When Worlds Collide

A/N: Hello! How are you guys? I'm okay, better than before, but now dealing with allergies. (Bleh! Allergies suck!) Anywho… how'd you like my first ever written smut chapter/scene? I forgot to read through it again before I posted it, so yes, I know, there are a few things you were probably thinking 'huh?' right? I don't blame you if you did, because I wrote it and I thought that. If not, well, I guess your brain fixes the mistakes that are there! Again, anyway… I'm happily surprised that I'm already at chapter ten! \-_-/ whooo! haha, well, I shall allow you guys to read you're next chapter that you are obviously here for, so here it goes! My chapter ten! :)

CHAPTER TEN (!): FOO?!

"What time is it?!" Olivia woke up in a flash and looked at the digital clock on her nightstand, 10:26 AM. "Shit! Fuck! Elliot! We have to get up, Noah is probably up and wanting food." she looked over to where he should have been, but saw nothing. By the way my neck, and in between my legs feel, there is no way in hell he wasn't here last night. He said he didn't want to run from me anymo-

"Lookie Noah, momma's finally awake! You want to go get her?" she heard from behind her, she whipped around right as Noah practically jumped from Elliot's arms into her arms and squealed,

"Ma!"

She smiled so big Elliot's mouth hurt from just seeing her jaw smile that big, "Hello momma's sweet little man! How are you today?" she cooed at him. Noah just clapped his hands excitedly and had about just as big smile on his face as his mother did. Elliot's heart soared at the sight in front of him.

"Didn't I tell you that you'd be and make a great mother all those years ago Liv?" he chuckled, smiled at her with Noah sitting on her lap, and her kissing the top of his head.

"Noah tell daddy to be quiet!" she laughed and threw her pillow at him. He covered his head with his hands, then grabbed the pillow, and was still laughing as he said,

"Momma's so going to get it now Noah!" he started taking long strides towards her, and was right next to her and Noah in a matter of four steps, and tossed the pillow to the other side of the bed, then,

"Ahhhh!" he mock tackled both of them to the bed, all three laughing hard with Elliot rolling over to his left, so Olivia's right side was lining up on Elliot's left and Noah -still in Olivia's arms- was on Elliot's chest/right side. Neither Elliot nor Olivia seemed to catch the fact that she called him 'daddy', or if they did, neither said anything. After everyone was back to somewhat normal from their laughing fit, Elliot sat both of them up, and sat on the edge of the bed looking over at them, and spoke up,

"Well babe, as you obviously just noticed it's about twenty till eleven now, Noah here helped me make breakfast this morning. There is some left over chocolate-chip pancakes, bacon, freshly cut fruit, a piece or two of toast, and a few links of sausage left to warm up if you'd like.. or I could if you wanted me too. I figured if you wanted some eggs I'd cook them made-to-order because for one, I didn't think you like cold, or reheated for that matter, eggs, and two, I wasn't a hundred percent sure on how you like yours. Oh! I almost forgot, we also have some rice cereal too if you'd like some of that. Noah offered me some, but I told him that I'd only have a bite if his momma said it was okay for him to share his food." Elliot grinned at her.

"Well my goodness Noah, you and daddy were busy this morning huh? How about the three of us get going into the kitchen so momma can decide what she wants, how's that my handsome boy?" Olivia grinned back.. this time she realized that she had called Elliot 'daddy',

"Oh my God El, I'm so sorry. I didn't mean that you were his dad. I don't want to put that burden of being a dad back on to you so fast. You just got back four days ago, from God only knows how many psychotic idiots trying to kill you. I'm sor-" she rambled on in short, broken breaths.

"Olivia, hey, hey, it's okay. Don't be sorry, please? And he's not a burden, and neither are you. Just a few minutes ago when we were laughing?" he asked her with a raised brow,

"Yeah…?" she wasn't sure where he was going with this.

