A/N: I don't own any of the characters except my own. Enjoy!
Olivia opened the door.
"Trevor, what brings you here?"
"Olivia, we need to talk."
"Ok. Come in."
Trevor walked in and went to sit down. Olivia went to check on Noah and then she sat on the sofa.
"What's going on?"
"I'm in love with you and have been for a long time. I want to be with you and I don't care if you don't date lawyers. I want you to give us a chance."
Olivia sat there stunned when Trevor moved closer to her and kissed her.
"Olivia, I want you so bad."
"Uh…I can't do this."
"Why not?"
"Because of this."
Olivia held up her left hand.
"Oh. I am so sorry."
"It's ok. You had no way of knowing that I was with someone. I'm not going to deny that I didn't have feelings for you at some point but I am completely devoted to my fiancé. If you had come here several months ago and told me the same thing, I may have given in to you. I care about you but only as a friend. I appreciate all your help with Noah's adoption."
"You did have feelings for me?"
"Yeah. I just never wanted to admit it."
"Obviously, I could never admit it until now. Can you forgive me for doing this?"
"Yes. Since you're here, you might as well know that effective March 1st, I am taking a position with Chicago PD Special Victims. My last day here is February 26th."
"That's great. Congratulations."
"Thank you."
"I take it your fiancé is in Chicago?"
"Yes, he is. We met working on a couple cases together. I was held hostage a little over a month ago and Hank was in town. Tucker was brought in as the hostage negotiator. Hank got into the building to help get me and the other hostages out. I told him how I felt about him and we have been together ever since. I've actually been in love with him since we met 15 months ago. We got engaged Friday night after only a month together."
"I'm really happy for you."
"He wants to adopt Noah. Does that have to go through you or Judge Linden?"
"I can look into it. I'll check first thing in the morning."
"Ok. He will be in town from Wednesday through the weekend, so he'll be here if he needs to do anything."
"I'll let you know."
"Ok. I am going to have to tell him about this though. I can't keep this from him."
"I understand. Again, I apologize. I shouldn't have come on so strong."
Trevor got up and left and then Olivia locked up. She called Hank but got his voicemail.
"Hey, it's me. Call me when you have time. We need to talk."
Olivia hung up the phone and went into her bedroom. She dreaded telling Hank but she knew it was the right thing to do. Hank got her message and called her back.
"Hey."
"Hey. What's going on?"
"Remember I told you about Trevor Langan, the lawyer who handled Noah's adoption?"
"Yeah. What about him?"
"He showed up at my apartment after Melinda left and I put Noah to bed. He told me he was in love with me and has been for a long time. He kissed me and told me he wanted me bad. I told him I couldn't and showed him my left hand. I said I was completely devoted to my fiancé. I told him that I once had feelings for him and if he had shown up several months ago, I may have given in to him. Other than the kiss, nothing happened. I swear. I told him I cared about him but only as a friend."
She got no response from Hank.
"Hank, will you please say something?"
"I need to go."
"Don't do that, Hank."
Hank hung up and then Olivia ended up crying herself to sleep. The next day, Olivia got up and went to work. She asked Amanda to be a Bridesmaid and also asked her about Jesse. She thought it would be ok. She also asked Fin to walk her down the aisle. Throughout the day, they had a few cases but Olivia could not keep her mind off her last conversation with Hank. She hadn't heard from him all day. At the end of the day, she went home and had dinner with her son. She kept looking at her phone to see if he called or texted. Still nothing. She gave Noah a bath and put him to bed before she started doing some packing when she heard a knock at the door. She went to answer it.
"Hank."
"Hey. I felt like such a jerk last night, so I changed my reservation to come sooner."
"Come on in."
Hank walked in and put his suitcase in the bedroom. They sat on the sofa and he put his arms around Olivia.
"Nothing happened with Trevor. I swear."
"I know. I'm guessing you wouldn't have told me if something had."
"I would have but I wouldn't have been able to live with myself if it had. I asked him about you adopting Noah. He's looking into it."
"Ok. You had feelings for this guy at one point?"
"Yes but I was never able to admit to it."
"Then you actually had 3 men in love with you at one time."
"Yeah, I guess. You're still my first choice."
"Then who?"
"Probably Trevor even though he can be a jerk sometimes but at least his heart is in the right place. He was my lawyer when IAB, in this case, Tucker, was accusing me of killing a biker. It actually started then but those feelings returned during the adoption. I was also trying to sort out how I felt about you. If you hadn't come here when I was being held hostage, I probably would have said something to you during this last case. Besides Noah, you're the best thing to ever happen to me. My heart belongs to you and only you. Are we ok?"
