"Liv?!" asked Alex, her voice full of concern. "Over here. Help me. Please." Olivia said, her voice shaking. "Oh my God! We need to get you to a hospital right now!" said Alex, sounding very scared for her best friend that was 9 months pregnant, laying on the bathroom floor. "Where are the kids and Elliot?" "The kids are with Casey. Elliot got called in." Olivia said. "I'll call him. We need to get you to a hospital. The ambulance is on the way. Wait, Liv, did you just get out of the shower?" Alex questioned noticing the floor was wet. "No! Shit, my water broke! Help me!" Olivia yelled in pain. Alex helped her friend up. They heard the ambulance coming up the block.
Olivia was in the delivery room. She started to remember the events of earlier. She looked around and had a mini-heart attack. There was no sign of Elliot anywhere. "Where is he?!" Olivia screamed. "Shhh. Liv, its okay, he's on his way." Alex assured her she came into her room. "Mrs. Stabler. You are ready for delivery." said a nurse. "I can't do this without him." Olivia cried with a single tear sliding down her cheek. "Yes you can, Liv. I'm right here with you. I won't go anywhere. He is gonna be here any minute. Lets do this so he can see how strong you were without him." Alex pleaded.
"Okay. Ms. Cabot, may you please sit behind her and hold her up? We need to get this going because I can already see the head crowning." "Lets do this!" said Alex. Olivia laughed softly at her friend's enthusiasm. "On the next contraction I need you to push, okay Olivia?" "I don't care. Lets just get this over with!" Olivia yelled. " Her contraction came. Olivia yelled out in pain and pushed with all of her strength. "C'mon. One more big push, Liv." encouraged Alex. Olivia closed her eyes and pushed for the last time. (for this baby(; ) Olivia heard her daughter's cries and opened her eyes. Alex cut the umbilical cord. "It's a girl." smiled Alex "She's beautiful, Liv." Olivia smiled proudly as her daughter was placed into her arms.
*Two minutes later*
"Liv, one more time." "Uggh." Olivia whined "Ready Alex?" "Absolutely. I've been waiting!" Alex smiled cheerfully. Olivia dearly loved her best friend that would always brighten her day or make her smile no matter what mood either of them was in. they had their ups and downs but they still had an unbreakable bond. "Push!" said the doctor. Three pushes and many tears later Olivia and Alex had her the cries of the little boy. "Liv! Olivia!" they heard yells coming from the hallways. Olivia looked up and found Elliot standing there with tears in his eyes. "Would you like the cut the umbilical cord, daddy?" asked Alex. "Wouldn't give it up for the world" smiled Elliot. He cut the umbilical cord and looked at Olivia. Olivia and Alex each had a bundle in their arms. Alex, pink and Olivia, blue.
"Hey." Olive smiled at Elliot. "Hi. Sorry I couldn't-" Elliot started but was cut off by Olivia. "It's okay. I had Alex with me." Olivia said. "Still. I should've been here for you guys." Elliot said sounding upset with himself. "Mrs. Stabler, we need names for the birth certificates." Smiled a nurse that was standing at the foot of Olivia's bed. "Elisse Alexandra Stabler" smiled Alex proudly, "Alex. Next time, can I say my baby's name?" joked Elliot. "Right." Alex said and blushed slightly. "Okay. So we have Elisse Alexandra Stabler. May you spell it for me please? I want to make sure I get it right." smiled the nurse. They were all quiet. Olivia and Elliot stared at Alex. "What?" Alex asked confused. "Well, I thought that you were going to take over naming our daughter." said Olivia. "Nope. All yours." Alex said and then pulled a piece of her long blonde hair behind her ear. "Okay." smiled Olivia. The three of them started to laugh slightly together. "E-L-I-S-S-E A-L-E-X-A-N-D-R-A S-T-A-B-L-E-R." Olivia smiled proudly and looked up at Elliot. He smiled back at her and placed a kiss on her forehead. "I love you" he whispered into her ear. "I love you, too." she smiled.
