The next morning Olivia lay curled up to the back of her wife content. Naked skin met from the waist up and she smiled as she remembered how their passion for each other had flared when they had merely sort to kiss each other good night. Before they knew it they had both been naked to the waist, kissing desperately while hands had sort as much naked skin as it could find. She had managed to make Alex climax again through a bit of foreplay and a bit of imitation sex through their clothes.

That had cleared the fog in Olivia's head and she had gently calmed Alex and herself telling her she wanted their first time to be tonight. Olivia couldn't wait. There would be no prolonging tonight. Wedding, photos, walk the village outside for them to offer their well wishes, reception to eat then a night of sex. Olivia grinned just as Alex stretched beside her and opened those incredibly blue eyes. Olivia loosened her hold to enable Alex to turn around to face her.

"Morning beautiful" Olivia leant forward and kissed her nose "Ready to become Mrs Benson?"

"I already am" Alex chuckled and leant up on one elbow, offering Olivia an enticing view. Olivia couldn't help the growl that rumbled in her chest and Alex laughed drawing up the sheet to cover herself "Stop that. We have a wedding to prepare for"

Olivia pouted and tried tugging at the sheet but Alex held firm and looked at the clock. 0700, she was surprised Abbie hadn't been there breaking the door down to get in and start the day. As if her thoughts had conjured them up there were footsteps outside the door and some heavy knocking

"Alex, time to wake up princess" Abbie called and Alex groaned while curling into Olivia, maybe she'd make them go away

"Yo Liv, common we gotta spruce you up" Elliott called and Olivia's eyebrows rose. Spruce her up? Not likely

"Go away" she called through the door and upon hearing they were awake Abbie opened the door

"We so have to put a lock on that door" Alex growled and Abbie paused arms crossed at the end of the bed. Serena, Casey and Elliott remained in the doorway

"Common, time to get up. Big day today" Abbie grinned

"You would know how?" Olivia asked "After 9 years you still haven't had the balls to ask Serena"

Abbie scowled at her and turned to look at Serena who had the 'she has a point' look on her face. Abbie growled

"Yeah well she hasn't asked me either" she mumbled and scratched her head "That's not the point, the point is it's your day and from the second I leave this room you have exactly 1 minute to get dressed before I come back in and drag you out, modesty be damned" then she turned and stormed out of the room.

Alex immediately scrambled out of bed and raced for the bathroom, Olivia sighed as she watched her young wife scurry away, took in the beautiful soft skin of her slender back, the delicate arch of her long neck and that lovely golden hair that fell to her shoulder blades. Oh yeah she definitely had the most beautiful wife in the compound.

Abbie pushed the door open again just as she was buttoning up her jeans and Olivia glared at her as she buckled her belt

"Sweetheart it's been 10 years since you've had the right to open that door without knocking" she growled and Abbie's left brow shot up in surprise "It may be my wedding day, I may be in a good mood but don't push me too far Abs"

Abbie stared at her for a long time then shrugged and turned to wave Serena and Casey in. Olivia sighed and tugged on her boots before sitting on the bed to tie them up. Serena and Casey were carrying a small bag each and Olivia really didn't want to know as they started unloading makeup and stuff on her dresser. She rolled her eyes as she stood and grabbed her jacket

"Take it easy on my wife guys. I want her to look like herself not some china doll all painted up" she growled and headed for the bathroom. She could hear water running on the other side and realised Alex was in the shower she knocked and stepped in, Alex's head popped around the curtain looking scandalous

"What are you doing?"

"Getting my toiletries for later, something tells me I won't be allowed back in this room until tonight" Olivia again rolled her eyes. She walked over to Alex, glancing down at the curtain and sighing in frustration that the opaque material hid Alex's nude body. She leant in and gave Alex one last long kiss "You drive me crazy Ms Cabot" she groaned and stepped back. Alex grinned and winked, disappearing into the shower again.

