A/N: I had to write something for Valentine's Day. As always, I don't own any of the characters.

Valentine's Day

When Olivia arrived at the Precinct, she wasn't prepared for what she was about to see when she walked into her office: several dozen red roses and Valentine's balloons.

"Liv, I hope those are from Voight and not Tucker hoping you two will get back together."

"Oh, they're definitely from Hank. Ed Tucker never would have been that romantic or thoughtful. Sure, he took Noah and me to Paris but other than that, his idea of a romantic evening was takeout and a movie. I just wish Hank and I could spend Valentine's Day together, since it is our first one as a couple. I almost broke his heart last year when I told him I was in a relationship with Tucker."

"You almost broke mine too."

"Thanks a lot, Fin."

"You're welcome."

Olivia smiled at how much Hank liked to spoil her. There was really no comparison between him and Tucker. She was just sorry it took her so long to admit she was in love with Hank. Olivia dialed Hank's cell to thank him for the roses and balloons but she got his voicemail, so she left him a message. She dialed the number for Intelligence.

"Intelligence. This is Detective Lindsay."

"Hey, Erin."

"Hey, Liv. How are you?"

"I'm great. How are you?"

"Not too bad. Jay and I are planning on spending a quiet night at home."

"Sounds like fun. Is the Sergeant around?"

"No, actually, he's not."

"When he gets back, have him call me. I left him a message on his cell but I really wanted to hear his voice."

"I'm sure he'll call you back as soon as he gets the message."

"I'm sure he will. I'll talk to you later."

"Ok. Happy Valentine's Day!"

"You too."

Olivia hung up and then did whatever paperwork she had. Several hours had passed. SVU had gone to pretty gruesome scene and by the time they got back, Olivia had gone into her office a little disappointed that she still hadn't heard from Hank.

"Hey, Beautiful."

"Hank!"

Olivia threw her coat on the sofa, went over to Hank and sat on his lap. She put her arms around him and kissed him.

"I missed you."

"I missed you too."

"I'm surprised to see you."

"I couldn't pass up the chance to spend Valentine's Day with the woman I love. This is the first date I've had for Valentine's Day in a long time. Do you want to have dinner with me tonight?"

"You know I do."

"Good. How does spaghetti and meatballs sound?"

"Wonderful. It happens to be one of Noah's favorites besides mac 'n cheese, hot dogs and chicken nuggets."

"That's why I wanted to cook for you."

Olivia's cell rang, so she answered it. She hung up when she was done talking.

"Can you pick up Noah at Daycare when you have time? Lucy isn't feeling well, so she's going home."

"Absolutely."

"Thank you."

"You're welcome. I'll stop at the store first and then go get him."

"Good idea. He won't let you out of the cookie aisle without buying him several different kinds."

"His mom loves Oreos."

"Yes, I do."

"Does he have a favorite kind?"

"He eats anything."

"Ok."

"How long are you here?"

"Until Sunday. Do you think you can take some time off?"

"I'm sure something can be arranged."

"Good. Anything you want me to get the store?"

"I don't think so."

"Nothing for dessert?"

"How about you and me in my bed later?"

"I love the sound of that."

"In fact, I have some time now, so we could head there before we get interrupted by my 3-year old."

"Let's go."

Olivia put her coat on and Hank put his jacket on. She grabbed her purse, took Hank's hand and they left the Precinct. They went to Olivia's apartment, dropped their stuff on the sofa and headed straight for the bedroom. They started kissing, undressed each other, got on the bed and made love. Afterwards, Hank had his arms around her and she had her head on his chest.

"Happy Valentine's Day!"

"Happy Valentine's Day to you too."

"I love you."

"I love you too."

"I'm glad you're here."

"I'm glad I am too. I knew I didn't want us spending Valentine's Day apart."

"I'm glad. I was getting worried when I hadn't heard from you. I even called the main number for Intelligence and got Erin."

"I know. I told Erin not to say anything. I knew there was nothing I wanted more than having you in my arms."

"I miss this."

"Me too. Did you ever tell your ex about us?"

"Nope."

"I have something else for you."

"Like what?"

Hank got out of bed and put his pants on before going to get something out of his bag. He then came back into the bedroom.

"He's cute. Thank you."

"You're welcome."

"I love teddy bears."

"I got Noah a monkey."

"He'll love that."

