Authors Note: Hello everybody! This is my first SVU story. I got this idea after tonight's episode Psycho Therapist. I hope you all enjoy, and I do not own any of these characters.

The Svu gang left Olivia in the courtroom like she had asked, and no one saw her slip away to the staircase where she was crying. Detective Amanda Rollins was getting nervous, she knew how hard this trial has been on her girlfriend. They have been dating for over a year now but no body knew.

"I'm going to go check Liv" she told her coworkers and opened the door to the court room only to find it empty. "Shit" she mumbled under her breath.

"Everything okay?" Finn asked his partner.

"Yeah Liv just isn't in here anymore, I'm going to go look for her. Ya know how tough this has been on her." Rollins told him quickly and took off down the hallway.

As Rollins made her way down the hallway not even sure where to begin, she got a brief scent of her girlfriend and followed it to a door leading to a staircase. She looked over her shoulder quickly making sure no one had followed her, and quickly slipped inside the door.

She could hear the faint sounds of someone crying and quickly made her way down the stairs.

Olivia heard the footsteps behind her and quickly jumped up "Police" she shouted and Amanda threw her hands in the air. Olivia's body quickly relaxed when she saw the tall blonde. "Sorry" she mumbled under her breath and turned away quickly to make sure her girlfriend couldn't see her tears.

Amanda walked up to her girlfriend and wrapped her in her arms. "It's okay baby, it's over." Amanda whispered softly as she held the strong woman in her arms.

Upon hearing the soothing sound of her girlfriends voice and feeling her against her body, Olivia quickly lost all control of her emotions. She clung to Amanda as if all the strength in her body was gone. Amanda could sense the sudden weakness and lowered them both down to sit on the stairs not once losing contact with the woman she loved so much.

The couple just sat there holding onto each other in the empty stairwell when Amanda's cell phone went off.

"Hey Finn"

"Did you find Liv yet?" Finn asked

"Yes, I'm just going to take her home. She's tired." Amanda told him and Olivia squeezed Amanda's hand.

"Alright, tell her we are all here for her." Finn told her.

"Will do" Amanda told him and hung up the phone. She put the phone back into her jacket pocket, and put her fingers under Olivia's chin and gently pulled her up to look at her. "Ready to go home?" Amanda asked with a smile in that sweet southern tone.

Olivia nodded her head and couldn't help but smile slightly back at her.

Amanda drove them to her apartment, which in the last couple of months have become their apartment. They moved the items Olivia wanted out of her apartment and into Amanda's and kept it a secret of their moving in together. Amanda and Olivia were going to tell the gang about their relationship just before everything happened with Lewis. But since then the timing just hasn't seemed right.

"We are home baby" Amanda told Olivia sweetly, as they walked into their apartment and Olivia turned and wrapped her arms around Amanda's waist.

"Yes we are, and thank you for being so supportive. I could have never have made it through without you." Olivia told her before she placed a gentle kiss on her girlfriends lips. But as soon as the kiss started Olivia pulled away, Amanda was about to say something but Olivia quickly placed her fingers to her lips. "Don't speak, I'm not done saying what I have to." Olivia told her and Amanda nodded while she wrapped her arms around Olivia's neck as she smiled at her to tell her was listening.

Both women stood there looking at each other for a few minutes lost in each other's eyes before Olivia finished her speech. "I know I don't tell you this often, especially in these last months but Amanda Rollins I love you with all my heart, and don't even forget that. You are my rock and my strength when I feel like all else has failed and I should just give up. I don't deserve you, but I can't imagine my life without you. I love you"

Amanda had tears in her eyes as she heard these words she doesn't hear often pour out of her girlfriend with so much emotion. She saw the tears in Olivia's eyes and she knew they were matching her own. Amanda leaned down and pressed her lips against hers before she whispered against them. "I love you too."

~Four months later ~

It was 2:30 in the morning, the storm was raging outside their bedroom window. As if Mother Nature knew of the darkness that was about to be released.

Amanda and Olivia were wrapped up tightly against each other when they both were awaken by the sound of their cell phones going off. Amanda lazily reached over for Olivia's cell phone and handed it to her before she kissed her quickly and grabbed her own and made her way out of the room.

"Rollins"

"Benson"

Both women answered.

"Olivia it's cragen, we have a problem."

"Rollins, you need to get to Olivia's place and fast." Came Finns voice through the phone and Amanda felt her heart drop as she made her way slowly over to the door way to their bedroom where she could keep an eye on Olivia.

"What's goin on?" Amanda asked quietly.

"What's up?" Olivia asked her captain as she stared at her girlfriend.

And if on cue Finn and Captain Cragen told both women the nightmare that have been released upon them. "William Lewis escaped custody."
