Summary
In the immediate aftermath of their last conversation at Forlini's, a catastrophic accident erases the very betrayal that drove them apart. Now, Olivia must navigate a fragile peace with the man she remembers, who has no memory of the man he became.
Words can be like knives
They can cut you open
And the silence surrounds you
And holds you

Summary
It’s not the door opening that rouses her from her doze, or the thin line of light that spills in as whoever it is slips into the room. It’s the way that the throbbing in her shoulder eases, the way her body relaxes as the smallest bit of warmth seeps into her various bruises and scrapes.
“Rafa?” she says, because there is, quite literally, no one else in the world it could be.

Summary
Rita sighs.
"How exactly do two otherwise competent and responsible adults end up with a marriage, an apartment, and two children without ever actually talking about their feelings?"
Rafael leans forward until his forehead rests against the coffee table.
"I think it was supposed to be a joke."
She sighs again. "This is the most inconvenient marriage of convenience in the history of the institution."

Summary
“We didn't exactly part as friends,” Olivia pointed out dryly.
“No, I guess you didn’t. But you used to be. When Mr. Barba left the DA’s office, you said it felt like losing the closest friend you’d ever had.”
“That was… then. Before.”
“The Wheatley trial.”
“Yes.”
“The one that Mr. Barba didn’t win, as I recall.”
“Not for the lack of trying.”
“Are you certain?”
That took her off guard, like a sudden gut-punch. For a long moment all she could do was stare, her mind aswirl in a blizzard of old hurts, unspoken doubts.
“It doesn’t matter why he did it,” she heard herself saying as if from somewhere far away. “It doesn’t matter what he did. I asked him not to defend Wheatley.”
It was like a mantra, she suddenly realized, one she had been spinning for four years. It used to help. It used to ground her.
It used to remind her why.Bookmarked by Alv

Summary
Olivia Benson is sitting across the bar.
It’s just something that Rita has noticed, watching her turn away the few people who have approached her, apparently happy to sit at the bar alone, slowly sipping her single glass of red and staring into space.
She's tempted to try her own luck.
(Neither of them have any idea of all the ways their impulsive one night stand is about to change their lives).

Summary
Her heart stuttered in shock, because Rafa was looking at her in confusion. Watching her was as if he would a stranger, with his head slightly tilted to the side.
With a blank, stoic gaze instead of the warmth and kindness he always had in his eyes for her or even, a cautious wariness at her presence in the hospital room.
Amanda’s relieved smile dropped at watching Olivia’s face morph into one of hurt.
“Not funny, Rafael.” She drawled in warning.
Olivia’s eyes never left his face, watching as he stared at her, with no flicker of recognition lighting his eyes.
“Amanda,” He began, rolling his eyes at her at the thought that he would even be joking right now. “I’m not kidding, I don’t have any idea who she is.”
