I'd Do Anything
(Chapter Ten: Saving The Best For Last)
Two weeks later at work Olivia sat at her desk minding her own business when she looked up to see Elliot staring at her. He had been doing this all morning and she had completely ignored it and gone on about her day. But now it was really starting to agitate her.
"What?" She snapped looking up at him as he smiled.
"Nothing," Elliot said shaking his head with a devilish grin.
"Elliot, if it were nothing you wouldn't have been staring at me all morning. What is going on?"
"No….I just can't shake it."
She paused for a moment wrinkling her brow in confusion.
"Shake what?"
"The sight of you in that dress."
She looked up at him with a guilty grin as she shook her head.
"Well, try to focus. We are at work and you should try to get at least one page of paperwork completed today."
Elliot smiled at her again and she grinned and laughed.
"Elliot, stop it."
"I didn't do anything!"
"That," she pointed her finger at him, "that right there! Stop giving me that look!"
But it was too late, he had her laughing and she couldn't stop. Munch and Fin stood across the room watching them as they both broke into laughter each time their eyes met. Munch looked back at Fin and they both shook their heads.
"I ain't never heard Elliot tell a joke that funny," Fin said shaking his head.
"I wonder what is up with those two," John Munch thought out loud.
"Probably don't want to know," Fin replied as they headed out the squad room door.
Olivia finally stopped laughing and looked up at Elliot.
"Was it that bad?"
"It wasn't bad at all." He exhaled heavily. "It was incredible. You were incredible. I just can't get that night off my mind. The dress, the way you just sort of pushed me around and took what you wanted. Really hot."
"Elliot," she warned pointing her finger at him.
"Yeah, I know." He rubbed his hands over his face. "We're at work."
"We have to separate this. We can't think about that while we are here supposed to be doing this," she picked up a stack of papers in her hand and tapped them gently on the desk to align them as she placed them neatly back inside the file.
Elliot closed his eyes for a few seconds, but she was there as well. Her face, the smell of her soft, warm skin. The way she touched him and kissed him and moaned against his ear. The way she felt inside so soft and warm, like they were made to fit together. And the look in her eyes all wild and sexy. The look on her face as he brought her so close and then pulled back not allowing her to slip over the edge until he was ready to let her. The way she stared into his eyes and silently begged for him to set her free. And the way she felt in his arms after she had collapsed against his chest exhausted from making love to him and giving him everything she had until she had nothing left to give. They were amazing lovers. He had never been with anyone quite like her.
He took a deep breath and looked back up at her filling out a paper on the top of a large stack. She was so beautiful and she didn't even know it. Olivia felt him watching her and shifted her eyes up to meet his. She smiled again, this time both of them serious. She closed the file she was working on as she stood up and put her jacket on.
"Where are you off to?" Elliot asked looking at the time.
"I told you this morning. I have another appointment at the clinic," she said softly. "I have to have to get another prescription for the shots."
"Oh," Elliot said nodding his head.
"Nothing, big. They just want to do the usual blood work and a quick examine to make sure there are no abnormalities because I have been on them so long, before they will give me more."
"You want me to go with you?"
"Elliot, it is a gynecological visit. Doesn't really even have anything to do with trying to get pregnant. Kinda like getting a physical or a check up. Thanks, though."
"Alright. Hey, can I see you later?"
Olivia smiled at him. It almost sounded like he was asking her out. "We'll see," she said in a flirty voice as she spun around and walked out the door.
Olivia sat on the edge of the examine table sporting her paper gown awaiting the doctor's arrival. The nurse had already taken blood and urine samples and sent them off to the lab for testing. Now she just had to get a pelvic examine, a pap smear and her prescription and she would be on her way.
"Olivia," The doctor called to her as he entered the room, "so nice to see you again."
"Thanks," she said with a smile.
"I'll have you out of here in no time."
She smiled again and nodded her head. She slid back on the table and put her feet up into the stirrups as she laid her head on the pillow. Thirty minutes later Olivia was on her way out the door with some paper work and her prescription.
Olivia hurried back across town to get ready to for her next meeting with Elliot. He was supposed to come over after work and they were going out to eat before returning to her place for yet another rendezvous.
She looked down at her watch. She had a little time, Elliot didn't even get off work for another hour. This time, she was planning a surprise. She was going to cook a nice meal for him and set the mood with romantic candle light and soft music.
She opened the door to the apartment and rushed to put the groceries away. Then headed down the hall to the shower. Tonight she was wearing a different little black dress. One Elliot hadn't seen her in yet. She laid her clothes out on the bed then hurried down the hall to get dinner started.
Everything was ready. The table setting was beautiful and the wine chilled. Dinner smelled amazing and she returned to her bedroom to change into her evening wear.
Elliot arrived twenty minutes later and they had a wonderful romantic candle lit dinner. They had been doing a lot of this romantic stuff lately and it seemed to really help them both to relax and get over being nervous around each other. They smiled and talked and flirted through dinner both knowing what was in store for them tonight.
Olivia had a smile she could not hide as she cleared the table and placed their dishes in the sink. Elliot walked up behind her and smoothed his hands over her shoulders as he leaned in to kiss her neck. He turned her slowly around and kissed her passionately.
"Elliot," she whispered.
"Yeah," he said with a smile.
"I thought we could take it slow tonight. Spend some time together first."
Elliot looked into her eyes. "Okay," he said softly.
