Home coming

"Where are we going?" Olivia asked from the back seat of Elliot's car. "My apartment is in the other direction.

"I know." Elliot smiled. "Just trust me."

Elliot pulled into his building and held the car door open so that Olivia could take the baby carrier out.

He unlocked his apartment and let Olivia and Erika in. I've got something to show you." He said.

He led Olivia to Maureen's room, and opened the door, revealing his surprise.

"Oh Elliot." She gasped.

Elliot and his children had turned Maureen's room into a nursery for the new baby. It had pale yellow walls to match the yellow bedding that Olivia had picked out for the basinet and crib. The white basinet stood in the middle of the room. Against one wall was a crib made of a light wood. There was a bumble bee mobile hanging over it. Against the opposite wall were the changing table and dresser. Under the window Elliot had placed the rocking chair, that Cragen had bough t for Olivia. There were stuffed animals placed all over the room.

"But why?" Olivia asked.

"Well, Erika's gonna need a place to sleep." Elliot answered, placing Erika's carrier onto the floor, and hugging Olivia from behind.

"And Maureen?" Olivia asked still in awe.

"We moved her bed into Kathleen's room. She only comes over when she's home from school. So she didn't have that much stuff in her anyway." Elliot answered, kissing Olivia lightly on the back of the neck. "This was actually all her idea."

"I love it." Olivia smiled, turning her head to kiss the man she loved. "Almost as much as I love you."

Elliot smiled, and turned Olivia to face him so that he could wrap his arms around her now small waist. He kissed her passionately. "I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with you." He said.

"I can't either." Olivia answered. "I should get my stuff out of my apartment." She said, breaking away from Elliot's grasp.

"Already done. Maureen and Kathleen made room in my closet, and moved your cloths in." Elliot answered. "Your furniture is currently in storage, I figured that we could redecorate between now and the wedding."

Olivia smiled. Hereally hadthought of everything. "What if I had said no when you asked me to marry you?" She asked.

"Well then Benson, I would have been screwed." Elliot chuckled to the woman in his arms.

"I can't believe that you did all this. I mean, before yesterday, you though Erika was someone else's baby." Olivia said.

"I loved her like she was my own, DNA doesn't mean a ting." Elliot answered turning his head to look at the sleeping baby.

Olivia broke their embrace to place Erika in her basinet. The baby stirred a little, but then fell back to sleep. Olivia turned on the baby monitor, and then she and Elliot quietly exited the room.

"You know..." Elliot began in a seductive voice, taking Olivia by the hand. "There is one room of your new home you haven't seen yet."

"And just what would that be?" Olivia asked smiling.

"Our bedroom." Elliot answered with a smile.

"Oh really?" Olivia teased. "And why would I want to see that?"

"hmmm, I can't think of any particular reason." Elliot teased back, kissing her quickly. "My kids won't be here for another 3 hours, and Erika is sleeping." He said, pulling Olivia towards the bedroom door. "Why don't we try it out?"

Olivia kissed Elliot passionately on the lips to let him know that she was in, when suddenly they heard a key in the door. Elliot's kids came pouring in, and Erika began to fuss in the other room.

"Hey Dad. Hope you don't mind that we're early. Mom told us about Erika, and we wanted to see how our new sister likes her new room!" Maureen said.

"Oh no." Elliot said under his breath, trying to mask his disappoint. "Of course I don't ming that you guys decided to come early." He lied.

"Don't worry El; we have out whole lives to 'try out' our room." Olivia smiled in a whisper, patting Elliot's chest. She then scurried off to Erika's room.

Elliot smiled. He couldn't wait to begin his new life, complete with 5 amazing kids, and his wonderful new wife.

That night Olivia lay in Elliot's arms. It had been the first time they had made love since Erika's conception. This time it had meant so much more to Olivia though. It had also been the first time she had had sex since her attack. She was surprised that she didn't have any hesitations. She knew that it was because she knew that she could always trust Elliot.

As she lay in her fiancé's arms that night she contemplated her life. She had a baby girl, and in a few months would have 4 more kids, and a husband. She was so lucky. Usually Olivia's affairs of the heart ended badly, but this time, they had led her to finally have her fairytale ending.

THE END
