"Dada!" Mikey smiled as Elliot walked into the apartment. Mikey ran into Elliot's arms and he smiled picking him up.

"Hey little Man!" Elliot smiled.

"I miss'd you" Mikey smiled hugging him tight.

"I missed you too" He smiled kissing Mikey's head.

"El, is that you?" Olivia called from the kitchen.

"Yeah" Elliot responded as he walked into the kitchen. "Morning Beautiful" He smiled kissing her cheek. She turned around and smiled.

"Morning" She smiled wide kissing his lips lightly.

"Eww!" Michael squealed in Elliot's arms.

"Time to eat my little man" Olivia said kissing his head. Elliot took Mikey over to his chair and sat him down.

"Ank you dada" Mikey said smiling.

"You're welcome" Elliot smiled before he sat down next to Mikey.

"For my little man" Olivia smiled setting the plate in front of Mikey kissing his head. "And for my big man" She said kissing Elliot's cheek.

"Ank's Momma" Mikey smiled before he started eating.

"Thanks Liv" He smiled watching her sit down.

Olivia smiled over at the two men in her life. Never did she ever think that she would get this lucky. She smiled as she watched them eat. It felt so domestic, Olivia never saw herself as the house wife type, but being together like this… that she could get use to.

Olivia couldn't wait for tonight. Alex was taking Mikey and she and Elliot were finally going out on a date together. She couldn't wait, he and Alex went shopping yesterday and she bought the perfect dress. She has never been this excited over a date before. She smiled down at her food before she finally started eating.


"Bye baby, be good for Aunt Lex. Okay?" Olivia said smiling at her son.

"We'll be fine Liv" Alex smiled. "You just have fun, be a good girl for the detective" Alex winked.

"Alex!" Olivia said sternly. "Not in front of my son!" Olivia said trying not to smile.

"It not like he knows what we are talking about" Alex rolled her eyes.

"Have fun you too" Olivia smiled.

"We will" Alex smiled.

"Bye Momma" Mikey said waving.

"Bye baby" Olivia smiled.

"Try to keep the dress on till you get to the apartment. please?" Alex said grinning.

"Alex!" Olivia said, she watched her best friend walk into her apartment laughing. She shook her head.


Olivia looked in the mirror. All her makeup was done and she was just finishing her hair. She had it pulled back into a loose bun, she pinned it off to the side. She had two curls outlining her face. She smiled at her appearance. Tonight will be one to remember she though. She checked the time and realized she had about a half and hour till Elliot go there. She smiled softly and wrapped her robe around her before she walked into the kitchen for a glass of water. She didn't want to put the dress on and risk something happening.

She finished her water and walked back into her room. She pressed the play button on her speaker and Bound to you by Christina Aguilera. She couldn't help but laugh as she listened to the lyrics. This song fit her and Elliot so perfectly. She started to softly sing as she walked around her room.

Sweet love, sweet love

Trapped in your love

I've opened up, unsure I can trust

My heart and I were buried in dust

Free me, free us

You're all I need when I'm holding you tight

If you walk away I will suffer tonight

I found a man I can trust

And boy, I believe in us

I am terrified to love for the first time

Can you see that I'm bound in chains?

I've finally found my way

She went and grabbed her dress, she smiled as she looked down at it. It was an Ivory colored dress with dark navy lace all over the top and faded as it went to the bottom. The top was a sweetheart neckline and an open back. The dress went all the way to the floor. The second she saw this dress she knew that it would be the one she bought. She started singing along smiling to herself as she slipped into the dress.

I am bound to you

I am bound to you

So much, so young, I've faced on my own

Walls I built up became my home

I'm strong and I'm sure there's a fire in us

Sweet love, so pure

I catch my breath with just one beating heart

And I embrace myself, please don't tear this apart

For the first time since she heard this song she could actually relate to it. This song is her life with Elliot, no doubt. She quickly put her heels on and started to loose herself in the song. She started to spin around her room dancing in her dress getting lost in the music.

I found a man I can trust

And boy, I believe in us

I am terrified to love for the first time

Can't you see that I'm bound in chains?

I've finally found my way

I am bound to you

I am bound to

Suddenly the moment's here

I embrace my fears

All that I have been carrying all these years

Do I risk it all? Come this far just to fall?

Fall

Elliot stood in the door way of Olivia's bedroom, she didn't answer the door so he walked in and followed the music. He wanted her sway around her room with her eyes closed. She was wearing the most beautiful dress he had ever seen and he couldn't believe he had gotten so lucky. He slowly walked over to her and pulled her close. Her eyes snapped open and she relaxed realizing it was Elliot. She blushed deeply, he caught her dancing and singing in her room. He had her close to his chest and his hand was around her waist, He took her hand in his as he started swaying slowly. She smiled as they danced to the end of the song.

I can trust and boy, I believe in us

I am terrified to love for the first time

Can you see that I'm bound in chains?

And finally found my way

I am bound to you

I am, ooh I am

I'm bound to you

As the song came to an end he smiled down at her her eyes were closed and her head was against his chest. He leaned down and kissed her forehead. Her eyes fluttered open and she blushed. He smiled down at her.

"You look so beautiful" He whispered into her ear. With her heels on she was almost eye level with him. She smiled and pecked his lips.

"You don't look bad yourself" She grinned.

"Ready to go?" He asked. She looked around and grabbed her shawl and hand bag before she took his outstretched arm and they made there way out to the car Elliot had waiting.

Olivia looked at him baffled. He got them a car? Just for a date? On a cop salary?

"You deserve the best" He whispered knowing exactly what she was thinking. She knew that wasn't true, but now was not the time for arguing. The driver opened the door for her and she slid in followed by Elliot. He smiled and kissed her temple.

"To Le Bernardin please" Elliot spoke.

Le Bernardin? that one of the most expensive French restaurants in New York! Olivia thought. If she was being honest she's always wanted to go there. It sounds like such an enchanting place.

When they pulled up Olivia was not disappointed. Elliot helped her out and they slowly walked in.

"Hello, How may I help you?"

"Reservation for Stabler?" Elliot said squeezing Olivia's hand.

She looked down and typed on the iPad in front of her.

"Stabler, right here" She smiled. "Your table isn't ready quite yet? Would you two like to stay in the lounge and we will get you when it ready?" The woman said smiling.

"Thank would be great thank you" Elliot smiled back.

"Right this way" The woman said leading them to the lounge. "I will come and get you when your table is ready Mr. Stabler" She smiled before walking away.

"El! This is amazing, I cant believe you did this for me" She breathed looking around.

"You deserve the best and I plan to give you just that." He kissed her temple and took her hand leading them to the bar.

Olivia's heart fluttered, this was going to be the best night of her life. She smiled following Elliot.
