A/N: For this chapter, Hank and Olivia have been in a relationship since just after the November 2014 Crossover and the time frame is between Seasons 16 and 17 but Erin did not quit her job after Nadia's death. As always, I don't own any of the characters.

Breaking Up & Making Up

"Why the hell is it always me that has to travel? You never come to Chicago unless it's for work but I always have to go to New York. It isn't fair, Olivia."

"Well, that's what happens when we decided to get into a long distance relationship. Sacrifices have to be made."

"Well, I shouldn't be the only one. Relationships are all about compromise."

"I am well aware of that."

"Obviously, you are never willing to compromise, so that's why you have had so many failed relationships."

"And you're such an expert on relationships."

"I'd rather be in one or two good relationships than multiple failed relationships any day. I was also married for over 20 years, so that obviously proves that I know more about relationships than you do."

"You're an ass."

"You know what? I don't have time for this relationship if you can't rearrange your life at least one weekend a month to come here. As it is, it's been over a month since we have seen each other."

"I'm well aware of that but you're not ending things with me. I'm ending things with you."

"I don't give a crap who ends it. I'm done."

Hank hung up and threw his phone. Then Erin came in.

"Everything ok?"

"None of your damn business."

Hank got his jacket, picked up his phone and left. Erin called Olivia but got her voicemail, so she left her a message. The phone on Erin's desk rang.

"Intelligence Unit. Detective Lindsay."

"Erin, it's Amanda Rollins."

"Hey, Amanda. What's going on?"

"Not too bad. How are you doin'?

"I'm ok. It's still been hard but I'm trying to take it one day at a time. Hank has been pretty supportive of everything and so has Jay. I took a couple weeks off to get myself together and I talk to Liv quite often."

"Good. We've all been pretty worried about you. I think Benson and Voight got into an argument. Liv stormed off in tears without saying anything to anyone."

"I kind of figured that. He did the same thing. I called and left her a message."

"If any of us ask her how she is, she tells us to mind our own business."

"Hank is always like that."

"It has been a month since they have seen each other."

"I think Hank is upset because he seems to be the only one that wants to travel. The last time she was here was the Yates thing and she only seems to be here when it's work related. She and Noah did come here for Christmas, since that's when she met Justin and Olive. He was there right after she adopted Noah."

"Even though we've been short-handed since Amaro left, she's pretty much on desk duty. She's also lookin' pretty worn out in the morning."

"How long has this been?"

"A few weeks maybe."

Erin went into Hank's office and shut the door.

"If she is on desk duty and worn out, that could mean she's pregnant."

"This is serious. I haven't told anyone yet but I'm pregnant."

"Amanda, that's great! Congratulations!"

"Thanks. You're the first person I've told. I'd like to keep it that way for now."

"Ok."

Erin's cell rang.

"My cell is ringing. It's Liv. I have to go."

"Let us know if you find anything out."

"I will."

Erin hung up with Amanda and answered her cell.

"Hey, Liv."

"Hey."

"You ok?"

"Not really. Hank and I broke up. This long distance thing is too hard. We haven't seen each other in a month."

"Do you love him?"

"You know I do."

"I just talked to Rollins. She said you're on desk duty. What's up with that?"

"I wasn't going to tell anyone until I told Hank, so please don't say anything to anyone, especially him. He needs to hear this from me."

"I'm in his office. He stormed out of here and didn't say where she was going."

"Me too. I went home and had Lucy take Noah to the park for a while."

"What did you want to tell me?"

"I'm pregnant. 10 weeks to be exact."

"That's awesome! He is going to be so excited."

"I don't know how to tell him. I don't want us back together because of the baby. I want us back together because we love each other."

"You can't keep him from his kid though."

"Oh, I know and I don't want to. I want us to raise our child in the same city and preferably in the same house. I'm not ready to leave New York and I know he's not ready to leave Chicago. I don't think he loves me anymore."

"Liv, don't say that. You know he loves you."

"Sometimes I wonder. I just don't want him to think he has to be with me because of the baby. That's the last thing I want. There is someone knocking at the door, so I need to go."

