Adam looked inside of his locker where he had a picture of him, William and Olivia a couple of years ago. Olivia was kissing William and Adam jumped on William's back purposefully. It was in their backyard and Alexis accidentally took the picture because she was playing with the camera.

He closed his locker in the gym room and headed out to practice.

"Hey Donavan" One of his friends came up to him.

"Hey Darnell"

"You seemed very distracted in Literature today, everything good?"

"Fine. My mom is going to dump her boyfriend so I'm great" He answered with a smirk.

"Who that Dominic guy who was banging her when we showed up?"

"He wasn't banging her, don't talk about my mom that way"

"Yea, sure. But why is she dumping him?" Darnell asked as they stepped out on the football field.

"I made a bet with her. If she won I would have to be nice to that asshole, but she lost so she has to get rid of him."

"Damn so mean. You know your taking this harder then it might have to be."

"What are you talking about?"

"My parents are divorced and my mom comes home with guys all the time but I don't trip about it."

"Your parents are separated by choice, my dad died because some bastard hated the parole he set for him" Adam grabbed a football and passed it to one of his teammates. "Plus this Dominic guy is too into her, I don't like it"

"Maybe he just likes her, I mean I don't blame him. Your mom in jeans equals erection"

Adam turned to look at him "What did you just say?"

"Nothing" Darnell quickly spoke up.

Adam rolled his eyes and grabbed another football and passed it down the field.

Flashback

Olivia arrived at the restaurant where her and William agreed to meet. She spotted him and sat down across him. "Hey"

"Hey" He smiled a little. "Glad you could make it'

"Me too" She started to look through the menu "Got stuck at work"

"I figured" He looked through his own menu "Are you nervous about this at all?"

Olivia put her menu down and looked up at him "Extremely"

He put his own menu down "Me too"

"I feel like were doing it in an opposite way. We having a child together and this is technically our first date."

"That's so weird, I was thinking the same thing today." He let out a small chuckle.

"We're thinking alike already, good sign" Olivia nodded with a smile.

"You like being a cop?"

"Yup. You like being a parole officer?"

"I get to carry around a gun and I already know who's guilty so yea."

"You don't like the rush of being a cop?"

"Hey I get a rush of being a P.O. just cause I sit in the office most of the time doesn't mean I don't get out and kick some ass." He said with a smirk.

"Fair enough. Got any family?"

"Nope. My mom left my dad and me when I was two and my dad passed away when I was 18. No uncles or aunts, meaning no cousins. So it's just me in the Donavan family. You?"

"Nope" Olivia shook her head and took a sip of her water "Never met my father and my mom died. Never had any brothers or sisters or cousins."

"We are so lonely huh?" He teased with a smile.

"Well" Olivia took a another sip of her water "We got each other and this baby"

William smirked and nodded "True"

End Flashback

Olivia passed a pizza slice to Dominic as they sat in Chuck E. Cheese since Dominic brought his little niece and Olivia brought Alexis to play.

"This pizza is actually real good" Dominic mumbled with his mouth full.

Olivia smiled a little at him since she was feeling horrible that she was going to brake up with him. It wasn't just that she lost the bet with Adam but seeing how much Adam wanted him gone was bothering her.

"You ok? You hardly said ten words to me" Dominic asked as he looked at Alexis and his niece playing "Katie keep the dress down" He called over "I'll be right back" He got off his seat and went over to his little niece.

Alexis ran over to Olivia "Hey!"

Olivia picked her up and gave her a kiss "Hey!" She yelled back playfully. "Having fun?"

"Yup" Alexis nodded with a smile. "I'm hungry"

Olivia picked up the pizza slice from her plate "Open" Alexis opened her mouth and took a bite out of the slice.

Dominic came over with Katie in his arms "Food?"

"Yup" The little girl answered. Dominic sat down with her and fed her the pizza.

After a while Katie and Alexis went back to playing.

"What's wrong Liv?" Dominic questioned.

Olivia put her hair behind her ears and crossed her arms on the table. "I…um…I" She bit her bottom lip since she didn't want to brake up with him. "Look I don't think we should see each other anymore"

"What? Why?"

"I just don't think its fair to you. I mean I have two kids and you don't, I shouldn't keep you from living your life"

"Let me decide that for myself" Dominic said in a low voice as he took her hand across the table "C'mon Olivia you know I really like you, why are you doing this? Is it because of Adam?"

