Yay another chapter, hope you all and enjoy reading it :)
Olivia woke up and blinked a few times, bringing a hand up to rub the sleep from her eyes, she looked at the body beneath her and smiled, Ilsa was snoring slightly and mumbling something in her sleep, Olivia remember what had happened during the night, feeling the pounding in her head from to much alcohol, she gently got up from the couch to look for something to get rid of the pain.
She finally found something to take and swallowed two pills, washing them down with a glass of water, she walked back over to the couch and saw that Ilsa was starting to stir, she hoped her friend wasn't about to have another nightmare.
Olivia jumped back as Ilsa sat up gasping her eyes wide and scared.
"Are you ok?" Olivia asked as she moved to her friends side slowly reaching out to touch her
It was Ilsa's turn to jump as she felt Olivia's hand gently touch her arm, She looked around franticly waiting for her eyes to adjust to the lack of light, she clamed down when she saw it was just Olivia sitting with her 'No monsters here Ilsa, get a grip' she scolded herself
"Yeah Liv, I'm ok" she said rubbing her eyes, making sure she had not started crying during her dream.
"Bad dream?" Ilsa nodded at her friend "Want to tell me about it?" Olivia asked
Ilsa shook her head "No…I'll be ok, I just need a drink" she got up off the lounge and went into her kitchen, pouring an ice cold glass of water, walking over to the sink she turned it on and splashed some water onto her face, refilling the glass she went back to sit down.
"You sure you don't want to talk? You listened to me all night" Olivia said as her friend sat down
"I'll be ok" Ilsa assured her
Olivia almost asked Ilsa not to tell anyone about what she had learned about the former ADA Alexandra Cabot, but she knew better, Ilsa would not say a word, even under torture.
"So what now?" Ilsa asked
Olivia smiled "How about we get some more sleep?"
Ilsa nodded in agreement and the two women made there way to the more comfortable bed, where they stayed until a more reasonable hour.

Olivia woke up a few hours later with Ilsa wrapped around her, she smiled and she tried to detangle herself from her friend, but as Olivia went to move Ilsa's arm, the grip tightened.
Ilsa mumbled something incoherent and snuggled in closer to the warm body.
"Ilsa time to get up" Olivia said softly
Ilsa opened her eyes slowly and smiled "It's a good day when you wake up next to someone as gorgeous as you"
Olivia laughed as she got out of the bed "Thanks Romeo now get up so we can get going"
After forcing herself to get up Ilsa had changed and was waiting for Olivia "Why don't you go without me, I need to see someone quickly before I get into work"
Olivia look at her, wondering what she was up to, but decided to drop it for now, she needed to get home to change before work, she could always ask her about it later
"Talk to you later love" Ilsa said as she hugged Olivia before her friend disappeared out of her door, after having a five minute shower and throwing on some fresh clothes she pulled out her phone and quickly dialled a number, she was putting her things in her pocket as she listen to the phone ringing, waiting for it to be picked up.
"Hello trouble what can I do for you?" the familiar voice asked
"Hey, you busy this morning, I need to do something before work and I would love to have you're help" Ilsa shrugged on her black leather jacket as she waited for the answer, she already knew what it was going to be.
The voice on the other end laughed "when and where?"
***
Ilsa strolled into the precinct right on time, hanging her jacket up she had a bright smile on her face, as she walked to her desk Olivia reached out and grabbed her elbow
"Where did you go this morning?" she asked
Ilsa smiled and patted Olivia's arm "You don't need to worry" she said then turned and went to her desk, settling in for a long day of work. Ilsa was filling out a form for another case she had been working when she got a call
"Couri" she said as she answered her phone in one hand, still writing with the other
"Ilsa I need to talk to you" Ilsa head the ADA's voice and cringed
"I'm kind of busy" Ilsa said hoping Casey wouldn't push her
"My office when you can" The phone went dead after that, Ilsa just sighed and pushed her chair out, wondering to get her jacket
"Where you going?" Olivia asked
"Novak wants me" Ilsa answered
"Oh so that's where you went this morning"
"Shut up you" Ilsa said and shoved Olivia as she went walked past her.
