Please review! SVUElandLivForever has already guessed what will happen. I'm happy to say she/he is right. So, I hope they're happy!
Olivia and Elliot walked into their house. "Hey guys, do you have... where's Bella?" Lizzie asked. "Yeah, she wasn't at the school. Where's my Barbie buddy?" Dickie asked holding up a Barbie doll.
Olivia teared up. "Mom? What happened?" Lizzie asked worried. "Bella... Bella-" Olivia tried to say it, but she couldn't. She let her tears fall. Elliot wrapped his arms around her. His own tears fell.
This alarmed both Dickie and Lizzie. They had never seen their father cry. Elliot looked at his kids. "Bella... she was kidnapped. The man... perp left her in a building... it blew up." Elliot whispered.
"No." Lizzie whispered. "That can't happen. She's supposed to grow up." Dickie mumbled to himself. Lizzie let her tears fall as did Dickie. They both hugged Elliot and Olivia. All trembling from sadness.
That night, they all ate close to nothing watching Bella's favorite movie. It was the movie Six Days Seven Nights with Harrison Ford. Bella really like him. Maureen and Kathleen came over so that they could be told in person. They decided to stay that night at the house.
Elliot checked on his kids before going to his room. When he got there, Olivia wasn't. "Liv?" He called into the bathroom. He went back down the hall, planning on going downstairs until he heard a muffled whimper.
He turned around and opened Bella's door. Olivia was sitting on Bella's bed holding Bella's favorite stuffed animal. Olivia wiped her eyes, held the animal up to her face, inhaled her daughter's scent, and held it to her chest. She looked out the window at the full moon.
"Liv?" Elliot croaked out closing the door behind him. Olivia jumped from being startled. "Yeah?" She asked. Elliot sat behind her on the bed so she was in between his legs. He wrapped his arms around her torso and kissed her neck. "I miss her too, Liv."
"El, I want our baby back." Olivia whispered letting more tears fall. "I do too. Do you want to sleep in here tonight?" Elliot asked his wife. Olivia leaned back into him and nodded. Elliot slid off his shoes and manuvered them both under the covers of the twin size bed.
Olivia faced him. The moon reflected off of her tears. The same was for him. Olivia kissed his chest and nuzzled into it as he wrapped his arms around her. "I love you." She whispered. "I love you too. So much." Elliot said kissing her forehead. They fell asleep with the stuffed animal in between them.
The next morning, Cragen agreed to let them work only if they did paperwork. He wanted them to stay home. Today was going to be hard enough without dealing with the grieving detectives. They would be too distracted to go into the field. Cragen sighed as he watched them hurry through their paperwork. They didn't want to think about what happened.
Just then, Munch's phone rang. "Dective Munch SVU." He said. "Well, it looks like I've got the wrong number. Oh well." Gitano said. Munch hit the speaker button on his phone so Fin, Olivia, and Elliot could hear it. "Hey, I'm sorry about your guys' little friend. Too bad, huh? She was such a smart girl. Such a shame." Gitano chuckled.
"What do you want? You already murdered my daughter." Elliot yelled, forcing back the emotion that bubbled up when he said that. "Oh, I just thought I'd call and check in. My condolences by the way. I bet you loved her very much." Gitano said in a fake sympathy voice.
"We'll find you." Olivia snarled. "Oh, I have no doubt about that. It'll just take you guys another time. How's it feel knowing that you've let the same guy escape three times?" Gitano asked. "I know you'll find me eventually. Doesn't mean it will be tomorrow, or next week. Heck, it could take you years to find me. You guys won't give up though. That I'm sure of." Gitano spat before hanging up.
"Call came from Jersey. I recall that he has a house there." John said looking up the address. "Here it is. Let's go." The four loaded up into Fin's car and headed to Jersey. They pulled up to the house and got out. Elliot's blood was boiling as he got closer to the front door with Olivia while Munch and Fin went to the back.
Elliot kicked in the front door and went inside holding up his gun. Olivia followed him in. Munch and Fin went upstairs to check out the place. "Clear!" Olivia yelled to Elliot. "Clear here too." Elliot said walking to her.
"He hasn't been gone long. The bottle of beer is still cold." Elliot pointed out. "Elliot, look at this." Olivia called to him from the corner of the room. Elliot went over and was surprised.
