Authors Note- Okay guys this is it. The last chapter to this story. Thanks for all the reviews, they mean so much to me. I'm working on a sequel to this story. Not sure what it's going to be called yet though, so just be on the lookout for it. Sorry I haven't updated in a couple of weeks. I just got a new job and it's been taking a lot of my time lately. Olivia did breast feed but is trying to wean the babies onto bottles.
Ch.7
Three months after the birth of their beautiful twins, Elliot and Olivia decided to tie the knot. Olivia didn't want a traditional wedding and Elliot did, so they compromised. They were standing at the front of the church in their full NYPD uniforms. Olivia holding baby Casey in her arms and Elliot holding baby John were facing each other. The twins were wearing tiny NYPD uniforms that grandpa Cragen had bought for them. Olivia and Elliot had already exchanged rings. They lean in to kiss each other, but as soon as their lips meet Olivia jerks away.
"Whoa there darling! You can't have that." Olivia laughs while unlatching the baby from her clothed nipple.
Everyone laughs as Olivia resituates the infant in her arms. The reception starts and everyone is dancing and having fun.
"Excuse me...can we have your attention please?" Fin says into the microphone with Munch standing beside him.
Everyone stopped what they were doing and faced towards them.
"Casey and Alex will you come here please?" Munch asks taking the mic from Fin.
Alex and Casey stepped to the front of the room to stand in front of Fin and Munch with confused looks on their faces.
"Alex...Casey..." Fin and Munch says as they drop to one knee in unison.
"Will you marry me?" Munch and Fin says and each pull out a red velvet ring box.
Casey and Alex are both speechless. All they can do is nod their heads while tears of happiness ran down their cheeks.
"Look at them. They're so in love." Olivia tell Elliot while rocking Casey to sleep.
"Well, Mrs. Stabler, I'm so in love with you." Elliot says before leaning over and passionately kissing Olivia.
Cragen is seated at a table playing with baby John.
"Papaw thinks his little man looks very handsome today." Cragen coos to John.
John smiles up at his grandpa and coos showing that he's a miniature Elliot Stabler. His mood quickly turns fussy.
"You're just like your daddy." Cragen laughs while digging in the diaper bag under the table.
He pulls out a bottle and quickly feeds it to the fussy baby. Elliot and Olivia walked over to where Cragen was sitting. Olivia gently placed a sleeping Casey in the stroller.
"El, will you watch the kids while I share a dance with my FATHER?" Olivia asks making sure to put extra enunciation on the word father.
"Sure, honey. (Takes baby John from Cragen) Make sure to save me a dance." Elliot says before leaning over and kissing her cheek.
Elliot watches as Olivia and Cragen join Alex, Fin, Casey and Munch on the dance floor.
"You know...I meant what I said a few minuets ago about you being my father. You're the only father figure I've ever had in my life, so I hope you didn't mind that I called you my father." Olivia says relieved that she could finally tell him how she felt.
"Olivia, Of course I don't care. I've thought of you as my daughter since you first joined the squad. I would love nothing more than for you to start calling me dad. That's why I had Casey draw these up." Cragen says pulling some papers out of his back pocket.
Olivia took the papers from Cragen and read them carefully.
"Adoption papers?" Olivia asks confused.
"I know it's a lot to take in, but I just want you to think about it." Cragen says with tears in his eyes.
"Captain, or should I say DAD, (Tears streaming down her face.) I don't have to think about it because it's what I've always wanted." Olivia says hugging Cragen.
They finished their dance and walked back to the table where Elliot was. He had placed John in the stroller with his sister. Both babies sleeping peacefully. Olivia signed the adoption papers and gave them to Cragen.
"I'll get these to Casey and have her finalize the adoption ASAP. I Love you, sweetheart." Cragen kisses her cheek then leaves to find Casey.
"What was that all about?" Elliot asks pulling Olivia to him.
Olivia's back was against his chest. She leaned her head back against his shoulder.
"Cragen's adopting me. El, I'm going to have a dad. (Smiling from ear to ear) Everything is finally going right for us. I mean look at us. We're married and have a family of our own. We've still got our jobs, which we love and I'm getting the dad I've always wanted. El, this must be what happy ever after feels like." Olivia says blissfully.
"Liv, I love you and this is defiantly our happy ever after." Elliot says then places a tender kiss on her lips.
"El, I think we're going to have to skip that dance I promised you." Olivia says feeling Elliot's lips on her neck.
"Umhmm...(He mumbles into Olivia's ear) Whose (kiss) taking (kiss) the(kiss) kids?" Elliot asks in between placing kisses on Olivia's neck.
"Alex and Fin and the sooner you let me go, the sooner we can get rid of the kids and go home." Olivia says pulling away.
"Okay, I think you have everything. You have all the numbers and if you need anything don't hesitate to call." Olivia tells Alex, making sure she hasn't forgotten anything
"Don't worry, Liv. We won't need anything. Now you two go have some fun tonight." Alex says hugging Olivia.
Elliot and Olivia gave hugs all around. Melinda and Haung had to leave right after the wedding. They kissed the twins goodnight and then turned to leave.
"CONGRATULATIONS!" Everyone yelled in unison as Elliot and Olivia left the church.
Setting: Stabler apartment:
"Welcome home, Mrs. Stabler." Elliot says as he carries Olivia across the threshold.
"How about that dance I promised you earlier?" Olivia asks looking deep into Elliot's eyes lustily.
Elliot carried Olivia into their bedroom and made passionate love to her all night.
