Just because I think I'm taking to long writing this story I'm gonna do this. I also dedicate this chapter to my sister Jen. Luv Ya!
One Year Later.
Olivia stood in front of her mother's tombstone with red flowers in her hand; the stone read "Serena Benson, Beloved Daughter, and Beloved Mother 1967-2005." She was the one who wanted to put beloved mother on it. No one really understood why she had decided to put it, she really had no idea why herself. But she got one idea last night, maybe it was the fact that Serena was the only family she knew for 17 year, don't get her wrong though because she did love her mom but she wasn't what Serena wanted.
"Mom you made me suffer for so long" She said with tears in her eyes. "But because of what you did to me in the passed now, in the present, I got a way better life but I do want you to know you…….will…..always…….have……..a……place……in…..my……heart." She said.
She looked at the stone one more time threw the flowers one the ground and left.

On her way home, in her dad's car, Olivia passed by her old neighborhood and noticed nothing changed while she was gone. She saw the same Hispanic kids chilling on the stoop of their buildings as if waiting for life to go by right there and something good or great to happen that she saw a lot before and the same cops on the corner like they were waiting for something big to go down but it never did, that's exactly how she used to be.
Her phone began to ring. "Hello?" She asked into it.
"Hey Liv, you coming over?" She heard the voice of Elliot on the other end which made her smile widely.
"Who's gonna be there?" She asked.
"Well everyone you know, John, Alex, Fin, Jen, Katie, Greg, Casey, Abby, Melinda, Monique, Sam, Josh, Andrea, and Dean." All the couples basically, whom Olivia got close to very quickly.
"Oh you really meant everyone. Well of course I'm going then. Are Jen and Fin doing okay?" She asked. A couple of months after everything all the couples changed because everyone noticed they really didn't like who they were dating anymore.
"Yeah you saw them yesterday."
"I know but I still cant belive their together, you know how long after Fin and Melinda broke up I had to convince Jen to go out with him." She said smiling.
"Yeah, well if you don't remember I helped out with that so…."
"Yeah, yeah I know you convinced Fin that she is perfect for him, you know you are a little show off." She said laughing.
"Alright, let me let you go so that we don't have any accidents on the road." Elliot said making fun of her because once she was driving and talking on the phone at the same time and swerved at the wrong time because she was so interested in what the conversation was about.
"Ha, ha, ha Elliot how am I gonna get you to forget about that I know dad hasn't given me a break about it since it happened." She said laughing. "Alright, bye baby."
"Bye Liv." He said sending her a kiss and hanging up the phone. She drove the rest of the way home without any interruptions.

"Mom, dad I'm home!" She yelled putting her jacket and purse in their rightful places.
"Hey Hunnie." She heard her mother from the kitchen. She walked into the kitchen and saw her mother in a chair reading a magazine; she walked over to her, gave her a tight hug and a kiss on the check and sat down next to her.
"Where's dad?" She asked eating a cookie.
"He is at James house right now." She said not looking up from the magazine.
"Wow, and I just came by to ask if I could go over there."
"You may go but remember something." She said finally looking up.
"What's that mom?"
"Bring your father back home please, I think if we could live with James we would." She said with a laugh.
"True but the real question here is can I get him to come home without making him whine or cry." Olivia replied with a laugh.
"Alright bye Hunnie, I'll see you later." She said giving her daughter a kiss on the cheek and hugging her.
"Bye mom, Love you." Olivia said as she walked out the door. She arrived at the Stabler house and she noticed all the cars in the driveway. "I'm probably the last one here." She thought to herself as she walked to the door. She knocked and the door was answered by little Jessie.
"Hi Olivia!" She said perky like she always is.
"Hi Jessie, what's up?" She asked as she walked in.
"Nothing, you know except the usual this kid name Jimmy likes me in class but I think he's dumb because he stuck gum on my new shirt it was so gross." She said making a face.
"Well all guys are like that sometimes but they can be really nice too." She said in a sweet voice.
