" Nick threw a crumpled paper in Fin's direction.

Liv followed Nick back to his house but ran inside before he reached the front stoop. "Sorry Nick, but I gotta pee badly!" she yelled back to him as she ran straight to the bathroom.
Nick walked into his house and stopped in his tracks in complete awe of the sight in front of him, Amanda had changed into yoga pants, his old Army t-shirt, and had her hair pinned up in a clip. She had Noah sitting on top of the table feeding him some bow-tie pasta. He had never seen this side to her, sure she interacted with Zara but this was different. A baby couldn't talk back, a baby required a person to be in tuned with their every move and emotion. He came up behind Amanda's bent over body and pulled her into him, turning her head so he could kiss her.
She pulled back from him, "What was that for?"
"I love you." He tossled Noah's hair.
"I love you, too." She kissed his lips quickly and turned back to Noah, giving him another piece of pasta.
"You look incredibly beautiful right now. You're gonna make a great mom."
"Oh God, don't say that. I could never be a mom and I'm not even dressed!" She turned away to hide her blushing face but smiled at the thought of someday having a baby of her own, with Nick. "Do you want a beer?"
He nodded yes and brushed her bands away from her eyes.
"Whew! I feel much better now!" Liv came into the kitchen and straight to hug Noah, "Amanda, thank you so much for watching him. I hope he wasn't too much for you."
"No, he was fine. He's a good baby." She tickled Noah's tummy, "Aren't cha, Noah?"
Noah giggled on cue, "He likes you!" Liv beamed.
"I'm gonna get changed, is dinner ready?" Nick asked walking towards his room.
"Oh wait, Nick, Laurel is in there."
Nick froze, "Where?"
"In your room." She glanced at him trying to gauge if he would be upset.
"Why is she here, in my room?"
"She called me cryin', all upset, saying some guy she was seeing ended things with her. I felt bad, she told me she was at Hooligan's so I told her it was okay to come over here…hope its okay."
Nick clenched his jaw, "It's fine, but why is she in my room?"
"She was cryin' and I didn't want her to scare Noah so I told her to go lay down for awhile." She looked at him with some worry.
"Okay, I can change after she leaves. She's going to leave, right?"
"Yeah, I'll wake her up. I'm sorry." Amanda started towards to the room.
"No, don't wake her up. It's not a big deal." He pulled her into his arms and inhaled her hair, "You're a good friend, babe." Nick remembered the incident with Laurel in the bar hallway a few weeks ago and yesterday outside Liv's apartment. He needed to tell Amanda but right now wasn't a good time.
"You ready to eat?" She asked him and went back to scooping pasta onto a plate, "Liv, you're staying for dinner right?"
"Sure."
"Good. I made enough for all of us."
"Nick, Laurel is asleep. Go grab some clothes and get changed, I'll serve you meanwhile."
"Umm…I'll be fine. I don't want to wake her up." Nick looked at Liv and she gave him a questioning look, he knew what she was thinking so he shook his head side to side.
Halfway through dinner, Laurel came walking into the dining area. "Hi guys, Nick I hope you don't mind me napping on your bed."
Nick pursed his lips in a polite smile at her.
"I feel so much better now after that nap." She put her hand on Nick's bicep, "you're bed is comfortable, I woke up thinking I was in heaven."
"Awesome." He smiled into his beer as he took a drink, he wasn't good at pretending to be nice.
"Mandy, I better get going. Thanks for everything, you're my best friend." She hugged Amanda tightly, "Bye, Olivia."
"Bye, Laurel. Good seeing you." Liv smiled at her.
"Bye, handsome." She pinched Noah's chubby cheek.
"See you later, Nicky." She squeezed his shoulder and left his house.

