Thanx for the reviews and i hope you all had a good holiday!
Everything about this felt wrong to him. Don was horrified by the way Olivia was acting. She was like his daughter; he even walked her down the aisle when she and Elliot got married. This hurt him worse than anyone else. His "daughter" should be happy playing with her newborn not mourning the lost of her oldest. Kathy was going to pay for this.
He walked up to their door with Munch, Fin, Cassie, Cassidy, Monique, and Alex behind him. Melinda couldn't make it. He had only called Cassie but all the others had some how found out. He loved it how they were so much like a big family and when one of them was is need the others were there.
He knocked on the door only once before Elliot was opening it. Don looked at his "son-in-law" and the exhaustion on his face was evident. Cassie, Monique, and Alex walked in first taking the baby away from him. The men came in and they all headed towards the living room.
"How's she doing?" Don asked.
"All she does is cry and yell at me. She doesn't even want to hold Annabel anymore, Don. What am I going to do?" He asked the stress evident in his voice.
"I'm sorry Elliot, she's obviously depressed. Can I see her?" Munch asked. Olivia was like his sister someone very important to him, someone he needed to protect.
"Sure but I don't think you'll get anything. She's in Anna's room." He said pointing towards the room.
He walked cautiously towards the baby's room so that he wouldn't frighten her. Unfortunately he found her in a different room, Andy's room. She was lying down on the area that he was found. You could still see some dried blood in the carpet.
"Hey Liv." He said walking towards her. He got no reply. "Liv, can we talk?" He asked.
"There's nothing to talk about." She said blankly. "My baby is dead and it's my entire fault."
"Livia, it's not your fault that Andy's gone, you didn't pull the trigger on that gun." He told her coming closer.
"That might be true but I was the one who ignored all the warnings, and left him here unprotected."
"Olivia, your not super woman and you don't have powers so you couldn't have seen what was going to happen. The only person to blame here is Kathy." At the sound of her name Olivia broke down.
"Why didn't I trust my instincts and stay with him or at least bring him with me?" She asked herself in tears. Munch went over to her and held her, which he's never done before, and shushed her.
He whispered in her ear. "I'm sorry Liv, but this wasn't your fault, I'm so sorry." He continued to whisper.
He left the room 25 minutes later with no luck, so Fin went in, he thought of Olivia as a younger sister who he had to protect.
He walked into the room to find Olivia sitting on Andy's bed in a fetal position staring into space.
"Hey Liv." He said repeating his partner's words. But unlike his partner Olivia had an answer for him.
"Fin, I don't need you telling me it wasn't my fault that Andy died, because it has to be, I got the warnings and I ignored them. It's as my fault as much as it is Kathy's. It was like if I had pulled the trigger." She said tears streaming down her face but the tears weren't evident in her voice.
"Olivia I know you, you are the last person I would think would start blaming herself instead going after this bitch." Fin said.
"Fin I love you like a brother you know that and I would trust you with everything but in my heart as much as I may tell myself what you just told me it's not getting through to my brain, the minute that Andy died I did too."
"Olivia that's not true. Your still breathing, your hearts pounding, and I'm here talking to you. You're not even close to death."
She walked up to him and hugged him. "You know that this isn't going to work, so why even try?" She whispered to him.
"Because I love, we love you, and what you're doing to yourself hurts us. Elliot wants you back and your baby wants her mother." He whispered into her ear and backed away from her and left leaving Olivia thinking.
Fin walked into the living room thinking he didn't do any different then the others, but he was so wrong.
"I'm going to go talk to her." Don said getting up.
They just nodded and continued to talk, the women were still in the kitchen playing with the baby and praying their friend would get better.
Don went into Andy's room, but she didn't find Liv there. He went into Annabel's room, but she wasn't there either. Surprisingly he found her in the master bedroom, changing.
He knocked on the door and she looked towards it. "Hey dad." She said giving him a small smile.
"Olivia what are you doing?" He asked wondering why she was getting into the cloth she usually put on for work. But instead of a red, blue, or orange shirt it was a black one with dark jeans and some black Air Force ones (sneakers).
"I'm changing; I'm going to go find this bitch." She said putting her gun in her jeans.
"Olivia your not okay, you can't just go after her, in the state of mind your in you could kill her." He said walking closer to her.
"Dad, you don't understand, she killed my son and as much as I want to kill her I can control myself, so you either help me or you don't." She said finishing up. (I decided that since they are like daughter and father, Olivia should call Don Dad.)
She turned towards him and looked him square in the eye. He thought about it for a while……. "Olivia you know I'm always here and this isn't any different." She walked over to him and embraced him in a deep hug.
"Thanks, Dad I knew I could trust you." They walked to the living room, and when everyone realized Olivia was with Don they stayed quiet.
"Are you guys going to help me catch this bitch?" She asked with her hands on her hips.
Fin stood up and asked, "Ready when you are."
