A/N: Hello! I hope everyone is enjoying their weekend. I just wanted to tell you how much I enjoyed writing this chapter…I think it's my favorite so far, so I hope you like reading it as much as I liked writing it! Calvin is BACK on SVU this Wednesday at 10/9c on NBC… so don't miss this week's episode (I'm so pumped!) If you like this story, go check out Piper Chris Melinda Halliwell's story Absent Love that I beta. Trust me, it's getting reaaaally good! As always, enjoy, leave me a review if you don't mind (even just one word could make my day, no joke) and everything goes to its rightful owners.

Later that night, Olivia was packing up duffel bags. One for herself, one for Calvin for when Elliot came to pick him up in the morning, she knew he would likely forget something if she let him do it all on his own. She sighed for what seemed like the millionth time that night and ran a hand nervously through her hair. She glanced over at her bedside table and stared at the picture sitting on it. The picture showed her and Calvin at the precinct, making a funny face at the camera, and Calvin was attempting to give her bunny ears behind her head. It was unsuccessful though, because he had a piece of paper gripped in his hand.

It was a Saturday, a few weeks after Calvin had come to live with her. They were still living in her old apartment, and still in the process of legally adopting Calvin. Olivia had to come into work to finish up a few things, they would only be here a couple of hours, and Calvin had insisted on tagging along.

While she was at her desk, filling out a few almost-late files, Calvin had snatched her phone and was playing around with the camera. He was sitting across from her at Elliot's desk, who didn't come in today. Olivia laughed at some of the faces Calvin was making while entertaining himself by taking pictures of himself. He would turn the phone backwards so the camera was towards him, make a face, try to push the button to snap the picture, then quickly turn the phone around to see what the picture turned out to look like. He made a frustrated sound.

"You know," Olivia advised without looking up. "That would be a lot easier if you used the front camera."

He cocked his head to the side slightly, "What do you mean?"

"Here, let me see."

He handed her the phone and Olivia pressed something on the screen before handing it back. "Woah," Calvin exclaimed, while staring at the screen. He could now take pictures without turning the camera around backwards. "Thanks," He grinned at her.

Olivia glanced up as she heard the faint ding of the elevator. And the familiar clip clop of heels walking down the hallway.

"I'll see who it is!" Calvin quickly scooted towards the hallway in the chair on wheels. He glided out of the office area, into the hallway. Olivia lost sight of him. "Oh," She heard him say. "What are you doing here?"

"I was hoping you would be here," A voice answered. Olivia instantly recognized the voice to be Casey Novak. "Is Olivia around?"

"She's in there." Olivia could imagine Calvin pointing in her direction. Calvin rolled back in backwards, so he could snap pictures of Casey while she was walking in.

Casey laughed and playfully put up the papers she was holding in front of her face. "Each picture will cost you ten dollars."

"Yeah right," Calvin responded doubtingly. He took another picture.

Casey grabbed onto the back of the chair and pushed him across the room with a grin. "Ha!" She walked over to Olivia. "This is for you," She threw the paper she was holding in front of the detective.

Olivia scanned the paper and grinned up at the ADA. "Casey, you are the best. I wasn't expecting this for another month."

"Yeah, well, this is a special circumstance. Now, I better go before your personal paparazzi comes back to get me."

Olivia laughed. "See you."

Casey smiled before heading back towards the elevator.

"Hey!" Calvin called out. "Where do you think you're going!" He started to follow her again in the chair.

Casey sped up her pace and managed to make it into the elevator before Calvin could take another picture. "Bye, Calvin!" She yelled out as the doors shut.

Calvin came rolling back towards her, playfully sulking. He then spotted the paper Olivia was holding. "What's that?"

"Your adoption papers," She told him as casually as she could manage.

His eyes lit up like fireworks, "Can I see?"

"Sure," She handed him the piece of paper. He took a minute to read it. He looked up at her and grinned. "This calls for a picture."

"Calvin, no," Olivia groaned.

"Aw, come on, just two!"

"Two?" Olivia questioned as Calvin came to stand by her.

"One for smiling, one for silly faces," He explained. "Okay," He held the phone at arm's length to where both of their faces were on the screen. "Serious face first. One…two…three!" Olivia heard the shutter sound of the picture take and she dropped her smile.

"Hey, that was a good one! Okay, now silly. One…two…three!" Olivia felt Calvin put his hand behind her head and she opened her mouth to say something to him when she heard the shutter sound.

Calvin pulled the phone closer to get a better look at the picture. He started cracking up, "Look at your face! It's perfect!"

