Please review! You guys are awesome!

Elliot sighed as he got out of his car. It had been a rough day. The case they had took a wrong turn and they ended up spending thirty-two straight hours working on it. That night, he could tell that Olivia wasn't going home no matter how tired she was. He knew her favorite place to go when she needed to get rid of the stress. She took the case extremely hard this time. Elliot offered to drive her home, but she declined saying that she just wanted to be alone.

Alone my ass! He thought as he stared at the club she was going into. She was wearing her favorite pair of black short shorts and a black, semi long-sleeved shirt. Her hair was bouncing slightly with each step that she took. She stepped up to the curb in her ankle boots and walked into the club when the bouncer motioned for her to come up to the front.

Elliot walked across the street, showed his badge to the bouncer and walked in looking for Olivia. He saw her immediatly. She was on the dance floor already, getting every set of eyes on her. Elliot smiled as she swatted down really fast and slowly came back up.

I know your insides are feeling so hollow
And it's a hard pill for you to swallow

He watched as she danced, but she was clearly keeping her eyes wide open for anything. No matter where she went, she always carried the job with her. Much like he did. They both didn't have somebody to share their lives with. Sure, he had Kathy, but she couldn't handle what he dealt with everyday. That's what mainly led to their divorce two months ago.

Elliot wanted to ask Olivia out, but then she started dating some guy. He never did meet him. He had been trying to lay low for a while. Just be friends until he was sure she felt secure and safe.

Today changed that. A guy had Olivia at gun point in a factory. Everybody left, but let their machines and stations run. Elliot had a gun pointed at the guy while he held Olivia by him and the ledge. If he let go, she would fall into the shredder.

Somehow, the guy ended up pushing Olivia over the edge. Elliot shot the guy in the chest quickly and ran over. Olivia was hanging onto the railing, strungling to get up. Elliot threw his arm down and eventually pulled her up. Once she was up, he held her as she shook and tried to regulate her breathing. She huddled into his chest and kept her arms around his torso to assure herself she was in one place and wasn't going anywhere.

But if I fall for you, I'll never recover
If I fall for you, I'll never be the same

Elliot was terrified. He was about to try to explain his feelings in some type of manner. How, he didn't know yet. He just knew that he needed to do it tonight so that she would know. If she never knew, he could never get over it. He'd always wonder what if. It was now or never. He walked slowly through the crowd to where she was dancing. She was turned away from him. He couldn't help the but feel his nervousness build in the pit of his stomach.

I really wanna love somebody
I really wanna dance the night away

Elliot reached out and placed a hand on her hip. She immediatly grabbed the hand, pushed it away, and continued to dance. She didn't turn around or step away. This was her way. Every time he saw her go out like this, she would invite men in and push them away until they introduced themselves properly.

He stepped in front of her. "Liv."

She looked up at him while still dancing. "Hey El, what are you doing here?" She paused and thought a moment. "Are you following me?"

Elliot smirked slightly. "I came here to make sure you didn't do anything you were going to regret." He held out his hand. "So... care to dance?"

I know we're only half way there
But you take me all the way, you take me all the way

Olivia quirked an eyebrow at him. She took his hand. "Can you keep up?" Lucky Strike by Maroon 5 was playing in the backround.

Elliot pulled her to him so her back was flush against his chest. "The question is this." He leaned over to her ear. "Can you keep up?" The lights started flashing as he watched Olivia's eyes spark to life.

Olivia smirked and put his hands with her on her stomach. "You have no idea Stabler." She started dancing against him to the beat of the music. Elliot was staying right on track with every beat.

I really want to touch somebody
I think about you every single day
I know we're only half way there
But you take me all the way, you take me all the way

Olivia wrapped her arms around Elliot's neck. He stuck his face into her neck as he kept his hands on her hips. "Liv, I need to tell you something."

Olivia slowly turned into his arms. Her forehead was against his as she danced with his hands linked behind her back. She looked up at him. "If it's about today, I came here to forget about it. I don't want to talk about that."

Elliot pulled her closer to him. "Just listen to me." They were still dancing, now grinding against one another. "Today, it just made me realize how close I came to losing you. That's why I want to tell you this now."

You're such a hard act for me to follow
Love me today, don't leave me tomorrow

Olivia looked up at him with those big brown eyes. She grazed her fingers along the back the head. "What is it?"

Elliot took in a breath and looked into her eyes for a moment. "I... I'm in love with you. Olivia, I loved you from the moment I saw you. Today, made me realize just how important it was to tell you that. I had to. I love you."

But if I fall for you, I'll never recover
If I fall for you, I'll never be the same

Olivia stopped dancing. She froze everything. Elliot felt the muscles in her back slowly relax. She looked into his eyes and smiled. Before he knew it, she kissed him.

I really wanna love somebody
I really wanna dance the night away
I know we're only half way there
But you take me all the way, you take me all the way

It seemed like everything was going in slow motion. Olivia put a hand on his cheek as she deepened the kiss. Elliot tangled his hand in her hair while the other held her to him.

I really wanna touch somebody
I think about you every single day
I know we're only halfway there
But you take me all the way, you take me all the way

They soon pulled apart for need of oxygen. Elliot dropped his forehead to hers and smiled. His eyes were closed. Olivia grinned and put a hand on his chin. "Hey." He opened his eyes. "I love you too. You have no idea how long I've wanted you to say that."

Please review! You guys have no idea how much I love this song! I smile when ever I hear it. It's by Maroon 5.
