I don't own Law and Order or the characters. Dick Wolf does. It's just a thought that popped into my head from the song Breakeven by the Script.

Elliot had tried calling Liv, but he didn't get her. He didn't blame her, and now he felt horrible. He needed to make things right, but how do you fix it when

you mess up so badly? There's only one thing that can make Liv ever forgive me he said as he walked out of the hospital. His kids were going to stay in

the hospital until later the next day, because the doctors were worried about Kathleen's head injury and Richard's blood loss since it takes a while to

make blood. Elliot knew Olivia would be at the precinct so he made his way there. When he walked in he saw Munch and Fin standing by their desks talking.

They looked up at him and he was getting looks of anger from them.

"What did you do to Liv Stabler?"

"I didn't mean to Fin."

"That sounds like guilt, doesn't it Munch?"

"Yes it sure does."

"Where is Liv?"

"Why should we tell you Stabler?"

"You might be able to get away with being mean to Liv, but this is worse it's like you killed her."

"I know you're messed up with everything that's happened to you, but don't take it out on Liv."

"I didn't….. I just need to talk to her."

"If you hurt her again Munch and I will kick your ass."

"She's in the cribs."

Elliot ran to the cribs and saw Liv crying on the bed.

"Liv…."

"Elliot don't."

"Liv I need to explain please."

"She knew Elliot wouldn't drop it so she got up and went back out to her desk with Elliot following on her heels.

"Liv, I just want to talk."

"I really don't want to Elliot so just go the fuck away and leave me alone."

Elliot pretended not to hear what she said and grabbed her arm. Olivia slapped him and it resonated throughout the quiet precinct.

"I know I deserved that Liv, but I just want to talk."

Olivia looked stunned why was Elliot being so calm, even when she hit him?

"Fine, you have a minute."

"I said what I did because I was in denial."

"We've always been Benson and Stabler and it's hard to see through that even when you're living it and now I realize something really important."

"Kathy wasn't good for me in many ways, and this only makes me realize that I can move on since she went crazy and everything."

"I will do anything for your forgiveness over me being an asshole to you."

Elliot got down on his knees and stared at Liv. Olivia knew she would have to forgive him especially since he was going to such a length to

apologize.

"I forgive you Elliot."

Elliot got up and said "thanks Liv you have no idea how much better I feel."

Elliot gave her a hug and said "I have another surprise for you."

"Elliot?"

"Except this is different it's not to apologize it's to fix everything."

"Every thing between us and all the things to come."

A guy walked in and said "I have a delivery for an Olivia Benson."

Olivia looked shocked she couldn't move. It was a single perfect rose and it looked beautiful.

"Elliot that's really sweet."

"I'm not done yet Liv."

"El, what else could you possibly have?"

"Well first there's a speech and a poem."

"A poem?"

"Yes, I found one somewhere."

"From an unknown writer so it should be good."

Please review it. Sorry the last chapter was short, but my mom made me go to bed and I didn't get to explain some things. I hope this makes up for it.

I also thought this would be the appropriate reactions. The next chapter will be sweet at least I think it is.
