This is this the last Chapter. I could probably keep thinking of things to add but I want to finish other stories and I have a few ideas for new ones. Hope you enjoy this last installement and thanks for all the great feed back.
Chapter 19
Elliot rolled onto his back and sighed as he looked over to where Olivia should be lying. It had been almost 2 weeks since they had returned from the small break at the beach house. They had both started their counselling sessions and things had been going well. Then Barba had told her the date had been set for the hearing into what happened with Lewis. Since she had been told she hadn't slept well, waking up shaking and sweating from dreams, Elliot would often wake up alone and find her sitting alone in the kitchen.
He looked at the clock as he climbed out of bed it was just after 5am. He pulled on a pair of sweats and went to find her. Sure enough she was sat in the kitchen in the dark. He walked up behind her and wrapped his arms tightly around her waist hugging her as he kissed the side of her neck.
"How long you been up?"
"Not long, I woke and couldn't get back to sleep so I got up as I didn't want to wake you."
"I wouldn't have minded."
"I know." She turned to face him and wrapped her arms around his waist burying her face into his chest. Elliot kissed the top of her head.
"Everything is going to be fine Liv. Only two more days and this will all be over. We can move along with our lives and forget all about that bastard Lewis."
"I know, I'm just so nervous. I know how all the victims feel now when it's their turn in court. I used to always tell them they would be fine and they had nothing to worry about…."
"And you don't. Just stick to our story and we will be fine."
She looked up at him. "What if I panic, say something I shouldn't."
"Liv you're not on trial. All they want to hear is your side of the story about what happened. You won't be cross examined, you won't have any questions to answer you just need to repeat exactly what's in your statement."
"I know, but it doesn't stop me being worried. I can't lose everything we have."
"And you won't, I promise you."
Olivia took a deep breath as Elliot held her tight. "Come on," he said taking her hand and pulling her to the bedroom. "You need to relax."
Olivia grinned. "Seriously Stabler is that all you think about."
Elliot shook his head "Most of the time yes, but not this time," he said throwing her sweats and t-shirt at her. "Were going for a run. Your cast is off now it will do us both good."
"El it's only five in the morning," she said pulling on her clothes.
"Exactly so it will be quiet out there, perfect time to run, clear your head," he told her as they got dressed.
They ran through the quiet streets and into the park side by side. Olivia knew Elliot was holding back for her he wasn't even breathing hard.
"You okay?" he asked her.
She nodded.
"Yeah," she panted. "Just been a while since I been out for a run."
After about another mile she slowed down to a stop and bent over putting her hand on her knees. Elliot turned back around and went to her.
"Just….need to stop," she gasped. Elliot stood in front of her hands on his hips and looked around the park. Apart from a few other runners the place was still quiet. Olivia walked of the path onto the grass and leant back against a tree. "We need to do this more often, I am so unfit," she told him.
"You look pretty good to me," he smirked standing in front of her and resting his hands on her hips. "Just a little out of shape, which is understandable. I told you we will start going to the boxing gym, you will be back to fitness in no time."
He slipped his hands under her t-shirt and ran his fingers lightly over her skin as he dropped his head and kissed her neck. She sighed at his touch as his lips took hold of ear and he gently nibbled.
"You feeling a little more relaxed?" he asked her.
"Hmmmm."
Elliot grinned against her neck as he slipped a hand into her sweats.
"El…."
"Shhhh, trust me," he said as he kissed her lips and slipped two fingers between her folds. She spread her legs a little as his fingers slipped inside her. He moved his body slightly so he blocked the view of her from the path. "Damn Liv you're so fucking wet," he mumbled into her neck, as he pushed his fingers deeper inside her, spreading and twisting them .
She knew she should stop him, they were in a public place any one could see them, but it felt so good, he felt so good inside her. His thumb flicked over her clit and he rubbed gently.
"Oh god baby," she mumbled as her legs began to tremble, he held her round the waist to hold her up.
"Just let go baby, and relax," he told her resting his head against hers. "I've got you, I won't let you fall, I will always have you," he promised her as he felt her whole body tremble and she clamped hard around his fingers.
"Shit….. I love you so much," she told him. "So fucking much." He held her tight as her body relaxed against him and she wrapped her arms around his waist and held him tight.
"And I love you to. Just remember that when you are giving your statement today. If you start to panic, just focus on me, okay."
She nodded her head as he removed his fingers from her, and put both his arms around her holding her tight.
