11.
His question still echoed in her mind.
"Have you thought about telling the squad about us yet?"
Olivia had relieved Lucy of her duties for the night and had cuddled a bit with Noah, who had still been somewhat awake. After putting him down again, she had taken a shower and had texted Mike that she was turning in. Now, almost two hours later, he was sleeping soundly next to her, his arm wrapped around her waist and she was still awake.
He was willing to leave the unit for her. For them. Take a position at Joint Terrorism so they could disclose. There was no end to what this man was willing to do for her and his love for her was overwhelming. After he had arrived at her apartment, they had talked in bed. Just talked. After Mike had told her how he felt about their situation, he had just asked her to think it over, and had fallen asleep. All was well in Mike Dodds' world, as long as she was with him. She could hardly fathom it but she knew it was making her happier than she had ever been in her life.
He'd asked her about Elliot too. Why Fin would think she might have slept with her old partner. She had explained that she'd had a very close friendship with Elliot and that there had been a time she had hoped for more. But Elliot had a family. And after the way he'd left the unit, and her, she wasn't sure there was a place for him in her life anymore. And now that she was with Mike, she knew that if she ever saw him again, they would never be more than friends, if even that. Too much time apart changes people and she didn't think they could ever go back to what they once had. Mike was glad, and when he looked into his loving green eyes, so was she. She didn't want to go back anymore.
...
When she walked into the squad room a few days later, something seemed to be up. Something good for a change, judging by the cheery atmosphere.
"Somebody win the lottery?" she asked, walking up to her squad.
"Sort of. Carisi passed the bar," Amanda said excitedly.
"Carisi, congratulations," Olivia said. She was impressed. "Does that mean you're leaving too?"
Carisi assured her he wasn't leaving so fast, but Fin had picked up on her words.
"What do you mean, 'too'?" he asked her.
Olivia sighed. This was it. Part one of their plan to disclose.
"Dodds is going to Joint Terrorism. This is his last week."
"Last week? He just got here," Fin said.
"Yeah," Olivia sighed. "He's on his own journey."
They weren't going to tell anyone yet that she was a big part of that journey until he'd officially left the unit. Amanda changed the subject, saying they should celebrate Carisi's achievement. Olivia agreed and suggested taking them all out to lunch. Fin said he couldn't come along today because his son was meeting him for lunch because he had some news.
"Hope he didn't quit his job," Fin added with a smirk.
Just then, Mike came in, greeting everyone with a casual "Hey."
When everybody stared at him, he looked at Olivia.
"You told 'em?" he asked her, and she nodded.
"I did."
"Task Force? Really?" Fin asked him. "SVU, we go after bad guys and lock 'em up. Terrorism, you can get yourself killed."
Mike raised an eyebrow but didn't comment. It had come up between him and Olivia, and she wasn't sure she wanted him exposed to that kind of violence. He walked away from the group, and Olivia looked at the others apologetically before following him. She nudged him and motioned for him to follow her into her office.
"They're taking it well I guess," Mike said while closing the door behind him.
Olivia sat down behind her desk and nodded.
"As well as can be expected. Everyone thought you'd be with us a lot longer."
"Including me," Mike admitted.
"Are you having second thoughts?" Olivia asked him, already bracing herself for disappointment. Being disappointed was the story of her life after all.
But Mike shook his head and answered her with a definite 'no'.
"I'll never have second thoughts about us, Liv. I hope you'll be able to believe that one day."
He wanted to pull her out of her chair and kiss her, but it was neither the place nor the time. Olivia was biting her lip and he thought she looked so adorable. And sexy. He knew what those lips could do and he felt his body twitch at the memory as well as the prospect of more.
"Don't look at me like that, or you'll get me all hot and bothered again Mike," she said softly, and he grinned.
"Well, why don't we send everyone away on errands and we can do something about it," he smirked.
As tempting as it was, she actually had work to do, so they settled for a raincheck.
"I'll be cashing that in as soon as possible though," Mike assured her, leaving her shifting in her chair while she tried to concentrate on the files on her desk.
...
A new case popped up that had to be investigated very carefully because it involved a CO at Rikers. Olivia, Mike and Fin met up with Barba, and they thought of a plausible way to get inside the prison and look around, without anyone knowing they were actually looking into the CO. When they left Barba's office, Mike said he'd start the paperwork right away.
"You want to spend your last week at Rikers?" Fin asked him with a grin.
"I'm not coasting out," Mike replied, glancing at Olivia. "I'll put in my time to the end."
"What, are you trying to make me miss you now that you're already gone?" Olivia smirked and they all smiled when Mike told them,
"I'm just doing my job."
If only Fin knew how much she was going to miss him. But she would be able to come home to him every night once they'd disclosed.
...
It had been a long, tiring day and evening. The squad had spent quite some time going over the surveillance footage from Rikers and everyone had handed in their reports of the interviews they'd done during the day. Olivia was rubbing her temples after finally finishing up the paperwork on the progression of the case. A shuffle at the door made her look up and she smiled when she saw Mike standing there.
