When Olivia received her ring, she thought it was a joke. She didn't believe there was someone out there who could be her soulmate. Her mother never did, so why would she? Olivia said, "It is a beautiful ring. I will wear it, although it will be useless." A few years later, Olivia starts her first day at SVU. She walked into the captain's office. She said, "Captain Cragen?"

The man said, "That's me."

She said, "Olivia Benson." Cragen and Olivia shook hands. Cragen said, "Glad to have you here. Your profile here says you requested this unit. Why is that?"

Olivia said, "I chose this unit because I wanted to help victims of sexual assault."

Cragen said, "I notice here that your father isn't listed."

Olivia said, "Before you ask, I left it blank because I don't know who he is. All I know is he was the man who raped my mother."

Cragen said, "Okay. You know that you don't have to tell anyone. That is your business. But, I will suggest telling your new partner."

Olivia said, "I know. Can't wait to meet them." At that moment, Olivia's ring began to buzz. Olivia said, "What does it mean when your ring begins buzzing?"

Cragen said, "Oh boy. That means your soulmate is near." It was that moment when someone walked into the office. He said, "Cragen, you wanted to see me?"

Cragen said, "Yes. I wanted you to meet your new partner. Olivia Benson, Elliot Stabler." As Olivia rose to shake Elliot's hand, it happened. The rings magnetized, giving off a red hue where they connected. Elliot said, "This is a surprise. Meet my new partner and my soulmate in one day."

Olivia said, "I bet."

Cragen said, "I have a phone call to make. Sit down and get comfortable. I have a feeling this will take a while." Olivia and Elliot sat down to the best of their ability. Cragen dialed a number and puts the phone to his ear. He said, "Tucker. It's Cragen. The new detective you sent over. Well, I am partnering her up with Stabler. However, there is a problem. Let's just say they are soulmates. Yes they are. Yes the rings are connected. I'll tell them. Bye."

Elliot said, "What did he have to say?"

Cragen said, "He told me that there is nothing IAB or 1PP can do to help you two. I take it you all heard about the story about what happens next."

Olivia said, "I haven't heard it."

Elliot said, "Let's just say the only way these rings can be demagnetized is through a true love's kiss. Which in my head is marriage."

Olivia said, "So, we have to get married or we are stuck like this."

Cragen said, "Yes. I suggest you two take off to discuss this further."

Olivia said, "Okay. Let's go, partner."

Elliot said, "What about my stuff?"

Cragen said, "Either risk seeing you two like this or leave it here. I could always grab it and give it to you before you leave."

Elliot said, "I will get it myself. Let's go, partner." Elliot and Olivia left the office and walked to his desk. Olivia said, "Let's go, Elliot. Maybe get some lunch."

Elliot said, "Sounds like a plan. Did you drive here?"

Olivia said, "Nope. Thank God. That would suck if I did."

Elliot said, "It really would. I didn't drive either."

Olivia said, "Cab it is. Where to?"

Elliot said, "Doesn't matter to me none. Everyone will see us anyway."

Olivia looked at their hands and said, "You got a point. What a day. My first day on the job and I am already being sent home."

Elliot laughed and said, "Yeah. Can I ask you something?"

Olivia said, "Yeah. Not like I am going to run away."

Elliot said, "Why did you choose this unit?"

Olivia said, "I requested this unit for personal reasons. I have a copy of my file if you want to look at it."

Elliot said, "Yeah, but later. Right now I am hungry."

Olivia said, "Let's get food and we can get to know each other." Elliot and Olivia got on the elevator and went to the street to hail a cab. Olivia said, "Elliot, just letting you know, I don't know how to love."

Elliot said, "Why?"

Olivia said, "Well, my mother treated me like shit growing up. You see, she was raped by some guy on the college campus she worked at. She had me nine months later. She made it known many times that she thought all men were evil and they should burn in hell. What hurt the most was the fact that she said to my face 'how could she love someone made from a monster.' That is why I chose to work at SVU. To give victims the peace they need to move on. My mom never found her soulmate because she chose not to seek them out. I am not afraid of being hurt because she already did that herself. So, when you look in my file, you will see there is no father listed. The only thing I know about the man is he was the one who raped my mother."

Elliot said, "Does Cragen know?"