Gitano had pictures of Bella plastered on his wall. Some of them were even with him or Olivia. In all of them, Bella was smiling so big you swore it hurt her face muscles. Elliot recognized one that he took last week. Elliot and Bella were walking around a car dealership parking lot. Bella had pointed out a baby blue mustang that she liked.
Elliot teared up at the sight. He looked at Olivia to find her crying as well. He pulled her into a hug. Munch and Fin came over to see the pictures. Gitano even had pictures of them with Bella.
When they got back to the presinct, Cragen ordered Olivia and Elliot to go home. They didn't argue. Cragen said if they got anything they would call. They both walked into the house and agreed to do one thing. Watch something Bella liked. She had a whole shelf of her favorite movies.
After changing into the matching footy pajamas they had that matched Bella's, they sat down to watch The Nanny with Fran Drescher. It was Bella's favorite TV show. Olivia cuddled up to Elliot under the huge blanket that he put over them. He wrapped his arm around her back and rested his head on top of hers.
After a couple of episodes, Dickie and Lizzie came home from school. They dropped their bookbags on the floor and huddled under the blanket with Olivia and Elliot. "Do we have to go to Mom's tonight?" Lizzie asked.
"Yeah, you do. You guys only see her every other weekend. She misses you. Maureen called and said that her and Kathleen were already there." Elliot said. "Fine. Dickie, come on let's go get ready." Lizzie groaned.
"Okay, do you guys mind if I take one of Bella's stuffed animals with me? It smells like her." Dickie asked. "No, we don't mind. We actually borrowed one of them last night. Take anyone you want Dickie." Olivia said ruffling his hair. "Thanks Mom." Dickie said kissing her cheek and going upstairs with his sister.
Elliot kissed Olivia's other cheek and nuzzled his nose into it. "That was nice of you." Elliot whispered. "It was understanding of me. Just inhaling the scent of her relaxed me. Her and Dickie were extremely close. I understand." Olivia whispered back.
"Yeah, I know." Elliot said. He let a few tears fall as did Olivia. "She was only four." Elliot choked out. "I know. It just makes it that much harder." Olivia whimpered. Elliot pulled her closer so she was on his lap.
Dickie and Lizzie came down the stairs a few minutes later with their dufflebags. Olivia could tell that they had both been crying. "Come here guys." Olivia said holding out her arms. They both went to her and fell into her embrace. Elliot and her cried with them.
"I'm going to call Mom. I don't really feel like driving like this." Dickie said leaving the room. Lizzie crawled back under the covers. Olivia looked over at the dufflebags on the floor. She smiled a little when she saw a Barbie and a stuffed bear sticking out of one of them.
Dickie crawled back under the covers after making the call. They waited until Kathy got there. Instead of coming in, she honked her horn three times signaling that she was there. "I swear. We could have a hurricane and she wouldn't step inside this house." Dickie huffed under his breath.
"See you guys Sunday night." Elliot said kissing his kids on the head. They smiled and waved goodbye before leaving. Elliot looked down at Olivia to find her looking at a photo on the bookshelf. They took it during the summer.
"Bella, I know it's hot. After this, we'll go get supper and if you're good we'll get ice cream." Elliot said straining out her dress. Her eyes popped out of her little head. She turned around. "People, let's get this show on the road. I got a bowl of ice cream with my name on it." Bella shouted running towards Olivia.
"Bribing her with ice cream again, El? You really spoil her." Olivia smirked kissing her daughter's head. "Yeah, she knows which card to play. You know I can't say no to that face." Elliot said kissing his daughter's cheek.
"Really? So, when she comes home with a boy what are you-" Olivia started. "No!" Elliot said loudly making the word sound longer than it actually is. Olivia laughed at him.
"Do you remember that day?" Elliot asked. "Yeah, you bribed our daughter with her weakness. Ice cream." Olivia said. "You had to bribe her with fried chicken just to wear the dress." Elliot chuckled. "It was good chicken." Olivia smiled.
"It was. I believe we got 3 plates of wings. Then, we had to go to Dairy Queen to get her blizzard." Elliot said. "I'm really going to miss that." Olivia sighed. "Me too, Liv. Me too." Elliot sighed with her.