Liv helped Amanda clean up the kitchen while Nick sunk into the sofa watching SportsCenter with Noah. "I forgot to mention earlier, Laurel wants us to go out with her tomorrow night. Emily said she'd go to. What do you guys think?" Amanda looked over her shoulder at Nick.
"I'm not sure if I can, Lucy might not be available." Liv looked at Nick.
"Out to where?" He asked.
"A club…"
"A club? Does she know she isn't 21 anymore?" he said sarcastically.
"Nick, be nice."
"Sorry, Amanda. I'm not too crazy about a club, do you want to go?"
Amanda stood in thought for a moment, "It would be nice to get out and have some beers, but if you don't want to go then we won't."
Nick caught Liv's eye, she mouthed "Go" to him, pointed to Amanda, then pointed to her own smile. He looked back at the tv for a moment then spoke up, "Ask her if she'd be willing to go to a bar instead of a club."
"Really?" Amanda asked in surprise.
"Mmhmm. If she says yes, then I'll go…" he looked over at Liv with an sinister grin, "if Liv goes."
"What?!" Liv threw a kitchen towel at him.
"Call my Mom, she'll babysit for you."
"Nick, it's a Friday night. She might have plans."
Nick laughed, "My Mom wouldn't have plans on a Friday night and if she does then you'll tell her you need her to babysit while you try to get laid!" He threw the towel back at her.

"Nick, get dressed please…"
"Okay…" He noticed her tone seemed a little more irritated than the last three times she had asked him to get dressed. He decided to listen to her before she turned violent and threw things at him. He walked into his bedroom, sat back on the bed and watched Amanda put her make-up on.
"Hurry up and change, please." She glanced at him through the mirror, "Why are you smiling at me?"
"You look sexy." He smiled at her bashfully.
Amanda blushed herself; Nick always caught her off guard with his compliments. She liked it though, he was very observant and the fact that he was attracted to her made butterflies escape into her belly. He undressed down to his boxer briefs; he came up behind her and wrapped his arms around her waist, moved her hair away from her neck and placed spot kisses along her neck and shoulder.
"You're body is sexy…your muscles are a turn on…"
"Like this?" He flexed his biceps for her.
Amanda laughed at his silliness, "Exactly like that." She felt him slide his hands around her waist again, he slowly slid his right hand down her thigh and give it a firm squeeze. His lips were on her neck again, she felt his tongue working the spot between her jaw and the back of her ear, she let a small moan. Her rate picked up as his hand kept into her panties.
"Nick…what are you doing?" She said suspiciously.
"Nothin" He dipped his finger into her slit, found her clit and rubbed softly.
"Liv's supposed to be here any minute…"
"Shhh" He rubbed her clit with much for strength, he traced figure eights over and around it quickly, he felt her back tighten up against his body.
"Ah, Nick…"
"Shhh…I love how wet you feel." He whispered into her ear and nibbled her lobe. He picked up the pace and rubbed her clit harder and faster, feeling her pussy seep its juices onto his hand made him work harder to get her off.
"Mmmm" She gasped, "Aww fuck…"
Nick's doorbell went off, he felt Amanda's body go stiff, "No Mami, she can wait."
"Shiiit, uhhh" She bit down on her body lip.
"That's it, Mami. Cum for me…" He continued to quickly fuck her pussy with his finger and only slowed his pace as he watched her through the mirror lose herself in the pleasure and cum over his hand. She rested her body weight against him and her head tossed back onto his shoulder as she came down from her high.
The sounds of the door bell chiming brought her back from her orgasmic trance. "It's Liv."
"I'll get it." He smiled at her and clenched his jaw.
All she could do was nod her head at him. Nick pulled on the jeans Amanda laid out for him and went to get the door. Amanda walked on shaky legs to the bathroom. She disliked walking after she came because vagina felt squishy but she needed to clean herself up.
Nick opened the door and Olivia pushed herself the rest of the way in, "What took you so long? I ran the bell like three times. Let's go, I have a cab waiting. Where's your shirt?"
"I was trying to get dressed until you interrupted me." He walked back to the room and grabbed his shirt.
"Where's Amanda?" Liv gave herself a once over in the mirror. "Your room smells funny." She scrunched her face at him.
"She's in the bathroom. Noah with my Mom?"
"Yeah. Amanda let's go!" She yelled towards the bathroom.
Nick ran gel into his hair and tied his shoes. Amanda walked out of the bathroom, Liv joined them and headed out to the waiting cab.

Next chapter will include their night at the bar and the craziness that follows it. I'm going to try my best to finish this story in one more chapter as tomorrow is my last day on holiday and I want to finish this one.
Also, your opinion, should Nick and Amanda live in a house or an apartment? Respond ASAP so I have a few opinions to consider before I write it.
Thank you!
