"Talk, Ask, Listen" Chapter 21
"Liv, Liv," Alex whispered, gently rocking Olivia on the shoulder with her hand. "C'mon baby …we're okay baby,"
"Nooooo…nooo…fuck noooo," Olivia moaned, bolting from Alex's light grasp and sitting fully upright.
"Babe, I'm right here," Alex said softly, rubbing her hand soothingly over Olivia's bare back. Olivia shook her head and ran her hands through her hair, feeling beads of sweat on her forehead, her scalp and the back of her neck.
"I'm going to get you some water," Alex whispered sliding out of the bed slowly and padding to the mini-bar.
"Thanks," Olivia managed to whispered, still trying to fully free her mind and body from the nightmare she just experienced.
Alex handed Olivia a bottled water and walked to the bathroom to retrieve a hand towel. Alex climbed back into bed sitting behind Olivia and stretching her legs around hers. She gently wiped the towel under Olivia's hair along her neck and shoulders.
"You want to talk about it?" Alex asked softly.
"I don't know," Olivia answered honestly, glancing at the clock. "Hell…haven't even been to sleep three hours…" she trailed off.
"It's ok babe," Alex said, wrapping her arms around Olivia and sliding closer to her until her chest was pressing lightly into the detective's back. She placed soothing kisses along Olivia's neck as they sat in comfortable, knowing silence for a few moments.
"I love you so much Lex," Olivia breathed as she ran her hands along the outsides of Alex's bare thighs.
"I love you too," Alex whispered, kissing and nipping gently at her earlobe.
"I'm glad this is a king size bed," Olivia snickered slightly as her hand felt the dampness of the sheet where she had been sleeping. "I guess we'll just sleep the rest of the night on the other side of the bed. Did it take you long to wake me up?"
"No…I don't think so…I mean when I woke up and heard you and felt you stirring…and shook you…you woke up pretty quickly," Alex replied.
"We were back in the apartment," Olivia volunteered. "And…and Josh…that fucker…it just escalated so quick and I could see the look in his eyes…and I knew he was going to squeeze the trigger…so I fired…but I hit you…I hit you instead…right where Connors had shot you…and I saw your face…I saw the life draining from your face…and then I saw Connors' face and Reckell's face and they both smiled and laughed at what I had done…fuck…fuck…fuck," Olivia sighed as her breathing became ragged.
"I'm right here babe," Alex reassured, squeezing her arms tighter around Olivia. "And I'm not going anywhere."
"Thank you," Olivia whispered, placing the bottled water on the nightstand. "Let's scoot over," Olivia said. "I'm a little chilled."
"Are you comfy now?" Alex smiled, looking down at Olivia, Alex had her head propped up on one hand as the fingers of her other hand traced along Olivia's torso.
"I am comfy and warming up," Olivia smirked. "Can I have a kiss too?"
"Just one? Because I was really wanting to kiss on you…just starting with those gorgeous lips," Alex said bringing her mouth closer to Olivia's as she slinked a long svelte leg between Olivia's.
"I'm not protesting…I just thought since it is late…"
"What," Alex smirked. "We can't really be late to breakfast in bed…can we?"
"No," Olivia replied as Alex pressed her lips to hers, kissing her deeply, but slowly, her tongue tracing Olivia's lips, but not seeking entrance.
"I love you Liv…with all my heart," Alex said as she trailed adoring kisses along her jawline and down her neck. "Just relax baby and let me show you." Alex laced their fingers together as she pressed her body fully into Olivia's.
Olivia relaxed her head into the pillow, closing her eyes and feeling Alex's body on hers, her tongue and lips, flicking, stroking and kissing across her chest. Alex kept their fingers locked, Olivia's hands and lower arms resting on the pillow on either side of her head. As Alex dipped her mouth and gently sucked a firm nipple between her lips, Olivia squeezed Alex's hands tighter, caressing them with her thumbs.
Olivia arched her hips slightly seeking firmer contact with Alex's center, but still reveling in the gentle, slow and thorough lavishing of love Alex was bestowing upon her.
"You are so beautiful Liv," Alex sighed contently as she freed her right hand and stroked through Olivia's hair and then cupped her cheek. "So beautiful," Alex said, kissing between Olivia's breasts as she slid her hand down Olivia's torso and then traced the inside of a thigh with her fingertips. Olivia's leg trembled at the contact and she moaned when Alex slid her soaked center over her other thigh.
