Disclaimer: If I owned Fringe...Olivia would be on the right side and with Peter.

They day grew weary for Olivia, she constantly had a water bottle in hand and it surprised her that after a day searching a cornfield for evidence, that her back was hurting. She'd never felt as drained as she did, of course Walter's answer was simple…energy usage of her abilities, they drained part of her energy.

That evening however she retreated to a hot shower before settling onto the bed where Peter sat reviewing notes and files, sending some to Massive Dynamic for review. He was currently on video with Brandon.

"Alright, tell me what you got with those blood samples…any DNA?"

Brandon nodded and smiled, "yeah, hi Olivia."

"Brandon, so what DNA did you find?"

The man pulled a board nearby, "DNA had three different species…human, wolf and bear, we managed to break down the percentage and then single out the human DNA to run a DNA Search."

"Did you get a match?"

"Sending it now, if they have a fax machine were you are, I can fax you the results."

Peter nodded, "just enter the data into the Massive Dynamic achieve, I'll look it up when we need it. Goodnight Brandon." He closed off and shut the laptop, placing the files on it before setting it aside on the table. "Great, another monster…this time has all the protective and dangerous qualities."

Olivia groaned and rubbed her back, Peter looked at her and she shook her head. "Working in the field all day, was it really necessary for Walter to require me there?"

"No but that's Walter, turn onto your stomach…I'll take care of your back."

Olivia did as he asked and soon felt as if magic had been performed, her back was beginning to feel better under his finger tips. He kneaded each kink, massaged her sure muscles and worked his way up her back to help her relax. "Where did you learn to do this?"

"I have many talents and this is one of them," he moved her wet hair aside, starting on her shoulders. "No one taught me, magical talent."

"Magic is correct," she smiled and closed her eyes, "I may fall asleep."

Peter chuckled and continued, "go ahead, you deserve sleep."

Olivia was quiet for a while, "thank you for this morning…I keep thinking if you hadn't…"

"Shh," he stopped, having finished but got up and walked to her bag. Olivia turned her head to see him pulling out her brush, coming back over with it. "I told you we'd get through this together and I'm not going anywhere."

Olivia smiled as he began brushing her hair, reaching over after a while to place the brush on the side table beside her water.

"Get some sleep Olivia and try not to teleport again in the middle of the night."

Olivia woke during the night to another nightmare, she was relieved however to find that she was still in the hotel room. Peter was asleep next to her, on his side facing her, she curled up into him and he woke from the movement.

"Go back to sleep." He kissed her head and placed an arm around her, Olivia snuggled up to him and closed her eyes. "I'm here Sweetheart."

She shook her head, "I can't get it out of my head…all the torture your father put me through."

Peter kissed her head and tightened his arm around her, "he's not my father, my father would know never to hurt you…the most precious thing in the universe, both universes, to me. My future wife, the mother of my children…if he was really my father, he would have helped you get home not do what he did."

"Are you calling Walter your father?" She turned onto her side and looked at him, "because if you are, I think I need to call CNN."

He smirked, "oh you think that's funny, huh. I'll show you funny!" He pushed her back into the mattress and began assaulting her joints, she squirmed as he tickled her. Olivia laughed and tried to get away but he had her pinned down.

After a while Peter stopped and leaned down, kissing her. He moved away and Olivia rolled over into his arms. "We're going to miss that concert."

"I already called for a reimbursement, when we got the case." He kissed her head and looked down when her hand caught his. "Tell me about what happened over there."

"For a week it was solitary confinement, no light…just darkness. The whole time tests, after tests were preformed on me. Then one day he came in with the doctor and they gave me a sedative, when I woke up I was in the cell again…I hadn't been moved…as if they drugged me for the fun of it.

"Week two came and they took me to a lab, giving me some type of concoction, I think it was her memories…the brainwashing. They made it too easy to escape and I did but the whole time I fought for my sanity. I remembered things that weren't mine to remember till finally I was her.

"I was her for three weeks before the tests started, I crossed over and called Ella on her birthday. I knew then who I was and I fought to return and did. Every time I close my eyes I see that dark room again."

Peter shook his head, "you're never going back there." He pulled her close and Olivia curled into him. "You're home and safe and you have everyone fighting for you."

Closing her eyes, Olivia allowed herself to be lulled to sleep by his heartbeat…the sound of home and she'd always see her home as Peter's arms from that moment forward. He was her safety net, her lifeline and more importantly the man she loved far more then she had ever loved anyone before.

A/N: Next Olivia finds out something life changing and before you suspect this will be like my other ones...no she isn't pregnant. However she will push Peter away when she finds out that life changing news...it'll cut deep down into the plans from chapter 12.