"We're fine."
"Good. I was going crazy because I hadn't heard from you all day."
"I just needed time to think about this. Erin told me that if you said nothing happened, then nothing happened."
"Nothing happened. This ring on my finger may only be an engagement ring but to me it means as much as the one I'll be getting next May. I sometimes feel like we're already married."
"I do too. We just need to get through the next week."
Hank and Olivia started kissing but neither of them realized that Noah was out of bed and behind the sofa watching them.
"Ew!"
"I thought I put you to bed. Come here."
Noah walked around and crawled up on the sofa.
"Daddy!"
"Hey, Little Man."
Noah gave Hank a big hug.
"You know who else is coming to visit you?"
"No."
"Erin."
"Yay!"
"I didn't know she was coming."
"Now all of a sudden she decided she wanted to take a few days off. She's flying in tomorrow when I was supposed to be coming in."
"I was thinking. Is Justin able to get a lot of time off?"
"If it's preapproved. Why?"
"I know it doesn't sound very romantic but what if we do Disney World for the honeymoon but take Noah, Justin and his family with us? We'd probably have to take Alyssa too. Also, if you'd allow it, maybe Erin and Jay too. That way the entire family can be together."
"That would be something to think about. I take it you know who wants to go see Mickey Mouse?"
"Oh yeah. His mom does too."
"Mickey!"
"We could do the Disney thing any time and still go somewhere by ourselves for our honeymoon. I was thinking about a cruise or the Bahamas or something like that."
"Hawaii?"
"That too."
"I'm not even going to tell you what Fin said."
"This should be interesting."
"He said we should come here and stay at one of the fancy hotels."
"I'll pass on that. Maybe we can do a Disney trip this year for someone's b-i-r-t-h-d-a-y. I'd rather have you all to myself on our honeymoon."
"Actually, that's not a bad idea. I would just prefer not to go for Christmas."
"Why don't we try for after Thanksgiving or the early part of December. You should have time off by then."
"Sounds like a plan to me."
"I'll talk to Justin and the other two."
"You'd be ok with not having 3 of you there for a week?"
"Oh yeah. I could probably get Burgess and Roman to fill in if I have to. I think he's asleep."
"Yes, he is. He has his arms around your neck, so it won't be easy to pry him off of you. He has a good grip."
"Justin used to do this at this age too."
Hank got up and went into Noah's room. He put Noah down on the bed and tried to move his arms from around his neck the same way he used to with Justin as Olivia watched him. He then put his blankets on him and tucked his teddy bear in his arms. He kissed his forehead and then left the room. He then pulled Olivia into his arms as she put her arms around him.
"You are absolutely amazing with him. Maybe you're just trying to win me over."
"I think I have already done that."
"It didn't take much. I admit I didn't like you very much when we first met and you barged into my interrogation room to intimidate the suspect into talking. I dealt with that quite a bit with my former partner over the years and we were partners for 12."
"I've never cared what people think of me. Not too many people can put me in my place and get away with it either. I guess I do need that every once in a while."
"Oh, I'm sure you do."
They started kissing and then they headed to her bedroom. They undressed each other and made love. Afterwards, he had his arms around her and she had her head on his chest.
"Can I ask you something?"
"Of course."
"Did you have feelings for your former partner?"
"Yes and no. He was my best friend, so I cared deeply for him. We also went undercover as a couple many times. He was married and had 5 children. I helped deliver their youngest son when his wife and I were in a car accident on the way to her doctor's appointment. We were in the ambulance on our way to the hospital and she gave birth there. Sometimes he spent more time with me than he did with his family. I was envious of him because it seemed like he had it all and that's all I have ever wanted. The one thing I wanted the most was to be a mother. I finally made that become reality when that little boy in the other room came into my life. I wish I had the chance to have one of my own but at this stage of my life, I'm not so sure I want to now. I would like to adopt again. We had this case several months ago where the children were being neglected and the Case Workers were falsifying their reports by not meeting with the families they were supposed to be meeting with. Anyway, because of their negligence, a girl that was being kept in a cage died and the boy had to be put into foster care, while the mother is in prison. After that case, I started realizing that I wanted more kids. If I was 5 years or more younger, I would love to have a baby with you but I think I am too old at this point."
