Summer has come and past.
The innocent can never last.
Wake me up when September ends.

Like my fathers come to pass,
Seven years has gone so fast.
Wake me up when September ends.

Here comes the rain again,
Falling from the stars.
Drenched in my pain again,
Becoming who we are.
As my memory rests
But never forgets what I lost.
Wake me up when September ends.

Summer has come and past.
The innocent can never last.
Wake me up when September ends.

Ring out the bells again.
Like we did when spring began.
Wake me up when September ends.

Here comes the rain again,
Falling from the stars.
Drenched in my pain again,
Becoming who we are.
As my memory rest,
But never forgets what I lost.
Wake me up when September ends.

Summer has come and past.
The innocent can never last.
Wake me up when September ends.

Like my fathers come to pass.
Twenty years has gone so fast.
Wake me up when September ends

With that, the two detectives left the hospital. The ride back was silence. If thoughts could be heard, they would be yelling. After all these years, she thought she was an only child. Olivia's mom knew about Chealsea, and never even told her. She didn't know what to think of Chealsea, she was Olivia's sister but other than that she was ignorant in the matter.

The car was parallel parked next to Mike's Pizza shop.

"What are we doing here El?" Liv asked without looking up.

"Well, you need to eat something Liv, and I am a bit hungry myself so...we could kill two birds with one stone an eat while talking about...anything."

"Alright, then lets' go over the case."

""Did I say talk about anything? I meant talk about anything but the case. You need some rest Liv, and this is the only way I thought of so far to get you away from the job. And besides, we haven't gone out together for a long time, I have to admit, I am kind of starting to miss you."

"Yeah me too, Mr. Bad grammer."

"What are you talking about?"

"You said and besides right behing each other, you are not supposed to."

"Ok, Miss. English teacher." For a few moments they just laughed. Neither could remember the last time both had laughed so freely. Entering the Pizzeria, a waitress sat the at a distant booth.

"Hi, my name is Jody and I will be your waitress today, wll you be needing any time to look over the menu?"

"No, we have only been here a thousand times. We will have the pepperoni and sausage please, thanks." The waitress left leaving the two detectives to themselves.

Inevitably asking his infamous question, Elliot spoke.

"So how are you Liv?"

Glancing up from her watch, Olivia pondered whether or not to open up to him or just nonchalantly shrug it off.

"Well, you know how people say they just take it day by day?"

"Yeah."

"Well I am just taking it minute by minute. Everything is happening so fast and if one more catastrophy happens to me just one more time, I swear I will explode."

Elliot nodded reassuringly while holding her hand. It hadn't even been a good two monthes since Olivia's attack and now she had to deal with Chealsea and Charly Anderson. At least she had Elliot, without him she didn't know what she would do. Olivia loved him so much and he is always there for her.

The pizza arrived and they ate in blissful silence. Climing back into Olivia's car, Elliot's phone rang incessantly.

"Stabler...Yeah ok, I'm actually coming back there now. Be back in five." Hanging up, Elliot turned to Olivia telling her that they were ready to interogate the perp.

"Elliot, I was thinking about it and I want to do the interrogation."

"Alright."

Arriving at the office, the Captain decided to detain the interrogation till the following day. And with this, Olivia and Elliot retired home.

1-6 precint SVU department.

7:00 a.m

At the office, Elliot was worried about Olivia. She hadn't even shed a tear. Just lost in thought. They were about to interrogat Charly Anderson and no matter how hard he tried, Olivia still insisted on going through with it. It was seven in the morning and she still wasn't at work.

Wondering if he should call her, Elliot decided against it. The swinging precint doors swung open bringing in Olivia. Heading straight for the coffe maching, he knew she was eeling down or at least upset.

Caustiously heading her way, he spoke the first words.

"Good morning Liv, how are you today?" Staring out Olivia was spaced out. Almost like she wasn't even teir. Elliot noted this and waved his hand in his partner's face.

"What are you doing Eli?" Olivia asked surprised.

"I was asking you how you were today.? Elliot replied. Realizing she hadn't answer him from befor, she quickly replied a short answer to him that spoke volumes to Elliot.

"Fine." Walking to the chairs, she remembered about their suspect.

"Let's go interrogat Charly."

Elliot couldn't find anyway to stop her so he just followed in defeat. Once in the interrogation room, Dr. Huang and Cragen stood behind the two way mirror. They were watching Olivia, not the perp. It had started.

"So why did you do it Mr. Anderson?" Olivia asked rather calmly.

"Like I am going to tell you." Glancing at Elliot, Olivia saw his eyes. Never had she seen him with such piercing eyes. Sharp daggers threatened to harm the perp. And for the first time she was actually intimidated by him.

Dr. Huang saw this and took note of it.

"Answer Detective Benson's question!" Elliot beraed him. Out of the corner of his eye, Elliot saw Olivia jump slightly.

"Of course, anything for my lovely daughter. It's good to know I have another to love if Chealsea gets too messed up...Guess I don't realize my own strenght." By now Elliot was infuriated, about to react, Olivia spoke first.

"You know what? I don't care why you did it. I already know...Its cause you a sick sonuvabitch who can't get anyone except by force." Playing off her, Elliot began.

