~~~~~~~~*~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*
The shot rang out and Olivia was slammed to the ground.
Elliot's mind went into complete panic mode, he'd heard that sound explode from her mouth before she fell. "LIV! LIV! Are you hit?" he questioned frantic. Don't die Don't die chanted wildly in his mind. He took her tenderly into her arms
"No…no, the blood is his." She replied and his breath expelled in a rush of relief.
He cradled her head to his chest protectively. She was okay. He brushed back her shirt just to be sure and was relieved to find no gaping wound. He cradled her once again to his chest and rested his cheek on her head rocking her back and forth.
She quivered in his arms. He could feel the raging emotions poor from her. His usually calm and collected Liv was terrified. He soothed her as best as possible, trying to calm his own frazzled nerves feeling sick to his stomach. He could have lost her.
Such a display of emotion was abnormal for them but it was quickly eclipsed by a search for who had delivered the killing shot.
Porter.
Elliot's insides raged and he tightened his hold on Olivia. That stupid son of a bitch could have gotten her killed. They'd almost had Manuel talked down, Porter hadn't needed to take the risk of hitting Olivia.
Elliot helped Olivia off of the ground grasping her shoulders and leaned towards her ear.
"You okay Liv" he whispered his forehead so close to resting on her temple.
"I'm fine El."
They pulled away from one another as Porter approached.
He knew she wasn't fine, it was apparent in the way she stood with her arms crossed it screamed to him that she wasn't ok. Maybe to the outside world she was composed and pulled together but he knew different.
_
She had let Elliot cling to her as she sat on the ground. With his arms about her she felt grounded, now with him only a few feet away she felt the loss of his strong arms. But she had pulled it together, she'd had to, there wasn't any other option. She had to be tough.
Elliot volunteered to be the first to give a statement and she was grateful. She wasn't sure she could keep it together if she had to relive the event so soon…

"You need a lift home?" Porter asked Olivia.
Elliot answered Porter's inquiry promptly, "No I'm good thanks" Slime ball hung at the end of that sentence. Oh Elliot knew it was wrong. Olivia didn't belong to him and he shouldn't ruin her chance for a potentially fulfilling relationship but this guy…there was just something off about him. Hinky, Olivia would say.
Porter walked away and Elliot smirked, the loser didn't even have the balls to stand up and really ask her he just took the verbal jab and left.
_
She probably wouldn't have taken Porter up on his offer for a ride but still it could have been a little nicer to turn him down on her own. Elliot was looking out for her and she appreciated that. But did he have to be such an ass about it? She could see him smirking at her from the corner of her eye. She gave Elliot a sideways look that told him exactly where to shove it.
She turned to Porter. Elliot was being combative, Olivia knew that, but she sided with her partner anyways giving Porter an apologetic smile. She rolled her eyes and a silent "ack" escaped her mouth as Porter backed off and walked away. A slight smirk played at Olivia's mouth masked by her irritation but still betraying her emotions, she was amused by Elliot's actions.
She knew perfectly well that hidden beneath that playful and threatening jab was insecurity. The way he played with his neck was a sure sign that he was uncomfortable with Olivia being alone with Porter, it also meant that Porter would be in a very hazardous and dangerous position with Elliot not that he wasn't already. Porter may have saved her life but he had also seriously endangered it and Elliot wasn't apt to forgive that anytime soon.
A look of understanding crossed her face when Elliot turned to follow Cragen's orders after he'd beamed that arrogant smile her way…he didn't want to be separated so soon after today. She'd known there was some other reason she hadn't followed Porter. Elliot couldn't deal with being separated from her…and neither could she. The only reason she'd been able to keep it together was because she knew he was there right beside her….
~~~~~~~( )~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~( )~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~( )~~~~~~~
Rat Bastard! She snarled in her head, her face blank to the outside world.
She'd stopped the tears from flowing not giving the fucking rat bastard the satisfaction. She shouldn't have been surprised. That stupid gut feeling that had niggled and itched at the back of her mind. How she kept getting the feeling that that pieces didn't fit, that it was all too easy and convenient. Porter always seemed to have a answer and would rush to explain. The slight bit of bile that rose in her throat when she kissed him…the fucking sleeze ball.
She had just wanted to be able to trust someone besides Elliot for a change. What the fuck was wrong with her? Why couldn't she ever find a guy that wasn't a criminal?
"Our feelings don't matter?" Porter had said.
That was a lie. They do matter. They mattered to her and they mattered to Elliot. Porter didn't have a good reason for not trusting her and she didn't have a good reason for trusting him.
She walked out of the interrogation room lost in her thoughts, her face set in stone.
"Did you really like him that much, Liv?" whispered Elliot in her ear making her jump.
"No" she said frustrated.
"Then what's the problem?"he asked calmly.
"Just once I'd like for a guy who's interested in me not to be a murderer or a psycho." she bite off.
"I'm a murderer" he said coolly.
"Doesn't count, El. You don't do it out of cold blood. We do it because we have to."
"Porter thought he had to."
"Not the same, he had a choice. Thought is the operative word. We kill because it's kill or be killed, we don't have any other option. Those two both had a choice,"she said fiercely "It also doesn't count because you're not interested in me" Olivia smiled wanly.
"Who says?" Elliot asked seriously
::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
OMGosh! Did he really just say that?!?!?!??!

Elliot *wipes face*: "NO!"
Heaven: "OMG yes it is…and it's the same color as Liv's!!!! Now Im not a detective but im pretty sure the evidence is telling us one thing…Elliots a cross dresser!!!!!"
Olivia *rolls on the floor in laughter*
Elliot *outraged*: "What?!?! NO! I was making out with Liv ok?"
Heaven *gleeful*: "Ah HA! I knew it!"
Olivia smacks Elliot upside the head
Elliot *flabbergasted*: "Wait so that was a trick"
Heaven *crows in delight*
Olivia *sultry look at Elliot*: "You are my stupid stupid hot man."
Heaven *backs away as EO begin to make out*: "thaaats kinda gross, Im gonna go now"