"We haven't necessarily been careful though."
"I know. My cycle is goofy, which comes with age and I am under a lot of stress. I'm ok with it as long as I have you and Noah."
"You'll always have me. I'm not going anywhere. I'm guessing he's not either. Somehow you won Justin over. He was pretty close to Camille."
"I love Justin and Daniel as much as I love you. I also love Justin as much as Noah. I hope once you and I are married, my relationship with him continues to grow."
"I think it will. Justin not only loves you but he loves Noah too."
"He loves Justin. I love those pictures Erin sent."
"Me too. I have the one of us and the one of you and Erin on my desk and the one of you by my bed. I see you put mine by your bed."
"Of course. Then I can see that handsome face of yours when we're not together. I have one of us and one of my 4 boys on my desk. I'll put more in my new office but right now, I just wanted a couple."
"Erin and Jay have matching pictures on their desks of course. We are the wallpaper on my phone."
"Mine too. I should probably get to sleep."
"Ok."
They kissed each other and then they fell asleep. The next morning, Olivia woke up first and went to get ready for work. While she was in the shower, Hank got up and went into the bathroom. He got into the shower with her and wrapped his arms around her waist as he kissed her neck.
"Good morning."
"Good morning, yourself, Beautiful."
Olivia turned around and they started kissing.
"I don't have time for this."
"You're the boss, so does it really matter?"
"It should but it doesn't."
They made love and then they both finished up in the shower. Hank went to get her tea ready and got her something for breakfast, while she finished getting ready. Noah got up and walked out of his room.
"Potty, Mama."
Go find Daddy, ok?"
"K."
Noah went to find Hank.
"Potty, Daddy."
"Ok, Little Man."
Hank took Noah to the bathroom, while Olivia got her stuff together.
"Ok, I'm leaving. You boys behave yourselves."
"Don't I always?"
"I'm not going to answer that."
"That's funny, Benson!"
"I try to be."
Olivia kissed them both and then she headed out the door. As she was leaving, Lucy and Alyssa were arriving.
"Morning, Olivia."
"Morning. Hank is here but I'm not sure what they're up to."
"Ok. We were going to pack more stuff anyway."
"Sounds like a plan to me. Have fun."
"You too. Have a good day."
"I'll try."
Olivia left and headed to the Precinct, while Lucy and Alyssa went inside. Hank was coming into the kitchen with Noah.
"Morning."
"Good morning, ladies."
"Hi, Lucy. Hi, Lyssa."
"Hey, Noah. Hank, are you going to need us?"
"I think we'll be ok. I have to go pick up Erin at the airport and I will take the kids with me, so we can stop at the Precinct. We will need you tonight though. Erin is staying here but I think she said she was thinking about spending time with Rollins and Jesse while we are at the game."
"That's fine. We were going to pack more stuff anyway."
There was a knock at the door, so Hank answered it.
"Hey, Rollins."
"Hey. Did Liv leave already?"
"She did."
"I am running so late."
Amanda kissed Jesse and handed her to Hank.
"Congratulations on the engagement."
"Thanks."
Amanda left and headed to the Precinct.
"Hey there, pretty girl."
Jesse smiled at Hank and then he handed her to Lucy, so he could finish getting Noah's breakfast. After Noah ate, Alyssa took him to get dressed, while Hank went to get dressed. Several hours had passed and Hank checked on the status of Erin's flight before leaving for the airport. It was on time, so he put the kids' car seats in his vehicle and drove to the airport. He of course got stuck in traffic on the way. By the time he finally got there, Erin was waiting for him. He got out of the car to help her with her bag.
"I thought you forgot."
"No. We got stuck in traffic."
"We?"
"Noah and Jesse are in the backseat."
Hank put Erin's luggage in the back, while she got in.
"Hey, Noah."
"Hi, Erin."
Hank drove to the Precinct and then they got the kids out of their seats before they went in. They went up to SVU and Noah had his coat off in the elevator revealing his Blackhawks shirt that he had gotten from Hank.
"Liv's going to kill you. You know that, right?"
"She knows I bought it for him. He got it last weekend. Alyssa dressed him. Not me."
"Yeah and you have yours on."
"And you don't?
"I won't deny that."
The elevator opened and Noah ran out.
"Noah, stay with us."
Erin was carrying Jesse, so Noah wanted Hank to carry him.
"That looks like Noah Benson except he's wearing a shirt for that other team. Traitor."