"It doesn't matter why, I just…we shouldn't see each other anymore that's it"

He nodded a little "If that's what you want"

"It is" She lied as she pulled her hand away from him. Her cell phone started to ring. She pulled it out and answered it "Benson…yea…I'll be right there" She closed her phone "I have to go."

Dominic nodded "I'll get the kids" he got off his seat and went to get the girls.

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

Later that day Olivia sat at her desk looking over a file. She tried to ignore the glances Elliot was taking of her. "What?" She finally spoke up being annoyed.

"Nothing" He answered after a couple of seconds and looked back down at his papers.

Olivia took a deep breath and shook her head. "I broke up with Dominic if you're wondering why I'm acting all weird"

Elliot nodded knowing she almost always knew what he was thinking. "I was wondering that. Why did you brake up?"

"Adam and I made a bet and I lost."

"Since when do you listen to your sixteen year old son?"

Olivia put her files down and looked up at him "It wasn't about the bet. It was the fact how much Adam wants him gone that bothers me. I just can't let a guy get in between my son and me. That should never happen"

"Olivia" Elliot said in a low voice. "You know Dominic wouldn't even ask you to choose between your son and him. He is a good guy."

Olivia just nodded and looked back down at her papers "That's what is making this so hard" She whispered.

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

Adam walked into the precinct and went into the elevator. He rolled his eyes seeing Dominic on the elevator also "Dominic"

Dominic smiled a little "Adam"

"Why are you here?" He asked seeing that the button was pushed for Olivia's floor already "Booty Call?"

Dominic let out a chuckle as he kept looking at the doors "Work related. Why are you here? Forget your beer?"

Adam smirked and looked at the doors also "Keep laughing doctor. My mom is planning to break up with you just so you know."

Dominic nodded "She already did. Let me guess…you cried and begged for a bastard like me to be gone out of her life so you're the only man huh?"

Adam looked over at him and then at the doors "Nope. She lost a bet. That's how much you're worth to her Dominic."

Dominic looked over at him and said nothing. The doors finally opened and Adam went out first. Dominic took a deep breath and went out. He went to the squad room and ignored Olivia and Adam talking. He went to Elliot with a file from their victim.

Olivia looked over at Dominic and tried to ignore him but it was very hard. She turned back to her son.

Dominic finally finished talking to Elliot and walked over to Olivia "Can we talk for a second?" He asked in a low voice.

Adam looked over at him but said nothing. Olivia nodded "I'll right back sweetie" She told Adam and led Dominic up the stairs to the crib.

She closed the door behind them and looked over at him "What's up?"

"A bet? You betted on if you're going to break up with me?" He asked in a louder voice. "That's how much I mean to you? A damn bet Olivia?"

Olivia opened her mouth to say something but didn't know what.

"Forget it" He shook his head "We're done"

"No Dom, I'm sorry" She quickly spoke up. "I can explain."

"Explain what? What kind of bet was it? Who rolls a four on the dice gets to choose how our relationship goes huh?"

"No. Look I'm sorry. It's really complicated" She walked over to him and gave him a kiss "I'm sorry"

He stepped away "No. You can't just kiss me and make this better Olivia. If we were still dating then fine but we're not because you lost a bet. I don't like it when your son decides how our relationship goes."

"It wasn't just about the bet Dominic" Olivia said in a louder voice "It's complicated"

"Us dating is complicated? Olivia I know Adam doesn't like me and I'm fine with that because I don't care how he feels about me. I care how you feel about me"

"That's the difference Dominic. I want my kids to like the man I bring home"

"Newsflash honey, they will never like any of the men you bring home because it's not their father." He crossed his arms on his chest and kept looking at her. "I guess we're done huh?"

Olivia looked at the floor and slightly nodded "I guess"

He nodded and walked past her. He stopped at the door and looked over his shoulder at her still looking at the ground "For what it's worth…I really cared about you and enjoyed having you around"

She wiped her eyes and nodded "Same here"

He shook his head angrily "This is wrong and you know it" He left the crib and slammed the door closed.

Adam and Elliot looked up and saw Dominic coming down the stairs. Dominic stopped by Adam and looked at him angrily "You made a big mistake kid"

"Screw you"

"Fine. You hold your mother when she's upset over something. You wanted me gone. You got your wish" Dominic walked past him and went out of the squad room.

Olivia quickly came out of the crib and went down the stairs. She said nothing and followed Dominic. She quickly got on the elevator he was on before the doors closed.

