A/N: This fic is inspired by the song by Hinder- Better Than Me. Amazing song! Please R&R. Enjoy!
Her fingers glided over the keyboard as she searched theatres in the area that she was going to see with her best friend. It was a rare thing since the detective didn't have time to just take it easy.
She was sipping coffee and was in a computer café. She just wanted to take it easy and be in public rather then be locked up in her apartment on her day off. Detective Olivia Benson wasn't the type to get days off all the time.
She took a sip of her coffee and glanced at the man sitting by her staring blankly at his computer.
"Fucking slut" He mumbled bitterly.
"Nice" Olivia nodded at him.
He looked over immediately at her. "Sorry" He quickly apologized. "Didn't think I actually said that out loud."
"It's ok" She smirked and returned her chocolate eyes on the screen.
"That's a bad movie," The man added, looking at her screen. "In case you were going to watch it with your boyfriend. It's bad. Horrible ending."
Olivia smirked and looked over at him. "Thanks for ruining it."
He smiled shyly and put his hand out "Lucas"
She took his hand. "Olivia"
"Nice to meet you Olivia" Lucas let go of her hand. "So what brings you to a computer café? Boyfriend at work?"
"Maybe" She teased with a playful smirk. The truth was that she didn't have a boyfriend in a very long time. Her hectic work always got in the way. "What are you doing here?"
"Other then cursing at an email?" He teased. "I'm just chilling."
"No work? Can't help society Lucas? Volunteer somewhere."
"You want to volunteer with me?" He asked with a charming smile. "We could both use some community service. I could get off my lazy ass and you could get out of your boyfriends nice Mercedes."
Olivia's smile faded. "You don't know me."
"C'mon let me guess. You don't sip Martini's with your friends in your upper town apartment on Friday nights? On Saturday your charming boyfriend takes you to a nice restaurant."
"You don't know me. Don't assume things about me." Olivia shook her head and finished her coffee. "I don't even have a boyfriend." She tried to log off her computer but it got frozen. "C'mon."
Lucas slowly got up and stood behind her. He leaned down and pressed a couple of buttons on the keyboard. "I'm sorry about earlier. That wasn't me. Just…I don't know."
Olivia kept quiet and said nothing as he finally got her computer to work. "That's what they all say isn't it?"
He sat down by her again. "I'm sorry. I had a bad day. I don't know what got into me."
"That's fine." She grabbed her purse and got up. "Nice meeting you Lucas."
He quickly got up from his seat. "Don't leave because of me. I'm sorry. I'm horrible around women. I'm sorry."
Olivia glanced at him up and down. He did have a nice body. "Well you do suck at the flirting thing."
He smiled a little. "Can I buy you a coffee? As an apology for being such a jerk?"
Olivia kept looking at him with a hidden smile. "What will my rich boyfriend think?"
He started to blush extremely. "Ok I'm stupid." He nodded.
She smiled and nodded. "Yeah. I don't have time now though. I'm meeting my friend for a movie."
"Can I take you to dinner then please?" He asked politely. "I'm going to feel like a complete asshole all day for being so mean to you if I can't make it up to you."
Olivia nodded reluctantly. "Fine. One dinner." She grabbed a napkin and wrote her number on it. "You're on thin ice though."
He nodded and took the napkin. "Fair enough."

The waiter poured the last drop of red wine into Olivia's glass and walked away.
"So Olivia what do you do for a living?" Lucas asked as he sipped his water.
Olivia tensed up. This always ended her dates. She hated this part of the night. "I'm a cop."
Lucas let out laugh. "Seriously, what do you do?"
She smiled nervously. "I'm serious. I'm a detective. I work for the Special Victims Unit in Manhattan."
This time it was Lucas's turn to let out a nervous laugh. "Special Victims Unit?"
"Yea." She nodded and took a sip of her wine. "We investigate rape, child molestation, stuff like that."
He slowly nodded. "Oh."
Olivia knew that reaction very well. He was the type to pull back because of her job. "Yea. Oh." She took a sip of her wine. At least she was getting a free meal from this date that was going to end pretty soon. "What do you do?"
"Um…you know that computer café we met at?" He asked. She nodded. "Well…my dad and I own that."
Olivia smirked. "Family business?"
"Something like that. He does the paperwork and I run the computers." Lucas answered.
"Geek?"
"Sometimes" He answered with a playful smile. "Crazy?"
"Rarely" She answered with her own smile.
Lucas let out a laugh and nodded. "Cool."
