Olivia laid on her couch with Evan in her arms as they watched cartoons together. Evan looked up at Olivia. "When is my dad coming over again?"

Olivia gave him a kiss on the head. "I don't know babe, we'll see." The truth was, she didn't know where William was, nobody heard from him in days and nobody knew where he was, even Adam.

Casey came into the apartment and her jacket was covered in snow. "I need to move to warmer weather. This is ridiculous."

Evan's face lit up and jumped on the couch. "SNOW! Can we go outside, please mom? Please?"

"It's late honey, it's almost time for bed."

"You might want to clean off your car Liv, it's getting pretty buried." Casey informed her as she took off her coat.

Olivia sat up. "Fine. Go to your room Evan, time to get you dressed." Evan jumped off the couch and ran to his room.

Casey looked over at Olivia. "Talked to Ben?"

"Nope." Olivia shook her head. "He hasn't called me, I haven't called him." Ever since the night in the coffee shop, they didn't talk. She got up and went to get her son dressed so he can play in the snow.

Olivia stood outside brushing the snow off her car as Evan played in the snow on the sidewalk.

"Hey."

Olivia turned around and spotted Ben. "Hey." She stopped cleaning her car.

"I came to talk to you." He moved closer to her. "I'm sorry about how I acted the other night, and the things I said."

Olivia nodded. "I know, it happens. A lot has happened." She smirked. "Hug it out?"

Ben smiled and gave her a hug. "Thank you for not making it a big deal."

Olivia gave him a kiss on the cheek. "I love you." She whispered.

"I love you too." He tightened his embrace. "That's why this is so hard."

Olivia looked confused and looked at him. "What is?"

He let go of his embrace. "I got a promotion." He paused for a second. "In North Carolina."

"You're moving?"

"Next week." He nodded. "You and Evan can come with me."

Olivia let out a deep breath. "This sucks."

"I know." He caressed the side of her face. "I can't pass up this opportunity. You know I have been trying to get promoted for a long time."

Olivia closed her eyes as a small tear ran down her cheek. She kissed his hand that was caressing her face. "I know baby."

Ben took her into another hug. "Come with me."

"You know I can't. I'm finally stable here, my job, my friends, Evan."

He nodded. "I know. I wish you could though."

Evan walked over to the couple. "Hi Ben."

Ben let go of their hug and looked down at Evan. "Hey dude."

"Want to build a snowman?" Evan grabbed Ben's hand

Ben smiled and nodded. "Yeah, c'mon." He let the little boy lead him to the pile of snow he gathered up.

Olivia smiled and started cleaning off her car again.

Evan threw a snowball at Ben and hit him in the face. The little boy started giggling. Olivia saw it and let out a small chuckle. Ben wiped his face and instantly grabbed Evan. He lifted him over his head. "That's it, I'm throwing you in the snow."

Evan burst into laughter. "No!"

"Olivia you don't need him right?" Ben teased and headed to the snow pile.

"Nah." Olivia laughed.

"Any last words to your mother?" Evan just kept laughing as he laid in Ben's arms. "Apologize."

"I'm sorry." Evan apologized.

Ben shook his head. "Not good enough." He tossed Evan in the snow pile. Evan jumped up and jumped into Ben's arms.

"Ben." Evan hugged him around the neck. "Why was mom crying?"

Ben looked at the little boy and then Olivia. He kneeled down and put Evan down in front of him. "Mom's just a little sad because I have to leave. She will be okay."

"Where are you going?"

"I'm not going to live in New York anymore. I have to go somewhere else for my job."

Evan nodded. "Oh." He looked at his snowman and then Olivia, and back at Ben. "What about our snowman?"

"I'll be here for a couple more days." Ben answered and zipped up Evan's jacket.

Olivia finished cleaning her car by then and went over to the boys. "Time to go in." She brushed the extra snow off of Evan. "C'mon."

Evan listened to his mother and ran into the house. Ben stood up and rubbed Olivia's shoulder. "I'll see you around this week?"

Olivia took his hand. "Want to stay the night?"

Ben looked shocked. "What? Me? With Evan under the same roof?" He teased. Olivia didn't let him stay the night unless Evan wasn't there.

"Yeah. You." She smiled. "You're leaving soon, might as well enjoy you while I can."

"Wow." He put his arm around her. "With this treatment, I might just get a job at McDonald's just to stay here."

They were about to go in when they saw a car pull behind Olivia's. William stepped out. He walked over and slightly nodded. "Ben."

"William." Ben raised an eyebrow.

To all of their surprises, William put his hand out toward Ben. "You tried being nice when you first met me, I didn't give you a chance. I respect that you make Olivia happy and you're good to my son. I'm sorry."

Ben stared at William's hand and slowly shook it. "I'm sorry I can be a jealous dick. You're Evan's father, you should be around."

William nodded and glanced at Olivia. "Can we talk for a second?"

Olivia nodded. "Yeah." She looked over at Ben. "Give me a second ok? I'll be right up."

Ben nodded and went into the apartment. Olivia looked over at William. "I'm impressed."

"Yeah. I just needed a couple days to get my head on straight. He seems like a good guy. You seem happy."

Olivia nodded and guided him to the stairs in the hallway of the apartment. They both sat down. "We're going to break up."

"Why?"

"He got a promotion. He has to move to North Carolina in a week." Olivia wiped her teary eye. "It's like God knows I'm horrible in long distance and takes all the good guys away."

William put his arm around her shoulders. "I'm sorry Liv."

"No you're not."

"Yes I am." He stated genuinely. "I know how many relationships you have been through and how many douche bags didn't stick around." He pulled her closer. "C'mon. Hug it out."

