" What do you think the guys would say if they found out I actually had a date on Valentine's day?" He asked with a grin, wrapping his arms around her.
She snorted, " What would they say if they found out I've been dating you for a three months?"
"Should I be insulted?" He asked, pouting slightly.
"No, but I think we should tell them about our relationship before the Valentine's Day party tomorrow." Olivia said lightly.
"What? Oh, come on..."
"John..." She warned, " Am I gonna have to bribe you? It that what it's gonna take for you to stop being so paranoid about other people's reactions to us?"
"I'll always be paranoid." He said with false pride.
"Well at least he admits it." She said sarcastically, but then sighed, "but seriously, please?"
"Depends," began Munch, " what's this bribe you were speaking off?" Olivia pulled out of Munch's embrace long enough to take a playful swat at him. She then gave him a small smirk. " I have some info on Fin you wouldn't want to pass up." She said in a sing-song voice, knowing how much her boyfriend would love something to tease his partner with.
"What?" He asked, not really believing her.
" Nice try, but first you have to promise that you'll help me tell Elliot and Fin about us tomorrow."
Munch sighed, " Fine. But if Elliot plays the big brother routine on me..."
"I know, I know. Pull him off before he strangles you." Olivia recited mockingly. She then got serious again.
"So, do you promise?"
Munch bent his head downward slightly and gave her a tender kiss.
"Yeah. I promise." He said softly.
" thanks." Said Olivia, kissing him back. When they pulled apart, Munch asked eagerly,
"So what's this secret you got on Fin?"
"I don't have one." She said simply.
"Liv!" He whined.
"I'm kidding, relax." She laughed, " I never knew big bad John Munch could whine like a little girl."
" Yeah, haha." He said dryly. " Now what's the secret?"
" I know who Fin is taking to the party tomorrow." She said.
"No way, he actually has a date?!" Asked Munch.
" Yeah," God, she loved messing with him like this."but don't you wanna know who?"
"Who?" he asked curiously.. Olivia paused for a moment before saying,
"Melinda"
" Whoo! Way to go Fin!" Exclaimed Munch. Olivia pulled away from him, giving him an angry and questioning glare. She was faking, of course, but he didn't know that.
Munch resisted flinching under her penetrating gaze,
"Uh, not...not that I would want to ask her out or anything, honey." He said in the typical apology tone that men always seemed to use. Though in Olivia's opinion, it was especially cute coming from him. She continued pretending to be angry for a few more seconds before she couldn't take it anymore and burst out laughing.
" You should have seen your face!"
Munch gaped, realizing he'd been played," Oh no fair! You just wanted to force me to apologize!"
"Yup." She said proudly. " And guess what, it worked." She began walking past him, but Munch blocked her path. "oh no, your not getting away that easily." He joked..He kissed her passionately as he sat down on the couch, pulling her onto his lap.
" Melinda and Fin will make a cute couple, don't you think?" Asked Olivia once they finally pulled apart. She didn't move off of his lap though, finding it much more comfortable than the couch.
"Yeah, I guess," He agreed lightly, " Actually, when I think about it, it was bound to happen eventually."
She made a small sound of agreement before leaning down and kissing him again.
