Summary: I'm not sure if I can really summarize what I am going to have happen and I don't want to give it away. Elliot is divorced, has been for awhile. 'Loss" Never happened. I'm pushing for A/O. There is a huge possibility of other pairings. Major E/O flirt though

A/N: this won't be a very long story, I just couldn't stop writing and figured I should break it up a little. I have plenty to go on to.I hope this isn't confusing.


Friday- 5:30 p.m.

"Why are we still here?" Elliot groans out of nowhere, pulling the other detectives out from the silence at their desks.

"We are on guard to protect and to serve, my friend," Munch calls over to him.

"I don' know who your scrawny ass is protectin', but okay," Fin scoffs out to his partner

"Hey! I resent that!" Munch says back to him throwing a wad of paper across the joint desks.

Meanwhile, at the other set of desks, Olivia and Elliot have completely tuned out the others. Elliot looks over at his partner noticing her leaned back in her chair, a smirk on her face while she looks over at the pair, the smooth expanse of her neck, her breasts sitting high on her chest from the position of her fingers linked together at the top of her head showing the slightest bit of tan skin where her button up shirt has ridden up and unconsciously licks his lips.

"Why are you staring at me." She says to him, startling him from his ogling of her upper body, still looking away.

"I…uh…wasn't." he says a little embarrassed that she caught him without even looking at him.

"Yea, and I'm supposed to believe that? Did you forget who you were trying to lie to?" she throws back at him, meeting his eyes and dropping her hands to her desk while leaning toward him.

"Well…if you must know, I was just admiring your shirt"

"Or trying to look through it? Same thing right?" she laughs at him and he can't help not to laugh with her and he leans back in his chair.

"Ok fine! You win this time. It's okay to look."

"Oh, I get it, now that you're single, it's fine to drool, how nice, drool over Munch's magazines." She says loud enough to get John's attention.

"HEY!"

"That's not beauty." He says quietly even though he knows she heard him and he watches her look away and blush. And she is saved from giving him a response when the Captain's door opens.

"Why don't you guys go ahead and get out of here. Go shoot the breeze somewhere else!" he says with a smile on his face. Fin jumps out of his chair in search for his jacket.

"Don't gotta tell me twice! You lazy bums and Olivia wanna go get a drink?" he says as he throws his coat on.

"I'm in, how about you lazy bums?" Olivia says as she starts organizing her desk to leave.

"Yeah" "Whatever" the men throw out, as the familiar sound of heels get louder from the hallway.

"Listen…she's in a fine mood," Munch says quietly, and turns to where the sound is coming from. "Hey Alex!" he calls out

"Hi guys, is the Captain still in?"

"Yeah, he is in his office, you have plans tonight?" Olivia says to her, now standing putting her jacket on.

"Is paperwork plans? I have plenty."

"Well, if you want to give them up, we are gonna shoot over and get a drink or two, if you wanna come."

"Well, if I finish early, maybe I will stop by."

"Yeah, sounds good." She says quietly as she watches Alex walk into the office.

"Told you she was fine," Munch says after she disappears

"And how did you possibly know that?" Fin asks in doubt

"The sound of her heels of course, calm and collected, and she didn't call us 'detectives'. I thought you guys were supposed to pick up on this kind of stuff." he says peering over his glasses.

"Shut up Munch," the others groan out and head to the bar.


An hour later, they were still sitting around downing drinks, laughter erupting from their table.

"Wow, I thought this noise was coming from the barely legal table over there." Alex says as she walks up to the detectives' table. She notices the shot glasses in the middle of the table and pitchers of beer, then the glassy excited eyes of her co-workers. Fin gets up and pulls another chair up and places it at the head of the table for the A.D.A. who obviously went home to change, now clad in tight dark jeans, a white blouse, and of course heels, she looked like she would actually have a good time.

"I didn't think you were going to come!" Olivia squeals from her spot sidled up next to Elliot, her head lying up against his shoulder. She then bursts out laughing realizing she just squealed.

"Don't mind her Alex; she has been drinkin' us under the damn table." Fin says laughing at the brunette across from him as he passes Alex a glass and the pitcher of beer.

" I thought you were having just a drink or two." she jokes. Thanks Fin." She says back to him as she pours her beer.

"Hey Princess! Didn't know you would be a beer drinker!" Munch throws her way. She smirks at him and takes a big gulp of her drink.

"Oh John, there are plenty of things you don't know about me." She looks over at Olivia who is speaking to the waitress, asking for more tequila and watches Elliot lean over her, places his hand on her forearm and whispers something into her ear while shaking his head. She looks back to him, arches her brow and gives him a smile that makes her weak then she whispers back to him. Elliot's eyes shoot to around the table and then he looks down and she goes back to the waitress, clearly telling her to bring the shots. She feels jealous as she watches the two of them but pushes it down as she continues to sip her beer.

"Let's play a game!" Olivia calls out.

"Oh god," the men at the table groan out.

"Come on! Alex…?"

"What game?"

"Never have I ever! So?" She asks the blonde smiling sweetly at her.

"I'm in."

"We are too…" Munch speaks for everyone as the waitress comes back with shots for everyone and more beer.

"I'll start…" Elliot says, turning to his partner who he has put his arm around. "Never have I ever been called a tease." They break out in laughter and he looks around the table to see Alex, Fin also downing their drinks as he partner glares and takes hers as well.

"My turn, never have I ever had a threesome." Olivia says as she watches Fin take a drink. They laugh.

