Chapter two
She just went to her room as she sat on her comfortable bed waiting for him to come to her expecting answers when he knew the answer already. She didn't know how she was going to break it to him but she didn't want him finding out like this, hell if he wasn't already married he'd probably ask her to marry him.
"Olivia?" he asked as he walked around the apartment a bit before finding her in her bedroom.
Olivia just waited for the dreaded questioning to come but after a few second of waiting he said nothing to her and then she wondered if it truly was in the bathroom or somewhere else around the apartment.
"What are you doing in here?" he asked to her as she had her eyes closed for a few second when he had came in.
"Ah never mind sorry," she said as she stood and went out to the lounge again and sat down on the couch as he stood and she herself also stood again to get a lemon, of all things to crave it had to be lemons.
Elliot just squinted at her for a second as she popped a cut up piece of lemon into her mouth "Are you okay Liv?" he asked to her as she didn't seem to notice the expected sour taste of a lemon.
"Yeah I'm fine why?" she asked him as she popped another lemon slice into her mouth and she through the other one out.
He walked over to her fridge as he wanted a beer and knew that he would not get as smashed as he had been the other time he had drunken alcohol, he offered her one as she turned it down and he just opened it up and begun to drink "I du know Liv, you look great it's just…" he trailed off as he drunk from the bottle.
Olivia told herself it was probably the pregnancy the made her look great but also made her act strange in the eyes of her partner. She just had to find the pregnancy test so she could stop worrying and tell him in her own time.
After a further five minutes Olivia checked her watch as she realized the time and knew she had to call it quits now because it was getting pretty later already and they had an early morning ahead of them "Ah it's getting pretty late," she stated to him as he finished his beer and the she deduced that he had no intention of going home "Do you want to stay in the guest bedroom?" she asked Elliot as he put down his finished beer and knew he could not take up her offer.
"Nah I'll be fine," he said to her as he put the bottle in the bin and walked to the door.
"You can't get back in the precinct after it's shut, El just stay here for the night we all know you won't go home," she said to him as he tried to leave, she didn't particularly feel fine about him staying and finding her pregnancy test but she sure as hell was not going to let him sleep in his cold car.
Olivia brushed her teeth in the bathroom after he had decided to stay; she also searched around for the pregnancy test as she brushed her teeth knowing she wouldn't get another chance whilst he was around. She had searched everywhere but couldn't find it in the bathroom and then wondered where it could be if not there.
"Night," she said to him as she walked to her room and hoped she could get some sleep after her search had turned up nothing, but luckily enough she fell to sleep quickly.
In the dark of night Elliot creeps through the apartment not to wake Olivia as he needed to use the bathroom after the beer and opens the door quietly, stepping into the bathroom and relieves himself, a few minutes later stepping out as he quietly closes the door and notices something in the bin outside of the bathroom. He picks the pregnancy test out of the now empty garbage bag and has seen enough of them in his life time to know this one was saying someone was pregnant.
His stomach feels like it is in notes, he doesn't know how to respond as he drops it back into the bin.
Suddenly Olivia comes rushing out of her bed room as it looks like she is going to be sick and barges into the bathroom quickly before he hears a throwing up sound inside.
This just confirms more for Elliot that his partner is pregnant; he is not dim enough to ask if it is his or not because he already knows she would tell him it was. How was he supposed to respond to this, was she even going to tell him or just lie through her teeth to him he thought angrily. She would have told him he thought to himself as he tried to calm down, she probably just didn't know how after he had accused her of seduction.
He gave her some time to clean up before he entered the bathroom to talk to her as she looked up into his icy eyes "When were you going to tell me?" he asked to her as he could not seem to sound any easier on her.
"I du know… maybe never," she told him truthfully as she could see this pained him to hear.
With that said Elliot left the bathroom as Olivia then heard the distinct noise of the front door of her apartment being slammed shut making her want to puck all over again if she had any stomach contents left.
