Olivia stretched as she woke up. She rolled out of bed and stretched again. Glancing through her bag of clothes, she couldn't remember feeling this rested.
She pulled on her pajama pants and stuck her head out the door. Alex's bedroom door was already open and Olivia could hear the faint sound of the TV in the opposite direction. She walked down the hall, looking for Alex. She wasn't in the living room so Olivia kept going toward the kitchen. When she opened the kitchen door she found Alex, sitting on the counter, reading the newspaper and eating a donut.
Alex caught movement out of the corner of her eye and put her paper down. "Good morning," Alex smiled.
"Good morning," Olivia replied.
"I bought breakfast," Alex motioned to the box of donuts on the counter, "Cops like donuts, right?"
Olivia raised an eyebrow at the smirking ADA. She grabbed a donut and leaned against the counter. "So what's on the agenda for today?"
"It's a surprise," Alex slid off of the counter.
Olivia nodded, "Okay."
They finished eating and went to their separate rooms to change. Olivia was just pulling on some jeans, when there was a knock on her door.
Olivia opened it and found Alex in jeans and a cami. Alex smiled, "The shirt I want to wear is in your closet."
Olivia opened the door fully, "You don't have enough room in your closet?"
"Nope," Alex opened the closet door that Olivia had barely noticed. Clothes filled the top half of the closet and toys filled the bottom half.
Olivia took a step closer. Alex wasn't paying any attention, so she reached down and picked up a foam dart gun. As she was looking it over, Olivia accidentally squeezed the trigger, sending a dart into Alex's leg.
Alex looked at her, "Did you just shoot me?"
Olivia stuttered, "I didn't…mean." But her rambling was interrupted by a foam dart to her arm. She looked at Alex who was standing next to her with another dart gun in her hand.
Alex shot again hitting Olivia's hip. Alex smirked.
Olivia picked up a dart that was in the bottom of the closet and shoved it into the gun. But before she could do that, Alex grabbed a handful of darts, jumped onto the bed to get around Olivia, jumped into the doorframe and disappeared down the hallway toward the living room.
Olivia smiled and loaded her gun completely before sticking her head out the door. There was no sign of Alex anywhere. She exited the door in proper police style and stuck close to the wall. As she silently walked through the hallway, she listened for any noise Alex made. There was none so either Alex was still and waiting for her or Alex was damn sneaky.
Olivia couldn't help, but smile at this ridiculous situation. She was playing with dart guns with Alex Cabot. The same Alex Cabot who she had rarely seen smile before she woke up in the hospital bed.
There was a slight noise coming from behind the couch. Olivia smiled and quickly, but quietly walked over to the couch. She slowly peered behind it to find nothing.
Suddenly, she felt two darts hit her back. She turned around to find Alex pointing her gun and smiling.
"You do this a lot huh?" Olivia asked with a smile of her own. She raised her gun at Alex.
"I do it enough," Alex replied, "Are you gonna shoot me?"
"Are you gonna shoot me?" Olivia asked back.
A sly smile curled itself onto Alex's face, "Yes." No sooner had she said it, she pulled the trigger twice sending two dart into Olivia's abdomen. She ran off back down the hallway as Olivia fired back, but missed.
Olivia followed Alex down the hallway and walked through Alex's open door. She saw Alex peering over her bed, from her crouched position on the other side.
Olivia shot over her head and Alex ducked. Olivia checked her gun. She only had one dart left. As she was examining her gun, Alex fired and hit her shoulder.
"You have great aim," Olivia stated.
Alex's eyes appeared just over the bed, "Lots of practice." She noticed the Olivia only had one dart left in her gun so she stood up. She walked around the bed as Olivia raised her gun.
Alex took a step forward. She snatched the bullet out of the gun and threw it at Olivia. It hit her softly on the nose.
Alex giggled, "I win."
"You win huh?" Olivia asked, tossing her gun aside. Olivia tackled Alex onto the bed. Alex smiled as she easily flipped Olivia onto her back. Alex grabbed Olivia's hands and pinned them above her head.
"Say it," Alex smirked, mere inches from Olivia's face, "Say I won."
Olivia smiled and shook her head, "No way."
Alex leaned down until their noses almost touched, "Say I won."
Olivia's breath caught and her heart pounded. But she was never one to give up so easily. "I won," she choked.
Alex raised an eyebrow and looked at Olivia. Alex shifted her weight so that she was now straddling Olivia's hips. She leaned down so her lips were almost touching Olivia's ear, "Say it." Alex's hot breath on Olivia's ear cause a chill to coarse through her.
Olivia didn't know how much more she could take, "You won."
Alex pulled away with a satisfied smile, "You remember that." She dismounted Olivia and stood up. "C'mon. We're going to be late." With that, Alex walked out the door, leaving a flustered Olivia behind on her bed.
