Chapter 14

"Marry me," Elliot whispered.

Olivia froze against him.

"What did you say?" she asked her voice barely above a whisper.

"I said Marry me," he smiled against her neck, before placing soft kiss. "I know we have only been back in each other's lives for a week but I love you Liv. I have for so long. We may have been apart for 2 years but it never stopped the love between us, the feelings I had for you only intensified when I was away from you. I never thought we would ever be together like this. I used to dream about it all the time. "

"El, I….."

He slowly pulled out of her and moved onto his side and turned her so she was facing him and put a finger to her lips. "Just think about it, Okay. No pressure. I don't want to pressure you. I'm not leaving no matter what the answer is Liv. I'm never running from you again."

"Okay," she smiled.

"However," he said reaching behind him and pulling open the bedside draw and reaching inside, taking out a small box.

"El," said Olivia still unable to say anything more than his name, as he gave her the small box.

"This used to be my grandmothers. My mom gave it to me years ago. She said I was to give it to the woman I wanted to spend the rest of my life with. That's you Liv."

Olivia looked at him tears threatening to fall.

"When you're ready, and you know for certain I am the person you want to the rest of your life with then I want you to put it on, until then just keep hold of it."

Olivia nodded and looked down at the small box in her hand. "I do love you El, more than I have ever loved anyone. I just need time to take all this in. Everything is so crazy at the moment and happening so fast."

"I know, and I didn't mean to spring this on you like I did, it just sort of happened," he smiled at her. "That's why I don't expect an answer straight away."

Olivia wrapped her arms around his neck and held him tight. "You are so amazing," she said holding him tightly to her.

"Yeah I have been told that a few times," he chuckled. Olivia shook her head. Elliot pulled back and he kissed her softly on the lips. "Now why don't you pack a few things into that day sack, you won't need to much just a few overnight things, whilst I jump in the shower."

"What exactly are we doing?"

"I just thought it would be good for both of us to get away for a few days, so that's what we are doing."

"Where we going?"

"That bit is a surprise, just don't pack too much," he grinned as he walked into the bathroom. Olivia shook her head and dropped back against the pillow. She couldn't believe he had just asked her to marry him. As much as she wanted to say yes she had to know he hadn't just blurted it out in a mad moment or because he felt like he had to ask after everything that had happened. She knew he loved her and she loved him. She just had to know for certain it was what he really wanted. She sat up and looked at the small back pack he had left for her to pack. She smiled and shook her head how the hell was she supposed to pack when he wouldn't say where they were going.

"Liv you ready!" he yelled.

She walked out the bedroom and glared at him. She was wearing a pair of jeans and a tight fighting shirt. "Will this do?" she asked.

"Yeah a lot better," he told her. She had previously come out in a skirt and he told her to go and change. "Let's go," he said going out the door carrying both their packs. Olivia followed him.

"I'm still not happy, not knowing what's going on."

"That's the whole idea of a surprise baby. After everything that's gone on I thought you, no we deserved this. So just relax and enjoy it."

Olivia smiled as she followed him downstairs. Just before they were about to go outside he stopped.

"You're gonna need these," he said to her reaching down and picking up a leather jacket and helmet.

"What the hell," she said as he opened the door and walked outside; she looked at the jacket and helmet and followed him out. "El," she said as he stood by a black and silver Harley Davidson a huge grin on his face. "This…. this is yours?" she asked him.

"I wish, I rented it for the week."

Olivia walked up to the bike and looked it over. "Wow it's great."

"Yeah, I kind of didn't think it through properly though," he said looking at her wrist with the cast on. "Will you be okay."

"I will be fine Baby," she smiled as she put her jacket on. "I can't believe you done this."

"Well I remembered that time we were doing a stake out on a guy who had a Harley and you said you would love to just jump on a bike and go, get away from everyone and everything."

"El that was years ago, I didn't even think you were listening to me."

"Well I was, and I thought this would be a great way to relax and chill out for a while."

Olivia walked up to him and wrapped her arms around his neck. "You are amazing do you know that," she said kissing him. He moaned into her mouth as she kissed him hard and full of passion.

"Liv, you need to stop," he told her. "Otherwise I'm gonna have to drag you back upstairs and strip you naked again."

