Elliot walked into Captain Cragen's office, after knocking on the door, to report what information Olivia had given to him.
Don Cragen looked up at his detective in surprise. "Why aren't you with Olivia?"
Elliot sighed. "She kicked me out. Casey is with her now," he explained.
Cragen put down his pen and clasped his hands together, in a professional manner, on his desk. "What can I do for you then, Elliot?"
"Olivia gave me the name of someone that she's noticed has been following her around the last few days."
"Well what's the name then?"
"Larissa O'Connor."
"That rape victim who's case we couldn't continue due to lack of evidence?" Cragen asked in confusion.
Elliot nodded. "That's the one."
"Ok. Take Munch with you to question her."
"Alright then, Cap," Elliot replied and walked out.

"What do you mean, Liv? What problems?" Casey asked, cautiously.
Olivia was about to answer but the women were interrupted by Dr Cummings with a new IV bag. "Don't mind me, ladies. Olivia, I am just changing your IV and I have to check your stitches and vitals," the older doctor explained to her patient.
Olivia just nodded and closed her eyes while her doctor did the things that she explained.
"Ok Olivia, your wound is healing nicely and your vitals are just a little high but they should go down. I'll be back in about an hour for my last rounds for my shift then Dr Maxwell Taylor will be taking over."
"Thanks," the female detective replied with a slight smile, with her eyes now open again.
Once the hospital room door was gently shut behind the friendly doctor, Casey looked back at Olivia. "'Livia, what is going on, honey?"
Olivia sighed. "In the last six months I have been stalked by about four different people. All female, all know Simon. All know that he is my brother," Olivia explained and then yawned, "I'm tired. Sorry."
Casey nodded. "That's ok. Rest up and I'll see you later," she whispered and walked out.
The ADA walked out of the hospital and took out her cell phone. She scrolled down her contacts and pressed the call button on 'Elliot cell'.
The detective answered after just three rings.
'Stabler.'
"Hey Elliot."
'Hey Casey. What's up? How's Liv?'
"Olivia just gave me some more information."
'What did she say?'
"In the last six months she's been stalked by four different people. All female, all know Simon. All know that Liv is his half sister," Casey explained.
Elliot sighed. 'How does she know? Did she give any names?'
"I don't know, Elliot. She didn't say. She claimed that she was tired."
Elliot rubbed his sore neck and sighed. 'Ok thanks, Casey. I got to go.'
"Ok. Bye." The ADA hung up and walked over to her black two door sports car. She had to be in court in an hour.

Olivia woke up a few hours later to see Fin sitting quietly in the chair beside the hospital bed.
Upon seeing her open her coffee coloured eyes, Fin smiled. "Good morning, baby girl."
Olivia smiled, weakly. "Hey Fin. What time is it?"
Fin looked at his watch, quickly before looking back at Olivia. "It's nearly eleven, Liv. How you feeling?"
"Like I've been shot," she said with a small laugh, causing her to hiss in pain.
"You ok, Liv?" Fin asked in concern.
Olivia nodded with a slight smile. "Laughing, not a good idea."
Fin smiled back. "No, maybe not but it's good to see you still have your sense of humour."
An uncomfortable silence fell upon the small white hospital room between the two detectives until Fin spoke up again. "Baby girl, what's going on?" The concern and care clearly evident in his voice.
Olivia sighed and licked her lips. She knew that she could trust Fin but she didn't want to burden him with her problems. "Nothing Fin. I'm fine," she said, trying to keep her voice even, strong and steady.
Fin had known her for long enough and knew that she was holding something back, deep inside.
"Liv, don't give me that 'I'm fine' crap. I've known you for a long time, baby girl. You know you can tell me anything," he spoke softly.
The brunette detective sighed lightly and pressed a button to raise the head of the bed a bit so she wasn't in a fully reclined position before looking back at Fin. "I'm thinking about leaving Special Victims. I've been thinking about it for a few months now," she finally admitted.
Fin was in total shock. He knew that SVU was in her blood. "What? Why?"
Olivia began to bite her bottom lip, thinking that she shouldn't have told Fin.
Knowing that she wasn't going to give him an answer, he turned and looked toward the door, only to see Casey standing there. She'd returned to see Olivia during her lunch break. "Casey, hang just outside the door. I need talk to ya."
Casey simply just nodded and backed out of the eerily quiet hospital room as Fin stood up.
"I'll be back to check on ya later, baby girl," he whispered and gave her a light kiss on the cheek before walking toward the door.
Olivia's soft, weak voice stopped him. "I'm sorry."
Fin stopped and turned back to the woman that he saw as a little sister. "You have nothing to be sorry for, baby girl. Now get some rest and I'll see you later," he spoke gently and walked out of the room to talk to Casey.

The red haired ADA was sitting on a chair, just inches from the doorway. She looked up when she heard Fin walk out, closing the door behind him.
"What's up, Fin?" she asked, knowing it was about Olivia.
The detective sat down beside the ADA and sighed. "I'm worried about her."
"And you think the rest of us of aren't?"
"I know ya'll are...She's hiding something back, Casey and if she doesn't open up, she'll eventually crack."
Casey nodded in understanding and agreement. "Yes, I know but she flatly refuses to say what though."
"She wants to leave SVU."
It was now Casey's turn to be shocked. "What? Please tell me that you're joking."
Fin shook his head and rubbed his tired face. "I wish I was, Case. Please talk her outta it."
Casey nodded and stood up. "I'll try my hardest...but we all know how stubborn Olivia Benson is," she replied before opening the door and walking in to the hospital room.
