I'm back already! There is going to be a time jump, and for sure some drama between these two lovebirds, but don't worry. There will be no break-up and no major sadness. BTW, Chris Meloni's tweet the other day about Olivia investigating a man's sodomy with a banana; "#WORD"...PRICELESS! Enjoy this chapter. XOXO

Chapter 10: Sweetie

About three months had passed since baby Eli's delivery and things had been going well, except for Olivia's new predicament. Things had been going well. They had established a great schedule where Elliot helped Kathy with the baby as much as possible and she, too, tried her best to help the mom and newborn get as comfortable as possible. She was now 28 weeks pregnant and couldn't believe that she had safely made it to seven months without any problems. She knew that as horrible as delivering at this stage would be, at least the baby had higher chances of survival, god forbid there was ever a chance of premature birth due to complications. Until the other day when she had false contractions. They were in the squad room when Olivia started to feel faint:

Flashback:

She sat back in her chair, staring up at Elliot. There were days like this where she just cherished being able to work and play with this man. As he smiled up at her, noticing her gaze, she felt a huge pain in her stomach and gasped. She stood, and Elliot rushed to her side and asked her what was wrong, but before she could answer she lost consciousness and passed out.

Flashback Over

When she made it to the hospital, and Dr. Vega arrived, she was instructed to bed rest and very light activity. She was angry.

Fuming.

Being on bed rest would mean no work. No seeing Elliot all of the time and being able to talk to someone. This would mean Elliot would have a new a partner.

She never was the jealous type, but being at home alone without the love of her life there would be so boring. The doctor also said that on days where she wasn't feeling increased fatigue, she was allowed to drive and maybe go visit Elliot at the precinct, or go out to lunch. She hoped she would be experiencing a lot of those days where she could join her boyfriend for lunch, or ask Casey to meet her for some well-deserved girl talk. She figured that she wouldn't be alone, considering her and Elliot moved into a new spacious apartment together. She dipped into the hefty inheritance her mother left her-and let's just say that the family would be set for life with the inheritance.

When you entered the apartment, to the left was a kitchen with a huge expanse of granite countertop and barstool chair to accompany it. Everything in the kitchen was stainless steel and mahogany cabinets. It looked state-of-the-art.

To the right of the entrance was a huge living room, with the biggest flat-screen television hanging on the wall in front of a huge sectional that allowed you to relax and lay back all of the way. Other arm chairs and love seats accompanied. The apartment, or rather penthouse, had six bedrooms and two bathrooms, and even had a balcony. One bedroom for Elliot and Olivia, Maureen and Kathleen would share one, and Dickie and Lizzie would have their own bedrooms. Baby Eli and their baby would share the huge nursery, since they were only months apart. Directly after the counter were a set of steps leading upstairs to the bathrooms and bedrooms. It felt like a home rather than their old shabby apartments.

Ever since they moved in together, the kids had been stopping by a lot more frequently, especially to check up on how Olivia's been doing. Today would be the day Cragen assigned Elliot a new partner. She knew it was wrong, but she hoped it wasn't a girl. To her luck it probably would be. She knows Elliot would never cheat on her; their love, their bond and relationship are way too strong for intruders to make an appearance, but her extreme bloating of her stomach and her face made her feel unsexy, undesired, despite the face that Elliot still couldn't get enough of her.

She thought that as the pregnancy progressed she wouldn't want sex anymore, or even worse, that Elliot wouldn't want to make love to her when she was so big, but both of those thoughts were absolutely wrong. He still go turned on by her and little things she would do would set him on fire. The thought of her carrying his child was enough to make him happy, and teary-eyed, and horny. She even went out of her way to purchase some pregnant-friendly lingerie that made her feel sexy. He thought everything she did was sexy, but her feeling comfortable in her own beautiful body was also important to him.

Besides not wanting to leave Olivia alone at home, Elliot was nervous about his first day back with a partner. Lately, for the past couple of days, he had been working by himself or teaming up with Munch or Fin. They didn't have any major cases, so it wasn't a problem to team up with the other guys. But he knew it wouldn't last forever. He missed his partner, his beautiful girlfriend, but he knew he would rather have his baby and his love safe than have her busting perps with him on the streets. Without a doubt he'd rather her be in bed.

When he got to work that day, he wasn't surprised to see the Captain and another unrecognizable figure in his office, both seated and he assumed it was his new temporary partner. Munch and Fin were also at their desks. He knew he was late and for lack of better words, it was his morning rendezvous with Olivia that led him to be late. But he wasn't complaining at all. He treasured all of his moments with Olivia, especially now that she was insecure about her perfect body, the body preparing for their child.

