Hey guys! I know you hate me right now haha. I had to watch the season finale! It was sad, and frustrating. Ugh. Review!
Chapter 7
Olivia looked down at the little minus sign. She wasn't pregnant. She looked up, tears sparkling her eyes, and sighed softly. Why couldn't this miracle of life happen to her? Why was the world of motherhood was always out of her reach? It was really bad chicken, after all. Right then she got a call, and sighing she answered it.
One week later…
Olivia looked at Elliot shocked, her hands all bloodied from sister Peg. There eyes connected, and millions of words passed between them unsaid. Olivia hitched in her breath shock, just squatting there as the deceives came in, and as Fin called for help. She couldn't believe it. Wouldn't believe it. How could Jenny kill them? She understood the reason why, but in doing so, she got killed-by Elliot's shot. When would this horrible end of crimes end?
Elliot looked at Olivia as she broke down in tears, as she looked at her hands uncomprehendingly. He felt sick. He just killed the girl he was bound to protect. A girl who was about the same age as his daughter Lizzie. How could he do this? How could he end the life of a child, the child he promised to protect? His eyes connected with Olivia's, and they shared their shock and grief. Jenny, and now Sister Peg. No.
Elliot got up, his mind spinning. He needed air. Now.
"Hey El. You got to go give your statement." Fin said gently.
Elliot looked at him, not really registering what he was saying.
"El..? Are you alright?" Fin asked concerned.
"I will, uh go give my statement Fin. " Elliot lied. Fin nodded, and when he turned to check on Liv, he ran out. Ran away from the chaos, the heartbreak, the depressing horrible crime that he just committed. The cool May air hit his face, slapping him awake. He gulped it in, and paced. Trying not think, trying not to go ballistic. He kicked at a trashcan, it flew ten feet and hit the floor with a hard clank. He needed to get away, away from everything.
Olivia gave her statement, went to the bathroom, then went to go look for Elliot. He left so abruptly, and she was scared. Because she knew what he did when something like this happened. She ran outside, and searched around. He wasn't there. She started to walk down the street, then spotted the park across the street. Having a hunch, she walked over there and found him standing on the edge of the water in a secluded place.
"El." Liv said gently, trying not to startle him.
Elliot whirled around, his blue eyes filled with sadness, and anger.
"El…" Olivia said walking over to him and enveloping him in a hug. A hug they both needed.
Elliot stood there shocked. She appeared out of nowhere, and now she was here hugging him, trying to reassure him, to give him comfort. He hugged her uncertainly, trying to hold back the stinging tears that threatened to fall down on his face. He heard her crying softly, and he stroked her silkily brown hair, trying to give her the comfort they both needed.
Olivia shuddered at his touch. They haven't been this close since Sonya's death. Why were they only this close, when something terrible happened? Why?
Liv pulled away, looking at him. She knew he was resisting the urge to cry.
"El, it's ok to cry." Olivia whispered, putting her hand to his cheek.
Elliot closed his eyes at her touch. SHe was the only light in this horrible darkness. His only good thing in this world besides his kids. She was his strength, his love, his safe harbor. He wish he could tell her all this, but he knew she was happy with Blake. And he didn't want to be the cause of her sadness, the cause of her heartbreak. So he said nothing, pulling away.
"I'm not ok, but i'm not going to cry." he said, trying to attempt a joke.
Olivia smiled feebly "Why? I need you to, so I'm not the only one who looks horrible."
Elliot was about to say something, but Olivia's phone started to ring, something different form her regular ringtone.
Olivia pulled away and answered "Hey Blake." She listened for a minute "Oh he did? Ok, ya i'm not ok, but i will be…your coming? Blake you don't have to…Ok then i will see you tomorrow morning. Bye." Liv hung up smiling faintly.
"How did he know?" Elliot asked.
"Cap called him and now he is coming. For me. Wow." she said, amazed.
"Well thats good, right?" Elliot asked, watching her.
"Yes it is..but no one has ever done that for me. It's..different." She told him, staring off into space.
Elliot sighed "Well we better get back. Before were missed."
"Ya we should. Are you going to be ok?" Olivia asked, her eyes staring into his.
He looked into her beautiful brown eyes, wishing he could tell her, tell her everything. "I am, are you?"
Olivia nodded, gave him a quick hug, and then they both walked back-together.
