Chapter Two:
So I am not going to lie I am actually really surprised that people want more. This makes me incredibly happy! Well, hopefully chapter two keeps you just as intrigued and you'll want to continue with this story. Well, enough chit-chat so go on and read!
And once again all characters belong to the Dick himself, Mr. Wolf.
She feels at peace with herself right now. The water flowing through her hair and covering her body completely as she soaks inside the now warm water. She wasn't under long before she heard what sounded like her name. A muffled voice coming from up above the water, but due to the water that filled her ears she couldn't really make out who the voice belonged to. If she was lucky enough maybe this person was here to kill her; stop all her misery.
"Damnit Liv, what are you doing?" Luke asked as he roughly pulled her up out of the water, not paying any attention to her naked state.
She looked around the bathroom trying to find a towel to cover herself. Though he has seen her naked many times before she feels too vulnerable; unconformable.
"Luke, can you … do you mind giving me my towel, please?" she shuttered as the cool air hit her skin; goose bumps making known all over her body.
Anger was displayed over his face. His body was stiff and she knew he was upset, but at the same time she didn't really care.
"Just what the hell is this, Olivia? You trying to kill yourself. You hate yourself so much that you try and take your own life?" he sat down on the toilet seat after handing her a towel.
She stood up and wrapped the towel around her body not paying any attention to the water that was dripping onto the floor missing the mat. Walking over to the mirror and she grabbed her face cream before speaking again, "that's not what this was, Luke. I was soaking in the tub. I wanted to relax. I just needed… I just needed to relax."
"That was not relaxing, Olivia! Do you understand how long you were under before I pulled you up?" he was growing more pissed by the minute.
"I use to be a swimmer, Luke. You know this." she made sure that her face cream was well blended into her skin before she began her nightly routine and she began brushing her teeth; paying little to no attention to her extremely upset boyfriend beside her.
He watched as she spit into the sink and made her way into her bedroom.
"You know Luke maybe you shouldn't be here right now. I need to get in bed and I wo…."
"You have what Olivia? Work? I know you don't have work tomorrow. It is your day off, you're not even on call." he slowly approached her and placed his hand on her stomach over her towel. "What is the matter, Li…" she pulled away slightly before speaking.
"Olivia. My name… my name is Olivia. Please do not call me Liv. You know I don't like it." he lowered his head like a child who just got himself into trouble.
He dropped his hand from her stomach and walked over to the door before speaking again, "maybe I should go and when you feel you are "relaxed" enough and you want to talk you can call me, yeah?"
She closed her eyes trying to stop the tears that were ready to spill over.
"Yeah, that sounds great. … and Luke?"
"Yeah Li… Olivia?" she smiled slightly at his mess up and walked over to him. Wrapping her arms around him and kissing his cheek before speaking again.
"Thank you."
She was thankful that he left shortly after because truth was she was exhausted and she wanted nothing more than to sleep…
"Do you love me, Elliot Stabler?" she asked as she sat up her bare thighs resting against his. He placed his hands on the sides of her hips, using his thumbs to rub soft circles before speaking again.
"I love you more than life, Olivia Stabler." he leaned up and kissed her deeply. She moved her hips rocking her core into him. She could feel him stiffen underneath her and she moaned softly. She was never a crier during sex, never in crier during their love making and yet here she was crying because he was being gentle with her.
He placed his hand over her stomach and whispered to their unborn baby. "You, my love, are something special you know that? You still have some time in there until you make your appearance, but please wait to come out. We know you feel you're ready but mommy and daddy are not." He kissed the top of her growing belly before looking up noticing the tears in her eyes.
"What is it, Liv? Why the tears?" he gently leaned up and wrapped his arms around her laying back down and pressing herself into him.
"I'm sorry, El. I don't mean to cry it's just that you are being so gentle to me and you're making sure that Abigail is safe all the time and I love that I get to see this side of you." she grabbed his arm and wrapped it around her waist before trying to calm her breathing finally letting sleep claim her.
It was the beeping of her cellphone that woke her up from her deep sleep. She rolled over in her bed and reached for it ready to accept a call from her boss, but instead it was Luke's mothers' name that appeared on the screen. Vivian. She decided to let it go to voicemail and she would "call" her back when she felt like it. Once the ringing stopped and the name disappeared she noticed the time: 7:42am, even on her day off she couldn't sleep in she thought to herself.
She leaned up in her bed and pulled her tshirt up looking down at the scar on her abdomen thinking back to the day she had delivered.
"Okay Mrs. Stabler, I need you to calm down and breathe for me. We are trying to reach your husband now but all this worrying is just going to stress you even further and it is not healthy for you nor the baby." the nurse brushed her hand over her hair and silently prayed for her patient.
"My husband, he … he should be here, why isn't he here? I called him when my water broke and he said he would be here-ooooo." She placed her hand on her stomach and pressed down feeling a tightness and a release.
"Mrs. Stabler we cannot wait any longer for your husband. You are suffering from placental abruption and your baby is not receiving any oxygen and we are taking this baby … now!"
Her mind was going a mile a minute and she wanted nothing more than to have her husband with her right now.
She shook her head of the thoughts and pulled her hand away from her stomach, not paying attention to the tears that were falling down her cheeks.
"Elliot, I know you are not here and I know there is no way you can hear me but I need you." she found herself crying harder now than she ever had. "I miss our baby girl, I miss our Abigail and I want to hold her again and I want you to tell me everything will work itself out but you can't because you are not here and im… I'm… I want to come home, Elliot."
Well there you have it folks! Chapter two. I promise, this will soon all start to make sense. I am already writing chapter three and it will bring in a little Elliot and hopefully some Abigail too! … Who knows! Oh, and if you enjoyed it and you wish please leave a review!
