DISCLAIMER
Dick Wolf owns, I covet. Not mine. Don't sue. But I wouldn't mind some clones.
"You are cordially invited to the matrimonial union of
Elliot James Stabler
And
Olivia Jane Benson
Our Lady of Mercy Chapel
4:00 pm
Reception at the Rosemary Ballroom
Feel free to bring a guest, please RSVP."
That all seemed like a blur to the couple. They had been engaged for four months now, and it was finally time to marry. Olivia agreed to be married in a Catholic church for Elliot, and she surprised him by having his kids agree to be there. Kathy wouldn't, but he expected that.
Elliot was in a room with Cragen, John and Fin. They rented tuxes again, and were simply waiting for Adam to tell them when it was time.
"Congratulations, Elliot." Cragen said. The others murmured in agreement.
He smiled. "Thanks. This was a long time coming."
"Yeah, it was." John smiled. He grabbed hands with Fin, remembering their own 'wedding'.
Adam came in. "Time to make your appearance. The bride's almost ready."
Olivia was in a satin and lace wedding gown with Casey and Serena Southerlyn. She looked absolutely stunning.
"I hope you two are very happy." Serena said, beaming at her.
"I know we will be." Olivia smiled. "I know we will be."
Adam knocked on the door. "Come in."
He made a bow to the ladies. "Ready?"
Olivia sighed and let the girls lead her out.
A chorus of 'Here Comes the Bride' started as Olivia walked up on Cragen's arm, before going to stand by Elliot. The groomsmen were on one side, the bridesmaids on the other. Elliot took Olivia's hands.
The priest nodded and began to speak. "Dear friends, we are here to join Mr. Elliot Stabler, and Miss Olivia Benson, in holy matrimony…"
As the priest spoke, John leaned in. "Remember when we got hitched?"
Fin sighed. "Like it was yesterday…"
He grabbed his hand and watched as the vows began.
"Elliot Stabler. Do you promise to love, respect, and cherish Olivia, for richer, for poorer, in sickness, and in health, till death do you part?"
Elliot turned to him. "Actually, can we leave that part out?" He smiled. "I have a feeling we'll be together longer than that."
Everyone who wasn't already in tears broke down at that point. Olivia smiled at him lovingly. "Very well. Do you, Elliot?"
"I do."
"And do you, Olivia Benson, promise to love, respect, and cherish Elliot, for richer for poorer, in sickness, and in health?"
She nodded. "I do."
"The rings please."
Cragen and Casey handed them their rings. They slid them on each other's fingers and sighed happily.
"Now, by the power vested through God and the love between these two people, I pronounce you to be husband and wife. You may kiss the bride."
Elliot and Olivia melted into a sweet kiss as everyone cheered. They separated after what seemed like ages and headed to the reception.
They had the first dance to 'In Ammorata'. Casey and Adam danced to 'I Love You (For Sentimental Reasons)" By Linda Ronstadt. John and Fin had a dance to 'I Don't Wanna Miss a Thing' By Aerosmith.
Cragen made a toast. "To my detectives! They finally admitted what they knew all along." He withdrew an envelope from his coat pocket and handed it to them. "I have a surprise for the bride and groom, as well as the rest of my staff."
Elliot opened it. "Oh my God…" He breathed. Plane tickets to Florida.
"I juggled the schedules for you, Liv, Huang, Munch, and Fin. You'll be staying at the beach. Enjoy your honeymoon."
Olivia hugged him and Elliot did too. They were looking forward to this…
Two days later, they were off the plane and in Florida. Elliot and Olivia, John and Fin, George and Steven, and Casey and Adam were reserved to stay in a house not to far from the Languash beach.
Elliot whistled as they entered the house. "This is nice."
"Cragen really came through for us."
Fin grinned. "Anyone up for some sun?"
They all readily agreed to that, and donned their sunscreen and swimsuits for some beach action…
They halted in their tracks as they approached the fence.
"Oh…" Elliot began.
"My…" Olivia continued.
"God." Fin finished.
It was a nudist beach.
They met in the washroom and discussed. "Should we see if there's another beach?"
John shrugged. "Why don't we just go nude? When in Rome."
They turned to him, knowing he'd shown himself in the past.
"We're all comfortable with each other, we trust each other." John continued. "I mean, we've been in the locker room together, right?"
They shrugged. "It might be fun." Fin agreed.
They came to the agreement that they only lived once, and this might be an…interesting experience.
Elliot came out first, followed by Olivia. She noticed ladies gazing at him with lustful eyes. She kissed him passionately and staked her claim.
Next was Casey, followed by Adam. They looked a little nervous, but nonetheless well-endowed.
Fin exited next. They couldn't help but stare. Fin smirked. "Surprised?"
Next were Huang and Steven, who went to grab some ice cream.
And finally, John. Olivia really had reason to stare. "You've been holding out on me." She said without thinking. She blushed.
John laughed and put an arm around Fin. "I think this muscle makes up for my bony ass."
They laid down some blankets and tried to relax. Elliot noticed waves forming.
"C'mon, let's go swimming!"
The water was warm, so they all got in. They even had a few games of volleyball. They went back to the house soaked but happy.
