If you read this while it was an EO story, don't spoil it for everyone else. This is not deja vu, nor am I taking anyone's idea. I originally posted this as EO, but now EO is just eh to me. Besides the ship change, there are other changes and probably will be more changes to come. Obviously, this an AU story and I own nothing but my characters. Enjoy :)

Six months earlier...

"The state of New York gives Olivia Benson full parental custody over Calvin Arliss. Case dismissed." Judge Donelly slammed the gravel down.

Tears flooded Olivia's eyes. She thought it was all a dream. Sure she didn't give birth to Calvin, but he was hers; Olivia was going to be a mom. She was brought out of her reverie when Calvin almost tackled her to the ground with a hug.

"Liv, I get to stay with you." He held her tight, afraid that he might lose her if he let go.

Olivia returned the gesture. "I know. I know." She fought back tears.

"Liv, Liv. Wake up." Calvin was sitting on the bed trying his best to wake Olivia up, but she was a heavy sleeper on her days off. He stood up. "Mom!"

Olivia immediately woke up. "What's wrong?"

He laughed. "Nothing. My first game is today and you were knocked out cold."

Olivia smiled. "Right. Give me 15 minutes."

"No rush. Cheerios or Cap'n Crunch?"

Olivia smirked. "C'mon now? I thought you knew me better. Cap'n Crunch any day." She said as she got out of the bed.

"Okay. 15 minutes." Calvin walked out of the room.

Olivia walked into the bathroom and showered quickly. She wrapped her towel around her and brushed her teeth. She walked out of the bathroom and over to her closet. She picked out a pair dark rinse Bermuda shorts, a lilac V-neck, and black flip flops.

"Liv! Your cereal is getting soggy." Calvin yelled.

Olivia smiled. "I'm coming." She threw her shoulder length hair into a ponytail and walked out the room.

Calvin was sitting on the couch, in his uniform, watching TV.

Olivia walked over to the bar and grabbed her bowl. She joined Calvin on the couch. "Nervous?"

He shook his head. "Coach Brian said I'm the best kicker on the team. If I was goalie I would be nervous."

Olivia smiled. Ever since Calvin joined soccer, Brian was all he talked about. Olivia herself has never met Brian, though. Casey was always the one who picked up and dropped off Calvin at practice. "You sure he doesn't tell everybody that?"

"No. He told me in front of the whole team. He said that they could pick up some things from me." Calvin said proudly.

"Wow. So I don't have to check his background? You like him right?" Truth be told, Olivia already did a background check. He was as clean as a whistle. He was a math teacher at a Brooklyn high school and from his driver's license, he was a good looking man.

Calvin shrugged. "It's just nice to have a man to talk to, since I didn't grow up with a dad." Calvin didn't like talking about his childhood and Olivia understood why. In a lot of ways, she and Calvin were similar, except Olivia wished she had somebody like her to save her from her mom.

Olivia sat her bowl on the table. "So, you see him as a father figure." Olivia said more as a statement.

"Yeah, I guess." He paused for a moment. "When are you getting married?"

Olivia choked on the spit she was swallowing. She started coughing. "What?"

Calvin smiled. "You heard me. I've been with you for six months to this day and you haven't been on a date."

"Well between you and work, I don't have ti..."

"Lies. You do have time to go on dates. You can send me over Casey's house on Fridays."

Olivia crossed her arms. "Why are you so worried about my dating life?"

"Well even though you have the perfect child..." He pointed to himself. "...you need the nearly perfect husband, so we can have a perfect family."

Olivia chuckled. "When you find this nearly perfect husband for me, I'll like to meet him."

Calvin eyes lit up and he jumped from the couch. "Coach is single!"

Olivia shook her head. "No. I don't need you playing matchmaker for me."

"Oh, come on Liv! He's perfect for you. Wait until you meet him."

Olivia stood up. "You need to stop hanging out with Casey. I am capable of finding a boyfriend."

He crossed his arms and tapped his foot. "Oh really? So where is your boyfriend?"

