A/N: Now this is a little longer than the others, but since I haven't updated in a wile I felt it was only fair if I gave ya more. Anyways Enjoy...
Elliot and Olivia ended up at their destination first.
"Can you describe him?" Elliot inquired as he took out his note pad and pen to write down the necessary information.
"Um… he's average height, dark brown hair. He was wearing a pair of glasses with a hoodie and blue jeans." The woman began. "Here, I have a video tape if you want it."
"Thanks." Olivia replied turning to Elliot. "Let's get back to the precinct to watch this tape."
Fin and Munch was at the apartment where the phone call led them to. They knocked, but no answer. The door creaked open and there were writings all over the wall.
"Damn! Do you carry a camera around?" Fin asked Munch.
"Yeah, let's get some pictures." John said in disgust.
Back at the precinct Elliot and Olivia just arrived.
"what did you get? Cragen asked as he came out of his office.
"A video tape." Elliot replied.
"Of what?" Cragen questioned with suspicious.
"Don't know, but we are gonna find out once Fin and John gets here." Olivia said, placing the tape on her desk.
John and Fin came through the doors with anger clearly revealed on their faces.
"What's wrong?" Cragen curiously asked.
"Munch and Fin looked at each other seeing who should tell the news that they found on the apartment walls.
Fin sighed, "The call that we got led us to something else."
"The apartment that we went in had writing all over the walls…threats against Olivia." Munch interjected and looked at Olivia along with everyone else staring at her too. Munch then showed the squad the photos that they had taken. The writing on the walls said things like, 'SLUT,' and 'BITCH.'
"Oh, there's also this." Fin said as he pulled out a note and handed it to Olivia. "It was in the middle of the floor in the apartment." She took the note and read it out loud.
Dear Olivia,
So I guess you figured out who I am. And I noticed that you're getting pretty close to Detective Stabler and you know what I mean by close. Tell him I said hi and how are the kids and his ex-wife soon to be married again. I bet she didn't tell him that. I know that must have hit a nerve. I'm pretty sure you saw the messages on the walls. Pretty disgusting, I know, but I had no choice. I feel like you're cheating on me with Detective Stabler, oh well. So Detective Benson, do you like the dark? Well I do. This is going to be fun. See you soon.
Love,
Michael Jameson
Elliot saw the tears in Olivia's eyes, but she tried to hold them back as best as she could.
The rest of the day went by slowly with no leads. The video tape didn't help much because it only showed buying balloons, juice, chips and candy. He paid with cash instead of a credit card so they couldn't track his accounts.
It was 10 o'clock at night and John, Fin, Elliot and Olivia where the only ones left. Cragen had some errands to run and said he wouldn't be back for the rest of the night.
"I'm tired so I'm gonna head home." Fin said as he stood up and grabbed his jacket.
"Yeah me too." John added.
"Okay, well we'll see you tomorrow." Olivia responded.
"Yup, bye." Both John and Fin answered back as they left the precinct side by side.
"You should call Kathy." Olivia said out of concerned. She had noticed early that he was, but most of all angry since the comment that she was getting married again. Not only that, but he had to hear it from a letter instead of her instead and she moved on so quickly. They had only been divorced for 3 months and she was already getting married, so that must mean that she had to be cheating on him. I mean come on, you don't fall I love after 3 moths it takes time. But then again, once Elliot laid eyes on Olivia everything change. He felt like he was cheating on his wife just by looking at her. Olivia is a gorgeous, passionate, modest and smart woman.
"No, I'm okay." Elliot responded not even bothering to look up from his desk.
"Elliot? You're not okay; I can read you like a book. And if I'm reading you right, I can tell that you're hurt."
"I know…I'll call her tomorrow." Elliot sighed. Olivia gave him a smile and he cracked a half smile back at her.
Then all of a sudden, everything went dark.
"What just happened?" Olivia inquired curiously.
"Damn! The power just went out, which means were stuck until the power is back on." Elliot responded angrily.
"It looks like we're gonna be here for a couple of days. A bad storm is coming this way." Olivia said as she pointed out the window.
"So what now?" Elliot questioned.
"I don't know."
A couple hours went by and Olivia was sitting at her desk while Elliot was getting some things. Elliot had come back with 2 flashlights, candles, a couple of bags of chips and bottles of water.
"Where'd you get the stuff?" Olivia inquired while helping Elliot place the things on their desks.
"The storage room."
"We have a storage room?" Olivia queried.
"Apparently." Elliot replied.
A couple more hours had passed and silence surrounded the room. Olivia was starring out the window and Elliot was sitting at his desk. Then Elliot got out of his chair to go stand by Olivia. She was in her on little world and didn't even notice that Elliot was standing right next to her. Elliot saw the tear that slipped down from her eye and that's when he decided to speak.
