Sex with a Stranger... Or Is It? Ch. 02

"AJ," Olivia started to say, but a hand come down over her mouth and stopped her from speaking further.

AJ couldn't let Olivia speak. She was having enough trouble on her own trying to keep this a casual thing. If she'd heard Olivia's words, it would have made things even tougher for her. Olivia calling her Anna made it tough enough. Very few people knew what AJ stood for. Those that did knew better than to call her anything but AJ. Olivia was the only that had ever had the nerve to call her Anna. AJ admitted to herself a long time ago that she loved the way Olivia said her name.

AJ pulled herself up enough to pull the dildo from between her legs. She dropped it on her bag, lay down on the bed, and pulled Olivia around her back. An arm wrapped around her waist as lips kissed the side of her neck.

Olivia knew that AJ didn't want to hear what she had to say. But so many emotions were flooding through her, and she had no idea how to handle any of them. For once in her life, she had found the perfect sexual partner. Someone who not only made her cum but also made her discover all sorts of knew things about herself. Not only that, but Olivia loved the conversations she and AJ had. They agreed on most things, and what they didn't agree on, they at least tried to see the other's point of view. If Olivia didn't know better, she'd have thought she was in love with AJ.

AJ heard the breath that Olivia had just taken. It almost sounded like a breath of surprise, like Olivia had just realized something important. AJ closed her eyes and told herself she would never be that lucky. Olivia was here to do a job, not fall in love and make her life even more difficult. AJ sat up in the bed and pulled the quilt up over them. She turned around and buried her face in Olivia's neck. She took a deep breath of the woman that she had fallen in love with. Even though they could never be together, AJ would always remember their nights together.

Almost an hour later, AJ lay there still awake. Olivia had fallen asleep some time ago, but AJ wanted to make sure she was good and asleep before she slipped out of bed. AJ pulled Olivia's arm up and laid it gently on her hip. She slid backwards and brought her feet down to the floor. She quickly gathered all of her things and slid them back in one side of the bag. Once she was sure she had everything gathered up, she picked up her bag and looked at Olivia who was still wearing the sleeping mask that AJ had put on her. Her beautiful, peaceful face made AJ want to just crawl back in bed with her. But she didn't want to be here when Olivia woke in the morning. If she didn't leave before sunrise, then it was possible that she could be spotted, and she wasn't going to risk her or Olivia's job.

AJ quietly went out into the hall where she quickly got dressed. She made her way back down to the basement where she let herself out through the same window that she had come in. She ran the two blocks to her car and headed home alone.

Monday morning AJ was sitting at her desk, and Olivia was already in her office. Neither one of them had said anything besides the normal good morning, but AJ could see the questions on Olivia's face. AJ had given her a normal smile before turning away and heading to her desk. AJ looked up and saw her partner Jim heading into the squad room.

"Hey AJ, how's that hangover feeling from Saturday night? Do you even know who won the game?" Jim sat a coffee in front of AJ and put the box of donuts between them. He took his seat and looked over at his partner. He wasn't sure what was going on, but he could guess. He'd seen AJ around their new Captain, and she was a totally different person with Captain Miller.

"Jim, you know I don't have a clue who won the game. I was so drunk when it started, I barely even remember you singing the National Anthem, badly at that. Thanks for letting me crash over there, Jim. I appreciate it." AJ took a bite of her donut and turned her chair around. She let her eyes linger just a moment at Olivia who was standing in her doorway listening to their conversation. "Do I owe you, or do you owe me?"

"You owe me a fifty. You're team got their asses beat. It's probably a good thing you were passed out, or we would have had to listen to you scream at the TV all night." Jim took the fifty that AJ slapped down in front of him and slipped into his pocket.

"I'll get that back from you next weekend. You don't have a chance in hell of winning with the team you chose." AJ gave him a wink and turned her chair back around to her desk. She saw the confused look on Olivia's face as she continued to stand there and listen to her and Jim. AJ wasn't sure why, but it gave her a bit of pleasure to see that troubled look on Olivia's face. Maybe if she'd had a say in all of it from the beginning, maybe AJ could accept what they had. But the fact that it all seemed to be a game to Olivia left her feeling a bit hurt and confused. If nothing else, she had a place where she was Saturday night if anyone ever bothered to ask her. She picked up a file and her coffee and headed out to start her day.