Olivia smiled. "He's probably recording an album. You know how busy Blake Shelton can be these days."

He shook his head. "I'm out of the house in five years. It's either a dog or a husband. You pick." He walked in his room leaving Olivia to think.

Truth be told, Olivia stopped looking for love a long time ago. She was used to being alone. It scared her that she was okay with being alone. Yes, she did long for a child and husband, but she figured it was too late. She was content and happy with Calvin. One step at a time.

After the game, Brian treated the boys to pizza for the win. Calvin took Casey aside to discuss his plan.

"So Liv told me that you're trying to set her up with your coach." Casey crossed her arms.

"I am. I mean they're both single, so why not?"

"They have to like each other."

"They will when they get to talk to each other, like today."

Casey smiled. "Sometimes I want to adopt you; this would be one of those times."

Calvin laughed. "I feel so wanted. So you get Liv and I'll get Coach?"

Casey nodded and walked over to Olivia.

Calvin walked over to Brian. "Hey Coach, I want you to meet my mom."

"I thought the red head was your mom."

Calvin smiled. "That's my mom's best friend."

"Oh." Brian nodded and followed Calvin to where Olivia and Casey were standing.

"Mom, this is Coach Brian, coach this is my mom."

Both Olivia and Calvin agreed it would be easier for him to call her mom when in public instead of explaining the story. Occasionally he would slip up and call her mom at home, and it made Olivia smile. She realized though he only called her mom if she wasn't paying attention or he was being serious with her.

"Hi, I'm Brian." He said holding out his hand.

Olivia turned around and their eyes locked. They both stared at each other for a couple seconds, but it felt like hours. Olivia cleared her throat and held out her hand. "Hi, I'm Olivia."

Brian smiled. "Nice to meet you. Your son is great on the field." He tilted his head towards Calvin.

Olivia heart fluttered a little. His smile was just as beautiful as his hazel eyes. "Thank you. I'm glad he found something that he likes."

Casey and Calvin slowly walked away from the two.

Brian soon felt nervous. He had a beautiful woman standing in front of him and he couldn't think straight. He tried his hardest not to look at the obvious cleavage coming out the top of her shirt, and he couldn't help but notice the way the shorts were hugging her hips.

Olivia took her time to examine Brian. His jersey was loose fitted, but she could still tell he had a nice both looked back in each other eyes at the same time. They both blushed and looked away for a moment, but looked back at each other.

"Uh, so Calvin has told me a lot about you."

Olivia chuckled. "Let me guess, that I'm single?"

Brian smiled and nodded. "Ding ding ding! We have a winner."

"I'm going to have to talk to that kid." Olivia said only half joking. "He thinks I need help finding somebody."

"I don't know who wouldn't want you."Brian said before thinking.

Olivia was taken back. She was used to men coming on strong, but not in a way that made her feel special. "It's not that, I just don't have the time."

"Yeah, I understand." Brian thought they had a connection and maybe he could take her on a date, but she wouldn't make time for him.

Olivia felt the mood change and quickly wanted to leave. She was never good with awkward moments. However, before she could walk away, her phone rang. It was Captain. She sighed. "Sorry, I have to take this." She answered the call. "Benson." She looked out the window and saw a man running. "Captain, I think I see our guy." She hung up and ran out of the pizzeria. She silently cursed herself for wearing flip flops. "Police! Stop!"

The suspect looked back and ran faster.

Everybody was outside the pizzeria watching the chase. Brian looked where they were headed and knew a shortcut. He started running through the alley. He ran as fast as he could. He hopped over a fence and saw the suspect. He sped up and tackled him.

Olivia was somewhat relieved to see Brian because she did not want to explain to Cragen how she lost a suspect that was that close. She caught up with them. "Thanks."

Nick pulled up and jumped out of the car. "I got it from here." He threw the suspect against the wall. "You're under arrest."

Brian was trying to catch his breath. "So you're a cop?"

Olivia smiled. "Yeah."

