(Olivia's point of view)
I've been home for a week now. It has took sometime to adjust. The kids have been a huge help. Everyday at least on of the older kids have been by to help out. I have to admit having a family of my own still feels like a dream.
Elliot has been truly wonderful. I still don't know how I managed to marry my best friend. I'd be lying if I said I never thought of more than friends with Elliot. I have loved Elliot a long time.
I was hoping I would have more memories by now. So far there haven't been anymore flashes or dreams. Dr. Lambstein had tried her best to help. I just wanted to remember more.
I spent the day with El and Jamie. Eli was at school and Angie was at preschool. Elliot had let me do a little more. I was making us lunch when suddenly I had a flash.
Elliot and I were kissing. His hands were all over me. I walked backwards towards the bed. It was my old bedroom. Elliot never stopped. It felt so good.
"Liv, Olivia." Elliot yelled bring me back.
"What?" I asked as I saw the pot boiling.
"Are you okay?" Elliot asked concerned.
"Uh yeah I'm fine." I said feeling myself blush.
"Why don't I grab us some lunch then we can put Jamie down for a nap and talk?" Elliot suggested.
"That sounds great." I said softly.
"Momma, you read." Jamie said bringing me a book.
"Sure sweetheart." I said happily.
Elliot wasn't gone long. Jamie was really hungry. He ate quickly. Elliot agreed to clean up whole I put Jamie down for his nap. I felt nervous as I walked back down the stairs.
"Did you have another flash?" Elliot asked as I sat on the couch next to him.
"Yes I did." I answered trying not to blush.
"What was it about?" Elliot asked though I had a feeling he knew something.
"We were kissing and then." I stuttered.
"What happened next Liv?" Elliot asked.
"I was walking backwards with you into my old room." I answered.
"That was a good night." Elliot said with a huge smile.
"I was wondering if you'd like to go out sometime?" I asked like an awkward teenager.
"Go out as in a date?" Elliot asked teasing.
"Yes." I answered simply.
"Sure sounds great. I'll ask Richard to baby-sit. I believe it's his turn and I know he's off." Elliot said.
"Oh good." I said trying not to giggle.
"Liv just so you know I kissed you on our first date." Elliot warned.
"Maybe I'll kiss you this time." I responded.
"Sounds like a great idea to me." Eliot said.
