Okay, I just want to start by thanking everyone who read 'Chinese Food and Beer' and left all those positive reviews. You guys are amazing! This one is for you guys!

Disclaimer: I own nothing. Dick Wolf is a selfish man. But he'll let me borrow them for this story. What a man!

Okay so this story isn't a direct EO. It may develop. But they're friends throughout the story. It's set right after Intoxicated. Olivia's going to face a lot of the demons from her past and maybe fall victim to them. It's most likely not going to be as long as my other, unless you guys fall in love with it.

Carrie Eldridge was led out of the courtroom after kissing her boyfriend. Olivia's memories of being sixteen and thinking she was so in love flooded back to her mind. She didn't want to face them, she needed out, she needed a drink. Olivia got up and excited the court room. A half-hour later, she found herself in a bar being hit on by a man. She hadn't had enough to drink to go home with him, but the possibility was still in the air.

"So your a cop... that's kind of hot." The man scooted in to whisper in her ear. "Maybe we could play with your handcuffs later. Olivia's face shifted in disgust.

"Actually, I think I'm going to go home. I have to be up early. Thanks for the drink." Olivia turned to walk away when the man grabbed her wrist. "I didn't just buy you a drink because I wanted a conversation."

Olivia tried to pull her wrist away. "Screw you." The man didn't loosen his grip and had pure anger in his eyes. Suddenly a figure pushed the man off. "Back off buddy." Olivia recognized the voice to be Elliot's and sighed. Great, Elliot to the rescue again. The same incident happened once before and Elliot had saved her from the man.

"I was just talking to her man, I don't want no trouble." The man backed away from Elliot while Olivia stayed back.

"She doesn't wanna talk." Elliot starred coldly at the man, who turned and went back to the bar. Elliot looked back to Olivia "Are you okay?"

Olivia felt some sort of rage boil up inside of her. "I don't need you to look out for me. I'm fine." Olivia stormed out of the bar and Elliot followed her outside.

"You clearly do, that guy could have hurt you." Elliot shouted after Olivia, who stopped and turned towards him.

"I can take care of myself. As much as I enjoy you playing hero, It's time to call it a night. Goodnight." Olivia turned and ran to her car. The engine started and Olivia peeled down the street, leaving Elliot in the dust.

The next day, Olivia decided to call in sick to work, she wasn't in the mood to see Elliot. Instead she sat in her apartment with a bottle of Grey Goose, taking shots every so often. She was alone with her memories.

She began to think about her first love. The five year age gap ultimately tore them apart along with her mother but she knew it wasn't going to last. She wanted him to be her way out. She had been so naive to think it was going to work. But after so many years, she wondered what had happened to him. She walked over to the closet and pulled out the phone book and looked up his name... Jonathan Mears. She found two and chose to dial one.

"Hello?" A man's voice answered.

"Um...Hello. Is this Jonathan from Columbia university?" Olivia asked, her nerves showed through her voice.

"Yeah, and may I ask who is calling?" He sounded uncomfortable.

"It's.. well, um... Olivia Benson." Olivia said. Her stomach began to do back flips as she waited for the voice on the phone to answer.

"Oh man talk about blast from the past! How have you been?" Jonathan sounded excited to hear from her and Olivia let her breath out.

"I'm good. Still alone. I'm a detective now." Olivia was trying to make small talk with him but the alcohol had slowed down her thought process.

"Not to be direct but would you be interested in dinner sometime?"

Olivia heart began to race, the same way it did when she was sixteen. "Yeah, when are you free?"

"Well tonight is good for me. How about you?"

"It's fantastic." Olivia's face morphed into a smile.

"Great. I'll meet you at Magiano's at 8. I have to go though. See you then." Jonathan paused and waited for Olivia's answer.

"Okay, I'll see you tonight." Olivia hung up the phone and let out all the breath she had been holding in. She capped the bottle of Grey Goose and ran towards her room. She had no clue what she was going to wear. She went through her closet and picked various items out. One thing caught her eye. A fitted blouse which was low cut but not enough where it suggested anything and a skirt that came just above her knees.

Olivia headed off to shower and things. She had a couple of drinks throughout the day but by 5, she had stopped drinking. Olivia began to work on her hair and make-up. She redid it four times by 7 she had finally fallen in love with her look.

At 7:30 she took a camp to Magianos. The ride took longer because traffic happened. Olivia walked into the restaurant a little after 8 and immediately saw Jonathan. He was even more attractive than she had remembered. He was a bit more aged but looked gorgeous. Olivia walked up to the table and Jonathan stood up to greet her.

Jonathan kissed her on the cheek and pulled out her chair for her. "You look amazing."

"So do you." Olivia smiled as she took a sip of the wine in front of her.

"I assumed you would like wine." They both smiled as they remembered Olivia's first experience with wine. It ended with her hanging over his toilet crying how she hated him for this.

"Ha Ha go ahead and laugh. I didn't drink again till college." Olivia smiled smugly at Jonathan. God! He looks so good.

"I'm sure you didn't light-weight. So are you seeing anyone?" Jonathan smiled hopefully as he looked into Olivia's brown eyes.

"Nope, I'm single as a dollar bill. How about you?" Olivia warm brown eyes starred into Jonathan's bright green eyes which complimented his dark brown hair so well.

"Nope. I'm single. I defiantly had an ulterior motive to asking you to dinner with me." A seductive smile formed across Jonathan's face. Normally, Olivia would have been repulsed but tonight, she was intrigued.

"Oh really? You know, I'm actually not that hungry..." The memories of Jonathan's skin on her skin flooded back to Olivia and she would hardly contain herself.

"Me neither." Jonathan's features looked even more attractive to Olivia.

"Let's head back to my place." Olivia couldn't wait to get Jonathan back behind closed doors. She couldn't wait to be with him again.

Okay okay! Don't bite my head off! I know it's not EO but it's going to be more evident within the next couple of chapters. So review if I should continue and check out my other stories if you want some more :D