"I think I'm going to take this guy to work with me."

"You ready to go back?"

"No. I don't want to go back. I want to stay like this for the rest of the day. I'm never going to make it through the rest of the day knowing I have you here. Hank kissed Olivia and then they made love again before Hank took her back to work. He dropped her off and headed to the grocery store, while she went up to SVU with her teddy bear.

"I'm back. Did you miss me?"

"Not really."

"Good. I am in such a good mood right now and nothing can ruin it."

"Tucker is in your office."

"Damn it! Except that."

Olivia went into her office.

"What?"

"I thought we were passed that."

"We are."

"Are you busy tonight? I figured we could avoid this corny holiday together."

"I actually have plans."

"With Noah?"

"Sort of. He's included in our plans."

"With your squad?"

"Nope."

"So, you're actually in another relationship?"

"Yep."

"When were you planning to tell me?"

"I didn't know I had to."

Hank stood in the doorway and knocked on Olivia's door.

"Sorry to interrupt. You dropped your phone in the car."

"Thanks. Come on in."

Hank came in and handed Olivia her phone.

"Hank, this is Ed Tucker. Ed, this is Hank Voight."

"Nice to meet you."

"I wish I could say the same. Olivia, you can't be serious. You break things off with me because we weren't on the same page for him? Long distance no less."

"My heart was never completely in it with you and I don't think yours was either."

"Oh, yes, it was. How long were you two actually seeing each other?"

"We just started a month ago. The feelings have always been there though."

"So you break up with me and start up with him?"

"Something like that. Do I regret it? No."

"I at least expected you to wait a while and maybe realize you did want to be with me."

"That won't ever happen. Hank at least wants to spend time with Noah. You never did. I think you better leave."

"I think he better leave."

"I want him here."

Olivia got up, wrapped her arms around Hank and kissed him. Tucker left and then Fin, Rollins, Carisi and Barba came in.

"Lieutenant."

"Huh?"

"We have a meeting with Barba."

"Uh huh. Come back later."

"We have Court this afternoon."

"Fine. I'm sorry. We'll finish this later."

"Ok."

"I love you."

"I love you too."

Hank kissed her again and then he left.

"He is definitely much better for you."

"I know he is. I think I am ready to settle down and get married. I don't know where we'll live but I can see myself spending the rest of my life with that man. I had to be kidding myself when I said I was happy with Tucker."

"You seem a lot happier and you weren't afraid to tell us about this relationship."

"I want this to work more than I have ever wanted anything. He and Noah are so crazy about each other, which is what makes it so special."

"I admit I didn't like Sergeant Voight when I first met him but it's quite obvious he makes you happy."

"Thank you."

They had their meeting with Barba before they headed to Court that afternoon.

Hank held off on fixing dinner until he heard from Olivia. He and Noah were in the kitchen when she got home.

"Hello, my honeys."

"Mommy!"

Noah ran up to Olivia and gave her a hug.

"Hey, my love. It smells wonderful in here."

"Thank you. Pour yourself a glass of wine and relax. Dinner should be ready soon."

"Can I keep you?"

"If that's what you want."

"It's what I want."

Olivia kissed Hank, poured herself a glass of wine and went to relax on the sofa.

"I love when you spoil me."

"Good because I love spoiling you."

Hank finished making dinner and then the 3 of them sat at the table and ate. Hank took care of cleaning up and getting Noah bathed and ready for bed, while he had Olivia go relax in a bubble bath. She took her glass of wine and went into her bathroom. She put her hair up and got her bath ready. Once Noah was ready for bed, Hank brought him in to say goodnight to Olivia.

"Night, Mommy."

"Goodnight."

Noah kissed Olivia and then Hank went to read him a story. Once he was asleep, Hank went to get the chocolate covered strawberries and took them into the bathroom.

"Is he asleep?"

"Yep. He went right to sleep."

"You are so good with him. Are those chocolate covered strawberries?"

"Yep."

Hank fed her one of the berries and then she fed him one.

"Are you going to get in here with me?"

"Sure."

Hank got undressed and joined Olivia in the tub. She leaned back into his chest and he wrapped his arms around her as they relaxed together. After they got out of the tub, they dried off, went into the bedroom and made love before falling asleep in each other's arms. They spent the next few days together as a family and by the time Hank left to go back to Chicago, they were both sure they wanted something more than what they already had.
