Olivia had just arrived home and all she wanted was to sit on her couch with a beer. A man whose wife had just been killed in Iraq got revenge on a couple responsible for his not having children with the woman he loved. Olivia was tired and didn't want to think about it anymore. She walked into the kitchen and opened the refrigerator door only to discover she ran out of beer the night before. Sighing, she grabbed a bottle of water and found her seat on the couch. The moment she sat down she interrupted by the buzzing of someone wanting to come up.

"Ugh…" after walking over to the intercom and pressing the button she answered. "Yeah?"

"Liv, it's me, mind if I come up?"

Pausing, silently debating to herself whether or not she wanted company, she eventually buzzed him in.

"Thanks Liv."

After no more than two minutes there was a familiar knocking on her door. She walked over and opened the oak barrier between her and her partner. She found him standing in the doorway with a six-pack of beer and a bouquet of lilies.

"Hey El."

"You going to leave me out here all night?"

"No come in." Moving aside to let him through.

"These are for you." Handing her the flowers.

"What's the occasion?" She asked, closing the door behind him.

"Do I need an excuse to buy my favorite partner flowers?"

"I'm your only partner, and yes."

"It has been a tough week for you and I just wanted to so my appreciation and keep you company." He answered, flashing that famous Elliot Stabler smile.

Returning the smile she replied, "Well you didn't have to."

"I know. I tell you what." Walking over to her he raised the beers offering one to her and grabbing the flowers, "I will put these in some water while you order us a pizza and pick out a DVD."

Accepting a beer she agreed. "Mushroom and pepperoni?"

"You know it." He called disappearing into the kitchen.

She called in the order and found a movie and met up Elliot in the kitchen. "It will be here in about thirty minutes." She walked over to the counter next to him where he was putting the lilies in the vase. "Lilies are my favorites."

"I know." He responded with a cocky grin.

Olivia thought to herself 'Of course he knew, he knows everything about me, why should I be surprised.'

"Did you grab a movie?"

"Yeah, The Princess Bride."

"Good choice"


Please review, my first E/O story, be gentle.
