Alex and Fin had just stepped off the elevator when several nurses rushed past them. They pasted themselves attempting to get out of the way as much as possible when they realized everyone was running into Olivia's room. They chanced a look at each other briefly sharing the fear they suddenly felt before darting off in the direction.

Fin stopped when he entered the room and heard someone shouting for some restraints. A quick look around the room he noticed the doctor was nursing what would be one hell of a shiner later and Olivia was struggling against everyone.

"Liv we're here" Fin said pushing through everyone and coming to the side of her bed thinking she began to panic when they weren't there like promised "You were done with your testing early apparently that's why we weren't here when they wheeled you back in."

Olivia glanced up at him and gritted her teeth. How dare he walk into the room and explain everything away. Just who the hell did he think he was? She waited until he was close enough to reach before she knocked him up side the left side of his face with the metal bed pan that was left for her earlier.

Fin stumbled back and grabbed his face. He was struggling to keep from losing his temper and giving her a what for when he realized Alex was slowly making her way into the room. Even though she was putting on a brave front for everyone else he could see the terror in her eyes.

"Alex" he said jumping between her and Olivia "Wait outside until we get her calmed down."

"Fin let me by I can calm her down." She stated trying to side step the detective and make her way over to Olivia. She couldn't pin point why she thought she could calm Olivia down but somehow she knew.

"Not on your life." He said as he began to push her back some to keep the distance between her and Olivia. He knew if she got close to Liv and was injured she would never forgive herself.

"Let her go before I kill you." Olivia growled seeing Fin put his hands on Alex.

"Fin let me." Alex said looking over his shoulder at Olivia who was being held down by several nurses while they were trying to restrain her arms to the bed with no luck. She had to laugh at the scene. Who would have thought that a woman who almost died had so much strength in her? "She won't hurt me."

"Alex she just knocked me upside the head."

"Probably long overdue as well" She said a she pushed him back and moved past him.

"Olivia calm down please." Alex pleaded as she slowly moved closer to the fighting detective.

"Ma'am please stay back." A nurse ordered.

"Tell her what to do one more time and I'm going to put you through that wall you bitch." Olivia growled finally breaking one arm free.

"Unless you ladies would like to have one hell of a fight on your hands let the blonde through." A voice boomed from the doorway.

Alex glanced over her shoulders and nodded at Elliot who had arrived and saw what was happening.

"We are not liable if she is injured." Someone stated.

"No I am." He growled back towering over the nurse. "Go Alex."

Alex slowly walked up to Olivia's bedside making sure she maintained eye contact with the brunette detective. She took a deep breath and reached out to place her hand on Olivia's shoulder.

"Lay back and relax for me" She ordered "Stop fighting these nurses. They are not going to hurt you or me I promise you."

Olivia did as she was told and took as deep of a breath as she could. She opened her eyes and cringed when she saw the fear in them that Alex was trying to keep at bay.

"I want everyone out of here." Olivia finally said once she knew she could talk without breaking down. "Now."

Alex looked around and motioned for everyone to leave. Fin motioned that he and Stabler would be right outside the door if she needed them. Alex waited till everyone was gone before she took a seat next to Olivia on the bed.

"Want to tell me what that was about?" Alex asked as she ran her fingers through Olivia's hair noticing how long it was getting and that she needed a haircut.

"Alex please I beg you to leave this room and not look back." Olivia said as tears started to pour from her eyes and she looked away "I saw the look in your eyes and I was the cause of it. I can't handle having you terrified of me. Right now I'm certainly not the person you want to be near."

"I'm not leaving."

"I saw the fear in your eyes and I put it there. For your safety leave."

"For your information if I feared for my safety I wouldn't be this close to you. Other than you knocking Fin upside the head and giving everyone the fight of their life why don't I want to be close to you."

"Please don't tell the guys." Olivia pleaded finally looking Alex in the eyes again.

"It will stay in this room I promise."

"I can't explain it but I feel like my temper is always at a boiling point. There are times I honestly want to fight whoever walks through that door. The last thing I want is to have that feeling or act on it with you. I couldn't even tell you what set me off when they went to move me back into my bed."

"Your brain injury."

"What?"

"You have what is called a Traumatic Brain Injury, or TBI, Stephanie told me the other day after you tried to attack her that the part of the brain that was affected controls movement and behavior."

"I don't understand.'

"She has seen people who were the calmest most loving person you have every met turn into the most violent person they have ever seen. If you are feeling angry and bouts of violence that is why. We will get you the therapy that you need for it."

"Why didn't you tell me this sooner?"

"Because I was waiting till the results of this EEG was in. If there had been some improvement there was no need to worry you."

"I wish you would have told me."

"I promise from here on out not to keep anything from you." Alex said smiling as she saw the slight twinkle she always loved returning to Olivia's eyes.

"Thank you but I would still feel better if you stayed away from me."

"Why is that?" Alex asked still confused as to why she shouldn't be near her.

"Because I have become the one person I have worked my entire life not to be, my father."

A/N: I actually didn't think I would get a chance to write tonight since I was off on NYE for the first time since I started working in this field. But I did. Yes the TBI is affecting her behavior. Please remember though the chapters with medical information may not be accurate. I know nothing of the medical field. I do research the information to the best of my ability but we all know the type of information we can get off the internet. PeterPeter I did win the fight. I always win the fight. I may be battered bruised and stuck on desk duty but I win. Truthfully if we don't win the fight our family has to plan our funeral.
