Chapter 8
Elliot really couldn't sleep well. He was lying on top of the bed, it was a bunk bed. It reminded him of prison, although a lot more comfortable and there were no bars. None the less he thought about John and Olivia. He finally dozed off when Fin came running in the room. He threw open the door and called to Elliot.
"What's wrong?" Elliot asked panicked.
"I think he's going to try something on Olivia" Fin told him out of breath. Elliot nodded and jumped down from the top bunk.
"You go get Munch and Liza" Elliot told him.
"Ok you go to the recreation room. That's where I found them" Fin told him as they both ran in separate directions. Elliot made his way as quick as he could to the rec room. The door was open and he peered in, not wanting to be seen yet. Olivia was sitting on the comfortable couch, John's arm around her. They were watching a movie. Elliot spotted Munch, Liza, and Fin coming. They made sure to be quiet.
"it's almost ironic people come up here to get away from the city and they watch television and movies- like its apart of nature" Munch said quietly and Elliot glared at him. The group watched, Fin, Liza, and Munch on one side of the door way. Elliot on the other side. Elliot watched as John turned to Olivia. He moved in closer and tried to kiss her. Olivia turned away.
"Not right now" Olivia told him.
"Awe why not? What's wrong?" He asked sweetly as he brushed the hair out of her face.
"Just not now" Olivia told him.
"Come on" John tried to influence her. He leaned in and started to kiss her neck gently. She liked it but it just didn't feel right. She pulled away after a moment.
"Not right now" She repeated as she pulled away from him a little and continued to watch the movie. Elliot was ready to pounce on John and kill him if he touched her again. Fin, Liza, and Munch went to another room to get something to drink while Elliot waited and watched patiently. John made another move after a bit.
"Come here you" he smiled as he put his hand on the back of Olivia's head and pulled her close. He kissed her passionately as she tried to push him off.
"I said no" Olivia clarified. John quickly came around and hit her across the face. She put her hand to her cheek, feeling the blood starting to drip. John wasn't happy with her attitude.
"You need to watch your attitude" he glared at her.
"Excuse me?" Olivia asked moving a little further away from him on the couch.
"I said watch your attitude. Now I'm ready- when I'm ready that means you have to be ready" John grind his teeth as he talked. Elliot wasn't exactly sure when to break in, but if it was too soon it could ruin things, and if it were too late… he just stood and watched ready to break in any time. John sat closer to Olivia and as he grabbed her by the hair he kissed her. He held her in place and kissed her. She tried to push away but the pain from him pulling her hair was her main concern. Elliot knew it was time. He ran in and grabbed a lamp. He whacked it over John's head, and John released Olivia's hair. Olivia stood up quickly and wrapped her arms around Elliot. He was surprised but John wasn't done yet so he knew he had to get Olivia safe. He pushed her away gently while John stood up.
"Who do you think you are?" John asked.
"Who do you think you are?" Elliot asked back.
"I'm her husband" John told him.
"Not officially." Elliot went over to Olivia and she handed him the ring from her pocket.
"I suggest you save this because you'll need the money if you ever want to get out of jail again"
"Jail? I didn't do anything criminal"
"Attempted rape- that's a criminal offence… and I can almost bet you've raped before" Elliot grabbed the man by his shirt. John punched him again in the stomach. This time Elliot punched him back.
"Elliot" Olivia broke in. He calmed his self and as he backed down Fin, Munch and Liza came in. Liza took Olivia out of the room to get her cleaned up. Fin and Munch detained John.
