I hate feeling like this, I so tired of trying to fight this...I'm asleep and all I dream of is waking up to you...Please tell me that Ты will listen, because your touch is what I'm missing...And the еще I hide, the еще I realize...I'm falling in Любовь with you...

Elliot sat at his desk, fiddling with a pen. At the стол письменный, стол opposite him sat Olivia. Her head in a cold case, she was desperately trying to find some lead that could help them catch the bastard that raped a little girl. It was nearing midnight and they were the only two in the squadroom. Her hair caught the dim light, it beautifully framed her face. Although he hadn't realized it, he was engrossed in everything about her. She lifted her head from the file,
"What is it, Elliot?"
"Oh, um nothing" Slightly embarrassed his face turned pinkish. "Do Ты want to order so chinese maybe?"
"Sure, I haven't eaten in hours. What time is it?"
"Nearly midnight" he сказал(-а) glancing at his watch.
Liv sighed "I didn't realise how late it was..." She got up and grabbed her coat, "I should probably be going."
"Wait!" Elliot jumped and grabbed her hand, "You should eat before Ты go, I'll order some chinese."

Half an час later, they sat at their desks laugh, joking over fried рис, райс and special spring rolls. It was different to be so light hearted for once, in their work it was usually a sombre mood that filled the squadroom.
"Shouldn't Ты be Главная now? Its after midnight!" Liv looked worried
"Don't worry, Kathy and the kids are away on a holiday..." An awkward silence fell over the two...The Stabler family was slowly disintegrating and it was a touchy topic.

Stabler slowly got up and walked around to Liv's side of the desk. He took her hands and pulled her up. Standing infront of him, he could smel her perfume.
"Liv, I..." he didn't finish. He leaned in and kissed her. It could have been seconds, it could have been hours. Time stood still until they parted. After a few moments of silence she сказал(-а)
"Elliot, I think I've fallen for you..."
