Can You Keep A Secret?

Chapter Eight // Wondering

-Elliot's POV-

It's around 3 a.m. I had a few too many so I'm just sitting outside Olivia's in my car thinking about how big of an ass I am. First I start sleeping with my partner/ best friend then on top of it all I sleep with a woman I'm not even interested in. And all because Olivia wants to date someone, which she has the right to do. As far as anyone is concerned she's single.

I get out of my car and stumble up to stair buzzing Liv's apartment.

"Hello?"

"Liv"

"Elliot? It's 3 a.m. Go home"

"Liv let me up please I wanna talk"

"Fine you get five minutes, come on up"

She buzzes me in and by the time I get to her apartment I'm sobered up a bit from having to focus of all those damn stairs.

Olivia is at her door with it open. I walk in and sit.

"El what do you want to talk about?"

She sits across from me

"I love you"

"You're drunk"

"They say alcohol is a truth serum"

"If you love me tell me what you were doing at the victims apartment building."

"I was seeing a friend"

"Half naked?"

"Yes"

"Elliot.."

"Okay... I.. I slept with someone"

-Olivia's POV-

HE SLEPT WITH SOMEONE ELSE? First he cheats on his with with me and the one night I have a date he sleeps with another girl? How childish can it get.

I stay quiet, it feels like a knife just went through my stomach.

"Liv..?"

"Elliot, get out before I start saying some choice full words."

"Liv" he puts his hand on my arm

"If you Liv me like you say you do. Go Home!"

I hold my tears back until he leaves.

-Kathy's POV-

Where is he? It's almost 4 a.m.
(Head lights flash out side)
Finally, he better have a good excuse as to his whereabouts.

He walks in.

"Elliot Stabler where on earth have you been"

"Out"
He stumbles a bit

"Are you.. Drunk?!"

"Is the grass green? Let's stop asking questions we already know the answer to"
Elliot sits on the couch.

Why is he acting like this? This isn't him.

"Since you're already there, you can stay there. We're going to talk about this in the morning and I want answers."

"Yeah sure"

I go to bed. When I wake up and go down stairs to talk with Elliot he's already gone off to work. I get furious since he knows I wanted to talk to him. "You know what I'm going down there, we're going to talk about it now" I got dressed and headed to he precinct.

When I walk in , Elliot and the others are  surrounding a screen talking about a case I stand there and Craigen points me out. He walks over to me worried.
