Her alarm went off an hour earlier than normal. Alex started getting ready as usual, but put on some jeans and a hoodie, that didn't have any bullet holes in it. She grabbed a suit out of her closet and some acceptable court shoes.
She stopped by a bakery and got two cups of coffee and some bagels, muffins, and a few Danishes. She got back into her car and drove the rest of the way to Olivia's apartment.
Once there, she quietly unlocked the door and stealthily closed it behind her. She was trying to be silent partly so Olivia wouldn't wake up before she got there, and partly because she didn't want Olivia to shoot an unexpected intruder. Getting shot twice in the same week was definitely not on the ADA's itinerary.
After leaving her shoes at the door, she tiptoed down the hallway, coffee and breakfast in hand. She smiled when she saw Olivia, still sleeping on her stomach, sprawled out on the bed, with her mouth slightly open. It was the most adorable thing Alex had ever seen.
She silently walked over to the less occupied side of the bed and set the breakfast on the nightstand and turning the alarm off. Alex slid into the bed next to Olivia and Olivia instinctively draped an arm around her waist, not waking up.
Alex smiled and slid her hand over Olivia's stomach stopping at her back and snuggled her face into Olivia's neck. Then she gently kissed the detective's neck and slid her hand under Olivia's shirt to stroke her skin.
"Mmm," Olivia moaned.
"Wake up sleepy head," Alex smiled and continued to kiss Olivia's neck.
Olivia's eyes fluttered open. She smiled and pulled Alex closer, "When did you get here?"
"A few minutes ago," Alex replied, trailing kissed up Olivia's neck, ending with a soft kiss on her lips.
"You really came all the way here to wake me up like this?" Olivia asked as Alex rested her head a few inches from the detective's.
Alex nodded.
Olivia smiled, "You really are the sweetest person on the planet."
Alex nodded, "Just don't tell anyone. No one would be scared of me anymore."
Olivia laughed, "No problem sweetie." She pushed a stray hair out of Alex's face and kissed her, "I love you."
It felt so good to hear that. Alex replied, "I love you too." She rolled over and picked up the bag on the nightstand, "I brought breakfast and coffee."
Olivia sat up in bed and stretched, "You're an angel."
They sat in Olivia's bed, eating and talking.
After they were done, Olivia went to get in the shower and Alex cleaned up the small mess from breakfast. She threw the trash away and walked back to Olivia's bedroom, letting herself fall on the bed and snuggle up with one of the pillows. She buried her face in it and inhaled. It smelled just like Olivia. She closed her eyes, more comfortable than she'd ever been in someone else's bed.
The bathroom door opened and Olivia stepped out in a towel. Alex opened her eyes and saw a wet, towel clad Olivia standing next to the bed smiling. "Comfortable?"
Alex nodded, "Very much so."
"Good," Olivia leaned down and kissed Alex's temple.
"You look amazing in a towel," Alex smirked, propping herself up on her elbow and watching Olivia walk over to her closet.
Olivia chuckled, "I do?"
Alex nodded, "I'm pretty sure you'd look better without it though."
"Really?" Olivia raised and an eyebrow.
Alex smiled and dropped her head onto the pillow, "Yeah."
"Are you doing anything tonight?" Olivia asked, slipping underwear and an undershirt on under the towel, without showing a thing. She dropped the towel on the ground and walked over to Alex.
Alex rolled onto her back and looked up at Olivia, "I don't know, am I?"
"Yeah." Olivia crawled up the bed and held herself over Alex. Alex saw the muscles in Olivia's arm flexing while they held Olivia over her and Olivia's face so close. She felt herself melt into a puddle.
Olivia lowered herself down and kissed Alex sweetly, kissing a trail down her neck and up the other side. As she brought her mouth to Alex's again, Alex reached up and tangled her fingers in Olivia's damp hair.
"We're…" Alex tried to keep herself focused on speech long enough to complete a sentence, "Gonna…" Olivia gently nibbled at the base of her neck causing a moan to escape the blonde. "Be…late."
Alex felt Olivia's hand slid under her shirt and play around her bellybutton.
"Liv," Alex could barely breathe. If she didn't stop Olivia now, she couldn't stop her at all. She managed one last syllable. "Late."
"But you taste so good," Olivia whined into Alex's neck.
Alex smiled and pulled Olivia up and in for a kiss, "I'll be here after work."
Olivia sighed and rolled off of the bed, "I'm taking you out tonight."
Alex's eyes lit up, "Where?"
"It's a surprise," Olivia smiled and pulled on some pants.
"When?" Alex asked, getting up.
"I'm picking you up at seven," Olivia replied.
Alex walked over and wrapped her arms around Olivia's waist. "Okay." She looked at the clock over Olivia's shoulder, "I have to go."
Olivia turned around in Alex's arms and kissed her, "I love you."
"I love you too," Alex played with Olivia's hair a little, "Be careful."
"Always," Olivia smirked.
Alex pulled away and grabbed her keys off of the nightstand.
Olivia watched Alex walk out of her bedroom, trying to figure out how she got so lucky.
