"Liv?" Elliot called from outside her apartment door. "It's Elliot, open up." When nobody answered, he took out his key and let himself in."Hey Liv, where are

you?" He pushed her bedroom door open. "Liv?" She was still in bed, covers pulled over her head. He walked to her side, and shook her gently. "Liv, time to get up,

Cragen will have both our asses if we're late. Again." She moaned, and opened her eyes groggily. She looked terrible; her eyes were ringed with dark circles, and her skin

was ghostly pale. Elliot looked at her in concern,"Olivia...are you okay?" She rubbed her eyes wearily and looked at her clock. She jolted when she saw the time.

"Damnit! How can it be this late already?" She struggled out of bed, only to collapse after a couple steps. Elliot caught her in his arms. "Hey, Liv, get back into bed, okay?

I'll tell Cragen you're sick, just take a couple days off; I know these last couple cases have been rough." Groaning disgustedly at her own weakness, she fell back against the

pillows. "I hate being sick." Laughing, he brushed her hair tenderly back from her face. Embarrassed at the show of emotion, he quickly cleared his throat and stood up to

leave. "Take care of yourself, okay? I'll be back to visit later." He arrived at the precinct 15 minutes later, barely escaping getting yelled at for being late. Before he could

even sit down, Cragen called his name."Stabler!" Mentally bracing himself for a lecture of getting to work on time, he walked into his Captain's office. "Yeah, Cap?"

"Just thought you should know there's a new case. Rape and murder of a 15 year old girl, dumped in a car, Olivia's at the crime scene." Elliot shook his head in confusion.

"I was just at Olivia's apartment, she's so sick she can barely stand, let alone work a case." "...What?" Before anything else could be said, a familiar voice called out,

"Hi, I'm looking for a Detective Stabler?" Exchanging a look of confusion with his Captain, Elliot walked out of the office and saw Olivia, dressed casually rather than for

work "Liv?" She looked at him suspiciously."How do you know my name?" "Of course I know your name; we've been partners for 9 years now." "Excuse me?"

"Liv, cut the crap, I'm not in the mood for this right now." She shot him an icy look. "Look, I don't know who you are! I've never seen you before in my life. I came here to

report a possible rape, not pretend to be friendly with some whacko detective who thinks I'm his partner!" Seeing the anger flared up behind her eyes, Elliot warily said

"Why don't we step over here, and you tell me about this rape." Her eyes narrowed at him,"Alleged rape." "...Right." He pointed to the chair across from him, and

crossed his arms over his chest. She sat down elegantly, back perfectly straight and hands folded across her lap. "So tell me about this..alleged rape." "My

mother, Serena Benson, was raped by an unknown man a long time ago. She got pregnant with me. I think the man who fathered me is still out there, raping women." "Are

you sure it's your father?" "Yes." "How?" "Because, a couple of days ago, an anonymous letter was left on my doorstep. No address or name, but it said 'Hey,

congratulations, you've got yourself a new baby brother." Elliot frowned. "Is this the first letter you've gotten?" "Yes." Elliot paused before he slowly said, "Why don't

you stay here for a couple of minutes." He walked out to go find Cragen.
