"Nicholas Amaro, lo jodidamente te atreves !" I yelled as Nick looked at me shocked.

"¿Qué demonios Catalina , que no hizo nada ." Nick said as I clenched my fists.

"Liv me acaba de decir que alguien fue a IAB ! Conroe dije fue en el pasado" I said as Nick grabbed my wrist.

"I didn't go to them. Lina I swore to you about that!" He said as I looked him dead in the eye.

"If you didn't then who did?" I asked as he let my wrist go.

"Lina, just talk to IAB okay." Nick said as I shook my head.

"He will come after me again. I'm just going to leave it alone okay." I said softly as Nick nodded.

"Lo siento por ir tras de ti." I said shyly as Nick shook his head, chuckling to himself.

"Su hermana pequeña perdonado ." He said as we walked out of the bunk room.

"Everything alright?" Sonny asked as I nearly ran into him.

"Yeah, just had to talk to Nick alone." I said as we walked back into the squad room.

"Lina, can I ask you a huge favor?" Liv asked as I was heading back to my desk.

"Yeah sure, what's up Sarge?" I asked as I logged into my laptop.

"Do you think you could watch my son Noah tonight? My normal sitter is sick, I would ask Rollins but she has a meeting and I have this dinner I have to go to, Nick told me you were great with kids." She asked as I nodded. "Yeah sure of course. Is he okay around dogs?" I asked as she nodded.

"Yeah, I'll drop him by around 6." She said as I smiled.

"Can't wait." I said as I got up. "I'm going to go get lunch." I said grabbing my purse. I hurried to the elevator.

"Hey Cat wait up." Carisi said as I held the door for him. He got in and we went down.

"So what are you doing for lunch?" He asked as I shrugged my shoulders.

"I might go get some Chinese food." I said as Carisi nodded. I got a text on my phone from a blocked number.

"IAB is investigating me. You're going down bitch." I read it over and over again as Sonny peered over my shoulder.

"Who the hell sent that?" He asked in the same tone that Nick would ask in.

"It's nothing." I said shaking my head as he grabbed my phone.

"Sonny give that back!" I demanded as he ignored me and went through my messages.

"Who the hell are sending you these messages." Sonny asked as I shook my head. I grabbed my phone from his hands and hurried out.

"Lina wait!" Sonny yelled as I blended into the streets. I walked into a Chinese restaurant. I ordered a box of Chow Mein and Kung Po Chicken. I paid and walked out. I walked back to the station and went straight to my desk. I ate in silence as Sarge walked over to my desk.

"Catalina my office. Now." She said as I nodded slowly. I got up and walked to her office.

"Carisi told me you received messages from someone threaten you. I need to see them now." Liv said as she closed me and her in her office.

I pulled out my phone and handed it to her.

"Are these from Conroe?" She asked as I nodded yes.

"Lina, you need to talk to IAB. He is threatening you." She said as I shook my head.

"Conroe just says that because he knows how to press buttons. He wouldn't come after me." I said as Liv shook her head.

"Nick is right. You are stubborn." She said as I gave a small chuckle.

"Sarge if he goes after me. I'll talk to IAB." I said as she smiled at me softly.

"Okay. Look Lina, I want you to talk to Tony again. Get him to confess or something. Edison is coming to the station and he is going to lose it." Liv said as I nodded.

"Yeah I will go talk to Tony." I said as I got out and hurried out. I watched Fin take Tony back to "The Box" as I grabbed my coffee. I walked back in to Tony sulking around in the room.

"Why you swing on my brother Tony?" I asked as Tony looked at me.

"He asked too many question. He kept saying I hurt Athena. I never touched her!" He demanded as I sat in front of him.

"I want to you ask you a few questions Tony. There are about Theo." I said as Tony with ridged.

"What about him." Tony asked as I pulled out pictures from the crime scene.

"Tony the way you described your sisters attack. It was so closed to detail to Theo's attack. Do you know what happened to him?" I asked softly as Tony shook his head.

"Theo was my friend." He said quietly as I nodded.

"Did you know he was in the Manhattan?" I asked as he nodded yes.

"Did you meet up with him?" I asked as he shook his head no.

"You knew he was in the city but never met up?" I asked confused as he nodded.

"I never met up with him. His brother said that I couldn't be around Theo anymore." Tony said as I got up.

"Tony, I'm going to ask you a serious question. You need to answer it for me okay." I said as he nodded as I looked at him.

"Do you have Hepatitis B?" I asked as he froze.

"Tony I need you to answer me." I said as he shook his head.

"I don't want to answer." He said as I got up.

"Tony, you know that Theo is dead right? He had Hep B and was murdered the same way your sister was. Now either you tell me the truth or I can prove it with physical evidence." I yelled as Tony stood up. "

I didn't mean to hurt him!" He said as he broke down crying as he fell to the floor.

"I'm sorry, I'm so sorry." He said as I knelt next to him. "What happened Tony?" I asked as he shook his head. "I can't." He said crying. "Do it for Frida." I said as he looked at me.

"I didn't mean to hurt him. He was crying in the park. I saw him and he tried to run away but he tripped." He said as the door busted open.

"Not another word. This interview is over." Bayard Ellis said as I got up.

"Alright, but Tony remember Theo." I said standing up and brushing off my pants.

"That's enough Detective." Ellis said as I turned to face him. I walked out of the room and went to my desk.

"When did Ellis get here?" I asked Manda as she shrugged her shoulders.

"I was so close with him!" I said as I slammed my desk drawer closed.

