Chapter 2- Shadow

Olivia stood on the side walk in front of a news paper stand, pretending to read the New York Times. She scanned the streets.

"Any sign?" Cragen asked through her ear piece.

The detective's got a major lead on a rape case. 15 year old, Mary McAllister, id her rapist. Ivan Daniels, a senior student at Mary's school. When the detectives' went to his address to arrest him, his mother told them he wasn't home but knew where the 18 year hung out.

Now standing on the street looking around the crowd, Olivia knew that they were going to find him.

"Got him," Fin said through the ear piece.

"Where?" Olivia asked looked around.

"11 o'clock. Black hat and jacket. Heading your way Liv."

Olivia looked where Fin was describing. She spotted Ivan walking with his group of friends. "I see him," Olivia said folding the paper in half and placed it under her arm.

Ivan looked up and saw Olivia; he looked at her for a moment. He knew something wasn't right.

'Come on, come on you punk,' Olivia thought rocking on the heels of her feet. She pretended to look both ways of the heavy street. Ivan friends looked at him and asked him if he was okay. Ivan kept his eyes on the detective. He started to back slowly. 'Shit, his going to make a run for it,' Olivia thought again.

Ivan quickly turned and took off back down the street. Olivia ran after him.

"Police! Move!" Olivia screamed as she ran after the teenager. People on the street moved out of the way for the detective to run. She could hear heavy footsteps behind her, meaning Elliot and Fin on her trail.

Ivan turned into the alley, Olivia and Elliot right behind him. Fin kept running to cut the kid off if he tried to escape.

"Police Ivan, stop!" Olivia yelled. They were coming up to a wire gate. Ivan sped up and jumped on to it and started to climb.

Olivia caught up and grabbed Ivan waist and pulled. The 18 year old came crashing down, they both stumbled backwards. As Olivia went to hand cuff him, Ivan took a swing and his fist connected with the side of Olivia's jaw. The detective stumbled back but soon recovered. She turned Ivan over and placed her knee on his back then pushed her weight into it. Ivan yelled in pain.

"Ivan Daniel, you're under arrest for the charge of rapping Mary McAlister, resisting arrest and assaulting a police officer. Anything you say will be held against you in the court of law. You have the right for an attorney, if you can't afford one, one will be provided. Do you understand those rights?"

All Ivan could down was nod. Olivia looked around and saw her fellow co-workers standing there. Olivia removed her knee and picked him up with the help of Elliot. Placing Ivan into the back of the squad car, Olivia wiped her mouth; she removed her hand and saw blood on her fingers. "Punk," Olivia mumbled.

"You okay, Liv?" Fin asked.

"He caught me off guard," Olivia replied moving her jaw. 'Its going to kill tomorrow. Wonder what Alex can do,' she thought. "Let's get back to the stations. He has some questions to answer.

-------

Alex rushed into the station after getting a call saying her wife had been assaulted while making an arrest.

Looking around the squad room looking for Olivia, she could see her. "Where is she?" Alex asked Elliot who was sitting at his desk.

"Alex, hey. She's up in the cribs," he replied pointing to the stairs. Alex thanked him and walked up the stairs. Opened the door slowly she noticed her wife standing at the window at the end of the room. Slowly walking over to Olivia she could see the brunette shoulders were hunched.

"Liv," the doctor said softly.

Olivia head snapped around. "Alex? What are…?" she stopped and turned to her wife.

Alex noticed the bruise already forming and a cut on her lower lip. "Don called me. Are you okay?" she reached up to cup Olivia cheek.

Olivia hissed with pain as Alex traced the bruise. "I'm fine."

"It doesn't look that bad. What happened, Liv?"

Olivia told Alex what case they had come across. "His mother told us where we could find him. He spotted me and took off running, I chased after him. He ran down into an alley and tried to escape over a wire fence. I grabbed him and pulled him down. He swung around and hit me, I finally cuffed him."

"Where is this kid? I want to give him a piece of my mind," Alex said turning to walk back out. Olivia wrapped her arms around her wife and held her.

"I can't let you do that doctor," she whispered.

"Why not?"

