Chapter 20
"Morning gorgeous" said Elliot as he wrapped his arms around Olivia's waist and grabbed the bit of toast out of her hand and took a bite. "Where you off to so early, I missed you when I woke up"
Olivia turned round and wrapped her arms around him her hands resting on his naked ass cheeks.
"I got a text from Maureen asking me to meet her this morning, she wants to ask me something" she looked down at his naked body "Seriously Stabler you couldn't of at least put some shorts on" she laughed as his erection pushed against her.
"Well I didn't think you would be up and dressed so early" he sulked "I thought we had a day just to us, in bed, naked and sweaty" he smirked.
"Well I'm sorry I have a date with your daughter first, but then your all mine…..however until then why don't I leave you with a little something" she said as she dropped to her knees in front of him. She kissed the tip of his erection before taking him in her mouth twirling her tongue around his shaft.
"Will that do baby?" she asked "Just till I get home" she smiled wiping her mouth.
"I guess so" he smiled back "God you look so hot when you're giving me head" he laughed. She slapped him on the ass cheek and picked up her coffee taking a mouthful.
"I'm going to brush my teeth again" she laughed walking away. Elliot made himself a coffee as she came back in grabbing her bag.
"What you going to do this morning?" she asked him grabbing her car keys.
"Go back to be and dream about what I am going to do to you once you get home"
"I can't wait" she said kissing him quickly and walking away.
She jumped in her car and pulled out the parking lot smiling to herself. In the last few weeks everything she had dreamt about had come true. She had a guy who loved her for who she was, he knew everything about her, her past and he still loved her. She reached across and put the radio on. She was changing the station when she noticed the lights changing ahead of her. She pressed the brake pedal and her foot went straight to the floor, nothing happening. She pressed again quickly over and over as she got closer and closer to the junction and the red light nothing was happening. Starting to panic she grabbed the parking brake and pulled it in an attempt to slow down but nothing, she shot straight through the red light and everything went black.
Elliot woke up to the banging on the door he climbed out of bed pulling on a pair of shorts, the banging continued.
"Yeah Yeah, I'm coming he yelled" grabbing the door handle and flinging open the door.
"Cap what you doin here?" he asked seeing his boss stood there. He then noticed the grim look on his face. "What's happened?" he asked walking backwards into the apartment, he felt his body starting to shake. "It's Liv isn't it?"
Cragen nodded "She has been in an accident El" Elliot couldn't focus he knew it must be bad that's why he was here "She ran a red light". Elliot shook his head.
"No" he said "Please tell me she is ok" he said his voice breaking tears falling he leant back against the back of the couch "Please tell me she isn't dead" he sobbed.
"She has been rushed to Mercy general, Fin and Munch are with her now, she is been taken into surgery"
Elliot looked at the older man but couldn't take in what he was saying he wiped the tears away "She is alive"
Cragen nodded "she is but she is in a bad way, go get dressed"
Elliot ran into the bedroom and quickly got dressed in less than a min and ran back out "let's go" he said running out the door and slamming the door. They drove to the hospital in record speed lights and sirens the car didn't full stop and Elliot was out. He ran into the ER and up to the desk.
"I'm here with Olivia Benson" he panted. The nurse looked at her sheet.
"She's in the OR" before she had time to finish Elliot was running down the corridor he saw Munch and Fin leaning against the wall.
"What's happening" he gasped as Cragen came up behind him.
"We don't know man, they haven't said a word only that they will let us know, she has been in there an hour" Elliot collapsed into the chair beside him and dropped his head into his hands.
"Please god don't take her from me…..not now…please". Munch sat down next to him and put his arm around Elliot's shoulder.
"She is a fighter Elliot; she is too stubborn to let a little car accident get the better of her"
Elliot looked at the older man and tried to smile "I just can't lose her" he told him.
"I know you can't …none of us can"
"She means a lot to all of us El"
"Yeah I know" he said glad they were here with him. "What happened, how did she run a red light?" he asked.
"We don't know" said Cragen "Eye witnesses say she didn't even slow down she shot straight through the light and was hit in the side by an SUV, there were no skid marks on the road" Elliot shook his head.
"I don't get it why wouldn't she have stopped at a red?"
"We were hoping you might know something" said Fin.
"Like what!" asked Elliot snapping?
"Well was she tired, had you been out last night, has she been ill" Elliot shook his head.
