Chapter 10 – Perfect

A/N: I watched this show earlier that was debating gay marriage and whether its right, it got me really riled up because I think that everyone deserves to find love, love is something special that everyone deserves, gender shouldn't even come in to it. I dedicate this chapter to everyone out there who needs a little love or agrees that love in all its forms should be cherished not persecuted. I truly hope that everyone has a special someone that makes them smile, even for a little while. Oh and on that show there was this one awesome woman who said something I thought was awesome, I quote, "If you don't like gay marriage blame straight people. They're the ones who keep having gay babies."

Quinn: I'm glad you're hooked. You might just get your request this chapter. Wiggles: Sorry but I am a tease LOL I'm glad you love it. abbierena: Yep a step closer! Maybe they will get closer this time. Kryss: I am a huge sarcastic person, I love writing dialogue for these two. Lamia of the Dark: I'm not sure yet, I'm letting my muse run this. prentiss-be-mine: I agree LOL =) I'llbearound: Yeah things probably would be awkward between Olivia and Elliot if anything happens.

It really goes without saying, I DO NOT OWN SVU! So here is more of the story, hope you enjoy!

"Liv, you look like crap." Elliot said concerned that his partner was working too hard. The bags under her eyes seemed bigger than yesterday; anyone could see that the strong woman had been having trouble sleeping.

"Thanks El." Olivia retorted sarcastically, "Way to make a girl feel good about herself." She shot daggers at her partner before rubbing her dry tired eyes and resting her heavy head on the desk in front of her.

"Maybe you should go catch some sleep in the cribs. I'll come wake you if anything happens." Concern was evident in the older detective's voice.

"Fine. But you better wake me Stabler." Olivia knew that she needed to get some sleep, ever since Kathleen had spent the night last week her dreams had become even more vivid now that Olivia knew what the smaller women felt like curled around her in bed, even if then it was only to sleep her mind was twisting it into so much more.

Olivia groaned, forcing her body to comply and dragged herself up to the sanctuary of the cribs. She was out before her head even hit the pillow.

"Hey Dad." Kathleen stopped by her father's desk eyes searching for a head of chestnut locks as she entered the squad room. "Olivia around?"

"Yeah she went up to the cribs a few hours ago; poor thing was dead on her feet." Elliot told his daughter. "Seems like something is keeping her up at night." Kathleen smiled at this, wondering if it was the same thing that was causing her to wake panting at night. Whether she plagued the brunette's dreams as much as her own consisted of the toned detective.

"You think I could go see her now?" Elliot smiled at his daughter, he loved that his daughter and his partner were becoming fast friends, both seemed happier for it. Elliot even got to see more of Kathleen.

"Yeah she should be waking soon anyway. She never seems to be able to sleep for more than a few hours at a time during a case." Elliot gave his daughter a hug before she made her way through the busy room towards the stairway that led to the cribs upstairs.

Olivia started awake at the creak the door made as it opened revealing a smiling blonde. She rose to sitting position leaning against the wall facing Kathleen, smiling fondly at her newest friend.

"Hey Olivia, sorry if I woke you." Kathleen apologised as she approached the now fully awake detective.

"It's ok. I should be getting up now anyway; you never know what trouble the guys are causing downstairs." She laughed a little at her own joke; breathe hitching as the young blonde sat down next to her, shoulder to shoulder, thighs pressed together deliciously.

"You have a nice sleep?"

"U-uh yep. It was pleasant." Olivia blushed remembering the dream she had been in the midst of before the cribs creaky door disturbed her.

Kathleen noticed the blush rising across the brunette and quickly surmised the type of dream she had interrupted, hoping that she was the star of this particular woman's obviously intimate dream.

"I've been thinking allot lately." Kathleen looked at Olivia, turning her body into the detective slightly.

"Y-yeah?" Olivia stammered at their closeness.

"Uh huh. About us." The blonde shuffled closer still.

"Us?" The detective's throat became dry. Not sure if she wanted to hear what the blonde was about to say. She knew her resolve was beginning to be eroded by the captivating beauty.

"Hmmm. About what we are. What we could be. We both know that just friends isn't possible." She looked deeply into chocolate eyes, pleading with Olivia to admit it.

"I think you might be right Kathleen." Olivia whispered, her eyes dropping under Kathleen's intense gaze. "I can't stop thinking about you." She admitted.

The blonde's heart began to beta faster; she was worried that the detective would hear it. She reached out to clasp Olivia's slightly larger hand. Olivia looked down at their entangled digits before looking back up into brilliant blue eyes.