"Because then I have to arrest you. And I don't feel like getting punched again or having to put my wife in a cell."

"So did he confess?" Alex asked.

Olivia nodded.

"Good."

Olivia smiled then frowned.

"Hurts?"

Olivia nodded again.

"Oh my tough detective," Alex said in a child like voice.

"Shut up," Olivia whined. "Have you got the rest of the day off?" she asked.

Alex nodded, "yeah as soon as Don rang me, I got someone to cover the rest of my shift."

"Okay, I'll go talk to Cragen," Olivia replied and the women left the cribs.

Olivia tapped on the captain's door. Cragen looked up from his paperwork.

"What's up Olivia?" he asked.

"I was wondering if I leave early?"

"Sure, I would put some ice on the jaw if I was you."

"Thanks cap, see ya tomorrow," Olivia replied turning around to see Alex talking to the guys.

Grabbing her jacket and keys, Olivia looked at Alex.

"Oh, it looks like were going. Speak to you guys soon. Fin say hi to Jenny for me."

Fin laughed, "Will do, doctor." Alex had set up her friend from college with the detective. Alex has never seen a cuter couple. Well after Olivia and I, of course.

Olivia grabbed Alex hand and they walked out.

----

Alex opened the door and Olivia walked in. They could hear Holly giggling and yelling in the television in the living room.

Peeking in, they saw the little brunette was watching an Elmo video and holding the red toy in her arms.

Olivia made a little noise making Holly look over with a wide grin on her face. Crawling off the sofa, leaving Elmo, Holly ran over to her mothers. Olivia kneeled down and opened her arms.

Holly stopped as she noticed her mothers face. Tilting her head, she pointed to her mother's cheek, "owie."

Olivia smiled, "its okay baby-girl."

Holly slowly walked to Olivia. She raised her small hand and placed it on Olivia's bruise. Her brown eyes looking at her hand. Olivia melted as she looked at her daughter. Grabbing the small hand she kissed the palm then picked her up and hugged her close.

Alex smiled and tickled the back of Holly's legs. Holly giggled and kicked her feet.

"Hey," Alex sister Emma entered the room holding a text book.

"Hey Em."

"Whoa, Liv, what's with the..?" she pointed to her own cheek.

"Ran into a door," Olivia lied giving the younger blonde a smile.

"Oh okay. Do you at least punch it back or win the fight?"

"Emma!"

"Whaaat?"

Alex pointed to Emma. "Don't," she said.

Emma shrugged he shoulders then walked back into the dinning room to continue studying.

"Baby-girl, you want to finish watching Elmo?" Olivia asking, pointing to the screen. The two year old looked at where her mother was pointing and nodded. Olivia placed her back on the sofa and kissed her head. Leaving Holly with Elmo, Alex and Olivia went into their bedroom. "I'm going to have a shower, okay?"

Alex nodded and started to take off her jeans. Olivia walked into the enjoining bathroom to take a shower. Alex changed into something more comfortable then went to find her sister. She found Emma sitting at their dinning table, studying.

"So are you going to tell me what happened to Liv?" Emma asked without looking up at her sister.

"It's not up to me," Alex replied. "What you studying?"

"Art," Emma replied flipping the page.

"Oh, so are you staying for dinner?"

Emma looked up, "Are you cooking?"

"Why? What's wrong with my cooking?" Alex snapped.

"Alex, I nearly had food poisoning last time you cooked for me," Emma replied.

"I was 12 years old. Cassandra and Nash didn't want to cook. Mom was unwell. You were being a pain in the ass. I was trying to shut you up."

"By trying to kill me?"

"Excuse me?"

Alex and Emma looked up. Olivia stood at the doorway.

"She tried to kill me when I was 7," Emma said.

"Well I didn't try hard enough did I?"

"Whoa, that was below the belt," Emma replied.

"Whatever. Are you staying for dinner or not?"

"Yeah, I stay if you're not cooking."

Alex groaned loudly, "God, you're unbelievable," she yelled and walked away.

"I take after you," Emma called out. They heard Alex groan.

