Discalimer: I don't own them

A/N: Again, loved the reviews, the updates may get a little spaced out just because I only have a few more days with my friends before I leave them for college

While editting this chapter after I uploaded it, I noticed that the text seemed smaller than usual, if this is the case when it is posted, I apologize, I don't know what I did!

Dead Ends Again

While Elliot and Olivia waited at the precinct for the rest of the computer report, Munch and Fin headed over to the warehouse.

"Olivia seemed a little on edge this morning." Munch noted.

"It's early. We were at the house late last night." Fin offered as an answer. "And you were bein your normal annoyin self." He joked.

"I was just trying to find a way to speed up those reports. I didn't mean anything by it." He defended.

"Yeah well I'm sure she didn't mean anything by it either. Don't go havin a heart attack over it or anything." Fin laughed.

"Did you ever notice how those two interact?" Munch said out of the blue.

"What the hell are you babbling about now?" Fin asked. "What two?"

"Elliot and Olivia." Munch answered. "Did you ever notice how they interact with each other?"

"I can't say I've ever really studied them." Fin answered. "Why?"

Munch simply shrugged his shoulders. "Well, they know each other's coffee orders by heart, when to push each other and when to back off, what to say to piss the other off, and how to get the other to do exactly what they want." He offered.

"Yeah, and?" Fin asked.

"Just makes one think is all." Munch answered.

"Oh no. This better not be another one of your conspiracy theories John. It's too early, and I'm too tired." Fin warned.

"What? You don't think there's something there?" He asked.

"Something where?" Fin asked, growing more annoyed. "And if you're gonna say they're robots or aliens or pod people, I don't wanna hear it."

"Your faith in my sanity is overwhelming." Munch scoffed. "I think they have feelings for each other."

Fin couldn't help but laugh. "Feelings? For each other? Elliot and Olivia?" He asked. "Are you serious?"

"Why not?" Munch asked.

"You mean the two who we've had to physically restrain from killing each other at times? The same two who up until a few months ago couldn't even stand being in the same room with each other" He asked.

"Yes I do." Munch answered.

"Were you not there when Olivia left the unit because she couldn't stand being with Elliot anymore?" Fin asked.

"And were you not there when she came back?" Munch countered.

"John, Liv's dating that Lieutenant from Computer Crimes." Fin offered. "And Elliot's been playin the field for months."

"I still think there's something there. Maybe they just don't know it yet. Or they're just too damn stubborn to admit it to themselves." He answered as the car slowed to a stop at their destination.

"Whatever you say man." Fin concluded as he climbed out of the car. "Whatever you say."

Fin and Munch made their way over to the car that held Detectives Jacobs and Marney. They were seated in the front two seats on their tenth cup of coffee since the night began. It was alway a challenge to stay up during stake outs.

Fin tapped on the window so as not to scare the two men, but they jumped anyway.

"Hey, Cragen sent us to relieve you." He told the men as they rolled down the window. "You get anything?"

"Nothing." Jacobs answered. "No one even came near the place."

"Damn." Munch muttered under his breath. "Hopefully we get something off of those e-mails."

Back at the precinct Elliot and Olivia were pretty much just sitting around waiting. There weren't many e-mails to go through, and most of the information in them pertained to when the video would be completed, and how to get it online. There was one that discussed when and how they would be transporting Anne, but no references to specific names or locations were made.

A little before noon Kevin walked into the precinct. Olivia rose from her desk to greet him.

"Hey, what's up?" She asked when she got to him.

"We tracked all the e-mails sent and received from the computer in the warehouse. The majority of them were made from computers in a library in the east side." He informed her.

"Damn, these guys had their bases covered." She sighed.

"Yeah, but it seems like one of them may have gotten a bit greedy." He smiled.

"Why?" Olivia asked, recognizing the smile as one that said he had something she would want.

"The biggest e-mail sent from that computer consisted of a very large video file." He answered. "Seems they sent a copy via e-mail to someone."

"Did you get a location?" Olivia asked.

"Unfortunately, we couldn't pin point it, but it was sent off a server that services the east side of Manhattan." He answered.

"So, all you can tell us is that a copy of the e-mail was sent somewhere in the east side?" Olivia asked.

Kevin could sense her annoyance. "Hey, it's better than noting." He defended.

"Sorry Kev." Olivia sighed, realizing the tone she had been taking. It was starting already. He told her he loved her, and now she was beginning to push him away. "We've just been really stressed over here. This girl has been missing for over three weeks. We just wanna find her."

"Hey, it's okay babe." Kevin said, rubbing her shoulders with his hand. "I understand. You don't have to be sorry. I wish we could have done more to help."

"You've done more than enough." Olivia smiled. "And we all appreciate it."

"I'll call you later tonight." He smiled, handing off yet another file. He kissed her cheek quickly, then turned and left.

Olivia returned to her desk where it seemed like the entire precinct was waiting for her.

"All they could find was that all but one of the e-mails were written and sent from a library in the east side." Olivia informed them.

"What about the other one?" Munch asked.

"All they could find out was that it seems to have been a copy of the video, and it was sent somewhere in the east side. They think it was to a private residence." Olivia answered.

"You think that's where they could be holding her?" Elliot asked.

"It's a possibility." Cragen answered. "Unfortunately, we have no idea where in the east side she is."

"Or if she's even there." Fin added.

"Looks like we've hit another dead end." Elliot sighed.
