Olivia looked up when the front door slammed shut. Casey was standing there with her purse clutched in one hand, her other hand in a tight fist. "Case, what happened?" She asked before seeing the glare Casey threw her way. "Whoa!"
"I just walked in on your parents having sex in MY bed!" Casey shouted pointing towards the front door. "I want your mother out of my house."
"Well, just kick her out. If she's sleeping with my father, she should move back in with him." Olivia stated crossing her arms over her chest. "In fact, she's probably packing up right now. You might want to go save some of your food." Casey's eyes widened before she bolted back out of the house, again, slamming the door shut.
Elliot came down the stairs, frowning when he heard the door slam shut. "Who was that?"
Olivia looked up at him and smiled lightly. "It was Casey. She was just upset over something she saw. I haven't seen it since I was seven, but it's still burned into my retinas." She brushed off some fuzz from Elliot's jacket. "So, my brothers left this morning and the kids leave tomorrow morning."
"And, John is getting on a flight tonight to head to the Bahamas." Elliot grinned wrapping his arms around her waist. "Then, we will be locked in this house for seven whole days before the circus comes back."
"They aren't that bad." Olivia chuckled before their was a crash upstairs.
"That was Katie!" Nick called downstairs.
"No, it wasn't! You're lying!" Katie yelled stomping towards him.
Olivia patted Elliot's chest. "Maybe I spoke too soon." She hurried upstairs with Elliot behind her. When they found Nick and Katie, there was glass all over the floor from a vase that had fallen. "Oh my God! What happened?"
Katie pointed at Nick. "He took Teddy!" She said, holding onto the stuffed bear with her other hand.
"She yanked it out of my hand and it hit the vase. It fell onto the floor." Nick explained gesturing to the glass shards around them.
"Well, why did you have her teddy bear?" Olivia asked picking up Katie and looking over her bare legs to check for any cuts.
Nick rolled his eyes. "I wanted to test out my egg contraption. If I tied the egg to the bear, maybe it'd survive a two story drop. It's an assignment at school."
Elliot ran a hand down his face. "Well, you can't take your sisters things. And, you know that the teddy bear can never ever leave her sights." He looked at Olivia. "Is she okay?"
"There's a couple scratches, but we should only need one band aid." Olivia sighed before kissing Katie's head. "I'll go patch her up."
"Okay, are you okay?" Elliot asked Nick. Nick looked down at his jean covered legs and nodded. "Good, that means you can help me clean up the glass. Go get the broom."
Olivia listened outside of the door to Elliot's office. It was his last meeting before his week off and it was with an actor he didn't tell her about. She nearly fell over when John came up behind her. "Did you find out anything?"
"Not yet." Olivia whispered before turning back to the door. Her jaw dropped seeing Elliot standing there with Alec Baldwin. "Oh my God! Mr. Baldwin, I think you're just amazing!"
Alec smiled before shaking her hand. "They all do." He made a clicking noise an her, making her blush and act like a school girl.
"Alec, this is my nanny, Ms. Benson." Elliot stated putting a hand on the small of her back. Olivia rolled her eyes hearing him call her 'Ms. Benson' again. They were dating now. He could at least say Olivia Benson. "So, I'll talk to your agent and we'll work something out. John?" He said, gesturing for him to escort Alec out.
John looked up at Alec Baldwin and smiled lightly. "I'll lead the way" He said before leaving the room with Alec.
Elliot looked at Olivia to find her staring after him, looking like she was about to fall over with her heels. "Why are you checking out other guys?" He asked from behind her.
"Sorry, Mr. Stabler, I'm just the nanny, Ms. Benson." Olivia smirked turning to him. She crossed her arms over her chest. "He checked me out right in front of you and you made no indication that you and I were dating. It's hardly dating when we've only been on a couple dates over the past four months."
"But, we love each other. That's all that matters." Elliot said taking her shoulders into his hands gently.
Olivia shrugged them off. "But, if you don't show it to other people, what's the point? I'm a thir-... twenty-nine year old woman. I need someone who isn't afraid to show his feelings, El."
