Elliot looked up from his paperwork to check the time for what felt like the third time that minute. 9:02. Where the hell is she? She's never later than 8:00—and that's on a bad day. He stretched his arms over his head. He didn't know why he was so concerned about the fact she was a little late. She was just his partner. Yeah, my partner with the perfect hair, smile, laugh, body…

Cragen chose that moment to walk out, interrupting Eliot's thoughts.

"All right gang," he addressed to Elliot, Munch and Fin. "We have a new case that should be fairly strait forward. Sixteen year old Kate claims to have had consensual sex with twenty year old boyfriend Tim, but Kate's mother, Michelle, wants to charge him with statutory rape. Stabler, I want you and…"Cragen broke off suddenly, looking around.

"Where the hell is Benson?" he asked.

"Uhh, not sure Cap," Elliot replied. "Maybe her alarm didn't go off?" he suggested.

"Wherever she is, I want you to go find her and drag your asses down to Mercy to interview Kate, Tim, and Michelle for a more in depth interview." Cragen turned around and headed toward his office.

"What's eating him?" Fin wondered out loud.

"I don't know, and I don't think I want to find out for sure," replied Munch.

Elliot grinned. He stood up to go get his jacket when he heard the phone on his desk begin to ring.

He looked at the caller ID, and instantly recognized it as Olivia's cell phone number. He grabbed the handle and began to speak rapidly. "Liv, I have no clue why you're late, but you had better have a good god damn reason 'because Crag—" he was cut off by a male voice.

"Is this Elliot Stabler?"

"Umm, yeah, who the hell is this?" he asked angrily. When the hell did Olivia get a boyfriend?

"I'm sorry sir, my name is Mike McGee, and I'm a nurse with Mercy General Hospital. There was a woman jogging in the corner of East 20th street and 3rd Avenue when she was struck by a car. Her cell phone has you listed as an emergency contact…"

Elliot stopped listening. Only two words floated in his mind. Olivia, hospital. Hospital, Olivia. He shook his head and spoke back "I- I'll be there soon," and hung up the phone, not caring whether the nurse was done talking or not.

He roughly grabbed his coat and tried to (but failed) to put it on with his shaky hands.

"What's up Stabler?" asked Munch after glancing at Elliot.

"Yeah, you look like you've tasted Munch's coffee for the first time." Fin halfheartedly joked.

Elliot looked at the guys standing around him. While still struggling to put on his coat, he replied tonelessly, "Olivia's in the hospital, Mercy Hospital. She was hit by a car."

With that, Munch, Fin, and Elliot all went to pull Cragen form his desk and all left for the hospital together to see her.