"Exactly, just give us dates and times and so forth. Maybe we will reconsider the death penalty." Looking out the window Elliot was stratagising his next group of threats. Olivia rose from her seat to get the 'confession board' from the wall behind her.

Slowly and quietly, the perp stood, unbenounced to either detectives. Making his way over to Olivia, he managed to grip her gun from its' holster.

Feeling something brush against her, Olivia quickly turned to face Charly Anderson pointing her own gun at hr. A surprise gasp escaped Liv's mouth. Elliot heard and spun around.

Almost instantly he had his gun traine on the perp. Banging arrived on the door. It was jammed and Liv knew this. She talked about getting a new door for a month but no one listened.

"Back against the wall Olivia...Come on do as daddy says." The barrel in his gun clicked and Olivia was soon against the wall.

Her face was as straight as ever. Elliot applied pressure to his trigger. The needed him alive but having Olivia alive was more important.

As if tired of the situation, Liv unexpectedly spoke.

"If your gonna shoot me, do it now and get it over with. I don't got all day here." This rose a smile to the perp's face.

"I don't want th hurt you babe, actually on the contrary...I want to touch you and be with you, full experience how you are at least once." Disgust washed over Olivia's face while Elliot's was filled with hate.

Elliot looked as if he would pounce any omnet. She must of had a death wish cause Olivia talked again.

"Fat chance in hell that's happening pops."

And with that he rushed up to Olivia, gun to her throat and fondled Olivia's stomach, slowly edging downward.

This surprised and completly paralyzed Olivia. Elliot couldn't just let this happen to her agian, especally by her own father. In a blink of an eye, Elliot shot his gun causing a thump to sound ont the floor with another shot fired.

A female voice penetrated through the air in pain. Slowly sliding to the floor, Olivia tried to speak.

"El..."

Coming to her side, Elliot silenced her. Moments too late, Fin rushed in telling them the bus was on its way. Holding Olivia in her arms, Elliot ran his fingers through her wet hair trying to comfort her. While doing this, she passed out.

With the detectives in tow, the EMTs rushed to the St. Mary's hospital. Trying to stabalize her, Elliot was in the bus holding her hand.

"How bad is it looking?" Elliot questioned the unnamed technician.

"Not sure, the gun shot entered through her middle torso, it looks like it went through the second rib on the right side of the rib cage. We need to get to the hospital soon, she might habe blood pouring out into her lungs. She will make it, she will have to fight but she should make it." the tech went back to work.

Lost in his thoughts, Elliot knew Olivia was ready to give up. She has been hiding all the pain for years and now its taking its price from her.

Elliot just prays that she will fight through it. Right now its just fifty/fifty on how she recovers and how quickly.

At least she would have the peace of mind that her bastard of a father would never hurt anyone again.His evil ways had finally died. His crime weren't prosecuted by the law, but by death.

Two hours later

Wating room

9:30 a.m roughly

Finally getting out of his chair for the third time, Elliot pased frantically. The doctors had already been working on Olivia for about two hours and they haven't heard anything yet.

Fin noticed this and tried to calm his shaken nerves. They were all taken back by this. Olivia was family to them all, but Elliot loved her more than he cared for his own life.

"Elliot, she will be fine she is a fighter you know that."

"Yeah, Fin, but didn't you hear and see how she was acting in the interrogation room? I shouldn't of let her go in.I should of known it would be too much for her."

"Ok first of all you can't let Olvia do anything, its her choice. And like I said, she is gonna pull through. I know Huang said she was sick of living but if for anything, she will come back for you Elliot."

Elliot smile a slight thank you to Fin and a doctor walked up to theme.

"Is there a detective Stabler here?"

"Yes that's me. How is she?" Moving over to the side, the docter spoke.

"She named you in her living will and we need you to make a decision. Now you have 90 days so no rush right now. In fact you decision would be premature nor. She is currently in a coma but we are thinking she should wake up soon, if she doesn't you decide what we do."

"Alright, can we see her now?"

"Sure only fifteen minutes though." And with that, Elliot told everybody the news and went to see Olivia. Opening the door maching beeped furiously.

It pained him so much to see her like that. If he could switch plasces wiht her, he would in a heartbeat.

He would never leave Olivia's side nor sighn her life away. Days passed and no change happened in Olivia's condition. As his energy was wearing thin, Elliot was forced to sleep at his apartment.

Cragen gave hime the week off and for that he was thankful.It didn't seem right to work without his favorit partner. With that on his mind, his cell phone screamed its tune.

"Stabler." moments passed.

"Yeah, I can. I will be there in a few minutes...how is she?"

"Alright, bye docter." shutting his phone a smile blessed his lips. Elliot locked his door, then flew for the door of his car. He had already called all their friend at work. Coming into Olivia's room at the hospital her docter was beside the bed. Checking her motor skills, he spoke gently to her and saw she was physically recovering well. The docter took notice and excused himself from the room. It had been a little over two days, the docter called him the third day and Olivia was already out of the coma.

Although this was good, she wasn't out of the woods completly. Respirator machines were hooked to her mouth. Taking a seat, Elliot gently yet firmly grasped her hand looking up to see her blinking in his directions.

So yeah, I know its been awhile since I updated but I hope this makes up for it, my life has been pretty hectic but why would you care, now please review.:) Thanks!
