It was Friday again and the group from Chicago arrived in New York. Olivia didn't want Hank to know they were there, so they got rooms at one of the hotels. After they got checked in, they went to SVU to visit everyone. Olivia was in the Squad Room when they arrived.

"Hey."

"Hey. I'm glad all of you could make it. Gabby, Matt, Louie and Sylvie, I'm glad you could make it as well."

"No problem."

"Everyone else sends their best wishes."

"Ok."

"Is everything ready?"

"I hope so."

"Who is in charge of getting him there?"

"I am. Erin, Jay and Olive are going to take the kids while I am keeping him busy with other things. Lucy is going to be there, so she'll keep any eye on the older kids. That way if they get tired, she can take them home."

"That makes sense."

"Olive's parents are in this weekend as well, so if things get to be too crazy for her, they'll take Daniel and the twins to their hotel. Hank knows they're here."

"Hopefully we can pull this off."

"I hope so."

Olivia's phone rang."

"Hey, Erin."

"Hey. Hank is on his way there."

"Thanks for the warning. The group from Chicago is here."

"Tell them I said hi."

"I will."

Olivia hung up the phone.

"Erin said Hank is on his way here."

"Which means we need to go."

"Thank you. I'll let someone know when he leaves. Erin says hi, by the way."

"Ok."

Fin and Carisi said they would meet them somewhere for lunch, so they picked a place and left before Hank arrived. Olivia was in her office doing paperwork when he got there. She didn't notice that he was standing in the doorway.

"You're sexy when you're hard at work."

"I am, huh?"

"Definitely. You also know what seeing you wearing your glasses does to me. We should go away for the weekend."

"We can't do that."

"Why not?"

"These are the last few days that Erin's here."

"So what? I'd rather make love to you all weekend."

"I happen to know that Olive and the kids are spending most of the day tomorrow with her parents and Erin and Jay are spending the day with Noah and Rachel. Carisi is taking Amanda and Jesse for the day, so we'll be alone all day. After spending most of the day in bed, we could go out for a quiet dinner. Just the two of us."

"We could have a quiet dinner at home."

"We'll go out for dinner and then if you're a good boy and don't complain, you will get a surprise when we get home."

"What kind?"

"I can't tell you?"

"Can I get a preview at least?"

"Here?"

"Oh yeah!"

Hank shut and locked the door and then he adjusted the blinds. He sat down on the sofa. Olivia went over and joined him and then they started kissing. They undressed each other and then they made love. Afterwards they were sitting on the floor with their backs against the sofa, the blanket covering them and their arms around each other.

"That was amazing."

"Definitely."

"I love you so much."

"I love you too."

They started kissing and were about to make love again when there was a knock at the door.

"Just a minute please."

They quickly got dressed and then Olivia opened the door. It was Diana and Ed.

"What?"

"You're pleasant."

"Shut up!"

"How are you dressed?"

"What?"

"Look at it."

"What?"

"Your top."

"What about it?"

"It's buttoned wrong."

Olivia looked down at her blouse and turned around to fix it.

"You don't have anything I haven't seen before."

"Don't remind me. I'm done. You can come in now."

Diana and Ed came in and saw Hank sitting on the sofa.

"Well, that explains a lot."

"Hank, I didn't mean anything by what I said."

"Yes, he did."

"It's fine. Where's Kara?"

"She's at your house. I just missed you. Do you two want to have lunch with us?"

"Sure."

Hank got up and went to get Olivia's jacket. He helped her put it on before putting his own jacket on. He took her hand and the 4 of them left for lunch. They arrived at the diner they were going to and sat down. They looked at the menu and then they had their order taken.

"Hank, it's amazing how happy you are now. You didn't seem to have much interest in getting involved with anyone after Camille died."

"I wasn't but then I came here for a case and that all changed. I'm happier than I've been in a long time."

"Good. It's good to see you like this."

"How'd your week with Kara go?"

"Great. I could get used to this dad stuff. It's a lot different spending time with a 10-year old girl that a 2-year old boy. She loves watching sports. We just don't agree on teams though."

"She asked me if she has to give up liking her favorite teams just because she's leaving Chicago. Of course I said no. I just have to make sure she can watch them on TV."

"We have the same thing."

"She's still a little upset with me because I wouldn't let her go to the Cubs championship rally."

"You went, right?"

"Yep. Most of us in Intelligence went, except for Atwater."

Olivia pulled something out of her purse.

"I was going to wait until tomorrow to give this to you but I can't wait."

"What's this?"

"Part of your birthday present."

"You didn't have to get me anything."

"I know you'll love this."

