Summary: See chapter 1

A/N: Thanks sooo much to all those who reviewed! And thanks to LivElRocks for making me a fav story!

This is sadly the second to last chapter. I know that it seemed kinda hurried, but my school starts next week, and I still have summer HW to get done. I prob won't be posting for a while once school starts. I'm going into my senior year, so I won't be as loaded down as I was last year, so maybe I'll be writing another story if I have time. I have another idea floating around my head, so maybe you'll see another story around Novemeber, when I'll be on vaca. Until then, there is one more chapter, So I hope you liked this so far!

Case Closed

Elliot was getting nervous when he hadn't heard from Olivia all day. He decided to go over to the house and make sure everything was okay.

He pulled up to the house. Everything seemed quiet. He walked up to the front door, but when he tried to open it, it was locked. He knocked, but there was no answer.

He walked around back, and found that the back door was also locked.

He walked back around the house, and looked in all the windows, but the house looked empty. Back at his car, he called Steve's cell, Olivia's cell, and then the house, but there was no answer on any of them.

He was about to get back in his car when he his phone began ringing. It startled him a little.

"Stabler." He said into his phone.

"Detective Stabler, we got something on one of the monitors that you installed in the house. We can't get a clear picture, but you may want to check it out." A voice said over the phone.

"I'm already here, I'll check it out." Elliot answered as he slammed the phone shut, there was fear and concern in his voice.

Elliot turned abruptly to the house when acrashing sound came from the upstairs balcony door. He looked up, and saw a chair smashing through the glass. Then he saw Olivia's leg, and heard her cry out before disappearing again.

"OLIVIA!" He called. Elliot took out his radio as he ran to the front door. "This is Detective Elliot Staler,badge number 22307; Manhattan SVU.I'm gonna need back up to 12 Ash Land Drive, there is an assault of an officer in progressive, send a bus." He said into the device.

He tried the front door again, and when it wouldn't budge, he punched in the glass with his elbow. He reached in, and unlocked the door. He let himself in, and rushed up to the second floor, his gun drawn.

Elliotspotted Matt at the top of the stairs, pacing.

"Police! Don't move Morlings!" He shouted into the hallway. Matt froze. He was screwed, and he knew it.

"Don't come any closer detective!" Matt yelled back, Olivia's gun drawn.

"It's not you I want Matt. I just want to get to my wife." Elliot said, standing behind a corner.

"I can't let you Detective. I need to kill her to get outa here. It's noting personal, I like Donna, there's just no other way." Matt answered.

"I'll shoot you without thinking twice!" Elliot called back.

"You do what you have to." Matt answered, unbudging.

Elliot took a quick shot, and his bullet came in contact with Matt's knee. The man fell to the floor in pain, and dropped Olivia's gun. He let out a cry.Elliot kickedthe gunaway cautiously. He quickly cuffed Matt to the stair railing.

"Like I said, I just want to get to my wife." Elliot said to the injured man, almost in a whisper.

He tried the bedroom door, but it toowas locked, like all the rest. He didn't think twice before ramming in the door with his shoulder.

The door came crashing down, and Elliot drew his gun. He found Steve on top of Olivia, and Olivia struggling to get free.

"Get off of her!" Elliot demanded. "You only get one chance."

"You think you scare me Detective?" Steve asked, pointing the gun to Olivia's head. "I'll kill her before your brain can even send a signal to your finger to squeeze the trigger." He smiled.

"I warned you Cunnings, get... off... of my partner." Elliot seethed.

Cunnings turned back to Olivia, and kissed her again. She struggled to turn her face, but he captured her lips just the same.

"I more chance." Elliot warned, positioning his gun to take the shot.

"What will IAB think about this Detective. You shoot me, they'll investigate, and find out that you two have been married. They'll seperate you for sure. And just think of all the shit you'll be in if you kille me." Steve said over his shoulder. Happy with his arguement.

"He killed a man who was attacking his partner." Olivia countered. Even though Steve had overtaken her physically, she wasn't going to let him defeat her mentally. Now that Elliot was here, she seemed to find a whole new strgenth. "Besides, I go home to Elliot every night. You think it's really gonna matter if we don't work together?" Olivia asked. "I'm still going to love him." She hit a nerve with this, and knew it. The man on top of her didn't want to rape her because he was violent, it was because he was convinced that Olivia wanted him.

Steve's face sank. He stared at Olivia's limp form laying under him.

"You love him, you'll always love him." Steve said, voicing his realization.

"Okay Detective. You win." Steve mumbled to Elliot, getting off of Olivia, and putting his hands up. "You get the girl, you win." Steve said.

"Don't move Cunnings." Elliot warned as the man backed away to the balcony.

"But you won't get me." Steve said with a strange smile on his face.

Before Elliot could react, the unstable manthrew himself from the balcony. Elliot rushed over to it, when he looked down; the EMS crew was rushing over to him. Backup had arrived.

"He's dead." The medic yelled up after checking for a pulse, but finding none. "Is anyone hurt up there?"

"Yeah, we got a GSW to the leg, and I want you to check out Detective Benson." Elliot yelled back.

He than ran over to Olivia. "You okay?" He asked.

"Yeah, I'm fine." Olivia said, pushing herself up from the bed. "The door was locked form the outside you know." She said with s mile. "You could have just unlocked it; you didn't have to bust it down."

Elliot let out a laugh. He hadn't even realized that there was a lock. He just knew he had to get to his wife.

"Oh God." Olivia said suddenly. "El, you're bleeding."

Elliot followed Olivia's worried gaze to his elbow. It had been cut when he smashed in the glass on the front door.

"I'm fine." Elliot said, brushing it off. "You bleeding from anywhere?" He asked.

He looked Olivia over. She had some blood coming from her lip, but it looked like the rest of her wounds consisted of only bruises.

"Anyone else hurt up here?" A young EMT asked, entering the room.

"Just a few scratches." Elliot answered.

"Better come with me anyway." The EMT said. He led Elliot and Olivia out to the bus, and they were checked over. Both were allowed to leave without having to visit the hospital.

TBC... the next chapter will be the last. It's mainly fluff! But we all seem to enjoy fluff!
