Ok, before I start. I want to say that I own nothing in this story. It all belongs to Dick Wolf and NBC.
And the next thing that I have to say is that this is my first story, so please be nice. lol. I'm not that good with grammer and spelling, but I'll try my best. Also, the characters may seem a little out of character but, hey it's my story right? So enough of my rambling please enjoy...
The sound of the phone ringing is what jolted Olivia Benson out of bed. She looked at the clock and saw that it was 3:15 in the morning.
'Just great.' she thought to herself. She picked up her cell phone and pressed it to her ear.
"Benson" She said into the phone, holding back a yawn
"Olivia, it's Cragen. There was a reported attack by 26 year old female, Jesse Morrison. Says her boyfriend attacked her. She's down at Mercy General Hospital. I need you and Elliot to go down there and get her statement." Captain Cragen told her
"Ok." She said as she rose out of the comfort of her warm bed. "Is Elliot meeting me there?"
"No, I haven't called him. I'll let you handle that." Cragen said
"Ok, we'll be at the precinct later." Olivia said as she hung up with Cragen. She dialed a number she had memorized and waited for him to answer.
"Stabler" said the voice on the other end.
"Hey, Elliot. We got a case at Mercy hospital. So do you need me to pick you up or what?" Olivia asked as she was getting dressed.
"Yea, i'll be ready in 10." He said as he hung up on her. She shook her head in disbelief. Things haven't been good between them since his separation from his wife. And ever since she came back for Oregon, it's gotten worse. They didn't even talk unless it was about a case. She finished getting ready and in about 10 minutes she was ready to go. She grabbed her coat and keys and headed out the door.
Mercy General Hospital
4:02 A.M
The duo walked up to the receptionist desk.
"Hello, Can I help you two?" The perky clerk asked
"I'm detective Stabler; this is my partner detective Benson." Elliot said gesturing between himself and Olivia.
"What can I do for you detectives?" She asked. Elliot rolled his eyes; it was too early for her to be so damn perky. Olivia saw his annoyance with the woman so she stepped in.
"We are here to see Jesse Morrison, she reported a rape." Olivia told her. The clerk looked on the clip board.
"Ok, Jesse Morrison is in room 217. Rape kit is already done." So told them "Room 217 is all the way down the hall, and then go to-"
"We know how to get there." Elliot interrupted her and made his way down the hall. Olivia offered the woman a sympathetic smile before following her partner.
"Hey, I know it's early, but could you stop being a jerk." Olivia said once she caught up with him. "What's gotten into you lately?"
"Can we not do this now? We have a job to do." with that, Elliot walked up to the room and knocked on the door, Olivia following behind him.
"So what do we have?" Cragen asked as the detectives sat at their desks
"Jesse said that her boyfriend came over last night. They got into an argument, he hits her and slams her into the wall and rapes her." Olivia said reading from her notes.
"Ok, what's the boyfriends' name?" Cragen asked
"Marshall Knightly, 29 year old. Jesse said she scratched him pretty good, so have his DNA." Elliot told him.
"Alright, go pick him up." Cragen said
"Already done, Munch and Fin are in interrogation room 3 with him." Olivia said. With that, Cragen walked back to the interrogation room to watch Munch and Fin.
"I'm glad this is an open and close case." Olivia said "He didn't even ask for a lawyer."
"Yea. I wish they were all that easy." Elliot said giving her a small smile. It was the first time in about 2 weeks that they seemed to be on the same page. They sat in silence as they finished up their paper work.
"You wanna go grab something to eat?" He asked as he grabbed his coat.
"Sure." She said, also grabbing her coat. "I'll go tell Cragen and I'll meet you at the car."
She walked up to Cragen who was still watching the interrogation.
"Hey Captain, Elliot and I are going to get lunch. Is that ok?" She asked
"Yea, I we get a case, I'll call you." He said still watching Munch and Fin. Olivia walked out of the pricent and into the waiting car.
"So where are we going?" Olivia asked
"Where do we always go Liv?" Elliot said simply. Olivia laughed a little; she should have known where they were going.
"The Diner." She said
"Exactly" Once they got there, they sat in their usual booth. Neither one knew what to say.
"So...what are you having?" Elliot asked, but before she could answer, the waitress walked over to them.
"Well, well, well. If it isn't my two favorite detectives." She said to them
"Hi Dana." Both Elliot and Olivia said.
"Haven't seen you in a while, and I love what you have done to your hair." Dana said
"Thank you." Olivia said, self consciously touching her hair.
"Hey, don't get shy on me. You look great. Elliot, doesn't your partner look good." Elliot choaked on the water he was drinking and Olivia blushed a little.
"Yea." He said quickly
"So are you having your usual?" Dana asked, preparing to write on the notepad.
"The usual for me." Elliot said
"I'll have my usual, but instead of the sprite, can I have an iced tea." Olivia said
"Sure." Dana said as she collected the menus and went to get their drinks.
"You're really serious about that?" Elliot said
"Serious about what?" Olivia asked
"No coffee, no soda. Next thing I know, you'll be a vegetarian." Elliot laughed
"Elliot, do you know how many parasites are in-"
"I don't wanna know. I like meat and no matter what you say, I will continue to eat it." Elliot laughed
"Ok fine, I won't tell you." Olivia said as Dana gave them their drinks, and placed their food down in front of them.
"Ok, a cheeseburger and fries for you." Dana said, placing the plate in front of Elliot.