"This looks like a deja vu," he said softly.
"It does, doesn't it," she said, remembering their very first time together.
"Hard to believe that was just a couple of weeks ago," Mike remarked, walking further into her office but not closing the door.
"Everyone leave for the night?" Olivia asked, standing up to look out into the squad room.
"Not yet," Mike said. "Amanda and Carisi are still here. Not sure why though."
Olivia smiled.
"I think they don't know how to say goodbye to each other."
"I can relate," Mike said softly, moving closer to her desk.
Olivia bit her lip and nodded. She knew Lucy would have put Noah to bed by now, so she had no reason to hurry home.
"Aren't you tired, Mike?" she asked him, looking up at him through her eyelashes.
"I'm not too tired, if that's what you're asking."
"I really think you need a nap, Sergeant," she insisted, and then understanding seeped into his eyes.
"Hmm. Now that you mention it, I think I could use a rest."
The corners of Olivia's mouth tugged up.
"Off you go then," she said softly and she didn't need to tell him twice.
After Mike had left her office and the squad room, Olivia wandered into the squad room and chatted with Amanda and Carisi for a few minutes, encouraging them to go home so they'd be fresh the next morning to get a few girls out of Rikers.
"Mike already gone for the night too?" Amanda asked, and Olivia looked around, as if looking for her Sergeant.
"Looks like it," Olivia said. "I think we should all follow his example. Just this once though," she added, raising a warning finger and looking at Carisi. "No jumping ship any time soon, okay?"
"You got it, Lieu," Carisi said with a grin. "Goodnight."
"Goodnight you two. See you tomorrow."
Her detectives had only just left for the elevator when Olivia hurried towards the cribs. She went in quickly and closed the door behind her. Mike was lying on his back on one of the bunks, his hands clasped behind his head, and his eyes closed. Olivia shrugged off her jacket and tossed it on the top bunk, on top op Mike's jacket and tie. She sat down next to him on the bunk and put a hand on his chest. He opened his eyes slowly and smiled.
"Hi," he whispered.
"Hi," she whispered back.
No other words were needed and even before their shirts hit the floor, Mike latched on to Olivia's breast, exposing both by pulling her bra down. Her hands were on his shoulders as she straddled him, creating friction between their bodies by moving her hips over his a few times while he sucked on her hardened nipples, making her moan softly.
She moved back a little to unto his pants and he did the same with hers. They both sat up next to each other to take their pants and underwear off, and Olivia quickly pushed Mike back down on the bunk to straddle him again, keeping her head down so she wouldn't hit it against the top bunk. Mike reached behind her to unclasp her bra and pull it off her arms. Both completely naked now, she smoothed her body over his to kiss him passionately.
Things heated up quickly, hands groping, mouths nipping, licking and sucking and bodies straining to get closer in the confined space of the bunk. Mike managed to flip them over without both of them toppling off the bed, and nestled himself between her legs. Olivia sighed, trying to be quiet, when he started pushing into her. Even after so many times, it always felt like the first time again when he started filling her up, stretching her as he eased into her carefully. She held him close to her, her arms wrapped tightly around his torso and her legs around his thighs. When he started to move slowly, she groaned. Mike put his mouth over hers to make sure they wouldn't become too loud. They weren't the only ones in the building after all, and the door to the cribs didn't have a lock.
Knowing that they might get caught was making them even more horny. They didn't have much to lose now anyway, and when Mike started picking up the pace, Olivia tore her mouth away from his and cried out softly. Mike was grunting in her ear with every powerful thrust and she responded with high-pitched cries as he filled her up even more, hitting all the right spots and rubbing up against her clit with his body.
"Oh yeah Mike," she sighed when he slowed down, moving with slow strokes that went even deeper than before.
Her nipples were scraping his chest and she dug her finger nails in his back while pushing her hips up to meet him, needing even more of him. Her pants were growing louder and Mike sighed her name right before thrusting again each time.
"I love you," he grunted, picking up the pace slightly again but going just as deep still.
"I love you," Olivia answered, tightening her legs around him.
Neither of them noticed the door of the cribs opening a crack as they moved towards the inevitable climax of their lovemaking. Mike pushed himself up on his arms, tilting his hips for the grand finale and rocking into her with a focus that made her scream out as he hit her g-spot. He hit it two more times and she was done, her body convulsing around his throbbing member as her orgasm ripped through her body in waves. Her orgasm triggered his and he pushed one more time before spilling his load deep inside her with a long, low moan. He collapsed on top of her and she held him close as they continued moving, riding out their intense orgasms together and whispering each others' names and declarations of love to each other on their way down from their high.
Just when their mouths met for a searing kiss, Mike still buried deep inside Olivia, they heard the door to the cribs click shut. They broke off their kiss and looked into each others' eyes, shocked. Had they just been caught?
