Olivia sat doing paperwork on their most recent closed case when hands covered her eyes. She laughed and shook her head, "Lincoln how'd you get here?"

"Oh now my ego has just been shot." Peter removed his hands and Olivia turned to see him, "you just had to do that didn't you?"

"Of course." She smirked and Peter pulled out an envelope, "what is it?"

Peter looked at the envelope, "it was an anniversary present but since I'm obviously not important, I'll just take them back."

She tried to take the envelope as she stood and he backed up, "give it Bishop."

"Tell me one reason why?"

"I'll make it worth your while." She smirked and he gulped in surprise, that had not been expected.


They'd been taking their relationship slow, especially since Olivia had finished with her grief counseling only two months before. They had dates, curled up together on the couch but they hadn't gotten past kissing…they both could admit they weren't ready for sex and after six months, they were just starting on the occasional feel up.

"I don't doubt that but I need another reason."

"Give it or I'll shoot you."

Peter handed over the envelope and watched as she withdrew two tickets for a Bon Jovi Concert in New York. "You didn't?" She looked at him and smiled, he crossed his arms. "How much?"

"Doesn't matter, all you need to know is that you'll be right by the stage."

Olivia smiled and looked at the two tickets, happy he had got them for her. "Thank you."


He wrapped his arms around her and kissed her head, "you're welcome Sweetheart, I know you enjoy their music on occasion."

"I do and it is on our anniversary."

"Hmm, I made sure of it." He kissed her head again, "I'll leave you to your work, I have to take Walter to the store to get some piping…don't ask why."

Olivia turned and looked at him, "dinner tonight?"

"Yep, Astrid has Walter. See you later, I'll bring the wine." He kissed her and smiled, leaving her.


A/N: Next chapter they find out why Walternate did what he did...despite how crazy it sounds.
