Alex was back... Olivia couldn't believe that, but mostly she couldn't believe what Alex was doing. Olivia didn't agree with Alex on what she was doing but somehow she agree to help her. She needed to protect that woman and her daughter, that's what she lives for... but was she doing the right thing?. She didn't want to let that man free after all he did to his family but she wanted to do it the right way.

When Peter told her Nick was suing them she couldn't believe it... what did she got herself into? She just wanted to help. When she heard Peter call her 'Liv' she knew he was trying to confort her without getting closer or doing something inappropriate that others will misunderstand, they weren't a couple, they weren't dating, officially, but they were building a strong relationship that neither of them knew if it would be serious or not... but they were willing to take a chance.

They met at a bar, Olivia was the first to arrive, she ordered her usual and waited for him. She couldn't get Jules, Nick, Alex and everything that was going on out of her mind. She felt guilty for Jules death, she felt responsible, she was questioning her choices. When Peter arrived she felt a wave of relief wash over her, he was becoming an important part of her life, a piece of her mind and heart.

"Tomorrow you and I will get up brush our teeth, comb our hair and get behind another bad guy... but right now we will forget about work and we will take care of ourselves" he grabbed her hand and looked at her waiting for her to make eye contact, to tell him she was ok. When she finally looked at him the only thing she could offer was a sad smile, a smile that told him she wasn't ok, a smile that told him she needed him.

"You are right... but it's late I have to go home to Noah"

"Can I go with you?" The moment he ask he screamed at himself for what he just said, of course she was saying no, it was her time with her son.

"That would be a good idea... I may need to talk to someone after Noah goes to bed" she smiled at him and looked at their hands together on top of the table.

His eyes followed hers and he ask himself if it was too much contact, if it was too soon, if she felt uncomfortable. When he was about to ask she responded to his silent question squeezing his hand telling him it was ok, she wasn't uncomfortable, she was ok.

The went to her apartment where Noah was still awake waiting for her. She put him to bed after he shared all his day with Peter and her, they laughed at the way he told everything, he was exited about every little thing he did.

"Finally he's asleep, I thought he was going to be awake for the next hour or so" she came from the hallway with an oversized NYPD shirt that Peter was sure didn't belong to her, well now it did. Also she was wearing yoga pants and she had took her shoes off. It was a side of her he hasn't meet before and he liked it, loved it actually. She looked confortable, so different from her work clothes. So naturally beautiful.

"Hey you ok?" Peter asked when she went directly to the cabinet where the wine was.

"Yeah just a little tired... you want some"

"No thanks I had enough at the bar"

"Oh ok" she looked at the bottle for a minute before putting it back at the cabinet.

"I didn't say that to make you feel bad"

"No is just... you are right we had enough" she sat besides him on the couch where he had taken his jacket off and losen his tie. She noticed his attitude, she knew he had something on his mind, something that was bothering him.

"What's wrong?"

"What do you mean"

"Peter please I know there's something in your head" she took his hand and looked at him directly in the eyes.

"Is my sister... she... I needed to make a choice... I choose to increase her meds. It was the only way to prevent her from... committing suicide" his eyes leaved hers he didn't want her to see him like this.

"Hey look at me"

When he finally looked at her she took his face in her hands.

"I know it must be hard, but it was the best decision, you saved her"

"Thanks Liv" He looked at her, he saw compassion, kindness. He couldn't hold back anymore, he couldn't deny his feelings. He closed the distance between keeping his eyes on hers, asking for permission, when she didn't resist he got even closer slowly kissing her. At first they just wanted to feel each other, but then Peter ran his tongue over her lip and she happily opened her mouth letting him take control. Their tongues were dancing together a slow vals that later turned into a tango.

They broke the kiss and looked at each other asking what had just happened.

"I'm sorry Liv... I didn't meant to... well I did but... what I'm trying to say is..."

"It's ok... we are going through a lot right now... let's just see where this goes... let's just see what happens next"

Hmmmm let's see what happens next ;) Review!