"One more day and that prick is out of our lives for good. We have so much to look forward to Liv and we are going to do it together."
They stood together in silence as people ran past them and the park began to fill.
"We should head back," she said pulling away from him. "We need to be at court for ten."
Elliot nodded and took her hand as they walked onto the path. "Do you mind if we just walk back?" she asked him.
"Course not, we will grab a coffee and something to eat on the way," he said wrapping his arm around her shoulder as she wrapped hers around his waist. He felt her giggle against him.
"What's so funny?" he asked her.
"This. When we were partners and we used to walk side by side I always wished I could just hold your hand or put my arm around you. I would see couples walk past us and wish it was us. I just can't believe we are actually doing it now."
He kissed the top of her head smiling, "It does feel pretty good doesn't it?"
Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Olivia stood outside the courtroom, waiting for Elliot who had gone to get a coffee for them. She lifted her hands they were shaking and she felt sick. She heard Elliot's voice and looked up to see him walking down the corridor with Cragen and Melinda.
"Hey," said Melinda smiling. "How you holding up?"
"Erm…. Yeah okay I guess," she said.
"We have nothing to worry about," said Melinda. "I promise you, they have found nothing in the evidence collected to question anything you said in your statement."
"I know but…"
"But nothing. I know you're worried they might find something to say you and Elliot lied but they won't. If they had Elliot would have been brought in and you that. You just need to stay calm and stick to your story."
Olivia nodded and they all stood and drank their coffees.
"Olivia," said a voice from behind them. Olivia turned around and stared at Brian. She felt Elliot take hold of her and move to her side as if to warn Brian off.
"What do you want Cassidy?" snapped Elliot.
"I just…. Can I talk to you please?" he asked Olivia, ignoring Elliot. "Just for a few minutes…..please."
Olivia looked at Elliot "I won't be long," she told him.
"Liv you don't need to talk to him."
"I know but I need some closure on that part of my life. I will be fine."
Elliot nodded and let go of her hand. She took a few steps forward then stopped and turned to face him, seeing the look of worry on his face. She stepped towards him cupping his face and kissing him softly "I love you," she whispered.
"Love you to," he said as she kissed him softly and turned towards Brian.
"You have ten minutes," she told him walking past him. Brian looked at Elliot before turning and following Olivia along the corridor. She stopped walking when she was far enough way so they could talk without people hearing them. She turned to face Brian, who stood still and looked at her.
"You look good Olivia," he said putting his hands in his pockets when he talked. "Real good," he said as he looked up and down her body.
"What you mean now I'm not covered in bruises, burns and cuts, you can look at me. Unlike that night in the hospital when you couldn't go near me."
"No I mean you look well."
"Yeah well I feel good. I have never been happier," she told him looking over his shoulder towards Elliot, a smile forming on her face when he smiled at her.
"I could have made you happy," he told her. "If you had just let me."
Olivia looked away from Elliot and back to Brian.
"I loved you Olivia, I still do. We were doing so well until….. Until Stabler decided to come back into your life." Olivia just looked at him not speaking. "I mean where was he, huh. He disappeared from your life, he wanted nothing to do with you for years. But I was there for you, me not him. Can you honestly stand there and tell me you didn't feel anything for me, that you still don't have feelings for me," he reached forward to take hold of her hand. As his fingers touched her hand he felt her engagement ring. He grabbed her hand lifting it up and glared at the ring. "What the fuck!"
Olivia pulled her hand back away from him.
"He asked you to marry him?"
"Yeah, and I said yes."
"Are you fucking crazy, he has been back in your life what 5 weeks and you agree to marry him."
"Actually he asked me after about two weeks but it took me a week to say yes," she said looking at the ring. "And as for being crazy maybe I am. I mean why else would I have got with you."
"What the hell does that mean?"
"Brian we slept together once, years ago. I avoided you for weeks after, until you went to Narcotics."
"So why get with me then?" he asked her. "Why not just ignore me?"
"I don't know," she told him. "You came into my life again when I needed someone. I was lonely and I knew you liked me and I thought if I spent time with you I would develop those feeling s for you as well, and I did, but…"
"But what?"
"You weren't Elliot. I'm sorry but you weren't him. I tried to forget about him, push him to the back of mind when I was with you, but he was always there. I went through so many emotions when he left, hate, anger, pity, but the one that was always there was the love I felt for him."
Brian shook his head "I don't believe you, I know you felt something for me."