When he sat at his desk and prepared to complete yesterday's DD-5's he left uncompleted so he can skip out early and be with Olivia, he was interrupted by the opening of the Captain's door. He saw his captain walk past him first and then a woman, around his age or a couple years younger walk out. He knew this was his new partner.

He wasn't going to lie; she was a beautiful woman. But not nearly as beautiful as his Olivia. In fact, she was pretty different from Olivia. She was skinny like a twig, lacking all the curves that made Elliot wild about Olivia. Her hair was a brownish, orange color and her eyes were green; they didn't clash well with his stormy blue as his did with those chocolate brown ones he always loved. She had a smirk on her face when she realized who her partner was. He could care less, he was only here because it was his job or else he'd be home with his pregnant girlfriend. But he knew that while he wasn't affected by her looks, Munch and Fin were. You could see their tongues hit the ground and their jaws slack open. Cragen laughed and introduced everyone.

"I see you've all met Stabler's new partner. Ladies and gentlemen, this is Detective Rachel Owens from the 2-7. She's on loan until Olivia is back, which considering her health and three-month maternity sabbatical, she will likely be with us for the next five months if everything holds up. Please welcome Detective Owens as you would Olivia, and get to work. There may not be an ongoing case, but I haven't received any DD-5's on my desk yet," he added with a smirk. Elliot turned and plastered a fake smile on his face, knowing that while every other man in this precinct drooled over her, he would not be fascinated with this girl. But, for now, she seemed nice and he didn't want to be an asshole from the start, so he extended his hand towards Rachel and she grabbed it tightly. He didn't miss her thumb caressing the back of his hand.

"Well, Detective Stabler, it's good to finally put a face to the name. I've heard so many great things about you and your partner. I didn't know she was pregnant," Rachel added slyly. She knew exactly who he was. Him and his partner, Olivia, had been in the newspapers so frequently she felt she knew them personally. She definitely wanted to get to know Elliot better, though.

"Yea, well my partner, who's also my girlfriend, is on bedrest due to doctor's orders for the safety of her pregnancy, so we're hoping the rest goes by really fast," he added with exaggeration on the 'really'. He wasn't liking the looks and gleams Rachel was giving him already. He had nothing to hide, no desire to cover that would give away any attraction to this woman. Ever since he'd met Olivia it was like he only had eyes for her. Every other woman paled in comparison to not only Olivia's beauty, but her character as well.

Rachel didn't seem to get the hint, but let go of his hand, just to rub his back tenderly.

"Well, it would be absolutely great to meet her one day, but right now, the two of us have to get to work." He was extremely annoyed by her inappropriate conduct and couldn't wait to go home and tell Olivia about his crazy temporary partner.

Dani Beck had not sat well with him in the beginning, but he warmed up to her. Warmed up, for sure, he thought with a groan. He never meant to kiss her, especially so passionately up against the side of his Jeep. He was missing Olivia, he missed his family; all he wanted was love and affection that nobody seemed to be rewarding him with. And Dani was desperate and vying for his love, too. He knew that Olivia was shaken up by how they reached an intimate level in a month of partnership, meanwhile he rarely showed how much he cared for his real partner in the eight years they knew each other. It was only recently that she felt how deep his love runs. He hopes that Olivia, a hormonal mess currently, wouldn't be disappointed or jealous that he was partnered with a female detective. He knew 110% that he wasn't interested but he couldn't speak for his temporary partner who seemed to love to shake things up with him sexually and inappropriately.

...

By the end of the day, they were spent and just wanted to relax. When Munch suggested drinks at the local pub, Maloney's, he accepted and called Olivia to see if she would join them. He wouldn't have invited her or gone himself if Rachel acted up at all during the day, but she seemed to tame herself really well. When he called Olivia, who seemed more than happy to join them at the bar, she said she would take a cab, despite Elliot's desire to pick her up, so he headed out with Munch, Fin, Casey and Rachel.

When they got there, they ordered several pitchers of beer. He was disappointed that when they sat in the circular booth, Rachel slipped next to him, but it left an open seat on the other side of him that he wanted to save for Olivia. Munch sat to Rachel's right, while Fin was seated next to him, leaving Casey across Olivia's expected seat. When he heard the door open, he knew it was her. He didn't even have to look up. It was weird sometimes about their connection. It was like the both of them could sense the other's presence, or even feel when the other one was in trouble. It was a heavy subject that he didn't want weighing on his mind, so when he saw her approaching, he stood up to greet her.

