Author's Note: Hey guys! I'm so sorry that I haven't updated in awhile. I have been super busy but I love reading all of your reviews. You guys are so sweet! This will be the end of this two-shot, let me know what you think!
"What's been up with you lately? You usually are so talkative when it comes to Kathy. Don't think that I haven't noticed your quietness." He asked her.
"I'm fine, El. It's nothing," she said, hopefully sounding convincing enough.
"Don't even try to lie to me, Olivia," she hated when he used her whole name. It meant he was either being really serious or he was really mad at her, or both. "I know when you're lying. You shift in your seat and your left eye starts to twitch, but you know that so you try to look away. It's not going to work this time, just tell me what's bothering you. You can tell me anything."
"I have to use the bathroom, I'll be right back," she knew that she wouldn't be able to stay there for much longer without him finding out. What she had been hiding
With that, she walked down the hall to the one-person bathroom, and locked the door behind her. She needed time to get herself together. After letting out a deep breath and a look at herself in the mirror, there was a knock on the door. She should've known he would follow her.
"Liv, open the door," he said quietly but demanding.
"I'm using the bathroom," she lied.
"I know that your not. Don't make me break down this door," he threatened.
She opened the door for him, trying to avoid any scene that he may have caused, and he walked inside.
"What's up with you? What is your problem?" he almost shouted.
Olivia, finally realized that she wouldn't be able to hold it in forever, figured that there is no time like the present, even if it could mean ruining the only healthy relationship tat she has ever had with a man.
"You know what Elliot? You're my problem!" she declared. "The way that you look at me with your big blue eyes, and the way my stomach jumps into my throat when our hands touch by mistake. And then you come into work wearing that damned tie that makes your eyes look like Heaven and you expect me not to melt? And the way that you talk about your wife makes me want to go to her house and choke her to death because she doesn't deserve anyone as good as you, if there even is anyone else that is!" she was yelling now, while Elliot watched her with an uncontrollable smirk on his face.
Unexpectedly, he pinned her up against the bathroom wall next to the sink, and put his hands on either side of her neck.
He looked into her eyes and asked, "What are you trying to say, Liv."
"Fine! You win! I love you! I'm in love with you! Are you happy now?" she said sounding really frustrated but with a hint of relief in her voice. She was glad that she finally got that off her chest, but there was no taking it back now.
"Very," he said as he crashed his face into hers. It was the most passionate, loving kiss they had both ever experienced. After about a minute of making out with each other like teenagers, he pulled away and spoke first.
"I love you too, so much. I'm just glad that I got you to say it," he a=said with a snicker.
"What do you mean…" she realized what he had been doing, "…You arrogant son-of-a-bitch, you were trying to get me to say it first!" She was trying to be angry with him, but she couldn't help feeling like he had done them both a huge favor. He had just told her he loved her. She was in utter shock and happiness.
"It worked, didn't it?" he said as he leaned forward to kiss her again, but she stopped him with her hand.
"What about Kathy, El? What about work? They're gonna split us up if they find out about this, us!"
"We'll figure it all out, but right now, can we just enjoy each other?" he moved forward and kissed her.
~2 years later~
Olivia and Elliot walked into the precinct together, hand-in-hand. Olivia had a 4-month-baby-bump and was glowing! Even though they were still partners, Olivia was assigned desk duty because of her pregnancy.
They had just gotten married 6 months ago; 1 year after Elliot's divorce was finalized. He had full custody of his kids because Kathy moved to California to be with her new boyfriends and start a new life without her family.
After a long day of desk duty for Olivia, her and Elliot went home. She thought it would be a good idea to get rid of some of their old stuff so they could make room for the baby-on-the-way.
Olivia was looking through the closet that her and Elliot shared, and found in the corner a box labeled "Olivia". She pulled out the box and opened it up, curious as to what was inside.
She saw her wedding dress, an old necklace that she used to wear all the time, and the blue tie that made her weak in the was the tie that he was wearing the day that she told him she loved him for the first time.
She remembered that day like it was yesterday, and she would never forget it either. She thought about where she would've been in her life if he hadn't worn it that day, but then she remembered that it did happen. Her life was perfect and filled with happiness, all because of a blue tie.