"Come on let's go," she grinned, slapping his ass and pulling on her jacket and helmet. Elliot loaded their small bags onto the bike.

They both climbed on and Elliot started the bike roaring it into life. He turned round to Olivia "You ready!" he yelled over the noise of the bike.

"Can't wait!" she yelled back a huge grin on her face as she slapped down the visor. Elliot copied her put the bike into gear and pulled away from the sidewalk into the traffic.

Once they hit the highway and out the city Elliot opened up and he felt Olivia hold a little tighter to his waist as they moved in and out of the traffic. After being on the road for about an hour they pulled into a gas station. Olivia climbed off the bike and removed her helmet with a huge grin on her face. Elliot still sat on the bike removed his helmet and looked at Olivia.

"My god El that was brilliant," she said wrapping her arms around his neck and hugging him. Elliot wrapped his arms around her waist.

"Glad you liked it."

"Liked it, I loved it," she said kissing him.

"Thought we would stop here for some gas and grab a coffee before we carry on to where we are going," he said climbing off the bike and started to put gas into the bike.

"How much further we got to go."

"About another hour."

"So we are heading towards Atlantic City huh," she said nudging him with her hip.

"Somewhere around there yeah."

"You finish putting the gas in and I will go and pay and get us some coffee." She kissed him quickly and walked towards the café and shop.

Elliot watched her walk away and sighed. He never thought he would ever feel like this about anyone. Sure he had loved Kathy but the love he felt for Olivia was off the scale. How he ever left her for two years he doesn't know, but he knows he could never again be apart from her.

Elliot walked into the coffee shop and found Olivia sat with two coffees and a doughnut for each of them.

"You read my mind," he said sliding into the seat opposite her and picking up his doughnut taking a huge bite.

"You are such a pig when you are eating," she laughed.

"Yeah but I'm your pig and you love me," he said with a mouthful of doughnut leaning over the table and kissing her.

They sat in silence for a while eating their doughnuts and drinking their coffee. "Thank you for this Elliot. It's just what I need, what we need. Time away just me and you. Time to find each other again without any interruptions."

"I just want to try and help you heal. I know you're never going to forget what Lewis done to you. I just want you to start living again and enjoy life. I know me leaving like I did didn't help, I was a selfish prick and all I thought about was myself. I never thought how my leaving would affect you and how you felt. I just keep thinking if I hadn't left none of this would have happened. I just want to make it up to you."

"Elliot you just being back in my life is helping me live again. I have never felt so alive than I have the last week with you. I keep thinking there Is something wrong with me, that I should be depressed, angry full of hate after what happened with Lewis. But I'm not because you're back in my life. Just having you here with me makes me happy, you make me happy and safe Baby," she told him taking hold of his hand across the table. "Don't get me wrong I hate Lewis, but I am handling it a lot better than I did Sealview because I have shared everything with you."

"I still can't believe you don't hate me for leaving like that."

"I can't hate you El, I have never been able to hate you even when you were being an arrogant prick," she laughed. "Which let's face it was a lot of the time over the 12 years we were together."

"I did have my moments didn't I?" he said as he wiped his eyes to stop the tears.

"Just a few," she answered wiping away his tears. "Now come on I want to get back on that bike and get to where we are going, I want a repeat of this morning," she said wiggling her eyebrows at him making him laugh.

Just over an hour later Elliot slowed the bike and turned off the highway taking a smaller road through the trees. Pretty soon it turned into a dirt track heading down to shoreline, after a few more minutes Olivia saw a beach house stood alone just off the beach, she couldn't see any other houses in sight. Elliot stopped the bike next to the side of the one storey house, and turned off the engine. They both took off the helmets and climbed off the bike.

"El this place looks amazing," she said looking around. "How did you…. I mean it must have cost a fortune to rent."

"Didn't cost a thing," he smiled. "It belongs to a friend of Kathy's, he is a Doctor at the hospital where she works. He always said me and Kathy could use it if we wanted to."

"So you used to come here with Kathy?" she asked looking a little disappointed that he had brought her somewhere he had once been with Kathy. "Great."

He walked up behind her and wrapped his arms around her waist and rested his head on her shoulder "Liv I never came here with Kathy, I promise you. I would never bring you to a place like this if I had been here with my ex-wife. I want this to be special to us, and only us." He kissed her neck. "I want to make happy memories here with you and only you."