"Hey, baby, I missed you all day." She wrapped her arms around his neck and gave him searing kiss on the lips, unaware of the pair of eyes that eyed her enviously. They continued their affectionate embrace, not intentionally, but because they truly missed being in the comfort of each other's arms or in the other one's presence constantly throughout the day.

"Mmm, Liv, me too, honey, it was so boring today at work without you."

"Hey, Elliot, thats not fair. I tried on many occasions to brighten up your day and kiss the pain away but you ignored me," added John. They all laughed and amidst his hysterical laughter, Elliot chimed in "Shut up, John!"

Elliot gave Olivia another peck and wrapped his right arm around her, directing her to the table. Casey yelped and rushed to give Olivia a hug without squishing her, scared that any sudden movement or pressure would hurt Olivia and Elliot's baby. Olivia made her way around the table and when she got to Rachel, she extended her hand.

"Hi, I'm Olivia, Elliot's partner, well, girlfriend. It's so nice to meet you!" Rachel took her hand eagerly and Olivia almost scoffed at her next words.

"Wow, Olivia, it's a pleasure to finally meet the regarded Detective Benson. Elliot's told me so many good things about you. Oh, forgive me for asking, how far along are you? You must be due any day!" Olivia was turned off by her last comment, considering her belly looked normal for a 28-week pregnant woman; she wasn't large at all.

"Oh, I'm 28 weeks, so I still have another couple months left to go," she wrapped her arm around Elliot and looked up at him with the true love she felt for him, but did it on purpose to make Rachel angry. He put his hand on her belly and gave her a tender kiss on the lips. "But Elliot and I can't wait to meet our little girl. We've been picking names out and decorating the nursery, so my Elliot is a very busy man."

Casey, Munch and Fin all knew what the couple before them was doing and they couldn't help but laugh. They all saw how Rachel seemed to hang on Elliot, even though she proved to be mild during the day. They couldn't stand that after all of these years of wanting their favorite detectives to be together, another "brother-in-blue" would come in and try to flirt with Elliot, who would never even fathom the idea of cheating on the love of his life.

Everyone sat down and Elliot ordered Olivia a coke with lemon slice, her favorite simple and nonalcoholic beverage for the duration of her pregnancy. Everyone started to joke around and bullshit. Elliot limited himself to two glasses of beer, while the rest were starting to make their way to drunk. Except for Olivia. Oh, and Rachel, who was way past drunk. Everyone noticed her sloppy actions.

Olivia had excused herself to the bathroom, needing to take one of her well-expected pee breaks, but Elliot insisted on her not going alone, so Casey accompanied her along. He was grateful for that because he knew he would get ripped a new asshole for entering the ladies' room. It was like something snapped in his deranged partners mind, because as soon as Olivia and Casey disappeared, she started to let her hands roam Elliot's body, starting at his hands.

"Mmm, Elliot, when my Captain transferred me to Special Victims, I never thought that I would have a partner as sexy as you." Everyone turned to the wild detective with anger and shock embedded in their eyes. How dare she flirt with a taken man, whose pregnant girlfriend was using the bathroom.

"Listen, Rachel, you're really drunk. I think it's time to go home now.." Rachel didn't let him finish the sentence.

"But, baby, we just got here, I don't want to go yet. I wanna have some fun," she added with a gleam in her eye as she moved her hand towards Elliot's groin, squeezing it before he could grab her wrist. He didn't react to her touch because she wasn't his Olivia, and he was absolutely turned off by this girl's behavior. He grabbed her wrist and pushed her hand away from him.

"Rachel, stop please, you're embarrassing yourself here," he chided her. She wasn't having anything to do with it. In fact, she started towards his neck, intending on kissing him there, when she heard a loud voice that scared her more than she thought.

"He doesn't want your advances, Rachel. Get off of him now." Olivia appeared and was fuming; not at Elliot, but at this bitch who thought she could come in and take her man. Rachel stood up and despite her fear of what the trained pregnant detective would do, she got up in her face before anyone could intervene.

"What are you going to do? He's clearly interested in me, sweetie, I could feel it," she took her hand and intimidated an erect penis, and Olivia, her hormones on overdrive mixed with her hatred towards this home wrecker, slapped her hard across the face.

"Listen, sweetie," she emphasized, "that's my man who you're so interested in. And believe me, he doesn't entertain trash like you. So you better get the fuck out of my face and away from my boyfriend before I show you who's really boss around here." Maybe it was Olivia's words or she suddenly sobered up, but Rachel looked up, grabbed her jacket from behind her, and bolted for the door. Olivia smiled in satisfaction and before she could react, Elliot gathered her in his arms, put his hands on her cheeks, and kissed her with an unbridled passion that she so craved from him all of the time.

