Olivia woke up, trying to figure out where she was. She was roasting and she realized that she was cocooned against Elliot's body, her head resting against his chest. He had both arms wrapped around her and his face buried in the top of her head. Their legs were tangled and she realized that they were still intimately connected. His body was like a furnace, and after their last round of love-making, they'd been too exhausted to move and had simply fallen asleep as their bodies stayed intertwined. Then she remembered that they were still in the cribs and panic filled her.
She pushed against Elliot's chest, trying to push away from his body, but he murmured something in her hair, still fast asleep. She lifted her head up, forcing his up.
"Elliot." She said in a loud whisper, not wanting to rouse any attention if anyone was around. She had no idea how long they'd been lying there or what time it was. Her only comfort was that it was still pitch black outside. "Elliot!" She said, a little louder, poking him in the ribs. He startled awake.
"What?" he said incoherently, his voice groggy.
"Jesus El. We fell asleep!"
Elliot ran his hands down her back and cupped her ass, pulling her body against his. "Mmmm." He hummed, burying his face back in her hair. "I needed the rest. Damn woman." He joked, pushing his hips against her.
Olivia gasped slightly. She could feel he was getting hard inside of her and her body was already responding as he rocked gently inside her.
"No. No. No." she moaned. "This is serious. We can't. Someone could walk in her any minute. We're playing with fire." She said, trying to think about anything but what Elliot was doing with his body.
"We'll be quick." Elliot said, pulling back slightly before he rocked back into her, eliciting another small moan from Olivia.
Olivia's mind fought her body, but her body won out as Elliot ran his hands up her body, grasping her breast in his hand. "If we get caught, we're screwed." She whispered, a low moan escaping her as Elliot increased the pace slightly.
"You worry too much." He dropped his mouth to her neck, sucking and nipping lightly, moving his body over hers. He braced his hands by her shoulders and Olivia spread her legs wider, opening herself to him. "Oh." She gasped lightly as drove in deeper.
"Oh Liv." He moaned. He rocked into her gently, moving at a slow, languorous pace.
"Faster." Olivia moaned. This slow pace was driving her insane, the sensations coursing through her body causing her to writhe beneath him.
Elliot captured her mouth with his as he started to move faster. Olivia dug her nails into his lower back, her legs wrapped around the back of his thighs as she met him thrust for thrust. He felt her body shuddering beneath him and he increased the pace again, his breath coming in gasps as he plunged hard into her body.
Olivia started moaning loudly and Elliot quickly covered her mouth with his, capturing her groans and swear words. "Shhh." He hummed against her mouth. "C'mon babe." He rocked hard into her and he felt her walls clenching around him like a vise.
Olivia's body was on fire and she was so close. She wrenched her mouth from Elliot's, and arched her back, her orgasm ripping through her body as she felt Elliot's release inside her. She was gasping for breath as the fire tore through her body and Elliot gave her no relief, continuing to drive into her, knocking her clit again and again. "Fuck!" she yelled, wrapping her legs around his thighs and pulling him tight against her, trying to still him. Elliot's arms gave out, and he collapsed on top of her, knocking whatever remaining breath she had. He quickly shifted his weight slightly to the side.
"Jesus Liv." He groaned as her walls continued to clench around him.
Olivia didn't say anything, trying to catch her breath. Her body felt loose and she had no energy, completely spent by the sex they'd have over the past few hours. Elliot pulled out of her slowly and fell on his side next to her.
After a few minutes, Olivia had recovered slightly, her breathing slowed, and she remembered the situation they were in.
Olivia sat up on the cot, looking down at Elliot. "We fell asleep!" She moved around his body and stood up next to the bed. "This is exactly why we can't ever do this again. We could have been busted too easily." She started to scoop up clothing, tossing Elliot his jeans and his t-shirt. "I'm sure this whole room smells like sex." She shook her head, pulling her t-shirt over her head.
"Liv. Relax." Elliot looked at his watch and then reached for her arm. "It's only 3AM." He got out of bed and moved next to her. He rubbed his hand up and down her arm. "We're fine." He pulled her towards him again, wrapping his arms around her. "No one's here." He wiggled his eyebrows at her, pushing his hips against hers again. "In fact…"
"Are you kidding me right now?" She shook her head. "You have to listen to me. This…" she waved her arm around the cribs. "Can't happen again." She looked at him, but he only stood staring at her with a big smile on his face. "I'm going to get a quick shower, change, and get some sleep."
"But Liv." Elliot whined. "You're just going to leave me here?"
Olivia turned around and looked at him standing there. "Save some for later." She teased, wiggling her hips as she walked out of the room.
Elliot grumbled, grabbing his jeans and heading for the bathroom.
EOEOEOEOEO
Olivia took a quick shower, thankful that she had a clean set of clothes in her locker. Sometimes she wasn't very good about making sure of that and she'd had to run home many times to change out of shirts or pants ruined by a suspect or a victim.
When she got back to the cribs, she could already hear Elliot snoring lightly. She watched him sleep for a minute, happy to see that the state she'd left him in hadn't affected his ability to sleep. She smiled, feeling the soreness between her legs and thinking about the past few hours. As much as known they shouldn't be having sex in the cribs, she admitted that she had certainly thought about it before. She could check that item off her list.
She crawled into the cot across from him and pulled the covers up, falling asleep in an instant.
EOEOEOEOEO
She felt someone shaking her and she opened her eyes slowly. It seemed like she'd only been sleeping for a few minutes, but she could see weak light was coming in through the window. She saw Fin standing over her and she opened her eyes completely.
"Liv." He said again, standing up. "Cap'n's looking for you." He said.