"Oh God baby!"
"You like how wet you get me…kissing your gorgeous body…loving you," Alex said huskily, sliding two fingers along Olivia's drenched folds. Alex teased at Olivia's entrance with her fingers as her tongue and lips sucked a previously neglected taut nipple. Olivia pushed into to Alex's fingers, now desperate to feel her lover inside her.
She squeezed Alex's other hand tighter with her own as she felt Alex slide into her with two fingers, her walls clenching around the long, slender digits. Alex moaned at the sensation moving her mouth to Olivia's, seeking entrance with her tongue, as her fingers began thrusting and curling inside Olivia. Olivia arched her thigh, pressing it firmer against Alex's sex. Olivia tore her hand from Alex's, quickly grasping the blonde's ass. Alex buried her face in the pillow next to Olivia's ear as she inserted a third finger inside her lover and began to ride Olivia's thigh frenziedly as her swollen clit throbbed.
"Come with me beautiful," Olivia gasped, so close to release herself.
"Give it to me babe," Alex purred, nipping at Olivia's earlobe before biting and sucking her pulse point as she felt Olivia's inner walls clench around her fingers and her warm, delectable juices pour over her fingers and into her palm. "Fuck…yes…yes…yes," Olivia growled.
Olivia deftly slid two fingers over Alex's pulsating bundle of nerves, and then plunged inside her as Alex's hips thrust forward.
"Fuck Liv…" Alex cried. "So good baby," she said sitting up and pushing her knees into the bed, riding Olivia's fingers and palm wildly.
"That's it babe," Olivia gasped, mesmerized by Alex's beauty…feeling Alex's settled fingers still filling her and watching Alex frantically fuck herself on her fingers and palm. "Come for me Lex…c'mon babe…you are so fuckin' hot," Olivia said huskily, as she pinched a hardened nipple between two fingers of her left hand.
"Fuuuucccckkkk," Alex screamed as the orgasm crashed through her in waves. Olivia slowly pulled her fingers out and brought them to her mouth savoring the taste of Alex as she licked her fingers. Alex slowly withdrew her fingers from inside Olivia, mimicking her lover's actions as she nuzzled against her shoulder.
"I have no words that come close to describe how loved you made me feel and how lucky I am to be able to love you," Olivia smiled, pressing a tender kiss to Alex's forehead.
"I'm so sorry I didn't let us have this so many years sooner," Alex said sincerely, running her fingers gently through Olivia's hair.
"We're together now babe…let's just focus on that and our future," Olivia said sincerely.

Olivia awoke just before 8 a.m. and carefully and quietly slid out of bed. She glanced at her iPhone as she brushed her teeth, noticing two missed calls and one voicemail from local numbers that she didn't recognize. She threw on a sweatshirt, jeans and her black Chucks and decided to head down to the restaurant in the lobby to get a large to-go coffee. She grabbed her room key and opened the door quietly, hearing a crinkling noise under her shoe as she stepped softly into the hall.
She moved her foot away from the newspaper she had just stepped on, her eyes drawn to the headline and photo dominating two columns just below the masthead.
"Cabot Curse," Olivia read the headline aloud and then the sub-head. "Former Manhattan ADA escapes second brush with death." She picked up the paper and headed to the elevator, reading as she walked. She wasn't too pleased with the headline, but as she read the beginning of the article before the jump to page A-5, she sighed in relief recognizing the content as being almost plucked verbatim from the department press release, and the headshot of Alex they chose with her thin-framed black glasses was flattering as well.
After getting a large coffee she padded over to the gift shop and purchased copies of the two other major daily newspapers. Olivia flipped one of the tabloids over and saw the same photo of Alex as in the first paper in a jump box above the masthead. "Deja Death... Heroic Marine war veteran saves Special Victims Unit ADA" the headline read.
Olivia thumbed through the metro section of the third paper, finally finding a short story under the headline "Former Manhattan ADA taken hostage."
Olivia thought of taking a seat in the lobby to read all three articles, but instead decided to order another cup of coffee for Alex from the restaurant and head back to the room. From glancing at the papers and her phone earlier she hoped that maybe this initial weekend coverage would be it…and maybe just maybe their second week together as a couple might resemble something close to what "normal" people might enjoy…whatever that might be.
