After the doctor left, Cragen was the first to talk.

"It's been a long day, go home and get some rest,"He ordered.

Elliot was quick to object," No way, Cap, I'm not leaving."

He wasn't going to budge.

"At least change your damn shirt."

Elliot looked down to see his white button-up saturated with blood, some his but mostly Olivia's.

Black.

Everything was black, but despite the darkness, she felt peaceful.

"Is this what death feels like?" She thought to herself and anyone else around to listen.

"Olivia?"

Who was that? God? Her mom? She didn't know.

"Liv, come on wake up." Pleaded the voice.

There's something in her throat and she can't breath, and she struggled for breath.

"Don't fight the ventilator, Liv." And she didn't anymore.

Finally finding the strength to open her eyes, she saw the person who was talking to her.

It was Elliot.

"Thank god he's okay." She thought.

The nurse he called came to take the breathing tube out, and she tried to talk, but she couldn't.

"Your throat will be sore, so try not to overdue the talking," the nurse told Olivia.

The nurse then left, leaving Elliot and Olivia to themselves.

"God, I'm so sorry Liv."

She squeezed his hand with reassurance, since she couldn't talk.

Elliot was shocked was when they finally let him see her.

Bruises were everywhere, a large cut ran down the side of her face, her arm and leg were in a cast, she looked so tiny and fragile. Not like the strong Olivia he knew.

He ran to her side and grabbed her hand, hoping she would feel it. He talked to her, whispering desperate pleas in her ear.

Then he heard the most beautiful sound, it was Olivia fighting the ventilator. He told her not to fight it, and the nurse took it out.

He then felt guilt pile up on his shoulders.

"God, I'm so sorry, Liv," He said, truly meaning it.

Her hand squeezed his and he felt his heart flutter.

She was okay, at least for now and that's all he needed. He laid his head on her hospital bed gently. They both feel asleep with their hands still linked.
