Chapter 3

I'm probably going to get this story up fast Im having too much fun writing it. :)

As Always Read and Review :)

Elliot stayed with Olivia all night under direct orders of his father stating threat of attack. After getting an arrest warrant from downtown, Elliot's father and his partner went to her house to retrieve Serena Benson, on the charges of Child Abuse and negligence.

Although Elliot stayed with Olivia, he was continually getting calls from Kathy. He couldn't turn his phone off due to the fact that his father needed to get a hold of him. After about the fiftieth ring, he opened the phone and told her to stop. She tried six more times and then it just stopped.

The door opened at midnight and revealed Detectives Stabler and Cragen, "Detectives, What is it?"

"Dad?"

"Olivia, we went to your house to execute an arrest warrant." Joe said lightly.

"And? Where's my mother?"

"She wasn't there, only this note." Cragen fished out a note and handed it to her, Elliot stood to read it along with her.

Scribbled on the paper towel note that had vodka spots all over it, was 'You'll pay this time.'

Olivia started becoming agitated and Elliot took her hand in his. "She's coming after me?"

"We believe so."

"What am I supposed to do? The doctors say I can leave in six hours."

Joe Stabler stepped forward. "You are to come home with me and Elliot. Yes, its right next door but I am assured that the house will be protected at all times, and my wife Bernie has agreed to take you in."

"Mr. Stabler, I don't want to be a burden at all…"

"We don't mind Olivia, but you need to stay safe." She nodded and smiled up at Eliot who still held her hand protectively.

Six hours went by and the detectives left again to join the search, while Olivia and Elliot slept in her guarded room. She decided to get as much sleep as possible, before going to the Stabler's.

At six on the dot, Joe Stabler walked in and saw Olivia sleeping peacefully and Elliot sitting in the chair with his head lying on the bed. He smiled.

The doctor arrived and gently woke Olivia. "Miss Benson."

"Yeah, Doc?"

"You're free to go. However I want you to take it easy, you side is still tender." Olivia nodded as Elliot was beginning to wake up.

"Thank you doctor."

"Your welcome." The doctor smiled and left the Stablers and Olivia in the room.

"Alright Olivia, we are going to take you home, grab some clothes and get into our house and settled ok?"

"Yep." She moved slowly out of bed with the help of Elliot, he helped her to her feet as she strained to move. Once on her feet, Elliot set a duffel on the bed and smiled.

"I'll be outside the door while you change." Olivia nodded and watched him and his father walk out and shut the door.

Twenty minutes passed before Olivia finally limped out of her hospital room and saw Elliot standing with a wheelchair and his father standing beside him. She gave them a look of why, and Elliot simply answered, "Hospital policy."

She sighed and let Elliot help sit gently into the chair. He got behind her and wheeled them to the entrance. Joe told them to wait and minutes later, was at the entrance with his Pickup.

Elliot and his father helped Olivia into the front seat and Elliot sat in the back, and his dad got in, and they headed back toward Queens.

It was a quiet ride and although Olivia was in pain, she felt gratitude to Joe for trying hard to make the ride as smooth as possible.

Once home, Olivia entered her house guarded by Elliot, Joe, and two uniformed officers. She walked up the stairs carefully and took it one step at a time.

Elliot and Olivia entered her room and to Elliot it was the first time he had seen it, from this perspective. Olivia walked to the closet and tried to pull out a duffel. "Here let me help you."

"Thank you, Elliot." He retrieved the duffel and opened it, placing it on the end of the bed. She walked to the dresser and pulled out a load of socks, underwear and bras, stuffing them in the duffel, trying to hide them from the view of Elliot.

She walked back to the closet and pulled out shirts and pants, and her favorite track suit and tennis shoes stuffing them in the bag as well. She also grabbed a few of her trinkets and important things. Remembering her backpack, she looked to Elliot and asked him where it was.

"It's at my house; my mother went to the school and retrieved mine and yours."

"Oh okay, cool." She zipped up her duffel and attempted to lift it resulting in a searing pain running through her side. She yelped in pain, and fell to the floor. Elliot fell with her, and lay an arm across her back I an attempt to comfort her.

"Olivia?"

"I…I'm…I'm alright…just shouldn't…have done that." Olivia staggered.

"It's okay, I'll take it for you, I don't mind. Olivia I'm here for you. Don't forget the doctor told you to take it easy."

Olivia smiled, "How do you remember, you were asleep, when he told me that?"

"Do you really think I was asleep?"

Olivia laughed, "I guess not."

"Let me help you up." Elliot helped her to her feet, and picked up the heavy duffel. He helped her down the stairs and into his house where she was met by who she assumed was Bernie Stabler, his mother and two other teenagers.

"Welcome to our home, Olivia." The elderly woman came up and shook her hand. "I'm Bernie; this is Meredith and Jake, Elliot's brother and sister."

"We have set up a mattress in Elliot's room for the time being, I'm sorry to say we tried to place you in Meredith's room, but she absolutely refused." Bernie stared at Meredith and she shrugged. Meredith was the typical cheerleader who cared more about her nails than the life of a human being. She was an idiot and looked as if she was forced to stand here and invite a guest she cared nothing about.

Jake, who was slightly older than Elliot and looked as if he was either a sophomore or junior in college, came up and shook Olivia's hand, "Hey welcome Olivia, nice to meet you."

"You too, Jake." Olivia looked at the recliner next to them and then up to Elliot, who nodded.

"Mom, I got to sit her down, she's in pain."

"Oh absolutely. I'm sorry." Elliot helped her to the recliner and set her down carefully and put up the foot rest so she laid back n a comfortable position.

"Thank you."

"Anytime, Liv. I'm just going to go sit this stuff upstairs in my room, okay?" She nodded and watched Elliot take the stairs three at a time and return a mere 6 seconds later. He sat on the couch next to her, and turned on the TV.

A few minutes later, Elliot looked up from the TV and noticed Olivia had fallen asleep. He turned it down a little and gently placed one of his mothers' Afghans over her. He kissed her cheek and sat back down and changed it to the football game.
