Elliot put Olivia down onto the cot gently. He brushed some of the hair away from her face. Her lips moved to speak, but no sound came out. Thinking that she was dreaming he whispered soft words of comfort in her ear and kissed her check softly. "Elliot." She spoke barely above a whisper. "I'm here. Get some sleep baby." She moaned softly in response and drifted back to sleep. There was a loud knock at the door. Irritated he went to answer it quickly before they could knock again. He was shocked to see Kathy standing there. "Am I interrupting?" Her tone clearly suspicious and accusing. She tried to push past him into the crib in the hope of catching them in the act. He took her by the arm and led her into the hallway closing the door behind them. He was not in the mood for fight. She lit into him immediately. "Where were you this morning?" "I got a call. I told you." It was then that he realized that he hadn't told her anything. He hadn't called her when he got to work like he usually did to let her know when he would be home. He thought though that she would understand that under the circumstances. "Kathy.." "You missed Lizy and Dickey's play today. You remember the one that you promised you wouldn't forget." "Shit. I'm sorry. I'll make it up to them. They'll understand when I explain to them what happened." "Really I can't wait to hear this one. Will you go with the classic? "I got called in." Or will you try the truth. " I got a call from my whore of a partner and I was just to busy fucking her to come to your play!" Elliot grabbed her by the upper arms and slammed her against the wall. He never thought that he could be capable of hitting his wife. He was raised not to hurt women, but she was putting him to the test. Kathy looked genially frightened. "If you ever say anything like that about Olivia again I swear to God!" "Elliot you're hurting me." Kathy whimpered. " So now were even." He let go of her. "We're no where near even. Since you obviously like sleeping with her don't bother coming home." She was about to continue when the door behind them opened and Olivia stepped into the hall. "Elliot, is everything all right?" She saw the look on Kathy's face and realized that they weren't. "Sorry. I didn't.." "It's OK. Kathy was just leaving." Elliot said as he gently ushered her back into the room. He turned back to Kathy and saw the shock on her face at seeing Olivia's condition. " I'll be by later on to see my kids and pick up a few things." And he closed the door before she could say another word. Kathy blinked back tears. What had she done?
When Kathy walked down the stairs back into the bullpen she was met with some very nasty looks from Elliot and Olivia's CO-workers. They must have heard the argument. She spotted Cragen. He gave her a small smile and invited her into his office. Closing the door behind them. He took a seat at the end of his desk and offered her a chair. She hung her head slightly in embarrassment. "Don't worry about it." She scoffed "I just accused my husband of having an affair with his partner in full ear shot of all of his friends and CO-workers. I've embarrassed my husband." "That little argument is nothing compared to the knock down drag out fights Elliot and Olivia have had, mostly over stupid things. Like the donut incident. They called each other names for four days all over a chocolate donut. Your fight won't even be remembered by these guys tomorrow." She nodded. "Everyone is just a little sensitive about Olivia today." Kathy suddenly remembered her battered face. "What happened to her?" Cragen took a deep breath. "Olivia was raped late last night. What you saw today, was nothing more than Elliot taking care of her? She was pretty banged up and very exhausted. She past out here in the office and Elliot carried her upstairs to sleep. Just for the record Elliot is so faithful to you it's scary. And Olivia adores you and the kids. She would never do anything to hurt your marriage." Kathy burst into tears. "I know. I don't know why I'd say something like that." She remembered everything she had said and gasped. "Oh, god. I called her a whore. No wonder Elliot looked like he could kill me. I have to apologize." She stood up as the door flung open. Munch was standing there. "Captain you need to see this." Cragen moved past Kathy and walked out into the bullpen. Fin was grilling a delivery boy. And there sitting on Olivia's desk was 3 dozen red roses in a vase.
Elliot and Olivia walked down the stairs into the bullpen. At first they didn't notice the flowers. "Hey, Captain. Olivia thinks she remembered something." They both stopped short when they saw the flowers. "You've got to be kidding me." Elliot remarked. Olivia put on a glove and searched for a card. She pulled her hand back quickly. "Ouch! I thought they took the thorns off roses nowadays." A few drops of blood were now on the glove. Munch reached in to the arrangement with elongated tweezers and pulled out a card. He opened it carefully are read it aloud. "Your blood is red, Your lips lifeless and blue Give me one last kiss goodbye, As I whisper I love you. Signed Richard." "Why do only psycho's send me roses, just once I would.." She suddenly could catch her breath. She began to tremble and everything looked disjointed. "Elliot, there's something wrong." She managed to say as she fell to her knees. Elliot was at her side in a flash. She was barley breathing now as she locked eyes with Elliot. "Don't touch.. Ros.. pois.." she took one last breath and crumpled into his open arms.