He laced his fingers in hers and lead her to the couch to sit together. Elliot picked up the remote control to the DVD player and hit play not caring what came over the television screen. He was too busy staring at her to care what was on. He sat on the couch and pulled her in to his arms. She leaned back and rested her head against his chest and closed her eyes. Elliot stared at the television screen at the movie playing, his heart pounding, waiting for her to tell him she was ready.
Half way through the movie Olivia looked down at his hand holding hers, their fingers were laced tightly together and his other arm held her tight against his chest. The way he held her made her feel so good. Safe inside his strong arms, it was hard not to have feelings for him.
"You okay?" He asked rubbing his nose against her cheek and kissing it softly. "You are so quiet tonight."
"I'm good," she said with a smile. "I guess I just have a lot on my mind."
Elliot kissed her forehead softly.
"Do you want to talk about it?" He asked looking into her eyes.
"Can you keep a secret?" She asked staring up at him as she reached for his tie.
Elliot figured this was some kind of sexy ploy to lead them into sex, so he went for it.
"Yes, I can."
She twisted his tie in her hand and pulled him to her lips. But instead of kissing him she moved her mouth to the side of his face. Elliot could feel her warm breath against his ear and it tickled a little as she spoke softly.
"I'm pregnant," she whispered, then looked back down at their hands still holding tight.
Elliot sat quiet for a second thinking about what she had just said.
"Are you sure?"
He looked across her face and watched her cheek bones rise as she smiled and a tear rolled from her cheek.
Olivia took a deep breath and turned to look at him. "I'm sure."
Elliot exhaled and looked into her eyes. "Yeah?" he asked nodding his head.
"Yeah," she said with a soft smile.
Elliot laughed and smiled the biggest smile she had ever seen cross his face. He placed his hand on the side of her face and kissed her passionately. "We're going to have a baby. We're going to have a baby!"
Olivia laughed. "Yes, we are."
Elliot placed his forehead against hers and stared into her eyes and kissed her again. "You took a test?"
"No. I had no idea. I went for this check up this afternoon and they did the blood work. The nurse mentioned something about my hormone levels being high, but I assumed it was from the shots. But when after the doctor completed the examine, he came back in to the room and told me I was going to have a baby."
"So this worked? Man that was fast. We have only been doing this for a few weeks."
"I am five weeks, Elliot. She looked at him."
"Five weeks?"
"Yes."
"But it has not been five weeks since we started doing this."
She watched his face as he contemplated their situation. Then he raised his eyes to look at her. "Martha's Vineyard?"
Olivia smiled and nodded her head. "That first night. After Brian's wedding."
"We weren't even trying."
She smiled at him. "Apparently, we didn't have to."
They sat quiet for a few more minutes thinking about everything that had gone on the last few weeks. Elliot pulled her back into his arms and kissed her as he moved his hands over the flat void that would soon rise with their developing child. Olivia smiled at him from over her shoulder. He closed his arms tight around her hugging her.
Olivia leaned in and placed the bridge of her nose against his cheek. "It's a little ironic. We spent over thirty seven thousand dollars trying desperately to get this doctor to help us have a baby. Then we ended up getting pregnant on our own without even trying, the very first time we made love."
"It's amazing."
She smiled. Elliot sat up as she faced him and he hugged her. He smoothed his hand over her jaw and began to kiss her tenderly. Before long he had picked her up and carried her to her bedroom and laid her gently across the bed.
He kissed slowly down her body across her dress as he slowly undressed her, his eyes never leaving hers. Olivia unbuttoned his shirt and his black slacks as he kicked them to the floor. So she was down to nothing but the thin slip she wore under the dress and her lace thong and Elliot moved his hands slowly under the slip pulling off her sexy underwear and tossed them into the floor beside his clothes. He leaned in over her and kissed her gently as he pulled his boxers off and slid gently inside her.
Olivia moaned a soft moan and stared into his eyes as they began to make love. This time much slower and more passionate that ever before. She placed her hand against his chest and pushed him gently back ad she raised up off the bed and pulled the slip over her head and dropped it into the floor as well.
Elliot looked down at her naked body under his. This was the first time they had ever been completely naked together. He leaned in and kissed her again as they continued to explore each other's bodies in the dark as he kissed every inch of her body. The blue of the moonlight spilled in through the blinds and seemed to touch everything around them. They made love for over an hour, slowly and gently, before they had exhausted all of their energy and collapsed together in bed.
Elliot kissed her lips and held her tight against his chest as he covered them in a sheet. He laced his fingers in hers and held her hand against his chest so she could feel his heart pounding inside.
Olivia turned her pretty brown eyes to look into his. Then laid back down and settled against his chest.
"Elliot?"
"Yes, Liv."
He felt her smile against his chest.
"What are we doing here? I'm already pregnant." She turned her eyes to look up at his.
Elliot cupped his hand against her cheek and stared into her eyes. "Celebrating," he said softly.
Olivia smiled and exhaled softly. "None of this seems real."
"I know. It is almost like a dream. I really wonderful dream."
Olivia kissed his chest softly and he tightened his arms around her once more as she brought her head to rest against his chest."
"Olivia, I don't want to wake up," he whispered softly against her ear.
"Neither do I," she replied as he kissed the top of her forehead and combed his fingers through her hair.
He held her there with him through the entire night. And that night was the best night of both of their lives.