"Liv, that was the most I have laughed since before I left. I hadn't laughed like that since Eli did something -I don't even remember what it was now- but he was only eight months old. Four and a third years ago was when I laughed like that last. That's Fifty-two months Liv. Please don't apologize for something that in the short amount of time I've been here, with the two of you, that has brought me so much joy. God Liv, every day I was gone, I prayed like hell for two things. One, that I'd survive my tours so I could get back to my kids, and you. And number two? That one of the times I survived, if I survived, I'd come back here and you'd have a child. Even if you were married to someone else, I wanted you to be able to have a child. I knew from the first time I saw you with a child victim, you'd be the best mom in the entire world to him or her. It was reaffirmed when you had gotten custody of Calvin, and I know you don't want to talk about him because it hurts to think about how he was practically ripped from your arms, but as I said, it just reaffirmed to me that you'd be the best mother you could be. And with my kids, Jesus Liv, you have helped my kids more than you'll ever know. Maureen wants to become a therapist that specializes in rape victims, Kathleen probably would be hanging with the wrong crowd instead of focusing on her schooling, Lizzie and Dickie apparently have asked about you to my sister -more on that later- so much that now Eli wants to meet you. Obviously Eli is the only one that has some question marks in his head about how you are associated with his brother, sisters, and daddy, but I have no question in my mind that once we tell him that you're the one that first held him, that you single- handedly saved his life, and if it wasn't because ofyou, he wouldn't have a daddy, he'll come around quite fast to you. Don't you see it Liv? You are the love of my life, and I will always love you, no matter the outcome of our relationship. And now, I have you and Noah, I couldn't be happier right now. So again, please do not apologize for something as innocent as you calling me Noah's 'daddy', I would be honored to be Noahs stand-in-father if you let me be." both were in tears by the time he finished, and Noah -who was confused at the dramatic shift of emotions in the room- started fussing to get down from Olivia's arms. She sniffed, and wiped the tears off of her cheeks as best as she could, and replied,

"Damn it Elliot, you always seem to know what to say at some of the most important times. I know it's only been four days since you've been back in my and Noah's life, but I'd be more than happy to allow you to be Noah's father. I've known you for sixteen years El. You wouldn't have to be a stand-in-father, you would/will be his father. I -only if you want- want you to apply also to become his adoptive father, with me while I apply to be his adoptive mother.. So -so maybe we can be a family of our own in sorts" Elliot didn't even think about it for five seconds,

"Only if I want to? Only to become Noah's adoptive father?! Are you serious right now Liv? I would love nothing more -except to eventually try to have our own child, or children, that share our DNA- than to become his adoptive father and be our own little family. But. But before we decide anything, we should talk this through. Trust me Liv, I want this more than anything, but nobody besides us and Noah know the two of us are together, and as smart as Noah is, he can't talk well enough." he got up, and went over to kneel in front of them so he was eye level with Olivia and Noah, and hugged both. When they pulled away after being in his embrace for a few seconds, Elliot kissed Noah on the top of his forehead, and then kissed Olivia on the mouth, that would have went farther if not for Noah being in her arms still, and the sound of somebody knocking on her door.

"You expecting anyone Liv?" Elliot asked,

"No, no one that I can think of.." she said a little nervous, which Elliot, being Elliot, picked up on right away.

"Okay, stay here with Noah. Give me your service weapon." he said in a quiet, but reassuring voice. She nodded, and pointed to the lock box on her dresser, then she whispered the combination, "10-20-76". Her face reddened a little bit, and he wasn't sure why until he read back the numbers to her, his date of birth. He looked at her with half a smirk, and she flipped him off behind Noah's back. He chuckled and unlocked her lock box, pulled her weapon out, and made sure it had a full standard issue magazine in place.

"Yell out to ask who it is really quick?" he whispered to her.

"Sure. WHO IS IT?" she yelled from her room. Elliot walked out about half way, ready to blow anyone away if they tried breaking into her apartment, but stopped in his tracks when he heard who it was,

"Hey Baby-girl, it's Uncle Fin to come see my nephew since I was in the area, and I had meant to tell you somethin the other day.. You okay? You sound far away..?" he yelled back loud enough for her to hear him in her bedroom, which he obviously didn't know she was in. She came running out with Noah on her hip, and eyes wide. She pointed to Elliot, then pointed to her room, and signaled him to be quiet. He nodded and blew her a kiss. She smiled, acted like she caught it, then blew one back and he did the same thing. She shooed him to her room, as she replied to Fin, walking towards the door,

"Okay Fin, hold up for a second." She opened the door, "Sorry, Noah and I were playing in my room, which is why I sounded so far away." she apologized with a small smile.