Dominic pressed the button and said nothing. Olivia kept looking at him. "I'm so sorry"

"It's fine" He shoved his hands in his pockets and kept looking at the doors.

"I never meant for-"Her sentence got cut off as the elevator jerked them to a halt. Dominic quickly grabbed her before she fell.

"Are you ok?"

"Yea" She nodded.

He let go of her and pulled his cell phone out "I'll call one of the guys."

Olivia sat down on the floor and nodded. "Isn't this romantic?"

He smiled and sat down by her "Very. Here's the icing on the cake, I don't have any signal in here"

Olivia groaned "Great"

He looked up at the vent above their heads "I might be able to get us out of here"

"Wait. Don't" She looked over at him "Cause I know the moment we're out of here you will just walk away"

"I wouldn't have to walk away if you weren't pushing me away. I don't want to walk away Olivia. The only reason I'm giving up so easily is because I don't want to make things so hard for you"

"Why do I always screw things up?" Olivia mumbled and buried her face in her hands "You're amazing and I just have to push you away. I keep making mistakes"

Dominic took her in a hug "No you don't. You have two great kids that love you to death. If anything I'm the screw up for letting you slip away"

Olivia hugged him "I'm so sorry. I need you to know that."

"I do" He whispered, "Hopefully we can still be friends"

She shook her head "This is wrong. I shouldn't brake up with you because of Adam"

Dominic just shrugged and kept his arm around her "It's up to you"

Olivia pulled him down by his shirt and kissed him. He pulled her closer and kissed her back. The elevator suddenly started to move again. Dominic groaned a little since Olivia bit down on his tongue a little by the sudden movement. She let out a chuckle but they kept kissing.

The doors opened and Adam and John were standing there. John cleared his throat to get their attention.

They stopped kissing and just looked into each other's eyes.

Adam kept looking at them but said nothing. He turned around and walked away.

"You want me to talk to him?" John offered.

Olivia shook her head "I will" She answered as she got to her feet. She went out of the elevator and followed her son.

John just looked at Dominic still sitting on the floor "Come on you love bird, get up"

Dominic smiled a little and got off the floor.

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

Olivia leaned on the vending machine as Adam got his soda. "Want to talk to me?"

"No" He answered as he put money in. "No matter what I say you will do the opposite."

"Not if you're civil about it. I really like Dominic and he likes me. Breaking up with him because me and you made a bet isn't right," She said in a low voice.

"It's not just about the damn bet mom" He whispered angrily "You said no one can get in between us and he has succeeded. The fact that you can break my promise and not care shows how much our relationship has changed"

"Adam of course I care" Olivia put her arm around his shoulders "C'mon you know I love you and Alexis no matter what"

He just shrugged "Whatever. I'm going home." He walked away and went to the elevators. John and Dominic were standing close by talking and laughing.

"Hey Adam" Dominic called to him.

Adam looked over at him "What?"

Dominic excused himself from John and walked over to the sixteen year old. He pulled out a picture out of his back pocket. "This was your dads," he said in a low voice "But he gave me that picture. You can have it"

Adam took the picture and looked at it. It was William, Olivia and Dominic sitting a table together that looked like it was some kind of benefit. Olivia had a huge smile on her face and had an arm around each man's neck. William was kissing her on the cheek and Dominic was smiling and just had his arm around Olivia.

Dominic said nothing and just walked away.

Adam got on the elevator as he kept looking at the picture. He gulped trying not to let tears out looking at his father. His best friend. He wanted to hug him so badly so he would say everything would be all right like he always did. He knew that was never going to happen again.

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

Olivia lay on the couch flipping channels with Alexis lying on top of her with her small head on her stomach. The way William used to lay with Olivia.

"Mommy stop moving" The little girl complained.

"Honey I have to breath" Olivia said with a chuckle as she brushed her hair away.

"Spongebob!" She yelled out pointing to the TV "Go back"

Olivia flipped the channels back and left it on the cartoon "Now you watch this and let mommy rest ok?" She stroked the back of her hair.

"Ok" She nodded. She was quiet for two minutes and then spoke up again "Mommy?"

"Yes honey?"

"Is daddy ever coming back?"

Olivia opened her mouth to say something but didn't know how to explain it "Um…well…no honey"

Alexis nodded sadly "I miss him though"

Olivia picked her up let her rest her head on her shoulder "Me too baby" She whispered as she kissed her on the head. "A lot"

Flashback

Olivia lay on the bed in their new house as she watched TV. William came in and took his blazer off.

