FINALLY HAD ANOTHER CHANCE TO UPDATE. Here is a 3rd way Olivia finds out lol. Hope you enjoy.
It was another day at SVU.
It was busy and Nick and Amanda were stressing a bit. They had found out Amanda was pregnant a couple weeks ago but decided to not say anything just yet. How were they ever going to deal with this and tell Olivia and the rest of the squad.
They had only been together for about 8 months, so it came as a shock to them both.
Nick being the sort of man he was vowed to stay by Amanda's side and it was not like she didn't appreciate it but she knew she could do this on her own. This was Amanda though not ever wanting to depend on anyone else but she understood where he was coming from and accepted it.
At first she had been scared when she looked at that pee stick and it came out positive. Damn that man must have super sperm she thought to herself as she laughed out loud. She had walked out of his bathroom to find him pacing back and forth. When she told him the results, he seemed genuinely happy and she couldn't help but feel a small flutter in her stomach. She knew it was too early for it to be the baby but it gave her a sense of security and made her think that maybe everything would be alright after all.
Soon after that he insisted on telling his mother. Amanda had met his mother a few times and she knew they were dating but Amanda hadn't expected the joy on that woman's face when they told her, it was like they told her she had won a million dollars.
Now here they were in squadroom hiding the happiness they felt from everyone they loved and saw as family.
Amanda was looking at her computer intensely and Nick had stepped out for a coffee run. When all of a sudden an officer walked Nick's mom into the squadroom.
"Amanda, sweetheart" said the kind hearted older woman
"uh Mrs. Amaro…what can I do for you" answered Amanda nervously as everyone around her started to notice the two.
"Hello, Ms. Amaro" cut in Olivia "are you looking for your son?"
"oh no, no, just wanted to drop off this food for Amanda"
Olivia gave Amanda a questioning look
"uh Thank you" said Amanda as Nick's mom handed her a lunch bag
"oh yes, you know you have to keep yourself healthy now, specially for the baby"
Right at that moment Nick walked in and everyone in the squadroom had suddenly nothing to do as all eyes were on Amanda.
"Mama" said Nick "what are you doing here?" he looked at Amanda who was as red as a tomato
"hijo, I came to bring Amanda some healthy food"
"Uh, Thank you Ma" he said as Olivia gave him a look "let me walk you out"
"Amanda, my office please…Nick join us as soon as you get back" she said sternly
Amanda put the plate down and walked into Liv's office.
"Liv…" she began
"don't"
Amanda felt awful, not that long ago she had been right here in this position about to lose her job
"Are you pregnant Amanda?" asked Liv
Nick walked in and closed the door behind him. It hurt him to see the woman he loved standing in front of Liv with her hands behind her back as if she were being scolded by the principal.
"Liv…" Nick began
"I will get to you" said Olivia annoyed "well, Amanda?"
"Yes Olivia I'm pregnant"
"and when were you planning on telling me?"
"soon"
"soon?"
"Liv it's not mandatory until she's 4 months" Nick cut in angrily, he was tired of Olivia treating Amanda the way she had for the past few months.
Olivia looks at him upset at the tone of his voice.
"you're the father?"
"yes Liv I am"
"Right under my nose, how did I not see it?"
"Liv this isn't about you?" he said "we just didn't want to cause any problems"
"any problems?...do you see the position you have put this squad in?"
"why do they have to know?" blurted out Amanda full of emotions
"I don't know what you want me to say, I have to tell 1pp, if I don't I'm risking everyone's job and I can't do that"
"Liv…." Said Nick
"Nick…you're good detectives and I will make sure to let them know that" she looks at Amanda "really Amanda, I just can't risk everything"
"Do what you have to do Liv" he said
She opens the door to let them out. They begin to walk out.
"By the way" she said "Congratulations" she smiled as she shut the door.
"haha" they hear Fin laughing
He hugged Amanda "so you really got a little Amaro in there?"
Amanda smiled as she nodded
"Congratulations man" he said as he shook Nick's hand "whatever happens man, you know we'll always be family"