"That was by far the fucking sexiest thing I've ever seen you do," Elliot whispered in a husky voice. She noticed his arousal and played along with it. Elliot's kiss lit up places within her that she thought her pregnancy killed.

"Mm, sexier than when I gave you a lap dance? Or when I modeled my pregnancy lingerie for you? Or, how about the time where I..." he cut her off with a kiss, and not letting him forget them, their colleagues made wolf whistles and laughed at their intimate moment. They all laughed and Fin managed to lighten the mood.

"Damn, that sneaky little rat left us to foot the bill."

Everyone headed home shortly after that and both Elliot and Olivia were happy that he was sober. They got home and Elliot couldn't contain his arousal anymore. He picked Olivia up bridal style and carried her up the steps and into their room. He gently laid her down on the bed, and started to undress her delicately, always trying to be careful of their baby. When he revealed the bare skin of her baby bump, he placed a bunch of kisses there, which seemed to always make Olivia cry tears of happiness. His favorite thing was to talk to his baby.

"Hi, baby, Daddy and Mommy want you to stay in there for just a teensy bit longer, but we can't wait to meet you honey. Daddy can't wait to meet his little princess." Olivia brought his face up to hers and pulled him into a passionate kiss, and knowing that her hormones were on high, he gently slipped into her warmth, and he smiled when he heard her gasp and moan in pleasure. He started out slow, until Olivia told him to pick up the pace. He loved when her angry horny hormones came out and she threatened to "fuck herself with the vibrator in her drawer if he didn't fuck her harder". Her aggressiveness made him laugh.

Before he knew what was happening, Olivia flipped them over and started to ride him like no tomorrow. They always came to their release so fast when they were in this position. After a couple of moments, he heard her moans strain and her breaths turn into sharp and short gasps. He knew they had to be quieter considering all of the kids, minus Eli, who was at Kathy's for the week, were under one roof. He knew it was harder and harder for her to stay quiet, all of her senses were heightened.

"El, baby, I'm cumming..."

"Cum, baby, cum for me, Liv." All she needed were his words, and his finger swirling around her clit. Her nub of pleasure exploded and she let go, having one of the best orgasms of her life. She moaned lowly and gasped his name, "El!" It felt so damn good to be with him. But then again, every time her and Elliot had sex, it was like they outperformed themselves from the last time.

Feeling spent, the two sated detectives rolled off of each other, but quickly found their way back to each other. They cuddled up next to each other and the humming of their voices and the beating of each other's hearts ultimately lulled them to sleep. It was the best way to end the day. In each other's arms. Despite the troubles they faced today with Elliot's crazy new partner, who seemed to be nothing short of a nymphomaniac, they knew that landing in each other's arms was always the best part of their days.

...

When they awoke the next morning, they knew that no matter how remorseful Rachel felt, they had to make her jealous. Elliot planned to bring Olivia in to the precinct today. Elliot woke up shortly before Olivia, trying to rouse the kids from their slumber and get them ready for school. When she walked downstairs in her robe, everyone stared at her and she laughed.

"Good morning, guys. Why's everyone so giddy this morning?" She asked this as she rounded the table to give everyone a kiss on the forehead, and when stopped at Elliot to give him a tender kiss on the lips, he quickly pulled her into his lap. At this, the kids snickered and tried to cover it up.

"What'd we do, guys," asked Elliot.

"Well," Kathleen started, "let's just say we knew you guys had a lot of fun last night." She blushed immediately after saying this, but not redder than Elliot and Olivia.

"Oh my god, guys. I'm so sorry you had to hear... that." Olivia didn't know how else to apologize but she felt awful for scarring these children for life. They all laughed and said how it was okay. They were old enough to understand sex. They were laughing when Dickie made his next comment.

"Believe me, Liv, I do not mind at all," he added with a smirk, and Elliot punched him on the side of the shoulder while his older siblings all flicked him and yelled at him.

"Ew, Dickwad! You're a pig!"

What a way to end the story. But, finally. I wrote this in one day and I wanted it to be a long chapter, around 10K words, but I promise, next chapter will be a lot longer. Maybe I'll skip to the birth of the baby. Hope you guys enjoyed this chapter. I love getting your reviews; you guys are amazing readers. I'm sorry if I added too much smut. I just love this couple so much.