"Hey it's cool, as I said, I was in this area, actually this build -Liv?" he started, but saw her neck, and upper chest that had multiple visible hickies, one of which had a bite mark that was half visible meaning that -no, Fin was not going to think where the other half was, this was like his little sister…- but why was she wearing a mans T-shirt?

She replied, "Yeah..?" she noticed him looking at her neck/chest, so she too looked down and mentally cursed herself for not putting something over Elliot's T-shirt before opening the door. She blushed blood red, and asked softly, "Ughh, please don't ask. Not until I bring it up, okay? I will tell you that yes, I'm in a relationship with someone. It just kind of happened, and well.. We got a little carried away last night as you can see… If you want to watch your nephew here for about half an hour, I can go myself look a little more presentable. Or you can come back later.."

"Good to see you're in a relationship with someone.. but you're moving a bit fast don't you think Liv?! I mean has the guy even met Noah yet? Or the rest of us..?" he asked with his voice escalating with each word. He didn't even discuss if he'd let her go get dressed, or if he'd come back later, which honestly pissed her off. She voiced her displeasure of his tone,

"Fin, one don't you dare start yelling at me when I'm holding Noah. Two, do NOT forget you came here unannounced, if I knew you were coming over I would've been up sooner than thirty minutes ago. Three, I will decide on what is too fast. Four, as a matter of fact, yes he has met Noah, and Noah loves him to death already, and lastly, five, I don't need yours or anyone elses approval for who I can or cannot date, father. If you are going to judge me, in my apartment, then you can show yourself the door, and never show your face here again. The only time you'd see me would be at work as your superior and you'd only see Noah if Lucy brought him up to see me during my very sporadic lunch schedule." she said back to him in a harsh voice, but not yelling. She didn't even realize she was shaking slightly. She was nervous Elliot would hear her and come out, but thankfully he never did, but she was sure she would be explaining this one later when they talk about everything.

Fin looked at her, he felt bad for yelling at her, and making her think that she had to have his -or the squads- approval to date someone. Frankly, he didn't think Olivia would date anyone long enough to settle down, especially after the talk/fight they had two and a half weeks ago about how he thought Stabler was once in love with her. He shook his head,

"I'm sorry Liv, you know I, or anyone else, don't have to approve your relationships. And if you didn't wake up until thirty minutes ago, then you didn't get my text I sent you about an hour ago." he smiled lightly, "I'm happy he met Noah, and that the little guy loves him already. As long as he doesn't replace his Uncle Fin, I'll be happy for ya guys. I can watch him, or I could come back later, it's up to you.."

"It's okay Fin, you know how much shit I've been under lately, then all this stuff with Barba's grandmother, I'm just a little overwhelmed. I promise, you'll be one of the first people I have my new boyfriend meet, okay? Just don't tell the rest of the squad I'm seeing anyone. I figure a few of these hickies will still be there, and I know the bite mark will be." she blushed again, "Since it's only fifteen after eleven, if you don't mind, it'd be nice to be able to clean up, and eat something. I can call you when to come over, if you'd like." she offered.

Fin nodded his head, "Sure, I was actually here to tell you, I moved in to an apartment on the ninth floor, and was on my way back down, when it occurred to me that you had the weekend off, and I'd see if you were home to tell you."

"Oh! Well.. Ugh, that's great Fin. I'll see you later okay, I gotta go to the bathroom really quick, so you know your way out. Really sorry for this quick goodbye!" she said as she ran back to her room to go to the 'bathroom'. She waited until she heard the click and the quick beeping noise that signified the alarm was reset.

