Sorry it's taken me a little bit… I've been starting a few other stories that I'll post in a couple days!
Back home in the precinct of the Special Victims Unit, all the detectives sat at their desks, working hard as the Captain pondered what Elliot and Olivia could have done that made Dean so upset.
Olivia heard a little beep that brought her back to planet earth.
She looked up to her email and saw she had one new message from Elliot. Why couldn't he just talk to her? She was sitting right in front of him.
Those were her thoughts until she opened the message, then she knew why he didn't just speak.
Livvy,
What happened in California, you couldn't have seen it coming. I know you think it was your fault, and don't you deny that, but baby there's nothing anyone could have done about it. Just know I love you. Nothing's ever going to change that.
She felt tears build up in her eyes, but she had to hold them back.
Olivia glanced over at her partner who stared straight back. They had a brief moment where no one else existed, just them.
When Elliot saw her open her mouth to talk he just shook his head and looked at her computer.
She sighed and began typing.
El you can't tell me this isn't my fault. If I hadn't ran away to California or given into my feelings for you, you wouldn't have gotten shot in the first place. But you're fine, and our relationship couldn't be better. We need to focus on more current issues such as catching that bastard Dean and you talking to Kathy…
Elliot didn't want to think about that conversation he had to have with his soon to be ex-wife later that day. He knew Olivia felt guilty for all this but she was prepared to move on and so was he. At least until their next little drama began.
You're right as always honey. That was all he could reply before Cragen walked into the bullpen and announced, "You all can go home. There are no leads on any cases and it's getting late. I think we all deserve a break." He looked specifically at Elliot and Olivia.
With that everyone was out of there in seconds, once again leaving the lovebirds alone.
"You want a ride home?" Elliot asked.
"No I'm good. You have to get home and talk to your beloved wife," Olivia said with a wink.
"You're so lucky I love you," he laughed.
"Hey! You think its easy being the 'other woman'," Olivia joked.
"I think you have it a lot easier than I do here, Liv," he chuckled, pulling her closer to him.
"Good point. I love you El," she whispered as she made the gaps between them disappear.
All their worries and cares were gone for those short moments that their bodies were one.
"Wish me luck," Elliot winced at the thought.
Olivia just smiled and the two walked out together.
"Finally," Cragen said to himself from his office.
Olivia and Elliot hadn't noticed he was still there, or that he'd been watching the whole time.
"Those two will be the end of me," Cragen laughed as he grabbed his coat and left.
**********EO**********
"HE WHAT?" Kathy screamed.
"I'm sorry to tell you this ma'am, uh Kathy, but I saw it with my own eyes," Dean said with a false act of disappointment.
"I knew it! I knew he was cheating on me with that slutty bitch he calls a partner!" she said with her anger rising quicker than thought possible.
"Kathy may I offer you a way to get back?" Dean asked, standing up and moving closer to her.
"Please. I'd do anything to get back at that little," Kathy was cut off by Dean who stopped her before she could swear anymore.
"Olivia took one of your most precious things away from you, why don't you take away her most valuable allies," he smirked pulling out a small handgun.
Kathy looked stunned he would give her such an idea.
"Come on. Olivia would be miserable and she'd be alone in the world," he smiled. He just wanted her life to be as terrible as possible for his own sick amusement.
"But she'd still have my Elliot. He'd comfort that little bitch," Kathy said.
"Your Elliot? He's obviously not that anymore. He picked Olivia over you more than once. He went to California with her and didn't even think to call you. If I were you, I'd want revenge."
"You're right. Give me that," she said grabbing the gun. "I'll handle this."
"Good girl. Now the best way to handle this is if I take care of Cragen and Munch. You get Fin and Elliot," Dean spoke, brain-washing Kathy into his own little robot.
"Smart," she said as she heard a car door slam. "That's him! You can get out the back, hurry! I'll meet with you Saturday to discuss where we go after this" Kathy whispered pushing him out.
She threw the gun into the fruit bowl and covered it up. He'd never even touch that thing, he hated fruit.
"Kathy we need to talk," Elliot spoke with no emotion.
