Prompt #20: Elliot takes Olivia to Paris on their honeymoon. (Tucker never took her there, she was never with Tucker)

Parisian Honeymoon

~oOo~

Olivia wakes up the morning after her wedding and turns on her side. "Good morning."

Elliot smiles. "Good morning, Mrs. Stabler." He kisses her softly. "Do you have your passport?"

She nods. "Why?"

"You'll see. Just get ready. We have to go soon."

She glares at him. "Elliot Stabler, you know I hate surprises."

"You'll love this one though. I promise."

"What do I pack?"

"A fancy dress or two and some good walking shoes and casual clothes. Oh and wear something comfy on the plane."

She nods and gets up. "Want some coffee?"

"Sure."

As she walks by Noah's room, she pokes her head in and smiles. "Good morning, sweet boy."

"Hi Mama. We going today."

She nods. "Yes we are! Where are we going?"

"Pawis."

"Paris huh?"

Noah nods. "Daddy say suwpwise, Mama."

"It is a surprise. And Mama doesn't like surprises." She lifts him up. "Let's get you ready then you can help fix coffee."

"Yay!"

Olivia laughs and gets him dressed.

"Ok sweet boy. Let's go." She takes him into the kitchen and puts him on the counter while she fixes the coffee. "Ready to turn it on?"

Noah nods. "Hewp pwease."

Olivia takes his finger and helps him turn the coffee maker on. "Go tell Daddy that the coffee will be ready soon." She sets him down and he takes off for Elliot.

"Daddy! Up! Mama say up."

Elliot grabs Noah and puts him on the bed next to him. "Did you tell Mama where we are going?"

Noah shakes his head. "No. Suwpwise Mama."

Elliot smiles. "That's right."

Noah snuggles close to Elliot. "Daddy I sweep on da pwane?"

He nods. "Definitely. It's a long flight. Mama will probably fall asleep too."

Olivia comes back in the bedroom. "Ok you two. I'm gonna get some water and dump it on you if you don't get out of bed soon. What time is our flight?"

"We have a few hours."

She nods. "Go eat and I'll pack."

Elliot groans. "We don't want to get up Mama."

She rolls her eyes. "Tough. I want to get on the plane and go wherever it is."

"Pawis Mama! I say dat."

Elliot laughs. "Oh you..." he tickles Noah.

"Daddy no…"

Olivia smiles and starts packing.

The boys go eat and she goes to pack for Noah.

"Okay, boys. Let's go."

Elliot goes to pack and grab everything they'd need.

Noah looks at Liv. "Mama, books?"

She nods. "I got your tablet with lots of books on it and your headphones. There's games to play too."

"Otay. Tank you."

"You're welcome, sweet boy." She grabs his teddy and his blanket. "Let's go."

Elliot comes back with their bags. "Let's go."

Noah takes Olivia's hand. "Daddy, Mama hand."

Elliot smiles. "I will when we get to the airport."

Once they get to the airport and their bags are dropped off, Elliot scoops Noah up and takes Liv's hand.

As they get to security, Elliot sets Noah down. "Noah, you have to go through that machine right there by yourself but wait for me or mama, ok? Don't run off."

"Otay Daddy. I be good."

He gets the bags on the belt and hands Noah his passport. "Here you go, bud. Wait for me and mama, ok?"

The agent smiles. "Come on little man."

"I Noah."

"Hi Noah. You did so good. Where's mama and daddy?"

He points to them. "Daddy say I go awone an' wait fow dem."

Elliot goes through and smiles. "Good job, buddy. I'll get you a treat, ok?"

"Tank you, Daddy."

Olivia makes it through security and smiles. "Good job, Noah. Let's go get a snack and go to the gate."

Elliot takes her hand and scoops up Noah. As they walk to the food court, Noah looks around. "Dats awot food."

They both laugh. "Yes it is, sweet boy. What do you want?"

Noah looks around. "Wunch?"

Olivia nods. "It's just about lunch time, yes."

"Chicky, pease."

Elliot laughs. "Should've known. I'll get it for you buddy. What do you want to drink?"

"Miwk, pwease. Chocy."

He nods. "What about you, baby?"

"Just a sandwich or something. You know."

"Ok. Let's get you guys to the gate and I'll come back and get the food."

They walk down to the gate and Elliot sets Noah down by Liv. "Stay by Mama."

"I be hewe." He climbs up on Olivia's lap. "Mama, stowy pwease."

She nods and grabs his tablet. "What story do you want?" She flips over to the books they had on there and he looks at the pictures.

"Dis one, Mama." He points to Peter Rabbit.

"Oh that's a good one, baby. You comfy?"

He nods and snuggles in.

She kisses the top of his head and starts reading. Noah starts to drift off to sleep.

