Olivia walked in to the squad room, one winter morning to find her partner packing up his desk.
She took off her coat and placed it on the back of the chair. "El, where are you going?" she asked confused.
"I am transferring to Queens SVU and moving back with Kathy and the kids" he replied not looking up.
He knew that if he looked up he would see the pain that he was inflicting.
"When did you decide that?" she asked, holding back her tears.
"Um, last night" he said and picked up his now full box.
Olivia stood in front of him. "Can I just say one thing before you go?" she asked curiously. Not caring that Munch and Fin were watching.
"Sure, Liv. But make it quick" he said, tapping his foot.
She took a deep breath and thought of a song that she heard a few nights ago, when she was with friends at a night club. But she didn't use the exact words. "Every time we touch, I feel like I can feel like I can fly and I always dreamt of what could have been our first kiss" she said and noticed Elliot's confused look, so she continued. "What I am trying to say is that I love you, Elliot Stabler"
Elliot stood stunned for a few minutes before speaking. "Um, wow, Liv. I never knew that you felt that way" he said and then placed a hand on her shoulder. "But I'm sorry, Liv. I need to try and make my marriage work for my kids" he said softly and noticed a few stray tears stream down Olivia's cheeks.
She nodded and walked out. She walked in to the lady's room. She walked in to a stall and slid down to the floor and sobbed.
She wasn't only losing her best friend but the man she loved. She just couldn't have him, which made her jealous. She hated Kathy.
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Olivia sat in the stall, sobbing for about forty minutes when she heard the door open and the familiar sound of high heels against the tiled floor, followed by a very familiar, feminine voice. Her other best friend. Casey Novak.
"Liv, honey. Let me in" she said softly, tapping on the stall door.
Olivia slowly and reluctantly opened the door before resuming her former position of her knees up to her chest and her arms wrapped around her legs.
Casey sat down beside the sobbing detective. "Oh honey" she whispered as she rubbed gentle circles on Olivia's back.
"Did someone call you?" she asked in between sobs, looking up at her friend.
Casey nodded. "Yeah, they did, honey. They're concerned"
"I hate Kathy"
"Why?" asked the confused ADA.
"Cos she gets to have Elliot and I don't. I confessed my love for him and he still left" she cried.
"Oh, Liv. He might come to his senses and realise what he is missing"
Olivia nodded. "I hope you're right"
Casey helped Olivia up and took her home.
"Come on, Liv. Why don't you snuggle up on the couch and watch some daytime TV. You rarely get to do that anymore"
"I remember in high school when we used to ditch school to just watch some pathetic TV show" Olivia smiled as she sat down on the couch. "You wanna join?"
"Um, sure. Why not? I've already asked for the day off" she replied as she sat beside her best friend.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A week went by and Olivia was still mopping around. But she kept trying to convince herself that she hated Kathy and didn't need Elliot.
Another night came and Olivia was mopping around her apartment, watching some late night talk show when there was a knock at the door. She reluctantly got up and answered it to find Casey in a black skirt and shinny purple one sleeved top.
"Get dressed, Liv" she said walking in.
Olivia shrugged and rolled her eyes. "Why?"
"We going clubbing with Alex, Melinda and Monique. They're meeting us there"
Olivia just nodded and headed in to her bedroom. She re-emerged about ten minutes later wearing a long black skirt and a red halter neck top with flat shinny black shoes.
Olivia was silent the whole car ride, which concerned Casey. Olivia was rarely this quiet, but she had been since Elliot left her heart broken. She was determined to help Olivia find a new man.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As Casey, Alex, Melinda and Monique all danced, Olivia just sat at the bar.
A tall, surfy looking man, who was about 6ft 2 with blonde hair and blue eyes walked up to her smiling.
"Hi, I'm Dominic. What's your name, beautiful?"
Olivia looked up at him, blushing. "Oh my God, he's so hot" she thought to herself. She pushed some stray hair back behind her ear. "I'm Olivia"
"Is this seat taken, Olivia?" he asked referring to the seat beside her.
"Is now"
He sat beside her and a conversation instantly sparked between them.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Casey, Alex, Melinda and Monique saw the interaction between Olivia and the mystery blonde haired man and smiled.
"Let's just hope it works out for her sake" Alex said and the other three nodded.
The conversation between Olivia and Dominic lasted a little over an hour, before they both stood. Dominic took Olivia's hand in his and they walked over to Olivia's friends.
"Hey guys, this is Dominic. Dom, this is Casey, Alex, Melinda and Monique" she said introducing them.
"Hi" they all answered.
"Sorry, guys, but I'm going home with Dominic" she said smiling.
"Sure, Liv. Have fun. Nice meeting you, Dominic" Casey said.
And they all exchanged goodbyes before Olivia and Dominic left the club.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dominic took Olivia to his house. It was two stories. He gave her a tour of his house. There were five bedrooms, two bathrooms, not including his en-suite. There was a hot tub in the en-suite. There was a huge dining room, kitchen and living room. There was even a room out the back connected to the rest of the house with a glass roof. Dominic then took Olivia out the back and showed her the huge, Olympic swimming pool.
Olivia gasped in shock. He was rich.
"So Olivia, you want a beer?" he asked as they walked back in to the kitchen.
"Yes, please"
The night ended with the two of them making out on his couch before they fell asleep in each other's arms. Olivia didn't normally trust this quickly, but for some reason she felt safe with him.
