And as usual, i don't one any of the characters expect for Blake.

Chapter 2

The next morning…

Elliot sat down on his desk, as he put sugar in his coffee. He had a lot of paperwork to do, but he couldn't concentrate. Why? Because Olivia wasn't here yet and she usually was. Where was she? He was getting worried. But his worries was useless because the doors opened and she walked in with a box of Krispey Kreme doughnuts.

"Hey guys. I brought doughnuts." she announced shaking the box.

John got up and took the box from her "You are my favorite detective."

"Hey man. Im right here" Fin said.

"I know" John said sitting back at his desk chuckling.

Olivia smiled as she took off her jacket and sat down. She looked exceptionally beautiful today. She was wearing black pants, a lavender shirt, and a black jacket. Her make-up was a little darker than usual, and her hair was in curls.

"Hey Liv. Did you sleep well?" Elliot greeted her accepting a glazed doughnut from Fin.

Olivia smiled, and ever so slightly, blushed "Yes I did. And you?"

Hmm. What was up with her today? "Great. Eli finally learned to sleep throughout the night."

"Thats good. How is he? And Kathy?" she asked glancing at her phone.

"There doing good they say hi." El said noticing how she grinned as she looked at her phone.

Thankfully she put it away "Lets get these reports done."

"Ok." Elliot agreed making a metal note to ask her later what was going on.

After awhile Elliot pushed back from his desk tired. They've been doing paperwork for two hours straight, and he needed a break. Olivia he noticed was still working; her lip in between her teeth like always when something bugged her.

"You need a break?" he asked getting up and stretching.

Olivia glanced up "You know what? I do. Where do you want to go?"

"You decide" Elliot said throwing her the keys.

"Really?" she said mock surprised.

"I'll let it slide for today." Elliot grinned You guys want to join us?" he asked the guys.

"Nah, Im good what about you Fin?" John declined.

"Me too. I need to finish this so you two go ahead." Fin agreed.

"Ok." Elliot said. Perfect timing.

Elliot and Olivia sat down from each other. They were at there usual diner, and they were waiting for there food.

"You look great today Liv. Anything happening tonight?" Elliot asked.

Olivia grinned "What? I cant go to work like this without anything happening?"

"You can, but you don't." Elliot smiled. He knew her inside and out.

"True." Liv agreed "To answer your question, I do have plans after work."

Elliot hitched in his breath "Thats great Liv. What are you planning?"

She stopped, hesitant. Why was she so nervous to tell him? He was her partner, best friend. She could tell him. "Remember Blake? From yesterday?"

Like he could forget "Yes."

"Well" she began nervous "He's taking me out for a drink tonight so we can catch up on things."

Elliot didn't say anything suddenly scared. He knew it. He was going to lose her. But wait, what if he was married? What if they were just going to catch up on things? Olivia wasn't so quick to date the guys usually waiting before she accepted anything. So he still had time. Hopefully.

He breathed more easily "Thats great Liv. Hope you have fun."

She sighed relived "Thanks." That wasn't bad she thought.

Elliot looked at her "So about the case…"

Later on around 6.

Olivia pushed her chair back, grabbed her purse, and left.

Elliot looked after her confused but he put his thoughts back on the case at hand.

Twenty minutes later she came back looking wow. She was wearing a black dress that was low cut, tight, and at the knees. She had on earrings, high heels, her lips were glossy ruby red, and her eyes sparkling with eyeshadow.

"Your going to turn heads tonight Liv." Fin said approvingly.

Olivia smiled "Thanks Fin. I'll see you guys tomorrow." She smiled at them, grabbed her jacket, waved and walked out. Elliot swallowed staring after her like every detective in the precinct.

Olivia sat down at the bar and ordered wine. She was nervous but excited to. She missed Blake, and hoped they would become friends again. Hell, she wanted to be more like before. Just on time Blake came in turning all heads from the girls and sat down next to her.

"Hey Liv." he said hugging her.

"Hey Blake." she said flustered; he smelled wonderful.

"You look absolutely gorgeous how are you?" Blake asked flagging down the bartender "Ill have a scotch easy on the ice."

"Im good, how are you? Hows your case going?" Olivia asked when the bartender left.

"Don't remind me. But lets not discuss work today. Tell me about yourself. What have you been doing for the past twenty years? Are you married? Have kids? How's your mom?" Blake asked nodding at the bartender as he put his drink down.

"As usual, you get right down to business" She said, amused. "Ok. Im not married, I have no kids, and my mom died ten years ago. All i've been doing is working really hard, and spending time with my coworkers. Pretty much it. What about you?"

"Really? Im sorry Olivia." he said covering her hand with his.

"Its ok, i'm better now. But tonight isn't for sadness tell me about you." She said squeezing his hand and pulling away. She didn't want to seem too eager or easy.