She slides his tablet back in his bag.

Elliot comes back with their lunch and a cookie for Noah.

"He's asleep."

"I could tell. His lunch will keep though."

Elliot sits beside them and kisses her cheek. "Want me to take him?"

"He's fine. Should've brought his stroller."

"I will make sure we get a rental one there."

She adjusts Noah so he's up against her shoulder as she eats her lunch. "Done this a time or two when he was little."

"You're an old pro at that."

She smiles. "I'm glad you're here with us."

"Nowhere else I would rather be."

"El…why'd you leave?"

He sighs. "I had to. Had to protect your career."

"But why didn't you tell me first? Why'd you come back two years later?"

He kisses her softly. "Honestly? I missed you. And I heard about…you know. Knew you'd need me and came home."

She nods. "I'm glad you did. And I need you all the time. When you left, my world was upside down. Cragen had to tell me you put your papers in, I had to clean out your locker and desk…"

He squeezes her knee. "I'm here and I'm not leaving you again. Not til my dying breath."

"Good. Because you know if you did I would come after you..."

He nods. "I know. You're stuck with me forever, Mrs. Stabler."

"I like that."

"Me too."

Noah wakes up. "Mama..pwane?"

"Soon, baby. Daddy brought your lunch. Ready to eat?"

He nods. "Pwease."

She hands him to Elliot. "Go see Daddy while I get it set for you."

"Have a good nap buddy?"

He nods. "Mama stowy."

"Mama read you a story? Did you tell her thank you?"

"Tank mama"

"You're welcome, baby. Want to sit with Daddy or me while you eat?"

"Daddy."

She sets his food on the table between them. "There you go, baby."

He starts to eat. "Mama? Chocy?"

She smiles and hands him the milk.

Just as Noah finishes his lunch, the agent at the gate comes over the PA. "We will begin boarding families and those in rows W to Z.

"Come on, boys. That's us."

She grabs her bag and Noah's bag. "Coming, babe?"

He nods and grabs his bag.

She sets Noah on the ground. "Don't let go of my hand unless you have to, ok?"

Noah nods. "I be good Mama."

They hand their boarding passes to the agent and once they get down the jetway, one of the employees sees Noah.

"Hi. Would your son like to come see the cockpit before we take off?"

Olivia smiles. "I'm sure he would."

"I Noah. Pwease Mama?"

She nods. "Sure honey."

"Hi Noah! I'm Stephanie."

"Hi!" He follows her in the cockpit. "Wow. Dis coo."

She laughs. "Would you like to sit in the chair for a second? Don't touch anything..."

He nods. "Pease."

She puts him on the chair and Olivia snaps a picture.

The captain comes in and smiles. "Now, who do we have in my seat?"

"Hi! I Noah! Dat my Mama."

"Well hello there Noah. I'm Dan. I'm in charge of getting you and your Mama to Paris."

"Mama an Daddy 'neymoon."

"Ooh they're on their honeymoon?"

Noah nods. "Daddy say suwpwise Mama but I say we go Pawis Mama."

"Oh you told her and it was a surprise?"

Noah nods. "Mama no like."

Olivia laughs. "He's right. I don't like surprises."

"I get that. Noah, thanks for coming to see me. I need to get the plane set up to take us to Paris. When we get to Paris, I'd like to get a picture with you if that's ok with Mom."

Olivia nods. "That's perfect. Thank you so much."

She takes Noah to their seats where Elliot is waiting. "Someone got to go sit in the cockpit."

"Oh he did? That's awesome, buddy."

Noah nods. "He say pictuwe when pwane in Pawis."

"Oh that will be awesome. We'll have to print it and give it to them if they fly us back home."

She helps Noah get settled in the window seat and puts their bags away. "El…you ok?"

He nods. "I'm fine."

She leans over and whispers in his ear. "I know that look and you know I only want you." She kisses him lightly. "I love you."

"I love you too." He kisses her back.

She leans her head against his shoulder while the plane taxis. "What are we going to do when we get there?"

"First thing, we need to go check in at the hotel and then we'll just take it easy."

"Sounds good."

"We have reservations for the top of the Eiffel Tower one day too. I'll look at my email when we get there."

"Ok. What else?"

"We'll just take it day by day."

She nods. "Sounds good."

The plane takes off and Noah smiles and looks out the window. "Mama wook.."

She smiles at him. "You like that, sweet boy?"

"Yeah. Dis coo, Mama"

"Yes it is. You want your tablet to play games or watch a movie?"

He nods. "Pease."

She hands him his headphones and tablet. "What do you want to do first, baby?"

He points to a movie.

"Movie it is. Which one?"

He looks at the choices and points to one with a dinosaur.