"Ok. Call if you need anything."

"I will."

Olivia hung up the phone and went to answer the door. It was Justin.

"Justin."

"Hey, Olivia. Dad's not here, is he?"

"No. We broke up."

"What! Why?"

"We haven't seen each other as often as we'd like to and he's mad because he's been here more than I've been to Chicago. Sorry, come in."

"Thanks. Where's Noah?"

"His nanny took him to the park for a while. Did you bring Olive and Daniel?"

"I did. They're at the hotel."

Olivia and Justin went over to the sofa.

"Can I get you anything?"

"Some coffee maybe."

"Sure."

Olivia made Justin some coffee and she made herself some tea. Justin noticed her very small bump.

"Olivia, can I ask you something?"

"Of course."

"Does Dad know about the baby?"

"No, not yet. I didn't realize it was that noticeable yet."

"It kind of is. Are you going to tell him?"

"I will but I don't want us together just because of the baby. I want us together because we love each other and want to be together. I guess I do need to go to Chicago."

"We're heading there tomorrow anyway. If you want, Olive and I can watch Noah, while you and Dad patch things up."

"That would be great. Thank you."

"No problem."

Olivia looked up the flight information and she was able to get her and Noah on the same flight as Justin, Olive and Daniel. Justin went back to the hotel after Lucy came back with Noah. Justin called Erin to find out if she got Hank to tell her anything. She said no and he told her they were coming to Chicago and bringing Olivia and Noah with them.

The next morning, everyone got up and got ready to head to the airport. Olivia texted Fin and Lucy and told them they'd be gone for a few days. The flight had taken off and from that moment, Olivia was starting to dread it. The only one that knew they were coming was Erin. Hank was even grumpier than normal and not in the mood to deal with anyone. He had gotten an engagement ring for Olivia but ended up putting it in the safe in his basement until he got around to returning it. After the things they had said to each other, there was no way she'd ever accept anything from him. He knew he was wrong for saying what he said but he didn't think she'd ever be able to forgive him. He thought about calling her just to hear her voice but he decided against it.

They arrived in Chicago and got their luggage. Justin got a rental and then drove to the District. They went inside and Trudy buzzed them in to go up to Intelligence. Everyone except Hank was in the Squad Room working on a case. Hank was in his office. He was trying to get work done but he couldn't stop thinking about Olivia, not realizing she was just in the other room. Noah squirmed out of Olivia's arms and ran into Hank's office. Hank had his elbow on his desk and his hand on his forehead.

"Hi."

"Oh, hey, Noah."

Noah crawled up on Hank's lap and gave him a hug.

"Miss you."

"I miss you too, kiddo."

Hank stood up and took Noah back out to the Squad Room. He saw Olivia, who looked as beautiful as ever. She glanced up at him with her bashful smile just like she had the first time she came to Chicago and stole his heart. Here they were 7 months later and he didn't know if he was coming or going with her but he couldn't keep his eyes off of her. Erin took Noah, so Hank could hug his son and daughter-in-law and hold his grandson.

"Can we talk?"

"Sure. Does my office work?"

"No. Not here."

"Ok."

"We'll take Noah."

"Thanks."

"Sure."

Hank and Olivia left and went somewhere they could talk. They ended up going to a diner to grab something to eat. Olivia had intentionally worn a tighter fitting top, so maybe Hank would notice her small bump but so far, he hadn't. When they arrived, Hank got out and went to open the passenger door for Olivia. For the first time, he saw her bump.

"You're…I mean we're…"

"Yeah. 10 weeks. Erin and Justin both know. I actually wanted to tell you before they found out but after what happened last night, I wasn't sure how to tell you."

Hank opened the door and they went in. They sat down, looked at the menu and waited to have their order taken. Once they had their order taken, the waitress went to get their drinks and brought them to the table.

"Last night was miserable for me. After I put Noah to bed, I cried myself to sleep. I know I have always been emotional but I am already noticing that my hormones are all over the place."

"Is everything ok?"

"So far, yeah."

"I had a hard time last night too. The only thing that kept going through my head was that I didn't want us to end our relationship."