Olivia hurriedly packed the items she needed into her toiletries bag then wishing Alex good luck with the others stepped out into the room. Her three friends sat on the bed, an old bridal magazine in their hands as they discussed different hairstyles. Olivia shook her head and after packing a small tote with fresh underwear, her toiletries bag and a few other items she left with Elliott.

The rest of her morning was filled in the salon where she went to get her hair trimmed. She ended up getting a manicure to pretty up her hands for the wedding ring shot. She point blank refused anything but clear nail polish. She suffered through a face revitalisation pack that the woman insisted on and told Elliott to shut up unless he wanted her to order him to have one. He held up his hands in surrender and told her he would go pick up their suits. She relaxed when he left and allowed a pedicure while waiting for her mask to dry. She then suffered through a back massage and when she was all nice and relaxed they told her it was midday and she had better hurry.

She hurried, meeting up at Elliott's room she was greeted by Kathy and his little rug rats before racing off into the shower to freshen up. She dressed in her clean underwear and a singlet before wrapping her towel around her waist and stepping out into the main room. Kathy had a plate of sandwiches and freshly squeezed lemonade for her which she took time to consume. She was just convincing Kathy she really didn't need the rich chocolate cake on a slightly nervy stomach when Elliot walked in with two carry bags. He looked at them carefully then handed one to Olivia and told her to hurry up and get dressed, they were due at the entertainment room in half an hour.

She scurried into the kid's room while he went into the master bedroom. Olivia's eyes popped wide when she pulled out what was in the carry bag. It was an Officer's blue dress uniform. Oh wow, where had Elliott gotten this from? Never mind. She quickly pulled on the white button up shirt and did it up, next she pulled on the royal blue pants with the gold stripe up the side, tucked in the shirt and added the belt. She pulled on socks and polished dress shoes before going over to the mirror with the tie and attempting to tie it half a dozen times before growling in frustration and yelling for Kathy. Kathy whistled when she saw her then tied the tie perfectly on the first attempt.

"I can't believe you're so nervous. Cool calm General Benson brought to her knees by a girl" Kathy chuckled

"You'd be nervous too if you were marrying the most beautiful woman on the planet" Olivia growled reaching for the navy jacket and pulling it on with shaking hands. She turned and looked at Kathy who had gone quiet and was staring at her agape.

"Oh My God, you love her" Kathy murmured

"Don't be ridiculous" Olivia stated slightly panicked at the thought

"Oh Olivia it's Ok to love her, she's your wife" Kathy smiled and knew better than to push the issue. This was the tough Olivia Benson we were talking about. "Let her into your heart Liv. I think she is a wonderful young woman" she nodded and before Olivia could say anything nodded and stated "Right I better go check Elliott, he's useless at tie tying too. See you at the wedding" and she quickly left leaving Olivia staring at her scowling reflection in the mirror.

She didn't love Alex, did she? A week was too soon to fall in love, besides she didn't fall into all that romantic sentiment crap. She cared for Alex sure, she lusted after her big time, and the chemistry was phenomenal. She had signed a prenuptial saying she wouldn't take other women to her bed so she supposed once the lust ran out they'd be like any other couple, sleeping beside each other, talking nonsense over breakfast and looking after the kids. She would just have to make sure that they were spontaneous enough the lust lingered. 30 was too young to go celibate.

She sighed as she looked at herself in the mirror and had to admit she looked good. Grabbing her hat and all the other bits and pieces that went on the uniform she walked out to the main room. Elliott was there waiting but his family had left. She put up with his teasing as he put her rank sliders in place and all the other accessories. He then went back into his room and came out with two decorative swords. He told her that they were the old Marine Corps officers dress swords.

They were lovely in a polished silver sheath with gold fasteners and the tip was gold embossed. The handle of the blade was ivory coloured plastic with gold plated guard. The blade was silver and beautifully patterned. Elliott wouldn't divulge how he got them but she was happy he did. By the time they secured them on the left side of their bodies they were running a bit late and rushed out.
