Chapter 10

Calvin looked out the window as the car moved down the interstate heading for the city. He'd been extremely quiet and Fin didn't want to press it. He wasn't exactly sure what was going through the teenager's head but he knew that he hadn't helped by not being able to give him a full medical update on his adoptive mother.

"She's going to be ok right?" Calvin asked suddenly.

"You know your Mom; Stubborn Mama Bear. You never have to worry about that," Fin smirked.

"She got hurt because of me didn't she?" He wanted to know.

"Cal, you have to know that whatever happens, none of this was your fault. You did everything your Mom and Dad taught you to do," Fin immediately felt bad. He knew that there was nothing different Calvin could have done to prevent what had happened. If anything he had to make him see that Elliot had done all he could and it was still not enough to keep Olivia safe. They were dealing with a very smart and crafty criminal who had been cheating the system almost from the time he learned to walk.

"I screwed up and now Mom is in the hospital," Calvin couldn't help but start to cry. Fin pulled the car over and quickly slammed the gear into "Park". He knew words were not going to help in this situation and he carefully exited the car and headed for the passenger side. Opening the door, he pulled Calvin out and pulled him into a huge hug. Fin wasn't usually the hugging type but here was a moment when a boy needed someone to hold him and tell him his mother was going to be all right and he would never allow Calvin to think that he didn't deserve it. There had been so much pain he'd already gone through, he didn't need anymore.

At the hospital, they had finally let Elliot back in to see Olivia after the doctor had performed a few more tests and promised to let them know the results as soon as he could. Now the pair had nothing but silence between them. There were so many things to say but neither was sure where to start.

"El…" his name was barely above a whisper after what seemed like an eternity and Elliot squeezed her hand a little tighter.

"I'm here and I'm not going anywhere," he told her. She probably knew that but he could tell that she needed to hear it.

"He…" she started and stopped as the tears started to flow.

"He's in custody. There is no way he is getting out of this," Elliot reassured her and he carefully stroked the side of her face, and wiped away the tears. He wanted to hold her so badly but with her spine still questionable as to what kind of movement could be performed, he was forbidden. It was ironic; all those years of being partners and not being able to touch her in the way he wanted to finally getting his chance and now it was as if they were back at square one.

There was a knock on the door and Elliot was slightly annoyed to be interrupted in this moment but he knew that whoever it was, they were trying to tell them something; otherwise they would not have bothered.

"I have somebody here who needs to see his Mom," Fin announced.

"Calvin!" Olivia tears of sadness immediately turned to joy when she saw her son running over to her. Elliot slowed him down and pulled him into a hug. Then he carefully helped Olivia pull him into a one armed hug.

"Mom, I'm so sorry," the tears started again and by now both he and Olivia were crying. Fin slowly backed out of the room and went to go find Munch.

"None of this is your fault. You have nothing to be sorry for. You have no idea how happy I am to see you. I'm so glad you're ok," Olivia smiled as he pulled up to look at him.

"You're going to be ok right?" Calvin asked.

"Not to worry. The doctor is looking at the films as we speak," she tried to reassure him but inwardly she wondered if she was lying. She'd been too afraid to move her legs and until the doctor had poked her toes, she wasn't even sure if they were still down there.

"Your Mom is going to be just fine, you'll see. Nothing keeps her down," Elliot smiled.

"Where is Lottie?" Calvin suddenly asked, realizing his baby sister was nowhere to be seen.

"She's safe with Uncle John," Elliot told him. Calvin nodded and heaved a huge sigh of relief.

"El, can you check on Charlotte? When was the last time somebody fed her or changed her diaper?" Olivia wanted to know.

"I can find out," Elliot gave her a slight smile knowing that she wanted some alone time with Calvin. He gave his son's shoulder a squeeze and then headed out of the room.

Once out in the waiting room, he was surprised to see Maureen, Kathleen, Lizzie, and Dickie there. He had completely forgotten about calling them what with everything going on and he immediately felt terrible.

"Dad!" Maureen rushed over and gave him a hug while the others quickly crowded around him.

"Hi guys. I'm so sorry I didn't call you sooner I just…" he trailed off realizing that he would have to fill them in on everything and yet he still didn't know everything about Olivia's medical condition.

"What happened?" Lizzie asked.

"Where are Olivia and Calvin?" Kathleen had looked around the room and realized that they were not there.

"It's a long story but I know your Dad is very happy you're here," Captain Cragen announced his presence and Elliot looked away from his kids.

"Captain, have…" he didn't get a chance to finish.

"They are transferring Lewis now to the hospital ward at Rikers," Don told him. Elliot heaved a sigh of relief. The sooner they got that man behind bars the better.

"Is that the guy who hurt Olivia?" Maureen asked. She could figure out what was going one considering the fact that half the squad was here and that Munch was playing with Charlotte.

"Yes, he hurt Olivia," Elliot told them.

"Before you get too far, I need Munch and Fin back. We're going to need all hands on deck for Barba, once he gets a load of what our witness is saying," Cragen said.

"Absolutely," Elliot nodded.

"You will call us as soon as you know about Liv right?" The captain wanted to know.

"You're my first call," the former SVU detective smiled. Don nodded and grabbed his two detectives on the way, both telling him to give their best to Olivia.

"They're going to nail that guy, right Dad?" Dickie asked.

"Oh you better believe it son," Elliot smiled.
