Chapter 2
Forever seemed to pass as the two woman wrapped themselves up in each other. Olivia pulled back first and captured Alex's blue eyes. God how she'd missed drowning in them. Tears were forming and slowly one started to fall down Alex's cheek. Softly, Olivia wiped the tear away with her thumb and smiled at her friend. She sighed contentedly and whispered firmly to the blond.
"Trust me Alex, there's nothing to forgive." They hugged again and rested their foreheads together. Neither wanting to break the moment. "Have dinner with me?" Olivia asked. Alex sighed. "Please?!" Olivia nearly begged.
"Yes. Ok!" Alex's replied and smiled as the older detective let out a long sigh. "We have a lot of catching up to do."
"I'll say!" Olivia smiled as she took the young attorneys hand and led her back into the building.
"So where do you want to eat?" Alex asked as they headed out on to the street.
"How about my place. I don't fancy sharing catch up time with a bunch of nosy parkers in a restaurant." Olivia replied and Alex smiled.
"On one condition detective." She replied. Olivia glanced to the side and arched an eyebrow. They stopped at the curb and Alex hailed a cab her smile growing as Olivia folded her arms.
"What condition councillor?"
"You let me cook!" Alex tried not to laugh at the look of horror on her friends face. The first time she'd cooked for Olivia was on they're six month anniversary and it hadn't gone so well. Ha! Now a small giggle did escape. Not only did Alex nearly burn her own apartment down, she hadn't cooked the meat properly and the two of them hadn't gotten out of bed for two days. Alex looked at the detective. " What are you afraid of Liv?!" She smiled evilly. The detective swallowed.
"My life!" She mumbled. Alex elbowed her and pouted. Olivia couldn't help the smile that graced her features. Alex was adorable when she pouted. "Fine. I'll let you cook." Olivia agreed. "After all I do get good health insurance with the department." She added, grinning and dodging a playful slap from Alex.
"You'll pay for that detective." Alex mumbled. Olivia chuckled. "Seriously though, I've improved my culinary skills."
"Really?!" Olivia did not sound at all convinced. Alex punched her arm. "Ouch!" the detective rubbed the sore spot. Alex smiled.
"Yes. Being on your own, and becoming tired of takeouts makes you want to be able to cook for yourself." Olivia watched her. She looked sad for a moment. If there was one thing that Olivia knew she wanted, it was to be the reason Alex would never feel sad again. She caught the gorgeous women's eyes just as a taxi pulled up.
"Okay then." She decided. "I'll risk it." She smirked as a small smile returned to the blonds face. Alex shoved her and opened the door to the cab.
"Where two ladies?" The cabbie shouted in to the rear of the car. Olivia gave the man her address and they were on there way. Butterflies were having a party.
Sorry this part was shorter. Trying to keep you girls interested. Part three coming soon.
