A/N: Sorry it took so long and sorry it's short but I had to set the mood for what is going to happen next. Please read and review.

Eight pm came and Elliot still hadn't returned home or rang to say why he was so late. Olivia was sick of waiting for him so she decided to head down to the hospital without him.
She changed the triplets before putting Aarliyn and Anna in to the double stroller and put the diaper bag in the basket underneath before putting the baby pouch carrier on her front.
"Come on, little man." She whispered as she slipped Brayden in to the carrier, facing her before leaving the house, locking the door behind her.
Olivia caught a cab down to the hospital and walked in to Casey's hospital room.
Casey looked up and smiled. "Hey Liv."
"Hey." She replied as she sat in the chair beside the bed with Aarilyn and Anna sound asleep in the double stroller beside her and Brayden sound asleep in the baby carrier with his tiny head resting on her chest.
Casey looked around for Elliot, expecting him to walk in but she didn't see him.
"Where's Elliot?" She asked in a whisper so she didn't disturb the sleeping triplets.
Olivia shrugged. "I don't know. I called him a dozen times, all my calls were rejected so I called the squad room and Munch told me that he had to see Melinda about some DNA results but that was over two and a half hours ago." She replied before being disturbed by Anna crying.
Anna woke Aarilyn and she woke Brayden so all three triplets were now screaming.
"Shh, Brayden, it's ok." She whispered as she rubbed his back.
"I can feed Brayden, if you want, so you can feed the girls from in the stroller." Casey offered.
"Thanks." Olivia replied as she took Brayden out of the baby carrier before passing him to Casey.
"Here you go." She said as she passed Casey a bottle.
"Wow, how is this still warm?" Casey asked as she slipped the tip of the bottle in the hungry boy's mouth.
"I warmed them before I left and put them in something to keep them warm because I knew they would wake for a feed anytime soon." Olivia explained as she fed Aarilyn and Anna.
After the triplets were burped and changed, Olivia placed Aarilyn and Anna back in the double storller and Brayden back in the baby pouch carrier.
"Visiting hours are over, miss." A young blonde haired, blued eyed female nurse said as she walked in to check Casey's vitals.
Olivia nodded and stood up. "I'll see you later, Case."
"Thanks for coming."
"Sure." Olivia said and walked out, pushing the stroller.
-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-
As soon as Olivia walked back in to dark, quiet house she went in to the babies' room.
Olivia took Brayden out of the baby carrier. "Night, little man." She whispered as she placed him in his crib before taking the carrier off.
She then placed Aarilyn and Anna in to their cribs before kissing them both goodnight and went to bed herself.
-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-
Elliot tip-toed in to the house at 3:36am and went in to the master bedroom to see Olivia sound asleep, curled up on her left side with her hands sandwiched between her head and the pillow.
"Baby?" He whispered as he sat down on the bed in front of her.
Olivia sighed in her sleep and rolled over, away from him so Elliot decided to check on the triplets.
He walked over to each of their cribs and gave them each a light kiss before going back to bed.
Elliot and Olivia were woken about an hour later to the triplets crying.
"I'll help you, Liv." Elliot whispered as they both sat up.
"No. I don't need your help." She replied, coldly as she walked out of the master bedroom.
"Liv..." He tried to call to her but she didn't come back so he got up and walked in to the nursery to see her trying her hardest to settle all three babies down.
"Livvie, I'll take Aarilyn while I make up their bottles." Elliot said as he picked up Anna and passed her to Olivia since she was already holding Brayden.
"Thanks." She whispered as Elliot picked up Aarilyn.
Elliot pressed his forehead against Olivia's and looked in to her chocolate brown eyes. "Baby, what is wrong?" He asked in concern.
"We have to get the babies fed." She replied simply before walking out the nursery with a baby in each arm.
"Olivia, stop for just one second." He said as he gently held her back.
"Elliot, we have to feed them otherwise they are going to keep screaming."
Elliot could see the hurt and anger in her eyes so he just nodded and followed her in to the kitchen.
-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-
As soon as Olivia left the hospital with the triplets, Casey went to sleep because she was exhausted and she was getting discharged in the morning.
Morning came and Munch walked in at nine am sharp to take Casey home.
"Morning Case." He greeted the ADA as he sat in the chair beside the hospital bed.
"Morning John." She replied with a smile.
"Did Elliot and Olivia come to visit you last night?"
"Liv came alone with the triplets. She said that she didn't know where Elliot was and he kept rejecting her calls." Casey replied before noticing that John was hiding something. "John, where the hell was Elliot?"
"I don't know."
"John, Liv was looking after the triplets alone last night. Do you know how difficult that would be? Three against one, John. Liv only has two hands."
"Case, calm down. Remember no more stress for the rest of the pregnancy."
Casey took a deep breath. "Where the hell was Elliot last night?"
