Olivia cried in Elliot's arms as everyone kept quiet. Mark was still on the ground feeling numb. How did they let this happen? They didn't deserve this. Their youngest child didn't deserve this.

Fin and Munch were quiet also and just looking at the ground. They never wanted this feeling of what Olivia and Mark were feeling. It was the ultimate breakdown.

Cragen was just sitting in the back not sure what to say at all. Mark and Olivia were like his own children. He hated to see them break down. Especially since they were the strongest couple he knew. They were each other's good and bad. If one broke down the other lifted them up. Now both of them were down.

Olivia slowly let go of her partner and got her shirt from the desk. She was ordered to take the shirt off and she did in hope to get her daughter back.

Mark slowly looked up at her "I'm sorry" he whispered.

Olivia said nothing and pulled her shirt on. She didn't know what to say to him. Half of her wanted to rip his guts out and the other half blamed herself.

Mark quickly got off the floor and pulled his clothes on. Everyone watched him as he checked his gun for bullets and was out the door not even buttoning his shirt up.

Olivia looked at Elliot and then got her gun as well. She quickly followed her husband.

Elliot ran out knowing the two would kill the person without second thought if they found him. Fin and Munch jumped off their seats and followed.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Brad sat against the wall in the corner with his arm bleeding. Zane had his gun on the man and Lilly was still in the other corner shaking from fear.

Zane cocked the hammer of his gun. "Put it down"

Gerard pointed his gun at the younger man in the room. "Don't be stupid boy. I can kill all of you"

Zane glanced at Brad still bleeding and Lilly was trying to silence her cries. "The second that bullet hits my flesh I'm pulling this trigger and taking you with me."

"I have pretty good aiming" Gerard smiled a little "I could take Lilly first."

"They are on their way. You're not getting out of this. Kidnapping. Attempted murder. You shot a federal agent" he glanced at Brad holding his bleeding arm. "Think about it."

"Shoot him!" Brad yelled as he groaned from the pain. "Shoot him Zane!"

Gerard chuckled a little "Shoot me!" he yelled mockingly.

Zane gripped the gun more. He never actually killed anyone. "Let Lilly go"

"Oh no" Gerard shook his head "That's my barraging chip."

"Use me. I'm Mark's son" Zane negotiated. "C'mon let her go, let Brad leave and you can use me"

Gerard thought for a second "Brad can go. I don't need him. Go ahead Brad"

Brad looked at Zane and then Gerard "No."

"Go!" Zane yelled at him. "Get out of here!"

Brad pressed his wound more. "No. Let Lilly leave. You have Mark's son and me. I'm a federal agent. I can open doors for you"

Gerard smiled and aimed his gun at Lilly. She let out another cry.

Zane quickly pushed the gun away and tackled him. He didn't realize that a window was right behind him. Gerard broke the glass with his back and both flew out.

Brad quickly jumped up seeing Zane fell out the eight-story window with Gerard.

Flashback

Zane hung up the phone as him and Brad walked around the building. Jenny was in the 16th precinct main desk trying to explain what was going on so they could get back up.

"That was James" Zane answered "Elliot texted him and said the perp was from outside. Aiming with sniper, probably with a laser if they know about it."

Brad nodded "The windows are on the east side so its has to be from that building across the street." He quickly walked to the other side of where they were. Zane quickly followed.

They stopped on the street in between the precinct and a building. Brad looked up where he knew the SVU windows were. He spent so much time there with Casey that he knew everything about that squad room. He looked back and fort at the buildings. "It can't be lower level cause he has a view of them, upper level is too high and he can't see them."

Zane quickly nodded realizing what he was talking about. Both quickly went into the building and run up the stairs to the floor that was parallel with the SVU windows.

They quietly walked down the hall and listened by each door for anything. They kept walking down the hall trying to find the door that was at least suspicious.

Brad quietly walked to a door and stopped.

"Bad choice Mark" He heard from inside a room.

Brad motioned to the door to Zane and quickly kicked it in.

The man jumped and pulled the trigger from the surprise. Accidentally missing his target and getting the desk across the street.

Gerard still had his earpiece in "You refused my order! Lilly has to die!"

Gerard grabbed his 9 mm by his sniper and aimed it behind him at whoever kicked his door in. Lilly let out a scream seeing Brad there and the gun pointed at him. He pulled the trigger and threw his phone against the wall.

Brad slammed into the wall as the bullet hit his forearm. He slid down and rested his head back from the pain. He slowly nodded at Lilly to assure her not to be scared.

