Elliot woke up to Olivia's whimpering, he felt her tossing and turning next to him. Suddenly Olivia shot up screaming "NO!". Elliot moved carefully closer to her "Liv, it's El sweetheart" Elliot said reaching for her arm. Olivia pulled away "no" Olivia whispered pulling away.

"Liv you're safe, it's El"Elliot said putting his hand on Olivia's shoulder receiving him a flinch. Tears rolled down her pale cheeks as sge put her arms around herself. Olivia turned her head slowly into Elliot's direction.

She stared at him blankly for a moment until she moved closer to him into his open arms. She put her face in the crook of Elliot's neck as she cried "make it go away". Olivia crumbled Elliot's shirt between her fingers. "Please I don't wanna hurt anymore" Olivia cried clutching her other hand on another piece of his shirt.

Elliot signed softLy stroking Olivia's hair as her sobs became softer, her breath evening out. As she slept Elliot looked at her putting a strand of her hair behind her ear, stroking her face 'I don't get how bad things keep happening to the most amazing people'

"Hey mom" Elliot said

"Hi Ell how's Liv doing!?"

Elliot let out a sign "not so great, sge woke up having a nightmare... as she calmed down she cried in my arms that I should makr it go away, it hurts me so much to see her like this"

"Ohh El, I don't see how this bad thing can happen to such a wonderful woman"

"I keep saying the same thing"

"And Eli don't worry about the kids, I'll take care of them as long as you need"

"Thanks mom, love you"

"Love you too my Eli bye"

Olivia walked out of the room looking like hell, her hair in all directions, red puffy eyes. She saw Elliot watching football, Olivia walked over to him, plopping down on the couch next to him " Sorry about last night.. or early this morning"

Elliot gave Olivia a small sad smile "don't look at me like that" Olivia said "you know I hate it"

"Yea sorry"Elliot said pulling Olivia closer. Olivia signed as she laid her head on his shoulder. "I wanna see my baby" Olivia said softly "okay we can go get them okay?" Olivia nodded "iI'm just going to shower" Elliot nodded.

Olivia made her way to the bathroom closing the door. Elliot signed knowing she never closes the door anymore unless the kids were there. As Olivia climbed into the shower she flinched at the hotness of the water but ignored the pain stepping under the hot water. Soon enough the whole bathroom was filled with steam.

Elliot walked out of the kitchen as he finished the dishes and saw the steam coming out from under the door. He walked to the door and knocked "Liv you okay?" *no answer* Elliot knocked harder "Liv I'm coming in!" Elliot said loudly opening the door and walking in seeing nothing but steam "geez Liv" he said mostly to himself coming closer to the shower he saw her figure there in a bundel, her face in her hands.

He opened the door and stuck his hand in to close the tapm he pulled back quickly in pain as the water burned him. He looked down at Olivia still sitting there under the water her skin red. Elliot pushed trough the pain closing the tap and getting a towel for Olivia "come on Liv" Elliot said picking her fragile figure out of the shower her whole body shaking as sobs escaped her lips.

Elliot put the towel around her "I'm sorry Liv" Elliot said kissing her temple lightly. "I'm not clean" Olivia said barely above a whisper. "Honey trust me you're clean okay? Just trust me, can you do that?" Elliot asked softly. Olivia nodded "okay"

The car ride to Bernie's was quiet . Olivia turned her head to Elliot just watching him as he drove. "I love you" Olivia said with a smile "I love you too Liv" Elliot sad taking his eyes of the road for a second.

They walked to Bernie's front door hand in hand knocking on the door. Bernie opened the door "hi" she said hugging Elliot and Olivia. As Olivia walked in Jen came running to her"Mommmyyyy!" Jen said hugging hermom tightly "hey sweetheart" Olivia said with a smile looking into Elliot's eyes who smiled back at her greeting his own kids. Amanda came into the front door with a grocery bag.

"Hi manda" Olivia said hugging her too and Lizzie and Dickie.

They all went home got dvd'd and food. As everyone was asleep Olivia and Amanda was still awake sharing a couch Amanda turned around looking at Olivia who was staring at the tv but not watching the movie "Liv..." she started Olivia looked up turning her hwad to look at Amanda waiting for her to talk "what happened? " Amanda asked.

Olivia signed "I.. got sexually assaulted by Jen's dad.."

"Ww..what..when?" Amanda asked "no.. nevermind stupid question" Amanda said again quickly. Olivia gave her a small smile. "Something happened since you had been gone?" Olivia asked. Amanda nodded with a smile biting her lip, Olivia smiled with a laugh "are you gona tell me what happened? "

Amanda smiled "I met someone" Olivia smiled "oohh?" Amanda nodded "her name's Jess" Olivia smiled "I have to meet her"

"You will with time of course" Amanda smiled. Olivia brought Amanda in for a hug as they laid back Amanda playing with Olivia's hair.

Olivia slept trough the night with no nightmares.