That's hot. "I used to be one before I decided to become a teacher. That's cool, though."

Nick passed the suspect to a uniform. "You coming?"

Olivia looked up at him. "On my day off? What the hell did he do?"

"The boy's mom caught him trying to molest her son." Nick looked at Brian. "He's on your team."

Olivia saw Brian clench his fists and his jaw tighten. She turned to him. "Calm down." She looked back at Nick. "Yeah, I'm coming."

Olivia was sitting at her desk finishing paperwork.

"So is he your boyfriend?" Nick asked Olivia without looking away from his screen.

"Who?"

"You know, the soccer coach."

Olivia blushed and hoped Nick didn't look at her. "No. He's Calvin's coach and obviously a Good Samaritan."

"Sure."

It's been about three days since Olivia had seen him. She found him attractive and if it wasn't for catching a case, she could have gotten to know him better. "I have no reason to lie to you."

"Didn't said you lied."

"You didn't say you believed me either."

Nick finally looked over at Olivia. "No need to get defensive."

"I'm not." She sighed. "Just start minding your damn business."

"Do we have a problem?"

She narrowed her eyes at him. "Yeah. For the last 14 years you've been concerned with my dating life. Do I ask about you and Maria all the time? No. What happens in my life outside this squad room is none of your damn business."

Fin looked at the clock on his computer. "Didn't you have to pick Calvin up from practice today?"

Olivia looked at her watch. "Shit." She stood up and started gathering her stuff. She walked over to the entrance when Calvin and Brian walked into the precinct.

"I told you she would forget me." Calvin said like it was something he was used to. He was also holding an ice pack over his eye.

"What the hell happened to your eye?" Olivia said looking at Brian with anger in her eyes.

"Mom, it's no big deal. I got kicked."

"You play soccer! Why was your face by somebody's foot?"

Brian smiled. "You would be surprised. The kid tried to do a move he saw on TV and Calvin got hurt. I handled everything, though."

Olivia crossed her arms and raised her eyebrow. "Let me see it."

Calvin removed the ice pack to show his red, bruised, swollen eye. "It's not even that bad. It doesn't hurt anymore."

Olivia sighed then looked at Brian. "Thank you for dropping him off. I owe you."

Brian shook his head. "No it's okay. These kids are like my kids."

"I insist, at least a cup of coffee."

Calvin nudged Brian in the side. "Accept it." He whispered.

Brian got Calvin's hint and smiled. "I do like coffee. I guess I can take you up on that offer."

Olivia turned around to see Fin and Nick staring. "See you guys tomorrow."

Olivia, Brian, and Calvin left leaving Fin and Nick to digest what happened. They both gave each other that look.

"Two months."

"Two weeks. The way Casey has been talking about this, they're going to be together soon."

"$50?"

Fin nodded. "You got a deal."

Olivia, Brian, and Calvin walked into a cafe down the street from Olivia's apartment. They walked up to the counter. "Hey Josh. Calvin and I will have our usual..." She turned around to face Brian. "..what about you?"

Brian cleared his throat as he met Olivia's eyes. He honestly hoped she didn't catch him staring at her backside. "Uhh, get me whatever she's having."

Calvin and Olivia snickered.

Josh smiled. "So we got one apple juice and a chocolate chip muffin and two hot chocolates with a chocolate bar in it with a smiley face made out chocolate flakes in the extra whip cream?"

"Uh, yeah. Sounds great."

"Coming right up." Josh walked away.

"So shall we find a table?" Olivia suggested.

Calvin had already started walking towards his and Olivia's favorite table. Brian and Olivia followed him. Calvin sat on the chair to the right leaving Olivia no choice but to sit next to Brian.

"I thought I was buying you coffee." Olivia joked.

Brian smiled. "I thought you liked coffee."

She crossed her arms. "Is it because I'm a cop?"

Brian nodded and chuckled. "Absolutely."

She laughed. "Alright you got me there. I'm trying to cut down on caffeine." Olivia didn't know why she felt so comfortable talking to somebody she barely knew.

