Please review! You guys are great!
It was Friday! The last day of the week where they had to wake up at six to get ready for school. Tonight was the big game against the Panthers. They were St. John's enemy. Elliot kissed Olivia's head as he joined the table for breakfast. Olivia smiled at him licking the syrup off her lips.
"I love it when you do that." Elliot smirked at her grabbing a waffle. "Not this. At least no this early." Jordan moaned. "Jordie, knock it off. They're just in love." Bernie scolded her son. "Whatever you say Mom. I'm just glad that I only have one more day in this house." Jordan smirked.
Since Jordan was a senior, he got to go on the senior class trip. It was a bus full of his classmates going down to Florida. Good news, Jordan was going to be gone for a whole week. Bad news, since Kathy was due almost any day now, she couldn't go on the trip. They were stuck with her for another week.
"Yes, one more day and then we will finally experience heaven for a week." Elliot smiled. "Be nice to your brother." Olivia chuckled hitting his stomach. "He started it." Elliot said. "Well, I'm ending it." Olivia smiled squeezing his knee. "Fine." Elliot grumbled.
"Whipped!" Jordon coughed. "I'm not whipped. I just happen to have a girlfriend that I like to keep happy. If she's happy, I'm happy." Elliot smiled. Olivia smiled warmly at him and kissed his cheek.
Joseph came down rubbing his face. He took the day off so he knew he could come to Elliot's game. "Today's the big day!" Joe said clapping his two sons on the shoulder. "Yep, hopefully our quarterback has a good game." Jordan smiled nodding his head towards Elliot.
"Your brother has a good game every time." Joe smirked looking proudly at Elliot. "Hey, what can I say? I'm just that good." Elliot smirked leaning back in his chair. Bernie spit out the water she was drinking by the stove. She burst into laughter.
Elliot heard Olivia and his sisters chuckle behind him. He rolled his eyes. "Hey Dad, can I talk to you for a minute?" Elliot asked. "Yeah sure, my office." Joe said leading Elliot into the other room.
Once the door was closed, Elliot didn't waste time. "I'm ready." Elliot said. "Ready for what? The game? I would expect you to be." Joe said. "No, it's not about the game. I'm ready." Elliot said. Joe looked at his son a moment and realized what he was trying to say. "You're ready?!" Joe said in a whisper. "I've been ready for months. I'm sure Dad. It's time." Elliot said.
Joe took in the meaning of his words. His son was making a big desicion, but in the right direction. Joe smiled. Seeing this, Elliot smiled and let out a sigh of relief. "I'm guessing you asked me for your gran-" Joe started but was cut off by Elliot's nodd. "Okay then, I'll go get it." Joe smiled.
Elliot beamed the whole day. He was excited for tonight. All the football players were pulling him aside to here the plan again and again. Elliot got the feeling they were just doing it because he liked telling his plan over and over again.
In PhyEd class, they had a free day. Elliot and Olivia decided to go to the racquetball court. After playing for a while, Elliot rested against the wall. "Okay, best three out of five." Elliot breathed. Olivia chuckled sitting down next to him.
"So, it went from a single game to best two out of three to best three out of five?" Olivia asked. "Yeah." Elliot smiled. "You just want to beat me." Olivia giggled. "I thought we already figured that out." Elliot laughed. Olivia looked at her watch.
"Hey, we should probably go to the locker rooms. Class ends in two minutes." Olivia said standing up. She helped Elliot up and they walked back into the gym where everybody was playing something.
Elliot snarled as they walked by Kathy and her friends. They still picked on Olivia for dating Elliot. It's only high school. I will have my whole life with her. Elliot thought calming himself.
He locked his fingers with Olivia's as they walked out to his car. Instead of getting in right away, Elliot grabbed Olivia's hand and pulled her into the tailgate with him. "What are we doing?" Olivia chuckled.
Elliot pulled her in between his legs. "Do you remember the first time we sat back here?" Elliot asked. "Of course, I was trying to guess where you were taking me on our first date." Olivia smiled leaning on his chest.
"Yep, you were such a tease." Elliot chuckled. "You wouldn't tell me. I still don't like surprises even though that was a good one." Olivia defended herself. They both laughed. "What about it?" Olivia asked.