Noah started giggling at Fin and then Jesse started giggling at him too.
"How's Mama's sweet girl?"
Jesse smiled at Amanda as Hank went to poke his head into Olivia's office. Trevor was there talking to her about the adoption.
"Hello, Lieutenant."
"Sergeant. Come in here please."
Hank walked into her office.
Hank this is Trevor Langan. Trevor, this is Sergeant Hank Voight, my fiancé."
"It's nice to meet you."
"You too."
"I wanted to apologize for what happened the other night."
"I trust her completely."
Then Erin poked her head in.
"Hey, Liv."
"Erin, hi. Erin, this is Trevor Langan. Trevor, this is Detective Erin Lindsay from Chicago. Hank, what did you dress my son in?"
"Alyssa dressed him."
"That's right. She's one of you too. We are meeting with the Judge tomorrow morning."
"Ok."
"It's nice to meet you, Erin."
"You too."
Then Tucker came in.
"Lieutenant."
"Captain."
"Counselor."
"Captain Tucker."
"Sergeant Voight."
"Captain Tucker."
"Detective Lindsay."
"Captain Tucker."
"Hey, Noah."
Noah decided to play shy and buried his face in Hank's neck. Then he wrapped his arms around him.
"Love you, Daddy."
"I love you too."
"What can I do for you, Captain?"
"Did you two pick a night for dinner?"
"We haven't really talked about it. I don't know, tomorrow."
"Works for me."
"Sounds fine."
"You couldn't have called me?"
"I wouldn't be me if I didn't just show up, now would I?"
"Oh, probably not."
Then Hank's cell phone rang.
"What's going on, Olinsky?"
"I wanted to see if you and Erin got there ok."
"I flew in last night and Erin got in a little bit ago."
"Couldn't wait, huh?"
"Yeah, something like that. We had an issue we had to resolve."
"What kind of issue?"
"That's not important. Everything is fine and we are more in love than ever. Another week and a few days and we'll be together full-time. It can't get any better than that."
"I still can't believe you're getting married again."
"I didn't think I wanted to but even after only a month together, it seems like we've been together a lot longer."
"Maybe it's because you've been in love with her since you first met her 15 months ago."
"Sometimes I wonder what she sees in me. I also wondered the same thing about Camille."
"Do you think Olivia could have done better than you?"
"Honestly, yes."
"She chose you though. She's relocating for you and she's marrying you, so I'm thinking she must have thought she couldn't have done any better. Who do you think she could have done better with, that IAB guy? Come on, Hank, she's a smart woman."
"She is but that's not who I was referring to. We'll talk next week."
"Ok. Have fun at the game. We're all going over to Molly's to watch it, so we'll be looking for you."
"Ok. It'll be fun. Bye."
"Bye."
Hank hung up.
"Talking about me again?"
"You know it."
"You don't get what I see in you? What's that all about? You're a good man, Hank Voight. I love you and you have a big heart."
"I love you too. Do you think you could have done better than me?"
"No but I could have done a lot worse. Trust me on that. I told you I didn't particularly like you when I first met you. At least it didn't take me as long with you as it has with others."
"Both of them?"
"Yeah. They have both had to earn my trust. One defended me when the other one charged me with murder. Also, my partner didn't think I was guilty and neither did my Captain. Although, the Prosecutor had the nerve to say I was a flight risk. These people were threatening to hurt me in prison. Thankfully, it never got to trial. I went undercover in prison once to find out who was raping female inmates and almost ended up getting raped myself. If it wasn't for Fin, I probably would have. This happened before I was really arrested and could have gone to prison. I just had the feeling that if it had gone to trial, I would have been found guilty. These rapists that I work so hard to keep off the streets and in jail manage to get off because their Defense Attorneys convince the jury of their innocence. I don't think I would have survived prison."
"I would have done the same for you that I have done for my other Clients. I was surprised when your partner came to me and said you needed a Defense Attorney."
"I told Cragen that she needed a good Defense Attorney if her innocence was going to be proven."
Hank was starting to become visibly upset. He handed Noah to Olivia and left the room. Erin went after him.
"Hank, what's wrong?"
"I never told her about me being in prison."
"I did."
"Why would you do that?"
"I didn't think you would and she had the right to know. She's your fiancée but also a cop. She would have found out eventually anyway. Cops have ways of finding things out don't forget."
Olivia left Noah with Trevor and Ed and found Hank and Erin.