Olivia's eyes shot over to the cot across from hers, but Elliot wasn't there.
"Where's Elliot?" she asked, sitting up slowly.
Fin shook his head. "Don't know. That's what I was going to ask you." Fin continued to stare at her as she sat there, trying to wake up.
"What?" she asked. "Is something wrong?" She could tell he had something on his mind and she was worried that something horrible had happened and he didn't want to tell her. Her first thought was of her now missing partner and she felt a mild panic building. "Did something happen?"
"You tell me." Fin said.
"Fin, it's too damn early in the morning for games." She said, rubbing her hand over her face.
"Fine." He said, his tone short. "Do you know who these belong to?" He opened up his hand, and let a pair of white lace underwear dangle from his finger.
She knew she couldn't deny it when she saw him shake his head; he must have read it on her face. "Shit." She said, swiping at the panties and burying them in her lap.
"What the hell are you thinking?" Fin said, sitting down in the bunk across from her. Olivia cringed, thinking maybe they should have changed the sheets, and that Fin would probably die if he knew where he was sitting right now. Thank goodness Elliot had pulled up the blankets whenever he had gotten up.
"Liv!" Fin said again and she realized she had let her mind wander. "You and Elliot doing the nasty up here?"
Olivia' brow furrowed. "Fin!" She didn't want to talk about her sex life with Elliot…with anyone. And especially not with Fin or any of her other co-workers.
"I ain't blind." He said. "I knew it was only a matter of time, but you guys are smarter than this." He scowled at her. "So don't you lie to me baby girl."
Olivia groaned and buried her head in her hands. "I know." She whispered. "It just…"
"Happened." Fin said. "Well you better not let it happen again." Fin's tone sounded dark and looked up at him. He had no love for Elliot, and thought of her like a sister, so she knew how hard this was for him.
"I know. I told Elliot." She said.
"And let me guess. He didn't listen to you." Fin said, shaking his head again. "Asshole." He narrowed his eyes at her. "I know how he can get. Did he force you?"
Olivia stood up. "No! What are you thinking? No." she said, putting her hands on her hips. "He would never do that."
"I don't know. His patience level is zero and maybe he thought enough is enough."
"You can't honestly believe that." Olivia said, pursing her lips together. She knew Fin didn't approve of Elliot's methods sometimes, and that he thought he was controlled by his rage, but he had to know that he would never do that.
Fin let out a sigh. "No." He stood up and seemed to consider what he was going to say next. "Why him Liv? He's such an asshole." He reached his arm out and placed a hand on her shoulder, looking into her eyes. "You got guys falling all over you. You can do better."
Olivia cocked her head slightly, giving him a small smile. "I love him."
Fin sighed heavily. "Shit. I know it. "He shook his head again. "And that asshole loves you too." He dropped his arm. "But I'm telling you, if he ever does anything to hurt you, I'll take him out myself."
Olivia gave him a big smile. She wanted to hug him, but she knew he'd never let her. "I appreciate you looking out for me. You know that." She leaned in quickly and gave him a kiss on the cheek, before he even realized what was happening and could stop her. "You're not as tough as you pretend to be."
Fin stood up straight, and motioned towards her hand, where her panties were still bunched in her fist. "I'm going to keep your secret Liv. But you have to keep that shit out of the squad room." He turned towards the door and then looked back at her. "Oh, and tell Stabler what I said about taking him out."
Olivia nodded. "I'll be sure to tell him."
After Fin left, Olivia sunk down on the bed again. Of all the people to catch them, she was glad it was Fin. She knew he would keep it a secret. He wouldn't even tell Munch. She looked over at the cot Elliot had slept in, wondering where he had gone. She stood up and walked over, stuffing her panties in her jeans pocket. She pulled the sheets and blanket off the bed, and deposited them in the large laundry bin situated against the wall, and then headed to her locker to get cleaned up and start her day.
EOEOEOEOEOEO
Olivia brushed her teeth and her hair, and touched up her make-up. She pulled her panties from her pocket and stuffed them in her bag with her other dirty clothes. When she walked back into the squad room, she saw that Elliot was just walking in with fresh coffee and a bakery bag.
"Good morning." She said, acting as if it was the first time she'd seen him, and she heard Fin grunt at his desk.
Elliot looked over at him, but Fin didn't engage, so he looked back at Olivia. "I stopped this morning and got coffee and some muffins." He said. "I wasn't sure if you'd had breakfast or not."
Olivia shook her head. "No. I haven't."
Elliot handed her the bag and she opened it up, seeing an assortment of muffins. He set her coffee down on her desk.
"John, Fin." Olivia said. "It looks like he brought enough for everyone."
"Well ain't that sweet." Fin said, his voice dripping with sarcasm.
Elliot looked over at Olivia and saw her shake her head slightly, so he blew off the comment as John rolled over in his chair and grabbed the bag from Olivia.
"I know it's usually ladies first, but since Liv wants to be one of the guys, and since I'm starving, I'm going first." John said, digging through the bag and picking out a blueberry muffin. "Thanks Elliot." He said, wheeling back to his desk.
Olivia picked up the bag and brought it over to Fin. "You get next choice." She said, giving him a small smile. She was letting him know that she appreciated him keeping his mouth shut.
As he dug through the bag, Cragen's door opened and he walked out. "Does someone want to tell me why I don't have my two top detectives in my office like I requested at least a half an hour ago?"
Elliot looked over at Olivia, his eyebrows raised. He hadn't even known Cragen had asked for them. By the look on Olivia's face, he was guessing she had forgotten.
"We're coming Cap'n." She snagged the bag of muffins and headed for the Captain's office, Elliot in her wake.
