DISCLAIMER: I sadly do not own Law & Order: Special Victims Unit, or it's characters, or anything else affiliated with the franchise. All that belongs to Dick Wolf. The only thing I own, is my own ideas for this story, therefore the only thing I get out of this, would be the pride and joy of people reading this.

A/N: Hey-oh! Please note the A/U! I don't want to have to explain why certain things are the way they are. Just know, a few things are the same, but the ages, and most other things are entirely different from the show. I know some of you will realize I still have my other E/O story (When Worlds Collide) and have no fear, I'll be doing both! This is just a little something I've been thinking about for a couple of days, but wanted to get far enough in W.W.C. to see the reaction of it, as it was my first time writing anything publicly. So far, I'm proud of how it's going, and hoping you'll continue to enjoy it. For anyone that hasn't read it, just know I'll be moving across town in one and a half days, so this first chapter will be it for about a week or so. (Sorry about that!) Anyhow, I'm still thinking of a name this one for sure, so if when you read this one chapter and can think of a fitting name, let me know either in a review or message. Hope you guys enjoy this new story! \-_-/

Rating: M, Language: English, Genre's: Friendship, Family, Romance

Summary: Now that we all know Nick Amaro has left for Cali, Olivia will obviously be needing a new detective -or maybe two- to replace him. What happens when Olivia is told that she has to approve transfers for two applicants that have familiar faces and last name? Will be an E/O story eventually, also very A/U.

CHAPTER ONE: SURPRISES

The newly promoted Lieutenant Olivia Benson, was sitting in her office going through potential applicants to replace Nick Amaro. It pained her, but she completely understood why Nick had chosen to go out to California, she would have done the same thing. Maybe. It'd be harder for her for obvious reasons, but it doesn't matter anyway, she's not the one leaving. There was a knock on her office door and she looked up to see Fin.

"Come on in Fin." she waved him in.

"Ugh, Tucker's here to see ya, I told him I'd make sure you were here first, but just wanted to give ya heads up.. So ugh head's up!" he told her.

"Okay.. Great. Thanks! Send him in I guess." she smiled, but inside she was trying not to freak out, trying to think of why Tucker would be there. She took the lieutenant's exam, and passed fairly easily. The only thing she could think of why he'd be here would be because she hasn't figured out who is going to be the new sergeant. Fin didn't want it, Rollins was still debating it, and Carisi was both still too knew and wouldn't be able to handle law school and being a sergeant even if he did have enough time.

"Hope I'm not interrupting anything Lieutenant Benson." Ed Tucker walked in a black suit, carrying what looked like two manilla files in his left hand.

"No. Not really. Just looking through the applicants to see if I could suggest anyone to you or the guys down at One P.P." Olivia smiled slightly at the older man that seemed to turn a new leaf after her ordeal with Lewis three years ago now.

"Actually that's what I'm here for.. I've got two applicants that the big guys want you to approve their transfers immediately." he held up the two files, then handed them to her. "I wanted to be the first to tell you. And I can't lie, I wanted to see your reaction to them." he smirked at her.

Olivia stared at him for a few minutes, then opened the first folder, and started to read through it. She gasped slightly a few times when reading through it.

Name: Stabler, Elizabeth, C.

Age: 23

Birth Date: 02-21-1992

Birth Mother: Unknown

Birth Father: Unknown

Department Now: Beat Cop

Reasoning for Applying: My adoptive father, Elliot J. Stabler, worked in the Special Victims Unit for most of my life that I remember. His last partner before he left the force, Olivia Benson, inspired me to want to help people like she had.

With her hand covering her mouth Olivia then read through the second file, gasping at about the same times as she did for the previous one.

Name: Stabler, Richard, C.

Age: 23

Birth Date: 02-21-1992

Birth Mother: Unknown

Birth Father: Unknown

Department Now: Narcotics

Reasoning for Applying: My adoptive father, Elliot J. Stabler, worked in the Special Victims Unit for fifteen years. I believe I can make the same contribution and difference.

Olivia finally looked up to see Ed looking at one of the photos that was taken at the small party the squad had thrown the afternoon Noah officially became a Benson. She couldn't help but smile slightly about that day. It had been a whirl wind that's for sure with Johnny D taking the court room bailiffs gun, holding her hostage, shooting the judge in the shoulder, then making a run for it with the bailiff as his hostage. Luckily and unluckily Nick followed him out to the hallway, shot and killed Johnny D, but not before Johnny shot and killed the bailiff and Nick himself was shot in the knee and in the abdomen.

"When was this?" he looked up to see Olivia looking the exact same picture that was in his hand.

"The day I was officially granted the pleasure of being Noah's adoptive mother." she smiled brightly, which then turned into a slight frown, "And the day Amaro officially told me he was leaving to go to California. Four months ago practically, hard to believe isn't it?"

He nodded his head, "I don't know if I've told you this or not, but congratulations on becoming a mother Olivia. At the ripe old age of thirty-seven!" he chuckled.

"A woman never gives her age Ed, you know that." she smirked, but turned serious when she asked him, "I thought Elliot and Kathy Stabler were the biological parents of Elizabeth and Richard?"