"Baby, what's wrong? Erin, can you give us a minute please?"
"Sure."
Erin went back into Olivia's office, while Olivia took Hank into one of the other rooms. They sat down and then she took his hands in hers.
"Talk to me."
"I'm sorry I never told you about me being in prison."
"It's ok but I would have rather heard it from you."
"Do you think any less of me?"
"Absolutely not."
"Is this going to cause problems for me adopting Noah?"
"No. I told Trevor and he didn't see a problem with it. He has also seen how you are with Noah and how much he loves you."
"I assume Tucker knows."
"If he does, he hasn't said anything. If you had come for the interview, they probably would have found out."
"I don't know that I could have dealt with Tucker on a regular basis."
"He's getting better but it's hard to trust him sometimes."
"IAB people usually aren't very trustworthy."
"True. Are you ok with us living together or do you want me to get a place of my own?"
"I'm fine with you moving in. I've gotten so used to it that I can't imagine us not living together. Honestly, if we didn't, we'd probably stay together every night anyway."
"True. I guess we'll see how compatible we really are."
"We'll be fine."
"I've already set up the movers. They'll come early next Friday. My SUV will get picked up then too."
"Ok. Are you leaving Friday or Saturday?"
"Probably Friday."
Erin came in with Fin, Rollins, Carisi, Tucker, Trevor and Noah.
"We need to talk to Voight for a minute."
"Ok."
Olivia got up, kissed Hank and took Jesse from Amanda. She took Noah's hand and went back to her office.
"We were thinking about having a party for Liv on Friday afternoon. Do you think you can make it?"
"Probably."
"We have a problem."
"What?"
"Noah could tell her."
"Oops!"
Noah came back in.
"Daddy!"
"Come here."
"Where's Mommy?"
"Jesse sleeping."
"She's been doing that lately. She likes to sleep for everyone but me."
"I'm hungry."
"Ok. We'll go have lunch."
"What time do you think you can get here next Friday? We'd like you to get her out of here for a while."
"Hank, don't worry about our cases. We'll have everything under control."
"She just told me that she has the movers coming early Friday and she's planning to leave Friday after she's done."
"I guess she's dropping off Noah at Lucy's because Lucy told me to drop Jesse off there too."
"I'll try to get a flight Thursday night."
Olivia came back.
I hope you're done talking about me. Erin, I need to ask you something."
"Ok."
"I was wondering if you would be my Maid of Honor."
"You don't even have to ask. You know I will. Who's all in it?"
"Amanda and Melinda are Bridesmaids."
"That's Dr. Warner, right?"
"Yes. Hank was supposed to ask Justin to be his Best Man and Dawson and Olinsky to be Groomsmen."
"I did. They all said yes."
"Noah is the Ring Bearer and Jesse will be the Flower Girl with her mom's help."
"I have a friend, who works in your new Unit. She is beyond excited about you being her new boss. Anyway, Lisa has a 2-year old daughter, Emily."
"Is she your age?"
"She's 10 years older than me. She's a single mom but she wants to settle down and find that special someone. Her fiancé and father of her daughter died in a horrible accident. She was sexually harassed by her Lieutenant and as it turned out, he had done it to others but they were too afraid to say anything because he had threatened their jobs. He was fired and lost his pension. It turned out he did rape a couple female officers. This was before she was with Special Victims. She joined them last year. The Sergeant there appears to not want to do much. None of the Squad likes him. Lisa took the Sergeant's exam recently. The entire Squad has threatened to come work for us if there aren't changes made to the situation soon."
"This Lieutenant sounds like a real nightmare for IAB."
"Definitely."
"I admit that I can be a nightmare for them too but I'd never do that to women. Although that psycho Yates kept saying I did. Nadia meant a lot to our entire Unit."
"Honestly, I don't blame you for going off on him in the Holding Cell. I probably would have too if I was being accused of raping someone by some psychopath."
"I would take that as a compliment coming from Tucker. He doesn't do that very often."
"No, I don't."
"There's no reason Nadia would have said you did that that anyway. She knew you'd do anything to protect her. Just like you'd do anything to protect me. That's why you wanted me to stay away from him during the last case, wasn't it?"
Yeah. I didn't want to risk having him hurt you the way he did her. It's my job to protect you. I would have done the same thing had it been Rollins or Burgess. We've done enough cases with the NYPD that I consider them family too."
"Would you have done the same for me?"
