Disclaimer: I told Dick to tell his people to call my people...and were still waiting
"Cragen..." the day was slower then most days so he let the rest of the squad take a longer lunch then normal.
"Are you sure?" you could see the water around the rim of his eyes.
"Ok, well thank you" his eyes went to the photo on he desk.
Flashback
"Come on guys just one more and then we can go back inside"
"But Liv it's cold out here, madder of fact it's beyond cold"
"Shut up Fin, today's my daughters wedding day and your going to do what she asks of you" Cragen gave him 'the eye' and left it at that.
"I love you Olivia" and then there was a flash
End flashback
Footsteps could be herd as they were coming towards his office "Cap were back" he looked up hopping that the tears that had fallen from his eyes weren't visible.
All he could do was shake his head ok. As he was walking out of his office he looked over at Olivia "uhh, can I talk to you?"
She could tell that there was something wrong, not because his face was stained with tears or that he could barley talk, but because she felt it. "Yea sure" she got up from her desk and followed Cragen looking at Munch and Fin on the way.
He shut the door and turned to look at her "I wish there was a better way to tell you this" he closed his eyes and dropped his head "I got a call before you came back from lunch, there was an accident" he took a step towards her.
"no" she said it with no more then a whisper "it can't be. I was jus-" and that's when she broke, but she didn't cry she just fell into his arms and he was there to catch her. "How dad? I mean we were just together"
he opened his mouth to say something but found that he was at a loss for words.
She ran out the door not knowing where she was going but eventually ending up just sitting in her car. She took off her wedding band and looked at it. On the inside it read Carpe Diem "Seize the day" she put her head back and closed her eyes "Why, it's never enough is it" she started the car and rolled the window down letting the cold winter air hit roughly against her face. She still couldn't bring herself to cry, it's not that she wasn't feeling the pain, it was more that it hadn't really hit her yet.
2 days later
Olivia found herself sitting with the guys from the squad along with Casey. They were sitting in the first row usually made for immediate family, and as the ceremony went on she found her mind wondering. Turning her head just a little bit and looking down the row of people she thought to herself "this is real" she squeezed Cragen's hand, today he wasn't her boss, today he was her father.
As her mind focused back to what was happening she heard the song. It was no more then a day ago that she was approached by Eliot asking what song she wanted played at the service and as the memory of that day came and went she could here the words of the song playing softly, she knew it was a cliche song but it's what was wanted.
I will remember you
Will you remember me?
Don't let your life pass you by
Weep not for the memories
Remember all the good times that we had
We let them slip away from us when things got bad
Clearly I first saw you, smiling in the sun
I want to feel your warmth upon me, I want to be the one
I will remember you
Will you remember me?
Don't let your life pass you by
Weep not for the memories
I'm so tired, I can't sleep
Standin' on the edge of something much too deep
It's funny how we feel so much but we cannot say a word
We are screaming inside, we can't be heard
I will remember you
Will you remember me?
Don't let your life pass you by
Weep not for the memories
I'm so afraid to love you, but more afraid to lose
Clinging to a past that doesn't let me choose
Once there was a darkness, deep and endless nightGave me everything he had, oh he gave me life
And I will remember you
Will you remember me?
Don't let your life pass you by
Weep not for the memories
I will remember you
Will you remember me?
Don't let your life pass you by
Weep not for the memories
Weep not for the memories
As everyone was standing outside watching as they put what was left of the person she loved to rest, she found her eyes wondering not being able to look at what was talking place in front of her. She noticed a black Mercedes Benz sitting towards her rightand a man leaning on the side of it, but what really got her attention was what she saw behind the tree.
She felt a hand on her shoulder and forced herself to turn around "you okay Liv?" all she could do was nod not trusting her voice. She saw Eliot walking away along with the others who attended the service. She looked back to the tree and saw the person walking back towards the car "hey, wait" before she could say more the person had gotten into the car and was getting ready to drive off. As the car started and it went along the path, the person in the back seat rolled down the window and nodded taking off the cowboy hat that they were warring.
Olivia said to herself "oh my god that's..."
A/N haha cliffhanger but tell ya what, if you review and tell me if I should do another chapter we'll see if we can make this into something good!