Calvin was happy they were getting along. He knew Olivia deserved happiness more than anyone. His plan was to keep to quiet so they could find out more about each other.

Josh came over to the table with their drinks. "Here you guys go."

Olivia pulled out some money.

Brian stopped her. "I got it. My mom would kill me if she knew I had a woman paying for me."

Calvin slapped his forehead with his free hand. "Idiot."

"Brian, I said I owed you. This is me owing you. It's a cup of hot chocolate, not dinner."

Brian being the stubborn, gentleman he was, he was not going down without a fight. "At least let me get half."

Olivia shook her head and handed Josh the twenty dollars. "Keep the change."

Josh smiled. "Have a good day Calvin and Olivia." He walked away.

Olivia took a sip of her hot chocolate. "Mhm. This is perfect."

Brian looked down at the melting flakes. "Yeah it really is." Only he wasn't talking about the drink. This was only his second time being around Olivia and it was the happiest he'd ever been.

"So you used to be a cop?"

"Yeah, but I have a child so I needed a less dangerous job."

Olivia choked on the hot liquid. "A child? How old?"

He pulled out his phone like a proud father and showed Olivia a picture of his two year old daughter, Jade.

"She's beautiful."

"Thank you." He put his phone away. "I wanted to make sure that I saw her grow up."

"That's amazing. She doesn't come to games?"

"It's not my weekend." He slightly smiled. "What about you? What happened with you and Calvin's dad?"

Calvin choked on his apple juice and started coughing. "She wouldn't date him even if you paid her. I'm adopted."

Brian immediately felt like an idiot. "Oh. Sorry..."

Olivia smiled. "You didn't know. Don't apologize. Me getting him is another story for another time."

Brian's eyes lit up. "So you're saying there's going to be a next time?" He tried to hide his obvious flirting.

Olivia acted like she didn't notice the flirting. "Yeah. We still have the whole season ahead of us and I wouldn't miss a game for anything."

Calvin sighed. He was really getting tired of them beating around the bush. It was obvious they liked each other. He groaned loudly. "He wants to go on a date with you, mom ."

Both Brian and Olivia blushed. "Well I didn't think he would blurt it out..."

"Well why didn't you just ask? I wouldn't mind going out with you." She smirked seeing how nervous he was.

Brian rubbed the back of his neck. "Yeah, I mean only if it's okay with you. If you don't want to, I totally understand." He rambled out.

Olivia smiled at his nervousness. "Just give me a date, and I'll clear it with my Captain."

Brian tried not to hide his excitement. He didn't even understand why he was so excited because he only met this woman a few days ago, but it felt like they'd known each other for a lifetime. "Friday night okay with you?"

"Uh, Calvin and..."

Calvin interrupted her. "She's free."

Olivia gave him a what are you doing look.

Calvin understood the look. "I'm getting you out of the house." He replied. "We can do our movie night another time."

Brian smiled. "So it's a date?"

"Yes. Friday night at what time?"

"Seven. I'll text you the location."

She grinned. "You might need my number."

Three days passed and Friday was finally here. Olivia was never the type to be nervous for a first date. She didn't get her hopes up for them either. She either got called in on a case or the date ended early because the guy was a creep. However, she felt like Brian was different.

Casey was working on the finishing touches on Olivia's makeup. "You look hot." She said as she dabbed more lip gloss on Olivia's already over glossed lips.

"Casey, I don't want it to look like I dipped my lips in grease."

"Oh shut up." She spun Olivia around so she can see the final product.

Brian told Olivia to dress comfortably so she had on a red tank top, a black leather jacket, black skinny jeans, and black strapped, wooden wedges. Casey had curled soft body waves into her hair and added eye make-up, and lip gloss. "I look..."

"Perfect!" Casey shrieked. "You're growing up so fast."

Olivia rolled her eyes. "Shut up." She walked out the bathroom. "I'm leaving." She grabbed her clutch purse.