"Did he really just say that he moved into your building?" Elliot said coming out of her closet -just in case when he heard someone walking towards her room- and accidentally scared her in the process. She jumped a little bit,

"Son of a gun El, you scared me! And yes.. I think that means we are going to have to start talking after I get something to eat, and Noah goes down for his noon nap. I'll just have to act surprised at whatever your mother tells me that you'll tell me. The sooner we tell Raf and your kids, the sooner I can tell him so he won't be harping down my neck until I tell him who 'my new boyfriend is'. I didn't want to rush this, but it seems luck isn't on my side anymore, I've got the two things I wanted, now I'm screwed." she closed her eyes and put her head against her closet door, "Thank you for all the hickies that are obscenely obvious by the way.." Olivia chuckled, "Anyway.. let's all go get some food. I'm starving and I'm sure Noah is too. When did you and him wake up this morning? And when did he eat?"

"Sorry, that wasn't my intention, just wanted to be safe. It may be rushed, but at least we'll get it over with sooner right?" he smiled lightly, "You'll get your luck back soon, it's just taking a short break, and in my defense, we both didn't think you were going to have any company today.. at least not Fin. And food to me sounds amazing, I got up about 8:15, Noah woke up around 8:25, and after I changed his diaper and out of his PJ's I fed him around 8:35. Gave him a bath around 9:30, then him and I were just playing with his blocks -I think you've got yourself an architect in the making with him. I heard your phone go off, but figured if it was work, they'd call, so I just left it on the counter where you put it last night. Also that it wasn't my business who was texting you, so ugh, yeah.." he smiled at her, knowing she'd appreciate his respect for her privacy. She smiled back at him, and set Noah far enough back on her bed that he wouldn't fall off if he decided to crawl a little. She then went over to where Elliot was standing, wrapped her arms around his neck -to which he put his arms on her hips-, and pecked his lips lightly once, twice, and a third time, before opening her mouth to him for a quick escalated-in-emotion kiss. It ended too quickly for either of their liking, but both knew there would be other times to continue. Olivia pulled away, but winked at Elliot before turning around and saying,

"Okay boys, let's go eat lunch, then that handsome devil over on my bed can take a nap!" she smiled brightly, I've got the two of the top five most important men in my life right here.

"MaMa!" Noah yelled and clapped his hands together and reached for her.

"Hello there sweet boy! You ready to go eat? Hmm? Yeah, I bet you are! Let's go see what momma and daddy can scrounge up. Daddy, you want to carry your baby boy for momma?" she turned to look at Elliot and he was smiling watching them interact, but when she turned, he met her eyes. His smile was meeting his eyes now unlike the first time he had saw her out front on her buildings steps.

"Sure, of course, I'd love to carry my baby boy for his momma." he smiled brightly, and his eyes looked like endless oceans of blue with calm seas. He didn't seem as anxious that had plagued him this morning, just forty-five minutes ago. He didn't realize it, but with him not being so anxious, he was doing wonders for Olivia's nerves. She knew if he was calm and relaxed, she could be too. The three of them walked out together to her kitchen, and Elliot put Noah in his high chair while Olivia looked around in the fridge for something the three of them could eat. She found some stuff for Noah, but nothing that would satisfy hers or Elliot's tastes.

"Well, I found some peaches I can mix in with some of Noah's rice cereal.. but not much for you or I. Want to order something?" she asked him, closing the fridge's door, after getting the peaches out.

"Sure, what sounds good? I'll call while you mix up Noah's food." he continued to smile.

"Mmmm, I don't know, just choose something, we are in Manhattan, there's a ton of places to choose from that deliver, and that's good, thank-you." she commented back as she was making her way over to the cabinet to get one of Noah's bowls down. She continued to make Noah's lunch while Elliot chose something, called wherever he ordered from, and finally walked over to her and kissed her cheek, "Chicken Alfredo for two sound good?"

She nodded, "Sure. Thanks El. You didn't have to use your credit card you know, I could've paid for mine at least. After Noah's down for the count, I'll go get you enough to pay for my half out of my wallet by the door.. How long did they say it'd be?"

