Chapter 4
The nurse finished the rape kit on Beverly Jones. The uniform took the kit to the ME's office. Melinda ran the tests and didn't find anything. The detectives were frustrated. And now they have IAB on their back.
It has been a week since the live victim was questioned. Three more victims have dropped. There is no evidence, so the detectives are back to square one.
Cragen ordered Dan and Olivia to travel to California to see if they had any evidence.
Olivia walked into the hotel room and laid on her queen size bed. There was a knock on the door that ajar her room to the one next to her.
"Come in!" She yelled only loud enough for Dean to hear her. She was exhausted. She had just finished going through at least fifty rape kits. There was no real evidence in any of them so far. The rapist used a chief's knife to stab the women.
"Hey Live. You're back for the day?" Dean asked walking in. He smiled wide when he saw her stretched across the bed.
Dean had managed to pamper Olivia up and she was happy. They had been dating the whole time since he got to New York. Elliot had to try anything to stop himself from knocking Dean out.
"Yeah, back for the day. I didn't find anything." Olivia responded kicking her shoes off and rubbed her eyes.
Dean walked over to the bed and sat down close to her feet. He started to rub her feet. Olivia bent her head back into the pillow. It felt so good.
"You will find something." Dean responded as he got aroused rubbing her feet.
Just then Olivia's cell rang. She grabbed it out of her pocket and looked at the caller id. Elliot's name ran across it. She smiled a little.
"Hey!" Olivia responded sitting up.
From the way she was acting Dean knew who it was right away. His blood started to boil.
"Hey Liv! How are things going?" Elliot asked looking at her picture on his desk. She was his dream.
"Not so great. We did not find any evidence what so ever. We will probably leave tomorrow or Saturday. How are things going over there?" Olivia responded running her free hand through her hair.
"Saturday," Dean whispered as he started working up her leg.
"Dean said we are coming back Saturday. Did you question Beverly again? Maybe she remembers something." Olivia responded into the cell phone.
"Hey Baby girl!" Fin says in the background on Elliot's side.
"Tell Fin and Much I said Hi."
"I will. Well I will call you later. I am hoping to close this case."
"Okay Elliot. Bye." Olivia hangs up the phone and lies back against the pillow.
Olivia closes her eyes and Elliot runs inter her mind within seconds. She is imagining Elliot rubbing her feet. She smiles as Elliot whispers sweet romantic words. She licks her lips.
Dean was a little confused. He climbs from the end of the bed and lightly places his lips on hers. She smiles against his lips, kissing him lightly. She wraps her arms around his neck and pulls him in close.
"Mmm El…"
"ELLIOT!" Dean snaps to a sitting position.
Olivia opens her eyes and searches Dean's face. He is steaming,.
"You BITCH! What is it about Elliot?" Dean slaps her across the face. She rapidly throws her left hand to her now throbbing cheek. She was totally caught off guard. The tears lightly weld up in her eyes threaten to stream down her cheeks.
"Why is it always Elliot? What is it about him?" Dean yells at her slapping her across the other cheek.
Olivia wonders what had gotten into him. "Dean…I'm…sorry." She whispers through her clenched teeth.
Dean's eyes soften when he sees the tears.
"I am sorry." Dean wraps his arms around her.
Olivia flinches lightly. Dean starts to cry on her shoulder. She was confused. Was he really sorry?
Olivia didn't know what to do now. She didn't want to set him off again. She spent enough time with abusers to know not to set them off. But she was falling in love with him. Or at least what she thought was love. The only person that ever really loved her was Elliot.
Dean slightly backed away and kissed her lightly. Baby I am sorry. I love you with all my heart." Dean whispered in her ear romantically. "Sleep with me?"
Olivia was a little shocked. She knew that he didn't mean to. She just nodded.
After a half hour of intercourse they fell asleep in the same bed.
Elliot and Fin went over to Beverly Jones apartment to question her again. Fin knocked on her door three times. Beverly's mother, Kristina opened the door slightly with the chain still locked.
"May I help you?" she asked as Fin showed her his police badge.
"We are detective's from Special Victims Unit. I am Detective Fin and this is my partner Detective Stabler. We are here to see Beverly." Fin responded putting away his badge.
Kristina closed the door and undid the chain. She opened the door, "Come in detectives."
Elliot and fin walked into her apartment and into the living room. Kristina pointed to the couches. The detectives sat down.
"I will go get her." Kristina told the detectives and went to retrieve Beverly. Kristina and Beverly returned a second or so later. Elliot and Fin stood up when she entered the room.
"Beverly we would like to ask you some questions about your rape." Elliot asked grabbing his notepad out.
Beverly sat on the love seat across from the detectives and just nodded.
"Beverly can you tell us anything about his cop uniform or badge?" Elliot asked.
Beverly scrunched up her face. "It was…"
"Did you see what it said on the badge?" Fin asked.
"All I know is that it wasn't a New York Police officer,. I think his badge was federal or something." Beverly tried to riddle her brain for more information.
"It we show you pictures of badges could you pick it out?" Elliot asked pulling out the pictures.
Beverly nodded slightly. Elliot showed her the pictures of all the badges. Beverly looked from one picture to the next. Hundreds of badges. Florida, New Jersey, Ohio, Maryland, California and so on. After she went through what felt like 100s, she stopped at one. She pointed rapidly at one. Then handed it to Elliot.
"This one?" Elliot asked showing it to Fin. Fin looked totally surprised.
"This is the badge your rapist showed you?" Fin asked showing her the picture of the badge. Beverly just nodded.
"So you are telling me an FBI agent raped you? If we show you pictures of officers can you think you will be able toi point him out?" Elliot asked taking note of the badge on his notepad.
