Day 35: I want to sleep for an eternity.

Takes place a week after Days 12 and 34

"Benson," Elliot says, throwing a balled-up piece of paper at his partner's head. "Benson, wake up."
"Five more minutes," Olivia mumbles, her voice muffled by the fact that the side of her face is pressed against her desk.
"Liv, you gotta wake up."
Olivia groans and sits up, fixing Elliot with an icy glare. She runs her hands over her face and looks at her watch. 11:52 am. She groans again. "What?"
"You should go up to the crib if you're gonna sleep."
Olivia looks across the room at the stairs and nearly cries. The effort and energy it would take to make it up the stairs is more than she has left. "No," she says, resting her head back on her desk. "I've gotten less than eight hours of sleep all week."
Elliot laughs. "Welcome to parenthood, Liv."
Olivia doesn't even have the energy to glare at him.
"C'mon," Elliot says, standing up and tapping Olivia's shoulder.
"Where?" Olivia asks, looking up at Elliot.
"I'm getting lunch; you're going home."
"But–"
Elliot shakes his head. "You're not good here if you're dead on your feet."
Olivia does not argue. She just grabs her keys and follows Elliot to the car. She is asleep as soon as she sits down.