"No. I think I'd let you fend for yourself. What kind of crazy question is that, Benson? Of course I would. Why do you think I tried getting you to stay with Erin? You're the one that pulled the rank thing with me and insisted on going."
"I know I did."
Erin got a phone call, so she left the room. A few minutes later, she came back and she had Detective Anderson with her.
"Liv, this is Detective Lisa Anderson. Lisa, this is Lieutenant Olivia Benson."
"Lieutenant, it's nice to meet you."
"You too."
"This is my daughter, Emily."
"This is my son, Noah. This is Detective Odafin Tutuola, Detective Amanda Rollins and Detective Sonny Carisi. This is Amanda's daughter, Jesse. This is Captain Ed Tucker from IAB and Trevor Langan. Trevor used to be a Defense Attorney but now he pretty much handles adoptions and divorces."
"It's nice to meet all of you."
"You too."
"I should head back."
"Ok."
"So, 6 or 7 o'clock tomorrow for dinner?"
"Fine with me."
"Me too."
Tucker left and headed back to his office.
"I really wanted to meet you before you started. I've heard a lot about you from Erin."
"She was just telling me about you."
Noah was looking at Emily and smiling.
"Liv, Little Man is flirting."
Emily was peeking over Lisa's shoulder at both Noah and Trevor.
"So is she."
"She is a little flirt. Sergeant Voight, good to see you."
"You too. Babe, someone is hungry."
"Ok. McDonald's?"
"Yeah!"
"So, 9 o'clock tomorrow morning, Trevor?"
Olivia got no answer from Trevor, who was staring at Lisa.
"Langan!"
"I'm sorry. What?"
"I asked you if we were meeting you at 9 o'clock tomorrow morning."
"Yes."
"Ok."
"I should go."
"Ok. We'll see you in the morning."
"Ok."
Trevor left.
"We should go too. It was nice meeting all of you. I look forward to working with you, Lieutenant."
"You too."
Lisa and Emily left and ended up riding in the elevator with Trevor. He ended up asking her out to dinner and she accepted. He also had tickets to the hockey game that night. Olivia, Hank, Erin, Amanda and the kids left to go to McDonald's. Hank went to order the food, while everyone else went to find a table. Once Hank got the food, he joined them at the table.
"So, was that the guy that kissed you the other night?"
"Yep."
"He's hot. You chose Hank over him because why?"
"Erin!"
"What? I'm just asking a question."
"It didn't take Hank a decade to earn my trust. Langan is pretty nice looking but can be very arrogant sometimes and just between you and me, Erin, he's not a bad kisser."
"Are you saying I am?"
"No. Not at all. I have no complaints."
"Wait, Liv, Langan kissed you?"
"Yep."
"When was this?"
"A couple nights ago. He told me he's been in love with me for a while and wanted more. I showed him my left hand and told him I was completely devoted to my fiancé. I did say that if he had told me how he felt several months ago, I may have given in to him."
"I think I would have been ok with you being with Langan instead of me. I'm not so sure about Tucker."
"It never would have happened between me and Tucker. He's not my type anyway and not someone I could see myself with long-term. I also couldn't really see him as a father figure to Noah."
"Does Noah like either of them?"
"He likes Trevor. He knows Trevor helped us become a family. Of course, Amaro helped with that too, since he was the one that killed Johnny D, Noah's real father."
"You miss Amaro a lot, don't you?"
"Sometimes."
"I do too sometimes but his absence has really helped me to see another side of Carisi."
"I didn't like Nick when I first met him either. Both male partners I had had anger issues. Of course, so does the latest man in my life."
"You've been a good influence on him. He's at least trying a little harder to behave."
"I didn't even have to ask him this time. Of course, Hank had nothing to do with what happened to Yates."
"I knew I had to end Yates' life for Nadia."
"I'm proud of you, Kid, even though you disobeyed orders. I wanted you at the District for a reason. He'd never get to you there. I wanted both of you where it was safe. I don't want anything to happen to either of you. I meant what I said before, Rollins."
"Thanks, Sergeant. I really appreciate that."
Olivia's phone rang, so she answered it and hung up after she was done.
"Rollins, we need to go. We have a case. It's a child porn case."
"Ok."
"Baby, I'll call you if I have to work later. If I do, then take Erin to the game."
"You sure about that?"
"Yes. There's no sense in wasting the ticket."
"Ok. Be careful."
"I will. I love you."
"I love you too."
"Are Fin and Carisi picking us up?"