Olivia handed Hank the envelope.

"Happy birthday a little early."

"Thanks, Babe."

Hank opened the envelope.

"Are these for the Home Opener?"

"Yep. I got you 4 tickets. I figured you'd want to take Noah. I first thought about you and me taking Noah and Rachel but I'm not so sure she's ready."

"So, you'd go?"

"Yes."

"I have an idea as to who else we can take as long as it's ok with her mother."

"Oh, she would be absolutely thrilled to have you take her to a Cubs game."

"You ok with that?"

"They're your tickets. If you'd rather take Olinsky or Erin, I'd understand."

"I'd rather take you. Lindsay and Halstead can stay with Rachel."

"Sounds like a plan. There's more."

"What do you mean more?"

"We're in Chicago until Tuesday and from there, we're headed to LA to see Nick and go to Disneyland. We'll see other stuff out there too."

"Just the 4 of us?"

"Yes."

Hank gave Olivia a kiss.

You're amazing. You know that?"

"So, do you like your present?"

"I love it and I love you."

"I love you too."

"Diana, it's a night game."

"That's fine. She's fine with getting up. I'll make sure she takes a nap when she gets home from school. Where are your seats?"

"The section behind Home Plate."

"Wow! Olivia went all out."

"It's from Erin Jay, Olive and all the kids too."

"If we were still together, what would you have gotten me? Mets tickets?"

"I don't know. You're not my problem anymore."

"I asked if we were still together."

"Don't be so grouchy. I said I didn't know."

"Now who's being grouchy? More like bitchy."

"Once an ass, always an ass."

"I still know people with IAB don't forget."

"So do I."

Olivia started pouting.

"Olivia, I'm sorry."

"No, you're not."

"I am. Please forgive me."

"I'll think about it."

Their food arrived and then they ate. Once they ate, they left to head back. As they were walking out to the car, someone in a car started shooting at them.

"Duck!"

The 4 of them ducked next to the car. The windshield got hit and glass shattered all over. Olivia called for backup and gave a description of the car.

"Is everyone ok?"

"Yeah. You?"

"Fine."

Hank wrapped his arms around Olivia.

"This is what I worry about."

A patrol car arrived, which turned out to be Officer Harrison.

"What happened?"

"We left the diner after having lunch and when we came out, someone driving by started shooting at us."

"Is anyone hurt?"

"No. The windshield got hit though."

The car came by again.

"That's it. That's the car."

Jeff got back in his squad and went after the car. Several other squads went after it as well. The 4 of them got into the car and headed that way. The person that shot at them had lost control of the car and it flipped over. The 4 of them arrived at the scene.

"Well?"

"He's dead. There's no pulse."

The Fire Department and paramedics arrived. When they pulled the guy out, both Diana and Hank knew who he was.

"How'd he track me down?"

"He's dead now."

"He still has his Associates. I am so glad Kara is here."

"Who is this guy?"

"He was someone we investigated in Chicago and he had been in prison. Upon his conviction and sentencing, he threatened me and said he would fine me and kill me and my family. He obviously knows where I am."

Hank called Erin to check on Kara and told her what was going on. Then he hung up.

"Erin said Kara's fine."

"If you have to stay with me, you can stay with me. You don't need to be by yourself."

"I'll think about it."

They drove back to the 16th and went up to SVU. Fin and Carisi were back. Everyone went into Olivia's office as Ed got a phone call. Diana and Hank both went to the washroom and by the time they came back, Ed was off the phone.

"Everything ok?"

"Yeah. I have a meeting at 1PP this afternoon."

"About your transfer to Conviction Integrity?"

"Actually, I'm not going to accept it. I've been thinking about it this last week and as tempting as it sounds, I decided I want to put my papers in and retire."

"That's a shock."

"After spending this last week with Kara, it's been all I can think about. If you'll allow me to, I'd like to be a bigger part of her life once she moves here."

"I'm sure something can be arranged."

"I had thought about doing this a year ago at the time of the investigation, so I wouldn't lose my pension. I also thought about doing it to give me more time with Noah but obviously that didn't happen."

"Besides marrying Olivia, retiring was the best decision I made. I miss it sometimes but like being home with the kids and grandkids. It does give me more time with my better half if she doesn't get called for a case."

"Ed, I'm happy for you."

"Thanks."

"When are you doing this?"

"My plan is by the end of June."

"Good for you."

Olivia started going through the mail on her desk. She saw an envelope addressed to Fin.

"FIN."

Fin came into Olivia's office.

"What?"

"This is for you."

"What is it?"

"It's from the NYPD."

Fin took the envelope from Olivia and opened it.
