Olivia took a deep breath and smiled as Alex fussed over her veil, fluffing her hair for the tenth time in the last ten minutes.
"Okay, Liv. You're perfect. And if you mess up your hair, I'll shoot you with your gun," she threatened playfully. A knock at the door made them jump, and Munch and Cragen poked their heads into the room.
"Is he with you?" Olivia asked nervously, not wanting any bad luck.
"Nah, Fin's keeping him entertained," Munch answered as he and Cragen walked into the room. Both of the men hugged Olivia, and Munch wrapped one arm around Alex's waist.
Looking at the clock, Olivia said, "Okay, you guys go out first, then Don and I will come-"
"Olivia," Alex interrupted gently. "Hon, we know." Then she turned to Munch, and he took her arm in his. "Let's go."
When they left the room, Cragen turned to Olivia and smiled gently. "You look like an angel, honey," he murmured, and she blushed. "I have something for you," he said, reaching into his breast pocket and pulling out a gold necklace with a diamond pendant dangling from it. A tear slipped down Olivia's cheek as he fastened it around her neck. "It was my wife's, and she always wanted to give it to our daughter. Olivia, I know she would be glad, because you are my daughter."
"I don't know what to say… Dad. Thank you."
Slipping his arm into hers, he smiled and said, "You ready for this?" And she nodded.
EOEOEOEOEOEOEOEOEOEOEOEOEOEOEOEOEOEOEO
Elliot, Munch and Fin stood at the altar, waiting for the wedding to begin.
"I can't believe this is happening," Elliot whispered to Munch.
"Me neither. But you two belong together," Munch said confidently. Elliot started to say something, but Fin nodded and said, "Look."
Elliot looked down to the front of the church, and he was breathless. She looked like a floating angel in the strapless, flowing gown. Her hair floated around her face, and the veil covered his eyes. She reached the altar, and he took her hand, whispering, "Love you, Liv."
"Love you too, El."
I had all but given up on finding
The one that I could fall into
On the day before you I was ready to settle for
Less than love and not much more
There was no such thing as a dream come true
Oh, but that was all the day before you
Standing in the middle of the crowd, Elliot covered Olivia's hand with his over the knife, carefully cutting two small pieces of the cake. Then he smiled as he fed her a bite of the cake, and she did the same with him.
"Come on, Liv! You know you want to!" Munch taunted, and Alex slapped his arm and shushed him.
Elliot couldn't miss the mischievous glint that appeared in his new wife's eye, right before she smashed the cake into his face. For a moment, he was shocked. Then he grinned and shoved his piece… right into Olivia's face! The whole crowd laughed and cheered as the newlyweds laughed and kissed.
Now you're here and everything's changin'
Suddenly life means so much
I can't wait to wake up tomorrow
And find out this promise is true
I would never have to go back to
The day before you
Hand in hand, Olivia and Elliot made their way onto the dance floor, and he pulled her close against him, wrapping his arms around her waist.
"I can't believe we're really married," Olivia breathed, resting her forehead against Elliot's.
"I know. I love you so much, Olivia, and I can't wait to start our new life together."
"Shut up and dance, El," she teased, kissing him firmly.
In your eyes I see forever
Makes me wish that my life never knew
The day before you
Munch and Alex were dancing close by. His hands were on her waist, and her arms were wrapped around his shoulders, her head resting on his chest.
"Alex?"
"What, John?"
"You know I love you, right?" he asked softly, and she looked up at him and kissed him. When she pulled away, she said, "Of course I do. And I love you, too."
Taking a deep breath, Munch reached into his pocket, producing a velvet box, and Alex's eyes widened.
"Alexandra Cabot, I lost you once, and by the grace of God, I found you again. I love you with everything that's in me, and I never want to lose you again. So, will you marry me?" He looked at her, his eyes wide and hopeful.
She smiled at him and nodded, and he slipped the ring onto her finger, then kissed her sweetly.
