Odafin "Fin" Tutuola walked into the one-six. His partner, John Munch was already looking at some paperwork. Munch was clearing his desk of old paper work. When Fin walked in.

Munch: "Hello partner" Munch said

Fin was hanging his coat "Yo"

Stabler came out of the Captain's office... with a grim look on his face

Fin saw Stabler walk out of the Captain's office.

"What's up" Fin questioned Elliot

"Nothing" replied Elliot harshly

"ok Stabler"

Just then Fin heard his 2 yrs old son calling for him. Fin stepped into the hall and saw his wife of four years caring his baby boy. Olivia had left the force when she was pregnant with their first child. She, felt it was best for her and their family.

Olivia was struggling with the boy "Justin, Honey settle down for mommy"

Fin walked over to Olivia kissing her on the "Hey Babe"

Smiling Olivia replied "Hey, Hon."

Fin took the child out of Olivia's arms "what's wrong with him?"

"I told him he we were coming to visit and his 'uncles' and he started acting like this. she replied

Fin focused on his son "Justin Troy Tutuola! Settle down right this second."

Justin stopped screaming and looked toward his 'uncle' Munch who was holding a lollipop towards him. Justin toddled off while his mommy and daddy talked

Fin turning to Olivia "Did you get Rylee to school on time?"

Olivia rolled her eyes and cocked a half grin "yes dad"..

Fin leaned towards Olivia whispering did you find a babysitter for tonight?

"Yeah Meghan from 2B said she would watch the kids."

Fin frowning "But she's what 17?"

"She's very responsible, plus we can leave your mother's number to call"

"I am still not sure about it Livy. Maybe we can ask one of the guys?"

"Sweetie, how can the guys when it's the office Christmas party?

"Maybe Elliot knows somebody?"

Olivia took Fin face into her hands. "Look at me mister I've already told Meghan she could. what time well you be home?" Olivia's voice was raised and all eyes turned to them.

"I'm not sure hon, should be early though, it's been slow so far today."

"Ok sweetie, I'm cooking spaghetti for the kids tonight.." Kissing him on the cheek.

Olivia looked up to noticed that Justin was with Munch, Stabler and Cragen. She walked over to her husband desk leaned against the edge. "So what's up guys?"

"Who gave my child candy?" Fin questioned the group Every pointed in the direction of Munch who just smile and shrugged his shoulders

"nothing much Liv, what about you" Elliot replied

"Just chasing this one around" replied Olivia

"that's enough work there" Cragen answered

"oh yeah, well guys I gotta go" Olivia replied

Fin leaned over and kissed Olivia. The kiss lasted longer than the two anticipated.

Olivia whispered "There will more of that, after the party tonight

Fin could hardly wait TILL after the party. The party would be great but. Their private party was always the best, Fin looked forward to "after" the party. "I love you babe, I'll talk to you later"

"I love you too, see you when you get home" she quickly kissed him on the cheek

Fin kissed Justin on the forehead. As Olivia and Justin walked away from the precinct. Fin's memory flashed back to the beginning of their relationship

FLASHBACK

The detectives' precinct had a rough case that involved the murder of a pregnant teen. Her baby had been cut from her womb while she was left for dead. To this day the case was still opened. Olivia had taken it really hard. She distanced herself from the other detectives. Fin decided to approach her after work one night in the parking garage. He asked why she was distancing her self from the guys. Deep down inside Fin had always had a crush on her, but didn't know how to approach her. She just replied that she felt sorry for the teen's family they had two members taken from them in a senseless killing. They continued to talk as they entered the local 'policeman's' bar. Olivia and Fin had been at the bar for a couple hours when he walked her back to her car at the parking garage. He opened the door for her. She asked if she could give him a ride home. On the way to his apartment he confessed his love for her. When the two arrived at his apartment she surprised him by kissing him on the lips. From the night, the two were a couple. They would catch diner and movie whenever they could. Fin tired to keep out of the office. That succeeded until the Christmas party. Fin and Olivia showed up together they claimed neither of them had dates, so they showed up together. Stabler and Munch didn't by it since, each of them had caught the "couple" making out in various places around the precinct. The secret came during the party when Olivia keep sneaking kisses, then when Fin spoke above the crowd and told Olivia he loved her that was the end of the secret.

End of Flashback

Fin came home around 7:00pm, Olivia was cooking the kids' dinner. Olivia peeked out from the kitchen when she heard the door open. "Hey Honey"

Fin: "hey baby"

Rylee: "DADDY"

Fin leaned down and greeted his daughter "hey baby girl, how was your day?"

"good, daddy I played with Daniel today, daddy guess what."

"what?" Fin asked with enthusiasm

"Meghan's coming."

Fin turned back to Olivia "yes I know" "Rylee, go play, I wanna talk to mommy 'k"

"ok daddy"

Rylee turned and ran toward her room. Fin walked into the kitchen and wrapped his hands around Olivia's waist. "How about we call Megan now and get our private party started now?" asked Fin while kissing Olivia up and down her neck.

Olivia cocked her heads toward Fin, " How about you go play with your son?" replied Olivia.

Fin did what Olivia asked him to do. She finished dinner as Megan arrived. When Olivia finished cooking, she went and got ready for the party, she slipped on a red dress that came to mid calf. Fin took a shower and was dressing in a suit with a tie that matched Olivia's dress. Olivia was fixing the kids plates when the door bell rang.

8:30pm

"Fin get the door, Megan's here" Fin was unable to answer the door because Rylee got there first.

Rylee: "MEGHAN!"

"hey Rylee, I brought color books"

"YAY! Rylee began to jump around"

"Rylee, RYLEE ANNE TUTUOLA stop right this second" Fin sternly told his daughter. Rylee instantly stopped. Olivia came up behind Fin with Justin in hand.

Fin: "ok Meghan my mother's phone number, my cell, Olivia's cell, the direct line to our precinct, and the hotel where will be are all on the refrig. We should be home no later than 3:00. Both kids in bed no later than 9:30. Ok Meghan"

"yes sir"

"There's plenty of food in the kitchen make your self at home." Olivia told Meghan. She turned to Fin " Ready honey?"

"yeah, oh Meghan no guests"

"yes I know sir, Mrs. Tutuola has already told me"

"okay then we will see you later"

"Rylee, come give mommy and daddy kisses we're leaving" Rylee came from her room

"bye daddy, bye mommy" she quickly kissed her parents goodbye. Fin and Olivia walked out into the hall ands towards the elevators.

"Do you think she locked the door?" Fin questioned Olivia.

"yes dear, now lets go."

Fin and Olivia walked onto the elevator. Once the doors were closed Fin grabbed Olivia by the waist and pushed her up against the back wall. "you look so sexy tonight Mrs. Tutuola" Fin pushed himself into Olivia

" So do you Mr. Tutuola" She leaned in and kissed him with the passion she could muster. The couple was startled by the ding from the elevator. Fin and Olivia walked into brisk wintry weather of the city. Fin hailed a cab for the two of them. They arrived at the party soon after.

Elliot was the first to approach the couple.

"hey guys, glad you could make it" greeted Elliot

"hey El" replied Olivia

"Can I have this dance Liv?" Elliot asked

"sure" Elliot escorted Olivia out on to the dance floor. The two danced to one song. Then Fin came in cut in. Fin took Olivia into his arms, wrapping his arms around her waist.

Fin: " you looked so gorgeous out here dancing, the way your hips move."

"You are such a sweet talker I love you Odafin" exclaimed Olivia

"And I love you Olivia" replied Fin

Olivia and Fin danced and mingled with the other detectives. A few hours later the party started breaking up. Fin and Olivia went home to start "their" party.
