Ever since Elliot Stabler and Olivia Benson reunited after a decade, some Law & Order fans have been wondering: will these two end up together? From the mysterious letter that Elliot wrote for Olivia to his declaration of love, there’s a lot brewing between these former partners. Christopher Meloni revealed whether or not if there’s still hope that Elliot and Olivia will end up in a romantic relationship as Organized Crime heads into season 2 and SVU reaches its 23rd season.

“Sure. Hope springs eternal. I mean, why not? I think it’s going to be a collaborative effort between those showrunners for SVU and OC and I believe with Mariska and I to kind of figure it all out. It’s a complicated relationship, so we’ll see,” Christopher told reporters, including HollywoodLife, during a Television Critics Association panel on September 13.