Olivia shook her head with a smile and finished her wine.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Olivia sat on the couch in her apartment making out with Lucas. She could have guessed that this was going to be her last date with this guy. She couldn't resist at least having male contact before he completely pulled away because of her job.
She broke the kiss as he began kissing her neck. She let out a small laugh since he was playing with her hair with his hand. His other hand was holding hers. His lips were gently exploring her neck.
Olivia looked over him as he kept kissing her. He had a fit body, nice tan complexion and a nice Rolex. This wasn't a bad choice for a one-night stand.
"Lucas?" She whispered.
"Yea?" He whispered as he placed a small kiss on her lips.
She bit her bottom lip and interlaced her fingers with his. "C'mon" She got up and led him over to her bedroom. She sat down on the edge of her bed. He sat down by her.
She softly pressed her lips to his and slowly began to unbutton his shirt. Suddenly Lucas's body tensed up. She felt him force himself to calm down by starting to explore her tongue with his.
Olivia kissed him back and touched his rock hard chest. He defiantly had a nice body. She slowly grabbed his dress shirt and pushed it off his shoulders. She let the blue cotton fall on her bed.
Olivia broke the kiss and kept eye contact with him as she slid her strap on her dress off her shoulder.
She suddenly noticed Lucas's look in his blue eyes change. He seemed nervous and guilty about something. "What's wrong?"
He opened his mouth to say something but no words came out.
Olivia put her strap back on her shoulder. "Is it me?"
He quickly shook his head. "No. You're beautiful."
Olivia raised an eyebrow. "What is it?"
He shook his head and grabbed his shirt. "I should go"
"Can you at least have enough dignity to tell me why you are ditching me?" Olivia asked being very annoyed and embarrassed right now.
He licked his full lips and scratched the back of his short hair. "There are some things about me you might not understand. That is the reason I'm either getting dumped or being cheated on." He pulled his shirt on. "Either way it always ends bad. I like you so I don't want you to dump me so I have to end this right now."
Olivia looked confused. "Why would I dump you?"
He looked at the ground as his face burned red with embarrassment. "I…um…I'm a virgin. It's a long story." He got off the bed. "It was really nice meeting you Olivia" He gave her a gentle kiss on the cheek. "Bye."
Olivia was speechless at the moment. Last time she met someone that was virgin she was in high school. This guy was way too nice and way too good looking to be a virgin.
Lucas buttoned up his shirt and let out a deep breath. He left her room and went to get his jacket from her living room. He was used to this. This was the first time he actually ended it and the girl didn't dump him. No woman wanted a guy who was a virgin by choice.
Olivia came out of her room as he grabbed the doorknob. "Wait." She walked over to him before he left.
Lucas stopped. "I'm sorry if I led you on. That wasn't right."
Olivia fixed his collar on his jacket. "I'm not a bitch Lucas."
"I know" He nodded. "I just don't want you to cheat on me. I'm sick and tired of my girlfriends being tired on waiting on me and having to sleep with some other guy because I cant satisfy them. I don't want to waste your time so I should just end this before you regret me."
Olivia smirked a little "Who said I was your girlfriend?"
He closed his eyes and shook his head. "I didn't mean…I mean…well I…I should really just-" His sentence got cut off as she pressed her lips to his. He took it by surprise but kissed her back.
Olivia smirked and broke their kiss. "Shut up."
He quickly nodded. "Ok." He whispered in shock.
Olivia smiled softly and took his hand. "C'mon" She led him to her couch. "Let's watch a movie and make out."
He grinned and nodded. "Alright" Both sat down. "Thanks for being understanding."
Olivia looked over at him. If she was going to be understanding he was going to be also. "Does my job bother you?"
He thought about it. "It doesn't bother me as much as it…I don't know…I mean I'm cool with it as long as we don't talk about details on your cases."
Olivia smiled and nodded. "Fair enough. You know how you are used to girls being weird about your virginity thing?"
"Boy do I."
She smirked. "Well I'm used to guys either being scared of my job or very interested in the details. So it usually ends there."
He nodded. "I defiantly don't want to know the details so I'm not creepy."
Olivia nodded and grabbed the remote control for the TV to find a movie. "Can I ask you something?"
"Why I'm a virgin?" He guessed. Every girlfriend wanted to know this. She nodded at him. "When I was 14 years old my mom died of Breast Cancer. It was so advanced that they gave her a year to live. Her last wish was for me to…not lose my virginity until I'm married or I find the right girl. So I'm trying to keep that promise."
Olivia nodded. "Wow…that is…um."
"Stupid?"
