So in this story Elliot finally realizes he needs a Olivia.
Elliot pushed back his chair and smiled; he was done doing paperwork and finally could leave. Rubbing his face he looked at Olivia's desk where she was busy getting her stuff. "You leaving?" Elliot asked, surprised. "Yea I have a date tonight" Olivia said, pulling on her jacket and shaking out her hair. Elliot tried not to notice the way her hair cupped her face and then he realized what she said "A date? With who?" Olivia glanced at him "What? I cant get a date?" "No you can, Liv. Who is it?" Olivia just smiled "Ill see you later ok? Bye" she grabbed her purse, and left. Elliot looked at John and Fin "Do you guys know?" "Why would she tell us, El?" John asked grinning. "Why do you care, Elliot?" Fin asked looking at him. "If I do, its because Im her partner." Elliot said getting up and stretching. Who was it? Did he know the guy?
Olivia glanced at the mirror and gave her self a final check over. She was wearing a red sleeveless dress, silver heels, diamond studs, and a rose ring. Her makeup was consisting of a gold shimmery shadow, eyeliner, some blush, and dark red lipstick. She grabbed her purse just as the doorbell rang. Olivia opened the door, and Dean Porter stood there with red roses and wearing a blue suit with a white shirt "Hi" "Hi" Olivia said smiling, taking the flowers "Thank you." She smelled there sweet fragrance "There beautiful" "Like you" Dean said, smiling. Olivia blushed "Thanks" she quickly put them in a vase, and locked the door. "Ready?" Dean asked offering her his arm. Olivia linked her arm with his "Yes"
Elliot walked into his house, and threw his jacket on the chair. Usually at this time he was with Olivia having dinner…Elliot sighed heavily. The house was quiet, maybe Kathy took Eli to the park. He went to the fridge and looked inside. Milk, eggs, bacon, lettuce, and some turkey and cheese sandwiches. He took out the sandwiches and milk, and went to the living room. Elliot sat down and turned on the T.V. luckily there was a baseball game on. But Elliot couldn't concentrate. All he could think about was Olivia, and who she was with and if she was having a good time.
"I'll have the salmon, with mashed potatoes" Olivia ordered, handing her menu to the waitress. "Ok" she said, writing it down "And for you?" "A filet mignon with fries" Dean said closing his menu. "How would you like that prepared?" the red haired waitress asked taking their menus. "Well done" Dean said. "Ok it will be here shortly" she left.
Dean smiled at Olivia "I didn't have you pegged as a seafood person" Olivia laughed "You kidding me? I love it" "So tell me whats been going on since I last saw you, a year right?" "Yea" Olivia agreed. "Well, I had custody of this child…" Olivia started. She told him about Clavin, and Vicky, and some of the cases she has been doing. Olivia paused while the waitress put her food in front of her. When she left, Olivia told him about Sonya, there ADA who recently got killed, and here she fell silent. "She was a great friend?" Dean asked, concerned. "No, she wasn't. We had our differences and arguments…but still her death is such a loss you know?" Olivia said, taking a bite of her dinner. She felt the usual stinging of tears, and she pushed them back. She wasn't going to cry in front of Dean, and ruin everything. Dean reached out and put his hand on hers "Im sorry." "Thank you" Olivia said, squeezing his hand, then pulling away. "Did I ever tell you about…" Dean began.
Later, that evening Dean walked Olivia to her door. They spent the rest of the dinner telling each other funny stories, getting to know a little more about each other, and then they shared a cheesecake. "I had a great time, Dean. Thank you" Olivia said, stopping in front of her door. "Im glad you did. Maybe we can do it again?" Dean asked, smiling. Olivia's eyes twinkled "don't get your hopes up" "Hey" Dean said, laughing. "You know Im kidding" Olivia grinned. "I know" Dean said grinning "So how about tomorrow? Around eight?" "Ok" she said. They both just stood there. "Well…goodnight, Dean" Olivia said disappointed. She really wanted him to kiss her. But Dean put a hand on her arm, and looked at her. Olivia stepped a little closer, leaned her head to the side, and smiled. Dean took that as a yes, and stepped forward. He gently cupped her face and slowly brought his lips towards her. Olivia smiled, content. Its been so long since someone kissed her like this with so much passion. She had to give him credit he knew how to kiss. Dean pulled away "Night" he whispered huskily, and left. "Night" Olivia said, watching him depart.
*** The next day…
Olivia walked into the percent carrying a box of Krispey Kreme doughnuts "Hey you guys." "You brought us doughnuts, Liv? I love you!" Munch said grinning, grabbing the box from her. "Haha your welcome, John" Olivia smiled. "You look cheerful" Fin said grabbing a chocolate covered one. "I guess I am Fin" Olivia smiled settling down at her desk. "So I take it that your date went well?" Elliot asked looking at her, his blue eyes intense. "Yup" Olivia said opening up a file. "Wont you tell me who it is?" Elliot asked, ignoring Fin and Johns silent laughter. Olivia was about to respond when she got a text. Glancing at it she saw it was from Dean, making her heart jump. It said:
Good morning, beautiful hope you slept well :) I was wondering, do you want to grab lunch instead?Because I cant tonight, we caught a break on the perp we've been tailing.
Olivia smiled and replied:
Hey i did sleep well, thanks for asking :) Thats fine, just pick me up here. See you soon.
"Olivia? Hello?" Elliot interrupted. "Huh? Oh yea sorry, well your going to meet him because he's picking me up for lunch" Olivia said, putting her phone away. "We are?" John asked, smiling. "Mhmm. And I don't want any jokes, or snide remarks when he gets here, k?" Olivia warned, glancing at Elliot. "Why you looking at me?" Elliot said surprised. "You know why, El." Olivia said rolling her eyes. Ring Ring. "Benson" Olivia answered. She listened for a minute "We'll be right down" She hung up. "They just found a body in a art gallery. Lets go" Elliot and Olivia got up, downed there jackets and left.
Later on, after seeing the body and finding out the girl belonged to a company called Luscious Grapes, they were examining the evidence. "All companies have problems, they can't be that happy as they claim to be" Olivia said, looking at the tape introducing the members of the company and how they claimed they were all a big happy family.
Olivia glanced at the time and realized she had ten minutes until Dean came. "I'll be right back." Grabbing her purse she went to the bathroom and freshened up just as she was putting her stuff into her desk, Dean arrived. "Hey Olivia" he said, smiling. "Dean. Hi" Olivia said, smiling. "Ready? I heard theres this great place where they make your own pizzas in front of your eyes. You game?" "Sure. Let me just get my jacket." Olivia said. "Hold on, your dating Dean?" Elliot said, coming out of the captain's office. Liv bit her lip "Yes" "WHy you giving this asshole another chance?" Elliot said, glaring at Dean.''Because i want to?" Olivia answered shrugging on her jacket. "But you hurt her!" Elliot said, taking a angry step toward him. "I know that" Dean's eyes flashed. "You forgive him, Liv?" Elliot said yelling "How could you? After what he has done?" Olivia closed her eyes a moment "I have my reasons, El. Please calm down." "Elliot! My office, now" Cragen said stepping out of his office. Elliot glared at Dean, and left without even glancing at Olivia. "So…you still want to go?" Dean asked, leaving the choice up to her. "Yes I do, Dean." Olivia said leading the way out of the precinct.
So, how do you like it? :) I wanted Dean to come back, even though he was a asshole. Didn't you just love Elliot's reaction? ;) Haha review!
