Chapter #3
Elliot's Point Of View
Wow, I'm speechless. She never ceases to amaze me. I always thought I'd be the one to tell her how I truly felt, but now that she kissed me and I kissed her back, it's pretty clear.
We continued watching the movie for several minutes until I caught her staring at me.
" What?" I asked with a smile. "Huh? Oh, n-nothing." she stuttered nervously.
She layed on her side and placed her bowl on the night stand on her side of the bed.
Before she could turn around to face me, I grabbed her waist and pulled her toward me. My hand rested on her hip while the other rested the left side of her face.
Without hesitating, I leaned closer to her and kissed her. She kissed me back almost immediately and I knew she felt exactly how I felt for her.
We kissed until I pulled away and started kissing her neck. She let out several light moans, which turned me on.
I began biting her lightly, which made her moan a bit louder. This woman is AMAZING I was glad that we had finally gotten an idea of how we felt about each other. I didn't wanna rush things because I actually wanted something real with her, but the way she's moaning and reacting to me is driving me insane.
I was about to remove her shirt off of her, when she stopped me. " E-Elliot, hold on, baby." she moaned, I immediately pulled away and looked her in the eyes.
" What's wrong?" I asked, worriedly because I felt like I had done something wrong. "Nothing , it's just that I need to know if this is real or is it just-" she tried to say, but I cupped her face with my hand and looked her in the eyes.
" Liv, I know we've been partner's for a long time, but throughout the years that I've known you, I feel deeply in love with you. I couldn't help it, you're beautiful, smart, dedicated, gorgeous, and you're simply you. No one can possibly compare to you. You're one of a kind, baby. I know I should have told you this sooner, but I was married to Kathy and I didn't want to get a divorce without knowing how you felt. Anyway, I never found an appropriate moment to confess how I felt, and I'm not gonna lie, I was kinda scared, I thought you wouldn't feel the same way like I do, or that after I confessed to you things would get weird between us. But now that I know you feel the same way, all I wanna do is have you in my arms and be able to call you mine. So, Olivia Margaret Benson, would make me the luckiest man on this planet and be my girlfriend?" I asked as I wiped a couple of tears that were falling from her beautiful, brown eyes.
" Yes." she said as she wrapped her arms around my neck and hugged me tightly.
" I love you." she whispered in my ear and placed a kiss on my jawline. " I love you too, so so so much, baby." I replied back.
We fell asleep in each other's arms. I couldn't deny it, I had never been this happy before.
Finally, after many years of holding back my feelings, I got to tell her how I truly felt, and the best part was that she felt the exact same way.