"Brian I cared for you, I did…. I just didn't love you, I'm sorry."
"But I love you," he said grabbing her hand again.
Olivia sighed as she looked at the desperation on his face. "I want you back Olivia, please," he begged her.
"Brian please don't do this, it's over between us and the sooner you accept this the better. I'm with Elliot now, I love him. You need to move on."
"And what if I can't? I know something went on in that house that you are all hiding and covering up….. And that's what I'm gonna say in the court room. When they ask if there is any other evidence I will stand up and tell them."
Olivia sighed and ran her fingers through her hair. "Why are you doing this. If you love me like you say you do, then why can't you just be happy that I got away and got out ."
"Because I know you're taking the blame for killing him when it wasn't you. You're covering up for him like you always have. You always defended him and could never see any bad in him. He should have been locked up years ago."
"Fine you want to know what happened, I will tell you," she said finally losing it with him. "I was scared, Lewis put the gun into my mouth and threatened to kill me, he made me beg for my life and tell him I didn't want to die. I was so fucking scared that I….. I wet myself."
Brian just stood and looked at her as she spoke in a hushed voice so no one else could hear.
"All I could think of as he cocked the gun was I would never be able to tell Elliot how much I loved him, that I would never see him again if I was going to die, when I was handcuffed to that bed." She took a deep breath before she continued. "I managed to break free and disarm him handcuffing him to the bed, and all I kept thinking was if Elliot was there he would know what to do, not you, not Amaro or Fin but Elliot. I knew he would hurt him for me and not think twice about it, so I called him. I told him I needed him and he came for me. He didn't question why, he just came."
"I would have come for, I would have helped you."
Olivia put her hand up top stop him talking "Brian you weren't even there when they brought me out the house or at the hospital. You didn't even know I was missing till Rollins called you. Not once did you check on me to see if I was okay."
Brian went to say something but stopped.
"If Elliot hadn't turned up at that house I would be dead now, he got there just after Lewis had knocked me out. He checked I was okay then he… he made Lewis suffer, just like the way he hurt me, he hurt him the way Lewis hurt every woman he had ever taken, he scared him he done what I needed him to do, he done what I couldn't do."
Brian looked up at her. "So he did kill him and you are taking the blame to save his ass."
"No….. I killed him. Elliot thought he was unconscious and was helping me. Elliot had put his gun down when he helped me and Lewis got it. He had it aimed at Elliot. I didn't think twice I picked up my gun and shot him. And I would do it again if I had to."
Olivia didn't see Elliot until he was right behind Brian.
"Liv we need to go in," he told her looking between her and Brian. He could tell things weren't good. "You okay baby?"
Olivia looked back at Brian.
"I guess that is up to you," she said looking at Brian. "You can take away the only man I ever loved. Ruin the careers of the men and women I have called family for the last 15 yrs. All because they helped me. It's entirely up to you."
She walked past Brian who just stood there and took Elliot's hand. Before she walked away she turned back and whispered in Brian's ear. "Just make sure if you do say something that could take us all down, I would disappear, because I promise I will hunt you down and make you pay, if you hurt anyone I love."
"What happened?" asked Elliot looking back at Brian who was still rooted to the spot, as they walked away.
"I told him the truth. I told him everything I felt and what happened with Lewis.
"Liv was that a good idea."
"Guess we will find out in the next few hours."
Elliot stopped walking and turned her to face her.
"I swear to god if that little prick says something in there I will kill him."
"I kinda just whispered the same thing to him, told him he would need to disappear."
Elliot smiled at her and kissed her lips softly "That's my girl," he said hugging her tight before they followed everyone into the court room.

Olivia sat in the chair at the front of the room, she could feel everyone's eyes on her. Cragen, Amaro, Fin and Melinda had already given their statements. She looked around the room and saw Cassidy sat at the back by himself.
"Detective Benson, if you could tell us what happened that day in your own words please."
Olivia nodded and took a deep breath, before she began talking. Every now and then she would have to stop and compose herself as she went into detail about what happened over those four days. She didn't try and hide her tears as she told everyone what Lewis put her through.
Despite knowing every detail of what Lewis had done, Elliot felt his body shaking as he listened to her talk. As she recalled the events in the house he let the tears fall, he didn't care who seen. Melinda reached over and took his hand to comfort him.
He kept his eyes on Olivia as she stopped talking again as she got to the part where the lies started. He saw her look at Cassidy and then back to him. He gave her a small smile and nodded to her. She smiled back at him and carried on the story, never looking away from him.