"Liv, I got it covered, you don't have to repay me with money. You're already repaying me by allowing me to be here, that's all I can ask for, besides you being yourself. And they said it'd be around twenty-five minutes, it's still a little early for everyone else, even on a weekend." he chuckled and brought his arms around her stomach in a strong hug from behind, "I love you sweetheart." he whispered into the back of her neck and kissed it lightly. She leaned back into him and stood there, just letting him hug her tightly for a few minutes before whispering back, "I love you too Elliot." and wrapping her arms around his on her stomach. It felt like they had been doing this all their lives, it felt right to be standing here in each others arms, just relaxing, and slowly swaying to the music in their own heads. Until, Noah decided to break the relaxing silence, that is, by banging his hands against the tray part of his high chair,

"MaMa! Foo?" he looked at Olivia to Elliot, then said, "Foo?"

Elliot and Olivia both looked at each other, Olivia shook her head with happy tears in her eyes, "No, I know what you're thinking, but no. He hasn't said anything besides Ma.." she walked over to Noah, and smiled at him, "You want some food big boy? You're growing up so fast! Stop it!" she chuckled, picking up her son and giving him a squeeze. Noah wiggled to get out of her grasp,

"MaMa! No foo?!" he asked a little more exasperated.

"Somebodies getting a little impatient to eat huh? Daddy, you want to come help momma feed the little monkey?" Olivia laughingly asked as put him back in his high chair and walked back over to the counter and picked up his food, mixed in the peaches with his rice-cereal.

"I don't know, are we going to have to take showers too after we feed the monkey?" he laughed.

"Yes, my guess is yes, we will.. but we could save water if we showered together. After we get him fed, ourselves fed, and we talk, I think we'll be ready for a shower, of course." she looked at him with a mischievous grin on her face, but was dead serious.

"Sounds like a plan to me!" he couldn't help but smile at the thought of what taking a shower with Olivia Benson would be like... "When our food gets here, do you want to answer the door, or me?" he asked trying to get the picture of Olivia, stark naked with soap running over her breasts, and down her slender frame out of his head, which wasn't working very well, he had to shake his head.

"I'll get it, just to be safe.." she said. Elliot nodded in an agreement. They both made their ways to the seats on either side of Noah and proceeded to feed him, which in fact got them both nearly covered in about as much rice-cereal with peaches as Noah had on him. Though it was a great time had by all, Noah was nearly out by the time Elliot and Olivia's food had arrived,

"Hey babe, you want to get everything we need, including a short amount of wine while I put this sack of potatoes to sleep for his nap?" Liv asked after she had gotten the food, and El nodded his head as his answer.

-End Chapter Ten-

A/N: Okay, first and foremost, I'd like to point out a mistake in an earlier chapter (chapter 3, I believe) when Olivia was talking to Lucy about her mother. I had said that she -Olivia- was 11 in '78.. I'm not sure what I was thinking there honestly, because for the purpose of this story, everyone is about ten years younger. Therefore, instead of having to go in, and change that chapter, I figured I could just admit the mistake here. So to set it straight, Elliot was born 10-20-77, and Olivia was born 1-23-78 (Yes, I know, I used Mariska's actual birthday -just different year- as Olivia's, but it made it easier to remember). I think that's all the changes to the ages of anyone. Okay! Now that I think that clears that up at least somewhat.. {review/send a message if you have a question, or are confused} Anyway, also, if it probably seemed forced to make them talk faster, and you'd be right. I did intentionally (it came to me as I was writing this chapter) have Fin decide to move into her building, this way they talk sooner, we get to have a little bit of smut in the middle after they talk, then comes the reunion with Elliot's kids, and finally the reaction from Rafael -which will likely be before everyone else in the squad, still deciphering that part.. So that's it for now, peeps. Hope you are still enjoying this, as I'm still enjoying writing it for you guys. As always, you want something to happen or just like what you're reading, voice it below, or in a message to me, but it's not needed to go on. Oh! One last thing, I'm moving in 11 days, and I'm not entirely sure when we are losing the internet in the house we're at now, then gaining it after we move, so I'm going to write the next two chapters before posting either. (I'm hoping to write, then post both before I move, but sorry ahead of time if I don't.)