"Yes I can. I will never forget him. He haunts my dreams." She started to cry. Her mother wrapped her arms around her and brushed her hand through Beverly's hair.
"Can you come to the station and look through photos right now?" Elliot asked.
Beverly shock her head yes and went to get her purse and jacket. Elliot and Fin waited with Kristina until Beverly came back. When Beverly came back Elliot let Kristina know that they will bring her back when they are done.
Elliot, Fin and Beverly walked into the squad room. Fin showed her to the interrogation room right next to Cragen's office.
"Can I get you something? Coffee, soda?" Fin asked standing at the door trying to find something to hold it open.
Coffee would be great if you have it. Milk and two sugars." Beverly sat down in one of the chairs.
Fin walked out into the squad room leaving the door open so that she would feel comfortable. Elliot went and got the album of Federal police officer pictures. He was still shocked to find out that it was a federal police officer,. Elliot walked into the interrogation room a minute after Fin with the album. He put the book in front of Beverly and sat across from her.
"Now Beverly take your time and look at each picture carefully." Elliot told her leaning back into the chair.
Meanwhile, back in California Olivia had just woken up from a frightening dream. In her dream Dean was beating her for always going to Elliot. Olivia turned her head and saw Dean sleeping next to her. She lightly rolled out of bed making sure not to wake him. She walked into the bathroom and locked the door.
She felt disgusting! She couldn't believe that she slept with someone who hit her. What was she doing? She turned on the fosite and washed her face. Trying to scrub the kisses off her face.
She turned on the shower and undressed. Olivia stepped in and placed her face under the running water. The water was hot enough to see steam come from it but not hot enough to burn anyone. Pictures were flashing through her head as the water washed away the feeling of Dean. She felt stupid for sleeping with Dean and finally realizing whom she really wanted. She wanted Elliot. Why had it taken her this long to realize it?
Beverly looked from one picture to the next. Elliot thought they would never find the guy. He didn't believe she could remember after all this time. It had felt like they had been on this case for a year with no evidence to go on. Would she be able to identify her perpetrator?
Elliot and Fin looked from one another wondering if they would get anything from Beverly. Beverly finally came across the picture of the man who molested her. She jumped out of her seat and walked backwards against the wall. Her breathing had picked up pace and see couldn't look at the picture. Elliot quickly got up to make sure she was okay.
"Are you alright ma'am?" Elliot asked putting a gentle hand on her shoulder. She flinched at the feeling of his hand. "It's okay! You are safe!" Elliot whispered softly as she collapsed into his chest.
Fin took the album and looked at the picture that Beverly had picked out. When he saw the picture his eyes widened. "Oh My God! Elliot you have to look at who it is!" Fin said a little loud through gritting teeth.
Elliot slowly walked Beverly to her chair and placed her into it trying not to startle her. Elliot went over to Fin and took the photo album from him. He looked down at the picture and his mood changed in an instant. He balled his hands into fist and you could see all the blood vanes in his forehead. He walked over to the file cabinet and punched it as hard as possible. Beverly jumped from the loud noice.
Fin walked up behind Elliot and lightly placed a hand on his shoulder. Fin knew better then to approach him but he wanted to get Elliot out of the room. Elliot turned around with so much anger in his eyes he looked like he could lift Fin up and throw him across the room. Fin just pointed out to the squad room and Elliot obeyed.
Elliot walked into the squad room and walked over to his desk. He took his arm and whipped everything off his desk with a loud motion. He pulled out his cell phone and called the airport. He got a flight out to California for an hour from now. Then he called Cragen.
"Hello?" Cragen answered sleepishly.
"Captain. We have to go to California."
"Why? Olivia is there. She can handle it."
"No our rapist is there. Just trust me on his one. I will bring him back. Fin will go with me to make sure I don't kill him before I bring him back." Elliot responded with so much anger in his voice.
"Fine. But be quick. I want to keep IAB out of this for now."
"Thanks Captain."
Elliot hung up the phone and started dialing Olivia's number.
Olivia was so caught up in her thoughts that she almost didn't realize her phone was ringing. She stuck her head out of the shower and answered quickly hoping it wouldn't wake Dean up.
"Benson!"
"Liv it's Elliot. We are coming to get you!"
"Why? I am not in trouble or anything." Olivia asked confused on why he was being so secretive.
"Olivia just trust me. Oh and stay away from Dean!"
"What? Elliot what the fuck is going on?"
"Stay away from Dean!" Elliot screamed into the phone.
"What are you talking about? Why should I stay away from him?"
"Because he is the rapist!" Elliot screamed.
"W-W-What?" Olivia quickly got out of the shower and rushed to the toilet. She started to throw up the contents in her stomach. Elliot's heart broke from hearing her on the other side of the phone. "Oh My God! I'm going to be sick!" She throws up a second time. Elliot heard a quiet sob coming from her line.
"Liv…Baby are you okay?"
"No! I think I am going to be sick. You mean to tell me that Dean is the rapist?"
With in an instant the bathroom door breaks open with a loud thud. Olivia screams and grabs a towel to put over her. Dean comes through the door with so much rage he could have knocked five doors down. Dean grabs her by the arm and hits her over the face with the other one.
"Dean…Dean Porter!" Elliot screams into the phone. "Don't you dare touch her!"
Olivia screams from a second slap across the face. Dean pulls her up on her feet and pulls her into the hotel room. Dean slaps her around so many times that she drops the phone and it hangs up.
Elliot slams his phone set and runs into the interrogation room.
"Fin we have to go save Olivia. Dean knows." Elliot yells as he runs to get his things.