She finally finished giving her statement. After a few questions she was excused.
"Anymore witness's or does anyone have anything else to add before we close this hearing to go over the evidence?" asked the judge.
Olivia turned and looked at Cassidy. Cassidy looked back at her and smiled, before standing up and walking out of the room. Olivia took a deep shaky breath and turned to Elliot and rested against his shoulder.
"It's over baby," he whispered to her. "It's finally over."
Olivia looked up at him and smiled, before looking at all her friends who were smiling as well and looking relieved.
"We did it," said Amaro.
"Well there is still the verdict," said Munch.
"I don't think there is anything to worry about there," said Cragen. "Everything went as smoothly as it could have."
"Elliot, take me home," she said to him. Elliot nodded and kissed the top of her head.
"Let's go," he said standing up and leading her out the court room.

11 Months later
Elliot stormed into the squad room.
"Your Cap in?" he asked Fin.
"Erm yeah, just got back, you okay?"
"No I'm fucking not. First I have to transfer out the unit and over to Narcotics. Then I get taken off of a case at the request of your Captain because Amaro and Rollins are involved. A case I was close to closing. I was then told to report here. So I'm far from fucking happy."
"Oh right," said Fin watching as Elliot stormed to the office and banged on it before storming in.
"What the hell do you think your doin getting me pulled off my case like that. I'm not part of your unit anymore you can't do this. I was so fucking close to bustin those pricks," he yelled pacing the office.
"Yeah well I needed you here."
"What?"
"Do you know what date it is?"
"What?"
"What date is it?"
Elliot looked down at the watch Olivia had gave him the day she had said yes to marrying him. A smile slowly spread over his face as he heard the door behind him being locked.
"I asked your Captain to take you off this case, cause I knew you were going to be on a stakeout all night….. And I wanted to spend the night, with you, not alone," said Olivia as she stood behind Elliot and whispered in his ear.
"You did huh," he grinned as Olivia walked back round to the front of him and leaned against her desk.
Elliot stood there mouth open as Olivia stood in front of him wearing only red lace panties and a bra.
"You…. you know Captain Stabler, this could be seen as sexual harassment," he stuttered as she came towards him.
"Oh I'm gonna sexually harass alright, all night long," she told him turning him so he was leaning against the desk. She pulled his suit jacket down over his shoulders and threw it on the floor, before pulling his tie off and undoing the buttons on his shirt. She put her hands on his chest and ran her fingers over his chest and down over his stomach undoing his belt.
"Do you know what I realised, as I sat here waiting for you to get your ass over here."
"No….. What?" he asked as she reaching inside his trousers and boxers and took hold of his cock, massaging it softly.
"Since Cragen left and I got made up to Captain, you have never full filled my fantasy of being fucked over my desk."
Elliot swallowed hard as she released him from his shorts. "Yeah well, we never really got the chance."
"Well we do now Sgt Stabler."
Elliot looked down at her "Is that an order Captain?"
"Damn right it is," she said releasing his now hard cock and pulling down her panties kicking them off. She kissed him before turning around so her back was to him and she was facing her desk.
Elliot stepped forward and ran his fingers down her spine and over her ass cheeks between her legs.
"Christ, your soaking baby," he said as he slipped his fingers between her folds.
"I got a little impatient waiting for you, so I got myself started and ready for."
"God I Love you," he grinned as he spread her legs and she bent further over the desk. He took hold of himself and guided himself into her. He felt her silky walls grip him as he pushed his way fully in making her gasp. "I love that feeling when I first enter you," he told her leaning forward and kissing her shoulders. "You're so hot and tight, it feels amazing."
"El," she said as he began to move.
"Yeah….."
"Less talking, more fucking, I have been waiting all day for this."
Elliot laughed as he pounded into his wife hard and fast, gripping her hips pulling her back to him as he fucked her fast not holding back. H looked down and watched as he slid in and out of her.
"Liv as much as I love taking you from behind I want to watch you when you cum." He slid out of her and spun her round lifting her up onto the desk. "I am so friggin lucky," he told her as she spread her legs and he pushed straight back into her. He reached behind her and made quick work of undoing her bra clasp and ripping her bra from her throwing it across the office and hitting the closed blinds. He leant over her and took one of her nipples into his mouth and sucked it hard as he thrust into her over and over.
