A Train Out [A Bensler Fan Fic]

=14=

Olivia waited at the train station and wanted to see Elliot so badly, but his train had been delayed for nearly a half hour. She kept pacing the train platform, but it didn't seem like it was working to get the train their quicker.

"Who are you waiting for?" An older man asked once Olivia had finally sat down. She looked over at him and sighed softly.

"My boyfriend. You?" She replied back.

"My granddaughter is coming to live with me... I bet she isn't too much older than you." He spoke, smiling a  bit. Olivia noticed that he seemed a bit nervous about his granddaughter coming to stay with him.

"How old is she?" Olivia asked.

"She's 17. She's getting into trouble in Boston, so they sent her on a train out here to stay with me... I hope she likes me and doesn't hate me for what her parents needed to have happen." He sighed, before standing up. He swayed a bit, but he regained his balance as the train finally signaled it's arrival. Olivia stood quickly, as she tried not to run out to the train as it pulled in. The man moved closer to Olivia and looked at her.

"Can I have your name and number? I don't know you, and it might sound weird, but you look like a nice girl and my Vanessa needs a nice girl in her life to get her back on track." He spoke, and Olivia looked at him and saw how desperate he was.

"Yeah, I can do that," Olivia replied. She found a pen and a scrap of paper in her purse before writing her name and number down. Then she quickly gave it to the man as she saw Elliot climb off the train.

She went sprinting to him and started to kiss him as soon as he held her in his arms.

"God, have I missed you, babe!" Elliot exclaimed once they were parted.

"I missed you too! We need to get home now because I just want to be able to talk to you about everything. And I want to be able to kiss you and not have people staring." Olivia breathed, as she buried her face into his neck.

"Let me just grab my bag, and you and I can get into the car and head home. Also, I just want to warn you about a girl that flirted on me." Elliot spoke, and Olivia groaned.

"Don't tell me about that. Just... let's just go now."

Elliot and Olivia made it back to their trailer and both were very talkative. Neither really cared that the other kept repeating what they said because they just wanted to spend all the time together they could.

"So, how did she take it? Or why did she get such bad mania?" Olivia asked as she helped Elliot unpack.

"I told her about you. That I love you and that I'm not living in Manhattan, but that instead, I'm going back to Denver to be with you. We have plans to be together, and those plans are exactly what I want." Elliot spoke, and Olivia nodded slowly.

"She stopped taking her pills?" Olivia asked, and Elliot frowned as he sank down onto the couch.

"Yeah. It's my fault. I feel so bad, but I couldn't keep lying to her. She was trying to hook me up with a bunch of different people from our old church and she was trying to get me back to school."

"We have our GEDs... geez." Olivia sighed because she was more angry about the girls that Bernie was trying to set Elliot up with, and not the school.

"Oh, here is your gift," Elliot spoke, and Olivia's eyes went wide because she had forgotten about the stuff Avery sent with Elliot.

"Is she just as amazing as I've been told?" Olivia asked, and Elliot nodded.

"She's absolutely amazing. Babe, she looks so much like you. And like, she danced for me to the ABC's." Elliot spoke.

"I wish she was here with us. We would be great parents to her." Olivia sighed softly before she grabbed the package and sat down on the couch beside Elliot.

"We would, but the way her parents look at her... they are madly in love with her and I think that they are meant to be her parents, and you are meant to be her Momma Liv, even though you can't raise her."

"Look at all of these." Olivia breathed, as she flipped through the several pictures that Avery had sent along for her.

"And... she even sent you this," Elliot spoke, as he grabbed a well worn stuffed pig. He handed it to Olivia, who was crying again.

"Why?" She asked as she sniffed a bit.

"Baby, it's her favorite. I had been talking to her parents about how you had a hard time sleeping when we first left, and she gave that to me before I left and said it helped the monsters go away. I was shocked she said monsters so well." Elliot grinned. He leaned over and pecked Olivia's cheek before standing and leaving her in their living room. He was so beyond happy that Olivia still got to be apart of Avery's life, even though they were so far away.

It was about a week after Elliot got back when that old man's granddaughter called Olivia. She said that her grandfather was driving her nuts to get out of the house. So Olivia agreed to meet with her and have coffee while Elliot was at work.

"Olivia?" A pretty brunette asked when she walked over to the table Olivia was sitting at.

"I take it you are Vanessa. It's nice to meet you." Olivia spoke, as she stood. Vanessa sighed before sinking down into the chair across from Olivia and took a long drink from her cup.

"My grandfather is so annoying. He wants me to spend time with 'good girls' and stop dating 'bad boys'. Like, who does he think he is? And I saw a boy on the train that I'm going to date." Vanessa spoke, and Olivia nodded because that is all she could do.

They may be the same age, but Olivia was far more mature than Vanessa.

"Who's the boy?" Olivia asked, and the girl pulled her phone out and showed Olivia a picture of the boy she wanted to date. He was sleeping when she took the picture, but Olivia knew that face. 

"Isn't he so hot?! Like, I really think he is going to be fun." Vanessa smile and Olivia sighed softly.

"Yeah, not gonna happen," Olivia spoke, as she started to pack up.

"What? Why not?!" Vanessa pouted a bit.

"Because I'm his girlfriend."