"Lina, it's okay. You got enough for Barba to charge him." Liv said walking out of her office.

"Sarge, I don't think Tony killed Theo." I said as Fin chuckled.

"Are all Amaro's skeptical about all things?" Fin asked as I laughed.

"Yes." I said as Nick perked up. "Really?" He said as I rolled my eyes.

"I'm looking for Detective Catalina Amaro." Said a familiar voice. I turned around and saw Conroe wife Maureen, standing in the squad room.

"May I help you?" I asked as Maureen took a step forward.

"Do you mind if we speak in private?" Maureen asked as I nodded.

"Why don't we go speak in here?" I said referring to the conference room. We walked into the conference room as I closed the door.

"Max is under investigation with Internal Affairs." She said as I shook my head.

"Maureen…" I said as she put her purse on the table.

"Catalina, my husband is going to lose everything. His job, his pension, his reputation." She said as I faced her.

"Maureen, this is not appropriate. You should not be here." I said as she crossed her arms.

"It isn't appropriate for you to accuse my husband for attacking you. He never hurt you Catalina" She said as I looked at her shocked. "Maureen you need to leave." I said as I walked out of the conference room. I knocked on Liv's office door as she opened it.

"When does IAB want to talk to me?" I asked as she looked at me shocked.

"What made you change your mind?" She asked as I watched Maureen walk out.

"My old partner came by. She is married to Conroe." I said as Liv nodded.

"Do you want me to go talk to the older brother?" I asked as Liv shook her head no.

"Lina, clock out. I'll being Noah to you in an hour." Liv said as I nodded. "Thank you Oliva." I said as I hurried out.

"You clocking out Cat?" Nick asked as I nodded.

"I'll see you all later." I said as I gathered my things and walked out. I walked out of the station and straight home to my sleeping dog on my couch. I locked my door and smiled at Albert, I put my keys in the bowl next to my door and put my gun away and my shield on my dresser. I changed into a pair of running leggings and a long t-shirt. I slipped my shoes off and pulled my hair out of the bun it was in all day to have my long straight hair frame my light caramel colored skin. I washed off my make-up and walked out to my living room. I turned on the news and listened to it as I made me left over chicken and chessy potatos. I heated up my dinner as I heard my door being knocked on.

"One sec." I called out as I whistled for Albert to go to my room. I closed my room and left him be. I hurried over and opened the door to see my Sargent and a little toddler with dark brown eyes and light brown hair.

"Hey Sarge. You must be Noah." I said as I smiled at Noah.

"Yes we are. Thank you so much Catalina this is something I normally don't do." She said as I shook my head. "Don't worry about it." I said as I let them in.

"He just ate dinner and is pretty sleepy. He has his blanket and extra things in his bag. He had health problems, um I have everything on a sheet in his bag." She said as I nodded.

"Don't worry about it Liv. He and I are going to hang out." I said as I took him from her arms.

"Okay, you have my number right?" Liv asked as I nodded. "Yes, don't worry I got this." I said as she looked at Noah.

"Okay my sweet boy. I'll see you later." She said as she waved goodbye to him. I closed the door and walk back to my kitchen.

"Noah you want a cookie?" I asked as I grabbed a chewy chocolate cookie and handed it to him, he happily took the cookie and followed me to the couch. I turned up the news and sat with Noah on the couch. He started to get tired as I rubbed his back.

I took the cookie from his hand as he closed his eyes and fell asleep. I smiled as I grabbed a blanket from his bag and covered him up. I got up and started on dishes as I heard the front door being banged on. I put a glass I had in my hand down and walked over to my door. I put the chain on and looked through the peep hole. I saw Conroe and shook my head. I turned around and left him outside in the hall as I picked up Noah gently and put him in my room on my bed with sleeping Albert on the floor. I went back to the living room and Conroe kept banging on the door.

"CATALINA OPEN UP!" He yelled as I shook my head. I walked over to the door and opened the door with the chain on it.

"This is not the time or the place. My Sargent's kid is here." I said as he pushed the door.

"I'm not leaving." He said as I glared at him.

"If you don't leave I'm going to call my Sargent." I said as Conroe slipped his hands through and wrapped them around my neck. He started to choke me as I started to struggle. I slammed the door on his wrists till he let me go. I locked the door and ran back to my room. I saw Noah still asleep on the bed as I heard my door being knocked on again. I jumped and walked over slowly. I looked over to the door. I looked through the peep hole and saw Oliva. I let out a sigh of relief and opened the door. "Hey." I said putting on a fake smile as Liv walked in.

"How was my little man?" She asked as she sat on the couch.

"It went great. He fell asleep and I put him in my room." I said as I walked over to the room. I opened the door and saw Albert and Noah cuddling and sleeping on my bed.

"Oh that is so sweet." I said as Liv walked in and picked up Noah.

"Hello sweet boy. Did you make a new friend?" She asked kissing the side of his head.

"Thanks for doing this Lina. I'll see you tomorrow." She said as I walked them out of the apartment.

"You too. Have a good night." I said as I closed the door. I sighed and grabbed my phone. I texted Rafi to ask him if I could coming over to his place. I changed into a pair of jeans and a t-shirt. I slipped on a pair of flats and feed Albert. Rafi responded back saying okay. I braided my hair and put Albert in my room.

I walked out of my apartment locking the door behind me and walked to Rafi's apartment. I knocked on the door and waited as he opened it.

"Lina? What happened?" Rafi said as I just kissed him on the lips.

"This now, talking later." I said as he nodded and kissed me back. We went back to his bedroom.
