Chapter 2, The Dating Game!

Chapter 2

After spending the day with Elliot and his kids, Olivia had almost forgotten the preposed happy hour. Almost, that was until Gillian called again to firm up the time and location. Olivia and Elliot arrived together at the bar. Gillian had just arrived about five minutes before them with her friend Ronnie and Trevor Langan in tow.

Gillian waved at them smiling and then frowning slightly. Then, her smile grew when she saw Fin and Munch behind them. She grinned and walked toward them completely forgetting her company. Trevor not to be deterred though quickly followed her with Ronnie trailing behind.

"Hi guys!" Gillian said brightly.

There were a chorus of hey's that followed. Olivia's eyes focused on the blonde standing just behind Trevor. She was about 5 foot 6, blonde shoulder length hair that was way too thick to be fair to the rest of the female population, she had blue eyes, and a fairly decent figure in Olivia's quick assessment.

Gillian grabbed her friend's hand and pulled her forward. "This is my friend from college, Ronnie." Munch extended his greeting first smirking at the pretty pout sitting on Olivia's face. "Hi Ronnie, I'm John. Are you a lawyer too?"

Ronnie shook her head smiling. "No, a teacher actually, first grade."

Great, she was a grade school teacher wasn't that like one of the top three male fantasy occupations for females behind the nurse and the librarian, Olivia thought.

Elliot smiled. "Hi Ronnie, I'm Elliot."

Ronnie smiled at him. Fin introduced himself next leaving Olivia last.

Olivia plastered a fake smile on her face and extended her hand. "Hi, Ronnie, I'm Olivia."

Munch had to give her credit for the effort. He knew she was jealousy. He could read it in her face and the stiffness of her body language. As they approached a table, what happened next reminded Munch of that childhood game where everybody rushed for a chair. Fin sat first and Gillian quickly sat next to him. Olivia sat on the opposite side of the table and Elliot stepped in front of Munch almost mowing down to take the seat beside her. Trevor quickly dropped into the seat next to Gillian and Ronnie sat on the other side of Elliot leaving Munch to sit at the head of the table.

The conversation flowed around the table however not smoothly. To the right was Gillian, Fin, and Trevor's conversation.

Gillian searched for a topic that might interest Fin. "Do you like music, Fin?" she asked.

Fin studied Gillian and wondered if she had been drinking prior to their arrival there, what with the combination of inane questions and the growing pinkness on her cheeks it was a fair estimate.

"I like music. Mostly classical but some rock. I don't really care for country to be honest that my woman left me and all I have is my dog, it is just way too ridiculous." Trevor rattled off ignoring that the question had been addressed to Fin not him.

Fin seriously felt like he needed to be drunk at this point fearing the next question out of Gillian's mouth might be what his favorite color was and he would have to listen to a diatribe from Langan crayons.

To the left, conversation was not that much better. Olivia was silent watching Ronnie ask Elliot question after question. He actually had to turn his away from her to talk to Ronnie. Olivia swallowed her beer quickly and waved to the waiter for another. She was thinking she needed a shot, too. Hearing Ronnie's laughter, Olivia groaned inwardly she was definitely getting a shot.

Elliot tried to listen to Ronnie's questions and answered them rather politely but he wanted to talk to Olivia who for some reason was uncharacteristically silent and getting uncharacteristically drunk. Elliot frowned turning toward her. "Olivia, how many is that?"

Olivia smiled at him and thought not enough to forget how hot you look. "Um, three." She smiled innocently.

"Um, six and a couple of shots." Munch clarified for Elliot.

How had he missed that he thought. Elliot grabbed her drink . "How about we share okay?"

Olivia giggled and smiled. "Sure, I will always share with you, El?" She gently patted his upper thigh and gave him a little squeeze and grin.

Munch laughed watching the expression on Elliot's face and watching him now shifting in his seat.

"Thanks." Elliot said wishing her hand would stay right there.

Fin had heard Olivia giggle something that he was not used to. He laughed at the way she was smiling at Elliot all dreamy eyed. She was definitely getting plastered. Fin's phone vibrated and he looked down at the new text.

Finn's text:

"I miss you. Where are you, baby? I need you. I am waiting for you. Naked." Fin's grin widened and he texted back . "15 minutes, C."

Fin smiled and pulled out his wallet. "Sorry, to break up the party guys but I have to get going."

Disappoint registered on Gillian's face. "Really, are you sure?"

"Yeah, sorry about that but I got to get home. Ken is staying with me and he just texted me that he is locked out."

"Could you give me a ride?" Gillian spoke up. "I really need to work on some briefs for tomorrow. I should go too."

Fin hesitated and Trevor saved him.

"I live right by you. I will take you home, no problem." Trevor said smiling.

"Okay, well I guess that settles that!" Fin grinned and grabbed his keys. "You making sure she is getting home, Elliot?" Fin said nodding in Olivia's direction as she finished Elliot's beer.

"Of course." Elliot nodded. "I got her."

Ronnie eyeing them piped up. "Actually, I am ready too. Could you give me a ride, Trevor?"

"Sure, why not?" Trevor smiled thinking he would drop Ronnie off first.

Munch watched the trio follow Fin out the door.

Olivia grinned at Munch and Elliot, her smile genuine and happy now that Ronnie had left.

Munch smirked and winked at Elliot. "I think we should get our little friend home, now. Don't you think?"

"You ready, Liv?" Elliot asked.

"You guys are such party poopers! It's too early, we should stay and dance!" Olivia said a gleam in her eye.

"Party poopers?" Munch grinned. "Wow, our girl is really drunk."

Elliot laughed and smiled. "How about we save dancing for another night, Liv." Elliot was greeted with a small pout. He grinned and pulled her up. A slow song had started on the jukebox. "Okay, one dance, Benson." Elliot said trying to sound even a little put out at the prospect.

Olivia smiled and lurched forward toward Elliot stumbling just a little from the alcohol. Olivia followed Elliot onto the makeshift dance floor glad that he was holding her steady by the elbow. Elliot slipped his hands gently downward resting them on Olivia's hips She wrapped her hands around his neck and dropped her head softly on his chest a content sigh escaping her lips.

Elliot pulled Olivia a little closer sliding his hands around her waist to her back running one lightly up and down. Olivia in response snuggled herself tightly against him. Elliot groaned inwardly feeling her pressed so close that he could feel the weight of her firm breasts against his chest. His hand that was resting low on her back pulled her closer pressing her lower half tighter against him. He groaned out loud this time when she pressed herself even closer to him. Elliot's hand dropped of his own volition lower sliding down over her butt.

Munch grinned and grabbed his coat. He laughed watching the the expression of pure bliss on Stabler's face which matched the dreamy eyed one on Benson. Maybe somebody was getting lucky tonight.

I struggled a bit with this chapter so I hope you like.