Olivia looked at the screen at started laughing along with him. Calvin had his tongue sticking out with his eyes crossed, and his hand was doing a semi bunny ear behind Olivia's head. Semi because that hand still clutched his adoption papers. Her mouth was hanging open and she looked plain ridiculous.

"We'll have to print that one out," She told him with a grin.

"Yes we will," He agreed, still laughing.

Olivia smiled fondly at the memory. She had printed out and framed the picture that night. And she had the ones of Casey saved on her laptop for blackmail uses.

"Hey, mom?" Calvin called out from the living room, where he was supposed to be doing homework.

"Yeah?" She called back.

"I finished everything! Can I watch TV now?"

"Sure." She turned back to the bags with a groan. She ended up packing Calvin almost two weeks worth of clothes, just in case. His job was to pack anything else he would need. And of course, Olivia would give Elliot her apartment key in case he ended up forgetting anything. She packed herself the whole load of clothes she had just washed, not paying them any attention while folding and packing them. When she was satisfied she was done, she walked out of her room into the living room. She found Calvin slouched on the couch, quietly watching Iron Man.

He looked up as she walked in. He flashed a tired smile at her before turning back to the movie.

"Shouldn't you be in bed by now?" She teased while sitting down next to him.

He leaned his head onto her shoulder, "I wanted to stay up with you awhile before you left tomorrow."

Olivia could practically feel her heart melt. She kissed the top of his head and said nothing.

"Will I be able to call you?" Calvin questioned.

"I don't know…it's different every time. I hope you'll be able to call me."

"Me too," He mumbled, his eyes shutting against her shoulder.

Olivia smiled as she heard his soft snores only moments later. She rested her head on top of his before feeling her own eyes close.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-

She woke up the next morning to her alarm. Thank goodness it resets itself every morning, Olivia thought to herself. Calvin was still asleep on her shoulder. Olivia stood up, careful to lay Calvin back down on the couch, and flinched. Pain shot through her neck from falling asleep with Calvin on the couch. She quickly walked into her room to turn off the alarm before getting into the shower.

When she came out of the bathroom fully dressed, she discovered a fully awake Calvin sitting on her bed. "Hey," She told him softly, walking over.

"Hi," He responded quietly.

She sat next to him and offered him a sad smile. "Are you okay?"

"I get that you need to do this for work," He told her. "And I'm okay with that. But…I'm going to miss you." He sniffed.

"I'm going to miss you more," She informed him.

"Nu-uh," He challenged.

"Yeah-huh," She told him, poking his side.

"No," He insisted with a laugh.

"Yes!"

"No, no, no…"

"Yes, yes, yes…Are you all packed?" She asked suddenly.

"I think so. Are you?"

Olivia laughed, "I think I am."

Just then, someone knocked on the apartment door. "That must be Elliot," Olivia told Calvin, making her way towards the door. Calvin followed her.

She unlocked and pulled open the door and sure enough, there stood her partner. "Hey," He greeted warmly.

"Come on in," Olivia told him, pulling the door open further.

"You all packed?" Elliot asked Calvin.

"Yeah, mom, where's my bag?"

"In my room, in front of the closet," Olivia told him. He jogged to go grab it.

Elliot turned to her, "How are you?"

"Nervous," She admitted.

"About the job or leaving Calvin?"

She opened her mouth to answer when Calvin came back in, his duffle back slung over his shoulder, and dragging his backpack along the ground with his hands.

"Here let me help you with that," Elliot told him, relieving him of his duffle bag.

"Thanks," Calvin responded, flashing him a grateful smile. He turned to Olivia. "Guess it's time to say bye now, huh?"

"Probably." She opened her arms for a hug. Calvin dropped his backpack and wrapped his arms around her waist tightly, burying his face against her shoulder. Olivia blinked back tears as she pressed her face into his hair. "You behave, alright?"

"Promise," He told her smiling slightly as he pulled back. "You be careful."

"I will."

"Catch the bad guy fast," He told her, picking back up his back pack.

"I'll do my best, Cal."

"Always have you gun."

"Got it."

"Elliot, do you have anything to add?" Calvin asked him.

"Nope, I think you covered it all," He said with a grin.

Calvin gave Olivia another quick hug.

"You ready?" Elliot asked him.

Calvin nodded and waved at Olivia as he and Elliot walked out the door. "See you when you get back!"

"Bye. I love you!"

"Love you too, mom." He walked down the hallway.

Elliot turned to her before pulling the door closed. "Call me if you need anything. I don't care if you're halfway across the US or if it's the middle or the night, if you need me, I'm there."

She smiled at her partner. "Thanks, El, I will. Bye."

"Bye," He told her with a soft smile before pulling the door shut.

Olivia locked the door before turning and leaning against the door with a sigh. I just hope I'm not gone long, She thought.