"Hi wife" he gave her a kiss but she just nodded in response because her attention was on the movie. He turned the TV off and looked at her again "Hi there"

"Will I was watching something c'mon" She complained.

"I want to talk to you" He sat on top of her and planted small kisses on her neck.

"Really? I wanted to talk to you too" She gave him a kiss on the lips "After I watch that movie" She reached for the remote but he got it first. "C'mon"

"Nope" He shook his head "I must torture you by talking to you."

"Torture me by kissing" She whispered with a smirk.

"Well ok" He said with a grin and pushed her down on the bed and started to kiss her through her small giggles.

Their door opened and Adam ran in "You're home!"

William broke the kiss and picked the eleven year old up "What's up?"

"Football" He answered "Let's play. I practiced"

Olivia sat up and kissed Adam on the head "He did. All day in the backyard and then on his videogames"

William smirked and kissed Adam "Meet you in the backyard in five minutes ok?"

Adam nodded and ran out of the room again. William got off of Olivia and unbuttoned his dress shirt.

"Did you have to talk to me about something?" Olivia asked looking at him get ready to play with their son.

"No. I just wanted to annoy you," He answered with a smirk as he pulled his pants off and walked to the closet only in his white tank top and boxer briefs that were against his muscular body.

"Well I actually have to talk you about something" She padded the spot next to her on the bed.

He grabbed jeans and a hoodie and sat down next to her.

Olivia wrapped her arms around his stomach and traced small circles on his muscular chest "It's important"

He pulled his jeans on "I can notice cause you only do the circle thing when you're nervous."

Olivia nodded and kissed him on the back of the shoulder "You can say no just so you know. I don't want you to feel like you're obligated or something"

"Tell me."

Olivia took a deep breath and rested her chin on his shoulder. "I want a girl"

He stopped buckling his belt and looked at her "Like another baby?"

"Yea" She answered with a shrug. "I've always wanted a girl. I can be in here with her baking cookies and you can be with Adam playing football," She said with a small smile.

William nodded and gave her a kiss "Ok"

"What?"

He got off the bed and pulled on his hoodie "Ok. We will start baby making tonight" He gave her another kiss "Anything else or should I tell our boy to come back inside?"

"No. That was it," She answered with a huge smile "I love you"

"I love you too"

End Flashback

Alexis smiled up at Olivia as the cartoon finished "That was funny"

Olivia smiled a little even though she didn't like cartoons so it was always William that watched cartoons with her. "Very funny"

Adam came into the living room and sat down at the end of the sofa. He took the remote and flipped the channel.

"We were watching something!" Alexis yelled at him.

"Not anymore" Adam answered with a smirk.

Alexis gave him a mean look and got off of Olivia. She jumped on Adam and tried to get the remote. "Let go!" She ordered.

"Get away squirt" Adam kept flipping channels as she hung from his back.

Olivia smiled and picked Alexis off Adam "We watched the cartoon already."

"But mommy he is mean" Alexis kept glaring at him and kicked him.

Adam pushed her leg away "Stop"

Olivia put Alexis on her back "Time for bed Lex"

"Nice going Adam" She gave him a mean look. "You're making me go to bed"

Adam smiled and waved "Goodnight shrimp"

"Goodnight" The four year old mumbled and rested her head on Olivia's back.

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

Olivia tucked Alexis in and then came back down. She smiled seeing Adam watching cartoons also. "Oh I'm so telling your friends about this" She teased as she sat down by him.

Adam quickly flipped the channel. He pulled the picture out of his pocket and handed it to her "Dominic gave me this today"

Olivia took the picture and glazed over Williams face with her fingers "It was a New York benefit for the department. NYPD and NYFD."

Adam just nodded "You can have it if you want"

Olivia shook her head and handed it back to him "He gave it to you"

"All I'm going to do is cut his face out. Might as well take it cause it looks like a nice picture" He flipped the channel.

Olivia nodded and put it on the table "You take it. Do what you want with it" She got up and went to her bedroom.

Adam took the picture and just looked at it.

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

The next day Adam stood by his locker looking at the picture of his father and mother and him. He pulled the other photo out of his pocket and bended the part where Dominic was. He didn't want to rip it but he didn't want his picture there until he was ready.

He put it under the other photograph and just looked at it for a second. The bell rang which made him get startled. He closed the locker and headed to class.