She turned to face him and put her arms around him holding him tight. "So why don't we get in there and start making those happy memories, I want to check this place out and then I could do with a shower after that ride up here."

"You could huh?"

"Hmmmm and I need someone to wash my back as I can't manage it with one hand," she said lifting her hand up with the cast on.

"I reckon I can help with that," he said putting his arm around her and leading her up to the front door. As they got to the door it opened and an older looking women smiled at them.

"You must be Elliot," she said smiling and holding her hand out to him. Elliot took her hand.

"Yeah I am, and this is Olivia." Olivia smiled at the woman.

"Well I have everything ready for you, fridge fully stocked. Here are the keys," she said handing them to Elliot. "I have left my number by the phone if you need anything else. If you just give me a call when you know what time your leaving I will come for the keys."

"Thank you," said Elliot as she headed past them. "Have a great stay," she said to them as she walked off up the track. Olivia and Elliot watched her leave.

"Where the hell is she walking to, I didn't see any other houses around for miles," laughed Olivia.

They walked into house and stood in the main room and just looked around.

"Wow," they both said together as they looked around. They were stood in a large open plan room with white floors and walls. A huge TV and couch over one side of the room, a pool table off to the side and a large kitchen area at the other side of the room. A large window with sliding doors led out the back of the house.

"El this place is amazing," she said leaving loose of his hand and walking in.

"Kathy says they Guy is loaded and done this place up as a place to bring his girlfriends and friends," laughed Elliot walking around the room.

"How come he just let us use the place?"

"Kathy asked at first if we could rent it for the week, she told him why we needed it short notice. Apparently when he realised who you were and what you had been through he refused to take any money."

"Well we really need to thank him, cause this place is great." She walked over and opened the sliding door to the back of the house. There was a large fence around a grassed area and a small pool. At the end was a gate leading out to the beach. A couple of sun loungers and a set of table and chairs, and a BBQ area. Elliot walked out into the sun and looked around the garden.

"Oh yeah," he said grinning back to Olivia as he got to the corner of the house.

"What is it?" asked Olivia coming up behind him. Tucked away in the corner of the garden was their own private Jacuzzi. "God why do u have to have this on my arm," she sulked lifting up her arm.

"Hey there are ways around that sweetheart…You know," he said wrapping his arms around her waist. "I have always wanted to make love in a Jacuzzi," he smirked.

"You have, have you. Well I guess we will have to see what happens," she told him as he pressed his lips against her neck and began to kiss and suck at her skin, pushing her up against the side of the house. His hands slid up her body and pushed her jacket off her shoulders dropping it to the floor before slowly undoing the buttons on her shirt, and taking hold of her breasts and gently massaging.

"Hmmm El, baby what you doin?" she asked running her fingers through his short hair.

"If you gotta ask Liv, I aint doin it right," he mumbled as he moved his kisses down her neck and between her breast taking hold of nipple between his teeth over the top of bra.

"El we are outside, up against the side of house."

"Yeah and there is no one around, we are secluded from everyone….. I need you baby, I need to taste you so bad," he said as his hands pushed her bra up over her breast and he sucked gently on each nipple before kissing his way down over her stomach to the top of her jeans. He dropped down onto his knees, as he undone the button and zip on her jeans and began to tug them down over her hips, kissing her over the top of panties as he pushed them to the floor. Olivia couldn't believe he was doing this but she couldn't stop him it felt so good, she loved the way he made her feel. She kicked her boots off and stepped out of her jeans. Elliot looked up at her she was leaning against the house in only her panties, her bra pushed up over her breasts and her shirt hung open.

"Fuck Baby, do you know how hot you look?" he asked her as she pulled her shirt and bra off leaving her in only the small black panties.

"Less talking Baby," she told him pushing his head back to her pussy. Elliot grinned and licked her pussy over the top of her panties, she gasped as she felt his tongue over the top of the material.

"Hmmmm," she moaned as he pushed the panties to one side and slid his tongue inside her moist folds and licked her full length.

