SVU Squad
room
July 16th Elliot sat around his desk
typing to see if he could find out some information on their latest
case. It had been a long, long day and he was exhausted. He looked
across his desk and noticed that Olivia wasn't there, and had been
missing for a while. He wondered if she had left and gone home but
found that he wouldn't be too surprised by it They
hadn't really been on speaking terms, except for when they were
working on a case. He realized that he had actually been kind of cold
towards her lately and they were drifting now. She came in without
saying good morning. He stopped bringing her coffee. They no longer
ate lunch together, and they both left without telling each other
goodbye. He decided that it was time to leave for the
evening. He had plans with his kids, and didn't want to be late. He
began packing up his things and shutting down his computer when he
looked up and saw her walk by the swinging doors. He wasn't sure
but it looked like she had changed into something different,
something fancier. He ran after her and caught her just as she was
about to reach her car."Livia! Olivia,wait!" he
called.She froze. "Shit." She muttered underneath
her breath. "What?" she asked turning around to face him.It
was then that he saw exactly what she was wearing. She wore a tight
sleeveless red dress along with diamond earrings and a matching
necklace. She also wore a pair of red stilettos that matched her
dress. She looked damn good, and he knew it."Going
some where? Like a date?" he asked putting his hands on his hips.
"What's it to you?""I can't
FUCKING believe you.""Elliot you freeze me out for
the past two weeks and now you think you have a right to pry into my
personal life? Give me a break."He walked away a few
steps then turned around to face her. "You know you can be
impossible sometimes. Here I am in love with you ready to spend the
rest of my life with you and you're out dating other guys."
"I'm not dating other guys. I'm just going out to
dinner with a friend.""Well I never seen you wear
something that provocative on a date with a friend.""I
like to look good no matter where I go and no matter who I'm
with."
"Ok, just taking a guess here, but is this friend a guy- friend, or am I just being paranoid."
"You are paranoid, and yes he is a friend, and stop saying friend like that. He's an old friend I ran into that I used to know from college."
"You are so full of shit.""Screw you! Who the fuck do you think you are to be prying into my life like this?""I'm the man that's still in love with you. I'm the man that's ready and willing to spend the rest of my life with you. The man that is giving you time to make up your fucking mind.""Elliot, I don't have time for this if it is so difficult for you to wait for me, move on with your life and I'll move on with mine." She turned around and once again began to head for her car. "I can't believe this! You can't make a decision about us, but you can date some other guy? This is just… ridiculous."She sighed and turned around and walked back over to him. "Elliot, I just need a night out without any strings attached. No decisions to make and by the way your attitude isn't really helping me make that decision. In fact you're just proving one of my points," she stated calmly. "And what point is that?""That maybe you're not really that in love with me. The fact that you don't trust me.""I trust you Liv.""Then why are we standing here fighting then?""Because I'm fighting for you, Liv. I'm fighting for you." "Look El, I'm tired of being by myself. It's just a night out with a friend. He helped out with a lot of problems I had when I was in college and he offered to take me out for a night. It's nothing. If you don't trust me enough to believe that, I guess we're not meant to be together. So if you would just excuse me I'll be leaving now, and I'll see you tomorrow." She turned around and got into her car.Elliot watched as she started her car then drove away, unable to do anything to stop her. He couldn't believe what she was doing. All this and she was just throwing everything away, He couldn't help but wonder whether or not he was letting her do just that. He started to think that maybe it was his fault that she was going out with this guy. This friend of hers. At first he was just a friend and now look where they were. What if she fell in love with him, too? Was she really worth all this trouble, or should he just give up? After watching her car disappear he went back into the squad room, grabbed his things and left to spend time with his children, thoughts of her filling his head.
So you know the drill review for the next chapter and I'll be sure to keep up my end of the deal as always. :)