"And grilled cheese for you." She said to Olivia. She placed their drinks in front of them and walked away.
"So your telling me you don't miss this." Elliot said lifting his Pepsi and drinking it.
"At first I did. I thought I would die without coffee. But I got used to it. After about a month, my hair started growing and I realized I couldn't color my hair."
"Oh, the torture you must have been through." Elliot mocked. "So where were you anyway?"
"Oregon" she said taking a sip of her iced tea.
"Wow, I figured you weren't in New York. But Oregon?" He said. "So they didn't have phones there?"
Olivia looked up from her food and looked at him.
"Excuse me?" Olivia said
"A phone? Did they have computers in Oregon? Cell phones, text messaging?" Elliot said raising his voice a little.
"What are you talking about? I was working a case Elliot, I was undercover." Olivia said in the same tone he used.
"Yea, and Alex was in witness protection, but she still let us know she was ok. You just picked up and left." Elliot said
"You think I wanted to go. To leave my job, my friends and my stuff behind" Olivia said rasing her voice even more. Not caring that people were now starting to look at the two.
"You sure as hell didn't act like you didn't want to go. A phone call Liv, that's all it would have taken for you to let us know you were ok." Elliot said.
"I couldn't, I would have had my cover blown." Olivia said
"Oh, but that didn't stop you from calling Fin. And then when you came back, you didn't even tell me you were back." Elliot said. The people in the Diner stopped eating and had all of their attention on the couple
"I came back the day after I got back from Oregon. I came to see you and the guys to try to explain what happend. But you and your precious girlfriend Dani, didn't seem to mind that I was gone.
"What are you talking about?" Elliot asked
"I'm talking about you taking your tongue out of her mouth long enough to realize that I was even there." Olivia said. Elliot just looked at her.
"I was there. Casey called and said that you guys were there having drinks and that I should come. Well, wasn't I surprised when I got there you and her were playing suck face."
"So you didn't come back because your jealous of Dani?" Elliot said
"No, I'm not jealous. Just don't make it seem as if I didn't care about the way you guys felt when I left. You have no idea what I went through to prove that I was Persephone. You don't know that I hated almost every minute that I was there because I didn't feel like I was home. I didn't leave for me to come back and our partnership be worse than before." Olivia said
"Well maybe you shouldn't have come back." Elliot said. But as soon as the words left his mouth he regreted it. Before he could say anything, he felt a sharp pain on his cheek. For a small person, she packed one hell of a swing
"You sonofabitch." She said. She took money out of her pocket and threw it down on the table, and walked out of the diner.
Olivia took a cab back to the precinct and arrived the same time Elliot did.
"Olivia." Elliot called out to her, but she ignored him and walked faster. He finally caught up with her when they reached the squad room's door.
"Liv." He said grabbing her arm. She yanked her arm out of his grasp as Fin walked up to them.
"Hey Liv, is everything aight?" Fin asked giving them a weird look.
"Everything is fine." Olivia said
"Ok. Hey, there's a guy here who was looking for you." Fin said "He's at your desk now."
Olivia, Fin and Elliot all walked into the squad room. She saw a man looking at the photo's that she had on her desk. "I'm detective Benson, can I help you?" Olivia asked waiting for the man to turn around. Once he did, she was shocked at who she saw.
"Benny?" She asked
"The one and only." Benny said as he pulled her into a tight hug.
"God, I haven't seen you in so long. Your all grown up." Olivia laughed. Benny was her best friend in high school. They started dating their senior year. But had to break up because he was moving to another state.
"I'm not the only one." He said looking her body up and down after they pulled away.
"I thought you moved to Arizona after high school, what are you doing back in New York?" She asked
"My sister said that you two kept in touch for a while. I had some vacation time, so I thought why not come see my girl." Benny said "So are you gonna introduce me to the people staring at us." Olivia looked away from Benny and noticed that Munch, Fin, Elliot and a few other people were watching them
"Right, sorry. Guy's this is Benjamin Anderson. Benny this is John Munch and his partner Fin." Olivia said gesturing to Munch and Fin. Benny shook both of their hands
"And this is Elliot Stabler." She said quickly pointing in Elliot's direction. Elliot shook his had and sat down at his desk. Trying to figure out who this guy was. Was he her boyfriend, or friend. But he was also trying to figure out is why he cared who Olivia was with. It wasn't like Liv was his girlfriend. He looked at Olivia, she was staring at that Benny guy while he talked to Munch and Fin. He didn't see what she saw in him. Sure he was model handsome, but looks only run so deep. He was torn out of his thought by Fin trying to get his attention
"What?" Elliot asked
"If you were staring any harder at Liv, I think you were trying to see through her shirt." Fin laughed
"What are you talking about?" Elliot said as he looked around. He noticed that Olivia and her 'friend' was gone.
"They left while you were in la la land." Munch said
"Oh." Elliot said. 'I guess I'll just talk to her tomorrow' he thought. "Where did they go?" Elliot asked
"Liv went to see if she could take a half day." Munch said. Olivia came back out with Benjamin following behind her.
"I'll see you guys tomorrow." Olivia said as Benny helped her into her coat.
"He's letting you go?" Fin asked
"Yea. I told you I'm his favorite."Olivia said, the rest nodded in agreement knowing that Liv was in fact Cragen's favorite.
"It was nice metting you all." Benny said as she shook hands with each of them again, before taking Olivia's hand in his and walking out of the precinct.
