-Olivia's POV-
"El, I really have to go. I stayed with you for the whole weekend. I really need to get home." I say as he stops me from walking out the door.
"Liv, can't you get clothes, then come back?" He asks, seriously. What is he thinking?
"I can't just pack up my life, and leave. Plus, what am I supposed to tell Brian. He's probably already pissed off." I say taking a deep breath. "El, please let me go."
"What happens after you leave Olivia? You gonna ignore my calls? Change you number? Or just move on with Brian?" He said angrily, as he held the door shut, me pinned up against it. "you gonna forget about us? And everything that happened this weekend?"
"No El, I won't forget, change my number, or go back to Brian." I say with tears in my eyes. "that's the last thing I want to do, is be with Brian, and not you. Just give me time to break it off with him. Please, El. I'm serious about us if you are." I say looking him in the eyes.
"I'm serious about us Olivia." he says kissing my lips again softly. "go if you really have to" he says, stepping back from the door. I walk up to him and put my arms around .
"I have to go." I whisper into his chest.
"I know." he says kissing the top of my head.
"I'll come back, and I'll call you when Brian's gone."
"Okay, I love you" he says, it sounds weird coming from him.
"I love you too." I say before going towards the door.
"I'll come back el." I say as I reach for the door handle.
"I know you will liv." he says before walking into the living room, not looking back. I walk down and catch a cab to my apartment. I stare off into the distance.
"Aren't you Olivia Benson?" The cab driver asks.
"Yea." I say giving him a soft smile, although I want to cry.
"I'm Nathan Cassidy." he says causing my head to shoot up.
"Cassidy?" I ask him, suddenly intrigued by what he has to say.
"Yea, Brian's my brother. He wasn't lying when he said you were a gem." He says smiling.
"Thank you." I say, hoping he doesn't keep this conversation going.
"So, where you coming from?" Of course he had to ask.
"A friends." I say as we pull up to my apartment building.
"Okay." he says with a smirk. I pay him and walk into the apartment building, making my way up to my dark apartment.
"Brian??." I yell into the house.
"In here." He says from the living room. I walk into the living room, to find him sitting on the couch with a beer, and watching the game, that I was watching with Elliot, not even twenty minutes ago. "Hey baby."
"Hi." I say as I walk towards the couch. "I'm going to go shower."
"You have been working really hard this weekend," allowing for my guilt to resurface. "go get showered. I need to talk to you about something."
"Okay." I said, then walked off to go to the bathroom. After my shower, I walked back into the living room, seeing Brian getting off the phone.
"okay, thanks" he says, as I approach him in the kitchen, "Ill call you later."
"Everything okay." I ask, trying to read his emotion. He looked genuinely upset.
"No," he says harshly, causing me to jump. "Everything is not okay, OLIVIA." he yells, causing me to step back, and let out a soft cry.
"Whats wrong?" I say slowly, just above a whisper.
"That was my brother." he says causing my heart to drop, along with the tears rolling down my cheek.
"I'm sorry." I said in a whisper.
"You cheated on me with him."
