Love y'all!

"Liv! It feels like it's been years since I've seen you" Munch greeted as he gave his coworker a big hug. She chuckled when he refused to let her go. "Fin and Elliot have been driving each other crazy. Cragen has been forcing them to work together while you've been gone".

Olivia sighed. She knew all too well about Fin and Elliot working together, and she hated that the two men were such good friends yet awful partners. Who knew what would happen to the partnerships at the SVU after they disclosed? Maybe she would be partnered with Munch and Elliot and Fin would have to work together. Maybe she would be with Fin. Hopefully, their current partnerships would work out. Munch released her and she walked over to Fin for a hug.

"Where's Hudson?"

"I called his sitter in. I figured I'd come see you guys and give them a chance to bond a little more. How have you guys been? I heard El is being hard-headed as usual". She tried to remain engaged in the conversation, but it was so hard considering the events of a few moments ago.

"Yeah, but it's alright. We're figuring it out. Where is Stabler anyway? He was here and then he was gone".

Olivia knew exactly where he was. He was on the roof, waiting a few minutes before coming back down so the guys wouldn't think that they had been together. Not that it would really matter anymore…Oh well, nothing could take away the joy she felt.

*15 minutes ago*

Elliot looked at his phone, reading the text from Olivia.

Meet me on the roof xo

He smiled. No one would miss him if he were to step out for a few minutes, not that he really cared because Olivia was more important regardless. Munch and Fin were busy at their desks, so he knew that he'd be fine.

He found Olivia standing on the roof, looking out at the city below with her arms crossed over her chest. Her eyes may have been on the scene below her, but he could tell that her mind was thinking of something else entirely. She was lost in thought and had never looked more beautiful. Elliot wrapped his arms around her from behind, smiling when she immediately turned to kiss him.

"I have something to tell you" She started. "There's no doubt, you're gonna be a daddy again".

"You went to the doctor's?"

She nodded. "I called this morning as soon as the office opened and they told me they could get me in today. So I took it. I hope you're not upset".

He shook his head and coaxed her to turn so that they were face to face. "I understand why you went without me. I want to be there for the rest though". He kissed her on the forehead, savoring this beautiful moment.

"I cried. I broke down sobbing because I'm so damn happy" She sighed. "I love you".

"I love you, too".

"I have a picture. There's not much to see yet, but do you want to look at it?"

"Of course".

She bent over and picked up her purse, quickly retrieving the picture. She handed it to him with a warm smile. "That little blob is our baby".

He examined the picture thoroughly, taking in every available detail of his son or daughter.

"I'm seven weeks".

He nodded. That sounded right. There was one thing that caught his eye though. "Why does it look like there are two little blobs in here?"

She shrugged. "The tech didn't really say much to me since it's so early".

They stood in silence, simply looking at the picture of the life they created together for a few more moments.

" As much as I love this, I guess I'm going to head in and say hi to the guys. The sooner we get this done, the sooner we can go home and celebrate. I'll see you in a few?"

He kissed her on the top of her head and gave her a quick hug. "See you in a few".

0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

Elliot was walking into the squad room, watching as Olivia spoke with Fin. She had a way of lighting up a room and he knew that he wasn't the only one that saw it.

"There you are. I was just telling Benson that you haven't tried to kill me in two days".

Elliot rolled his eyes but allowed himself to laugh a bit. He gestured towards the office door and Olivia nodded. It was time. She could see how nervous Elliot was and it took everything in her not to laugh at him. Her big, strong man was scared to tell their captain that they were together and having a baby. It was a big step, but coming clean and telling their boss about it would make things so much easier in the long run.

"Breathe, El. It'll be fine".

She knocked on the door before cracking it open.

"Liv, nice to see you here. Come in".

Olivia took a seat across from the captain and waited for Elliot to join her. "It's nice to see you too, but I'm afraid I'm here to handle some business".

"We know that it's the middle of the day, but we figured that the sooner we discussed this the better" Elliot added.

Donald Cragen was no fool, he knew what this conversation would entail. He did find it quite funny that his two best detectives were trying their hardest to maintain a professional air as they concealed their nerves.

"So what do you need to talk to me about?" He asked, playing along.

"We um...We actually need to disclose".

Olivia allowed that to sink in for a moment, silently testing the waters. It was hard to read their captain, so she moved forward. "We've been together since he filed for divorce. Recently, very recently actually, we found out that we are expecting…". She hadn't planned on plowing through everything like that, but it was all out in the open now. Elliot's hand gripped her thigh. She could feel how sweaty his palms were through the fabric of her pants.