"Don't do anything I wouldn't do. Have fun!"

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

"A corner store? How romantic." Olivia said as she walked up to Brian.

He was wearing dark rinse jeans and a red button-up shirt. "I knew I saw you peeking in my window." He grinned when he saw they were matching.

Olivia smacked his arm with her clutch before they hugged.

Brian wanted to keep his arm around her and bring her closer to him. He loved the perfume she had on and planned to find out what it was.

The hug lasted only a few seconds but felt like a lifetime to them. Olivia felt shivers go down her spine when Brian kissed her cheek. She pulled away smiling. "So please tell me our first date isn't going to be in a corner store."

Brian chuckled. "It's not. I promise. We're here to get snacks for our date."

She raised an eyebrow. "Snacks for dinner? Is this what you're teaching the kids?"

"No. Just stop asking questions before we're late."

Olivia rolled her eyes and smiled. "Fine, but you're paying this time."

He patted his pocket. "Trust me, I know."

They walked in the store.

"So get whatever you want. We'll be there for a couple of hours, so get enough because I don't share food."

"Touché, coach." Olivia shot him a flirty smile before she disappeared in the chip aisle. She felt natural being around him. It didn't feel like a first date, it felt more like a fourth or fifth date. She grabbed some barbecue chips before she walked over to the cooler.

"Not only do they take forever to get ready, they take forever to pick out food." Brian yelled from the counter.

Olivia smirked and walked to the counter. "Do we have a problem?"

"No, unless you want one." He smirked.

Olivia laughed, rolled her eyes, and place her things on the counter. "Smart man."

"Cute couple." The cashier said in a thick Chinese accent.

"Thanks." Brian said as he wrapped an arm around Olivia.

Olivia didn't move. She just smiled. "Although I'm the cute part of the couple."

"How long you been together?"

"It's our first date." They both said at the same time.

"First date? And you here? She too beautiful to be treated like this."

Olivia laughed. "I told you so."

"You don't even know what's up my sleeve. This is just the beginning."

"Okay. I believe you."

The cashier handed Brian the bag and then looked at Olivia. "Do better."

Olivia laughed. "Have a nice night."

They walked out and started walking down the street towards Brian's car.

"I think you should take his advice and do better."

He smiled. "I will." He reached for Olivia's hand.

Olivia moved her hand away. "Are your hands clean?"

Brian groaned and grabbed her hand. "Clean as a whistle."

"You're aggressive." And God did Olivia love it. Usually men were afraid of her when they found out she was a cop, but Brian was different.

"I was looking for the word sweet, but I guess aggressive is okay too."

"I'm just glad you're not a punk or this date would have been over." She said with a straight face.

Brian looked over at her. "Oh you're serious."

She nodded.

"You really end dates before they're supposed to be over?"

"Uh, yeah. Or usually I get a case and it ends anyways."

"Ruthless." Brian smirked. "You're starting to sound perfect." He opened the door for her.

"I'm far from perfect." She said closing the door.

Brian and Olivia walked into a small park.

"I figured we could eat some junk food and act like teenagers for a few hours."

Olivia smiled. "Well I don't have on standing up for a few hours shoes." She look down at her feet.

"I said dress comfortable, but I always come prepared. I have a couple of blankets and pillows. We can sit over there." He pointed to a discrete location under a tree.

"Sounds good to me."

They walked over to the tree and Brian started to lay out the blankets. Olivia checked her phone and saw she had a text message from Casey.

How's the date so far? Hope you haven't gotten called into work or I'll kick Cragen's ass myself. I hope I'm not interrupting anything either ;)

Olivia smiled and replied:

So far so good. More details afterwards. I wouldn't go if Cragen called because I'm having that much fun. You're not interrupting...yet. ;)

"Texting your boyfriend?" Brian said jokingly.

Olivia put her phone away and grinned. "Yeah. He doesn't want me home too late and hope he isn't interrupting anything."

Brian sat down on the blanket. "He can't interrupt if you're standing over there."

