THE OTHER WOMAN
DISCLAIMER: L&O:SVU belongs to Dick Wolf and a stack of other organizations. Not to me, as much as I wish it did.
SETTINGS: Sequel to 'First Impressions'. It wouldn't hurt if you went and read that first.
SUMMARY: Elliot and Kathy Stabler argue about Olivia Benson. Sequel to 'First Impressions'. FF relationship.
ONWARDS:
"This isn't working."
"W-what do you mean? What's not working?"
"This! Us! God, haven't you noticed? We're falling apart."
"We're not. I mean, it's not…it can't be that bad, right? We can still fix things."
"I don't know if I even want to fix things."
… "What are you saying?"
"I just…I can't do this anymore. We don't talk anymore. You won't talk to me. Hell, Liv talks to me more than you do."
"Olivia?"
"Yes, Olivia."
"What the hell does she have to do with this?"
"Everything! She and I can actually talk about work. We can ask each other about our days, and get honest answers back. We don't hide anything from each other. I can't stand not getting any reaction from you anymore. I…I like the way I feel when I'm around Liv."
"What are you saying?"
"I'm saying…I think I love her."
"What! No, she would never…Liv and I are friends, she would never do that to me."
"You're right. She wouldn't. She has no idea."
"I can't believe you're even saying this. You've never…why now?"
"I just…I can't stand the way things are between you and I. It gets harder everyday, haven't you felt that?"
"…Maybe…"
"We don't work anymore."
"Because of Olivia?"
"Not just because of Liv. You can't blame her for this…she has no idea."
"I can't believe you're leaving me for her."
"I…I'm sorry Elliott. I just…I love her."

Muhahaha. I know, I shouldn't poke fun at the serious fics where Elliott and Liv fall into bed the second Kathy leaves him, but I couldn't get this outta my mind.
