Hiya, everyone! Okay, here's what's going on here. I got this idea from a writer in the CI fandom, gorengal. Basically, it's a series of drabbles that are 100 words or less, based on a word. The word for this one was Clip, and for the next chapters, I need someone to give me a word as a challenge. This is also my 175th story! Yay!

Disclaimer: Not mine!

Word: Clips

Title: Curiosity Killed The El

Rating: K

Length: 100 words

XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXO

Clip.

Elliot looked up from his paperwork at his partner.

Clip, clip.

He arched an eyebrow and tilted his head to the side, resting his chin in his palm as he studied her.

Clip, clip, clip.

"What are you doing, Liv?" he finally asked, unable to withhold his curiosity any longer.

Clip.

She looked up at him, guilt clear in her doe brown eyes as she held the chain of paperclips in her hands.

"What, El?" she said in protest. "Only ten more to go until I get to one hundred!"

He shook his head and smiled. Only his Olivia.