"I love it when you fuck me hard and fast," she panted. "God baby I'm so close, don't stop." She thrust up to meet as he lifted his body and moved his hand to her pussy and rubbed her clit. "Christ!" she screamed out forgetting they were at work as she came hard and fast her body convulsing.
"I love watching you cum, it's so hot," he gasped as he continued to thrust into her.
"Stop!" she told him. "Don't cum yet."
"What? Why?" he asked as he stopped moving inside her.
"Let me up," she told him pushing him back from her. She dropped her feet to the floor and spun him round so he was against the desk.
"Liv…." he said looking a little hurt that she never let him finish. Before he could say any more she dropped to her knees on the floor in front of him, and pulled his trousers and shorts down to the floor.
She looked up at him and smiled "Don't worry," she told him. "I just want to taste you when you cum, another of my fantasies to blow you at work."
"Jesus," he whispered as she took him fully into her mouth. He ran his fingers through her hair and pulled it back away from her face so he could watch her as his cock slid in and out of her mouth as her tongue swirled around his tip.
"I have got the hottest and sexiest wife ever," he told her as she took him deep and sucked hard, his cock throbbing in her mouth. "I'm close baby, so fucking close," he grunted as he pushed slightly into her mouth. He gripped the edge of the desk as he came, his warm seed coming in spurts and hitting the back of her throat as she swallowed everything he gave her.
She felt his body begin to relax and she released him from her mouth kissing the tip before standing up and wrapping her arms around his waist and resting her head on his chest.
"Your amazing do you know that," he said kissing the top of her head.
"You're not too bad yourself," she grinned.
"I can't believe we just done that in your office, on your desk."
She started to giggle into his chest. "What's so funny?"
"I can't believe we just done that when the office is still full of people working. I'm fully naked whilst your stood with your trousers round your ankles."
"Guess we better hope the Chief doesn't call in to see you."
"He better not, I'm not quite finished with you yet."
"Oh…."
"Yeah," she said pulling away from him and walking around her desk and picking up her clothes and putting them on. "Get dressed," she told him.
Once dressed she took hold of his hand and led him out the office.
"Liv where we going?" he asked her as they walked past the rest of the squad who all had grins on their faces. She didn't answer as she led him up the stairs and onto the roof. As they walked outside Elliot saw a small table and chairs all set with candles and a bottle of champagne.
"Wow," he said wrapping his arms around her waist from behind.
"I was going to celebrate at home but because of the case load I couldn't manage to get away so I thought I would do it here."
"It's perfect," he said kissing her neck. "Just one thing," he chuckled. "Where's the food."
Olivia lifted his wrist up and looked at his watch. "It should be here any… second…Now" she said turning round to face the door as Fin walked out carrying a bag of Chinese food. "Right on time."
"Cap, I don't think they would of dared be late," he said placing it on the table. "I will take any calls that come in for the next hour, to give you both some time."
"Thanks Man," said Elliot shaking his hand. Once Fin left they sat at the table and took the food out the bag. Elliot popped the Champagne and poured it out.
"To us," said Elliot clinking his glass against hers.
"To us," she smiled taking a drink.
"I have a little surprise for you as well," he said reaching inside his jacket and handing her an envelope. "We never got a chance of a Honeymoon cause of work and shit so…"
Olivia opened the envelope and gasped "Elliot!" she said looking at the contents of the envelope.
"Two weeks in the Maldives, in our own private place, with our own little beach area. We don't need to see anyone for the full time."
Olivia stood up and leant over the table cupping his face and kissing him. "This is amazing, thank you."
"Yeah well I reckon we deserve after the last year and a bit. We haven't had time alone properly since the week we had at the beach house."
"I can't wait," she grinned. She looked at the tickets again. "El… we go tomorrow. I cant. I need to find cover, I have loads of work….."
Elliot held up his hand "It's all been taken care of. Fin is stepping in for the two weeks. All we need to do is go and pack."
Olivia took hold of his hand and played with his wedding ring. "I have another little surprise for you as well. Not quite as good as this, but I think you're going to like it. I was at a meeting with the Chief today and he gave me this. He said I could tell you," she said reaching into her pocket and handing him a piece of paper. Elliot took it and read it.
"Your shitting me," he grinned. Olivia shook her head.
"You start next month at Queens Special Victims…. Congratulations."
Elliot stood up and walked round to her and pulled her up into his arms. "I love you Captain Stabler."
"And I love you Captain Stabler," she said as he pulled her to him and held her tight.
The End
