"Olivia your off this case."
The brunette detective glared at her boss.
"Why?!"
Cragen sighed.
"Because Olivia. You are personally invested in this case. The defense attorney will easily say that you want to pay the man who hurt you back by taking his child."
Olivia sighed, she didn't like it, but he had a point.
"Fine, I'll be OFFICIALLY off the case, but can I at least help gather information around here? I wont interview anyone or chase down suspects, but can I at least still help on the side?"
Don sighed but nodded. He knew that if he didn't allow it, she'd do it anyway and go out by herself.
"Fine, but that's it. Elliot, your only to be on the case until we track down Emma's father. After that, your off. I'm not letting you interrogate him."
Elliot quirked an eyebrow.
"Why?"
"Because I'm not stupid. Do you really want to be put in the room with the man who raped your partner?"
It sounded harsh, but Olivia knew he wasn't intending to be so. It was just a question. Elliot knew that as well but he still didn't like the way he was throwing the phrase Olivia was raped around.
"Yes, so I can beat the living shit out of him."
Cragen gave Elliot a look that clearly stated that was his point.
"Discussion is closed, now get to work detectives."
Elliot and Olivia sighed but nodded, knowing it was as good as they were going to get.
"Sam?"
Sam looked at her god-daughter and smiled. They were currently headed towards Target to pick out a few things for Emma's room. They'd wait to do the major decorating until she was with them but Sam figured that they needed to make her room look a little bit homier. Plus they needed to get a toddler bed.
"Yes baby?"
"Can I help you pick out some of the stuff for Emma's room?"
Sam nodded.
"Sure, what do you think Emma would like?"
Sky smiled.
"I asked her earlier what her favorite color was. She said it was purple. Also she said she liked puppies and The Lion King. So maybe we could get her a purple blanket and pillows, some puppy stuffed animals and maybe a Simba and Nala stuffed animal?"
Sam couldn't help but be proud of her god-daughter.
"Sounds like a plan baby."
"Where is she Erin?!"
Erin shook, trying not to scream as the man she loved stalked in front of her.
"I told you I don't know baby! She ran away! Why does it matter?"
The brunette man shook his head. Why was this woman so stupid?! Sure she had been good to him, stealing his first daughter and then bearing his second one. But this was the second time she had screwed up too! The first time being that she left his first child alone so she was found and now his second child was missing?! He would have to take care of her just as soon as the kids were found.
"Find them! I want both of them found!"
Erin nodded and ran out of the room as fast as her bruised legs could follow her. She knew exactly what she had to do, whether it killed her in the process or not.
TBC! I know this was a really short chapter but I'm still really sick. I just felt back at the lack of updates so I wrote this. Please please keep the reviews coming! Next chapter will be up sometime later this week when I'm feeling better! Thanks to all those who have reviewed so far!
