A/N: Okay, I've had this idea poking around my head for awhile. It won't stop bugging me so I decided to write it down... Minor spoilers for "Fault" Rating is for safety due to some swearing in the song. It goes along with the song "When It All Falls Apart" by The Veronicas

Olivia was sitting down on a bar stool thinking of the past day's events. She had just told her captain she wanted a new partner. That's what Elliot was suggesting right? She thought to herself.

This all started when Elliot had blamed her for Ryan's death earlier that day. Then at the hospital he said they can't keep chosing themselves over the victims or else they can't be partners anymore.

I'm having the day from hell,
It was all going so well (before you came)
And you told me you needed space,
With a kiss on the side my face (not again)
And not to mention (the tears I shed)
But I should have kicked your (ass instead)
I need intervention
Attention to stop temptation to scream

Ever since they're talk in the hospital, Olivia's world was falling apart. Yeah they've had tough times before but this was different. This argument had threatened their partnership and friendship. Olivia couldn't face Elliot after what he said to her.

Cause baby
Everything is F'ed up straight from the heart
Tell me what do you do, when it all falls apart
Gotta pick myself up where do I start
Cuz I can't turn to you when it all falls apart
No

Olivia left the bar later that night slightly drunk. She could walk okay but she still stumbled a bit. While she was drinking she thought about what was going on. She wasn't sure if she could trust Eliiot anymore.

Don't know where I parked my car
Don't know who my real friends are (anymore)
I put my faith in you
What a stupid thing to do (when it rains it pours)
And not to mention (I drank too much)
I'm feeling hung over (and out of touch)
I need intervention
Attention to stop temptation to scream

She arrived at her house and sat down on her couch. She was replaying the day's events. How am I going to get back on track? Elliot totally threw me off today. I hope asking for a new partner was the right thing to do... Olivia had so many things running threw her head and she couldn't comprehend most of them.

Cause baby
Everything is F'ed up straight from the heart
Tell me what do you do, when it all falls apart
Gotta pick myself up where do I start
Cuz I can't turn to you when it all falls apart
No

Sometimes Olivia just wished her life could be more normal and easier. She's had alot of bumps to go through throuoght the years and it always seemed nothing was on her side. She never had a normal relationship with anyone and they normally walked right out of her life.

Can it be easier?
Can I just change my life?
Cause it just seems to go bad everytime
Will I be mending?
another one ending once again

Olivia didn't want to split up with Elliot but what if it was for the greater good? She really did love him and knew she'd choose him over the victim again.He probably would too. They could still stay friends. Who said they would stop being friends? They just can't be partners.

Everything is F'ed up straight from the heart
Tell me what do you do, when it all falls apart
Gotta pick myself up where do I start
Cuz I can't turn to you when it all falls apart
No x2

While Olivia was sitting on her couch she got a slight revelation. Maybe we could manage being partners. I'm sure Cragen didn't start filing papers already. I can go talk to him tomorrow. And with that Olivia went to sleep and decided to tell the captain that she really doesn't want a new partner.

Okay, I know it probably sounds corny but it's my first Law & Order: SVU fanfic and this plot just kept pestering me. Please review, Thanks.
