CHAPTER TWENTY FIVE

"El," Olivia tried to protest as she felt his hands snake under her shirt. "El, we can't."

"Liv, we're fine." Elliot said as he closed the space in between their lips, taking her into a passionate kiss.

"El-" She tried to protest again, but was persuaded by his tongue sliding across her bottom lip begging to be let into her mouth.

The two somehow made it from the couch into Elliot's bedroom. "Elliot," Olivia all but groaned, praying none of the kids heard her, as she felt him slip his hands under her shirt again.

Olivia woke up to an annoying alarm, in another bed besides her own, which worried her for a second before she realized whose bed it was. She felt the all but familiar arm on her lower body again, and then the comfort relieve her. She felt the warmth of the arm being removed from her and the a thud of the alarm being turned off.

"El," She said softly as she rolled over before being pulled into another kiss similar to the ones that had been placed on her mouth last night. "Mmhmm." She said as she licked her lips when the two separated. "I could get used to that."

He smiled as he opened his eyes once more. "Good morning."

"Yea...this shouldn't be considered morning, but okay." She said as she stared at him.

He looked over her shoulder to see the clock read four fifteen. "Yea, agreed." He paused for a second, "Do we have to hit the road so early?" He pleaded.

She smiled at him and placed both her hands on each side of his face, "Unfortunately yes, we do." She said before quickly kissing him again. "I'll shower first." She stated as she got out of the warm bed.

"We could always save water..." He said, winking, as she looked back at him.

"Why, Mr. Stabler," Olivia acted astonished. "You wouldn't be suggesting that we commit a mortal sin now would you?" She said, desperately trying to hold her expression, making Elliot laugh again. "Because that just wouldn't be right." She said before finally breaking into a laugh as well.

Olivia walked into the kitchen in a pair of jeans and a sweatshirt for a cup of coffee. She leaned against the counter, starting to think about how comfortable this all felt to her.

"Morning Liv," Lizzie said as she yawned while walking into the kitchen, pulling Olivia out of her thoughts.

"Hi hun, how are you this morning?" Olivia said as she watched Elliot's daughter pull out everything needed for cereal.

"Tired, thanks." She said. "Why do we have to leave this early again?" She asked while sitting down at the table.

"Long drive, Liz." Dickie responded as he walked into the kitchen and pulled a bowl out of the cabinet for himself before sitting down next to his sister. "Where's dad?" He asked as he shoveled a spoonful of cereal into his mouth.

"Dickie, don't speak with your mouth open." Elliot commanded as he walked into the kitchen for coffee, leaning next to Olivia as he drank it.

Lizzie and Dickie shared a quick glance, each knowing what the other was thinking about Elliot and Olivia.

"Want to go throw the bags in the car and I will get the munchkins?" Olivia suggested as she finished her coffee and placed the mug in the sink.

"That's fine," He answered. "Dickie, go get yours, your sister's, and your brother's bags and come help me." Elliot told his son knowing that Olivia and Lucy's bag was already in the car, who had just finished his breakfast.

"Lizzie, where's your bag?" Dickie asked his sister as he got up from the table.

"In my room-" She started to answer before cutting herself off. "Wait! I still have to throw a couple things in it!" She said as she raced down the hall before her brother.

Elliot and Olivia looked at each other, "Are we sure we should make this into a mini vacation?" Olivia asked him.

Elliot laughed, "We have to have somebody to watch Lucy, and then we need somebody to watch Eli, and I can't leave Dickie here alone with Eli, and Lucy and Lizzie are inseparable most of the time…so yes...we do." He said as he closed the gap in between them.

The moment was quickly ruined by the bickering between Dickie and Lizzie.

"Lizzie! We're only going for four days!" Dickie yelled at his sister.

"Oh shut up Dickie!" She yelled back.

Elliot quickly ran into the hall, "Both of you hush! Lucy and Eli are still asleep, and we'd like to keep it that way!" He said in a hushed yell.

The mumbled apologies could be heard from both children before Elliot and Dickie made their way to the door with the bags. "We're going to put this stuff in the car, meet you down there." Elliot stated as he and Dickie walked out the door.

Olivia walked down the hall to Eli's room, which was where Lucy slept last night so that Lizzie wouldn't wake her.

"Liv?" Lizzie said quietly as she passed her room.

"Yes?" Olivia replied.

"Do you need any help?" Lizzie asked as she shut the light off in her room and walked out into the hall.

"Sure, that would be great Lizzie." Olivia said as she and Lizzie walked into the dark bedroom to retrieve the sleeping toddlers.

"You carry your brother and I'll get Lucy, okay?" Olivia whispered.

"Okay." Lucy said before quietly walking over to her little brother's bed and slowly picking him up.

Olivia made her way to the small air mattress in the corner of the room and gently picked up Lucy before looking back at Lizzie and nodding. The two managed to get out to the car without waking either of the younger children.

When everything was loaded into the car and everybody was buckled in the long trip back to what Olivia had considered Hell for the longest time began.

Shortly into the trip all four kids were asleep in the back of Elliot's SUV and Olivia and Elliot were sitting quietly in the front.

"Liv?" Elliot voiced quietly.

"Yes El?" She responded.

"You never said," He started. "Who did you get to be your attorney for this?" Elliot had asked the question several times but she had always avoided the answer.

"One of the best lawyers we know." She smiled.

"And who would that be?" He asked, knowing that there were only two she would trust completely with this.

"Casey, she and Alex drew straws." Olivia laughed a little, knowing it was completely true. "She's meeting us at the hotel."