Elliot nodded after a moment, sighing. "Alright, I'll work on it." He smirked before wrapping his arms around her waist, pulling her flush against him. "That was my last business meeting. My whole week is cleared for you." He saw Olivia was still a little upset about the whole 'Ms. Benson' incident. "How about we go out tonight?" Her eyes lit up at the sound of that. "There's a gala downtown tonight I was going to skip, but we should go. Alex can babysit the kids. She just can't take them anywhere." He chuckled remembering what happened the last time she took care of the kids.
"It's a Friday night. She might be busy." Olivia sighed poking out her bottom lip in a pout.
"It's Alex, Olivia." Elliot frowned with a smile, knowing for a fact his business partner hadn't had a busy Friday or Saturday night a years. Olivia chuckled at him and kissed him softly. "I think John fixed that dress that you wore the night we almost did it. You could wear that."
Olivia crooked an eyebrow at him. "When should we leave?"
Elliot shrugged. "I don't know. Maybe in a couple of hours." He watched as her eyes widened to saucers before she ran towards the stairs. "What's wrong?"
"I have to get ready!" Olivia shouted from the balcony before disappearing into her room.
"I don't know if I'll be able to make it home. I'm so full." Olivia chuckled leaning back in her chair and putting a hand on her stomach. Elliot laughed at her before pecking her lips. "I'm not even kidding. The only way I'd make room is if there was a chocolate desert."
"It's a chocolate melting cake." Elliot smiled pointing to the small menus they had standing on each table.
Olivia's eyes widened. "That sounds delicious." She got up with a groan before grabbing Elliot's hand. "C'mon, we gotta dance so I can burn off some of these calories." Elliot stood up and followed her onto the dance floor, taking her into his arms before they started dancing. "I kind of feel bad that we're not spending tonight with the kids when they're going to be leaving tomorrow morning."
Elliot rolled his eyes. "I felt that way at first, but when I told them that Alex was babysitting, they started planning what they were going to do with her." Olivia giggled at him before resting her head on his shoulder. "Also, I had to change the locks on the doors. Your mother made herself a copy of our key. So, remind me to give you your key when we get home."
"Okay, good thing you did too. I didn't tell you because I didn't want you to freak out on her. She came to our house in the middle of the night. I found her eating the last of your birthday cake." Olivia said with a small smile.
"I knew I didn't finish it." Elliot said as if he had an epiphany. Olivia giggled into his shoulder, blushing when she snorted. "Oh my God! Did you just snort?"
Olivia shook her head. "You did not hear that." She said looking up at him with her big brown eyes.
Elliot chuckled at her and kissed her nose. "It was kind of cute."
"I can't wait to crawl into bed and fall into a fifty hour coma." Elliot groaned holding Olivia's hand as they walked up to the front door. Olivia nodded in agreement with a yawn before Elliot unlocked and opened the door for her. They walked in and took off their jackets, looking around the house. "Where's Alex?"
They both heard a snort from the couch and chuckled. "I think I found her." Olivia smiled before walking over, screaming when she saw what the kids did to her. Alex screamed back as she stood up, Elliot running over to make sure nothing bad happened. He stopped dead in his tracks seeing Alex, trying to contain his laughter.
The kids had put fake paper cat ears in her hair, probably taped in for all they knew. They had painted her face to look like some zombie cat, a fake bloody gash in her forehead. When Alex blinked, painted yellow eyes showed. It looked like Nick's glow in the dark paint. The paint even went down her neck. "Why did you scream like that? What's wrong?"
Olivia was trying not to chuckle at this point, knowing it would tip her off. "Sorry, I thought I saw a spider on you, but it was just a hair." She lied, turning to look at Elliot so Alex wouldn't see her smile.
"Thanks for watching the kids tonight, Alex." Elliot grinned before wrapping his arms around Olivia. "I hope the kids weren't too much trouble."
"They were complete angels." Alex smiled, obviously lying through her teeth. "Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm meeting my mother downtown at that new seafood restaurant." She grabbed her purse and left the house, hurrying out to her car.
Olivia laughed into Elliot's shoulder as he chuckled hanging onto her. "Her mother is going to have a heart attack when she sees her." He smiled before rubbing her back. "I wonder why they're having dinner so late."
"Imagine how many people are going to see her like that." Olivia giggled before looking up at him, kissing him lightly. "That was good." She chuckled before taking his hand into hers. "Let's go to bed." Elliot smiled at her before following her upstairs.
