Olivia opened her eyes. The light shone brightly through the window onto the bed. She was alone in the bed and Elliot wasn't in his. She could hear the shower going so she got up, slid on her hoddie over her tank and grabed a cup of coffee that had been made. She made her way to the patio door and slid them open. She nearly jump out of her skin when she saw Alex sitting on the patio swing.
"Hey Lex."
" Hey... you have a good sleep?"
"Yea. You?"
"Mhmm."
"Beautiful view!" Olivia exclaimed as she sat next to Alex looking at the ocean view.
"Yes I know. I am excited to go swimming in there."
"Me too."
"So how far?" Alex asked.
"How far what?"
"Along?"
"What?" Olivia asked nervously.
"Liv... I know. I felt it last night."
Olivia looked down at her coffee. "Six Months."
"Awe Livie! Does anyone else know?"
"I don't think so. Except for my doctor." Tears came to Olivia's eyes.
"What's wrong liv?"
Moments passed before she finally spoke. "My mother didn't have a choice. It was a crime to abort your child. I did. I had a choice but I just couldn't find myself to do it."
"Livvie why would you want to. You've always wanted a child. Plus the only times you've ever agreed to Abortion is if the baby was going to live a horrible life or if someone had been raped...." Alex looked at Olivia and saw her lip quiver, "Olivia... who's the father?"
"Olivia?" Alex repeated
"His name is Lowell. Lowell Harris. He was a prison guard at Rikers. There were many complaints about him raping the women there and another young girl outside of the prison. I went in undercover. I was taken down to the storage room twice. The last time Fin, who was under with me saved me from him raping me.... again. But the first time he took me down he followed through."
"All the hoddies and yoga pants,"Alex wrapped her arms around Olivia as she began to weep. "Livvie, I am so sorry! So sorry! But you know what? You are going to love your child. This child is a part of you. And this child is going to learn a grow like you. You have the power to make this child however you want. I already know this child is going to be amazing. Your amazing. And I will be with you the whole way!"
A couple more minutes and they finally broke apart.
"Thank-you." Olivia smiled for the first time when talking about it.
"So other than the father how does it feel?"
"Amazing!"
"Thats great."
"Ya. Can we call Melinda?" Olivia asked.
"Um yea sure let's go."
Olivia, Alex, and Melinda went to the buffet by the pool so they could talk. They were going to hit the beach later and meet the guys.
"So? How was yours guys's sleep?" Melinda asked.
"Good yours?" Alex answered.
"Cragen snored all night! And loud!" Melinda rolled her eyes.
They had a laugh," But what was so important that the guys couldn't come?"
Olivia took a deep breath.
"I'm Pregnant."
"What?"
Olivia told her the whole story.
"I knew there was something wrong. But when I asked you, you could have told me."
"I know Mel... I am sorry I just.."
"Liv no its me.. I'm sorry."
"It's not your fault."
"oh god we are starting this again!" Alex laughed her eyes tearing up as well as the others.
They all laughed and finished their food. They went down to the beach and found the guys.
"Hey Livvie aren't you hot?" Elliot asked fanning himself.
Olivia sat in some black yoga pants and a light jacket.
"No." She lied.
"Okay..."
The spent the day at the beach and pool. The girls stayed together tanning on the beach even though Olivia told them to go and do what they want. They didn't even go swimming.
The squad was going to meet at a steakhouse that the resort had told them too. They were told to dress nice and be there no sooner than 7:00. They were all dressed up nice and early so they decided to walk.
When they got to the steak house they were lead to the banquet room.
"surprise!"
At least 100 people were standing in the room yelling.
Captain Cragen explained to his detectives that these were some people from New York vacationing here. They were here to thank the detectives.
They had a wonderful supper and danced for a long time. Then they decided to go for a midnight dip and then back to the room. They all settled in and went to sleep. The next morning the boys went down to the beach before the girls so they could save some seats.
Melinda was sitting on the bed waiting for everyone.
Olivia walked out in yoga pants and a light jacket again.
"Livvie. You know every single one of us is going to support you. I think you should wear what your are comfortable in. Liv?" Melinda encouraged her.
After a few minutes Olivia grabbed a few things out of her suitcase and went back into the bathroom.
She came back out wearing her light jacket and a pair of khaki shorts. Cuts and scars from the guards knife and the stitches, were still visable.
"Wow! Liv! Let's go show Det. Hottie how sexy you are. Seriously you should wear shorts to work!" Alex laughed.
They walked down to the beach the guys were playing catch and talking. The girls set their stuff down