"So, you two were together for months behind my back and now you're having a baby?"

The two detectives nodded. "We would have told you sooner, but things weren't serious for a while" Elliot blurted out. Why the hell did he say that to the man that acted as Olivia's father? They had absolutely no intention of telling him their original arrangement and here Elliot was opening his big mouth.

Cragen simply shook his head. "As you both know, this complicates things around here. I can't answer the question you want to ask. I'll have to observe how you two handle working together before I can ensure that you can stay partners".

They both nodded again.

"There is one thing I can tell you right now though" He paused. "I'm happy for you two".

Elliot let out the breath that he had been holding and Olivia smiled. "Thank you" She said for the both of them.

"Elliot, you are a smart man so I trust that you'll treat Olivia and my grandchildren right. Olivia, I know that you can kill him and make it look like an accident if he doesn't".

Cragen stood and extended his hand, which Elliot accepted. He then walked around the desk to congratulate Olivia with a hug.

"When are you going to tell John and Fin?"

Olivia smirked. "Right now".

She grabbed Elliot's hand and lead him into the squad room, making sure they were standing in the middle of the room. Cragen watched from the doorway of his office as his two detectives made a show of their announcement. Elliot gave Olivia a little twirl before taking her fully into his arms and dipping her. He held her like that while they locked lips, earning the attention of everyone in the room. Some of the fellow officers clapped while others stared in shock. When the two pulled apart, they definitely felt uncomfortable, but in a good way.

"I'm pregnant" Olivia announced, making almost everyone smile for the happy couple. Munch and Fin came up to them, congratulating their coworkers and friends.

"I'm glad you two finally got your head out of your asses and went for it" Fin said. Turning to Munch, he extended his hand, "Pay up man, you owe me fifty dollars".

Olivia's jaw dropped. "You two bet on us?"

"Us two, half the precinct. Actually, it's probably more like half of the NYPD" Munch joked.

She bit her lip. How had the whole precinct seen what they had between them before they did? She shook the thought off. "Well, I was thinking that we should celebrate. How about lunch on me? I know you guys can't go out, but why don't you pick where you want takeout from and I'll get it?"

After they ordered, Olivia left to pick up lunch for the guys and the captain. Before she could leave, Elliot kissed her once again, while Munch pretended to gag. She lazily kissed Elliot one more time before heading to the elevator, mumbling a quick "love you" as she left.

They both knew that their behavior wasn't exactly appropriate for work, but technically, Olivia wasn't on the clock anyway. Of course they wouldn't touch and kiss each other while they were working, but they were just too happy at this moment. She let out a content sigh as she stepped off the elevator and out the door. Things couldn't be better.

Elliot was sitting at his desk, doing paperwork while patiently waiting for Olivia to return. He heard footsteps coming up behind him, so he turned to see who it was. A disheveled looking woman came up to him with her arms crossed over her chest.

"Are-are you detective Stabler?"

"Yes, I am. What can I help you with?"

"You can help me by staying away from my family! My husband is not a rapist! I know that you are setting him up. Do you get off on ruining families?"

He stood up and put his hands up, trying to figure out how to address the situation. Fin was coming up behind her to restrain her, but she moved faster than him. Her hand slipped into her jacket, pulling something out. The next thing they knew, a loud crack echoed through the precinct and Elliot crumbled to the ground. Fin tackled the woman and disarmed her while Munch ran to aid Elliot. He groaned in pain, his entire body feeling like it was on fire. He wasn't even sure where he had been shot until he felt Munch applying pressure to his thigh. It all happened so fast…

Olivia groaned at the sight of the ambulance outside of the precinct. What could have possibly happened within the twenty minutes it took to get their Chinese? The stretcher was being rolled out as she got to the main entrance.

"Oh my God, Elliot!" She yelped as soon as she recognized him. The food dropped to the ground as she bolted for him. A medic grabbed her by the arm, stopping her before she could reach Elliot.

"You can ride with us, but you need to stay out of the way".

She nodded and climbed into the back of the ambulance, forcing herself to keep her hands folded in her lap so that she wouldn't disturb them. Elliot's eyes were closed and he was pale as a sheet. Two men frantically moved about the vehicle, doing everything they could to stop the bleeding. Tears rolled down her cheeks, but she refused to acknowledge them. Elliot was strong. Elliot would be okay.
