Alex smiled as she watched her lover dance her way through the crowd. For someone who claimed they had no rhythm Olivia sure could move. In and out of the bedroom. Almost as if she knew Alex was watching her she turned around and winked at her. Alex smiled back at her as she reflected how much had changed in the past year and half. It had been a slow up hill climb but one that was well worth it.

A year and a half ago Olivia had walked out. Then six months later with the help of her mother she had walked back into her life. Since that day Alex had done everything she could to prove to Olivia that she not only believed in her but trusted her as well. It must have worked because almost six months ago Olivia had moved back in.

For them it was as if their communication seemed to improve immensely. Alex seemed to be able to make Olivia understand her need for her to be home. With the exception of when an officer was shot in the line of duty and Christmas Day, when Olivia would work a double for an officer with kids, she was home at a reasonable time. Olivia was able to get Alex to understand the need for her to hit the local cop bar once in a while for some off duty fun with the boys. Something that Alex learned about at the departmental Christmas party.

There was no longer a thought or concern when it came to Olivia and other women. There had been instances when Alex was going through Olivia's pocket so she could send the uniforms to the cleaners when she came across numbers. They always brought back the memory of that day and caused her to laugh. Laugh at how stupid she was to think Olivia was the same as the others.

It had also became a standing joke between them. Whenever she would find any numbers she would always give them to Olivia reminding her to hide them better. She was getting really tired of finding them. Olivia would always smile with a little twinkle in her eye and promise she would try harder.

There had only been one time that even had Alex slightly wondering. It wasn't a number but a handful of business cards. They were business cards for free lap dances at a strip club called the Golden Cat. It wasn't wondering if Olivia had a girl there but if she liked women stripping for her. Of course Alex stripped for Olivia but not in the sense of how a stripper would.

Alex not wanting a repeat of the previous occurrence debated half the evening how to approach the subject. If Olivia was going to strip clubs she was fine with it. She was just upset that Olivia hid it from her. Then she started thinking that maybe Olivia would like to experiment with role playing. If that was the case Alex would be more than happy to take a stripper course and install a pole in their bedroom.

Alex was pacing the apartment and constantly shifting on the couch. Olivia who was relaxing on the couch watching a game finally had enough and leaned back. She patted the couch, motioning for Alex to join her. Alex quickly relaxed into Olivia's embrace.

"You want to tell me what has you acting like a caged cat?" Olivia asked.

"Just a lot on my mind."

"Like what?"

"What do you think of strip clubs?"

"Its not really my thing but if that's something you're interested in we can go to one."

"I was thinking about the Golden Cat."

"I don't suggest that one. If you want to go to one we will go to Shooter's Alley."

"Why Shooter's Alley and not Golden Cat?"

"Shooter's Alley cater to law enforcement, Hence the name. Golden Cat is nothing but trouble."

"Then why do you have free lap dance cards to Golden Cat?" Alex asked as she buried her head into Olivia's chest scared of what she would think.

"So that's what this is about." Olivia said as she started laughing "Honey do you remember last week when I was in a bar brawl and was hit over the head with a beet bottle."

"Yeah"

"That was at Golden Cat. We responded to a fight and was able to break it up without damage to property. To repay us the owner gave us all cards for free lap dances. If you want to use them why not get a few of your friends together and go enjoy them."

"No that's ok"

"Then why all the questions?"

"I, umm, I found them in your pocket and I thought you were going. Its not that I don't trust you I just thought…"

"Thought what?"

"Maybe that was something you liked."

Olivia started laughing and pulled Alex tighter against her.

"The only woman I want or care to see naked is you Blondie."

"I know that I was thinking maybe you wanted to you know role play."

"Only if you want to. Now will you please relax so I can finish watching the game?"

"So your not mad or upset at me?" Alex almost whispered so low that Olivia barely heard her and was too scared of the answer.

"You came to me honey you didn't jump to any major conclusions. You asked me instead of assuming the worse. That's all I want from you but I am curious on the track your mind went. That maybe I wanted to role play. Is that something you're interested in?"

"No, Yes, I don't know."

"You handle your internal battle and let me know."

"Can I get you a drink?" A voice asked pulling Alex from her thoughts.

"No thanks I'm with someone."

"Well, I don't see them around so name your poison." The female stated as she placed her hand on Alex's back running it up and down it.

Alex was about to smack the woman's hand from her when she caught sight of Olivia in the mirror. The look in her eyes sent shivers up and down her spine. In all the time she had never seen Olivia jealous or even a hint of it. But tonight it was written all over her face.

"She's with me." Olivia said as she walked up to Alex.

"Well" The woman said glancing over to Olivia and then back to Alex "That's a shame. Although I don't see a ring so I still have a chance."

Olivia stepped up on the woman and growled.

"Ring or no ring, you don't have a chance because she's spoken for. Now leave."

Alex who had never seen Olivia like this was not only turned on but extremely shocked. In the past when they went out and women would offer to buy her drinks Olivia would just shake her head. Later that night they would usually have a good laugh at it. Tonight she had a feeling something was different.

The woman knowing when to leave and when to fight opted to turn and leave with her tail tucked between her legs. Olivia who was satisfied she was far enough away turned to Alex.

"I'm ready to leave how about you?"

"You know maybe I wanted to accept that drink."

Olivia raised her eyebrow at the statement before pinning her against the bar.

"Is that so" Olivia growled into her ear "Is that what you want? Because the last time I checked you were mine."

"Take me home." Alex groaned out turned on by the jealous and possessive side of Olivia.

Olivia nipped Alex's ear lobe before roughly grabbing Alex by the hips and guiding her out the door.
