One Month Later
Jason continued pacing, knowing that Olivia was a day over her expected due date. She hadn't been experiencing any contractions which worried him. The couple that he was going to give her baby to was on his case. Just moments after the doctor, whom he also friends with left; Jason shook his head feeling more impatient about this.
He also allowed Elliot to be with Olivia, no longer feeling the need to physically harm him. As Jason left; heading to cool off downstairs, he knew that she could go into labor anytime. All he had do is continue to wait.
Olivia was nervous but scared, which was something that Elliot already had sensed. He could see the fear in her eyes clearly," I'm not going to let him take our baby from us."
" What if you can't?"
Elliot felt the same, as his hand rested down on her stomach," He wanted me to have sex with you, hoping it would trigger you to go into labor. I refused, the baby will come out when he or she is ready."
" The baby's happy kicking away inside of me," she said softly," I felt like we will ever be parents. Jason's always taken that from us. I waited so long to be a mom," as her voice flooded with tears.
As he held her close, Olivia cried softly. She wanted the chance to hold her baby for the first time," I'm not the only one, there were other woman out there that he's done this to. We have to stop him El, those babies belonged with their real mothers."
Elliot nodded," Just hope that they did come forward. Somehow I have a feeling that Jason has never been arrested. The guy is too careful and smart, but there's no way he's going to get away with taking our baby."
However Olivia wasn't too sure about that," What if he's stopped but no one can find the couple that he gave our baby to?"
" He'll talk," Elliot answered," Right now, I don't care if I have to deliver our baby myself."
Another tear slid down her cheek, as Elliot gently wiped it away. He too felt saddened, knowing just how much motherhood meant to Olivia," I saw a way for us to escape, but Jason blocked it off. Guy's smarter than I thought he was."
" Great, why didn't you tell me that before?" as her hand rushed to her stomach in pain. Elliot gently took her other hand, "Breathe Liv."
Once the contracted and faded, Olivia lay back. As the hours past, her contractions worsened, but Elliot remained calm as he blotted her forehead, " Breathe, babe. I know it hurts, you can't push yet."
As the rain continued beating down on the window, Elliot fed her some ice. He too wanted this to be a happy moment for them both, but somehow it didn't feel like it. Especially given where they were, and what was about to happen.
Olivia moaned softly, " It hurts," she said squeezing his hand tightly," Make it stop, please I can't do this."
" C'mon babe you can do this," he encouraged," Breathe with me."
She cried out in pain, " I can't!"
Elliot didn't care just how hard she was squeezing his hand, he knew what she was going through was painful. Once her water had broke, Olivia cried loudly in pain; Elliot prepared to deliver their baby. He knew it wouldn't be long.
" Push Liv, now!"
Olivia cried," I can't, El," as she started pushing.
That's when Jason entered along with another man, but they didn't do or say anything. Elliot ignored their presences, as he continued to coach Olivia, " Push Babe, it's okay."
Pushing felt like forever, as the pain continued, " Almost there, Liv. Keep Pushing," his breathing was quick but with a bit of excitement. Moments later, Olivia heard the sound of their baby's first cries; as she lay back crying happily.
Jason had pushed him away right before their baby had been born, leaving Elliot to watch. He felt saddened upon not being able to cut the umbilical cord. With one moment, Jason wrapped their baby up in a blanket , before proceeding to head for the door.
That's when the man knocked Elliot onto the floor, while beating him. Once he had stopped the door slammed shut and was locked behind. Tears streamed down Olivia's face, as Elliot got up and went over to check on her. He too felt saddened but knew this wasn't right what had just happened.
Olivia lay back, crying softly," What did we have?"
" A girl," Elliot answered, while seeing the hurt in her eyes. That's when the two heard the sound of the door being unlocked, which meant that they were allowed to leave the room. Elliot stopped her," Let me deal with this."
" I want to see her," Olivia whispered, her words already in tears. As Elliot kissed her cheek, she sighed softly, as tears continued streaming down.
He too felt terrible, as he went out into the hallway before spotting Jason; closing one of the bedroom doors behind. That's when one of Jason's men came from behind and threw him up against the wall, before leading him back to the room where Olivia was.
That's when the two heard the door slammed shut before locking. Elliot was frustrated as he punched the wall, wanting to kill Jason for what he had just done. Olivia felt the same," What name did you decide on?"
" Emily Anne," he answered," Feel bad I never got to hold her."
Olivia nodded softly," We don't even know who she looks like, just want to see her so much El," as Elliot pulled her into an embrace. As she continued crying softly, he too felt heartbroken," You're still her mom Liv, and will always be."
Throughout the rest of the night, Olivia and Elliot held each other close; unaware that Jason was going to separate them again but this time he was planning on releasing Elliot first before dropped Olivia off in the middle of nowhere.
Jason hadn't any interest in killing either one. He was done taking victims, but had no idea that the squad was on to him.
