A/N: Alright... Thanks for the reviews! Here's the next chapter. This one's a little longer, I promise!

Fin glanced between the two, "You're Rachel's boyfriend?"
"Fiance, actually," he replied. "Brian Cassidy," he introduced himself to Fin. He returned his gaze to Olivia, "Is she going to be okay?"
"She'll be fine," Olivia assured him.
"C-can I see her?" he asked earnestly.
"Let's talk first," Olivia led him to a row of chairs and sat down next to him. Fin remained standing.
"What can you tell us?" Fin asked.
"I don't know. I left for work at four. About six, she called my cell. She's been sick the past week. Asked me to pick up some saltines and club soda on my break. I got back home just after seven forty-five. I-I found her like that."
"Is there anyone who would want to hurt her? Or you?" Olivia asked, "I'm sure you both have a lot of enemies."
"Yeah, but they're all drug dealers; not rapists," he snapped. "Sorry. I just- can I see her?"
"She's still unconscious. You'll have to talk to the doctor," Olivia said. "Do you guys have any security cameras, an alarm, anything like that?"
"Of course. God, I can't even think straight right now. I still have the same place; you've been there," he told Olivia as he stood up, "You know how to get a hold of me, if there's anything else."
"Sure. Hey, if you think of anything, give me a call," Olivia said, "You know what we need." Cassidy nodded and hurried to meet the doctor.
"You let him get away pretty quick," Fin pointed out.
"Yeah, I know. Let's go back, talk to Cragen," Olivia suggested.

Cragen sat on his desk across from Olivia, "He's got an alibi?" turning to Fin he said, "Get Munch in here."
"He was at work," Olivia said, "I still need to check on it." Fin returned with Munch and sat down as Munch closed the door.
"Everything on ths case stays in here. I want to keep IAB out of this as long as possible," Cragen sighed.
"What's going on?" Munch asked.
"Our vic is a narcotics detective. Her fiance-" Fin cut her off.
"Our suspect," he pointed out.
"Fin, I know you don't know him, but I really don't think that he's capable of-"
"Who?" Munch queried.
"Cassidy," Olivia said looking at Munch.
"Brian Cassidy?"
"Guys! We're not jumping to any conclusions. We had fluids from the rape kit. We'll run the DNA. Until then," Cragen looked at Munch and Fin, "You two go check the building surveillance; get everything you can." Fin and Munch left and Cragen turned back to Olivia, "Olivia, get back to the hospital. See if Rachel's awake, otherwise, talk to Brian. Get case-files for the two of them; anybody with a grudge. Find out if he's noticed anyone following them. We have to consider the possibility that this is retaliation against Brian, not his girlfriend. I'm going to call Elliot to meet you there." Cragen started for his phone.
"You know, I'll call him. I have to go by his place to get to the hospital anyway," Olivia turned and left the office.

Elliot opened the passenger door, "Did you at least bring me coffee?" he yawned. Olivia silently thrust a Starbucks cup in his face. He took a sip and grinned, "Perfect!" He took another long drink and then looked at his partner, "What's the case?"
"Rachel Reid, she was found at home, raped and beaten."
"Who found her?"
"Fiance," Olivia replied as she pulled into the hospital parking lot.
"What aren't you telling me?" Elliot asked, giving his partner a look.
"Both the victim and the fiance are detectives," Olivia replied.

A/N: Okay, so I realized that it doesn't really make sense that Fin would know the vic and not Cassidy, but after all, it is fiction :) Let me know what you think and I should have a new chapter up within the week! (If you guys like this, that is!) Please review!
