Day 46: Anonymous: Olivia's POV as she walks down the aisle on her and Alex's wedding day.
.
Alright, Olivia thinks, standing at the doorway of the function hall, as soon as this door opens it's only a thirty-foot walk down the aisle. You can do this.
She looks up at the clock by the door and sighs, wringing her hands. "I don't think I can do this."
A laugh and then, "You better do this."
Olivia spins around, gawking wide-eyed at Alex. "Wow," she breathes.
Alex blushes, doing a little spin in her wedding dress. "Like what you see, Benson?"
Olivia swallows hard, feeling the tops of her ears flush. "Yeah."
Alex smirks, raking her gaze over Olivia's body. "I think I'll like you better out of that dress."
"Alex!"
Chuckling, Alex shrugs. "So," she says, "the plan's changed and I'm here to walk you down the aisle."
"You can't just change the plan on our wedding day, Alex."
Alex sighs. "It's better this way."
"Why's that?"
"Well now I can make sure you don't bail on me."
Olivia looks downright scandalized. "I would never."
"I know," Alex says, smirking. She links her arm with Olivia's, preparing for the doors to open. "Ready, Liv?"
Olivia sighs, pretending to consider the doors for a moment. "I suppose."
Shaking her head, Alex rolls her eyes. "You're an asshole."
Olivia grins. "That's why you love me."

"So," Olivia says, running her fingertip down Alex's spine much later that night, "there I was on the arm of the most beautiful woman in the world and all I could think was 'don't trip'."
Alex laughs, already starting to fall asleep. "And now?"
Olivia hums contentedly. "Now I can't stop thinking about how lucky I am."