"I can't stop thinking about you either Olivia. I've never felt like this before." A single tear trailed its way down creamy white skin. Olivia reached up with her free hand to wipe away the tear that caused her own eyes to fill up.

"Please don't cry sweetie." Olivia's voice thick with unshed tears.

"I'm sorry it's just, it's getting harder to pretend that I don't feel this way, it hurts knowing that this, whatever is between us is mutual but you don't want to give me a chance. Am I not goo . . ."

"You better not finish that sentence Kathleen;" Olivia gently scolded the younger woman "You are more than good enough for me."Olivia willed the blonde to hear the truth in her words.

"Then why don't you want me?" the blonde continued to cry softly.

"I do want you Kathleen. More than anything." Olivia traced her thumb over Kathleen's knuckles. "You mean so much to me Kathleen. I really like you."

"Then why won't you give this a chance. And please don't say my father! He shouldn't have any say in who I fall for. Who you fall for."

Olivia sighed.

"I think I just . . . Kathleen I admit that I have fallen for you. Hard. I feel more for you than I've ever felt for anyone but . . . I'm not good at this. I can't do this. Every relationship I have falls apart, leaving me . . ."

"I won't hurt you Olivia." Kathleen rose to her knees facing the now also crying brunette.

"But what if I hurt you? It's what I'm best at." Olivia sighed softly, defeated at her own words. She knew that Elliot was only part of why she was reluctant to start anything with the beautiful woman next to her. She knew that in time she would run things and she wanted to save them both from inevitable pain.

"I'm willing to take the risk Olivia. The question is, are you?" Kathleen pressed on. "Do you feel enough for me that you want this?" She watched so many different emotions flitter across the detective's face that she couldn't keep up.

"I want you Olivia. Forget about everything else for a minute and answer me honestly. Do you want me?" Kathleen husked, the double meaning in her words causing her arousal to peak.

Olivia swallowed, mesmerised, hypnotised, Kathleen's voice a seductive murmur.

Kathleen saw Olivia's barely there nod. Slowly, carefully watching for any signs of rejection she crawled so that she was straddling the taller woman's lap. She used her dainty fingers to raise Olivia's chin, forcing the brunette to look at her.

Olivia looked up at the woman straddling her; she felt herself grow wetter but also felt her heart swell at the adoration and affection in the blonde's clear eyes.

She could do nothing but comply. So she did nothing, nothing but watch Kathleen's luscious lips inch closer. When she went out of focus Olivia closed her eyes and waited, but not for long. Kathleen's sweet cherry red lips finally brushed against her own fuller ones, she took a snatched breath, and moaned softly into the kiss.

Kathleen's lips were soft and loving in their assault, her mouth sweet to the taste. Kathleen was the first to pull away and stare longingly into Olivia's confused eyes. Olivia placed her hands on Kathleen's dainty wrists and seductively slid her hands slowly up to her elbows, then to her shoulders, she kept contact with Kathleen soft skin before sliding her fingers to her delicate neck, she gently fingered it with her thumb, she slid her fingers to Kathleen's golden locks and urged Kathleen's lips back to her own.

Olivia parted her kiss swollen lips begging for entrance, Kathleen happily obliged, and she massaged her tongue with her own. The kiss became more impatient and frantic as time passed; Olivia sucked Kathleen's tongue into her mouth and continued to suck it gently before nibbling Kathleen's lower lip, Kathleen moaned the softest moan Olivia had ever heard and their urgency increased.

Olivia finally lifted her head and placed a final kiss to Kathleen's lips before her eyes glazed over with unshed tears.

"Wow." Kathleen breathed.

"That was . . ." Olivia tried to form words.

"Perfect." Kathleen whispered. Olivia smiled at the blonde in her lap, drawing her into her open arms.

"It was. But I have to work. Can we talk about this another time?" She gently pushed the blonde off her lap crossing her legs trying to ease the burn that had increased tenfold the moment the sexy blonde climbed into her lap.

"S-sure." Kathleen sighed disappointed that they couldn't talk right now. She leaned forward capturing Olivia's waiting lips once again before pulling back smiling as Olivia whimpered at the loss of contact.

Olivia watched the hypnotic sway of Kathleen gorgeous figure as she left the cribs.

A/N: Hope this was worth the wait. I wanted their first kiss to be about the strong feelings they were gripped by and not be caused be sexual frustration. Please review to let me know what you think. My first kissing scene ever. Next up Olivia talks it out with Casey. I know everyone says this but reviews really do make you review faster. So you know, review =P
