"Hey Liv," Kathleen said walking down the stairs.
"What's up Kath?" Olivia asked.
"Nothing. I just wanted to talk to you," Kathleen answered.
"Okay," Olivia said.
"Do you have a boyfriend?" Kathleen asked.
"Excuse me?" Olivia asked with a giggle.
"Do you have a boyfriend?" Kathleen asked again.
"Since when do you want to know?" Olivia asked her this time.
"I just want to know," Kathleen answered.
"Well..." Olivia started.
"Yes," Kathleen encouraged her.
"I do not have a boyfriend," Olivia answered.
'Yes!' Kathleen mouthed when Olivia wasn't looking.
"Well do you have your sights set on somebody?" Kathleen asked this time.
"No, not right now," Olivia answered.
"Oh," Kathleen said above a whisper. That's good because it means she doesn't like someother guy, but bad, because it means she doesn't have her sights set on dad, She thought to herself
"Do you want to start dating again?" Kathleen asked.
"Since when do you want to know all of this?" Olivia asked.
"I just want to have a little talk with my dad's coworker," Kathleen answered.
"About my love life?" Olivia asked.
"Well.. Yeah sure, I guess," Kathleen answered.
Olivia nodded her head.
After a couple of seconds of silence Kathleen asked again,
"So you don't have a boyfriend, eh?"
In Elliot's room
"Daddy," Dickie started.
"Yes," Elliot replied.
"Do you want to start dating again?" Lizzie asked.
"Maybe... Why do you ask?" Elliot said.
"We just wanted to know," They both said at the same time.
'Oh' Elliot mouthed.
"So, do you?" Dickie asked.
"Do you really expect me to answer that?" Elliot asked his son.
"YES!" Lizzie and Dickie said at the same time.
Elliot let out a laugh at his twins' curiousness.
"Curiosity killed the cat," Elliot said to his kids.
"Yes, but we know you're not going to kill us," Lizzie said.
"So maybe you could let us know," Dickie said.
"Okay do you really want to know?" Elliot asked.
"YES, YES, YES!" Dickie and Lizzie said.
"I think... I think I am ready to start dating again," Elliot said looking up at his ceiling.
Dickie and Lizzie high fived, and Elliot noticed this gesture.
"What was that all about?'' He asked.
"What?" The twins asked.
"The high five thing, you know," Elliot muttered.
"We don't know what you're talking about," Dickie said grabbing Lizzie and helping her out of the room.
Elliot laughed slightly, and continued what he was doing.
In the guest room
Dickie was pulling out the bed while Kathleen was explaining everything to them.
"So dad thinks he wants to start dating again, and Olivia doesn't have a boyfriend," Kathleen started.
"That's a plus," Lizzie said.
"That's a very good start," Dickie added.
"Yes it is. Now, I need you guys to go back to dinner a couple of nights ago," Kathleen said.
"Ewwwww! I do not want to think about my fish!" Dickie complained.
"Well then, do you remember AFTER Dinner?" Kathleen asked.
"Yeah. Dad got all mad at Liv, and yelled at her on the phone," Lizzie said.
Kathleen nodded.
"But what does it mean?" Lizzie asked.
"Well one, it means that we have to act fast if Olivia is getting a new partner, and two, you will be super thankful of my memory," Kathleen said,
"Why?" Dickie asked.
"Because, if you remember, dad admitted that he loved Liv," Kathleen said.
"He did? How come you know this and we don't?" Dickie asked.
"Because I just do. Now if I remember clearly, he said something like, "A New partner. So what you're just going to throw almost ten years of beating down perps, and working together, and knowing, and saving,' and loving ', and looking out for each other. Well I guess you can just screw that, Screw it all." Kathleen said, emphasizing the words 'And Loving'.
"Wow, you really do have a good memory," Dickie said.
"I know. It's really good for tests," Kathleen said.
"So how do we get them to remember that he said that? Besides, he might just love her as a friend," Dickie brought up.
"Yeah, but he still loves her, we just have to let her know that," Kathleen said.
"Well how is that going to happen?" Lizzie asked.
"I know you may think I'm stupid, but, everytime dad and Liv get mad at each other, they always make up, and then it becomes a soft moment. We need to have a little make up moment, and another Love confession moment," Kathleen said,
"So how are we going to do that?" Dickie and Lizzie asked.
"I cannot believe I am saying this, but we need to get them mad at each other again," Kathleen said, and let out the breath she was holding.
A/N Dun dun dun, do not worry all you EO people, they will only be mad at each other for a short while! Or will they, Hmmmmm. Well who cares, as long as they confess they love each other and make up right! Well again, you can find this out, only if you press the little blue button. Toodles!
