**Just when I trusted and a whole life I imagined
Just when I closed my eyes and jumped not knowing what was coming next **
Somewhere in Alaska...
For more than eight months without talking to her and homesickness hitting harder than before! Alaskan winter is more severe than other seasons, and Alexandra Cabot knew she shouldn't feel weak that way, since it's for your safety to stay in that state and that city.
It's past 3 am and a cell phone desperately rings. Alexandra gropes the dresser next to it, finding the object.
— Hello?
— Alex? — a female voice asks in a loving way.
— It's me... who is it? — Alexandra responds already imagining that it's something related to her job as assistant prosecutor.
— It's Liv...
At that moment, Alexandra feels her body stir, her heart beats fast and she bites her lower lip for fear of crying when she hears the voice she has been missing for months.
However... for your safety and that of Olivia Benson as well, Alexandra knows that she shouldn't be encouraged and much less like that connection, however painful it may be.
— Olivia?! What you want? — Alexandra asks pretending irritation, sits on the bed and looks at the digital clock announcing 3h02m. — It's dawn...
— Sorry, I didn't mean to disturb you... but it's just... — Olivia starts to explain in a weak voice.
— Are you okay, Liv? Are you drunk? Did something happen? — Alexandra questions trying not to cry more than she already cries for talking to the woman she most wants to see again.
— Well... I'm not drunk... but something happened, yes... I wanted to see you... I need to see you, Alex... — Olivia says softly. — But I believe you're not too excited for that... or that you don't even miss me.
Alexandra doesn't answer, walks to the bathroom, closes the door and leans her body against the cold wood, wishing not to cry as she does at that moment. Of course, she wants to see Olivia more than anything in the world, to feel those kisses again, to laugh again at the nonsense she says and to feel that body against yours one more time.
So, still keeping her fortress inside, Alexandra sighs heavily when she says:
— Liv... you know we can't... We promise that we could take it and that we would go on with our lives... Please don't call me anymore… don't make it difficult!
— No, Alex, wait! Please don't hang up! — Olivia pleads in a tired voice and seems to cry weakly. — Please... I need to see you...
Shaking your head and forbidding your heart to feel happy when she hears that Olivia misses her too, Alexandra sighs before answering:
— Okay... we can video call...
— Ah, well, now I can't... — Olivia answers leaving Alexandra confused.
— Really?! Where are you?!
— I'm at the corner of your house, almost stopping the car I rented in front of your home. — Olivia answers in a crying voice.
At that moment, Alexandra opens her eyes wide and tries not to believe it.
— What do you mean, in front of my house?! I'm not in New York, you crazy! I'm still in...
— I know! I'm in Alaska, in your city, in front of your house! Put on a nice warm outfit and go outside... — Olivia's voice sounds cheerful before hanging up.
Alexandra can't say anything right away, puts her cell phone next to the sink and turns on the tap. After washing her face, she looks at herself in the mirror, trying to understand how Olivia Benson would be in Alaska, right in front of her house?!
— Ah! What am I doing here?!
She runs to the closet, where she chooses any outfit, putting on gray sweatpants, a black hooded sweatshirt and sneakers. After passing on a deodorant and the perfume that Olivia had always adored, she ran out to the living room.
— Crazy! She can't be serious?! — Alexandra stops with a hand on the door handle and starts laughing a little nervous. — What am I doing?! Olivia is not here! Can this all be a dream?! We promise that we will be strong and endure the necessary time! If the WPP finds out, she could lose her job...
Then, sighing heavily and deciding to confirm her madness that the detective isn't in front of her house, Alexandra opens the door and her legs almost soften when looking at Olivia Benson wearing a winter outfit and leaning against a jeep while displaying her beautiful smile.
— I can't believe it?! — Alexandra mumbles trying not to let her passionate side speak loudly and not wanting to be weak, even though it's the love of her life right there. — Olivia...
Opening her arms, Olivia exclaims:
— I don't care about anything now, Alex! Nothing else! I want you and nothing will stop me from seeing you! Eight months is a long time for those who love...
With silly tears falling from her face and nibbling on her lower lip, Alexandra exclaims:
— You shouldn't have done that, Liv! If they find out...
Olivia walks up to the door and, extending a hand to the blonde, murmurs:
— I don't care... Right now, Alex, I don't care about anything other than finally touching your hand and kissing your lips...
Alexandra seems to hesitate for brief seconds as if she feels a certain fear of something bad might happen, but her love and longing for the detective speak louder. The instant your hand touches Olivia's, your body finally seems to come to life, as if she has been in a coma for all these months and is finally awake, and your breath merges with hers.
— I missed you so much, Liv... But we can't... and if they...
No longer standing that and neither your desire to finally have that woman again in your arms, Olivia holds the blonde in her arms and, after eight months, she kisses her intensely. The world around them fades and all that exists is them, leaving Alexandra with a passionate smile on her lips between kisses.
— We can't, Liv... You crazy... — Alexandra stops the kisses and stares intensely at the brown eyes. — What are you doing here?! How did you find me?!
Smiling while caressing the blonde's face, Olivia seems happy when she sees those blue eyes that she misses in her daily life.
— Nothing else matters now, Alex... I came to pick you up to go to a place that no one will find us and that we can stay for a few days without the fear of someone finding out that I'm here...
— Liv... — Alexandra says without believing it all. — Are you crazy? What place? What do you mean?
Kissing again the lips of the woman she loves, Olivia mumbles:
— Do you still trust me?
At that moment, without having to think or even tremble, Alexandra looks intensely into those brown eyes when she replies:
— I trust you with my life... When do we leave?!
