John watched Olivia work, smiling when he caught her slipping some of her files onto his desk…wondering if Fin did that when he wasn't looking. Just then a strange man strolled into the precinct and placed his hands onto Olivia's shoulders leaning in John could hear him say "Are you ready?"

"Yeah" Olivia said getting up from her chair and looking over to John gave him a sad look before walking out the precinct with the mystery man. John just sat there as he watched the only woman he's ever loved walk away with a man…a man that wasn't him.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

John sat outside of Olivia's apartment as he contemplated what to do. After 20 minutes he decided that if Olivia was happy with her new boyfriend then he'd be happy for her. Reaching her apartment door he knocked praying to God that he hadn't caught the two together.

"John?" Olivia said wiping the sleep from her eyes "What are you doing here? Its 1:30 in the morning" she said stepping aside to let him in.

Although all John intended to do was tell Olivia he wanted her to be happy even if it wasn't with him, as soon as he saw her all he wanted to do was be with her again.

"I'm such an idiot…I'm so sorry, this past week has been hell, I was too damn stubborn to come here and tell you how much I love you. I thought that it was your fault and I was blaming you for everything when it was me. Everything that was bad in this relationship was because of me…you tired so hard to keep this together and I kept bringing you down because I was scared that if I let you get close enough that I'd hurt you or I'd get hurt and I didn't want to go through that...but after I saw you with that other guy, I thought that I lost you for good. And I tried…God did I try to picture my life without you because you have moved on and I wanted you to be happy, but I couldn't, I couldn't because I know I'm met to spend the rest of my life with you…because I love you" John told her pulling her into a passionate kiss.

"That's the first time you've said I love you to me" Olivia breathed once they broke apart, their foreheads still touching. Olivia's arms around John's neck, his hands on her waist.

"I love you and I always have" Olivia smiled as did John.

"I love you too" they kissed until Olivia broke it.

"John?"

"Hmm?"

"What guy?"

"The guy that picked you up from the precinct tonight"

Olivia smiled and pulled away from John's grasp. "That's my friend from school, he helped me a lot with my mom" Olivia told him.

"Oh…"

"Yeah"

"What do we do now?" John asked after a moment of silence.

"Well…we have a week of not being together to catch up on" Olivia smiled a wicked grin, while running her hands seductively over John's chest and pulling him to her for yet another passionate kiss as the two stumbled toward the bedroom.