Olivia said, "He was the one who told me to tell you. I mean, you are my partner. I already know I can't choose the victim."

Elliot said, "Yeah. I can relate to a shitty childhood. My father was a drunken, cheating bastard. My mother is bipolar. So, my household was hectic. The only good thing from my past was when I enlisted in the marines. I became a cop, mostly to follow in my father's footsteps, but I wanted to make a difference. I made a difference alright." Elliot and Olivia ended up walking to a restaurant instead of hailing a cab. When they sat down, they continued talking. Olivia said, "Thanks for sharing, El."

Elliot said, "I like that. El. To the point. This is going to be the start of a wonderful partnership."

Olivia said, "Per il meglio o il peggio. (For better or worse.)"

Elliot said, "Yeah. You know, it fascinates me when an attractive woman like yourself speaks in another language."

Olivia said, "I actually speak Italian, Hungarian, Spanish, and French."

Elliot said, "I bet when you speak French, all the guys want to be your friend."

Olivia said, "Yeah, but they don't get past first base. Well, not all of them anyway."

Elliot said, "You aren't a virgin are you?"

Olivia said, "God no. I lost that when I was 16. Not proud of it, but it is what it is."

Elliot said, "I'm not a virgin either. Just random hook-ups whenever the mood hits."

Olivia said, "Take my advice. Now that we are linked, I don't do threesomes."

Elliot said, "Are you implying that I would get the urge and do it with some random chick? No way. If I did get the urge, well…"

Olivia said, "Yeah. I gotcha. We are linked so it would be natural to let nature take its course."

Elliot said, "What happened with your first?"

Olivia said, "Let's just say I ended up engaged to the guy and my mother got mad. He was arrested a couple days later. He was charged with statutory rape. He was 21 and I was 16."

Elliot said, "Oh man. Was he good at least?"

Olivia said, "Fuck no. I had to finish the job myself. Actually, with every man I was with, I had to finish the job myself."

Elliot said, "Didn't wait for you?"

Olivia said, "Never."

Elliot said, "The difference with me will be I make sure you are taken care of before I am."

Olivia said, "Can't wait. But, for now, let's eat and go somewhere."

Elliot said, "I have an apartment not too far from here. What do you say?"

Olivia said, "Okay." Olivia and Elliot finished their lunches, eating off each other's plates. They walked to Elliot's place. Olivia said, "I live this way myself."

Elliot said, "It would be interesting if we were neighbors."

Olivia said, "It would be…" Elliot and Olivia arrived at the apartment building. Olivia said, "Apartment 4-E."

Elliot said, "4-D."

Olivia said, "How come we never met before now?"

Elliot said, "I don't know, but I am glad we met now."

Olivia said, "Me too." Olivia's phone went off and she picked it up. "Hi mom. Good. Home right now. Long story. Yes I did. No mother I am not. Eventually yes. Love you too. Bye."

Elliot said, "What did she want?"

Olivia said, "She wanted to check in. She knew it was my first day. I told her I was home. She figured out I found my soulmate. She told me I better not fuck him right away. I told her it wasn't the case, but eventually it will happen."

Elliot said, "I'd say it will happen soon rather than later."

Olivia said, "Are you turned on right now?"

Elliot intentionally brought their hands down to his crotch and said, "You tell me."

Olivia said, "I'd say that is a yes. Why don't we go inside and get comfortable? Maybe, figure out each other's do's and don't in the bedroom."

Elliot said, "I can tell you right now that anal is out of the question. I am down for anything, but not that."

Olivia said, "Anal isn't my thing either." Elliot opened the door to his apartment and they went inside. When Elliot closed the door, he pinned Olivia against it. Olivia said, "Hi there."

Elliot said, "You are by far the most beautiful woman I have ever seen in my life."

Olivia said, "You are just saying that because you want to get in my pants. The others said that too."

Elliot said, "Well, I mean it. You are beautiful, inside and out."

Olivia said, "Is it too soon to tell you I love you?"

Elliot said, "Not really. I love you too." Elliot and Olivia kissed and began to wander through the living room into the bedroom, taking off clothes along the way. When they got to the bedroom, only their top halves were covered. Elliot said, "You know, I would love to see your breasts, but the rings are making that hard."