Olivia smiled and hugged him. "Thanks. I'm glad you're back." She whispered. "You know, you never stopped being my best friend, even after we broke up."

He nodded. "I know. Same here." He rubbed her back and let her go. "How about I take Evan for the night? You and Ben can have some alone time."

"What? Really? You're apologized to Ben and you're letting him get laid?" Olivia teased.

"Ok. I don't need to know what you will do when alone. In my mind, you will be playing scrabble."

Olivia smiled. "Yeah, playing scrabble really hard." William leaned on her until she started laughing. "Fine, it's monopoly."

William let out a chuckle and stood up. "C'mon."

Olivia packed Evan's clothes up in his book bag as William sat in the living room with Casey. Ben was in Olivia's bedroom.

"Why haven't you called Adam?" Casey asked William.

William shook his head. "I haven't talked to anyone."

"He is your best friend. And you know how sensitive he can be."

"Since when are you guys so close?"

"I don't know. I really like him." Casey shrugged. "We've been spending every minute together." She leaned into William to whisper. "We're thinking about moving in together."

William shook his head knowing that Adam and Casey we're spontaneous. Neither thought things through. He leaned in to Casey to mock her. "You barely know him."

Casey rolled her eyes. "Yeah, but I've been meaning to move out of here. Get out of Olivia's way. Plus, Adam is trying to move off the base."

William glanced at Olivia getting Evan dressed. He also whispered. "I highly doubt she wants you moved out. Ben is moving, they are going to break up."

Casey's mouth dropped. "Oh no. That sucks. They are totally in love." She looked up at William. "Sorry."

"It's fine" William nodded. "That's why I'm taking Evan for the night, give them some alone time."

"Wow, look at you being a grown up." Casey smiled. "Proud of you."

Olivia came out with Evan and his bag. "He is all yours."

Evan went over and climbed on top of William's lap. "What are we doing tomorrow?"

William laughed and picked him up on his shoulder. He got up and grabbed his small bookbag. "I don't know yet. Maybe we can go sledding?"

Casey glanced at Olivia and then William. "Hey, can you drop me off at Adam's?"

William looked over at her realizing she wanted to leave Olivia with her boyfriend. "Yeah. Sure."

Olivia gave Evan a kiss on the cheek. "You be good ok? Don't make trouble. I love you."

Evan kissed her back. "Love you."

Olivia slightly nodded at William. "Thank you."

William nodded and carried Evan out with Casey following.

Olivia went into her bedroom and found Ben asleep with the TV going and he was watching ESPN. Olivia smiled and turned the TV off.

She took off her jeans and hoodie. She crawled into bed with her boyfriend. Ben shifted feeling her and wrapped his arm around her. "Hey" He whispered sleepily and laid his head on her chest.

"Hi." She put her arm around him and rubbed his head. "Take off your jeans babe, you'll be more comfortable."

"Oh detective. I see what you're trying to do." He cuddled up to her more being half asleep. "Trying to get my naked."

"William took Evan for the night. Casey went to Adam's. We have the apartment to ourselves." She put her hands on his belt and started undoing it.

"What?" Ben opened his eyes. "Ok I'm awake." He rubbed his face. "I'm ready to go." He rolled on top of Olivia. Olivia burst into laughter. He straddled her down and took off his shirt. "Why is William suddenly nice?"

Olivia touched his tight stomach and then his pecks. "He is a good guy. I think the whole war think messed with his head. He has been through a lot you know?"

"Like PTSD?"

"Maybe. I don't know." She playfully threw him onto the bed and straddled him down. She grabbed his wrists and held him down. She began kissing his bare chest and went down to his waist. She unzipped his jeans and kissed him over his boxers.

Ben sat up and lifted up her head to look at him. "I wish I met you earlier. You're one of the best things to ever happen to me." He whispered.

Olivia smiled and sat on top of him. She placed her hands on the back of his neck and gave him a deep kiss. "Make love to me." She whispered against his soft lips.

Olivia woke up the next morning completely naked except for the blanket across her. She looked over and Ben was sound asleep, she stole the blanket and he was completely naked sleeping on his stomach.

Olivia kissed his shoulder and then got up. She put the blanket over him. She grabbed her robe and went to the bathroom. She came back and laid next to her boyfriend who was starting to wake up.

"Babe?" Ben whispered.

"Yeah?" Olivia looked over at him.

"I had a bad dream." He mumbled sleepily.

"Oh baby." Olivia turned around and hugged him from the back. She kissed his cheek and rubbed his bare chest. "Want to tell me about it?" He shook his head. "Want me to turn on the light and make some coffee?" He nodded. "Your such a baby" She gave him another kiss and got up.

She went to the kitchen and started making coffee. She felt a pair of arms wrap around her waist. "Feeling better?" Olivia asked out loud with a smile.

Ben nodded against the back of her head. He was only in his boxers. "I love a woman who makes me coffee in the morning." He kissed the back of her neck.

She turned around to face him and started making out with him. She stopped after a while and looked up at him. "I have a favor to ask you."

"Of course you do." He looked at her suspiciously. "What?"

"Elliot is having a birthday party tonight, and I was wondering if you want to be my date? Please?" She pleaded.

"I…" He let go of her. "I don't know Liv. You know I don't have anything in common with all those cops. You guys love guns and I hate guns. They always tease me for being a republican."

"Well baby, you're a liberal republican." Olivia teased and walked over to him. "Just for a couple hours."

He let out a deep breath. "Just because I'm leaving. Fine." He rolled his eyes. "Couple hours though."

Olivia smiled and gave him a kiss. "Thank you."