"Oh god El," she gasped as he took her clit into his mouth and sucked gently. Elliot lifted her leg over his shoulder to give him more access as he ripped her panties from her, before lifting her other leg over his shoulder as well and supporting her with his hands as his mouth devoured her pussy. His tongue pushing deep inside.

Olivia looked down and watched him as he ate her out tasting her juices, his tongue never tiring. Elliot had never tasted anything so good, the feel of her on his tongue and in his mouth was too much. Keeping hold of her with one hand he undone his jeans with his other and released his rock hard cock. He gripped hold of himself and began to stroke himself as he carried on lapping, sucking and nibbling her.

"Fuck El," she gasped as she pushed her hips towards him. "That feels so fucking good…. Shit baby," she panted as she looked down and seen he was jerking himself off as he continued to fuck her with his mouth and tongue. It was all she needed to push her over the edge and she came hard clamping his head between her thighs as she did. Her fluids flooding into Elliot's mouth.

He carefully dropped Olivia's feet to the floor as he carried on jerking himself of getting closer and closer to his own release. Olivia slid down the wall and straddled his thighs.

"Come inside me El," she said taking hold of him and guiding his cock into her soaked, hot opening as she impaled herself on to him and began to grind her hips onto him taking him deep and hard as she rode him hard and fast. It didn't take long for Elliot to release inside her coating her walls as she kissed him hard on the mouth as she came again with him and gripping him hard.

Still panting for breath Elliot looked up at her and grinned. "Wow baby that was…"

"Amazing," she finished off for him. "And definitely a good new memory. I have never done it outside in daylight before," she laughed.

"Well let's hope that is the first of many this week for new memories."

Later that evening they lay together on the large couch, music playing quietly in the back ground. Once they had left the garden earlier that afternoon they had showered and made love again before falling asleep for a few hours. After they had woken up they made something to eat and then lay together on the couch with a box of chocolates.

"You okay," he asked her kissing the top of her head. She was lay between his legs her back resting against his chest.

"Never felt better," she told him popping another chocolate into her mouth. "I can't remember the last time I was so relaxed."

"Yeah me either," he said playing with her hair as she reached back and put a chocolate into his mouth.

"You know I've been thinking. We know a lot about each other, but it seems to be all the bad stuff. My Mom, your mom and dad, stuff at work, type of food we like, but not much other stuff…." She said to him.

"So what do you want to know, ask away."

Olivia thought for a while "What's your favourite colour?"

Elliot chuckled "Of all the questions and that's what you ask."

"Yeah well I'm building it up slowly," she said elbowing him in the side.

"Okay…..blue I guess."

"How about that me to," she smiled. "Your turn."

"Favourite type of music?"

"Erm…. I don't really I like everything, it depends on my mood and what I'm doing I suppose., how about you?"

"Rock, not heavy stuff though and…. Some country stuff," he said whispering. "But don't tell anyone."

"I won't don't worry," she smiled. "Who was the first girl you kissed?"

Elliot smiled to himself "Jasmine, she lived down the street from me. It was her 8th birthday party. We were hiding under her stairs and I kissed her."

Olivia looked up at him "What did she do?"

"Well I would like to say she kissed me but she didn't. She hit me said Yuk and pushed me over then ran away, I was heartbroken." He said pretending to pout.

"Awww poor baby," she smiled kissing his hand.

"So what about you….who was the first girl you ever kissed," he said smirking. Olivia grinned as well.

"Cloe Andrews," she told him.

"W…what?"

"She was my first roommate in college. We got drunk one night and made out, for a bet at first, but then when we got back to the dorm things just carried on."

"You mean you…."

"Yep, for just over two months, we only stopped because she left."

"Wow," he said as his mind worked over time. Olivia felt his erection against her back and laughed.

"So what about you, you ever kissed another guy." She expected him to deny it straight away but instead he just went quiet. "El?" she said turning her head to look at him. His head was down and his face was slightly red.

"Oh my god, you have haven't you."

"Erm yeah."

"When, how old were you.?"

"Look can we just forget it?" he asked not looking at her.

"Oh no," she said turning around and sitting up climbing on his lap. "Spill it now Stabler. You can't say yes and then not give details." She lifted his chin so she could look at him. "Hey I would never judge you about anything and you don't need to feel embarrassed in front of me." Elliot sat quietly for a few seconds.