"I don't either. I don't want you to think you have to be with me just because of the baby. I want you to want to be with me because we love each other. I do want us to figure out what we plan to do because I want us to raise our children in the same city and I actually do prefer in the same house. That is if you can put up with me and my mood swings, which I'm guessing are going to get worse."

"I don't want to be with you just because of the baby. I love you and have since the moment you threatened to arrest me. This long distance thing is a lot harder than I thought it would be but we do need to do what's best for us and our kids and that's being together all the time. I never should have said what I said to you last night about you not being able to compromise in your relationships and that's why they have all failed."

"In a way, I don't blame you for saying that and I should have been more willing to come here at least once a month. I love you and working undercover with you did it for me. I felt an immediate connection between us and I knew this relationship would have been a challenge because we were in different cities but I wanted it to work. I always wanted a family of my own and that finally came true when Noah came into my life. I comfort him when he's sick or has a bad dream but the thing is, who's going to comfort me when I need it? I still have bad dreams because of what Lewis did to me. Lately, I have only felt safe when I am with you."

"So, you can forgive me?"

"I can forgive you if you can forgive me."

"I forgive you too."

"We have a lot of catching up to do in the month we've been apart."

"Yeah, we do."

"I love you."

"I love you too."

Hank took her hand in his and then they both leaned toward each other and kissed. They got their food and after they ate, Hank drove home. Olivia went up to the bedroom, while Hank went down to the basement to get her engagement ring out of the safe. He went to join her in the bedroom and shut and locked the door. He sat on the bed and they started kissing before they undressed each other and made love. Afterwards, he had his arms around her and she had her head on his chest. He moved his hand to her belly and then they laced their fingers together.

"I think we needed this."

"We sure did. I have something I want to give you."

"Oh, I think you've already given me enough."

Hank grabbed the ring box and handed it to Olivia.

"It would make me happy if you'd be my wife. Olivia, will you marry me?"

"Yes!"

Hank put the ring on her finger and then they kissed and made love again. They fell asleep for a while and by the time they woke up, Justin, Olive and the boys were back.

"Hey, Dad."

"Hey."

"I take you two are ok?"

"We're great. We're engaged."

"Congratulations!"

"Thanks."

"Have you two decided where you'll be living?"

"No but we know that's the main thing we're going to have to deal with."

"I was thinking. The entire family is here now, so is there any reason why we can do this as soon as possible? I can take a few days off if we wanted to go somewhere for a few days."

"So, just the 4 of us, Erin and the boys?"

"Yeah. We can have a reception later once we decide where we're living."

"We're having a hard enough time being in a long distance relationship but you want to try to have a long distance marriage?"

"It wasn't one of my better ideas but I am trying to compromise."

"Yeah, you are. If I decide to go to New York permanently, is there somewhere for me to go?"

"I'll find you something but would you mind temporarily taking over SVU while I'm on desk duty and until I'm back from Maternity Leave?"

"I'm thinking something could be arranged."

"You just have to promise me you'll behave. I'm finally starting to get in IAB's good graces and trust me, Lieutenant Tucker, who's in charge of IAB, is a pain in the ass about everything."

"You have my word."

Hank looked at his watch.

"I think we can still get a Marriage License before they close tonight."

"Then let's go."

"Ok."

Hank and Olivia left and went to go apply for their Marriage License and were able to get one. Hank ran into one of the Judges he knew and asked if he could marry them. He agreed. Hank called Erin and Justin, so they could all go find something to wear and get the rings before they went out to dinner as a family. Hank also made reservations at one of the more expensive hotels for a few days instead of trying to plan an actual honeymoon on such short notice.

The next day, they went to get married and had a celebration with just the family. The newlyweds spent a few days at the hotel and then before Olivia and Noah went back to New York, they went to the District and told his squad they were married. Hank went back to New York with Olivia and Noah, so they could tell her squad they were married. They decided to wait a few more weeks until they told everyone about the baby. Hank put in for a transfer to NYPD, since he knew he needed to be with his wife and son. His squad was shocked at first but wished him well and he extended an invitation for everyone to come visit them in New York.
