She wonders if the neighbors can hear their screaming, if they’ll call the police despite the fact that two officers are inside, simply because they don’t know that the greatest fighters on earth are the ones who battle the world on a daily basis. “I asked for space! I asked to not spend every fucking second of my day with you and that means I’m pushing you away? You never take responsibility for a damn thing, including when you’re wrong! I swear to God, falling in love with you has been like trying to control a bull in a damn china shop! So walk out if you want, Elliot, but at least admit you’re the one who is ending this!”
“That is such bullshit!” And all of a sudden, Olivia watches as his posture changes. His stance becomes pliant, no longer rigid but relaxed almost like he has discovered the secret to a peaceful life. The corners of his lips twitch, lifting just slightly. “What did you just say?”
The bastard is smiling and it’s nice to know the end of their relationship is about to end in him smiling, and her kicking his ass.
She shakes her head, as if confusion can be erased with a quick movement, like her brain could become readjusted and make sense in the wake of exasperation. “What are you talking about? I—“
“You don’t realize what you said, do you?”
She’s still wearing her gun. It’s probably not healthy that she has thoughts of killing him as much as she sometimes does.
“I said I hated you. Do you really want to hear it again? Because believe me, right now, I have no problems saying it.”
“No.” Elliot stands in front of her now, inches apart, as his voice lowers to a whisper. He brushes his lips against her ear, and she shivers beneath his touch. “I want to hear you tell me you’re in love with me, again.”
“I didn’t…” Oh, fuck. No. She couldn’t have just told him that, not when she was this mad. She can feel the blush on her cheeks, the warm heat that rushes over her. The words surge through her mind, and shit, shit, shit. She shakes her head again, because this time she thinks the puzzle pieces of her mind will fall back into place. “I didn’t tell you that.”
“Yes, you did.” He wraps his arms around her waist, pressing his lips against her forehead, as he pulls her to him. “Tell me again.”
