A/N: I was surfing on Amazon today under Exercise and Fitness. Under that category, after many a page click, they had double locking, nickel plated handcuffs. That is where this teeny tiny plot bunny came from. A/O, as always.

Fitness

By Melissa

Elliot sat at his desk, dumbfounded. He had to find something for the twins' upcoming birthday. He decided to check out Amazon. They had a lot of things to choose from.

While surfing through fitness equipment for Dickie, one of the items that appeared was a set of handcuffs.

He couldn't believe it.

Olivia came waltzing into the bullpen to find her partner staring at his computer screen, not blinking.

"What's the matter, El?"

"Since when do handcuffs fall under 'exercise and fitness??'

"Huh?" The brunette was genuinely confused.

"I'm looking for exercise items and handcuffs fall under that category?!?"

Olivia tried to hide a smirk behind her hand. Elliot looked like he was about to have an aneurysm. "Well, if you count chasing down a suspect and then cuffing them, that is exercise. Or if you are trying to escape from them."

The male detective shot her a look. "I highly doubt they had us in mind."

Olivia sat down at her desk, still trying not to laugh.

The clicking of expensive, high end shoes heralded the approach of their temporary ADA. She took up her customary position on Liv's desk, while Elliot was still ranting.

She placed her hand flat on the desk and leaned in close to her favorite detective. "What's got Elliot's trousers in a knot?"

"He's just upset that apparently handcuffs fall under exercise and fitness when shopping on the internet."

Alex's face was unreadable, but there was one hell of a twinkle in her eye.

"I'd have to agree," she whispered.

She removed her hand from the desk and stood up. Where her palm had been moments before, was a set of police issue handcuffs.

Olivia's eyes went wide and she quickly grabbed them and shoved them in her desk door.

As she watched the seductive sway of the Counselor's hips as she walked away, she blew out a very long breath to try and calm her heart beat.

She had been wondering where she left those things.

The End.

A/N: Thoughts? /grins/ I may turn this into a series of drabbles.
