Please Don't Leave Me- E/O
Chapter 1- Lost without you.
Olivia had just returned from Oregon a few weeks ago and she was not due back to work until later this afternoon. Elliot was quite worried about her though, because he had called her and text her, but she would not reply or call back. He even dropped by her place a few times a week, but every time, she was not there. He knew that she had not wanted to go to Oregon in the first place, because things between them had been left badly. He knew that she found out about the adventures of Elliot and Danni, and he wanted more than anything to sort things out between them now, but to Elliot, it felt like Olivia did not want that to happen.
Monday morning, and Elliot awoke to a small sliver of light peeking through the crack in the curtains. He got out of bed, got dressed and drew the curtains back to reveal the beautiful summers New York day that was in front of him. He opened his bedroom window a fraction, and the sound of cars and people busy at work filled his ears. He inhaled some of the fresh air and stared out onto the street below him. He watched as mothers took their children to school, business people strolled to work with their morning coffee and the cars sat in the huge queues as far down the street as the eye could saw. There was one woman that caught his eye in particular. She was tall and slim, with shoulder length blonde hair and big, bright green eyes. She had a little girl who was skipping down the sidewalk by the hand and she was walking her to school. The more Elliot looked at this incredible woman, the more she reminded him of Olivia. He watched her closely, hoping she would turn around so he could get a better look at her beautiful face.
Fortunately, she did. Elliot stared at her for a few seconds, and then grabbed his cell phone. He punched in a number, and waited for the dial tone. A few seconds later, the women he had been staring at, looked at her cell phone that had begun to ring, but rejected the call. Elliot's eyes widened as he tossed the phone on the ground, grabbed his coat, and bolted out of his apartment building. He ran down the street, just as the women and the little girl turned the corner and waited at the bus stop. As Elliot reached the corner, the bus had just arrived and people were climbing in. He saw the women and child get on the bus and he got on at the very end. The women and child were sitting at the front of the bus, and Elliot sat a few seats behind them. The bus journey was long, but Elliot did not care. His eyes were fixed in the direction of the women and child the whole way there. When the bus came to a halt, Elliot looked around outside and realised that they were in Hempstead. What the hell is she doing here?