"They are."
Olivia kissed Hank and Noah and Amanda kissed Jesse. They went outside as Fin and Carisi pulled up. After Hank, Erin and Noah were done, they headed back to Olivia's to put the kids down for their naps. A few hours later, Olivia let Hank know that they would be working on the case for a while as it involved someone from the NYPD, so she told him to take Erin to the game. The case even required Tucker to get involved. Trevor took Lisa out to dinner without Emily, who stayed with Lisa's aunt, and then they went to the hockey game. Their seats happened to be next to where Hank and Erin were.
"Hey."
"Hey, Lisa."
"Where's Olivia?"
"Working. It's a child porn case that involves someone from the NYPD and Tucker had to get involved."
"So, Lisa, where's Emily?"
"With my aunt and uncle."
"It's good that you have family here."
"Yeah, it is. Trevor asked me out in the elevator. I've been ready to start dating but my mom thinks I should wait. It's been 3 years since Eric died. He cheated on me, so I was going to call off the engagement anyway."
"If Jay ever cheated on me, he'd have to deal with the wrath of Hank Voight."
"I don't know how you can date your partner."
"Sometimes I don't either. Hank went from not allowing us to date because we were partners to telling us not to let our personal lives interfere with our jobs. Boy, has being in love mellowed you out!"
"I should have told her how I felt sooner."
"She chose you anyway. I don't think there was ever any doubt in her mind."
"I think there was in mine though."
"The fact that you were even interested at all is a bit of a miracle. Olinsky said that if you weren't in love with her and he wasn't still married, he'd go after her."
"Yeah right."
"That's what I said."
"She told me last night that she's not used to having 3 men in love with her at once."
"Who is this?"
"Lieutenant Benson."
"She has 3 men in love with her?"
"Yep."
"Who besides Sergeant Voight?"
"Trevor and Captain Tucker."
"Did you ever date her?"
"No. I was her lawyer on a couple occasions though."
"I told her that if it wasn't me, I'd rather have it be you."
"You seem a lot better for her than Tucker. If I had known she was in a relationship, I wouldn't have done what I did. She drives me crazy sometimes and has for over a decade."
"I know how that goes. She threatened to arrest me when we first met."
"How many other serious relationships have you been in?"
"Just one and I was married to her for over 20 years. We have one son and now a grandson, who will unfortunately never know her."
"I take it she died."
"Yes. She had cancer. Justin and I both took her death pretty hard. I swore I wasn't going to be put through that again and then I met Olivia. What's your story?"
"I met this girl in college and we dated for 4 years plus the entire time I was in Law School. We were pretty serious and I was just getting the nerve to propose. We had gone to my parents' for the weekend and I ended up catching her in bed with my brother. My parents know that if they want me to attend family functions, my brother can't be there."
"Did he marry her?"
"Yep. I won't forgive her for doing what she did to me. She was pregnant when they got married and she tried telling me the baby was mine. I refused to take a paternity test because the baby could have just as easily been my brother's. She probably just wanted money. My dad is a doctor and my mom is a lawyer. My mom agreed with me about not wanting to take the paternity test. My brother was in college but got kicked out. He doesn't care about anyone or anything but himself and never has. His wife is supporting him and the kids but they live in the guest house on my parents' estate. Meanwhile, I graduated at the top of my class from Yale for both undergrad and Law School, I'm a Senior Partner in my Law Firm and I live in a condo on the Upper East Side of Manhattan. My parents are getting tired of supporting the other one, since they live there basically for free. They have 4 kids the last I heard. I do want a family of my own."
The 4 of them talked until the game started. Trevor had asked Lisa out again and she agreed. He also told Hank that he wanted to take him and Olivia out to dinner before the end of the weekend. Olivia's case ended with Deputy Commissioner Abraham being arrested and charged with child pornography. Olivia was sound asleep on the sofa by the time Hank and Erin got back to her apartment. Hank carried her to her bedroom, so Erin had somewhere to sleep. The next morning, Hank, Olivia and Noah met Trevor at the Courthouse to meet with Judge Linden. After work, Tucker took them out for dinner. Saturday night, they went out with Trevor and Lisa, while Erin watched the kids. Trevor had taken Lisa out every night since they met and he even spent time with Emily. On Sunday, Olivia and Noah took Hank and Erin to the airport and said their goodbyes. The next time Hank and Olivia would see each other would be next week for her party and then they would officially be in the same city full-time.
