Chapter 4: Unspoken Words
Elliot awoke to
the sound of his cell phone ringing. Groaning he asked the phone.
"Stabler... ok... be there in ten" Elliiot said to Cragen.
His voice vibrated through Olivia who was slowly coming awake.
"Morning" Elliot said with a smile as he got off the bed
and found his discarded clothes.
"where are you going?"
she asked huskily as he wrapped him self in her robe and walked to
the bathroom. "Stabler I've seen you naked already" Olivia
said with a laugh. Elliot smiled down at her, his breath smelled of
her mouth wash.
Mint.
"You are a tease you know lady."
Elliot said dropping a quick kiss to her lips.
"Am I?"
she asked. sending him a knowing wink.
"Benson I have work."
Elliot groaned taking her lips fully and letting her go in the next
instant.
"Can you spend some time with a girl after work?"
she asked running her tongue over her lips.
"For you
anything." he said at the door.
The drive was lonely he missed Olivia already, yet it bugged him, she didn't share his sentiments. A sigh escaped his lips 'she doesn't love me' he thought as he drove into the parking lot. Parking the car he quickly composed himself. Though, he couldn't quite move the dull ache in his heart.
Olivia was on cloud nine to her the world was perfect
till she received a message from her brother Simon.
"Hey
Sis, Lucy is going in tomorrow what time should I pick you up?"
"Crap" she exclaimed in her apartment. She had
forgotten that she had promise her younger brother she would be there
when her niece was born. Running to the phone Olivia quickly called
the airline to book a flight to Florida. Hurrying she threw some
clothes into a small pulley. Picking up she replied.
"My
flight lands 8:00 pm. Love you.
-Liv" Throwing the phone
on the bed she headed to the bathroom for a shower.
Elliot
stood at the door knocking and when no answer was forth coming he
used the key to enter while taking care not to damage the rose.
"Liv?" Elliot called from the living room, smiling as he
heard her singing and the running of the shower. Walking boldly into
her room he sat in her room and noticed her bag was packed. A frown
creased his brow but soon faded as she stood in the doorway wrapped
in a towel.
Olivia let out a frightened gasp, but soon relaxed
when she saw Elliot lying on her bed with a rose in his mouth. A
smile formed at the corners of her mouth as Elliot greeted her with a
kiss. "Hmmm" Olivia responded to the kiss. Pulling back she
reached for the hair dyer and started to blow her hair.
"El,
what's with your phone?" Olivia asked. Pulling her hair into a
ponytail.
"Nothing, the battery is dead though" he
joked
"Smart-ass. Anyway I'm going away for a few days. Lucy
is about to pop"
"Oh" was all he said a little
disappointed he wasn't going to spend the evening with her.
Getting
up she waked to the bathroom to apply make-up when her phone chime.
Picking up the phone Elliot was taking it towards her when an open
message caught his attention.
"My flight lands at 8:00.
Love you -Liv" Elliot froze and when the new message
popped up he couldn't help but read it.
"I
can't wait to see you, I have missed you: Sender SAM.
