Almost


Chapter 1

"Stabler." Elliot answered busily. He heard sobbing on the other end of the line. "Hello?" He asked again.

"El." Olivia choked.

"Liv? Where are you? What's going on?" He stood and ran to his car, not sure yet where he was headed.

"Please. 2070 Eastchester Road." Olivia whispered before hanging up. She put her head back between her legs.

Elliot got to Eastchester within 5 minutes. He scanned the addresses and finally found it; 2070. He looked up the sign. "What the hell?" He asked himself. He looked around the waiting room but didn't' see her. He decided to check the bathroom since he knew how private she was and she would want to be alone if she were upset. He knocked on the door. "Olivia!" He called.

"Elliot?" She asked shakily, not moving from her position crouched next to the toilet.

"Okay, I'm gonna come in, alright?" He opened the door to the women's room awkwardly. The instant he saw her however, the thought was pushed aside. He knelt next to her and put his hand on her shoulder. She shuddered and fell into his waiting arms.

"Oh Liv, Okay." He held her and rubbed circles on her back. "Did you do it?" He asked.

"I… was… about… to…" She croaked. "I almost…" She ripped herself out of Elliot's arms and leaned over the toilet heaving.

"Shhh, easy." Elliot soothed her. He got up and went the sink where he wet a paper towel with cool water and came back to her. He pressed it to her forehead and flushed the toilet. "Olivia, I'm going to take you home." He said helping her stand. He watched her knees shake and decided he'd better let her hold on to him or she'd fall.

She nodded slightly but her chin still quivered. She was still fighting back emotions. She held on to his arm tight and let him drag her out to his car. She'd taken a bus so she didn't mind the ride.

"Liv, you're pregnant." Elliot stated, not that she didn't know, he just needed to say it and hear what she was thinking.

She nodded but didn't offer an explanation.

"Who?" He asked curiously as he drove.

She put her head back down and the tears started back up.

"Okay, I'm sorry. You don't have to right now, let's just get you home and to bed huh?" He decided not to push it.


A/N: Reviews. Should I continue? Meh. It's from like a year ago so I know it's not that great. :(
