Olivia was awoken to the sound of her alarm clock, she groaned rolled over and turned it off. Walking slowly gathered her clothes for work. It was funny the way she felt this morning even though she was running on little sleep she felt great!

Elliot was out side waiting patiently for Olivia she was en minutes late! She was never late, he was getting worried, when he saw her pull up at his feet. "Woman, where have you been?" Elliot asked getting into the car. Olivia smiled at him sweetly, she was wearing a blue top and a black jeans, she was looking gorgeous. Her hair was swept up into a ponytail making her look like sixteen. It was odd the way he was noticing her.

"I was washing my hair" she said and turned unto the highway with skills honed by years of chasing criminals. "So, want to join me for lunch?" Olivia asked turning into the parking lot of the precinct.

"Are you buying? He asked closing the door. Olivia laughed it was a beautiful sound, and it was infectious. Olivia was about to answer when Shanice drove up. "Nice ride which spoiled brat did you piss off Liv" he asked opening the door for her. She smiled again.

"That's Shanice the rookie." Olivia replied taking the hand Elliot offered, and standing to her 5ft 8inches. "Did I tell we had pizza last night, she isn't that bad?"

"Yea, well I'm happy for you. But computer crimes is still a little bitch, can you believe it I sit on my butt for eight hours" Elliot complained. Olivia was smiling, her eyes those brown eyes they were sparkling it was a moment in time.

"Liv!" Elliot turned to see the rookie coming towards them, for a second he wished she would disappear so he could recapture the moment! "Found something in the file" she said showing the file to Olivia. "Oh Good Morning Sir" she said to Elliot with a shy smile.

Elliot forgave her for intruding, "I'm Elliot," he said when he noticed her smile in was the exact one. There was something familiar about her, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it. Elliot dismissed as they walked into precinct together. "Liv, if you finish early you can join me for dinner. I'm in the mood for pasta, and Shanice if you like you could come along" Elliot said and turned into the direction of computer crimes. "I'll see you guys later if all goes well" and he was gone with a smile on his face.

Olivia and Shanice worked together interviewing suspects, and tracking down Maria Smith's parents. The day was tiresome and as it drew it close Benson and Valentine sat discussing the case. "Liv, if you killed your daughter where would you go?" Shanice asked softly. Olivia thought about it but she couldn't understand how a mother could kill her own child.

Shanice watched her keenly, her eyes went cloudy and she wondered if she had said something wrong. "What do we know about Sarah Smith?" Olivia asked sitting up and typing in the name. The file pulled up and Olivia froze. "Oh my gosh. Did you know that Sarah was raped?" Olivia asked putting on her coat. "Come on we need to start at the beginning" Shanice was more than a little confused. "Shanice, she was raped, and if my calculation is current Maria is the product of rape." Shanice stood beside Olivia and touched her lightly.