Alex looked at the ring, then threw her arms around Munch, laughing and kissing him.
"So, we're really doing this? We're gonna get married?" he asked, and she nodded.
"Looks like it. I love you, John."
"Love you too, Alex."
The Heaven knows those years without you
Shaping my heart for the that day I found you
You're the reason for all that I've been through
Then I'm thankful for the day before you
Elliot, Munch, Fin and Cragen stood watching as the women gathered around Olivia, who was preparing to throw the bouquet.
"So, you really proposed to her? Didn't think you had it in ya, man. Congratulations," Fin said, shaking his partner's hand.
"Yeah, Munch. Congratulations," Elliot and Cragen echoed.
"But wait a minute," Fin said. "Elliot, you and Liv are married. And Munch, your bony ass is engaged. Where does that leave me? I can't even get a girlfriend," Fin said desperately, and Cragen turned and smiled at him.
"Well, you know I'm available," he joked, waggling his eyebrows suggestively. Fin looked horrified, and Munch, Elliot and Cragen laughed and slapped Fin's back.
The women started screaming, and the men watched as the bouquet flew threw the air, landing in the hands of Alex Cabot. She and Olivia hugged and squealed, jumping up and down like teenagers.
"Good luck, John," Elliot said, nudging him in the ribs.
Now you're here and everything's changin'
Suddenly life means so much
I can't wait to wake up tomorrow
And find out this promise is true
I would never have to go back to
The day before you was the last day
That I ever lived alone
And I'm never going back
No I'm never going back
The next day, Olivia and Elliot were lying on a sandy white beach, watching the crystal clear blue waters lap at the beach. He was lying on his back, and she had her head resting on his chest, her hand drawing lazy circles on his skin.
"What are you thinking about, babe?" he asked, stroking her hair.
"Just about how much I love you," she answered, sitting up and kissing his lips. He moaned into her mouth and grasped her hips possessively, running his hands up and down her back.
"You wanna go back to the hotel?" she whispered, kissing his ear. He stood up and grabbed her hand, pulling her up against his chest. Looking into her beautiful brown eyes, he suddenly had a better idea. Bending slightly, he threw one arm under her legs, using the other to support her back.
"Elliot Matthew Stabler, don't you dare!" she screeched when she guessed his intentions. He just grinned and hoisted her over his shoulder, making a mad dash for the water. She playfully beat her hands against his back, but he just held her tighter and ran faster.
Reaching the ocean, he dove in with her still in his arms. When they came back up for air, they both gasped and laughed, holding each other close.
"You know, El," she said sweetly. "I could get used to this." Then she kissed him passionately, throwing him off guard. Suddenly she pulled away and dunked his head under the water, laughing maniacally. But when he didn't resurface, her playfulness quickly turned into worry.
"Elliot?" she called, looking around the water. He didn't answer, and she was about to panic when she felt something grab her leg. She shrieked when she felt something drag her under, and when they resurfaced, she smacked her husband, then kissed him.
"You jerk!" she sputtered, and he laughed.
"You know, you're beautiful when you're trying to be mad," he teased, kissing her again. She smiled and held him close, kissing his neck.
"Let's get out of here and go back to the hotel," he murmured, caressing her cheek. She smiled and took his hand, and they walked out of the water, hand in hand.
When they reached the shore, she dropped his hand and took off in a dead run, shouting, "Race you back, Stabler!" He stood there for a moment, then laughed and took off after her. Easily catching up with her, he snatched her up in his arms and kissed her again.
"I love you, Mrs. Stabler."
"And I love you too, Mr. Stabler."
Their lips met again, slowly and tenderly. And when they pulled apart, they smiled at each other and headed back to the hotel, intent on showing the other how much they loved them.
Now you're here and everything's changin'
Suddenly life means so much
I can't wait to wake up tomorrow
And find out this promise is true
I would never have to go back to
I would never have to go back to
The day before you
The day before you
The End.
