TWO MONTHS LATER

As Olivia was sitting on the couch listing to the radio, a song came on that made her think of her relationship with Elliot. This wasn't the first song she had heard today or even this week, but the more she listened to it, the more her love grew for him.

Normally Jason would yelled at her to turn it off, but today he wasn't here which was fine. Yesterday he hit her in the face, during an argument which continued for two hours. Glass remained scattered all over the kitchen floor, which was the first thing that Elliot saw when he walked in.

Being that for the last few months he had endured both physical and emotional abuse, leading up to his release from the hell hole that Jason and his accomplish had been keeping him in. Being threatened not even to talk or make eye contact with Olivia put him in a bad situation.

He already had noticed her sitting on the couch looking very pregnant, to Elliot she looked radiantly beautiful but lonely. As he started washing the dishing in the side, he winced as the water came into contact with the cuts on his hand.

Nevertheless, Elliot's mind now shifted onto what to name their baby. Jason forced him to make the decision for Olivia. It wasn't fair to her, but hoped whatever name that he chose would be the right one; considering now he would be allowed to be present during the birth of their child.

Yet both were banned from holding their baby, which broke him. He couldn't imagine never getting that chance but more so for Olivia; since this was her first child. For the time being, Elliot continued washing the dishes, although his body was hurting badly.

Just then Olivia turned up the sound on the radio, as she continued listening to the song. Moments later, she glanced up, seeing him holding out his hand.

With a single breath, he helped her up as the two slowly danced together. Olivia's eyes remained closed, wanting to cherish the moment. When the song ended, she felt both of his hands resting on her stomach.
Then slowly, he stepped back letting out a sigh. Elliot was still awed upon feeling their baby kicking, as he gently touched her hand. His heart truly loved Olivia, but the sound of someone banging made Elliot head back over to the sink

If Jason caught him, his life would be over. The threats Jason had previously made mixed with physical assault, made Elliot think twice. Of course once he walked in and went over and pulled the plug to the radio out of the outlet," DID I TELL YOU NOT TO DO THIS?"

Upon making his way back to Elliot, he drew out his gun and pointed it at him, "LET'S GO NOW!" Elliot sighed but didn't resist, after what had happened in the other place. Once he was lead into the bathroom, the door slammed shut.

While that was going on Olivia hid in her bedroom, feeling extremely scared. In a matter of moments she heard the sound of Elliot yelling loudly in pain. Her heart was nearly pounding as Olivia continued listening to his yells; unable to stop whatever abuse was being inflicted.

By the time she heard Elliot stop yelling, Olivia was still breathing fast , wondering if the man she loved was dead. That's when she heard Jason barking out an order for Elliot to get up. Olivia hated Jason for everything he did, and wanted to kill him.

Being trapped and unable to help Elliot, hurt her deeply. She felt powerless about not being able to do anything about it, but instead all she could do was wait until Jason finally left; which could be awhile depending on his current mood.

By the time that Jason left, it was a few hours later. Once the main door slammed shut, Olivia took a look around before peeking her head into the empty bathroom. Upon entering the other bedroom, she saw Elliot standing over by the window.

As Olivia came closer and saw the while bandage around his hand," El, I should have stopped him."
" there was nothing that you could do about it."

Elliot knew just how worried she was," We're going to get out of here. This bastard needs to be stopped."

" So what's your plan?"

" I'm formulating one, just go back to your room. Jason will hurt you if he catches us together."

Olivia nodded," He already can't stand the sight of me being pregnant, already have been cursed and humiliated because the fact I'm huge."

Elliot laughed," No you're not, I happen to think that pregnancy looks good on you."

" You so full of shit Elliot," she teased, causing him to laugh. As Olivia came closer the two shared a small kiss, but she knew that something had happened. Being that now wasn't the time to get him to talk, she stepped back and headed back into the hallway.

Just moments after she had left, Elliot sighed deeply. He knew that next month Olivia would be giving birth, which was supposed to be a happy time for them both but it wasn't. They both knew that Jason was going to take their child from them.

Elliot had to go something, he couldn't allow their baby to be taken away. It would break Olivia's heart forever, and his as well. Being that he had little time, Elliot already had been formulating a plan that would prevent this, but had a strong feeling that it wouldn't work.

Ultimately, Elliot knew the chances of him getting killer were greater if the plan backfired. Nevertheless, he had to take his chances. Just two hours later Jason came back, the beatings continued. Elliot fought back, knocking Jason to the ground," Don't even so much as try to take our baby from us. You are a piece of scum. The women that left hurting after what you did. Those were their children you gave away."

" To good homes, yours will have a good one as well," as Elliot punching him hard," It's done with, she better not wait until the end of next month to give birth!"

" Our baby will come out when it's time, for now it's safe and warm inside of Olivia. She loves our baby, I'm not about to have her put through hell because a bastard like you took our child away. You can torture me all you want, just leave our baby alone."

Jason shook his head," No can do, it's done with. Besides Olivia will always be alone. She's lonliner now being pregnant than before. She'll never find love or be part of a family."

" You're wrong, Olivia always been part of mine and I love her," just as Jason knocked him down onto the ground, as he drew out a knife, pressing it against Elliot's throat.

" You might want to tell her to lose weight. Better yet force her to, if she doesn't get all weepy on you," Jason taunted, seeing how he was raging with anger," She's sad, her motherhood being snatched away, no real chance on finding love."

Elliot didn't want to die, or like the comments about her weight. To him, Olivia looked beautiful pregnant or not. Once Jason pulled the knife away, Elliot breathed again but found that he was locked inside of his room for the night.

He ached to hold Olivia close, to tell her just how much he loved her.
