Bridges of Love- 4
Chapter 4*****************
As soon as Alex was out of the office she headed straight to the grocery store to get what she needed for dinner. Upon entering her apartment she quickly took a shower and got into comfortable clothing, black slacks and a baby blue button down sweater. Heading to the kitchen she made a u-turn to check her messages, she noticed the she had one new messages in her machine.

" Hey Honey, I just called to say, hi and I am looking forward to dinner with you and Olivia... your mom told me about the guest and I have to say it’s the only part of the night I'm not looking forward too, but anyways see you tomorrow and say hi to Olivia for me...I love you.. bye...BEEP! 'End of massages...no more messages...
Sighing she turned and headed towards her kitchen to prepare dinner. Alex decided to make some Italian Meat Lover's Lasagna, garlic bread and tossed salad on the side. 'Who am I kidding is about the only dish I know how to do well‘ Alex thought deciding to be realistic to herself. She should have everything just about done in about 1 hour. Looking at the digital clock on her range she concluded it was more the enough time, so she started her task.
45 minutes later Alex was about finished with dinner. Olivia was due any minute and so she skips to the bathroom to touch and wash up, she didn’t want to smile like garlic and spices. She was almost done when she heard the ringing of the downstairs bell. Finishing she hurried to let Olivia in.
“Hello, who is there?" She said smiling to herself knowing who it was already.
“Det. Benson N.Y.P.D Open up!" Olivia said trying to be as serious as humanly possible. All the while grinning like an idiot.
"Do you have a warrant?" Alex said playing around.
“I have a Badge and a big gun.... and cuffs” Olivia said all along indulging in very specific visions.
“Oh Lord! That should grant you access anywhere." Alex said sure that Olivia could hear her giggles
through the speaker. "Come on up." And so Alex released the lock. Looking at herself in the mirror close to the entrance of the apartment she mad ensured she was looking descent.
'DING DONG' came the sound of the door bell. Alex opened the door and smiled at her guest who was carrying a bag in one hand and a bouquet of assorted flowers in the other.
Greeting Alex with a smile she handed Alex the flowers and the bag that was a bit heavy. Alex notice by the shape and size it was some kind of alcohol beverage. 'Wine.. she so thoughtful' Alex silently appreciated before she actually voiced it, "Cabernet Franc 2006 ...wow. Nice this kind of red requires a scavenger hunt,. Should go nice with dinner.”
“I got it as a gift, never opened it when I found the price tag." Olivia revealed with a slight shrug. “So it smells good in here, watcha cooking?” Olivia sniffs the aroma emanating true out the apartment.
“Meat Lasagna with French garlic bread and salad." Alex said gently folding the impeccably white kitchen towel and laying over her forearm waiter style hand on hip and wearing an accomplished smile.
“How come you don't cook more often?" Olivia was curious.
“Well First of all I don't have the time to cook all the time as you perfectly know; second this is one out of 3 recipes I know how to do well, third and most important I have no one to impress with my culinary art." She finished reverting her sight elsewhere.
“So are you trying to impress someone tonight?" Olivia asks hopefully and chastised herself for it at the same time. 'don't get cocky know Benson." She warned herself mentally she was looking for the slightest of hints.
"Maybe." Alex answered back. “So let eat. Go sit and I will bring everything out." Alex started moving around the kitchen Olivia thought she looks beautiful and all homey like sexy Betty Crocker.
Alex had laid out a nice spread Olivia was delighted and in between groans of pleasure coming from Olivia every time she took a bite, Alex was satisfied that she had done a good job and maybe did impress the brunette after all, who was she kidding everything she does she uses the brunette as inspiration, even in her job.
“Do want some more wine?" Alex asks on her way to the kitchen to put away their dinner plates.
“Sure I'll have another glass....Thanks” She said when Alex return with her glass one for herself.
“Come let’s go to the living room." Alex suggested and they relocated to the couch.
“So you were saying that you sometimes go to the Hampton on vacations?" Olivia continued a conversation they were having at the dinner table.
“Yes my dad has an estate in East Hampton South of the Highway. I used to go all the time before I started with the DA office. I haven’t been there in a long time. I would like to take you there sometime."
"I will love too." Olivia said excitedly and looking into blue crystal eyes that shine likes sapphires.
“Plus dad has a collection of ancient wine bottles in the cellar. We can get anciently drunk."
By know they got so comfortable that they relatively close to one anothers face, all giggle and laughter gone. Alex brought a slender hand to Olivia cheek and caressed it, Olivia eyes closed involuntary at the contact , relishing Alex soft touch she left her mind gallivant forward and submerge her imagination to how it will feel to kiss those lips, when she realize the her imagination was getting a little two realistic. Gently opening her eyes she realized that she was actually in a lip lock with the blonde and Alex was very active participant. The kiss ended and they separated by mere millimeters, “I’m sorry." Olivia said softly.
“For what?" Alex asked.
“I got carried away Alex I...." Alex put a finger on her lips to stop her for going any father.
“I am not, plus I kissed you back. I have wanted to kiss like forever!" Alex admitted with no sign of regrets.
“Me too." Olivia confessed.
“Well let’s not stop now!" Alex proposed.
“Let’s not." Olivia concurred.
They moved closer once again in a soft slow exploratory kiss that left the both tingling in the most unusual places. They separated because the need for oxygen was vital.
“Liv? Stay with me tonight?"
“Alex... I ... I don't know if thats a good idea." Olivia said regretfully she didn’t want to mess things up by going too fast.
“We can just sleep Liv, I need you close tonight, I want you to hold me." Alex added looking intensely in Olivia brown ones.
“Ok." How can she deny this woman anything?
Alex quietly got up and expended her hand to Olivia who promptly took it and let Alex drag her to the bedroom.
And so they both cuddle up in each other that night and snuggled into one another and give in to the delicious slumber.
