Rating: PG-13

OLIVIA'S POV

"So…" Casey smiled, placing clear masking tap over the last brown cardboard box.

"So what?" I asked, my tone holding the same jubilance as Casey's.

"What is exactly going on between you and Elliot? I mean…"

"Casey I'm just moving in with him… temporarily…"

"Hun, this doesn't look very temporary to me…"

"Hey don't balme me, it's the Captain's orders after all…"

" 'Captain's orders' oh please… hun you're in looooooooooooooooooooooove!"

"CASEY!"

"Just stating the obvious…. aww…. Lil Olivia an Elliot are in loooooooooove!"

"… you really think he loves me?"

"God what are we, 13 years old? Please… gag me with a frickin spoon already!"

"Shut up!" I said, slapping her on the shoulder, "Come on we have to get these boxes over to Elliot's… we still have some work to do… let me remind you that we are on a time limit…"

"Ok lover girl… let's go…"

"We're here!" Casey called, as we entered the seemingly empty house.

"Elliot? Kristin?" we searched the downstairs floor, looking for the two of them, but they were nowhere to be found.

After awhile we finally heard, "Down here!" coming from the basement and found them discussing Natalie's position and how we could get the power back on our side.

"Hey…" I locked eyes with Elliot's noticing that he was just as upset about this whole odeal as I was. "We brought all the boxes that would fit in my car, but we still have about five or six that we couldn't fit…"

"Why don't Kris and I go get them for you… you and Casey just relax Liv…"

He stood up throwing Kristin her coat and slipping on his own. Before he ventured up the stairs, he touched me lightly on the shoulder and whispered in my ear, "We'll be back in a half an hour…"

I nodded slightly and watched as he followed Kristin up the stairs and out the front door. I didn't think anything was wrong until he started the enginge and pulled out of the driveway.

It has been proven that we all have some snse of foreboding in our brains that gives us sense of future events. I don't know what it was that scared me enough to make my entire body shake, but even when Casey came to my side and brought me out of my trance I didn't feel reassured.

Something was going to happen… and I knew that whatever it was, couldn't be a good thing.