"And, your son's name?" asked the nurse. "Daniel Anthony Stabler" smiled Elliot. "One 'L' or two?" asked the nurse. "Just one." smiled Alex. The four of them laughed again. "Sorry!" replied Alex. "Ah, Alex. Gotta love you!" smiled Olivia. "Obviously. How could you possibly not love me?" Alex smirked. "God. Not you too!" Olivia sighed very dramatically. "What do you mean?" Alex questioned. "You and Elliot are both very cocky. Why am I surrounded by cocky people in my life?!" Olivia joked. "Doesn't matter why. You still love us." smiled Elliot. "Yeah, you're right. I do love both of you." Olivia blushed. Elliot and Alex stood there with their mouths open. "Did she just say that we were right?!" asked Alex very cautiously. "Yeah." replied Elliot shortly, still open-mouthed. "So Liv, how did those words taste coming out of your mouth?" joked Elliot. "Like vinegar." replied Olivia. She started to play with her son as he woke up. She pushed the blanket out of his face and he reached up and grabbed onto her finger.
As he slowly opened his eyes, Olivia and Alex yelled "Stabler" at the same time. Daniel had crystal blue eyes just like his father. He had Olivia's lips. Olivia smiled as her son made noises and spit-bubbles with his mouth. Olivia laughed at her son. "Gosh, he's already like his daddy and brother." Alex laughed. "I can absolutely see the resemblance" "Mrs. Stabler, you have visitors" smiled the nurse standing at the door. "Send 'em in." Olivia smiled. The nurse moved from the door. "Mommy!" screamed their three-year old from her older-brother's arms. "Hey baby!" Olivia greeted her daughter with a bright smile.
"I'm not a baby, silly mommy. She's the baby!" Aliyah stated, pointing at her new sister. "Mommy?" she asked. "Yeah sweetie?" "Why are there two babies?" Aliyah questioned looking very confused. They all laughed a little. "You have a little sister and a little brother." Elliot told his daughter. "Can I name them?!" asked Aliyah excitedly. "Well, Auntie Alex pretty much took care of that already. Didn't you, Alex?" Alex sighed and turned bright pink. "Yeah. I did." "What did you name them?" asked Britney, their nine-year old daughter. "This is Elisse Alexandra Stabler." Olivia said as she picked up her tiny daughter. "She is so cute!" said Britney. "She looks so much like mommy." Olivia and Elliot just smiled at their daughter's fascination with her new baby sister. "What's his name?" asked Calvin. "Daniel Anthony Stabler!" Alex smiled. They all looked at her. "I'm sorry! I couldn't help myself!" "I think she is more excited then we are!" joked Calvin. "I think so too." Agreed Britney. "Okay, okay. I am a little excited." Alex admitted. "A little?" Olivia asked raising her eyebrow. "Okay. More like really excited!"
"Can I hold him?" asked Calvin admiring his little brother. "Sure." Elliot replied as he placed his son in his brother's arms. "Hey Daniel. I'm your big brother. Thank god I have you because I need as much help as I can get rebelling against the girls." Calvin joked as he played with his brother's small fingers. Olivia watched as her son held his little brother. It looked so perfect. Olivia noticed that her daughter was breathing funny. "Guys, quiet down for a second please." She asked as she puled her daughter closer to her. They heard the little girl breathing loudly and not normally. Olivia started to get really nervous. "Alex, can you see if you can find a nurse in the hallway for me?" "Sure." "Thanks." The nurse came back with Alex about five minutes later. "Is everything alright?" she asked with a smile. "I'm not sure." replied Olivia worriedly. "What's wrong?" "My daughter seems to be breathing funny" "Would you mind if I take her to the nursery so she can be examined by a doctor?" "No problem. Here you go." Olivia replied sadly as she placed her tiny baby in the nurse's arms.
"Are you okay?" asked Elliot noticing the concerning look on his wife's face. "Yeah. Just thinking." she sighed. "She's gonna be fine. There is nothing to worry about." He assured her, holding onto her hand. "I hope she is." Olivia sighed.
