Amanda tosses and turns as she tries to catch even a minute of sleep, but her mind seems to have other ideas as she thinks over everything that went on earlier that day; from misjudging a rape victim, to misjudging Olivia's judgement and talking about the ongoing investigation that seemed to be stressing the older woman out. She lets a soft huff escape her lips before she turns again, watching Olivia's chest rise and fall peacefully as she slept beside her. She smiles to herself, blue eyes tracing over soft features, and she can't help but think how beautiful the other woman is, how out of breath she feels by just being next to her. She scoots closer, her arms wrapping around Olivia's waist as she shifts them so her head is resting against Olivia's shoulder.
Olivia stirs, groaning slightly before she notices the weight against her. "You okay?"
Amanda smiles to herself, her girlfriend's groggy voice reaching her ears. She feels a little guilty that she had woken her up, but she feels this overwhelming need to just feel and hear the woman next to her. "I'm fine," She starts, shifting again so that she's practically on top of the other woman.
Olivia chuckles sleepily, her hands tangling into messy blonde hair, her nails scratching lightly against her scalp in comfort. "Talk to me."
Amanda sighs, "I'm sorry about today. I know I already apologized, but..."
"Mmm apology accepted." Olivia responds. Amanda lifts her head to look at the other woman, and Olivia opens one eye when she feels Amanda looking at her. She lifts an eyebrow as she gives her a reassuring smile, "You wanna tell me what's really on your mind?"
"Cassidy." Amanda admits after a few seconds of silence, a small look of guilt crossing her features when she feels the woman tense underneath her. Amanda sighs before she sits up, stradling Olivia's waist as she looks down at her.
"What about him?" Olivia asks, a little more awake as she stares at the blonde with curiosity and concern.
"What did he say?" Amanda asks in a low whisper, unsure and clumsy in it's tone. Olivia's eyes her before she shrugs her shoulders and shuts her eyes again. Amanda frowns before she pokes Olivia's side, causing the other woman to jump.
"Really?" Olivia asks a low chuckle escaping her lips as blue eyes look at her expectantly. Olivia sighs, her hands resting on the blonde's thighs, her thumbs rubbing at pale skin, before she continues. "He basically told them about Lewis and seeing a shrink."
"I'm gonna kill him." Amanda blurts out as she makes to get up, but Olivia's hand rise to the woman's waist, keeping her in place.
"You and me both, babe." Olivia says with a light chuckle, "but can we kill him another day? I'd like to get some sleep."
"I guess," Amanda says with a defeated sigh, chuckling when Olivia gives her an incredulous look. "I'm kidding, relax."
Olivia intertwines their fingers before she tugs the other woman down, connecting their lips in a light kiss, smiling when Amanda sighs contentedly. Amanda bites Olivia's lower lip before she pulls away, smirking when a soft moan escapes from in between plump lips. Blue eyes stare into brown as her stomach swirls and flutters, her heart beating twice as hard as she stares down at the woman she loves. Olivia leans up and connects their lips in another kiss, moaning when the blonde deepens the kiss.
"Sorry for waking you up," Amanda says after a few seconds, her breath labored as she stares into deep brown eyes. There's a small smile that plays on her lips when Olivia simply rolls her eyes and gives her a groggy smile, shaking her head in amusement. Olivia simply tugs her back down, pecking her lips before wrapping her arms around the blonde, hugging her tightly against her.
"I love you," Olivia responds when she feels the younger woman fall asleep in her arms, closing her eyes and letting herself fall into a dreamless sleep.
