Hello everyone! Sorry it's tooken me so long, been so hard to focus lately. As you all know school comes first, but anyway I'm gonna make this update very special. It will be long, sweet, hot, and musical. So let's start shall we....✌

°°°°°°

I bit down on my bottom lip, as I looked at the purple silk robe, grabbing my cup of wine. Remebering that hot night like it was yesterday...I quickly through back the wine, as my throat quickly dried up. "Mr. Stabler you're just full of surprises."

It had just turned midnight when Elliot walked through the door. He softly closed the door, not wanting to worry Olivia, seeing the light coming from the bathroom. he was still relaxing, he wondered if she saw the ring. Strolling into the kitchen, he smiled at the sight of the three eaten strawberries, no matter if it had chocolate on it she still ate it not even close to the top. He placed the items on the counter right beside the vased flowers, he took out the candles, oil, and some wine. He was so proud of himself for accomplishing their first valentines day together. Grabbing a spoon to stir the pasta, my eyes landed on a red colored card, sitting beside the stove. After turning the knob off for the pasta, he picked it up and opened it, squirting at the black cursive handwriting reading carefully:

"A poet, aye?" I chuckled at the thought, being near this woman for 12 years, and it never came up for me to know about it. Guess there is still a lot to learn from the Olivia Benson, that I secretly question sometimes. I grabbed the wine glasses and got it ready for us. Carefully lighting the candles, and dimming the lights trying to get that romantic vibe; 'so the kids say these days.' I finally decided to place pedals all over the bed, now all I needed was music. I pulled up my playlist which took weeks to make for tonight, this was my first time doing this for someone I loved. Kathy always rathered going out to eat at a restaurant, instead of staying home, which I never understood. I talked to Berny about it and she loved the idea, since I surprised her with one once. So for the love of my life, I want this to be perfect...

Putting on my Bluetooth, I tapped the first song I laid eyes on. Slowly noticing it's mom's favorite song, Can't Help Falling in Love by Elvis:

Wise men say, only fools rush in

But I can't help falling in love with you

I sighed in delight, feeling the warmth and the sent of vanilla as it engulfed me from behind. I softly slipped my phone into my pocket, and swiftly turned around to meet with those beautiful brown eyes, perfectly toned skin, mixed with that big beautiful smile. It makes my heart flutter, just knowing that I put that kind of smile on her face. "Happy Valentines Day, Liv."

She placed her hand on my cheek, not saying a word before her lips met mine. "El..you really didn't have to do all of this jus-..." before she could finish, I placed my lips on hers, once again not wanting to hear what she was going to say cause I'm just going to fight her on it. I ran my fingertips through her wet shoulder length hair, as I finally pulled her hair lightly just to break the kiss.

Shall I stay?

Would it be a sin

If I can't help falling love with you?

"You're right, I didn't have too, but I wanted too. You're my world now...that's all that matters." I pulled out the chair for her to sit in. "I'll pick up Noah from Lucy's tomorrow, and we'll spend time together."
