Thank you for your wonderful reviews, your follows and favorites!

A/N: This chapter is from three a four years ago. Before i got to busy with life and didnt update anymore, and before deleting my old account and starting over here.

Someone 'asked' me why I only update once a month, I chose for this because im very busy, making lot of hours at work and in the weekend I'm also completely booked with stuff i need to do. so once a month is the best I can do for now. sorry.


Elliot walked into Olivia her hospital room, they arrived there hours ago and they sedated her right away due to her injuries. Elliot just left the room to grab some coffee before she would wake up. Her room was empty, the others from the squad went back to the station to do paperwork and told Elliot to call them when she was awake. He sighed as he looked at her, he never had her seen this way, so fragile, beaten up and hurt. He know she was raped but he couldn't think about that now. He needed to stay strong for her, she couldn't see him hurt. Inside he was glad that Nick killed the bastard when he tried to catch him, he knew that he would have done it otherwise. Elliot took a sip of his hot hospital coffee that just tasted like ditchwater. He took her hand in his and stroked it with his thumb, waiting for her to wake up.

A couple more hours passed and Elliot woke up by someone calling his name softly. He slowly opened his eyes, remembering where he was and why he was there before noticing that Olivia was awake. He smiled at her "Hey, how are you doing?" He asked her as he stroked her hand, he wanted to place a kiss on her cheek but he was to afraid that she would get scared so he didn't.

Olivia's voice croaked when she tried to speak, her throat was still very dry from the intubating tube that they got out just moments before. Elliot shushed her and handed her the glass of water and helped her drink through a straw "you don't need to talk if it hurts to much" he told her with a assuring smile.

"Thank you" Olivia said softly, before starting to tremble and before she knew it tears were escaping her eyes. Olivia wasn't a person who would cry easily but she couldn't control it this time, she didn't want to admit it but she was broken.

"Oh Liv" Elliot said before getting up and hugging her. When he did Olivia froze for a moment, pushing him away. Then she took a look in his eyes and she pulled him back to her, hugging him and laying her head onto his shoulder. Elliot felt like her save haven, she knew she could trust him with her live, even though he left her two years ago and hurt her by doing that.

When Olivia stopped sobbing they moved apart and Elliot smiled at her, whipping a strand of hair out of her face "I'm here for you" He said, knowing that he should have been there the last two years. He always brought her home, made sure that she was save inside. It was just something that he did and he knew not all partners would do that, but deep inside he hoped that Nick had been a partner like that, then maybe she would have been save, they would have found Lewis together. He sighed, knowing that overthinking it didn't change the fact that it all happened and it couldn't be changed, they couldn't rewind the time back.

"Thank you" Olivia said, giving him a small smile "I've missed you so much!" She said as she sighed content, happy to have him by her side. "I forgive you" she said softly,and she noticed Elliot his eyes tear up. she coudn't be mad with Elliot, even if she wanted to.

Elliot blinked his eye "I've missed you too, and you shouldn't forgive me that easily, I left, that was wrong" He told her as she lay back in the bed, still in pain and tired.

"I bet you had a good reason to leave me like that" she stated, knowing explanations would come later, knowing she had only two questions she needed to ask him now "Did Nick catch him? How long was I out?" she asked while fidgeting with her fingers

Elliot took her hand in his "you were out for almost a day, they sedated you because of your injuries" he said, while not trying to break down, seeing her in this bed, so broken hurt him so much, a hundred times more than walking in on Kathy cheating on him. He comforted himself with the thought that she would be fine eventually and that he was there for her in the meantime to help her get her live back on track. "And as for Lewis, Nick shot the bastard, he is dead so don't worry about that anymore, you are save" He told her while placing a kiss on her forehead "I promised that I would call the squat when you were awake, are you fine by yourself for a moment?"

Olivia nodded a yes and Elliot walled out the room, she sighed and hated her emotions when some more tears escaped her eyes. Crying she fell asleep some minutes later.


Three days had passed and finally the day came that Olivia could go home, the last couple days had been rough but Elliot stayed by her side all the time, he only went home to get changed and to catch up some sleep when he knew someone else was by her side. He got to know Nick better in the same time and they found out that they could get along very well, both wanting the same for Olivia.

A day earlier Cassidy showed up but Olivia told him that they were over, partly blaming him for what happened. Knowing that if he had shown up that evening everything could have been different, he could have saved her. But that wasn't the only reason of their break-up, their relation was already falling apart before it happened, and they both knew it. The trust was gone.

Elliot stopped the car in front of her apartment building, he got the keys out the ignition and turned to face Olivia, taking his hand in his "Are you sure you are ready?" he asked, still thinking it's a bad idea for her to go back into that building

Olivia took a deep breath before looking up at him "I'm as ready as I ever will be" she said before opening the door and leaving the car.

Together they walked into the building, Elliot holding Olivia's hand in his while his other hand supported her broken ribs, making sure he was gently and not hurting her. In total silence they arrived at her door.

Olivia held the key in her hand, while she stared at the door, fear creeping in, her heartbeat going harder and faster as if her heart was going to explode or jump right out her chest at that moment. She looked up at Elliot, handing him the key knowing he would understand that she wanted him to open the door.

Elliot did what she wanted him to do, he opened the door and together they slowly walked in. When Olivia stood in her house, just near the entrance she felt like she was getting sick, fear coming back to her, seeing images of Lewis with a gun pointed to her head, everything of those four days came back to her. With fear in her eyes she looked at Elliot before breaking down "I can't do this" she said hyperventilating and before she knew it the world went black.
