"Yes Liv, you're pregnant." He was clearly worried. "Do you really not remember?"

"No, who… who am I dating? Did I get married?" she said, still crying.

"None of them… You wanted to be a mom and... "

There was a knock on the door.

"Dad, I need some stuff to go to college college, can I borrow your car?" Maureen asked as she looked at Olivia. "Liv, you're awake! I've missed you! How are you and my little brother or sister? I know you don't want the baby to be a Stabler, but I can't help it. I like the idea. I won't babysit this baby, though. Stablers have an attitude, and Dad said you do as well. I can't handle a little monster." Maureen smirked. "I need to go." She took her dad's car keys. "Thanks, Dad. See you later Liv."

Maureen left the bedroom and the doctor came in.

"Miss Benson, I heard about you. We are happy that you're awake! How are you?"

"Confused, dizzy, my head hurts, and my tummy is big."

"Tell me your name."

"You can skip it. I just don't remember being pregnant."

"Let's do some tests and see how you are. And the memory will return in time. Don't worry."


"How did the tests go, Liv?"

"Everything is okay with the baby and me." She stared at the floor and asked, "How come you're my baby's father?"

"You wanted a baby and I helped you. The end."

"How did I pay for it?"

"You, um- you didn't pay anything, Liv."

"Good, I couldn't be happy if I was pregnant and poor at once. Who paid for me? I'm still confused."

"You didn't pay because it was… how can I say this? You got pregnant naturally."

"Huh?" She lifted her eyes as she began to understand. "We had sex?"

"We did." He couldn't help but smile. "We so did."

"El, my head hurts with too much information, but where was Kathy in it? Did she allow it?"

"She doesn't know. And if you hadn't taken that bullet, she should never know… but I'm glad things went like they did." He took her hand. "Liv, she left me five months ago."

"I'm sorry."

"Please don't be sorry. If she didn't do that, I would have kept my feelings to myself."

He cupped Olivia's face, looked into her eyes, then at her mouth. "Liv, I'm in love with you." He kissed her lips softly.

She closed her eyes, a tear ran her cheek.

"El, I'm sorry. I'm so sorry…"

"What are you sorry for? What's wrong? Did I hurt you?"

"No, but I can't remember anything, and it seems like we were doing well. I'm sorry… I… El, I'm not feeling well…"

"Liv, LIV, OLIVIA!"

She passed out.
