Elliot woke up to find a note on him.
Elliot,
I didn't want to wake you when I left for work. Feel free to eat anything you want in the kitchen. Don't worry I'll tell Cragen why you're not coming in today. See you tonight.
Olivia
Elliot got up and walked into Olivia's kitchen. He found some cereal and decided to eat that. After that he then decided that he should pack up his stuff from Kathy's house.

"So where's Stabler?" Fin asked Olivia.
"Is he catching up on sleep?" Munch asked.
"No." Olivia said.
"Then what's going on?" Munch asked.
"Yesterday he finalized his divorce from Kathy. They're officially not married." Olivia said.
"Wow." Munch said.
"How did we not know about this?" Fin asked.
"He kept quiet about it. I didn't know until yesterday." Olivia told them.
"So where is he now? Is he still living with Kathy?" Munch asked.
"No he's staying at my place for now." Olivia told them.
"Control yourself Olivia, he just got divorced." Fin told her.
"What? Elliot and I are partners and friends. I'm just helping him out, he has no where to go." Olivia told them.
"Ok whatever you say." Munch said.
Munch and Fin had always noticed the sexual tension between Olivia and Elliot. They knew secretly they both liked each other more than friends.
"Just don't talk to Elliot about the divorce when he comes back." Olivia said.
Munch and Fin nodded.
Suddenly Cragen walked out.
"I just got a call. A girl was found beaten and possibility was raped in Central Park. Benson go with Munch to check it out." Cragen said.
SVU
Elliot pulled up to what used to be his house. Hopefully, Kathy hasn't changed the locks yet. He walked to the front door and put his key in. He opened the door. The house was silent since his kids except Eli were at school. He saw Eli in his crib and picked him up.
"Hey Eli, is your mommy home?" he asked.
Eli pointed towards the bedroom. He set Eli back in his crib and walked towards the bedroom. He opened the door and stopped since he was in shock at what he saw.
"Kathy?" Elliot asked.
Kathy looked up.
"Elliot! What are you doing here?" Kathy exclaimed.
"I'm here to pack my stuff. You couldn't wait could you?" Elliot asked pointing towards the man in the bed next to her.
"Elliot, we're divorced now." Kathy said.
"So I didn't go have sex with anyone yet. Were you cheating on me?" Elliot asked.
Kathy stared at him.
"How long?" Elliot asked.
"Just while we were going through the divorce." Kathy told him.
"I'm just here to pack my stuff." Elliot said.
"Why are you so mad? I bet you ran off to Olivia." Kathy said.
"I told you before, nothing ever happened with Olivia. Just let me pack my stuff." Elliot said.
SVU
"Abigail Jones looks to be around the age of 10." Olivia said.
"How did you ID her?" Munch asked.
"School ID, she went to private school." Olivia showed him the ID now in an evidence bag.
Olivia and Munch watched as her body was put on the stretcher.
"At least, she's still alive." Munch said.
"But in pretty bad shape." Olivia said.
Olivia rode in the ambulance to the hospital where they perform the rape kit on Abigail. Olivia took it down to Warner afterwards.
Later, in the squad room they all sat around trying to figure out what happened. Olivia and Munch went to school to question some people and they also went to her home. The detectives got some information to help them with the case.
At the end of the day, they got some suspects listed.
"It's late, go home." Cragen said.
Olivia grabbed her stuff and headed out. She drove back to her apartment. Once she got there, she walked and found boxes in her apartment.
"What the hell is going?" Olivia asked.
Elliot appeared. "I moved my stuff out."
"How was it?" Olivia asked.
"I found her in bed with another guy. Turns out, while we were getting the divorce she was cheating." Elliot said.
"Oh Elliot." Olivia said as she hugged him.
"How was work?" Elliot asked.
"I told them. A girl was found beaten and raped in Central Park." Olivia told him.
"Wow." Elliot said.
"I smell something good, did you cook?" Olivia asked.
"Yeah, a thank you dinner for letting me stay here." Elliot said.
"Thanks, did you tell Kathy you were staying here?" Olivia asked.
"No." Elliot said. He couldn't, there had been times Kathy has accused him of having an affair with Olivia.
"Dinner is almost ready." Elliot told her.
"Alright, I'll get changed then." Olivia said as she walked off to her bedroom.
Moments later, Olivia reappeared wearing sweats and a t-shirt.
"Just in time." Elliot said.
Olivia and Elliot sat down to eat.
"This is good." Olivia told him.
"Thanks." He smiled.
After dinner, they cleaned up and then decided to watch some T.V.
"Thanks again for letting me stay here Liv." Elliot said.
"No problem, you're my partner and best friend of course I wouldn't throw you out." Olivia told him.
Elliot smiled and looked at her. Olivia had always been there for him, she probably knew him better than Kathy did. She knew how to calm him down when he got upset. He stared into her brown eyes.
"Liv." He said.
"What?" she asked.
Elliot leaned in and planted his lips on her lips. Olivia was caught off guard at the action. She pushed him away.
"Elliot, you just finalized your divorce." She told him.
"So? Kathy has already moved on." He reminded her.
"I know, it's just-" Olivia started.
"Olivia, it's ok. You don't have to feel guilty." Elliot told her.
Olivia just stared at him. Elliot leaned in again and gave her another kiss. This time Olivia didn't pull away at first. Secretly, she had always wanted this. She returned the kiss. Few minutes later, Olivia pulled away.
"Let's stop here before we do something we'll regret." She told him.
Elliot nodded. That kiss made him realize something he felt deep down inside him. He was in love with Olivia.
"I better get to bed. We should sleep on this." She said.
"Yeah." Elliot said.
Olivia also realized she was in love with Elliot, she just wasn't sure he if felt the same or he was just upset over Kathy.
"Night El." Olivia said.
"Night." Elliot said.
Olivia walked off to her bedroom. She got into bed thinking about the kiss. What did this mean?