Olivia smiled as she sat down. "Are you trying to come on to me?"

"Maybe."

She raised an eyebrow. "Cocky? I think it's time to end the date."

He held his hands up in defeat. "No need to go that far, technically it's just getting started." He passed Olivia her pop and chips. "You sure you'll be okay with just this?"

"Yes. You would be surprised how long I go without eating when we catch a case."

The first band starting to play. From what Olivia and Brian could hear, it sounded like rock alternative.

"I may not be a doctor but I'm pretty sure that's unhealthy."

She shrugged. "It probably is, but I can always eat later."

"So you're really dedicated to your job?"

Olivia nodded.

"I like that. How long you been on the force?"

Olivia chuckled and threw her head back. "Almost 16 long years."

"Wow, that's impressive." He said proudly.

"Yeah. Most people don't last more than two years."

"It takes a special kind of person to do that job." Brian looked over at her. "Enough about work though. When you're not kicking ass and taking names, what do you do for fun?"

Olivia smiled. He couldn't be real. All guys wanted to talk about the crimes and things she got to see. One guy actually wanted her to give vivid details about the most gruesome crime scene. "Well..." She paused and thought for a moment and then chuckled. "If I'm not at work, I'm with Calvin."

"Oh come on. You're lying?"

"I'm telling the truth. You should have seen me before I got Calvin. I was at work 24/7."

"Why though? You don't have any family?"

Olivia knew where this conversation was headed, and quite frankly she hated it. "I have a half-brother. That's about it. I never met my dad."

"Your mom?"

"Was raped. I'm a product of rape. We never did family things because she became an alcoholic after her attack."

Brian was taken back. "Wow."

"Sorry for dumping all of that on you at once. This is usually where guys leave because they can't handle it." She looked anywhere but at him.

Brian grabbed her hand. "I can handle it. I'm glad you told me. Don't apologize for expressing your feelings."

She smiled. "Thanks. What about you? What do you do when you're not teaching or coaching?"

"Spoil the hell out of my daughter." He chuckled.

"I'm pretty sure her mom hates that."

"She does." He smirked. "But I can't say no to her." He paused. "You're okay with me having a child and everything?"

She nodded. "As long as you don't go falling back in love with her, I don't see the problem. I have Calvin."

"True, but you're not involved with Calvin's dad so I wouldn't have to worry about that. Some women have a problem, and I was just making sure we were okay."

"Don't give me a reason not to trust you, and we won't have a problem."

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Brian and Olivia were laying down on the blankets. They were holding hands listening to the last band of the night. It was a jazz band and was probably one of the best performances they heard all night. They didn't pay much attention to the music. They were too busy caught up in each other. After endless corny jokes shared between the two it was time to go.

"You want to get going now? I don't want to keep your boyfriend hanging." Brian hoped she'd say no, and maybe they could find something else to do, but he remembered she had Calvin at home.

Olivia smiled and sat up never letting go of his hand. "Yeah. I'm pretty sure he misses me."

He laughed. "You got a little pimp in you."

"I swear my best friends are rubbing off on me." She chuckled. "The sad part is, now they're dating each other."

He grinned. "You're kidding? How is that working out for them?"

"Lots of arguments that I somehow get in the middle of. They're perfect for each other, but just don't want to commit. It's just a huge headache to be honest with you."

Brian shook his head. "Good God, you have a lot of patience."

She smiled. "I don't really have a choice with those two."

They both stood up and stretched. Brian changed the subject. "Well there was some great performances."

"There was some bad ones too." She straighten her shirt.

Brian nodded. "That is a true statement." He started gathering up the things. "It wasn't that bad."

"I still enjoyed it. Except for the rock. All the yelling was horrible."

He laughed. "I've never liked rock. Or my parents never liked me listening to rock. One or the other."

She shrugged and chuckled. "Probably both."

Brian walked Olivia up to the door of her apartment building.

"Did you have a nice night, Olivia?" Peter, the night doorman, asked.

