Chapter 3

It had been six days since the investigation had started. There was now a reward out for Edward Gulling, the man they were after. He had not only kidnapped three more girls, but also a married couple, which incited the reward, proving that it wasn’t just a special victims case. Gulling had killed the last original girl and they had found her body three days ago, shortly after two more of the others had gone missing.



Sienna entered the station to a massive wave of heat. It was dry heat, and crisp, not natural. She had only been home for 3 hours, having not left for two days before, sleeping in the bunks when she had a chance. She quickly pulled off her jacket and dropped it on her desk, rolling up the sleeves of her sweater.



“Jesus what the hell happened in here?” Sienna asked as Cragen walked up to her, his sleeves rolled up and his collar loose.



“The heater’s broken to where we can’t turn it off. Not to mention we’ve got the whole department and the F.B.I up our asses.” He answered. “Did you get any real sleep at home?”



Cragen had sent Sienna home after she had nearly passed out from the two hours of sleep she was getting in the bunks, where she wasn’t even really sleeping at all, her cell phone and office phone ringing consistently, not to mention the other noises coming from the main squad room.



“Yeah, but they still kept calling my cell phone so I might as well come back in right?” She answered, giving Cragen a smile as Elliot came from his desk and walked up to them.



“What’s up?” Cragen said, looking at him, noticing the expression on Elliot’s face wasn’t good news.



“Couple of guys from the F.B.I want to talk to you, they said it’s important.”



Cragen huffed. “What line?”



“2.” Elliot said over his shoulder as Cragen went to the phone in his office, leaving them alone.



“Hey.” Elliot said, smiling slightly, finally addressing Sienna.



“Hey.” She said back. “So what’s with the politics?”



“Started a couple hours ago, the F.B.I saying it’s not special victims anymore because of the adults….” He said trailing, having heard it all before.



They looked at each other a moment, Sienna biting her lip before Elliot spoke. His sleeves were rolled up, and the top buttons of his shirt undone, obviously because of the heat. It was always a sort of awkwardness, but a good one, that despite not wanting to, made Sienna smile.



“Do you feel better?” Elliot asked, honestly concerned as his hand went to her elbow protectively. He had heard the phone calls she got about the case, harassment for a story, threats that something would be twisted if they didn’t get more information for the public. Sienna was much better equip to handle it than any of them, having a way of dealing with newspapers and such, after having worked at one for almost a year and knowing many of the guys who ran them. But the mere exhaustion and the fact that her phones rang as much his, showed she clearly needed a break, not being able to sleep in the bunk room.



“Yeah, yeah I’m fine.” Sienna responded as she patted his chest softly, reassuring him.



“Elliot” Olivia said, holding a phone in her hand. She had been watching the two of them as had Fin, who had given Munch a look when he saw Elliot walk over to Sienna. He gave him a dirty look now when he left her to walk over to Olivia who handed him the phone, Sienna already focusing on the papers on her desk.



Elliot smiled sarcastically at Olivia’s look as he took the phone from her. They all had their different opinions about Elliot, him usually being the one to cause the trouble. It was already obvious that Fin was not his biggest fan from past events, but since Fin had noticed Elliot’s notice of Sienna, he had become even less of a fan. Olivia on the other hand, was always wanting to protect people. Elliot’s divorce papers weren’t even final, and Sienna was almost a little sister to her, not to mention his and her jobs caused large amounts of stress. She just never thought it good for anything to go on between Sienna and Elliot. And by the look she had just given him, it was obvious she didn’t like how Elliot seemed to be the one starting things.



But, Cragen had his own ideas about the two of them, and considering that he was the most logical of them all. The way he saw it was, Stabler still wore his wedding ring and Sienna still called him Detective Stabler, to him that meant nothing was happening.



And he was right, for the most part. There was sexual tension there, it was obvious, and it wasn’t that Cragen hadn’t noticed it, it was more than tension was tension and there always was a lot of it in the squad room, not matter what the kind.