"That was only eight months ago. Since then, I've fallen in love with my soul mate. I made love to her numberous times. The first time, on a football field in the rain. Liv, you are everything to me and more, you know that right?" Elliot asked. "I know El. I feel the same way." Olivia whispered.
Elliot kissed her ear and sat with her in his arms for a moment. "How did I get so lucky?" Elliot asked. "You deserved it." Olivia smirked. "Plus, along the way, I'm pretty sure god figured out I was the one for you." Olivia chuckled. "Yeah, I don't think just God saw it there Liv. Remember Casey, she knew we'd get together after the first day of school." Elliot chuckled.
"I know. Were we that obviously in love then?" Olivia asked smiling. "I have no idea. All I know is that, no matter what, I could never go back to not being with you. I love you too much for that." Elliot said. "I do too." Olivia whispered.
That night, Olivia was pumped up on the sidelines. She watched as their team went up in points. Their was no doubt they were going to win when the score was 44 to 21 in the last three minutes of the game.
Elliot smiled looking at the score board. His plan was going right on track. The time started ticking as the team ran towards the endzone. Jordan was tackled at the 14 yard line. Elliot was hiked the ball. Everybody was blocked or blocking somebody.
Elliot did the only thing he could do. He ran. He dodged one guy trying to get him by the legs. He piveted when a guy came at his left side. Elliot jumped over another player and landed on his side in the endzone.
The crowd erupted as time ran out. Shorty helped Elliot up. The cheerleaders ran onto the field to join the football players. After a few minutes of cheering and jumping around with Olivia, Elliot grabbed a microphone the coach grabbed for him.
"Hello everyone. I'd like you all to stay for a minute or two and sit down, the football players, cheerleaders, and me especially have something we'd like to do." Elliot said into the microphone. Elliot led Olivia to the bench to the position they all agreed on.
Everyone sat down in the stands. The football players and cheerleaders all grabbed a sign. They all got into position. Elliot waited for everything to be perfect. He smiled at Olivia who looked confused as she stood in her cheerleading uniform.
"Thank you. When I came here this year, I didn't expect anything different. I was so wrong. The first day of school, I was reunited with my best friend. The second day, I asked her out on a date. With my good looks, she said yes." Elliot smirked into the microphone.
The crowd chuckled. Olivia just smiled. "I love my girlfriend. Our first date was on this football field. We had so much luck that it started raining. I told her I loved her that night. She said it back. I have the privilage of hearing that everyday. I plan on hearing it everyday for the rest of my life from her. Her name is Olivia Benson." Elliot smiled.
People in the crowd cheered briefly. "You know her." Elliot chuckled pointing to the people that stood up. The crowd laughed again. Elliot turned towards his team and the cheerleaders and nodded. He turned back to Olivia as each sign was lifted.
Olivia gasped when she read it. It read- Team Momma or Olivia, will you marry me? Olivia's eyes filled with tears she was so happy. "So Liv, will you marry me?" Elliot asked. Olivia was handed a microphone from the coach. "Thanks." She said and turned on the microphone on.
"Elliot... of course I'll marry you!" Olivia smiled. The audience stood up cheering as Olivia ran to Elliot and kissed him. He twirled her around. He took his grandmother's ring out of his pocket and placed it on her finger. She let some of her tears fall while she smiled.
Olivia kissed him again. "Go Elliot!" They heard Will yell at them. Olivia chuckled as they parted. "I love you." Elliot smiled. "I love you too." Olivia smiled back. He lifted her up and twirled her around again.
That night, Elliot and Olivia sat in the sand outside of the house watching the water. "Where did you come up with the idea to propose like that?" Olivia smiled. "Well, I wanted all of our friends to be there. We had our first date, kiss, and ...you know on the football field. It just seemed perfect for us." Elliot smiled holding her tighter.
"It was more than perfect. I was fricken crying Elliot! I do not usually cry when I'm happy. You're the only one that can do that to me." Olivia smirked leaning on his chest. "I take pride in that." Elliot said. "Oh, I know you do." Olivia laughed.
"Hey you two, it's time for bed. Get your butts in here." Joe yelled kindly at them. "Coming!" Elliot called back. He got up, helping Olivia up as well. Olivia looked at the ring. "When did you want to get married?" Elliot asked. "As soon as possible." Olivia smiled at him.