Casey was sitting at her desk doing her own work when she had gotten a phone call; once it ended she knew she had to call Ilsa. So she sat working while she waited for the detective to show up.
Ilsa was standing outside the office door taking a deep breath, steadying her nerves for whatever ass chewing she was about to get from the lawyer on the other side.
Casey looked up from her desk when she heard the soft knock at her door
"Come in"
Ilsa opened the door and gave a charming smile as she slowly walked in, closing the door behind her
"G'day love" she said in what she hoped was her most dashing voice
"What did you do?" Casey asked, her face and voice stern leaving no room for argument
Ilsa looked flabbergasted "N-nothing" she stuttered "It wasn't me"
"I got a call this morning" Casey said standing up from behind her desk and slowly walking around it, Ilsa gulped and leant back against the door "It was my date last night, calling to apologise about how he treated me"
Ilsa smiled "Maybe he just saw the error of his ways?" she offered, hoping that Casey would buy it, The look on the young attorneys face told her she didn't believe a word of it.
"I asked him why he was apologising"
"Oh crap" Ilsa hissed under her breath
"He said a woman with a strange accent and a tall and very scary man dressed in a lot of leather showed up at his work this morning"
Ilsa's eyes darted around the room as she continued her innocent act "Coincidence, I'm not the only person around with an accent"
Casey stepped closer and Ilsa tried to make herself smaller "But you are the only one who knew I went out with him…" Casey paused "he said he was threatened and he was scared for his safety"
"That is a lie we never laid a finger on him or threatened him!" Ilsa said before she could stop herself "Aw fuck"
"I knew it!" Casey said
"Ok yes I went there, but he shouldn't have treated you like he did" Ilsa pushing off the door taking a deep breath "I mean come on you didn't deserve that, the man is an idiot for treating a lady like that, but I never laid a hand on him, I just told him he should have treated you better and…stuff" Ilsa looked down at the ground, finding the carpet of Casey's office suddenly very interesting
"You scared the hell out of a man because he was a lousy date?" Casey asked, her voice softening
Ilsa shrugged and scuffed her shoe on the floor "Because he didn't treat you right and he upset you"
Casey took a deep breath, She thought it was kind of sweet that Ilsa would defend her like she had "Wait, how did you even find out who he was, I don't think I gave you a name"
Ilsa looked up and smiled her cheeky smile "I'm a detective it's my job" after a few minutes of silence Ilsa spoke again "A-are you really mad at me?"
Casey sighed and pinched the bridge of her nose and she sat on the edge on her desk "No, but don't go around threatening anymore of my bad dates"
"Fine someone who treats you right and I won't have to"
Casey chuckled at her friends remark "Who did you take with you?" she asked out of curiosity
"Oh just a friend" Ilsa smiled.
"I'm not sorry I did it you know"
"Are you every sorry about anything you've done?" Casey asked looking at the look of contemplation that crossed the detective face
"Yes" Ilsa said blankly, she turned to leave when she thought of something "Oh wait Casey I need to ask you something"
"What?"
"Can I get a warrant for Asael Garcia's DNA?"
Casey scoffed "Are you serious? you don't have any evidence he was involved, he has an alibi!"
"We have a previous victim!" Ilsa shot back
"Did this victim press charges"
Ilsa held her index finger up with a look of hope on her face before it disappeared and finger drooped "No" she said
"Are you seriously asking me this Ilsa?"
Ilsa sighed "I think he did it" she stated.
Casey walked back around her desk then sat down "Then get more evidence or break the alibi I can't help you otherwise"
Ilsa rolled her eyes then walked out the door 'Break the alibi? how can I do that?' she thought as she made her way back to the precinct, as she got in the elevator to get to her floor she was hit with an idea 'hmm…maybe I don't need a warrant for his DNA' Ilsa flew out the doors and ran to her desk
"What the hurry?" Elliot asked as she flew past him
"OH hey Elliot how's it going when did you get here?" she asked in a rush
"What are you doing?" he asked eyeing her suspiciously
"I have a few calls to make" She said sorting through piles of paper till she found what she needed, picking up the phone and putting the receiver to her ear, she pushed the buttons and waited for the other side to pick up.
