Author's Notes: I'm going to try my hand at action, you've been warned…
Elliot's eye's skimmed the rooftop carefully.
An anonymous tip had called in half an hour ago saying someone matching their perp's description had been seen hanging around this building but after climbing far too many stairs, he and Olivia were still drawing a blank.
'Find anything?' Elliot called up to his partner who was searching a small secluded level a few meters above him.
'Nothing.' Olivia placed her hands on her hips as she turned to face him. 'No way down either.'
Elliot raised his eyebrows, a small smirk creeping onto his lips. 'Just jump.'
A worried look passed across her face as she stared down at him. 'Are you kidding?'
He just shrugged his shoulders. 'Well if I had to boost you up there, how did you think you were going to get back down?'
Elliot watched her pale and after a few seconds decided to take pity on her. 'Come on, I'll catch you.'
She snorted wondering if she was meant to find that comforting. He was the one who wanted to check things out so thoroughly, why wasn't he up here?
'Anytime Liv...'
She sighed lowering herself into a sitting position and against her better judgment, slid of the edge.
Elliot caught her with ease and grinned as her arms latched around his neck. 'Comfy?'
She rolled her eyes trying to appear unphased by their position.'You can put me down now hero.'
He feigned a look of hurt as he placed her on the ground but he was unable to keep the smile off his face completely. 'Not really the damsel type, are you?'
It was her turn to grin as she raised an eyebrow almost expectantly. 'You've know me how long?'
'Good point.'
Elliot glanced casually at his watch as they started walking. 'You want to grab some lunch before we head back?'
She nodded shoving her hands in her pockets as they neared the door. 'Anything to prolong telling the captain this was a bust.'
They shared a knowing look before descending the stairs, both to preoccupied to notice the shadow of a figure that passed behind them...