Zane quickly pulled his gun out and ran into the apartment. He saw Brad was hurt and Lilly was in the corner. A gun was aiming at his chest. He raised his own gun up and held it steady on the man's heart.

End Flashback

Mark and Olivia ran out of the precinct with their guns. Mark ran across the street and ignored the screeching cars and horns. His shirt was still open and he didn't care.

He ran into the building that was on the east side knowing their perp had to be there. Olivia ran in after him and then they heard a loud noise like a window breaking.

"Holy fucking shit!" They stopped on the stairs and exchanged looks. It sounded like Zane's voice.

They ran out of the building and looked up. Zane was hanging from the window holding himself up with one hand and Gerard was holding onto his leg.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Brad grabbed Zane's arm with his one arm that wasn't injured. "Don't let go"

Zane looked up at him "You think?" He tried to pull himself up but couldn't since Gerard was still holding his leg. "Let go you stupid son of a bitch!"

Gerard tried to pull himself up but Zane's baggy jeans slowly slid.

Zane groaned and kicked his black Converse off since they were untied. He quickly unbuckled his belt and jeans so they were looser. "Brad I'm slipping"

"I got you" Brad kept holding his arm so he wouldn't slip. "C'mon man"

Mark and Olivia ran into the apartment and Olivia quickly went to Lilly and Mark went to help Brad.

Zane's jeans slid off and Gerard fell with them. His body slammed on the car parked below and he was dead immediately.

Mark and Brad pulled Zane up and all three fell down on the ground. Brad was still bleeding and Zane only in his boxers and a t-shirt. Both were too exhausted to even move.

Mark quickly got up and went over to Lilly and Olivia.

Olivia held Lilly as she cried on her chest. "Sssh" She kissed her on the head. "You're safe now"

Lilly spotted Mark and extended her arms to him "Daddy"

Mark took her and held her "Are you hurt honey?"

"No" She whispered as she hugged him.

Olivia stroked her hair and rested her head on Mark's shoulder glad all of them were safe now.

Brad looked over at Zane and then his boxers that had pictures of aliens on them. "Nice boxers"

"Shut up" Zane groaned as he sat up "I liked those shoes."

"I liked my arm"

Zane got up and helped Brad up. "Mark I'm taking him to the hospital"

Mark just nodded as he kept holding Lilly. He wasn't able to let go again. He playfully grabbed Olivia by the shirt and pulled her into the hug.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Brad walked into the apartment with his arm wrapped up and a strap holding it up.

Casey and Ben were sitting at the kitchen table eating since it was seven in the morning.

"What happened?" Casey asked looking at his arm.

"I got shot," He answered as he sat down next to Ben.

Ben looked up at him with a huge smile "Cool! Can I see?"

"No" Brad answered as he gave him a kiss. "You can see the scar when it heals though"

"Aww that's no fun." The little boy rolled his eyes. "I already have a scar" He picked his leg up and placed it on Brad's lap. He pulled his pants up and showed Brad a scar on his knee. "See"

Brad kissed his knee and then pulled his pant leg down. "How did that happen?"

"I fell at recess." He answered as he ate his cereal again. "Mommy right it was a big cut?"

Casey smirked "It was a small scratch"

Ben gave her a mean look and smiled when Casey returned the same look.

Brad got up and went into the bedroom to change his clothes. Casey got up and followed. She closed the door behind her "You find Lilly?"

"Yea" He answered as he unzipped his jeans. He tried to pull them off but it was hard with one arm. "Help me"

Casey walked over and helped him get undressed. She slowly took his shirt off and grabbed a new t-shirt. She took the strap off. "Lift up your arms" He did. Casey rolled her eyes since he was taller then her and this just made it harder. "Sit on the bed"

"I'm not your puppy Casey" He sat down on the bed.

"Shut up I'm helping you" She gently pulled the shirt over his arms. She pulled it down and then got another pair of jeans that didn't have blood on them. She pulled it up his legs. "Stand up"

He stood up. "You're enjoying this aren't you?"

She smirked. "Yea right"

"C'mon stick around we can play patient and nurse. It'll be fun." He gave her a kiss as she buttoned his jeans.

"I have to take Ben to school and then work." She zipped his jeans up and slapped his butt. "You can sleep and take pain relievers. That's as close as you will get to being a patient in this house."

