When Cragen went to put her into the car, she wouldn't let go of him.
"Liv you have to let go so I can get you into the car okay?" She shook her head. Cragen sighed. At least he got something. "Liv honey you have to let go." he said quietly.
"NO! please! Please don't let go of me! I'm scared!" she cried.
"Liv its okay, ive got you. Ive got you." he said as he sat on the ground. He held her in his arms as they cried together.
Cragen has always loved her as a daughter. He hated seeing her in pain. Especially pain inflicted by the person she was in love with.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Liv, were here." he said to her as they reached her building. Cragen got out of the car first and helped her out. He walked her upstairs and into her apartment. He was appalled at the state it was in. her bed was made up on the couch, her hamper overflowing with clothes.
"Why don't you go put on some pajamas and ill make you something to eat." he said. She nodded and retreated into her bathroom after grabbing some things from her drawer.
When Olivia was done, she came back into the room to the smell of coffee.
"Sorry liv, this was all you had." he said. She nodded and gave him a light smile when he handed her the coffee.
"Do you want me to stay with you for a while?" he asked gently. She nodded.
"okay why don't we watch a movie, but first, im gonna clean up that cut. Is that okay?" he asked her. She nodded again. Cragen went to the bathroom and got out some Band-Aids and Neosporin. He returned to Olivia lying on the couch staring at the black screened television.
"Liv can you sit up for me?" Olivia sat up. Cragen shuddered when he saw the gash on her cheek. He didn't know that it was this bad. He cleaned it up quickly, but softly. He didn't want to hurt her anymore.
ELLIOT- ELLIOT- ELLIOT -ELLIOT- ELLIOT -ELLIOT -ELLIOT- ELLIOT
It was dark in his mind. He could hear yelling in the background but didn't know where it was coming from. His head throbbed along with his heart. He tried to move his arms but noticed that they were handcuffed. "What the hell?" he said aloud.
Fin and Munch stopped yelling at each other and looked at Elliot with hatred.
"What the hell guys? Why the hell am I handcuffed to the fucking table?" he asked them.
"You son-of-a-bitch, you know exactly why the fuck your sitting here." said Fin as he got into Elliot's face.
Elliot looked confused. "What? Guys please! What's going on?" he pleaded.
"You sick bastard. You knew she was already hurting and you knew that made her weak. You waited till the perfect time to attack her! You sick bastard!" yelled Munch.
Fin was astonished. He'd never seen his partner like this.
"I attacked somebody?" he asked. Elliot felt like crying. "Who?"
"Olivia." said Fin.
Elliot felt as if the wind had been knocked out of him. He couldn't breathe. Ohgodohgodohgodohgod. He thought.
"I….I….attacked…Liv?" he asked trying to stop the tears that had started rolling down his face. "what did I do to her?" he asked.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Liv?" he said quietly. Olivia turned her face to him, returning from the far away land she was in.
"Hmm?" she asked."
"You know Im going to have to ask you what happened sometime." he stated. Olivia looked down. "I think it would be best for you to tell me now, otherwise Elliot will get out soon, but im not going to push you." he looked at her with pleading eyes.
"no its okay. Ill tell you." she said. Olivia sighed. She looked scared. Cragen got up from the chair he was in and sat next to her on the couch. Olivia scooted closer to him and laid her head on his chest as he wrapped his arms around her.
"Do you mind if I tape this? It may help so you may not have to testify." he asked.
"Its fine." she stated. He put it on the table and pressed record.
"whenever your ready Liv, and remember you don't have to do this." he said.
She only nodded.
"I was in the cribs…sleeping. I heard the door slam. He came up to me and grabbed me by the arms. Shoved me up against the wall….and…he called me a bitch…I told him he was hurting me and asked if he was drunk. He told me…..he told me to shut up and then he kissed me. I started to yell for help, but he put his hand over my mouth and shoved me harder into the wall. He told me to shut up, then hit me." Olivia stopped, trying to stop her body from shaking.
"its okay sweetie. Im right here. Its alright." said Cragen in a soothing voice. "he cant hurt you anymore." Olivia nodded and continued her story.
"I was afraid of what he would do if I didn't get help, so I screamed again. He hit me, so I screamed again.
"and that's when we ran in" he stated. Olivia looked at him confused. "He did more?" he asked. She nodded. Cragen looked down as he told her to continue.
"He umm…well…he…he."
Cragen noticed she was struggling to talk about it and if she had told him this much, he was afraid of what she would tell him.
"Olivia its okay. You can tell me and im not going to think any less of you. you know that right?" he asked. Silence filled the room. "Liv, I love you like a daughter and im just trying to help you. You've gotta tell me what he did sweetheart." he said softly. Olivia was crying harder then.
"He…he raped me." she said breaking down and bursting into tears. Cragen started bawling too.
"Liv remember I recorded this and I need your permission to send it to Fin and Munch." he said. Olivia nodded.
"It's fine." she said as she got up. She ran into the bathroom. Cragen heard the shower turn on. He bolted towards her bathroom door.
"Liv no! We need a rape kit. I know this is hard but we need the kit to get him okay?" he heard her sobbing as she turned the shower off. She opened the door and found herself buried in Cragen's arms once again. "I know this is hard sweetie and im gonna kill him for doing this to you." he said.
"I just…how could he do this to me? I loved him!" she sobbed.
"I know you did. I know." he said. Cragen ushered her back to the couch and sat with her until she fell asleep. He then got up and walked onto her terrace and took out his phone.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Tutuola." he answered. He could hear his captain crying. "Captain whats wrong? Is everything okay?" he asked.
"No Fin, its not, im sending over the confession. Has he woken up yet?" he asked.
"Yeah and he says he doesn't remember anything." he told him.
"Let the fucking son-of-a-bitch listen to the tape. Then shoot him if you want. Make sure its quick and dirty and make it look like an accident. Give him a gun and make him fire it so that it looks like he attacked you first."
"Captain?!?!" he asked.
"trust me Fin, you'll want to after you hear this tape. The fucking bastard raped her." said Cragen. He immediately hung up.
Fin looked down at the disconnected phone in disbelief.
He then saw the text message along with the confession tape. He walked straight into the interrogation room with tears rolling down his face.
"Fin, what's wrong?" asked Elliot. Fin ran over to Elliot and repeatedly punched him.
"YOU FUCKING BASTARD! I CANT BELIEVE YOU! SHE LOVED YOU! YOU SICK SON-OF-A-BITCH!!" he screamed.
"FIN THAT'S EHOUGH!" yelled Munch as he pulled his partner off of the bloodied Elliot. "What happened?" he asked softly.
"Cragen sent me the confession tape." he stated. Elliot looked down.
Fin and Munch sat on one side of the table and looked at Elliot when they played the tape, and towards the end they were all crying.
"He…he raped me." she said.
"NO OH GOD PLEASE NO. PLEASE! OH OLIVIA IM SOOO SORRY! I NEVER MEANT TO HURT YOU! NOOO. OH GOD." he screamed.
Just then Fin got up and took out his gun. He walked towards Elliot, cocked it, and pointed it at him.
