"Elliot, this is too soon. What if he's not ready?" Olivia asked getting ready for her day with Summer and the girls.
"Liv, he's four now. It's time for him to go to school. I don't like it either, but we can't have him here forever." Elliot said kissing her cheek. "Have fun today."
Olivia rolled her eyes. "Don't I always? Do you need anything?"
"Uh, how about you get another outfit for me to... inspect?" Elliot smirked.
Olivia laughed. "I'll see what I can find." She looked out into the living room. "Summer, baby, are you ready?"
Summer walked in with Beethoven behind her. "Yes Mommy."
"Okay, say goodbye to Daddy." Olivia said grabbing Summer's sippy cup out of the fridge.
Summer ran over to Elliot who picked her up. "Bye Daddy. See ya later."
Elliot kissed her head. "Bye baby. Have fun today." He smiled.
Summer smiled. "Of course." Elliot laughed.
Olivia smiled taking Summer. "Okay, I think we're ready." She kissed Summer's head and grabbed her bag. She kissed Elliot. "I'll call you later, El."
"Okay, drive safe." Elliot smiled. He watched as they walked out of the house. He walked into the living room to find Dickie playing with his trains and Kendle in his bouncy chair. "How are my boys doing?"
"Great!" Dickie smiled. "When is uncle Fin and John coming?"
"In about an hour." Elliot grinned. "Should we get out the grill and call DJ?"
"Yeah." Dickie said putting trains on his toy tracks.
Elliot picked up his phone and called DJ. "Hello?"
"Hey DJ, it's Elliot." Elliot greeted.
"Hey El, what's up?" DJ asked.
"Well, I was thinking about breaking out my grill. I have the guys coming over. We're just going to be hanging out since the girls had a day for themselves." Elliot said.
"Yeah, sounds great. Kathy took the kids up to her mom's for the weekend." DJ said.
Elliot paused. "How's it going for you?"
"We're getting divorced. It's the best it can possibly be." DJ sighed. "It looks like I'm going to get custody of Carmela. I don't have rights for Martin, but I do for the baby she's pregnant with. I'll probably give them up. I love that baby, but it's not mine and the father deserves to know his child."
"Does she know who the father is?" Elliot asked.
"Yeah, but she won't tell me. Sometimes I wonder if she does know." DJ sighed. "How is everybody doing over there?"
"Well, we're okay." Elliot said. "Casey is pregnant."
"What?! When did that happen?" DJ asked.
Elliot laughed. "Fin can explain it to you later. See ya later, DJ."
"Finally!" Alex said. She and Casey walked up to Olivia who was carrying Summer.
"What? I couldn't get a parking spot. You guys have to chose the busiest places and you expect me to be here on time." Olivia retorted kissing Summer's head. "Plus, this little girl loves to sing and it's the cutest thing ever." Summer grinned.
"Well, duh! She's cutest little girl ever!" Alex smiled taking Summer.
"Lex!" Summer smiled hugging Alex.
"How's my favorite Stabler?" Alex asked.
"Good." Summer said. She looked over at Casey. "Hi Case!"
"Hey Murmur!" Casey smiled. She put her arm on Olivia's shoulders. "Where we going first?"
Olivia laughed. "Well, we could get lunch and then go get our nails done."
"Sounds good to me." Casey said. "I feel like tacos."
Alex laughed. "This morning it was pasta with chocolate."
"Hey, I have to get used to all the cravings. I wanna know what I actually enjoy eating and what just sounds good. I really just want tacos." Casey whined.
Olivia laughed. "Okay, we're at the mall. There's a food court. You can get your tacos and Sumer and I can get our pizza."
"I want pepperoni!" Summer said.
Olivia smiled. "I know you do, baby."
After lunch, they went to get their nails done. Olivia sat next to Summer as she watched the lady put nail polish on her fingers. "Mommy, look how pretty my nails are."
"I see. They're gorgous." Olivia smiled. She kissed her daughter's head. She looked over at Alex and Casey. They were also getting their nails painted. "What'd you guys want to do after this?"
"Hmmm, we could go to that art museum down the street. I heard they take pictures and all that kind of stuff for you." Casey said.
"That sounds fun. What do you think Summer?" Alex asked leaning to look at her.
Summer looked up. "Can we still get ice cream?"
Olivia chuckled. "Yes honey, we can get ice cream."
"What's your name, sweetie?" The lady doing her nails asked. She had a tooth pick and was dipping it into black nail polish.
"Summer!" Summer smiled.
"Well, isn't that pretty name?" She smiled.
"Thank you." Summer grinned.
"Can you tell her your full name?" Olivia asked smiling.
"Summer Rae Stabler." Summer beamed.
"Good job, Murmur!" Olivia smiled with pride.
Summer smiled. "What's your name?"
"My name is Nina." The lady said. "Nina Birch."
"Nina." Summer said. Olivia smiled and leaned back in her chair, relaxing. Five minutes later, Nina left saying that Summer's nails needed to dry. "Mommy, look at my nails."
Olivia opened her eyes and smiled. "Well, look at those. They are beautiful. I didn't know she'd do that." Summer's nails were silver with SRStabler written across her nails. The last nail had a little heart on it. "How'd she do that with these little nails?" She looked over at Alex and Casey. "Guys, look at her nails."
Alex and Casey looked at Summer's nails. "Cute!" The both gasped.
Once their nails were dry, the went to go pay. Olivia was holding Summer when she went up to the counter. Nina was there. "Hi, you did a wonderful job with my daughter's nails. They're adorable."
Nina smiled. "No problem." She handed Olivia the bill. "I enjoyed it."
Olivia looked at the bill. "Oh, you didn't put Summer's manicure on the bill."
"I know. Like I said, she was no problem. She's better than most adults that come in here. Whenever you come, bring her. I'll always do her nails for free." Nina smiled.
"Wow." Olivia said paying. "Thanks! That's really kind of you."
"Well, you have a very lovely daughter." Nina smiled. "Bye Summer!" She waved slightly.
Summer grinned. "Bye Nina!"
Olivia smiled. "Thanks Nina." With that, she walked out of the salon with Alex and Casey. "Wasn't she nice?"
"Yeah, Summer is so lucky. Free manicures!" Alex smiled.
Olivia laughed. "Yeah, she is a lucky little girl." She kissed Summer's head. "Should we go to the art museum now?" Summer nodded and wrapped her arms around Olivia's neck. "Someone is getting tired. We'll try to hurry. That way, we can still get your ice cream."
That Tuesday, Elliot and Olivia were scheduled for their first day of work at the Special Victims Unit. They dropped the kids off at Bernie's and headed off to work. "El, we're not going to be able to see Dickie off to school for his first day." Olivia whined.
"I know, baby. But, if we stayed, then you would've kept him in a death grip. He would've never made it out of the house." Elliot chuckled. "He'll be fine. He's going with William. Casey will pick them up after school and he'll go to my mother's. It's going to work out."
Olivia rolled her eyes. "Yeah, I know. How did he get so old already?"
"I don't know, Liv. I don't even know how we already got an invitation to our five year high school reunion already. It's three months away. They're having it around Christmas." Elliot said.
"Like that isn't busy enough already. It's going to be Kendle's first Christmas. He's almost two months old already. Ugh! Time just goes by too fast." Olivia groaned.
Elliot chuckled at his wife. "Look at me." He waited until she looked at him. "They're going to be fine. It's part of life. The more time you have, here with me, is just more time you get to live. Same with our kids. They're growing up, because someday, they're going to find somebody they love just like I love you. Except for Summer, she's not going near any boys until she knows I'm dead." Olivia chuckled.