"No" She quickly shook her head. "That is real sweet. It says a lot about you. You keep promises. I like that."
He smiled and nodded. "Thanks."
"So it's just you and your dad?"
"Yeah. He is actually not my biological dad. My mom got pregnant with me when she was 16 by some loser who didn't want to take responsibility. She met my dad when she was 19 and they got married. So he raised me."
Olivia nodded since this made so much more sense to her. His mother didn't want him to struggle like she did being a teenage parent. "You want something to drink?"
"Sure" He nodded.
Olivia got up and went to the fridge. "Um…I sort of didn't have time to shop so um…tap water?"
He smirked and nodded. "I do love water."
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Olivia woke up to the sun in her eyes. She could smell food and coffee. She didn't remember Lucas leaving last night so she guessed they fell asleep watching a movie.
She opened her eyes and spotted a blanket over her. She sat up and looked to her kitchen. Lucas was making breakfast. "Hey."
He looked up. "Good morning." He poured coffee in a cup. "We fell asleep watching that movie. I figured I make you breakfast since I woke up first."
"Thanks" She tossed the blanket to the side. "What time is it?"
"Almost nine." He answered. "Did you have to go to work or something?"
Olivia checked her cell phone. No calls. "Guess not." She was still in her dress from their date last night. "You don't mind if I go change do you?"
"No. Go ahead" He nodded. "The toast is almost done anyway."
Olivia smiled a little at him and went to her bedroom. She heard a knock on her front door. She groaned since she was half naked and about to put on her bra. "Lucas can you please answer that?"
Lucas put the eggs on the plate and then put the toast there. "Sure" he called back and went to her door. He opened it and looked at the redhead standing there. "Can I help you?"
Casey looked at the gorgeous stranger in her best friends apartment. "Um…you're not Olivia Benson."
"No" He shook his head. "She's changing. You want to come in she's almost done I think." He moved out of the doorway.
Casey nodded at him and came in. He closed the door behind her. Both stood there awkwardly for a couple of seconds.
"Lucas" He finally spoke up and put his hand out.
"Casey" She shook his hand. "Nice to meet you."
"You too" He nodded.
Olivia came out of the bedroom in tight jeans and a nice sweater. "Hey Case." She waved at the young lawyer. "Did you two meet?"
Lucas nodded. "Yeah." He pointed to the counter top in the kitchen. "Breakfast is right there. I should get going."
"Oh if you guys were going to have breakfast I can leave. It's not a problem" Casey spoke up.
"No it's fine. It's probably girl time anyway." Lucas grabbed his jacket. "I should get going to work anyway. It was nice meeting you Casey."
"You too Lucas" She nodded with a smirk.
Olivia took his hand and led him out of the apartment. She closed the door behind them. "Thanks for making me breakfast."
He nodded. "It was my pleasure. By the way I don't know how you like your coffee but I made it medium."
"Medium is fine" She smiled. "I had fun last night."
"Me too" He smiled back. "Um…can I call you…sometime?"
"I'm hoping you will." She nervously put her hands in her pockets.
"I defiantly will. I promise." He gave her a kiss on the cheek.
Olivia returned with a kiss on the lips. "See you later Lucas James."
"See you later Olivia Benson." He grinned and walked down her hall.
Olivia blushed a little feeling extremely happy. She went into her apartment again.
"I like him" Casey nodded as she squirted Ketchup on the plate that she eating off of. "Very good cook."
Olivia sat down by her and took the plate that was hers. "Yeah?"
"His eggs are to die for." Casey mumbled as she ate what was supposed to be Lucas's food. "Details. Now."
Olivia laughed a little. "There are no details" She tried the eggs. He was defiantly a very good cook.
"Oh c'mon don't hold out on me." She rolled her eyes. "Is he gentle? Rough? Likes to cuddle? Or does he just fall asleep after sex like every other man?"
"Casey I don't know. I didn't have sex with him."
"Olivia you are really going to get me mad. He is hot; he is a gorgeous, looks like he has the body of a God. How do you not have sex with someone like that?"
Olivia shrugged. She figured Lucas didn't want everyone knowing his business. "It was a first date."
"So he spent the night over? Or did he come back from his place to make you this delicious breakfast?" She stole some of Olivia's eggs.
"He spent the night. We watched a movie and fell asleep. Nothing more." Olivia stole the eggs back.
Casey shook her head. "Such a shame. Next time he comes over make sure you don't get laid so he can make breakfast again. And a lot cause I'm coming over."
Olivia laughed and nodded. "I sure will." She winked playfully at Casey as both continued to eat their breakfast.
