Last Time:

Elliot and Olivia were woken at about 2:45am by the shrill ringing of Elliot's cell phone.

"Stabler." Elliot answered, half asleep as Olivia groaned and rolled over.

"Ok, I'll be right there." He said and hung up before giving Olivia a kiss and got up.

He got dressed before grabbing his badge and gun. Elliot then quietly left the apartment, locking up behind him.

Olivia was woken again by the apartment phone ringing. She looked at the clock, it was now 5:16am.

"Hello?... Oh no! I'm on my way." She replied before getting up.

She had to get Laila and herself ready.

-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-

Olivia ran in to the Emergency Department, dressed in black yoga style pants and a pink and white striped long sleeved top with Laila, half asleep on her hip, dressed in a little light purple long sleeved dress with white tights.

"Fin!" She called out when she saw him pacing around the waiting room.

Fin walked over to her and didn't say anything. He didn't know how to. He knew it would break her heart.

"No! No! Please tell me that he is still alive! Please Fin." She begged and began to sob.

Fin put his hand on her shoulder in an effort to comfort her. "I'm sorry, Liv."

Olivia dropped to the floor in tears. Fin had never seen her like this and it worried him.

Olivia was holding Laila close to her. Laila was now fully awake and trying to cheer up her mother.

"It ok, Mommy. I love you, Mommy." The toddler whispered softly in to her mother's ear.

As Olivia sobbed Casey ran in. She ran straight over to Olivia and squatted down in front of her sobbing best friend.

"Come on, 'Livia. I'll take you and Laila back to my place." She spoke softly as she wiped away her best friend's tears.

Olivia looked up at the red haired ADA. "Did Fin call you?"

Casey nodded. "Yeah, he did, honey." She said and helped Olivia up off the white tiled flooring of the waiting room.

-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-

Casey unlocked the door and walked in to her apartment with Olivia and Laila close behind.

"Take a seat on the couch, Liv. I'll put Laila down in the spare bedroom." She spoke softly so she didn't wake Laila.

Olivia nodded. "Thanks." She replied in whisper and very gently passed her young daughter to her.

Olivia sat down on the couch and slowly slid down till she lying comfortably before she ended up falling asleep.

Casey emerged from the spare bedroom and walked in to the living room to find Olivia curled up on the couch, asleep so she decided to leave her.

She walked in to the kitchen and got herself some breakfast. Casey ate it quietly and just as she placed her bowl and spoon in the kitchen sink to be washed later, she heard Olivia cry out in her sleep.

Casey walked up to the couch to see her best friend crying in her sleep and calling out for Elliot.

"Elliot...Elliot, please come back. I love you." Olivia was mumbling in her sleep with silent tears.

Casey was about to walk away after deciding to leave her asleep when she saw Laila emerge from the spare bedroom.

"Hey sweetie." Casey whispered as she walked over to the toddler.

"Auntie Casey. Potty." Laila whispered back, rubbing her little whiskey brown eyes.

Casey nodded and took her tiny olive toned hand. "Come on, honey."

As Casey helped the three year old in the bathroom, she decided to ask Laila what was troubling Olivia other then Elliot being gone.

"La-La?"

"Yes Auntie Casey?"

"What's wrong with Mommy?" She asked as she helped Laila pull up her tights.

"Mommy say she need Uncle El."

"Did Mommy say why she needs Uncle El?"

Laila nodded.

-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-

Four hours after being rushed to the hospital Elliot woke to find two FBI Agents beside his bed.

"What happened?" Elliot asked in confusion.

"You witnessed a hideous crime while you were investigating a rape/homicide and was shot by the perp." Agent Branch informed him.

Elliot nodded. "Did you catch the bastard?"

Agent Branch shook his head. "I'm afraid not. Sorry."

Agent Eric Branch stood at six foot and had dark brown hair and hazel eyes. He was also a very experienced FBI Agent.

"Don't tell me Witness Protection Program." Elliot spoke angrily. "You told Olivia that I was dead, didn't you?"

Agent Branch nodded. "Yes, we had to."

"I've got to say goodbye to her and Laila, if you aren't letting them come with me." He begged.

Agent Branch shook his head. "We can't allow that. It's too dangerous. We leave tonight, here is the information." He said and passed the folder that contained the information to Elliot.

Elliot sighed and opened up the folder.

It read:

Name: Marcus Kennedy.

Date of Birth: 27th September 1963.

Place of Birth: Manhattan, New York.

Job: Homicide Detective.

Moving to: Boston, Mass. (A/N: Not sure on the spelling so I left it like that.)

Elliot closed the folder and smiled at the date, not the year. It was Laila's birthday. He was thankful that he had lots of photos of Olivia and Laila. No-one was ever going to take them away from him. He just wished that he could at least say goodbye to them.

Elliot didn't like the idea that Olivia and Laila thought that he was dead.

"They must be hysterical right now." He thought to himself as he rubbed the back of his neck.

Elliot just wished that he could hold her and tell her that he was alright but he couldn't; instead he was being moved to another state under another name in just over twelve hours.

The night came too quickly for Elliot. He was already packed and ready when Agent Branch walked in. "Ready?"

"Please tell me say goodbye to Olivia and Laila." He begged.

Agent Branch shook his head. "No. I'm sorry, Elliot but it's too dangerous. We have to leave now. So are you ready?"

Elliot sighed and stood up. "No but let's go."
