A/N: I know its been forever since I've updated this story. I am so sorry but in my line of work I will be really slow for a few and then balls to the walls as we like to say. This is somewhat of a short chapter but I promise to make it up to you in the next chapter.

Alex groaned the next morning as she woke and tried to stretch some extremely over worked muscles. Once they had walked out of the club Olivia had pinned Alex against the wall in the alley and assaulted her neck. How they ever made it home without breaking several laws was beyond her. She had never seen Olivia so possessive or controlling before. One thing for sure was she loved to see that side of her a little more often.

Alex rolled over to wrap her arms around her lover only to find the bed cold and empty. Afraid she missed Olivia's cell phone going off for a call out she quickly glanced at the back of the bedroom door to make sure her SWAT gear was still there. She smiled seeing it still there and knowing her lover was on the other side of the door. Or at least she hoped she was.

Sliding out of bed and wincing slightly at the pain of her protesting muscles she threw her robe on and sashayed out of the bedroom. She had to grab hold of the wall and will herself to breath when she caught sight of Olivia. She was sitting at the table wearing a skin tight gray wife beater and a pair of black jeans. Her hair was still slightly damp from a shower and it looked as if she had just ran her fingers through it. She was at the table reading the newspaper and drinking coffee. Never in her life had she ever seen anything so hot and provocative as that.

"You plan on sitting with me or just staring at me from where you are?" Olivia asked never once looking from her paper.

"Can I do both?"

"Whatever turns you on?"

Alex breath caught in her throat. What ever turns her on? What turned her on was seeing her sitting at their table in a shirt that molded to her body like a second skin. A shirt that displayed every ripple of her six pack abs when she moved. Or the pants that she knew when she stood would mold to that perfectly developed ass of hers. The pants that would show how every muscle contracted and released with every step she took.

Alex slowly and carefully strutted forward. She snatched the paper from Olivia and tossed it toward the living room. She carefully removed the cup of hot coffee from Olivia's hand and sat it on the table to avoid burning either of them. Pushing Olivia back in the chair she straddled her and groan inward when she saw how dark Olivia eyes had become. That and how she grabbed her and held her tight against her.

"What turns me on officer is a dark haired beauty that rocks my world in more ways than one. An officer who loves me for me and made sure I knew last night that I was spoken for. An officer who gives me all the freedom in the world yet at the same time restricts me in so many ways."

"She must be one hell of an officer." Olivia husked out as she bit down on Alex's pulse point groaning as she felt Alex dig her nails into he shoulder.

"She is" Alex moaned out as she grabbed Olivia by the hair and pulled her back so she could claim her mouth. Teeth clashed and tongues dueled as the kiss intensified. Alex could have sworn her heart stopped beating for a few seconds.

When they broke their kiss both was fighting to regain the oxygen they just denied their bodies.

"Olivia I love you so much." Alex whispered as she felt tears start to form in her eyes "I thank god everyday…"

"Shhh" Olivia said as she placed her finger on Alex's lips to silence "What happened is in the past and exactly where it should stay. What we need to focus on is the present and the future."

"We are" Alex said as she extracted herself from Olivia's hold and made her way to the coffee pot "So what do you have in mind?"

"I was thinking" Olivia said as she stood and walked up behind Alex "We could begin with planning a small wedding. That is if you will have me?"

Alex sat her cup down and spun to face Olivia almost afraid to believe what she was hearing. She covered her mouth with her hand and gasped at the sight before her. Olivia was on one knee holding a black velvet box with a diamond ring.

"Alex you stole my heart the first day I walked into the diner and continue to do so everyday. I can't imagine my future without you in it. Lords know I don't want to, either. Will you please do me the honor of becoming my wife?"

"Yes yes yes" Alex cried out as tears flowed from her eyes.

Olivia stood and slid the ring on Alex's finger before pulling her against her. She slowly raised Alex face to hers and kissed her. She hoped she could convey everything she felt with this kiss.

Alex melted into Olivia's kiss. The amount of love and devotion she felt coming from Olivia made her heart swell. Growing up she had always wanted someone who would stand beside her and support her no matter what. When she started dating she was beginning to think she would never find that. And then Olivia walked into the café and changed everything.