"Oh ok honey. What is it," she said as if she has no idea what was going on.
She pulled him down onto the couch with her so they were sitting side by side.
He looked in her eyes and began his story.
"Kathy I'm sorry to hurt you, but I'm in love with Olivia. And we both know this marriage has been over for a long time. I'm so incredibly happy with her and I know you aren't anywhere near happy with this marriage. I think we should end it now," Elliot said waiting for the fireworks.
"You're right," she said looking into his eyes.
Her answer surprised him, was it really going to be that easy?
"You're right that this marriage ended a long time ago. I hope you're happy with Olivia, Elliot," she said walking up to "their" bedroom.
She spoke again. "I think it'd be best if you didn't sleep here tonight."
"Ok. I umm, we'll meet soon about the divorce papers?" he asked.
The word divorce hit her hard enough to knock her over and back down the stairs, but she held strong. She had a plan.
"Ya, ok. Whatever," she said shutting the door to, now her, bedroom.
Elliot walked out and started his car. He called Olivia.
"Benson," she said.
"Hey it's Elliot, drop to cop act," he laughed.
"Oh sorry, didn't check the caller I.D.," she giggled slightly embarrassed.
"Ya can I come over?" he asked.
"Oh uh, ya sure. Did you already talk to Kathy?" she said.
"I did. She said she understood and she hopes were happy. I think something's wrong with her. Our talks are never that easy," he skeptically said.
"Maybe she has a plan to get back at us," Olivia joked.
"Oh come on. She's not capable of revenge," he stated. Oh how wrong he was.
"Good point. Well you just get your ass over here and we'll get your mind off… her…" Olivia said seductively.
"Sounds good to me baby. I'll be there in a second," he said.
"Ok you just hurry. I don't like waiting," she laughed.
"You just hold on a couple…." he was cut off by a screeching of the tires below him.
Olivia went silent when she heard a crashing noise.
Elliot's car had gotten out of his control and crashed into a deli. He took another car with him into the building.
"El? El are you there? Hello? El answer me!" Olivia began screaming into her cell phone.
…. No response.
"El please!" she yelled.
There was only one way he could have taken to get to her house. She grabbed a sweatshirt and pulled it over her head as she began running down the staircase.
She kept screaming into the phone until she heard the sirens and saw the unreal scene.
Elliot's car was halfway into the deli and crunched. There was another car lodged between a telephone pole and the corner of the building. There was no movement in either car.
Olivia dropped her phone into her pocket and ran as fast as she could up to Elliot's car. She looked down to see a blood-soaked seat.
"Ma'am you can't be here," a police officer said trying to pull her away.
"No wait I'm a cop," she said hysterically pulling out her badge.
"Oh oh I'm sorry. Do you know the man who was in this car?" the young man asked.
"It's my partner's car. Is he ok?" she said shaking to poor boy.
"When we got here he was already in the ambulance. From the quick glance I got it didn't look good," he said with a sorry look in his eyes.
"How did this happen," Olivia stuttered.
"From what we've found there's a bullet in one of the tires. It caused the car to spin out of control and caused what you see to happen."
Olivia was speechless. She just looked at the crunched driver's side of the car that belonged to the man she loved. It seemed almost impossible that anyone could live through that. But Elliot would, he had to.
"I think you better go see if he's ok. They took him to Mercy," the man said.
"Th… Thank you," Olivia said and began to run to a parked cab.
"Whose cab is this?" Olivia screamed over the crowd.
"Mine, Miss," a small woman said stepping forward.
"Take me to Mercy. Now!" she yelled.
"Alright, let's go."
Get to Mercy now, there was an accident
She sent the text to Munch, Fin, and Cragen. Little did she know, Cragen and Munch wouldn't get the text.
Fin only had a small window of opportunity to get out of his apartment before it was almost too late for him as well.
OMG I'm leaving you guys hanging with this one… Are Cragen and Munch dead? Am I that evil to do that? Will Elliot survive the accident? How will Olivia cope with all this pain at once? Will Fin be ok? What has the world come to?
Please review and make me a very happy writer 3
Leave me ideas of what you want to happen next!
