A/N: Here is the last chapter. Sorry about the big time jump. The sequel is going to be called All You Need is Faith...so be on the look out for it in a day or so. But the sequel will only continue depending on reviews...

Disclaimer: I own nothing except Laila.

Last time:

Casey turned the toddler to face her mother and sat her back down on the bed.

Olivia gave her a hug to calm her down. "It's ok, baby. You need to stay with Auntie Casey for the night. Mommy will see you in the morning, ok?" Olivia whispered and wiped away the toddler's tears.

Laila nodded. "Ok, Mommy."

"Good girl. I love you." She said and gave her a kiss on the cheek.

"Love you too, Mommy." Laila replied and let Casey pick her up again.

"Bye Liv."

"Bye Case. Thanks again."

"No problem." Casey replied and walked out with Laila on her hip.

-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-

The next morning Casey walked in to Olivia's hospital room at 7:35am, holding Laila's tiny olive toned hand as she walked beside her. They found Olivia all packed and ready to leave.

"Morning Liv."

"Morning Mommy." Laila greeted Olivia as she ran up to her mother, who was sitting on the bed.

"Morning Case. Morning baby girl." Olivia replied sadly as she picked up her young daughter.

"Liv, why are you packed and ready to leave already?"

"I'm going home. I'll discharge myself if I have to." Olivia replied as she fiddled with her daughter's tiny pony tails.

"Liv, you shouldn't do that." Casey said softly.

Olivia shrugged as she continued to fiddle with her daughter's soft brown hair. "Well I am. You know I hate hospitals, Casey."

Casey sighed, knowing that she wouldn't win. "I got to get to work. See you later."

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

Six months drifted by slowly. Olivia was sitting on the bed in Casey's spare bedroom with Laila sitting on her lap as they watched 'Dora the Explorer.'

Casey was in the kitchen when there was a knock on the door. She opened it and gasped in shock. It was Elliot.

"Y—you're dead." She stuttered in absolute shock.

Elliot shook his head. "I was in Witness Protection. Where are Liv and Laila? They're weren't at home."

"They're here." She said and let Elliot in, "Elliot, I should warn you."

"Of what?" He asked in confusion.

"Liv is depressed. I mean like a deep depression. I think most of it is that she just misses you so much." She explained.

Elliot nodded sadly. "Can I see her?"

"Of course." She said and guided him to the spare bedroom.

Elliot opened the door to see Olivia and Laila watching 'Dora the Explorer.'

He sighed, seeing how depressed she really was.

Olivia looked up in shock when she saw him. She placed Laila on the bed and walked over to him.

"You're d-dead." She whispered in disbelief and put her hand on his cheek.

"I'm not baby. I'm back." He whispered back looking in to her deep mocha orbs.

"N-n-no. I was told that you were dead." She whispered just mere seconds before fainting.

"Olivia..." Casey and Elliot called out in unison.

"Mommy." Laila called out, now standing on the bed.

"Move over, sweetie, so we can lay Mommy on the bed." Casey said softly as she and Elliot picked Olivia up.

Laila nodded and moved to the other side of the bed.

Casey and Elliot laid Olivia down on the bed and waited til she regained consciousness.

Olivia's eyes fluttered open and looked around at Elliot, Casey and Laila in confusion.

"El?"

"Yes baby, it's me." Elliot cooed and took her hand in his.

"Oh my God, it's wasn't a dream." She spoke softly with silent tears.

Elliot caressed Olivia's cheek. "Nope, I'm really here, Livvie." He spoke gently and sat beside her on the end of the bed.

"I---I lost our baby." She cried.

"Huh? What do you mean?" He asked in confusion.

"I was pregnant with your child. Matthew attacked me and I- I lost it."

Elliot gave her a kiss on the cheek and caressed her arm. "Oh baby, it's not your fault. I thought Matthew was in prison."

"He was released. He killed our baby." She whispered.

Elliot wrapped his arms around her and let her cry silent tears in to his neck.

When Olivia ran out of tears, Elliot scooped her up. "Come on, I'm taking you and Laila home. Come on, Laila."

"Coming Uncle El."

"Thanks for everything, Casey." Elliot said as he carried Olivia out.

"Thanks Case."

"Not a problem. See ya." Casey replied.

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

Olivia woke and noticed that it was dark outside. Elliot was lying beside her, awake. She was still feeling tired. She rolled over to face Elliot.

He smiled when he saw her awake. "Hey baby."

"Hey. What time is it?" She asked as she rested her head on his bare chest.

"It's nearly midnight, honey. Laila's sound asleep. I gave her some chocolate milk before bed so she'll be alright."

Olivia smiled. "My baby girl loves her chocolate milk. Thanks, El."

Elliot kissed her on the lips. "No problem, honey. I love you."

"I love you too, El. Goodnight."

"Night, baby." Elliot replied and wrapped his arms around her before they both driftled off to sleep.

Olivia woke the next morning to see Elliot and Laila walk in with breakfast on a tray. A plate of bacon and eggs and a glass of orange juice.

"Morning Livvie." He greeted her as he passed her the tray.

"Morning Mommy." Laila said as she climbed on to the bed and sat beside her mother.

"Morning El. Morning baby." She said with a smile before she picked up the glass to take a sip of the juice.

She saw a gold banded ring with ten tiny diamonds.

Olivia put down the glass and picked up the ring, looking in to Elliot's cerulean blue eyes.

Elliot looked in to her chocolate brown orbs.

"Olivia Marie Benson, I love you with all my heart. I want to wake every morning with you by my side. Would you do me the honour of giving me your hand in marriage?" He asked on one knee beside the bed.

Olivia had happy tears stream down her olive toned cheeks as she slid the engagement ring on to her left ring finger.

"Yes, of course, I will marry you, Elliot Richard Stabler."

Elliot kissed her on the lips and passed her some forms.

"Well you need to sign these then, baby."

"What are these?" She asked and then read them. "Adoption papers for Laila."

"I want to be Laila's legal father."

Olivia nodded with a smile. "Well pass me a pen then."

Elliot passed her a pen and then picked up Laila.

"You can call me daddy now, honey."

"What about my other daddy? Evil daddy?"

"You won't see him anymore, baby." Olivia said as she signed the papers.

"Yay!" Laila cheered, then looked in to Elliot's icy blue orbs. "I love you...daddy." She whispered and wrapped her arms around Elliot's neck, resting her head on his shoulder.

"I love you too, sweetpea."

Olivia Benson had lost her faith in love but now she believed again thanks to Elliot. Now she had the life that she always wanted for herself and her daughter. One filled with love and respect.