"No none of them, we had an early night, no drink, she wasn't ill. She was up before me this morning she was fine she was going to meet Maureen she text and asked her to meet for a chat" Elliot looked at them "Shit …..Maureen she will be waiting for her"
"Give me your phone I will call her and explain you stay here" said Munch. Elliot handed over his phone. As munch walked away a doctor approached them.
"Family of Olivia Benson?"
"Yeah that's us" said Elliot jumping up. "How is she?"
The Doctor motioned for Elliot to sit down "No I'm fine just tell me" he said as Cragen came and stood beside him.
"Well she has 2 cracked ribs and one of them punctured her left lung, which we managed to repair. She has a concussion, a broken wrist which we had to set and cuts and bruises but apart from that she should be fine" he smiled "she is one tough cookie"
"She … she is okay" the doctor nodded.
"She will be, she needs rest and a bit of TLC but she will make a full recovery"
Elliot finally let out a long breath and smiled "Can I see her"
"Sure" the Doctor said "She will be a little drowsy though" Elliot nodded and followed him down the corridor to her room. He pushed the door open and walked in and stopped when he seen her bruised and cut face. Her left eye was all swollen and her wrist was in a cast.
"You just gonna stand there gawping" she asked him wincing with the pain "get your cute ass over here and tell me how gorgeous I am" she said trying to smile. Elliot walked over and took hold of her good hand and kissed her forehead.
"Jesus baby I was so worried" he said his voice breaking.
"Hey no tears" she said "I aint dead"
Elliot nodded holding back the tears "ok…..Liv what the hell happened?" he asked her "Witnesses say you didn't even stop at the light"
"I couldn't El" she said her eyes starting to close.
"What do you mean you couldn't?"
"I press….pressed the brake…..noth….nothing hap….." her eyes closed and she fell asleep. Elliot leaned over and kissed her forehead before removing his hand and walking out the room. Munch was back talking to fin and Cragen. They all looked at him when he came out.
"Liv says she pressed the brake and nothing happened" Elliot told them.
They all looked at him "Yeah well I spoke to Maureen" said Munch "She is with Kat, she never text Liv, she stayed with Kat last night in her Dorm room. She says she got a new phone last week, she isn't sure if she gave Liv her new number"
"So who the hell text Liv this morning?"
"We don't know, but they have Olivia's car and they are checking it over to see if anything is wrong" said Cragen. "We are going back to the station now I will let you know what shows up"
"Thanks Cap. Liv is fine she is just sleeping, I'm gonna stay here with her"
"Kat and Maureen are on their way down" said Munch as the three men left.
"Dad "said Maureen sticking her head round the door "can we come in"
"Yeah of course you can" he said quietly ""She is just sleeping"
They both came in and stood next to the bed looking at Olivia.
"I swear Daddy I never text her his morning"
"It's okay Sweetheart, I believe you, we just need to figure out who did"
Olivia stirred and Elliot went to her side "hey Baby you ok?" he asked stroking her hair.
"Yeah just a bit sore… now I know how the lockers in the cribs feel after you beat them" she said laughing then holding her ribs "Ow that fucking hurts" she grimaced.
Elliot smiled and the two girls laughed "And my dad kisses that mouth" laughed Kat. Olivia looked at them and tried her best not to laugh.
"Sorry I missed our chat" she said to Maureen.
"I didn't text you Liv" she told her.
"But the text is on my phone" said Olivia in my bag. Elliot reached down and got her bag from under the bed and took the phone out retrieving the text. He showed Maureen, who took the phone off him and looked at it pressing the screen.
"That's my old number" she said. "I don't get it"
"Who did you give your old phone to?" asked Elliot.
"No one….. I left it at home… I didn't need it" she said.
Elliot's phone rang and Cragen's name came up on the caller ID "Cap" he answered.
"El CSU checked out the car the brake line and the parking brake cable had been cut, someone was out to get Olivia and used a meeting with Maureen to do it" Elliot pulled the phone away from his ear.
"What is it dad?" asked Kat.
"Someone cut the brake line on your Car Liv, someone who access to Maureen's phone and wanted rid of you" he looked at Olivia and dropped his phone.
"I'm gonna kill the Bitch…..Stay with Liv" said Elliot running out the room.
"ELLIOT!" shouted Olivia "SHIT!" she said grabbing her ribs. "Get Cragen back on the phone, quick tell him to get over to your Moms house" said Olivia to Maureen.
Elliot screeched the car to a halt outside the house and climbed out leaving the engine running and door open. He flung the front door open.
