Chapter 5

Olivia smiled for a minute then quickly turned around and headed to her car, where her driver was waiting. She got home and found Noreen asleep on the couch; she awoke her and told her she could leave. After the babysitter left. She went to check on her son, who was fast asleep and snoring in his bed. She noticed that he looked just like his father. She kissed him on the forehead then went to bed. Excited and nervous about lunch with Elliot, she wondered what they would talk about. She pushed the thought out of her mind when she heard someone knocking on her door. She got up noticing it was 3 in the morning, she grabber her Pistol out of the drawer and walked to the front door. Even though she lived in a nice neighborhood without many problems, she still wanted to feel safe. She looked through the peephole and saw Terry, She sighed. Then opened the door.

"What are you doing here?" She asked going back upstairs into her room putting the gun away and coming back down into the living room to find him sitting on the couch.

"So, what are you doing here?" She asked again sitting next to him.

"No reason, just wanted to see you. So I heard you were talking to Stabler outside after I told you not to." He said obviously upset.

"Look, it's not even that bad. We were saying goodbye." She said not fazed by him being upset. It wasn't new; he would be upset if she even smiled at another man.

"Well, I just want you to know, that I don't approve of you talking to him." He said trying to make is point known.

She rolled her eyes. "I already know you don't approve of me talking to ANY man." She said getting up; she was tired of talking to him.

"Where are you going?" He asked watching her.

"I'm going to bed. You can see yourself out." She said as she began walking away.

He grabbed her arm and pulled her down on top of him. "Are you mad at me?" He asked kissing her.

She pushed herself up. "No shit Sherlock. Look I am done with this; I think it would be best if we took a break." She said, knowing she wanted this for a very long time.

He looked at her for a second. "Ok, we can take a break. But don't get mad when you see me with another woman." He said smiling.

"Don't worry I wont, just don't lose your mind when you see me with another man." She said smiling back at him.

He stood up, "You better not go be with some other man." He said upset.

"Or else what!?" She said loudly, challenging his authority, she knew he liked to be in control but she wasn't going to let him win this one.

He tightened his jaw. "Look, its late, we are both tired, so let's just sleep on it then decide if we really want to take a break." He said trying to calm the situation.

She shook her head. "No, I am serious. I have been thinking about this for a while now. I really want to take a break." She said trying to get it threw his head.

He shakes his head slowly. "No, look I am telling you, you are not thinking straight. Did you have some alcohol tonight?" He asked.

She looked at him now pissed. "You know damn well I don't drink. Now I am telling you, I want a break, you keep this up and I will want to break up." She said crossing her arms.

He threw his hands up in surrender. "Ok ok sorry, fine we can take a break, but I want James to be with me during our break." He said, knowing she wouldn't approve.

"No, he is my son, so we are taking a break AND I am keeping my son." She said then walking over to the door.

"Fine then, but I am telling you, don't get pissed if I get another girl and not want to be with you." He said, thinking that he was getting to her.

She laughed a little. "Fine then, its over, I don't even want to be with you now. So you can leave. Buh Bye." She said to him, opening to door.

His mouth fell open. "Come on baby-"

"I am not your baby, now you can leave!" She said.

He looked at her. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean it. Please just talk to me." He said pleading with her.

She looked at him for a minute. "What do you have to say?" She wanted to get this over with.

"Well, I want to work things out, I know I shouldn't try to make you do things you don't want, but I just want to keep you safe. I'm sorry just don't leave me." He said grabbing her hand.

She sighed and looked at him. He looked so pathetic right now. "I'm sorry, but I still want a break for a while. Can you give me that? I need some space." She said not giving in to him.

He looked down. "Ok, I can give you that. I'm sorry I was acting like an ass." He said looking up at her.

She smiled slightly. "Thank you. I will talk to you later." She said.

He reached his arms out for a hug, which she accepted and gave him a warm hug. "I'm going to miss you." He said to her.

She started laughing then pushed him lightly. "Shut up, I will see you later." She said.

He laughed at her, and then nodded his head. "Ok, I will see you later." He said then walked out.

She closed the door behind him then finally went to bed.