The school bus stopped outside their house. Jake and Dylan stepped out and ran up the path. Alex opened the door and they ran in, threw their school bang and continued straight into the living room. Jake grabbed the television remote and changed the channel from Elmo to Ninja Turtles.

Holly started to get upset when Elmo disappeared off the screen.

"Hey," Alex said walking into the living room. She turned the television off, both Jake and Dylan whined. "That was very rude. Firstly, no television without homework done, secondly, Holly was watching her show."

"But Mom, Ninja turtles is on….." Jake started

"I don't care," Alex interrupted, "Now march up to your rooms and start your homework."

"But Mom," Jake whined.

Alex placed her hands on her hips, "Now Mister or there won't be any television or videogames for a week."

Jake and Dylan quickly scattered to their feet and ran up stairs after grabbing their bags. Alex turned on the television back on and back to Elmo. She placed a kiss on the two year old forehead and wiped the wet cheeks.

Alex walked into the kitchen to see Emma and Olivia working on dinner.

"What's going on in here?"

"We are cooking dinner," Olivia replied.

"You better watch her," Alex said pointing to Emma making Olivia laugh. Emma glared at her sister.

"Mom," Dylan yelled.

Alex sighed and walked out and up the stairs. She walked into the boys' room and noticed Dylan's head was stuck through the wooden slacks of his bed. "Dylan!"

"Jake pushed me," Dylan whined when he heard his mother's voice. He couldn't see her; he tried to pull his head out.

"Jake!"

"He pinched me," Jake replied.

"That doesn't mean anything, look at your brother," Alex replied pointing to Dylan who was getting more frustrated. "I'll get to you in a moment," Alex said sternly. Dylan tried pulling his head out again. "Dylan don't pull, you'll hurt yourself. Olivia, help!"

Olivia heard her wife's cry; she looked at Emma then ran up the stairs taking two steps at a time. Emma was right behind her.

"What? What's happened?" she asked.

Alex stepped away from Dylan for Olivia and Emma to see the damage.

"Oh my," Olivia gasped.

"Can you give me a hand?" Alex asked climbing onto Dylan's bed.

Olivia and Emma walked and stood behind Dylan to examine the situation. "How on earth did you get like this?" Emma asked.

"Jake pushed me and I fell," Dylan said.

"Alright let's try this. On 3, Alex you push and Emma you pull," Olivia said.

Alex and Emma nodded.

"Now Dylan, you might feel a little of the pinch, okay?"

"Okay."

"Okay. One, two, three. Go," Olivia said.

Alex pushed and Emma pulled while Olivia pulled the wood making Dylan head popped out. Dylan eyes went wide as his hands went to his neck. Olivia and Emma kneeled in front of him to see if there were any injuries.

Alex had gotten off Dylan's bed and placed her hands on her hips. She looked at Jake, "Alright Mister, I want to speak with you," she said.

"Come on Dylan. You can help us cook dinner," Olivia said leading the younger boy out of the room.

After a long talk that resulted in no video games for 3 days for both boys, everyone sat down for dinner. Chicken stir fry was served and eaten. They talk about the boys' day at school and the processes of Emma's studies.

Dinner had finished and dinners were done. Jake was summoned to the dinning table to finish his homework while Dylan was upstairs doing his. Emma had left shortly after Holly had been put to bed.

Olivia and Alex were lounging on the sofa watching an old romantic movie when they had put the boys to bed. Olivia was in between Alex's legs, leaning back against her wife.

"How's your jaw honey?" Alex asked.

"Fine," Olivia replied.

"You okay?"

Olivia looked up; she noticed the concerned look in the blue eyes. "Yeah, I'm just a little tired," she replied.

Alex played with Olivia's hair, "You want to turn in early?"

"Okay," Olivia replied sitting up. Alex turned off the television and grabbed her wife's hand and managed to find her way through the darken room. They soon crawled into bed. Olivia wrapped herself around Alex; she kissed Alex's lips and whispered "I love you."

"Love you too," Alex whispered and closed her eyes.

What they didn't know was that a dark shadow in a parked car, across the street was watching them.

"I'll get you soon, Detective Benson, and your little family too."