"KATHY!" he shouted running through the downstairs of the house. "WHERE THE HELL ARE YOU!" he yelled, running up the stairs. He went past Eli's room and seen him asleep in his crib. He flung the bedroom door open to the room that him Kathy once shared. Kathy was lay on the bed in just Bra and Panties.
"Hey Baby" she said "I knew you would come back to me"
Elliot glared at her "What the hell did you do?"
"What do you mean…I'm just waiting for you I knew you would finally realise what you wanted" she patted the bed beside her "Come on….. I will forgive you"
"Your crazy…..NOW GET OFF THE BED AND GET DRESSED!" he screamed at her. Kathy looked at him smiling.
"What's the matter Honey" she said climbing off the bed and walking towards him. "We had a slight disagreement but I forgive you, we will get past this just like we always do"
"You're crazy" he said looking at the woman he had spent most his life with. The woman who had gave him five great kids, but she was like a stranger. "You tried to kill Olivia….why would you even try that, she never done anything to you"
Kathy smiled at him "yes she did….she turned you and my kids against me" she ran a finger down Elliot's chest over his t-shirt. Elliot heard cars pulling up outside. "I had to get rid of the bitch" she said smirking. Elliot looked at her.
"What?" he asked her, looking at the door and seeing Cragen and Fin.
"She was trying to take my place so I had to get rid of her, I knew once she was gone you would come back to me, you have always been mine Elliot ever since I made sure I got pregnant at school with Maureen to stop you leaving me, you have been mine. I knew getting pregnant this time was out the question so I just got rid of the problem instead"
Elliot shook his head as he listened to her talking. "I love you Elliot and if I can't have you nobody will" she tried to put her arms around Elliot and he pushed her away.
"Stay the away from me and my kids" he snarled at her as she fell against the wall.
"The bitch is dead baby…. It's just us now forget her" Elliot walked up to her, grabbed her arms and threw her against the wall.
"She isn't dead" he told her "she is in the hospital right now recovering. Maureen and Kat are by her bedside, I wouldn't be surprised if Dickie and Lizzy are on their way" Kathy shook her head frantically.
"NO! She can't be…. I took care of it"
"Well it looks like you failed at that just like you failed at being mother" he said to her as Cragen and Fin walked in the room and Elliot backed away from her.
"Kathleen Stabler" said Cragen " You are under arrest for the attempted murder of Detective Olivia Benson" Fin grabbed Kathy's arms around her back and put the cuffs on and led her out the room screaming as Cragen read her rights.
Elliot stood in the empty room and Munch came in "You Okay?" he asked Elliot.
"No" said Elliot "How could she do that, it's like I never knew her" he said to Munch.
"You're asking the wrong man" said Munch "Four wives four divorces, women totally confuse me" he said patting Elliot's shoulder. Elliot heard a cry from the other room and turned away from Munch. He walked up to the crib and lifted Eli out and held him tight.
"Hey where's daddies big boy" he said smiling at his son and wrapping a blanket around him "Come on lets go" he said walking out the room.
Elliot walked into the hospital room with Eli and Olivia, and his four other kids all looked at him.
"What happened?" asked Kat. Elliot looked at them.
"Sit down" he told them "it's not good". Elliot told them exactly what happened, they got angry, then cried then got angry again. Olivia sat in her bed unable to say or do anything to help.
"Look why don't you take Eli back to Olivia's, I will stay here a bit longer"
"Okay Daddy" said Lizzy standing up and taking Eli into her arms Elliot bent over and kissed her head. Lizzy went to Olivia and hugged her "Love you Livvy" she said.
"Love you to Honey" said Olivia trying her best not to cry. The rest of the kids all left the room after kissing and hugging both Olivia and Elliot. Elliot told them he would be home soon. Once they all left he turned to Olivia and sat on the bed taking hold of her hand.
"I'm so sorry Liv" he said not looking at her.
"What for?" she asked him "Falling in love with, making me the happiest woman in the world, the great…. No amazing sex, for having five great kids who seem to love me as much as I love them" he finally looked at her and smiled.
"I nearly lost you today"
"Nearly El …I'm still here. So no more sorry's okay"
"Okay. I love you so much" he said.
"You better do after the shit we have gone through to get here" she laughed. He laughed with her and bent forward kissing her gently.
"So the sex is amazing huh"
"oh yeah" she grinned" and when I get out of here and not in total agony I will show you exactly how amazing the sex is"
"Oh really" he said raising his eyebrows
"You can count on it…..now get home to the kids, they need you more than me tonight" she ordered him.
I like writing Kathy as the bad guy sometimes, its chapter maybe chapters coming up soon.
