Sorry it is so late. Been busy with school, work, and just lots a family drama. ENJOY!

"What?"

"He filed for custody, he wants Rylee."

"Liv it's ok, he's not going to get her I promise. I'm going to call Alex."

"Hello?"

Alex answered.

"Hey Alex it's Elliot."

"Hey El what's up."

"Jake filed for ful custody of Rylee!"

"What?! That son-of-a-bitch!"

"Alex calm down Liv needs your help."

"Ok ok, tell her to grab the papers he signed giving his rights away, and the paper she was served, and meet me at my office."

"Ok bye." Elliot turned around to tell me but I was gone. He walked to Rylees bedroom and saw me sitting on the bed with Rylee sitting on my lap reading her a story.

"Liv."

"What? I can't lose her El, she's my world." I put Rylee on the floor to play, and I walked to my bedroom and sat on my bed.

"You won't lose her Liv I promise, Jake signed over his parental rights the judge will see the papers and have to rule with you, not to mention he's a fallin' down drunk, he gets high and I bet his home isn't even suitable for children."

"What if he gets visitaion rights? I can't let him near her, see doesn't need that in her life she needs a father like you El."

"Liv I'm honored, I would love to adopt Rylee legally, if it's ok with you. But let's get through this first."

"El I would love for you to be Rylee's father! I agree let's get past this whole mess first. What did Alex say?"

"She wants us to come down to her office and for you to bring the papers that he signed giving his parental rights away."

"Ok let me get Rylee ready. You're coming with me!"

"Yeah I know I saw that one coming."

"I can't have you leave my side, I need you!"

"I promise I won't leave your side or Rylee's for that matter. Let's go."

I got Rylee ready, and we left go to got Alexs office.

"Ant Lex!" Rylee screamed.

"Hey cutie pie." She said and tooked her from my arms. "Liv how are you?"

"Um...honestly scared I'm gonna lose my little girl."

"You won't lose Rylee I promise you, this B-A-S-T-U-R-D will not get her!"

"Thanks Alex for doing this, thanks for spelling that out too Rylee is picking up everything I say."

"Yeah anytime. Ok do you have the papers.

"Yeah right here in Rylee's diaper bag." I pulled out the documents and gave them to her.

"Ok and your sure this is his signature?"

"Yeah Cragen was even there to witness him sign it."

"Ok will then we will have to call him in here too."

"I'll call him." I said and dialed Don's number.

"Hello?"

"Hey dad, can you do me a favor.?"

"Yeah anything Liv."

"Can you come down to Alex's office Rylee and I could really use your help."

"Yeah I'll be there in 10."

"Ok thanks. bye." I hung up the phone. "He is on his way over he will be here in 10. Jake also came over to my place the other night he was drunk and I'm pretty sure a little high, he tried to grab Rylee, I asked him to leave but he barged in and I ran to my room, grabbed my gun and I threatend him and he finally left, Rylee was asleep on my shoulder the whole time."

"This helps a lot since he was drunk and high, he tried to get rough with Rylee so that will give the judge more ammunition on him and she will more than likely side with you and Rylee will stay with you." She said and put Rylee down to play on the floor.

"What if he gets visitation?" Elliot asked.

"I will make sure he doesn't, Elliot if you are there that will tell the judge that there is a father figure in Rylee's life and give the judge another reason to side with you guys."

"Oh I'm going to be threre I'm not leaving Liv's side." He said and wrapped his arm around my waist.

"Olivia what is it?"

"Ganpa!"

"Hey hows my Rylee Roo?" He asked and picked her up.

"Good."

"Thanks for coming." Elliot said.

"Yeah whats up?"

"Jake filed for custody of Rylee."

"WHAT! That son-of-a-Bi..."

"Language!" I interupted him.

"Sorry. What are you going to do? We can't let him see her."

"Yeah I know thats why we called Alex maybe she can help us clear this up, but from the sounds of it the judge is going to side with us."

"Well lets hope so. But I'm pretty sure that the judge will side with you." Cragen said.

"I'm pretty sure she will. It looks like the court date is set next Thursday."

"Ok well we will be ready for court that a-s-s-h-o-l-e is not going to get my daughter!" I exclaimed.

I picked up Rylee and and Don took us to dinner then to a movie, after the movie we finally said our goodbyes and went back to my apartment.

The next morning we met with Jake and his attorney. "Hi Ms. Benson I'm..."

"Yeah I know who you are langan?"

"Ok what is this meeting about?" Alex asked.

"I just want my little girl in my life." Jake said.

"You don't deserve her you bastard, you left her when I found out I was pregnant, you were just the sperm donor."

"Don't you take that tone with me!" Jake yelled and grabbed my arm ready to slap me.

"Don't you touch her!" Elliot yelled after he punched Jake in the face.

"You son-of-a-bitch you punched me." He yelled at Elliot.

"Only because you were going to hit her."

"Who the hell do you think you are?!"Jaked asked.

"He is my boyfriend, but thats none of your god damn business!" I yelled back at him.

"Ok everyone just sit down lets calm down." Alex said.

"Ok Ms. Benson give Jake weekends with Rylee and we won't take her from you." Langan said.

"Ha thats a chance in hell Langan and you know it! We have the papers he signed giving up his parental rights, he has a drinking problem and a drug problem not to mention he just tried to hit my client, lets go to court we both know I'll win."

"You didn't tell me you signed over your rights, we can't go to court with this, the judge will look at the papers and side with Olivia." Langan told Jake.

"What?! No I didn't mean it, this isn't fair I will get custody!"

"Mr. Hannigan, your ex has a steady job you don't, she doesn't have a drinking or drug problem you do, she has a clean/safe house you don't! If you honestly think you can win your wrong I will crush you in court, you will be wise to listen to your lawyer and just drop it. I think were done here." With that we walked out of the office.
