A/N: I thought this chapter could do with some light heartedness, HIV is a big problem and it doesn't need to be the drama focus for every chapter. So I thought you loyal readers, deserved a nice chapter… or two before the * hits the fan!

Olivia stirred as her alarm clock buzzed in her ear. She leaned over to smack it quiet, and rolled back over. She didn't want to get out of bed she had every intention of laying here with her head under the covers, and her mind on Elliot Stabler.

The buzz of her cell phone went off, and she groaned.

She snatched it from the side table and saw that it was a message from Elliot.

HI LIV, HOW U DOIN?

She smiled as she punched the key pad, to reply.

SLEEPIN. NO DESRE 2 GET UP!

She dropped the phone on the bed beside her, as she waited for a response.

Thoughts crowded her head. She had HIV. It was the same thought that flooded through her mind every time she woke. It wasn't going away. This was the kind of mistake she would live with for the rest of her life… the kind of situation she could never escape, like the childhood her mother had bestowed upon her.

God, how had she been so stupid?

The phone buzzed again, causing her to jump from surprise.

GOOD. CUM WIT ME! PAK A BAG. I'LL B THRE IN 1 HR. xo

Olivia laughed. It sure sounded good. Where was he taking her? What was she supposed to pack?

She dragged herself out of bed, and threw in everything she could think of. Winter clothes, summer clothes, formal, causal, shoes, swim wear, and the everyday necessities. When she was done, she had two suitcases packed. She made a call to Cragen to take time off work until further notice, she had vacation time coming, and took a shower before Elliot arrived.

He met her at the door, and laughed when he saw the luggage she had waiting.

"I guess this means, you and I are going away for a while," he grinned.

She shrugged. "Guess so."

On the drive to the destination, the two laughed and played around like they never had before. The cases that they worked on left little room for humor, and for a change they were taking a different lightness approach.

Eventually, Elliot pulled the Sedan into a farm paddock, and she looked out the window, to see a log cabin.

Her face lit up. "WOW…"

"I rented it for a good price," he explained.

He pulled the car to a stop and climbed out, taking their luggage from the trunk of the car as Olivia stopped to admire the view.

"This is incredible."

He dropped the bags by the car, and crossed the green lawn to approach her. He pulled her into his arms. "YOU are incredible, Liv."

"I'm stupid, I-"

He pressed a finger to her lip. "Nope. There will be none of that. Not here… not now! We enjoy the holiday and the rest of the world disappears."

She sighed leaning against him. Yes, this was heaven.

Not sure if I'll have another LIGHT one before the next drama, considering its SVU! Lol… you tell me :)