Olivia said, "I mean, my shirt is liftable and I am wearing a strapless bra." Elliot reached down to lift Olivia's shirt. When her bra came into view, Olivia reached behind her to unhook the bra. Elliot began to suck on Olivia's breasts and nipples. Olivia said, "Boy, does that feel good."

Elliot said, "It is good, but not as good as what I am going to make you feel when I eat you out." Elliot laid Olivia on the bed and lowered himself to her pussy. The moment Elliot's mouth made contact with her clit, Olivia began to moan and writhe underneath his mouth. Olivia said, "Right there, El." Elliot continued his tongue fucking until Olivia cried out and came in his mouth. Olivia said, "That was amazing."

Elliot said, "I am not done with you yet." Elliot began to reach over to get a condom from his nightstand, but Olivia's hand stopped him. Elliot said, "Are you sure?"

Olivia said, "Yes. I am sure."

Elliot said, "If you aren't ready for a baby, I could pull out."

Olivia said, "There is a slight chance that it won't work to prevent pregnancy. Besides, a baby with my soulmate sounds pretty good."

Elliot said, "So, I can leave it in."

Olivia said, "Yes you can leave it in." Elliot entered Olivia slowly, but smoothly, in one thrust. Olivia never had anything that big inside of her. Not even her biggest dildo could compare to this. Olivia said, "You are by far the biggest I've ever had."

Elliot said, "And no other dick will be allowed." Elliot starts thrusting inside Olivia, gentle at first. Olivia said, "Faster, El. Fuck me." Elliot didn't need to be told twice. His thrusts became rougher and harder. Elliot said, "I am going to cum."

Olivia said, "Me too." They climaxed together and collapsed on the bed. Elliot said, "That was the best sex I've ever had."

Olivia said, "Me too. And to think this would have happened sooner if we met sooner."

Elliot said, "I know right. I've been living next door to my soulmate for years and I never knew."

Olivia said, "I lived here for about 7 years."

Elliot said, "8 years for me."

Olivia said, "It doesn't matter now. We found each other and will never part."

Elliot said, "Per il meglio o il peggio. (For better or worse.)"

Olivia said, "Per ricchi o poveri. (For rich or poor.) "

Elliot said, "Nella malattia e nella salute. (In sickness and in health.)"

Olivia said, "Amare e amare. (To love and to cherish.)"

Both said, "Finché morte non ci separi. (Til Death do us part.)" It was then that the rings demagnetized and turned into wedding rings. Olivia said, "Well, that was unexpected."

Elliot said, "I can't believe it. I'm married and it didn't cost a dime."

Olivia said, "Yeah. Not a single dime. We are married."

Elliot said, "Yes we are. Let's get that shirt off so I can gaze upon my naked wife."

Olivia said, "And I can look upon my naked husband." The shirts came off and the fireworks came back. A few hours later, and multiple positions, Elliot and Olivia got dressed and went to her place to start packing. A few weeks later, all of Olivia's stuff was moved into either Elliot's place or a storage unit. Working together was easier than expected, considering that they can't stop them from working together as long as they keep their private affairs to themselves. Two months after they met, Olivia began vomiting. Not taking any chances, she went to see her OB/GYN. Olivia didn't want to jinx it, calling it before confirming it. Olivia turned out to be right. She was 8 weeks pregnant. Olivia told Elliot the news while at the precinct. Elliot just started crying and said, "I can't believe it. I'm going to be a dad."

Olivia said, "Yes you are."

Elliot said, "I love you Mrs. Stabler."

Olivia said, "I love you too Mr. Stabler." Elliot and Olivia kissed briefly before getting back to work. A month later, Olivia and Elliot announced the pregnancy to everyone at work. Of course, Olivia was put on desk duty until she went on maternity leave. Elliot puts her mind at ease with all the food she wants. Six months later, they had a healthy baby girl named Maria Rosa and a healthy baby boy named Christopher Lee. Just as they were adjusting to life with the twins, Olivia and Elliot found themselves expecting again. This time, with a baby boy named Elliot Joseph Jr, Eli for short. Olivia said, "How did we get so lucky?"

Elliot said, "I don't know, but I am happy with our little family."

Olivia said, "Hopefully we can even it out with another girl."

Elliot said, "Only one way to find out." Elliot and Olivia did have one more girl named Mariska Magdolna. Elliot, Olivia, and their 4 children lived happily ever after.