Blake took a sip of his drink "Im not married, no kids, and my dad died a year ago. Im ok, its just hard you know? I was close to him but Im ok now. Don't worry. I've been undercover for the past two years I just got out four months ago."

"Really? Did you catch the guy you were after?" Liv asked amazed.

"Yes well it wasn't one guy it was a group but yes I did. Took me forever, I even got shot." Blake told her noticing how beautiful she looked. She was so much more womanly and gorgeous than she was twenty years ago. But she had a more serious air to her, and the way she carried herself was different to. He loved it. She was his first love, and he was devastated when she left him. He never really got over it, only dated women from time to time but never settled down. And she didn't either which gave him a chance. But did he want to open tis door again? Set up his heart for heartbreak?

"Where did yo get shot?" Olivia asked shaking him from his thoughts.

"On my waist. You can barely see the scar thankfully." he answered aware of the looks she was getting from the guys at the bar.

She wasn't paying attention though, only to him. Her beautiful brown eyes staring into his giving me a feeling of longing. Of course he wanted to open this door again he couldn't deny it but did she? Maybe she just wanted to be friends? Well he was going to find out.

"So you seeing anyone?" He asked gripping his cup.

Olivia was surprised at the question "No, Im not are you?"

He sighed relived "No, Im not." They were quiet for a minute. Olivia was happy he wouldn't ask unless he wanted to make a move. However she wanted to say something first.

"Listen, Blake." she shifted, leaning closer "I am truly sorry for running away on our wedding day. I regret it to this day but I had to."

Blake didn't say anything. Why was she opening this up right now? He didn't want to think about it but he had to answer her. "You had your reasons Liv. It hurt, it still hurts to this day but its in the past. I forgive you, but can I ask you why?"

Olivia looked at him. He was looking at her, his eyes searching hers, blue against brown. Something passed between them that couldn't be put into words.

"You deserve a answer Blake. I was scared even though it was stupid. I know you loved me, I know you could have taken care of me. But I was scared of my mother, she was the reason I didn't marry you that and the fact one of the reasons I married you was to get away from her. Im truly sorry, you can hate me Blake I deserve it but I just want to apologize."

Blake was prepared to hear it but still it was a blow never less.

He swallowed "I don't hate you." No, he didn't but it still hurt.

Olivia frowned " I ruined everything, I'm sorry. I'll just leave." she got up but before she could leave, he grabbed her wrist.

He looked at her. There was a tension, almost sexual between them as he looked at her. He resisted the urge to pull her to him and kiss her "You didn't I promise. It just hurt to hear, but i'm fine. Please sit down."

Olivia looked at him searchingly for a few minutes, then sat down.

He released her wrist and took a long sip from his drink "So have you ever been undercover?"

Olivia nodded remembering Sealview "Yes I have."

"Did you catch the guy?" Blake asked.

"Yes I have thankfully" Olivia smiled "So are you in still contact from anyone from college?"

"No, only you. Hey remember that time you snuck in my room at two in the morning?" Blake said laughing.

"Oh ya! And the guard came and you made me hide under the bed?" olivia grinned reminisce.

Blake laughed and ordered another round of drinks. They spent the rest of the evening sharing stories, and remembering there college days.

Later, Blake drove her home and walked her to the door.

"It was great seeing you, Liv. I really miss doing this with you. And don't worry about earlier." Blake said watching Olivia unlock her door.

Olivia faced him "Thanks for understanding Blake. I had alot of fun. We have to do this again."

"We do" Blake said his eyes searching hers.

Olivia leaned her head to the side, her heart beating suddenly fast.

Blake took that as a ok, and leaned in slowly. Olivia closed her eyes as his lips touched hers. First slowly then more urgently. It was familiar, but it was more amazing than it was twenty years ago. He knew had to kiss her, where to tease. Olivia pulled him closer, as he pressed her against the door, his arms encircling her waist.

"Olivia?" someone exclaimed. Blake and Olivia broke apart. They were both breathing hard, and Olivia's eyes was sparkling as he looked into hers. He knew he was in love with her again, without a doubt.

"Elliot? What are you doing here?" Olivia said looking past Blake's shoulder. Blake removed his arms so she can walk over to him.

"I came to give you these files it's important." Elliot said, looking at Blake.

Olivia took them flustered "Thanks El. Um…"

Blake needed to get out of here fast. He was shaking from there kiss, and from his newfound love for her. "Liv. I'll call you. I had a great time, goodnight." Blake said smiling at her "Elliot Hello again."

"Hello" Elliot said watching him leave.

Olivia adjusted her dress "Um, do you need anything else?" She wanted to get inside and think, and to get out of these heels.

"No. I'm um, sorry that I interrupted. I'll see you tomorrow." he smiled at her, gave her the files, and left.

"Night "she called out and headed inside.

Elliot was mad, his worse fear came true. Now he lost her. How could this happen?

Hope you guys liked it ;) So, review! It keeps me going! :)
