Disclaimer: Again, all I own is the baby.
Olivia walked slowly up to the hospital room. Her hands began to tremble as her sweaty hand clutched the knob of the door. She slowly cracked the door open.. peeking inside. She was scared to death of what she was going to see. She pushed the door open a bit more.
"Elliot?" she whispered softly as she walked in to his room.
Elliot moaned slightly "Livia?" he mumbled still half asleep from the anesthetic.
Olivia walked quickly over to his bed side. "Yes honey.. It's me.." she said taking his hand in hers. He looked so tired, so physically exhausted. She blamed herself… the last few months had been hard on both of them. She had started having a lot of nightmares. She would wake up screaming in a cold sweat. And like the wonderful man he was he would wake up at the first sign of a nightmare, reassure her that everything was okay and that she was safe and hold her in his strong muscular arms until she fell back asleep.
Olivia's hair was pulled up in to a messy pony tail, she was in jeans and a hoodie and didn't have a lick of make up on. Her chocolate brown bangs fell down in front of her eyes. Elliot looked up at her. "You're so beautiful.." he said with a tired tone. It was hard for him to talk. Olivia almost broke down right then and there. "Oh yeah…" she said sarcastically with a small laugh. "I look terrible…" she said pulling a chair up to the side of his bed, trying to get as close to him as possible.
"You look beautiful…" he said smiling. He moved up in the bed, trying to find some sort of comfort. Olivia sniffled; a small smile coming across her lips. Just hearing him say that to her made her entire body tingle.
"You scared me Stabler" she said trying to hold back her tears.
"Oh come off it Benson, you know it would take more then a couple bullets to keep my stubborn ass down." he spat out with a grin on his face.
Olivia giggled.. "My God I love you…" she said running her hand up Elliot's arm.
"I love you too baby…" he said squeezing her hand. "You're not getting rid of me that easily." he said chuckling. "So… When are they gonna let me outta here?" he asked, starting to sound like his old self.
"Elliot Stabler, you havent been out of surgery 2 hours and you're already wondering when you get to go home…" Olivia said almost upset.
"Yeah, I'm acting exactly like you would be…" Elliot said giving her a look.
"Touché.." she said with a grin.
"Do you think maybe my wonderful fiancé could go and find out when I get to go home…? Because I don't think this bed is big enough for the two of us baby girl…" Elliot said winking and with a sly grin on his face.
Olivia folded her arms under her chest and grinned, sticking her tongue out at him.
"Pretty please?" he asked
"Okay okay… im going…" she smiled and walked out of the room.
Elliot starred smiling at her curves as she walked out of his room. She was so perfect. He hated the fact that she was still in pain after everything that had happened to her. He wished so badly that he could make all of her pain, all of her demons go away. He could tell it was still eating her away.
E/O3E/O3E/O3E/O3E/O3E/O3E/O3E/O3E/O3E/O3E/O3E/O3E/O3E/O3
Olivia stood at the nurses station.. She placed a hand on her stomach. She had to tell him… she was just so scared. What would he do? Would he be mad? What if the child wasn't his? Would he still love it? She pushed the thought from her mind. Ofcourse he would. He was Elliot freaking Stabler.. The most loving, kindest man she had ever known.
The doctor walked over to Olivia… "Hi Miss Benson… They tell me Elliot wants to know when he can go home…" he stated leaning up against the nurses station.
Olivia chuckled; "Yeah he does… I can take care of him.. Do you think if everything goes well tonight that he could go home tomorrow? I promise I wont let him over do it Doctor."
"I think that if his wounds… which should be fine… look good in the morning we will release him. Just make sure he doesn't over do it, and the wounds stay clean" the doctor said with a small smile.
Olivia almost jumped, she was so excited! She couldn't wait for Elliot to be out of that hospital. She hated hospitals just as much as Elliot hated them.
"Thank you very much doctor.." she smiled and walked back to Elliot's room.
"Hey handsome… I have great news.." she said as she walked in.
Elliot lit up as soon as she walked in. "They're letting me go home tonight?"
"Not tonight, but if everything goes well they'll be releasing you tomorrow."
Elliot smiled… "Maybe then we get some kind of normalcy back to our lives.." Elliot said as he looked back at Olivia.
Olivia held his hand tightly as she thought… Normalcy? They were Elliot Stabler and Olivia Benson… What was normalcy? When had they ever had any kind of normalcy in their lives?
The thought made a smile come to her face. She truly did love him so. And what made her happy, was that he loved her too.
A/N Okay, so I hope everyone enjoyed this chapter. I wanted to focus on Just Elliot and Olivia and their relationship. The next chapter will Be Elliot's reaction to Olivia's pregnancy… IF she can find the courage to tell him. I guess you'll have to review and stay tuned to see. I should have an update in a couple days. Anyway.. Review? I love your feedback! (:
