Authors Note: Thank you all for the reviews and follows, Here is a second chapter for y'all and I hope you enjoy. Once again I do not own any of these characters.
And if on cue Finn and Cragen told both women the nightmare that have been released upon them. "William Lewis escaped custody."
As the news was delivered to them Amanda watched in horror as she saw the color in Olivia's face drain, and in an instant she dropped her phone and rushed to her girlfriends side just as her knees went weak. She grabbed Olivia just time before she hit the ground and as she felt her begin to shake she whispered in her ear "I got you, I am here. It's just me."
"OLIVIA!" Cragen shouted through the phone when it went silent, and this was not the time for silence.
Olivia quickly grabbed her phone where it had landed "Yeah I am here sorry." She quickly told him, while she held on Amanda as if it was the only thing keeping her grounded.
"Rollins is coming to get you; I want you both down here now!" He demanded of her not wanting no for an answer.
"Yes captain." Olivia told him in a whisper, before she hung up the phone.
Rollins on the other hand completely forgot about her phone, until Frannie jumped off the bed and ran over to it. Without letting go of Olivia's hand, she reached over for her phone and quickly told Finn "Got it" and then hung up the phone.
Amanda placed her arms around Olivia and held her tightly, they thought this nightmare was over, but it seems that someone up there has it out for them, no make that out for Olivia. It seems she can never get a break, the jury found this man not guilty they believed this monster over someone who is a true hero and has protected them for all these years. "See Amanda I told you that I didn't deserve you." Olivia whispered under her breath but it did not go unnoticed by Amanda.
Amanda moved her body so she was in front of Olivia and took both her hands in hers. "Look at me." Amanda told her but the ever stubborn Olivia Benson did not look at her. "I said look at me Olivia" Amanda told her once again, this time in a sterner tone. It took a few minutes before Olivia did what Amanda asked and one she did, Amanda spoke. "I never ever want to hear those words come out of your mouth again. Do you understand me? You deserve me, actually you deserve better than me Liv, and you deserve the best in this world. I love you with all my heart, I have never loved anyone the way I love you. So don't ever think for a second, that you don't deserve me, because I am the one who doesn't deserve you." Amanda told her in a softer tone, and in that moment Frannie came running over to them and licked Liv right in the face which earned a laugh out of both women. "See even Frannie knows that's the truth, and loves you too." Amanda added with a giggle.
"Come here, you're getting some of this dog slobber too!" Olivia said with a tiny laugh too and pulled Amanda in for a deep passionate kiss.
"How long have you known me Liv, you should know that dog slobber doesn't bother me" Amanda told her with a smile when the kiss ended, happy to see her girlfriend smiling in this soon to be another dark time.
"Yeah well, c'mon you heard the captain he wants us down there, and he will probably send the SWAT team soon if we don't hurry." Liv told her while she began to stand up, and Amanda laughed knowing it was true.
Once Amanda and Olivia got themselves ready they both said goodbye to Frannie and got into Amanda car and drove down to the precinct. Once Amanda pulled into her parking space, she turned off the car but before Olivia could open the door Amanda grabbed her hand and pulled back. "What?" Olivia asked
Amanda looked around and when she saw no one was there she leaned over and gave Olivia a kiss. "That's what." Amanda whispered against her lips before she placed another. "I love you and I am right here. We all have your back" Amanda told her as she pulled away from the kiss.
Olivia nodded her head "I love you too." She told her with a smile and then they both got out the car and made their way to their squad room.
As soon as they both walked into the squad room all hell broke loose. "Christ Rollins, what took so damn long?" Finn snapped at his partner.
"Now there is no need to snap at her Finn, I had to get ready. It is almost 3:30 in the morning now." Olivia told him, knowing that her girlfriend didn't need the protection but with Olivia it was almost a habit. She was shocked no one had picked up on their relationship yet. But then again maybe they did and just haven't said anything.
"Yea because it took that long to throw on a pair of jeans and a sweatshirt Liv" Finn told her with a smirk.
"Olivia, Rollins my office now!" Cragen snapped from his office door.
Olivia and Amanda looked at each other, before Olivia held out her hand telling Amanda to lead the way. Olivia followed Amanda into the office and shut the door behind her. "Please take a seat both of you." Cragen told the women and they did as he said.
"How did this happen?" Olivia asked needing to know how to hell William Lewis was able to escape custody so easily.
"He faked being sick, said he had a seizure. Once they took the handcuffs off, he killed both nurses, and took out the officers at the door and took their weapons." Cragen told them and Amanda felt her blood start to rise.
"Why the fuck did they take the cuffs off that monster" Amanda snapped which earned her a look from the Captain. "Sorry sir" Amanda quickly apologized.
Cragen nodded his head before he continued "They needed the cuffs off to be able to work on him. He faked it and he faked it good." Just as he got done explaining there was a knock on the door. "Come in" Cragen told them and all three of them saw Amaro at the door.
"Captain you might want to hear this." Amaro informed them and Cragen stood up from his desk and followed the detective out into the squad room, with Amanda and Olivia not far behind them. Finn was on the phone with someone and once he noticed that the Captain, Olivia, and Amanda were in the room he hit the speaker button on the phone.
Olivia's whole body froze when she heard the voice, which has haunted her for the past several months. Amanda saw in the corner of her eye the demeanor change in her girlfriend and she wanted nothing more to pull her close and tell her everything was going to be alright but she knew right now wasn't the time. Instead she settled on placing a hand on her shoulder as they both including everyone in the squad room listened to the voice of evil fill the room.
"Hello Detective Benson, did you miss me?" William Lewis asked, knowing full well he was on speaker phone and the one person he wanted to talk to most was finally there and listening.