"Ouch. Well that's cold" Brad rolled his eyes and put his strap across his shoulder again. "Don't try to soothe your hurt husband." He laid down on the bed and took a deep breath being very tired.

Casey smiled and sat down by him "I don't need to baby you. You're mom does that enough"

"Well your just loving me today aren't you?" He smiled at her since they always flirted in a way of teasing each other.

"Oh yea" She gave him a kiss and got up "I'll call you later ok? I have court until one but I'll call you during lunch or something"

"Ok" he nodded and pulled her down by her shirt to kiss her.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Mark and Olivia came into the house with Lilly in Mark's arms. James was asleep on the couch. Jenny was in the kitchen with the twins trying to explain homework to them. Zane was also in the kitchen just adding things to annoy Jenny.

"Jenny that is so stupid!" Mike yelled "Stupid numbers!"

Mark and Olivia came into the kitchen knowing how much the twins hated math.

Zane smirked a little "Jenny invented Math"

Jenny shot him a look but then turned to her parents. She smiled at Lilly and took her "Hey honey, how are you?"

"Good" She smiled and hugged her.

Mike and Matt just looked at everyone not sure where their little sister was since nobody wanted to tell them.

James came into the kitchen looking sleepy since the yelling woke him up "You two shut up, you're so loud" He rubbed his eyes and then saw Lilly "Hey kid"

"Hi" Lilly grinned at her big brother she adored. "Miss me?"

"No" The twins teased in unison.

James shot them a look "If A is 2 and B is 1 what is A plus B?" The boys got quiet and looked at their addition homework. "That's what I thought"

Zane rolled his eyes since he was always on the side of the twins cause James always took Lilly's side. "James you want a beer?"

Jenny looked at Zane "Zane want some shoes or Jeans Mr. Alien boxers?"

Mark shook his head since the older siblings loved to offend each other. "Jen can you take the twins to school?" She nodded "Lilly is going to sleep and Zane you need to go down to SVU to give a formal statement." Zane just nodded and took the homework from the twins and filled it out for them so no one saw him.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Olivia laid in bed just staring at the ceiling. Why was their life so damn dramatic? She was in sweats since she wanted to sleep so badly. She was exhausted. She knew it was morning but she wanted sleep. Needed it.

Mark came into the room and closed the door behind him. He was in his boxers and a t-shirt. He lay down by Olivia and turned to the side to watch her.

Olivia glanced at him and then locked eyes with him seeing he was looking at her. "What?"

He lifted her shirt up a little and traced around her belly button shyly. Olivia just looked at him since he used to do that when they were going out. It was more of a trust thing they had. Mark called her bellybutton her access of life and she would let him touch her stomach only if she would let him be in her life because she trusted him enough.

Olivia kept looking at him as he kept doing it. "What's wrong?"

He shrugged a little "I hate myself"

"What?" She turned to look at him "What are you talking about?"

He rested his hand on her hip "Lilly almost died because of me. I'm a horrible father"

"Honey" Olivia took his hand and wrapped it around her. She hugged him "Where is this coming from?"

"What I did today. I wasn't thinking. I was being selfish. I don't like being selfish." He rested his head on her shoulder. "I just…I…never mind"

"What is it?"

"It scares me how afraid I am of losing you. I mean if I lost you I would have nothing. I know I got the kids but I mean it's you. I'm so in love with you that I'm scared"

Olivia smirked a little "Mark that's a good thing."

"Yea but you're the only person that makes sense to me. I have nobody now and I was being selfish today by not letting you go. Lilly almost died because of me"

"Mark" She took his face in her hands and rested her forehead on his "You're a wonderful father and an amazing husband. There isn't anybody else I would have wanted stripping in that squad room next to me then you," She teased to make him smile.

He did a little. He hugged her and pulled her on top of him. "I like it when you wear sweats."

She smiled and rested her head on his chest "Why?"

"You look human and not like you save the world everyday even if that's what you do." He gave her a kiss on the head "Thanks."

"For what? Saving the world or wearing sweats?"

"Both. Also for saving me."

Olivia looked up at him and rested her chin on his chest "What am I saving Mr. FBI from?"

"From Mr. FBI" He answered with a smirk "I would be so lost without you"

"Same here" She snuggled into his arms more. "Lilly sleeping?"

"Yea. I put her to bed, she should be sleeping." Mark flipped so he was on top. "Want to kiss me?"

"Eh" Olivia teased.

"Shut up" He pressed his lips to hers as she wrapped her arms around his neck. Mark slowly rubbed his leg against her middle as they made out. This caused a small moan from Olivia.

