Olivia smiled back at Mike, bringing up her free hand to trace the red mark that marred his face.<em>That laugh, I've missed that so much,</em>she thought to herself as she heard his chuckle. She moved her hand down and placed it on his chest, feeling the steady rhythm of his heart beat.<br/><br/><br/><em>He promised</em>, she thought to herself and she believed it. They had been through too much, and been apart for too long to let this go. She needed him, and she knew that he needed her. She kissed him back, the first time, it was more of a 'hello', but the second was much more. Long, passionate, and full of heat, she kissed him back with every fiber of her being.<br/><br/>As he pulled away, she felt herself wanting more, but he was right. She wiped away her tears, careful not to smudge her make-up and gave him a nod. They had to figure out why the world had stopped, and to what extent. Olivia gave him a reassuring smile, but her thoughts were still on that kiss. "Sure, but as soon as everything is right again, I'm taking full advantage of you." She gave him a wicked smile and pushed herself against him, her body warm against his. She kissed him on the neck, breathing lightly in his ear as she spoke. "We need to make up for lost time." She pulled away and winked at him, squeezing his hand as she started to walk around.
