Day 1: Anonymous: All I want is an adorable fic of Liv waking up in the middle of the night because Alex snores louder than anyone she's known.
Universe: SVU Season 3
.
Olivia groans as her bedroom swims into view. It's 2:47 in the morning and this is the third time in as many hours that Alex's adorable snoring has woken her up.
Don't get her wrong, she loves the fact that Alex's snoring rivals the sound of a freight train - really, she does. But she could use some sleep.
So, she rolls over onto her side, facing away from Alex, and presses a pillow down against her head, hoping to at least muffle the noise.
The next time she wakes up to Alex's snoring, it is almost time for her to crawl out of bed for work anyway. Instead of lying in bed until her alarm goes off, Olivia grabs her pillow and an extra blanket and hikes into the living room, plopping down on the couch. She throws the blanket over herself, closes her eyes, and falls right to sleep.
Alex shakes her awake an hour later with a sense of urgency. "Olivia, you're going to be late if you don't get up right now."
Olivia groan, barely opening her eyes. "Leave me here to sleep."
Alex's chuckles, pulling away Olivia's blanket, and forces her to scoot backwards against the couch as to lie with her. Smiling, she traces along Olivia's jawline with her finger. "You didn't sleep well, did you?"
Olivia's shivers, swallowing hard. "Is it that obvious?"
"You moved to the couch – I'd say it's pretty obvious."
Olivia laughs. "You're snoring is just so loud, Alex."
Alex sighs. "I know," she says. "I'm sorry."
Olivia leans forward, kissing Alex softly. "I'll figure something out."
(When Alex arrives at Olivia's apartment after work that night, there is a box of Breathe Right strips sitting on her bedside table; Olivia has never slept better.)
