Disclaimer: still no

Elliot and Olivia turned to see a sight that neither thought they would ever see. Behind the bushes, Casey and John were attempting to conceal their 'activities'. John was on top of Casey and both were completely naked. Olivia and Elliot stared at each other, not knowing what to do or say. Olivia was the first to lose her composure, she began laughing loudly and turned away towards Elliot.

"Oh my God, are you guys serious?" Olivia exclaimed as she fell into the arms of Elliot.

John and Casey looked up and frantically tried to cover themselves. "Olivia! Elliot! What are you guys doing here?" Casey exclaimed as she tried to cover herself with small scraps of clothing.

"I think we should be asking you that." Elliot said with a smirk on his face. Both Elliot and Olivia were disgusted by the fact they were seeing their friends 'consummating their relationship' but it was all too funny.

"Oh very funny, you guys. Can you leave now? We'd like to get dressed." John said, clearly irritated by his friends immaturity.

"You know what? We'll leave and you guys can go back to doing ... that." Olivia said as she pulled Elliot by the arm away from the couple.

Once they got a good distance away, Elliot and Olivia couldn't stop laughing. They sat down on a park bench, both doubled over with laughter. "I never thought I'd see Munch and Casey together as a couple, let alone doing that!" Olivia said as her laughter began to die down.

"They're an odd couple. I wonder if they'll work." Elliot said, the smirk still lingering on his face. They both looked at each other and knew they were thinking the same thing: would they work. The thoughts of things not working out with Elliot hurt Olivia and she turned away from him so that he couldn't see the tears glistening in her eyes. Elliot felt the mood change from happy to sad and instinctively wrapped his arms around Olivia as they sat on the bench. "Liv, talk to me. I know you're thinking the same thing I am."

Olivia turned around to face him. She searched his face for a hint of the humor that engulfed it moments before, but found none. "What about our job, Elliot? My job is my life. What if we lose our jobs because of this and then we don't end up working out ? Then what do I have? Nothing. Elliot, I want to be with you more than anything but I don't want to lose my job."

Olivia knew that she was thinking too much and too far ahead for them but she couldn't help it. She liked having the sense of security that came with having a steady job, even if ironically that job was being a cop. Elliot looked at her closely, the smirk beginning to reappear on his face. "Liv, I think you're thinking too much. What I want to know is what makes you think we aren't going to work out? And who says we have to tell anyone about us? We can just keep it to ourselves for a while until we know whether it'll work or not."

"Elliot, I didn't mean that I don't think we will work. I just don't want to lose everything. And I guess you're right, we don't have to tell people. Even though I want to." she said as she snuggled closer to Elliot when the wind blew. "Maybe we should get out of here though, I mean unless we want to see John and Casey emerge from the bushes."

Elliot laughed and looked over. He didn't notice that their friends had yet to come out of their area in the bushes. Elliot nodded and took Olivia by the hand as he stood. Elliot and Olivia walked to the car, hand in hand, in silence. Elliot walked Olivia to her side of the car and opened the door for her, before getting into the driver's side. They drove in silence for a few minutes before Olivia spoke. "Hey, El?"

"Hmm"

"How long?" she asked as she turned away from the window to face Elliot.

"How long what?" he asked as he momentarily glanced at her before turning his attention back to the road.

"How long have you loved me?" she asked seriously, never taking her eyes off Elliot's face.

"Well, I always knew there was something different about our relationship but mainly I assumed it was because of our job. Then after you left to go on that undercover job for the feds, I realized that I couldn't get that connection with anyone. I tried to see if I could make that connection with Dani but it was no use. I compared everything she did to what you would've done. When you left, I was pissed because I realized that I loved you but there was nothing I could do about it. No one knew where you were or how to get in touch with you. So I tried to forget. But I couldn't ... can't forget you. " Elliot looked at Olivia as he said the last part. He wanted to make sure that she knew that he meant it and that he wasn't going anywhere. He obviously knew about Olivia's difficulty of trusting men and he didn't want her to get scared and run.

Olivia watched him as he shifted his gaze from her, back to the road. "When did you know, Liv?"

"About the same time I guess. I mean I always had feelings for you that I knew I shouldn't have had because of our job and because you were married. Then after your divorce I could stop myself from thinking more and even dreaming more and it started to get out of hand. Then when I took the job for the feds I thought it would help them to go away, but it didn't. I was completely miserable. All I wanted to do was get the case solved and come home. But of course Dean tried to keep me there for as long as possible. But when I finally came home all I wanted to do was go to your house and just fall into your arms, but I didn't." Olivia remembered getting off of the plane, hoping to run into Elliot on her way home.

Olivia looked out the window and saw that Elliot had turned onto her street. She watched as he sped up and drove right by her apartment building. She looked at him, confused. "Elliot ? Where are we going?"

"You'll see, Liv. Just sit back and enjoy the ride." Elliot replied, flashing her his Stabler smile that he knew she couldn't resist.

Olivia looked at him and smiled. She hated how all he had to do was smile and all of her problems seemed to not matter anymore. She reached over and placed her hand on Elliot's leg. She loved feeling the warmth that came off of him. Elliot took one of his hands off of the steering wheel and placed it over hers, and holding it. Olivia rested her head back on the seat and watched as the world went by her as they drove. It wasn't long before sleep consumed her. When she woke, they where still driving and the sun was just starting to come up. She assumed she had only been asleep for about an hour. She stretched and blinked before looking at Elliot who was attempting to watch her and the road at the same time. She laughed at him and he smiled back at her. "You're finally awake"

Olivia nodded and looked around. "Where are we?"

"We're driving."

Olivia looked at him and hit him playfully. "Well, where are we going?"

"You'll see in about two minutes." he said as he made a right turn onto a small side street. Olivia looked around and noticed that there was a lot of land and no tall buildings, she assumed they weren't in New York anymore. She gasped at the sight she saw when they reached their final destination.