"Good choice. Tap Daddy's shoulder if you need anything, ok?"

Noah nods. "Otay mama. Tanks."

"You're welcome, my love."

Elliot smiles and raises the arm rest between them. "You ok?"

She nods and lays her head on his chest. "I'm great. I've got my two guys with me...got this gorgeous ring on my finger."

Elliot holds her closer. "As soon as I saw it I knew it belonged on your finger."

"I love it."

He rubs her arm lightly. "Talk to me. What's wrong?"

"Nothing. Still can't believe it. What did I do to deserve you?"

"Easy...you love me."

"Forever."

Noah tapped Elliot's shoulder.

"Whatcha need, bud?"

"Bankie an Teddy pwease."

Elliot nods and hands them to him.

"Tank Daddy."

Noah drifts off to sleep and Olivia follows a bit later.

Hours later, Elliot wakes Olivia up. "Livvie, wake up, baby. We're landing soon."

She yawns. "Thanks. Let him sleep til we land."

He nods. "Ok."

She starts getting things together. Once the plane arrives at the gate, she wakes Noah up. "Hey, sweet boy. We're here. Time to wake up."

"Mama?"

"Hey, baby. Gotta get up so you can take your picture."

Noah nods. "Otay. I up."

"Good boy."

They wait for the other passengers to get off and they make their way up to the front.

"Tank you."

Dan smiles. "You're welcome Noah. Where should we take the picture?"

Noah looks at Olivia. "Mama?"

Olivia looks around. "How about here in the first row?"

Elliot nods. "Perfect."

Everyone sits down and Noah climbs up in Dan's lap.

"Say fuzzy pickles."

Noah laughs and Liv snaps the picture. "Good job, baby."

She opens it and air drops it to Elliot.

He smiles and shows it to the crew. "Thank you for the amazing flight."

Dan nods. "You're very welcome. Hope to see you again soon."

"We'll be here a week. Hopefully you'll be our crew on the way back."

"I hope so too. Have a great honeymoon."

"Thank you."

"Bye bye!" Noah takes Liv's hand and waves at them.

"Bye Noah!"

The walk to customs and Liv scoops Noah up. "Hi. I Noah."

The agent smiles. "Hi. What are you doing in Paris?"

"I wif Mama and Daddy on 'neymoon."

He hugs Liv tight. "Dis Mama."

She hands the agent both their passports.

The agent looks them over and stamps them. "Enjoy your honeymoon."

"Thanks."

Elliot comes over to the agent and his passport is stamped quickly.

They all walk to baggage claim and grab their bags.

Olivia sets Noah down. "Stay close baby."

"I hewe Mama. I no go."

Elliot smiles. "What do you want to do tonight?"

"Let's find a cafe or something and take a picnic somewhere."

"Sounds good to me."

They head to the hotel and Elliot checks them in. He holds his hand out for Liv and they head up to their room. Noah walks in the room and smiles. "Dis coo, Mama."

"It's amazing huh?"

Elliot puts their bags against the wall for the time being. He opens the door to the balcony and Noah runs out. "Wow! Daddy, what dat?"

He smiles. "That's the Eiffel Tower. We are going there this week."

"It pwetty."

"Yes it is."

"Mama pwetty too."

"Mama is beautiful." Elliot picks Noah up so he can see better.

Liv gets her phone and makes sure the sounds are off before snapping a picture.

"You boys want to go explore and find some place for a picnic before someone needs to go to bed?"

Noah nods. "Pease Mama. Bankie?"

"No baby. Leave your blanket here. It'll be safe. We'll get a big blanket for the picnic.

"Otay."

Liv grabs her purse. "Let's go."

Elliot smiles at her.

"What?"

"Just thinking how lucky we are."

"Yes we are."

He reaches for her hand and pulls her towards him.

"El…"

"Yes?"

She shakes her head. "Not now."

"What? Just wanted to hug you."

"Oh. I thought…"

"Later."

She nods and hugs him.

Noah looks at them. "We go?"

They nod. "Yeah, sweet boy. Let's go."

~oOo~

The week goes by. They went to the love lock bridge and put one on, to the top of the Eiffel Tower, a few picnics, to see Notre Dame. The night before the flight home, they found a frame and printed out the picture they took of Noah once they landed in Paris when they arrived.

Once they arrive at the airport, Noah runs to the window at their gate.

Olivia smiles. "Having fun, baby?"

"Pwane, Mama."

"Yeah. We are getting on the plane."

Elliot smiles. "Did you have fun this week?"

Noah nods. "Fun daddy. Home?"

"Time to go home. But we'll come back some day. Promise."

"Otay."

The flight crew for the flight back comes up to the gate. "Noah.."