"It was great." She smiled and faced Brian. "I had fun."

He smiled. "That's great. I felt alive again."

Olivia opened the door to the apartment. "I felt young again."

Brian stood outside the door. "Young again? You can't be a day over 34."

She turned around. "That's the nicest thing anyone has ever said to me." She said laughing. "You can come up, you know? Unless you're crazy, then Peter will handle you."

Brian looked at the old man and smiled. "Okay. I just didn't want to overstay my welcome." He walked in the building and followed Olivia to the elevator.

They both stepped into the elevator.

"That's horrible. You deserve compliments."

"I do get them." She smirked. "Have you seen me? I have no problem getting them."

He grinned. "Cocky."

She rolled her eyes. "Bullshit."

They elevator doors opened. "Did I strike a nerve?"

Olivia started walking down the hall. "Nope. You can't get to me that easily." She stopped in front of her door.

"We'll see." Brian placed hand above Olivia's head on the wall.

She smiled and crossed her arms. "Okay."

"I really had fun with you tonight."

"I did too. Thanks." Olivia met his eyes. Their faces were inches apart.

"Soooo can I take you out again? I promise it won't be corny."

Olivia giggled and nodded. "Yeah. I'd like that."

"Same time next week?"

"I'll have to ask my boyfriend." She smirked. "But I'm probably free."

Brian slowly inched closer to her face. "He really shouldn't let you go on dates with other men. Somebody might just sweep you off your feet."

"Oh. I doubt that would happen. It's pretty serious."

"Really?" He was staring at her full, glossed lips. He wanted to kiss her so badly.

"Yeah." She bit her bottom lip on purpose, knowing he was staring.

Brian leaned closer to close the space between them and kissed her. Olivia was in shock at first, but relaxed.

Brian pulled away after ten seconds smiling. "Still serious?"

She shook her head not wanting to talk after that kiss.

He leaned in for another kiss, but was stopped when the door opened. "Geesh. Let the lady breathe." Casey joked.

Calvin popped behind her. "It's past your curfew."

Olivia let go of the air she didn't know she was holding in. "Thanks for the privacy, guys."

Brian smiled and kissed her forehead. "I'll see you guys later." He walked away.

He got to the end of the hallway, before Olivia called out to him. "Brian!"

He spun around. "Yeah?"

"Call or text me when you get home okay?"

He smiled and nodded. "I will. Goodnight." He stepped in the elevator and smiled at Olivia until the door closed.

"Well you had fun. That was your first successful first date since...?"

Olivia rolled her eyes and pushed passed Casey. "Shut up." She dropped her purse and keys. She walked over to the couch.

Casey sat next to her. "What happened?"

Olivia smiled and began to tell her everything that happened. After she was done, the smile on her face grew wider.

"Oh my God! I'm so happy for you, Liv!"

"It's just a first date. Calm down."

"The first of many dates!" She squealed.

Olivia got up. "Go." She pointed to the door. "You are basically sobbing over this. Go home to your man."

Casey got up and smiled. She hugged Olivia. "Fine. I've been kicked outta better places." She grabbed her purse. "Bye, Calvin!"

"Bye, Casey!" He yelled from his room.

Casey left.

Olivia was finally alone and could process tonight. Did I really have a successful date? The kiss. She touched her lips. It's just a first date. Calm down, Olivia. She walked towards the bedrooms.

"Goodnight, Calvin."

He was lying in bed, watching TV. "Night, Liv. Glad you had fun tonight."

She grinned. "Me too." She closed his door and walked to her bedroom. She closed the door behind her and started to strip out of her clothes. She had just laid down when she got a text message. She couldn't help but grin when she saw Brian's name.

I'm home safely. :) I really had fun with you tonight. I hope you sleep tight. Goodnight, beautiful.

She replied.

Good. I have fun with you too. I really had fun also. I needed this night. Sleep tight,handsome.

Huge thank you to my beta that has to deal with my horrible grammar and constant nagging. Reviews would be great :)