"Liv…" Elliot said in a worried tone. "What's wrong?"
She looked up at him and into his deep blue ocean eyes filled with concern. He starred into he deep chocolate eyes searching for an answer. Her eyes also seemed to shine because of her tears that were in her eyes ready to fall.
"Liv… talk to me." Elliot pleaded as he places a reassuring hand on her shoulder. "Please."
"Nothing." Olivia replied as she went to go sit down on the couch. "Just thinking to myself."
"About?" Elliot asked
"Everything. My life. Us. Michael."
"Stop worrying so much about Michael. He's not going to hurt you."
"How do you know that?" Olivia questioned with soft sobs.
"Olivia…" Elliot said in a low soft tone. "Don't let him get inside your head."
"Too late. I can't help but think something is going to go wrong." Olivia said as Elliot came by her and knelt by her side. "What if something happens to me or YOU? It's not like you can promise me everything is going to be okay."
Elliot grabbed Olivia and pulled her into an embrace. "You're right, I can't promise you that, but I can promise you that I will be here for you no matter what happens." Elliot explained and said soft calming words into her ear while praying that everything will be okay. "Come on, let's go get some sleep. It's already 2 in the morning."
"Okay." Olivia responded as both of them got up and headed for the crib up stairs.
"Thanks." Olivia said while laying in bed.
"For what?" Elliot asked.
"Keeping me sane." Olivia replied with a smirk.
"Anytime." Elliot said as well with a smirk. He started to walk away to the other bed, but then there was a slight tug on his shirt.
"Hold me." Olivia said just above a whisper. Elliot stared into her eyes and never saw her more vulnerable in his life, so he decided to stay. He took off his shoes and socks and then his jacket, which left him in a wife beater that hugged his body. He climbed into her bed next to her and held her tight. She laid her head on his chest and drifted off to sleep.
During the middle of the nigh Olivia woke up. Still lying on Elliot's chest brought a smile to her face.
"I love you Elliot Stabler." She whispered and dozed off right back to sleep. Yet, did she know Elliot had heard what she said and he smiled about it. The woman the he loved dearest loved him back, but only if he had the guts to tell her how he felt.
It was morning and Elliot had woke up without Olivia in his arms. He went down stairs to see her staring out the window.
"Hey." Elliot said as he reached the bottom step of the stairs.
Olivia looked up to see Elliot and said "Hey," and then turned right back to the window. "I like watching the sunrise. It's so calming and peaceful to me. I watch it every morning when I wake up and feel lonely." Olivia explained.
"But you're no alone." Elliot replied as he walked over to Olivia and wrapped his arms around her waist from he back. "You have me."
"I know."
"Liv?" Elliot questioned.
"Yeah?" Olivia responded.
"Did you mean what you said…last night?" Elliot could feel Olivia tense up and her heart rate increase.
She didn't want to say yes because what if he didn't feel the same, but if she said no she would be lying to herself and Elliot. "About?" Olivia asked nervously acting as if she didn't know what he was talking about, but she knew exactly what he was talking about.
Elliot turned Olivia around so that she was facing him. He then grabbed her hands and held them tight. "Liv…you said you loved me."
"So you were up." Olivia said more as a statement then question.
"Did you mean it? Do you really love me?" Elliot queried in a soft tone.
Olivia took a deep breath and then spoke, "Yeah." She replied as she looked down on the floor.
Elliot lifted her chin with his thumb and stared into her eyes. They were watery and filled with tears. She was scared, scared of him and that's when Elliot realized it. "Liv…I won't hurt you." Elliot leaned down and brushed his lips against Olivia's. His tongue rubbed against her lips begging for entrance and she gladly granted him access. They played a slow game of tonsil Hockey for a few minutes until air was a problem. "I love you too Olivia Benson." Elliot said as he embraced Olivia in a hug and he could feel a smile creep up on her face.
"Aww…isn't that sweet." A voice said and Elliot and Olivia separated to see who it was.
"How did you get in here?" Elliot inquires with lot of anger.
"Detective Stabler, you didn't think the lights and you being trapped ids because of the storm o you? Well let me answer that for you, um no. That was my doing." Michael replied with a smirk.
"What do you want?" Olivia questioned.
"Why detective Benson, you know that that question is rhetorical, but of course you already know that I want you. And since I can't have you no one can." Michael replied as he pulled out a gun and aimed it at Olivia.
"Elliot saw the gun and he panicked. He ran towards Olivia as shots rang through the air. Both Elliot and Olivia fell to the ground.
Michael just laughed as he saw blood on the floor with the detective. "I'll be back for you later." Michael simply said and left.
A/N: I hope you liked this chapter. Now all I have to do is find out who got shot and well they survive. Let's hope Elliot got there in time to save Olivia fom the bullet.
