I want to thank everyone for the great reviews, but I especially want to give a shout out to QDD's reviews, they make me laugh :) And I'm trying to keep new chapters coming, but currently I have writer's block :(


August 5th

16th Precinct

"Something just doesn't add up" Elliot said, observing the file in his hand. His partner, Olivia Benson, looked up from the paperwork on her desk and silently agreed. "What do you mean" Fin asked, looking at his co-worker. Elliot looked up at himi and his parter, Detective Munch, and shrugged. "Well, he confesses to raping and killing Rachel Anderson, but denies ever meeting David or Avery." "Maybe it wasn't him" Munch blurted out. His comment earned a cold glare from both Elliot and Olivia. It was obvious they hadn't told him that they caught the perp in the act. "It was him" was all Olivia said before returning to her paperwork.

Elliot, seeing his partner's frustration, put the file down, but that didn't stop Fin from continuing. "What I don't get, is why the girl was at a man she says she doesn't know's house so late." Elliot looked up and nodded in agreement. "Maybe she's protecting someone." Olivia dropped the pen in her hand, letting it hit her desk softly, but kept her eyes glued to her desk. She didn't want the three to see how angry she truely was, and how frustrated she was getting. This case was getting to her, more thatn she should've allowed, but she related too much to Avery to ignore it. "She did seem questionable, almost doubtful, when she answered our questions regarding Mr. Ramirez" Stabler admitted. Elliot, once again, looked at his partner, and after seeing her anger, dropped the subject, signalling for the other two to drop it as well.

"So, what happened when you notified the wife?" Fin sighed. "Ex-wife," he corrected, "woman was a wreck." Elliot took a deep breath as he watched Olivia put the paperwork she had currently been working on, into a folder. She then put the folder into one of her desk's drawers. She stood up, grabbing her gun, and put it in its holster. "Where are you going" Elliot asked when he saw her clip her badge to her jeans. "I'm going to talk to Avery, see what I can get out of her." Elliot stood up from his chair and headed out the door, when she stopped him. "Elliot," she said, placing a hand on his chest, forcing him to stop, "I need to do this alone." With that she left, leaving a dumbfounded Elliot, and a confused Munch and Fin.


Like I said, short, I know, I'm sorry :(