"I was…. It was when I was in the Marines."

"The Marines, but weren't you married then."

"Yeah….it just sort of happened. God I have never told anyone this ever."

"I'm sorry, look if you don't want to tell me then you don't have to. I shouldn't have pushed you."

"It's okay, it's just not something I ever thought I would talk about. He was in the same platoon as me and we became good mates. He confided in me one night that he was gay. I told him it didn't bother me, he was a good friend and I kept it to myself. Over the months we became really close, I found him easy to talk to and he could talk to me, without being judged. We were doing our training for Iraq and we were given a weekend off. I normally would have gone home to see Kathy and Maureen but they were at her Moms and I would have spent more time travelling. I was gonna stay on camp but Mark asked me if I wanted to come to his parents instead of spending the weekend alone. His parents had a huge house swimming pool, pool table a bit like this place but three times the size."

Olivia smiled down at him as she listened to him talk not wanting to interrupt, she could see he was having trouble talking about this.

"We spent all day on the Saturday drinking, playing pool and relaxing. The Iraq training was hard and it was good to just chill out you know. Anyway there was a knock at the door when I was in the pool, Mark answered and this guy stormed through the house, he started screaming and shouting at Mark accusing him of cheating and sleeping with other guys. Mark was trying to calm him down and this guy lashed out and punched Mark knocking him to the ground. He was shouting at Mark telling him how useless and pathetic he was. I ran over to them and pushed this guy off Mark. He yelled "He's fucking all yours" before storming out. Mark was lay on the floor crying holding the side of his face. I sat next to him and helped him sit up asking if he was okay. He was still crying tears running down his face, he looked so helpless."

Elliot looked down at Olivia "I don't know what happened or why I done, whether it was the alcohol or what but I leant forward and kissed him. Not a small quick kiss but a full on kiss, and it didn't feel wrong."

"What happened next, what did mark do?"

"Kissed me back. I couldn't believe I was doing what I was doing, I mean I was married and straight and there I was making out with another man, we couldn't keep out hands off each other, it was crazy."

Olivia felt herself getting aroused as she thought of Elliot and Mark together.

"How far did it go?"

"Far enough, I mean we didn't go all the way, but we spent the rest of the weekend together you know and I didn't regret any of it whilst we were there."

"But after, when you got back to camp."

"I realised it shouldn't have happened. Not because it was a guy, but because I was married with a kid, I had responsibilities. I talked to Mark and he said he understood. The next thing I know he is gone, left the Marines. I got a letter a few weeks later saying the marines wasn't for him and it was nothing to do with me, I never saw him again."

Olivia ran her fingers though his hair. "El…. Did you love him?"

Elliot looked up at her "Honestly…I don't know if it was love, but I cared for him."

"And if you hadn't been married?"

Elliot shrugged his shoulders "I don't know."

Olivia bit her lip "Have you ever had feelings for any other men?" she asked him.

"No baby, never," he said as he lifted her t-shirt over her head. "Mark was the one and only time," he said placing small kisses between her breasts. "I still don't understand myself what or why it happened, it just did."

Olivia looked down and watched him as he took her nipple in his mouth "Did you ever tell Kathy what happened?"

"Never," he said switching breasts making Olivia moan. "You're the only person I have ever told. I never felt comfortable with anyone else to tell them. But I know you would never judge me or think any less of me."

Olivia held his head to her breasts and he sucked and kissed them. The thought of Elliot and another man was hard to imagine, but god those thoughts turned her on. "El," she said as she ground her hips down on his growing erection.

"Hmmmm," he answered without removing his head.

"Let's go to bed."

"Okay," he mumbled putting his feet on the floor and standing up with Olivia in his arms. "So you gonna tell me a bit more about you and Cloe?" he asked her as they entered the bedroom. "As in how far and what exactly you both got up to in that dorm room."

"I will make you a deal, I will tell you exactly what we done, if you tell me how far you actually went with Mark."

Elliot looked up at her and grinned "Deal," he laughed throwing her down on the bed and ripping his clothes off as Olivia looked up at him laughing.

Next up another chapter of just Elliot and Olivia spending time together and getting to know each other a lot more. I definitely think only two more chapters left to this story. Don't forget them reviews.