She softly broke the kiss "Don't" She whispered.

"Don't what?" He whispered back as he gently took her leg and wrapped it around his. "Seduce you?" He gently started to kiss her again. He softly went down to her neck.

Olivia bit her lip and closed her eyes as she rested her palm on the back of his neck. She knew he was just looking to get away from everything that happened today since he didn't want to discuss it. She was just fine giving him that release.

His hand went under her shirt and cupped her breast. Olivia knew this side of her husband. He didn't want to make love. He wanted to fuck. Nothing romantic, he just wanted sex. She was fine with that when he had too much on his mind and couldn't handle it. This case qualified for that.

Olivia knew that he wasn't into anything slow when he wanted this kind of ecstasy. He liked going fast and rough but Olivia didn't like it rough so he didn't push his luck. She pushed her sweats down to meet his fast moving need.

He got off her and locked the door. He pulled his shirt off and then closed all the blinds to make it as dark as possible since it was eight in the morning. He took his boxers off and then got in between her legs. He knew they didn't have these 'fuck' sessions a lot since she liked romantic.

He did too but sometimes he just wanted sex without foreplay or anything. It was a type of feeling that would call for a one-night stand if he was single. Luckily his wife was willing to satisfy him the way he wanted. She was truly amazing in his eyes.

Olivia sat up a little and unzipped her sweater. He pulled it off of her and threw it on the side. Olivia got on top of him and let him push inside her as she pulled her t-shirt off. She moved fast as he kissed her breasts. He brought his tongue out only to make her quiver under his touch. Sweat covered her body as he lightly licked her nipple with the tip of his tongue.

Olivia kissed his shoulder as she kept moving. This wasn't the worst thing in the world for her with him not being romantic with her. He was the best she ever had so its not like she would turn him down because he just wanted to bang her.

He picked her up just enough to be in his arms but not to go outside of her. He pressed her body to the headboard and held her there as he moved faster inside of her. This just made Olivia go insane for him since he hardly ever took control in bed cause he liked to make her comfortable knowing she could do whatever she wanted and it wouldn't bother him. Sometimes it did when she turned him down but he couldn't complain, especially when she did things like this for him.

She tried not to let any loud moans out but she liked it when he took control. It made him almost seem more sexier too her because he never did it. Olivia grabbed the headboard behind her back since her body was pressed to it. Mark thrusted harder this time. This caused her to lose balance and her hand slipped. She fell to the floor on her side. Mark right after her since they were in close counters and it would have been too painful for him to jerk out of her.

Olivia's body slammed on the floor and he quickly held himself up before he hit her body.

"Oh shit. You ok?" He asked with a small smile.

She groaned since she hit the floor with good impact "Wouldn't mind if you pulled out now honey"

He did as told and pulled out of her. He gave her a kiss. "You hurting?"

She nodded and slapped his chest "It's your fault"

"My fault?" He sat up and pulled her up by her hand. "You made us fall"

"You moved too hard. Stupid jerk" She rubbed the back of her head and let out a groan "You know if I let you have some fun you don't have to go over the limit"

"Aww you baby. You're just mad cause you didn't get your orgasm" He scooped her up in his arms and picked her up. "Want me make it up? I'll go slow" He gently put her on the bed.

"No. You ruined the moment you testosterone filled dumb man."

Mark smiled and sat down by her "I was sad earlier. You don't have to be mean right after sex. Give me at least an hour before you start insulting me."

"Sorry" She rubbed her elbow "This really hurts"

Mark kissed her elbow. "Anywhere else?"

"Yes. On my ass" She answered as she fell back down on the bed. "Just hold me ok?"

He laid down behind her and wrapped his arms around her stomach. He let out a small whimper feeling his penis rub up against her butt. "Oh sweet Jesus"

Olivia felt him slowly get harder on her. "That better be your hand Mark Samuel Anderson."

"Saying my middle name sure solved that situation easily" he rolled his eyes since now he wasn't aroused anymore. "C'mon let me make it up to you." He kissed her cheek and then her lips. "Please?"

"No. I'm tired," She answered as she wrapped the blanket around herself. "Sleep time"

"Olivia" He whined, "C'mon don't sleep. You can't fall asleep. I'm all set to…" He thought for a second "Fuck you"

Olivia smiled a little with her eyes closed "Oh baby how I love it when you get romantic with me"

He chuckled a little and kissed her bare shoulder "C'mon sleep later."