"What? They were twins!" Fin says loudly then joins the laughter. "Go, Munch."

"Never have I ever slept with a co-worker."

"Wait does that count no longer co-workers?" Olivia asks quickly, and then receives nods from the others at the table. "Fuck..." she whispers and takes her shot, alone. Alex watches her drink from across the table and swallows thickly as the brunette throws her head back. "Why does she have to look like sex…damn." She thinks "Go Fin."

"Never have I ever been attracted to the same sex." Olivia and Alex lock eyes and both down their drinks. Olivia looks around the table and watches the men, mouths slack.

"What?" she says

"Who?" Elliot says to her with a huge grin on his face. "Liv, you have to tell me. Alex, tell me?" She smiles at him but says nothing.

"It's a secret boys…Alex, go ahead." Olivia says. The men groan and give Alex their attention.

"Never have I ever done a body shot off a woman." She watches in shock at the people at her table as they all drink, even Olivia. Olivia catches Alex's stare and smiles at her then licks her lips chuckling as the blonde's eyes shoot to her lips.

"Alex that is going to change tonight!" Fin says breaking the connection between the ladies. She turns to him and blushes.

"No…" she smiles back at him shaking her head. She hears the rest of the table say 'yes' and she looks back at Olivia. "Do I at least get to pick who?"

"Please do," Munch says to her

"Before the end of the night, I need a little break from the alcohol." She lies, her heart pounding furiously.

"I think this calls for wings people!" Olivia calls out as she moves to get up from her chair, Elliot helping steady her. "I'm gonna go put in the order, our waitress is nowhere around." She watches Elliot stand with her, wrapping his arm around her waist, pretty much keeping her up. "OH! I love this song! El, you have to dance with me!" she says as she finally lets the music register and starts pulling him toward the crowded area where people are dancing.

Fin gets up from the table. "Well I'm gonna go put in the order for the wings, she ain't coming back soon. Believe me. I don't know how but, baby-girl can dance for hours," He laughs out. Alex nods her head and turns her head back to the floor. Olivia's arms are wrapped around his neck tightly her face into his neck. She takes note of Elliot's hand splayed across her back, pulling her tight against him as they sway slowly to the smooth slow music and tears spring to her eyes. Blinking them back the takes another drink of her beer.

"I thought you were done there Counselor," Munch asks eyeing her over his glass.

"Just thirsty," She smiles at him then looks into her glass.

"You know, all you have to do is ask her to dance." Alex pales instantly at his words and her wide eyes snap up to his.

"Wha-?" is all she can manage out through her shock. She shakes her head slowly, trying to clear the fog and tries again. "John, what are you talking about?"

"Oh come on-" he says before Fin comes back to the table with baskets of wings. John looks up at Alex and smiles, leaving her still dumbfounded. A few minutes later Elliot returns with a not so happy Olivia tucked into his side.

"I wanna dance El!" the buzzed woman states angrily

"Aren't you hungry?" he asks trying to get her mind off of it.

"Oh yea…" they sit down and dig into the food. Awhile later their table is cleared again and all sits is a martini for Alex, water for Munch, and beer for the other three. Mild banter is tossed around until Olivia speaks up, slurring her words more than before.

"Alex…want to do a shot with me?" she asks her and Alex looks at her with wide eyes then slowly nods. Olivia calls the waitress over and asks her for more. Not too long after she comes back and sets four shots of tequila on the table, a bowl of limes, and a salt shaker. She switches Elliot places and pushes all the ingredients to that end of the table.

She smiles slowly at Alex and reaches out to grab her hand. Not noticing how the rest of the table is silent and staring at her, she pulls her hand to her and flips it over, palm side up. She brings her brown eyes up to meet the nervous blue and chuckles softly. Olivia never letting her eyes leave the younger woman's, licks the smooth skin of her wrist, Olivia hears her gasp, but she doesn't stop. She reaches for the salt and pours a gracious amount on it and places a lime between the long fingers. She then reaches for her shot and smiles again. Alex stills herself and prepares for what is about to come next. Olivia leans in again, licks the salt off of her wrist, tips her head back as she down the shot, and quickly takes the lime from Alex's fingers with her teeth, making sure her lips linger in them a couple seconds to long.

Its then when Olivia closes her eyes for a second to enjoy the taste. As she opens them, as she pulls the lime from her teeth and looks again to Alex. She sees the pounding of her heart, the shallow breaths she is taking, and the dilated pupils of the blonde and smiles slowly at her.

"Damn baby-girl" Fin says startling Olivia a little and she leans back in her chair looking around the table at the stunned looks and blushes lightly. She catches Elliot's eye and notices he is experiencing the same as Alex and it makes her eyes light up. She laughs lightly and starts to unbutton her shirt, taking it off to reveal a tight white t-shirt.

"Olivia, what are you doing?" Elliot chokes out staring wide eyed at his partner.

She laughs again and says "I'm hot Elliot, don't worry I still have clothes on." Then looks back to Alex who is helping herself to a straight shot of the tequila and says quietly "for now…" She looks back at the table and moves to get up. "I wanna dance."

"Of course you do…" Fin says. "I can't do it tonight Liv"

"Good, because I wasn't asking you." She smirks at him, unsteady on her feet as she feels Elliot's hand on her forearm. She pulls him off as a new song starts to pound through the bar, and moves the few steps to Alex's chair. She looks into her wide blue eyes and pulls her up. "Dance with me…"
