Chapter 4

Alex didn't stir again for a few moments, but, she had to eat, she couldn't take the sounds of her stomach growling any longer. She groaned and sat up in, the bed sheet falling in to her lap. She smiled as she remembered moments from last night. The best night of her life. Her smile grew. Hearing her stomach rumble again, she got out of bed and walked naked over to the detectives closet. She wanted to just walk to Olivia naked, but then they'd both probably forget to eat and she at least, needed some energy. After some deliberating, Alex picked out a light blue man - shirt, which she presumed that Olivia wore for pyjamas. It was large and reached the tops of her thighs. The sleeves were to long but it solved it's purpose. She put it on and sighed as she heard Olivia singing in the background. Turning, Alex walked towards the kitchen.

Olivia who was pouring milk on to the second of two bowls of fruit loops, stopped singing as she heard light, soft footsteps coming from behind her. She turned in time to see a beautiful, oversize shirt clad ex ADA lean against the door frame of her kitchen and all she could do was swallow.

Maybe it's a little to early

To know if this is gonna work

All I know is you're sure looking

Good in my shirt

You look good in my shirt.

"You look…" Olivia mumbled once she'd remembered how to speak. Alex smirked and pushed herself of the frame and walked slowly towards the brunette. Olivia swallowed once more and nervously smiled back. Watching as the blond grew closer. Alex stopped just in front of her lover and leant towards her. Her lips were now barely a breath away from Olivia's.

"That good huh?" She spoke softly and giggled as she sidestepped a dumbstruck detective and reached instead for her bowl of cereal. Olivia shook her head and grinned.

"Tease!" She said and turned her head to see Alex smile and shake her head a little.

"Nope!" She replied denying the ridiculous accusation. "Just hungry." Olivia laughed and Alex was reminded of just how much she liked the sound. " I need to refuel. My energy levels have dropped considerably since yesterday." Olivia grinned and both sat down at the kitchen table and ate their breakfast in comfortable silence with an occasional glance and warm smile directed at each other.

As Olivia moved to the sink to wash the bowls, Alex made her way back to the bedroom as she heard her phone ring. Reaching for her phone, which she'd left in her jacket that she'd found hung behind Olivia's bedroom door, Liv must have done that earlier, she thought too herself, she answered;

"Cabot!"

"Alex! It's Liz!" Alex automatically straightened up. God, she's not here and it's not like I'm even working for her. Relax Alex!

" Liz hi. Er Good morning! What can I do for you?" Hoping her voice sounded more confident to Liz's ears than it did to her own.

"I'll tell you what you can do for me councillor, you can get your ass in to Branch's office for 12:00 this afternoon."

"Really?" Alex was shocked at how quick the big boss had got back to her about a possible job. But she wasn't going to jinx it so quickly she took a deep breath and brought her hopes down a little. Olivia chose that moment to walk towards her smiling that cocky half smile that made Alex shiver. A sly smile appeared on the blonds own face. "Okay! I'll be there. It's not like I've anything better to do." Olivia gasped and pretended to look hurt.

"Oh really?" She pouted as she leant in and pressed her lips softly against Alex's and rested her hands on the attorney's hips.

"Nothing that I can think of any way!" She continued, half to Olivia and half in to the phone. She smiled as Olivia's eyes blazed. Liz was still talking on the other end, but Olivia had caught her attention as she moved her hands up and down Alex's back under the big shirt. Giggling as the detective gently pushed her down on to the bed and leant over her. Alex quickly brought the phone back too her ear. "Liz!" She tried not to moan as Olivia drew her tongue from her ear, down along her jaw line to the soft skin of her neck. "Thanks for letting me know. I'll be there!" 12:00pm right?"

"Right!" Liz replied. "See you soon Alex!"

"Bye Liz!" Alex managed as Olivia sucked on her pulse point. She groaned and dropped the phone to the floor. She looked up at the beautiful woman above her and thought once more how lucky she was and how she wasn't going to lose this chance with her.

Now, I'm not saying that we solved over night

Everyway that we went wrong

Oh! But what I'm seein' I'd sure love seein'

Every morning from now on

She was going to make this work. She wasn't going to give up, they'd both been through too much not to make this thing work.

"How long have we got?" Olivia asked just before she captured Alex's lips in a bruising kiss. As the kiss ended, Alex glanced at the bed side clock.

She flipped Olivia on to her back. With a grin she pulled off the detectives vest top and latched on to a nipple. A groan was her reward.

"Long enough!" She whispered as she pinched the nipple between her teeth, then gently soothed it with her tongue. Olivia moaned and arched her back. "Or maybe not!" Alex had only ever had one addiction in her life, she was overdue for her next fix. She moved to the other breast. I don't think for ever would be long enough. She thought to her self.

Enjoyed it…? Want more? J