"Did you at least enjoy banging me against the headboard you horny man?"

"Very much" He answered with a grin.

"Good" Olivia slowly drifted off to sleep "Nighty night my love"

Mark groaned and kissed her on the cheek. He pulled her blanket up more over her shoulder and let her sleep. He slowly drifted off to sleep since he was also tired.

It was around 11 in the morning when they heard knocking on their door. Mark shifted a little and poked Olivia in the arm "Go"

Olivia slapped his hand "You go" She mumbled sleepily. Both were so sleepy that they didn't realize it could have been Lilly having nightmares.

"Daddy?"

Both quickly woke up hearing Lilly in a sad voice. Olivia looked down and both were still naked. She slapped Mark on the chest "Get dressed" she whispered as she quickly got up to get clothes on.

Mark groaned and rubbed his chest "Why did you hit me?" He whispered. "Damn you're violent when you're screwed out of an orgasm" He thought about his sentence, which caused him to giggle finding it very ironic.

Olivia tried not to smile at her husband's cute dirty mind as she grabbed his boxers and threw it at him. There was another knock on the door. "Just a second honey" Olivia pulled her sweats on and then her zip up sweatshirt.

Mark pulled his boxers on under the bed sheet and then a t-shirt.

Olivia unlocked the door and opened it. Lilly was standing there holding her stuffed dog she got for Christmas from Mark with tears filling her eyes. Olivia kneeled down to her eye level. "Hey sweetie, what's wrong?"

"Bad dream" The little girl answered as she kept a tight hug around her toy. "Can I sleep here?"

"Only if you give me a hug" Mark teased with a smile.

Lilly ran in and jumped on the bed. She jumped into his arms and hugged him.

Olivia smiled and came back to the bed knowing Lilly loved Mark more then anything in the world. Sometimes more then her mother.

Mark lifted her up in the air and gave her a kiss on the cheek "Ok little brown eyed girl, lets make those bad dreams go away"

Olivia rolled her eyes knowing it was what he did when Lilly had nightmares. It was ridiculous but always made Lilly laugh.

Mark took her ankles and lifted her upside down. "Get out monster!"

Lilly burst into giggles being upside down. Her pajama shirt was down to her neck because she was upside down. Mark blew on her stomach, which got her laughing hysterically.

He pulled her back up and laid her down in between him and Olivia.

"Do it to mommy" She lifted Olivia's shirt up so her stomach was bare.

Mark nodded and blew on Olivia's stomach. Olivia jumped a little since Mark playfully bit on her so Lilly didn't see it.

He moved away and covered Lilly with the blanket. "Sleepy time?"

She nodded and snuggled to her stuffed toy. She took Olivia's hand for assurance that she was safe now.

Mark gave Lilly a kiss on the head and gently moved over her to give Olivia a kiss. As he kissed her Lilly shifted which caused him to move and by accident kissed Olivia on the eye. He tried to hold his laughter seeing he hurt his wife in the stupidest way possible.

Olivia shook her head and rubbed her eye. She saw that Mark was trying not to smile. She quickly grabbed his nipple which was extremely amusing knowing he couldn't scream or jump so Lilly wouldn't wake up.

Lilly turned around to hug her father. Olivia quickly let go so the little girl didn't know what her parents were doing.

Mark grinned evilly and hugged Lilly as if she was his shield against the detective who liked to mess with him until the end of time.

Olivia smiled a little as Mark slowly snaked his hand on her side to provoke her. He held Lilly in one arm on his chest to protect himself and playfully touched Olivia's breast. Olivia pushed his hand away. He purposefully stuck his hand in her sweats and gently pulled her pubic hair. Olivia jumped and kicked him in the leg since their daughter protected his upper body.

He grinned and pulled his hand out. He took her hand in his and blew her a kiss showing he was done picking on her.

Olivia nodded a little as if in truce. She moved gently to him so Lilly didn't wake up. Olivia gave him a kiss and rested her head on his shoulder.

Mark gave her a kiss on the head. "I'm sorry about being rough earlier," He whispered softly.

Olivia smiled and winked at him. Even if he always apologized after they had that type of sex he didn't need to because Olivia trusted him enough. She knew he wouldn't do anything she didn't like; after all he was the best she ever had.

Mark wrapped his arm around Olivia's waist and held Lilly on his chest as she slept. Olivia kept close to her husband as they watched their daughter sleeping knowing she was safe now.