He looks up and smiles. "Hi! You pwane home?"

Dan nods. "Yes I'm flying the plane back home."

"Yay!"

He looks to Olivia. "Mama pwesent.."

She nods and hands him the gift bag. "Be careful, baby."

Noah carefully takes the bag and walks over to Dan.

Dan smiles and takes the bag. "This for me?"

"Yes. Mama say we pwesent fow you."

Dan opens it and smiles. "It's going on my dresser at my house when I get home. Thank you."

"You wetome."

"Did you have fun?"

Noah nods as they announce the plane is arriving.

"Noah, I have to go get ready to fly the plane home. I'll see you on the plane ok?"

"Otay. Bye bye." He heads over to where Liv and Elliot are sitting. "He go bye bye."

"We'll see him on the plane." Liv lifts him up on her lap and he cuddles close.

"You're a mommy's boy huh bud?"

Noah smiles. "My Mama."

She smiles and rubs his back. "My Noah. Daddy wants to ask you a question..."

Elliot smiles. "You know how Mama has my last name?"

"Stabwew."

He laughs. "Yes. Stabler. Would you like your last name to be Stabler too?"

He nods. "Pease!"

"Ok. I'll take care of it when we get back."

Noah smiles and yawns. "Seepy Mama."

She grabs his blanket and hands it to him. "There you go, baby."

"Tank you." He drifts off to sleep.

She looks over at Elliot. "How'd I get so lucky?"

"Didn't I tell you years ago you were meant to be a mom?"

She nods. "Yeah. I just thought…"

"I know." He kisses her softly. "We were meant to be together. One way or another, we would've ended up together."

"We were."

They finally call for families and the furthest back rows.

"Let's go."

Elliot stands up and grabs everything. "Right behind you, baby."

"Thanks."

They walk by the cockpit and Dan smiles. "Thank you for the picture."

"You're very welcome. Hopefully he'll be awake when we land."

"I hope so. We have a present for him."

"Thank you. We'll see you when we land."

"Ok."

They head to their seats and Liv gets Noah settled in the window seat and gives him his teddy and blanket.

Elliot sits next to him and then Liv finally sits down.

"You ok?"

She nods. "Yeah. Thank you for the surprise. Even though Noah told me."

"You're welcome. I wanted to make sure you had the honeymoon you deserved."

"I'm glad you did."

He moves the arm rest up and lifts his arm up. She smiles and lays her head on his chest. "Better?"

She nods. "Perfect."

The passengers finish boarding and the plane takes off and Olivia drifts off to sleep.

A little bit before they land, Elliot kisses the top of her head. "Baby, wake up...gonna land soon."

"Hmm…already?"

"Yeah. You and Noah slept the whole time."

"Wow..."

"Yeah."

"Noah...wake up baby. We're home."

"Mama?"

"Hi, baby. Did you sleep good?"

He nods. "I sweep wong time."

"Yes you did. So did Mama."

The plane lands and they taxi over to the gate.

"Let's wait for everyone to leave. Mr. Dan has a present for you."

Noah nods. "Otay."

Once everyone else clears out, they make their way up to the front. "Hi!"

Dan smiles. "Hi Noah. You fell asleep quick, huh?"

Noah nods. "Mama seep too."

Olivia smiles. "Yes, I did."

Dan reaches in his pocket. "Noah, we got you a little present."

"Tank you!" Noah takes it. "Mama hewp pease."

"Sure baby." She helps him open it. Inside the box is a set of wings with his name on it.

"Wow. Tank you!"

"You're welcome. Come see us again ok?"

Noah nods. "Otay!"

"Thank you, guys. For everything. He didn't have the best start to life but I'm determined to make the rest of his childhood everything he deserves."

"And you're off to a good start. We aren't based here in New York but we do have overnights sometimes. Would it be ok if we hung out with him?"

"Pease mama."

"Of course. Just call me at SVU. We're at the sixteenth precinct."

"And I just ask for Olivia?"

"Ask for Sergeant Benson. I'm keeping my maiden name for work since Elliot works for the department too."

"Good way to avoid confusion."

"We thought so."

Olivia hands him her card. "My email is on there too if that's easier."

"Thank you."

She nods. "Have a safe flight wherever you're headed next."

"See you next trip."

Liv takes Noah and most of their stuff to customs and they clear it easily. Once they get to baggage claim, she sits down on a bench.

"You ok, baby?"

She nods. "Yeah I'm fine. Easier to sit with him on my lap if we aren't walking."

"I understand that."

Noah cuddles in. "Mama, home?"

"Soon baby. We have to get our bags."

Elliot grabs them and rolls them over to the bench. "Ready to go?"

They both nod. Elliot helps Liv up and they head out the door to start their lives together as one big family.
