Chapter 18: Help me forget

"Not right now. Maybe in the morning."

Alex's POV

It was the morning I really want to talk to Olivia about her nightmare but I know she will talk to me when she is ready. She knows how to deal with things by herself but I want to make sure she knows I am here for her. She has the detectives also but I want to make sure she trusts me with everything. I want her to know that I will be here for her no matter what. I do want her to talk to me about her self-harm, because it is concerning to me. She was hurting herself and I don't want her to do that. She is so kind, beautiful, intelligent, compassionate, humble, and sweet. I think she doesn't feel that she is that great. I know I'm not one who assumes but that is all I can do without her telling me what is going on. I get out of bed quietly and let her get as much sleep as she can. When I go into the kitchen I want to make breakfast but I don't know what she wants. She isn't a picky eater at all, I just want to make something that she likes. I decide on pancakes, coffee, fresh fruit, and more coffee. She is a detective after all, she can't live without her coffee. It doesn't take long to make breakfast but I was trying to make it slow so she could get the sleep she needs. When it is done I go into the room to see that she is awake and is sitting on the bed. It looks like she just woke up, it's quite the sight to see. She smiles at me and says, "Good morning counselor."

"Good morning as well detective." She gets up slowly. I walk out of the room and into the kitchen she follows suit. She walks out and when we reach the end of the hallway she says, "I smell coffee."

"Yes you do, you can't live without your coffee."

"Hey now, yes I can. I just prefer not to."

"Keep telling yourself that." She sees that I made breakfast…and coffee.

"Wow, you went all out this morning."

"No I didn't just a simple elegant breakfast. I wanted you to have a good breakfast. Not just coffee and donuts. That I know you have."

"How do you know that?"

"A little birdie that I have watch you to make sure you are ok."

"You have someone following me. You are something else."

"Yes I am, now shush and eat your breakfast."

"Yes ma'am."

We ate breakfast with minimal talking because we were both really hungry. After breakfast and cleaning up we sat on the couch and discussed what our plans were for the next few days once she can leave the house and go out for an hour or two at a time. They decided that they were going to wait a few days before they would go out just to be safe. Olivia decided that she didn't want to watch TV. She took a few minutes to think about what she wanted to do, she didn't know what she could do. She asks Alex, "What can I do?"

"Anything you want, as long as it is not strenuous. Or could cause you injury. You can listen to music. I have puzzles for when I get bored, crosswords, word searches, you can write more poems, play games on my iPad or on your phone."

"Will you do a puzzle with me?" She asks me shyly

"Yes I will." I walk over to the closet and pulls put a puzzle. Once I gets it down I brings it into the living room. I set it on the coffee table. Olivia looks at the puzzle, opens the box and dumps it out of the coffee. As she begins to search through the pieces, she starts talking. "I can't wait until I can go out, be outside, workout, and go back to work."

"I know honey, but you need to take the time you need to recover. So when you go back to work you will be all better. I want you to be 110% before you go back to work."

"I know. I just don't like being kept."

"I know." We work on the puzzle for about an hour before we finish it. She sits back against the couch, and I curl next to her, being careful not to cause her any discomfort. My face is tucked in the crook of her neck. Her head resting on mine. We just hold each other for a while. I end up falling asleep in the safety of her arms. When I wake up she is the one asleep. I continue to sit here in her arms. I observe her, all the veins that pop out in her arms and legs from all the strength and muscle that is there. The way she is laying is pulling her shirt flat against her core where I can ogle the delicious 6 pack of abs that are there. She is so strong, fast, and graceful all at the same time. She isn't the youngest on the unit but she is in better condition than the youngest. If she is off of work and she doesn't answer the door, she is definitely at the gym at the precinct. She runs 4 miles every other day and on Saturdays she runs 5 miles. She is pure beauty. She is so kind. She is probably the nicest person you'll ever meet.

I get caught up in my thoughts that my fingers trickle across her abs and I didn't realize she woke up. She doesn't make any move to stir me out of my thoughts. The only reason I was pulled out of my thoughts is because I hear a soft whimper and then a small moan escape her lips. I look up and search for the chocolate orbs, I didn't find them what I found was big black pupils dilated from desire. The look of lust and desire in her eyes makes all the moisture in my body go south. She leans down a little and captures my lips with hers. I feel her tongue slide over my bottom lips. She is requesting me to open my mouth and I happily obliged.

I still want her to tell me about her nightmare so I pull back, and ask softly. "Will you tell me about your nightmare?"

"After I just want you to help me forget."

"Are you sure it won't hurt you?"

"No I need it, I want to forget about for a little while. Please Alex help me forget for a little while?"

"Ok." I grab her hand and lead her to the bedroom.
