soz for a rough start it will iimprove and I just wanna say thanks to all the dedicated fans on FB who helped me out thx guys you're awesome!
I was awakened by a loud knock on my door. "Olivia!" a voice called and I cautiously made my way to the door. I looked through the peephole and saw Elliot. "Elliot what the hell are you- wait Elliot?" I asked and he nodded, I could tell something was wrong especially because he addressed me by my full name instead of Liv. I invited him in and he sat on the couch but I was still looking for an answer.
"I-it's Kathy" he said shakily and I nodded waiting for him to continue. "She's dead" he said putting his head in his hands.
"What!? I asked and he started to explain his situation to me. The whole time he spoke all I could think was, Elliot just shows up at my door and was like hey liv forget about your life for a sec Kathy's dead so I decided to finally talk to you after three years, I don't think so.
"Elliot I really can't do this right now" I sighed and he just gave me a look I have never seen him look at me like that before. "Oh I'm sorry do you have someone over?" he asked and I looked at him, my anger starting to get the better of me.
"What do you think I am a prostitute?!" I yelled and he shook his head quickly.
"Jesus no" he said and I gave him an annoyed glare.
"Can you just go please" I said trying to hold back tears but Elliot knew me well even if it had been years he knew when I needed him.
"So you're with Cassidy now?" he asked and I realised I still had a picture of us on my coffee table.
"No" I said firmly letting him know that he needed to drop the subject.
"Listen I'm sorry I didn't call you I just thought you wouldn't wanna hear it I thought you'd think I was pathetic but you know what Kathy's dead my kids hate me I have no job so what have I got to lose and then I finally have the balls to face you and you push me away!" he yelled , his words hit me hard, much harder than I explained.
"I..I I didn't.." I couldn't get the words out.
"You know what coming here was a mistake" he said and it echoed through my head, I've always hated that word, mistake it reminded me of my mother because that was her name for me. Most mothers say darling or sweetheart but no mine was mistake or slut but to be honest I preferred it when she called me slut because I know I wasn't but sometimes I question whether or not I am a mistake. So as Elliot headed for the door I stopped him, I'd made too many mistakes to let him go.
"I hate that word" I said coldly and he just gave me a blank stare. I let him stay on the couch because I did feel bad for him I really did.
The next day I woke up to a text from Amanda, saying that William Lewis had escaped and I literally jumped out of bed I completely forgot that Elliot was staying on the couch. When I saw him standing in the kitchen I let out a scream. "Liv you OK?" he asked snapping me out of my nightmare.
"I have to go" I said in a panic getting on my coat and rushing out the door.
"Wait where're you going?" he called after me but I kept going. He came out after me and got into my car I knew he wasn't gonna leave me alone so I had to explain to him as I drove.
"Wait so this William Lewis guy what's so special about him? Rapists escape all the time what's so different?" he asked and my hands tightened around the steering wheel at the mention of Lewis' name.
"He's a sick perverted little-" I began but Elliot interrupted me.
"Wow Liv take it easy" he said as we pulled up outside the precinct. As we entered the squad room I was surrounded by cops in bulletproof vests.
"Hey what's going on?" Elliot asked but was ignored in the commotion.
"I'm gonna need to borrow your office for awhile" Murphy said and I was in no mood for this.
"Excuse me?" I asked annoyed "this is my squad room you can't just take over!" I yelled but it wasn't up to me to decide.
So now I was in protection as if that'll help me those two can't even take care of a plant! I was lucky enough to have Elliot there with me, it just seemed unrealistic that after all these years he decides to contact me the night Lewis escapes from prison? We went to a bar just around the corner from the precinct I sat there restlessly while the two cops flirted with one another and Elliot kept asking me if I was OK which of course I'm not. At that point I was fed up and I had to get to Amelia who Lewis had held captive. He texted me and I used the oldest trick in the book, I went to the bathroom and made my escape. When I got outside I pulled a guy out of his car and made my way to meet Lewis. I stepped out of the car and Lewis approached me with a gun. "Put your hands up Olivia " he said and I hated the way he said my name like I was one of his sex toys or something. It was all happening so fast I felt sick he searched me taking off my vest and throwing it and then my gun and suddenly my phone rang and Elliot's name popped up. "Found yourself a new boyfriend?" he asked throwing my phone now too. He took me to an abandoned wearhouse or a factory I'm not sure. It was like he had the upper hand he had all the control, with every cold touch I felt like my body wasn't mine anymore. I wasn't even sure if Amelia was still alive and the whole time all I thought about was Elliot. I'd never see him again I'd never hear his voice never look into his eyes never again.
