I am sooooo sorry I didn't update sooner. I know I told you guys that I would be update more often but I got busy with school and exams and papers. I am out of school for the summer now so I am hoping to have more time to write. Hopefully you guys are sticking with me and the story.

Disclaimer: I own nothing…sadly.

A few weeks had passed since Olivia and Elliot found out that they were expecting again. They had their first doctor's appointment and everything seemed fine. Much to Liv's distaste, they decided to tell everyone at the precinct their good news, which meant Liv had been put on ass duty. But Maddie was by far the most excited to have what she was sure was a little sister to play with.

"How long now Mommy?" looking up from her dinner plate.

Olivia looked at Elliot who was trying his hardest not to laugh at the question Maddie had been asking every chance she got "Maddie, honey, we talked about this remember? The baby has to get big in my belly and then it will come. That takes months. It won't be for a while."

Maddie nodded and was quiet for a moment before she got baby fever all over again. "I can't wait to play with her. We can play dress up and have tea parties. Oh and I can do her hair."

This time it was Elliot who tried to explain how having a baby worked. "Munchkin, the baby might be a boy. You could have a little brother in there."

"But boys are icky. I think the baby should be a girl." Maddie was clearly not going to accept the possibility of having a baby brother.

By this time everyone was finished with dinner. Olivia stood up from the table and grabbed the plates from the table. She then turned to Maddie. "Alright little lady, you have to clean your room if you want Sophia to come over tonight."

"My room is clean." Maddie looked up at her mother.

Elliot finished putting the rest of the dishes left on the table in the sink and turned to Maddie. "Mad, your mother said to clean your room. Go clean it." Maddie let out an agitated breath and went upstairs.

Olivia turned to Elliot with a smirk on her face "You know she has your attitude." Olivia wrapped her arms around Elliot's neck.

"Well she is stubborn too. I wonder where she got that." Elliot countered grabbing her hips.

"See that is where you're wrong because I'm not stubborn"

"Yeah you are. Once you've made up your mind there is no changing it."

"Well I once made up my mind that we would stay strictly friends, but I changed my mind.

Olivia, Alex and Casey were sitting at the table having lunch. Casey and Alex had been badgering Olivia with questions about her relationship with Elliot. Unfortunately they were getting nowhere.

"At least give him a chance. That is all I'm asking you to do." Alex pleaded.

"I already told both of you, I am not jeopardizing our friendship to make you two happy. If it didn't work out with us, I would lose him as a friend and I can't let that happen. He means way too much to me." Olivia looked both of the girls in the eye.

This time it was Casey's turn to try to get Olivia to see things their way. "Are afraid he doesn't have feelings for you? Because we all know he does. You can tell just by the way he looks at you. And your eyes light up when you talk about him."

Alex looked at Casey then said the one thing that got Olivia's attention, "And we, uh, we think you're kind of perfect for each other. Besides you're just in love with him as he is with you."

Olivia looked up from her plate at Alex. Her eyes were locked on Alex's for a minute before she finally spoke "You.. what did you say?"

Alex took a deep breath before she spoke "Come on. It's so obvious. You two are in love with each other. When two people feel this strongly for one another there is no way it wouldn't work."

Everyone was quiet for a moment. Casey broke the awkward silence that had consumed the table. "Liv, Can you just promise me one thing?"

Olivia looked at Casey. "What?"

"If he asks you out on a date or something, just say yes. And if you don't have an amazing time, then forget it happened and go back to being friends. No harm, no foul. Will you do that for me?"

"Yeah. Yeah, I can do that." What Olivia didn't was that under the table Alex had sent Elliot a text message.

Elliot lifted Olivia onto the counter and settled between her legs. "So you changed your mind, huh?"

"Yeah I did."

Elliot leaned in and began to kiss along her jawline. "And how did that work out for you?" Elliot pulled back to look in her eyes.

Olivia looked deep into Elliot's eyes and whispered "It was the best decision I ever made." She leaned in and captured his lips in what started out as a sweet kiss but ended up becoming passionate. They were interrupted by the doorbell followed to the sound of footsteps on the stairs. "Ready to spend the weekend with two 5 year olds?"

Elliot laughed "Is it too late to change our minds?"

"I think so"

"I'll go get the door." Elliot kissed her once more and went to open the door before Maddie got to it. "Maddie don't open the door. Let me do it." He opened the door and was almost knocked out of the way as the two girls ran towards each other.

Casey walked in once it was safe and greeted Elliot and Olivia who was walking into the foyer. "Hey Elliot, hey Liv, and baby Stabler." she looked down at Olivia's stomach.

Both Elliot and Olivia answered at the same time "Hey Casey"

"Guys I want to apologize in advance. Greg let her get into the candy jar and God only knows how much she ate. So be warned."

Olivia laughed "Its alright Case. We can handle it."

"Alright. Well I will see you guys tomorrow. Good Luck."

Olivia walked Casey to the door. "Thanks. See you later."

Elliot walked into the living room to see Maddie and Sophia standing on the sofa. "Oh no. Girls you know you're not supposed to stand on the couch." He grabbed them both and lifted one girl over each shoulder. He walked back into the foyer where Olivia was finishing locking the door. "Hey Liv, we got a couple of rule breakers."

"Hmm. Well what do you suppose we do with them?"

Giggles of the two girls filled the house. "Well we could let them go."

Maddie tapped Elliot's back. "Daddy, let us go."

Olivia appeared to be thinking it over. "Yeah, or we could tickle them."

Sophia looked at Maddie. "Aunt Livvy, no"

Olivia walked up to Elliot and began tickling the girls. Soon the house was filled with squeals and giggles. Olivia finally stopped tickling thing. "Alright babe. I think they've learned their lesson. Put them down."

Elliot lowered the girls down to the floor. "Alright. You two are safe for now. Maddie, can you and Sophie go play in your room? And take Soph's bag with you."

"Okay Daddy" The girls went upstairs talking the whole way up.
