The next chapter is the dinner, I promise. You've waited long enough for the event.
Part 8
As soon as Olivia entered her apartment, she got anxious. There were still one and a half hour 'til dinner and she had no clue, what she should wear. Was it casual? Formal? She threw her hands over her head and sighed. First things first. Shower. She needed a hot shower. Or better a cold?Olivia lost her clothes on her way to the bathroom and turned the shower on. Stepping under the spray, she closed her eyes. I'm having dinner with the most beautiful woman of the world and I don't have a fucking clue, how to impress her. Why is it so hard to figure out? We know each other and we are friends for a long time. But it is different now, we're going to change everything. And I do want to be convincing. I can't risk to lose her friendship, if this new thing backfires. Losing her is no option. I have to make sure, she feels the same way, before anything could happen. But would it be so easy? I can't even think straight, when Alex is close to me. If she sits the whole evening beside me, how am I supposed to form a coherent sentence. Or even to have a simple conversation. But she would definitely try to win Alex over, if she wasn't already convinced, that Olivia was the right partner for her.
With that conclusion Olivia grabbed the washcloth and soaped her toned body. She felt her tense muscles relax and took a moment longer than necessary.
Half an hour later she searched her closet. As she considered some of the offers. She decided she would dress up for Alex. So finally after another 30 minutes Olivia put on a light make up and shot a last look at the mirror. The dark red blouse with the first three buttons open showed of a hint of cleavage. She chose a black pant suit, which pants complimented her well defined thighs and ass. The jacket remained open and to draw attention to the nice view, she put on a silver necklace with a small heart-shaped pendant. Her olive skin was highlighted by the silk of the blouse and she was content with her appearance.
Across town a tall blonde ADA made her way home and considered what she could wear for dinner. She opened the apartment door and put her briefcase on the kitchen counter. After a minute of looking through her mail she threw it next to the briefcase and headed for her shower.
Was Olivia as nervous as I am? And what will happen tonight? We're not alone, so discussing feelings was no option. Will she be able to relax with Danny and Lena there? Or will she play the tough and cool detective? Alex was at loss. She did not know what to expect. Hopefully the three would get along and Danny would behave. That was Alex's biggest worry. Her friend relished teasing her far too much. Alex was aware that Olivia did the same as often as she could. But how would Olivia take the deep friendship. Alex shook her head to clear her mind off the disturbing thoughts and concentrate on the task at hand. Dressing for dinner, for Olivia.
It didn't take her long to decide on a dress that emphasized her lean figure. The dress was of a light blue silk and clung to her body at all the right places and ended just below her knees. Standing in front of her bedroom mirror, Alex nodded pleased. Yeah, that will do it. I can't imagine Olivia will be able to resist me in that dress. An evil smile graced her full lips. She will eat out of my hand tonight, I'm certain. Considering that, Alex wasn't so sure any more that it had been a good idea to invite Danny and Lena. But what was she thinking. It was a little bold to think, they would end in bed together tonight. I'm not even sure I'm ready for a kiss. But, well, it would probably be heaven to feel Olivia's soft lips brushing against my own. She sighed. Cabot, you're going ahead of yourself, stop it. Immediately. She chided herself.
As she looked at the alarm clock on the left nightstand, she tapped impatiently with her right foot. How am I supposed to survive another hour. It seems time stands still, if I really want something. Good, now what?
Alex went to the kitchen and took a whine bottle out of the fridge. She opened that yesterday. It should do the trick to soothe her nerves. With a glass in hand she made her way back to the living room, settled on the armchair next to the couch and closed her eyes. Her mind instantly drifted to Olivia. I really am curious what Olivia chooses to wear. I didn't even gave her a hint. But as far as I am concerned, she could show up in her birthday suit and I would love it. Well, that would be a sight. No, not good. I don't share. And I really shouldn't think about a naked Olivia. Now, who can blame me, that woman is beautiful and attractive and adorable and sometimes even cute. Mostly, when she doesn't know, how to react to something. An amorous smile lit up her face. I'm lucky to have her. And there will be no one and nothing, that can take her away from me. I'll be at her side as long as she wants me. Now she only needed to convince Olivia, that she was 'Ms. Right'.
A/N 2: Good, now I just want to say, I'm grateful that so much of you read this story. As I already stated, that was just a small interlude. A look behind the scenes, so to speak. The dinner is next. And it will be uploaded tomorrow. Thanks to all of you.