"I wish I could answer that question for you. Really, I do, because I want to know the same damn thing. I was always under the impression they were. Anyway, when I was called by the head man down at One P.P. he told me to be expecting two manilla files that held the applications of two people within the next week and to call him when I got them, but not to look in them. Well, it just so happened that he was there in the office building when I got them. I called him up immediately, he came up, told me that these two would take the one spot that was open, not to ask questions, just to be sure that it was done, and it be done quickly. So, here I am, a day later, in your office telling you that this needs to be done and done quickly. As in this needs to take top priority over everything else work related, except a case. Including figuring out who your second in line will be." he had finally sat down in one of the chairs in front of her desk.

"Okay.. Since I'll be leaving in like half an hour, I'll call in to their Captain's tomorrow morning first thing. Do either of them know that I'm going to be their boss if they get the job? Or even know that they both applied for it since they are in different precincts?" she asked him.

"Please make sure it gets done, otherwise I'm going to get the heat because I told them I'd make sure you got the message. And Lieutenant, it's not a matter of if they get the job, it's a matter of when do they start the job. The big guys have already approved of it, they just wanted you to have a quick heads up, and you make the call to their Captain's. This way it doesn't sound like they're playing favorites. I couldn't tell you if they knew the other also applied. Again, I was told to make sure it was done quickly and not to ask any questions. Trust me, I was every bit as surprised as you were when I read their names. I didn't even know they had joined the force. I'm going to leave, so call me when you get the chance tomorrow. Preferably right after you get done approving their transfer requests from their Captains. Also, don't tell anyone who the newbies will be yet. Tell them that two detectives will be taking the empty spot and the fill in guy out there spots if they ask. And you'll discuss when they'll start with their Captain's, but please tell me first. I'd let them introduce themselves, though I think Detective Tutuola will recognize at least one of them or they'll recognize him. By the way, it was good seeing you again Olivia. Remember, you're the same rank as me now, I can't try to screw your career anymore without screwing my own." he winked, stood up, and walked out of her office.

She just numbly nodded. He hadn't shut her door all the way, so she heard him say goodbye to the others as he walked out, but nobody replied to him. Instead, they just watched him leave the squad room. When their superior officer hadn't exited her office after ten minutes, everyone looked around trying to decide what to do. It was a slow Tuesday evening, closing in on 7:00 PM fairly quickly and they knew Olivia left no later than 7:05 most nights unless their was a case. Though she was now a Lieutenant, she still acted if she was still a detective, which earned her high praise among her squad and even a majority of her bosses down at One Police Plaza.

"I'm going to head out a little early tonight guys, don't stay too late. Though you know the standard, if you need me, call me." Olivia announced walking out of her office with the two files Tucker had brought her, and locking the door.

"Everything okay Liv?" Fin asked her with a worried glance.

"Ugh.. Yeah. Just been a long day, and I miss Noah." she wanted to just get out of there, but didn't want to be rude and just walk away.

"I call bullshit Lieutenant on the long day. We only had that quick case this morning, that even Barba said will be a quick prosecute." Carisi spoke up.

"I just want to get home to my son okay?! Am I not allowed to do that tonight? Damn it, I'm the one in charge here, not any of you, so if you have a problem with me, take it up with IAB or 1PP!" she yelled, gaining the attention of nearly everyone in the bullpen. She didn't wait for a reply from any of them, she just stormed out, making her way to the elevator swiftly.

"What just happened?" Amanda asked what everyone was thinking.

Fin shook his head, "I don't know, but I'll try to figure it out. She's obviously stressed about something, just- just I don't know, make sure everything is in order. I'm going to go see if I can catch her on the way down." he ran out of the squad room.

"Why doesn't he just take the Sergeants exam already? He'd pass with flying colors!" Amanda chuckled shaking her head walking back to her desk.

Fin, just barely catches the elevator before it closes all the way, and Olivia is there with her eyes closed, trying not to cry. Fin see's a lone tear escape her eye, before she quickly wiped it away and opened her eyes. "What do you want Fin?" she snapped.

Before answering he hit the STOP button in the elevator.

"Are you fucking crazy Fin?" she shrieked. "I want to get home to Noah. That's it. Now get this elevator going or I'll pull your rank. Don't make me do it Fin, I need somebody to help keep me sane when they come." she whispered.

"They? When they come? Don't tell me you're going all John Munch on me now. And I'll take my chances with you. You were fine until Ed fuckin Tucker walked in your office for fifteen minutes, then walked out like everything was just peachy. What's going on baby girl?" he asked her with genuine concern. This wasn't the Olivia Benson he knew. At any point in the past sixteen years since he transferred from narcotics.

"I'm not supposed to tell you guys.." she breathed.

"Liv, something is bothering you. I'm not asking as your co-worker, I'm asking as your friend, now what is wrong? I don't care if you aren't supposed to tell us, you can tell me." he whispered back to her.

She just shook her head, "Not here. Go." she took a deep breath, "-go tell them that you're leaving for the night to try to talk to me at my apartment. I'm going to go ahead home. I'll see you in a little while."

"Are you going to be okay to drive?" he asked her honestly.

"What? Of course I'm okay to drive Fin! It's not like I've been drinking or I'm high on something! Just go before I change my mind to tell you."

He held up his hands in surrender, "I'm just worried about you is all. I'll be at your apartment in an hour. Whatever it is, don't stress too much about it, I'll help you with whatever it is, okay?"

Olivia nodded, "Thank you Fin. I appreciate it a lot. Just don't tell the squad you caught up with me, please?"

"Anytime Liv, you know that. I appreciate you willing to tell me. See you in an hour." with that he turned the elevator back on, and pressed the open doors button, and walked back into the bullpen with all eyes on him.
