"What the hell are you talking about? Why would anyone with this case want to hurt me?" asked Olivia.
"Because you know me," answered Jeff, he reached up and gently touched Olivia's face, "you know I wouldn't let anything hurt you right?"
"Jeff." said Olivia grabbing his hand, "your starting to scare me."
"Don't be scared Liv, just tell me you trust me," pleaded Jeff moving his face closer to hers.
Olivia was so confused. What was going on, she had a million questions to ask. Why was he worried about her? And why did she have this overwhelming want to kiss him.
"I know you wouldn't let anyone hurt me Jeff," whispered Olivia, and just then he leaned in and started kissing her.
Olivia knew better. Jeff was nothing but trouble, but she couldn't help herself. It had been a long time since a man had wanted her, had wanted to kiss her and hold her. She let herself fall into his kiss.
Jeff shifted Olivia so that she was bellow him on the couch and he began running his fingers through her short hair. His kisses were hard on her lips, almost angry.not soft like she had remembered. She was about to push him back when there was a knock at the door.
Jeff pulled back. "Who the hell is that?" he wondered out loud.
"I don't know," said Olivia getting up and walking to the door. She looked out the door and saw her partner standing there.
"Elliot.what are you doing here?" she asked opening the door.
Elliot looked up at his partner as he entered her apartment. Her hair was mused and her lips had that swollen look that one only gets when they've just got done kissing someone. At this point Elliot looked over and saw Jeff sitting on her couch.
"I'm interrupting, I should go." said Elliot heading back toward the door.
"No stay," said Olivia giving him a look.
Jeff got up and walked over to where the two were standing."Detective Stabler, I should have known you'd show up here." "Yeah well, I can't say I thought I'd find you here," said Elliot getting into his face.
Olivia was getting the feeling that she was about to witness World War 3, so she stepped in between the two; "Jeff, you should go, I'll call you tomorrow," she said quietly.
"Bye Jeff," said Elliot smiling.
"Hey Elliot," said Jeff turning around, "How does your wife feel about these late night house calls?"
That was it, Elliot had enough, and Olivia couldn't stop him. He grabbed Jeff by the collar and threw him against the wall, "You leave my wife out of this you bastard."
"Elliot," screamed Olivia, "Jeff, go home."
Jeff shook off his shirt and walked out the door.
************************************************************************
Jeff stood out in Olivia's hallway. He'd had about enough of Elliot Stabler; he was just about to tell Olivia everything. Maybe it had been best that Elliot interrupted them.but damn, it felt so good to have Olivia in his arms again.
He kicked the wall and walked out into the cold.
************************************************************************
"So, Elliot, you didn't tell me what you were doing here," said Olivia moving into her kitchen where she began to fiddle with the coffee pot.
"Sorry Liv, I didn't know where else to go.I didn't want to go home."
Olivia turned around and her face saddened, "Oh my god Elliot," she said walking over to him, "I forgot, you had a fight with Kathy, I'm so sorry."
"Hey, it's alright," said Elliot reaching up into her cabinet and grabbing two mugs, "I just didn't want to deal with Kathy tonight, not after everything."
Olivia poured coffee into both of the mugs and the two walked over and sat on her couch. Olivia curled her leg up and turned toward her partner, "so are you ready to tell me what happened?" she asked setting her cup down on the table in front of her.
"Kathy just doesn't want to be a cops wife anymore," he said rubbing his hand down his face, "I don't blame her, I come home late, I leave early.plus."
"Plus what?" asked Olivia with a look of concern. Elliot was about to tell her about how Kathy was constantly jealous of her, when he remember their conversation earlier; "nothing.so what was Jeff doing here?" he asked changing the subject.
"Jeff was here to tell met o get off the case," she said leaning into the couch, "he said if I stayed on it I would get hurt."
"What??" asked Elliot grabbing his arm, "if he lays one finger on you."
"Relax Elliot, he was just trying to get into my pants."
Elliot looked at her sheepishly, "and how'd that work out for him."
"THAT," she said standing up, "is none of your business."
Elliot looked over at the clock, it was 1am."I should go," he said pointing to the clock, "You need sleep."
"Don't be silly Elliot, you can stay here you know."
Elliot smiled at her, "Thanks but."
"No buts." Olivia said grabbing a blanket and a pillow, "get some sleep."
Elliot grinned at his partner, she was so caring, here she'd basically just been threatened and she was worried about him. "Thanks."
************************************************************************
Olivia lay awake in the dark. The words that Jeff had said to her began to sink in, and it began to scare her. What if she was in danger? What if someone was going to hurt her? and more importantly why was someone going to hurt her and why did Jeff know that?
Just then she heard a noise, it was probably just the building settling but in her insomnia state let out a little yelp.
Elliot's eyes popped open when he heard the whimper from his partner's room, grabbing his gun he raced in and found her sitting up in bed, "Olivia? What's wrong?"
"Sorry Elliot, I just heard a noise and." She felt dumb, she was a grown woman, a cop none the less, and she was yelping over a building creak. "It was nothing, sorry I woke you up."
Elliot walked over and sat next to her in her bed, "What exactly did Jeff say to you tonight?" he was suddenly beginning to worry himself.
"He just said that if I don't get off this case I could get hurt.and it was because I knew him. Honestly Elliot, I think he's not telling me everything, I think he's more involved in this case then he lets on."
For some reason her eyes began to well up with tears, she knew it was because she was tired and scared, but it was still stupid. She didn't want to be one of those girls that cried at the drop of a hat.
"Olivia." said Elliot reaching out his arm and putting it around her, "it's okay to be scared."
"I'm not scared Elliot," she said wiping the tear away, "I'm just tired."
"Well here, I'll let you get some sleep," Elliot shifted to stand up.
"Elliot." said Olivia looking at him, "stay."
He looked over at her and smiled, he didn't say anything, he just wrapped his arm around her and brushed a stray hair out of her face.
Olivia smiled, leaned against Elliot and closed her eyes, she felt safe and sleep finally overcame her. Elliot looked down at her and smiled, at least tonight she wouldn't be scared.
"What the hell are you talking about? Why would anyone with this case want to hurt me?" asked Olivia.
"Because you know me," answered Jeff, he reached up and gently touched Olivia's face, "you know I wouldn't let anything hurt you right?"
