"Come in," Olivia said quickly.
The officer shook his head," Ma'am if you don't mind i'm going to stand out here. I'll stay here in front of the door," he said.
Olivia nodded," Ok, let us know if you see anything," she said, shutting the door. She motioned for Elliot to come over and he complied quickly.
"What's going on?" he asked.
"The officer saw Kathy out front," Olivia said quietly.
Elliot's face fell," Did he get her?" he asked hopefully.
Olivia shook her head slowly," No, El. He lost her," she said.
Elliot sighed,"What a fantastic cop," he said sarcastically.
"El, this isn't his fault. Kathy has obviously proved that she is a sneaky bitch," Olivia said.
Elliot nodded," I know. I just, need someone to blame this on I guess," he said quietly.
Olivia nodded and laid her head on Elliot's chest as he wrapped his arms around her," I know, El. Trust me," she said. There was a commotion outside the door. Olivia's eyes widened and she looked out the peephole. She saw Kathy. She had taken the young officer's tazer and was using it on him. Olivia turned away, panick filling her eyes.
"What? What's wrong?" Elliot asked.
"Kathy, she's out there, she's tazing Officer Green," Olivia whispered.
Elliot's eyes widened," She's out there?" he asked, going for the door knob.
Olivia grabbed his arm," El, we have to be smart about this. She is obviously out of control and neither one of us want to get hurt, or to get the kids hurt," Olivia said.
Elliot nodded," Ok," he said softly.
"I'm gonna' get the kids into the bedroom,you stay here and watch her, make sure she doesn't go anywhere, but do not go out there," Olivia said, walking into the living room. "Hey, guys. I need you guys to go into the bedroom right now," Olivia said, smiling.
"What's going on?" Kathleen asked.
"Nothing, sweetie. I just need you to do it, now, i'll explain later," Olivia said, scooping Jake and Eli up and walking into the bedroom. She laid them both down in the center of the bed and helped Gabbi and Bree up onto the bed. Kathleen, Maureen, Lizzie, and Dickie came into the room and sat down on the bed. "Ok, guys, I'll be back to get you guys in a little bit. Don't come out until I come back, ok?" she asked.
Maureen nodded," Ok, Liv, i'll make sure we all stay in here," she said.
Olivia smiled," Thanks sweetie," she said, walking out the door and closing it behind her. "Sweetie, can you lock the door please?" she called through the door.
She could hear someone get up and the lock on the door click," It's locked, Liv," Maureen said.
"Thanks hon," Olivia said, waiting until she heard her sit back down on the bed to turn and walk into the kitchen. Elliot was looking through the peephole. "What's going on?" she asked quietly, walking up beside him.
"He passed out, she's just pacing now. She put the tazer down, but she has a gun," Elliot said. Olivia nodded and grabbed their guns off the top of the fridge, where they had been keeping them since the kids had been around. She handed Elliot his gun and they both trained them at the door while Olivia slowly unlocked it and took the chain out. She glanced at Elliot, who nodded at her, before opening the door. Both of their guns were aimed right at Kathy's head and Kathy froze. "Kathy, you need to put the gun down," Olivia said calmly.
Kathy shook her head," No, bitch, you need to put your gun down," she said, aiming the gun at Olivia.
"Kathy, put the gun down. This has gone far enough," Elliot said.
Kathy turned her gun to Elliot," I want to see the kids," she said.
Elliot shook his head," That's not going to happen Kathy," he said.
"Unless you put the gun down," Olivia butted in, shooting a quick glance at Elliot, that went unnoticed by Kathy.
Kathy turned towards Olivia, keeping her gun on Elliot," What?" she asked.
"Kathy, we can't let you see the kids while you're holding that gun. It will scare them," Olivia reasoned.
"You wouldn't let me see them," Kathy said, shaking her head.
Olivia nodded," Yes, I would. I understand that i'm not their mother and I never will be. They've been through a lot of stress and i'm sure they would really, really like to see you," she said.
Kathy nodded," You will never be their mother, because i'm their mother. They see right through that game that you play with them. Trying to use them to get close to Elliot. You know, it won't work. He still loves me. He will never, ever love you like he loves me," she said, lowering her gun a little.
Olivia sighed," Yeah, you're right. I don't care about those kids, I was just trying to get close to Elliot. I realize now that he will never love me like he loves you. And he does still love you. He told me that he wanted to get back together with you," she said, sadly.
Kathy smiled and looked at Elliot," Is that true?" she asked. Elliot just nodded and smiled back at her. Kathy turned back to Olivia," Guess you lose, stupid bitch," she said angrily.
Olivia nodded," Yeah, I do. Now, can you please put down your gun so you can go see your kids?" she asked calmly. Kathy waited a minute before she put down her gun, but she did. She put it down on the floor and the minute she did Olivia rushed over to her, getting her down on the ground. Elliot walked into the kitchen quickly and got her hand cuffs. Olivia took them from him and cuffed her while Elliot checked the pulse on the officer. Elliot got his phone and quickly made a call for a squad car and an ambulance. Olivia pulled Kathy up to her feet. "Who's the stupid bitch now?" she asked, sitting Kathy down in a chair.
Kathy shook her head angrily," You lied to me!" she said.
Olivia nodded," Yeah, I did. Those kids hate you and i'm pretty sure Elliot does too. I told you to stay away," she stated.
"I don't have to listen to anything you say," Kathy spat.
Olivia smiled," Well, you didn't and look where that's gotten you," she said.
Elliot walked in and slipped an arm around Olivia's waist, kissing her cheek softly," And for the record, Kathy. I love Olivia way more than I ever loved you," he said.
"You're just lying to yourself Elliot. She's tricked you. Just like she tricked me. And like she tricked the kids. You'll figure that out one day and you'll come crawling back to me," Kathy said.
Elliot shook his head," I would rather die then come crawling back to you," he said as a police officer poked his head in the door.
"You have a prisoner for me to take Detective Stabler?" he asked.
Elliot moved himself and Olivia out of the way, letting the officer take Kathy out. Olivia slipped out of Elliot's grasp and walked into the hallway where they were loading Officer Green up on a stretcher," Is he going to be ok?" she asked.
"Yeah, I think he'll be ok," the paramedic replied.
Olivia smiled," Thank you," she said before walking back into the apartment and shutting the door, locking it. She sighed and leaned her back against the door.
"That was good work back there," Elliot said, walking up to her and wrapping his arms around her waist, pulling her close.
She smiled," I try," she said playfully. Elliot chuckled and leaned down, planting a slow kiss on Olivia's lips. "I have to go get the kids," Olivia said, pulling away. Elliot sighed and let her go. She walked to the bedroom door and knocked lightly,"Guys, you can come out now," Olivia said.
"Liv, is that you?" Maureen asked.
"Yeah, sweetie. It's me. It's ok to come out now," she said.
