I added another chapter since I broke my promise and a lot of you seemed a little frustrated because of the cliffy! I hope y'all like this chapter and I will post the next one for sure on Wednesday!
It was a full five minutes before Olivia pulled herself together enough to stand up. She picked up the test and looked at it again
Negative
She didn't know if she should be relieved or devastated. She wanted her own baby. More than anything, but she was almost one-hundred percent positive that Elliot didn't want any more kids.
"Liv. Are you sure you're okay?" Elliot asked through the door, sounding worried.
"Y-yeah. I'm going to get a shower real quick." She replied, still looking at the test.
"Okay. I'll be in the bedroom." He said before she heard him walk away.
She wrapped the test in some toilet paper and threw it in the trash before undressing and turning on the water. She stepped in and let the water cascade over her body. She didn't realize how long she was standing there until she heard another knock on the door.
"Liv..you're scaring me." She heard Elliot say.
At the sound of his voice, she broke down and slid down the wall of the shower.
"Liv? Are you okay?" Elliot asked again.
The only thing she could do was let out a sob.
"Liv. I'm coming in." He said before knocking the door open.
He looked around the bathroom and walked over to the shower, pulling back the curtain.
"Liv baby. What's wrong?" He asked as he turned off the water.
She again answered with a sob that made her whole body shake.
"Oh baby. Come on, let's get you out of there." He said grabbing a towel.
He helped her step out of the tub and wrapped the towel around her. Before she could say anything, he picked her up, bridal style, and carried her to the bedroom, setting her on the bed. He went to the dresser and grabbed one of his big shirts. Walking back over to her, he took the towel from her and slipped the shirt over her head. He threw the towel in the hamper and pulled the covers back. She laid down and he covered her. He turned off the light and crawled in beside her, wrapping his arms around her shaking body. She tried to say something but it was inaudible due to the sobs.
"Shh it's okay. We can talk in the morning." Elliot said before kissing her head and closing his eyes.
Next Morning:
Olivia woke up to an empty bed. She looked over at the clock on her nightstand and saw that it was ten-thirty. She shot up in bed.
'I'm late for work!' She thought.
Before she could stand up, Elliot walked in with a tray of food.
"Hey. You're awake." He said, setting the tray on the nightstand.
"Why didn't you wake me up? I'm late for work!" She said angrily. 'Why am I so moody'
"I called Cragen and said you weren't coming in." Elliot replied calmly.
"What? Why the hell would you do that?!" She yelled.
"Because we have something to talk about." He said.
"What do you mean?" She asked.
He reached into his pajama pant pocket and pulled out the pregnancy test, showing it to her.
"H-how d-did you find that?" She asked.
"It doesn't matter." He said as he sat next to her.
She looked away from him, tears threatening to fall.
"Talk to me, Liv." He said softly.
"What is there to talk about? It's negative." She said, her voice breaking.
"Well aparently it affected you so yes, there is stuff to talk about." He said sternly.
She finally looked up at him, tears rolling down her face.
"I don't know what to feel. I've always wanted my own baby but I know you don't want any more kids and it-"
"Whoa whoa whoa. What makes you think I don't want any more kids?" He cut her off.
"You already have five and now Noah and Calvin." She said, looking back down.
"Liv look at me." He said.
When she didn't, he put his hand underneath her chin and lifted her head to look at him.
"I have five kids with Kathy, Liv. I don't have any with you, which I plan on changing." He told her.
"Really?" She asked with a sniffle.
"Really really." He said. "I want to get married Liv. Have kids with you that can run around the new house. I want a life with you Liv."
Olivia wiped at her eyes.
"I love you." She said with a smile.
"I love you too." Elliot said before kissing her.
She kissed back and he pushed her onto her back on the bed.
"Mom Da- oh uh…"
The couple broke apart abruptly and looked at Calvin who was standing in the doorway with a grumpy Noah on his hip.
"What's wrong Cal?" Elliot asked.
"Um. Noah's teeth hurt again." He said.
"Go back to the living room, I'll be right there.
"Okay." He said before practically running out of the room.
Elliot looked back at Olivia to see her laughing.
"What are you laughing at?" He asked, leaning down and kissing her neck.
"I think we just scarred our son for life." She said before moaning.
"He'll get over it." He said.
He went to kiss her until he heard her stomach grumble. They both chuckled and Elliot kissed her nose.
"You eat, I'll go take care of Noah." He said as he stood up.
She watched him walk out of the room with one thing on her mind.
'I have a family.'
I hope y'all liked the chapter! Leave a review and let me know what you think!
