A/N: This is the second part of the previous chapter titled "Alone". I don't own any of the characters except my own.
Together
A couple months later, Hank had moved to New York to be with his wife and son. They didn't have a big wedding but they were able to share it with both of their squads. Even Olive and Daniel flew in to share the day with them. They had had a baby shower for Olivia at the same time. Hank had decided to move to New York to avoid an argument with Olivia, especially one he knew he'd never win. He agreed to temporarily take over SVU, which Fin was fine with. Olivia was on bedrest for the remainder of her pregnancy. They had found a bigger place, so Hank was trying to get the nursery ready when he wasn't at the Precinct.
Several weeks later, Hank and Fin were trying to get the paperwork caught up, while Rollins and Carisi were at the hospital talking to a victim. Hank's cell rang.
"Hey, Beautiful."
"It's time. You need to come get me because Lucy just left to pick up Noah at school."
"Ok. I'll be home shortly."
"Ok."
Hank hung up the phone.
"I need to go. She's in labor and Lucy just left to pick up Noah at school."
"No problem. Let us know what's goin' on. We'll come by to see her later."
"She'll appreciate that."
Hank left and went home to get Olivia. Fin called Melinda and Barba to tell them that she was headed to the hospital. He also texted Erin. Hank went to get Olivia and helped her out to the SUV before driving her to the hospital. They took her up to the room that and she got hooked up to the monitor. Then the waiting began. Hank stayed by her side the entire time. Fin, Rollins, Carisi, Lucy and Noah were all in the waiting room.
"When is my baby sister coming?"
"That's what we're waiting for."
The entire group from Chicago arrived in New York and went straight to the hospital.
"Hey."
"Hey. You didn't say you were comin'."
"Yeah, I know. Is he behaving himself?"
"Yeah. He's great to work with. He's taken it over for the most part since Liv has been off but I don't really mind."
"He's used to being in charge anyway. I'm going to tell them that I'm here."
"I'll show you where they are."
Amanda took Erin to where Olivia was. Amanda went back to the waiting room, while Erin went in.
"Hey."
"Erin."
She went over and hugged them both.
"We're all here."
"Thanks for coming."
"You knew I wouldn't miss this for anything."
Olivia had another contraction, so Hank got her through it. The doctor came in and checked Olivia's progress.
"It looks like you're ready to have this baby."
Erin hugged them and left, while the doctor took Olivia to the Delivery Room.
"They're taking her to the Delivery Room right now."
"Good."
Erin sat down and they waited. A little while later, Natalie Margaret Voight came into the world. The nurse wrapped her up and put her in Olivia's arms.
"Hank, she's beautiful."
"She sure is."
Olivia kissed her cheek and then Hank did too before they kissed each other.
"I love you."
"I love you too."
"We're going to take her to get weighed and measured and then we will bring her right back."
"Ok."
They took Natalie to the Nursery to get weighed and measured and then they took her back to Olivia, who was moved back to her room. The nurse placed her in Hank's arms.
"She is 8 lbs 5 oz and 19½ inches."
"You are beautiful like your mama. You know that? How about I take you to meet your new family?"
"Sounds like a plan."
Hank kissed Olivia and she kissed Natalie's cheek before Hank took her to meet everyone.
"This is Natalie Margaret."
"Oh, Hank, she's beautiful."
"Thanks."
"Can I hold her?"
"Sure."
Hank handed Natalie to Erin.
"Hello there, sweetheart."
"Is that my new sister?"
"Yeah, it is."
Hank had his phone out to take a picture of his girls. Noah went over and kissed Natalie on the head and Hank took a picture of that to show Olivia.
"Daddy, can I see Mommy?"
"I think she'd like that."
"I need a pic of her to send to Olive."
"Ok."
Hank took a picture of Natalie with Erin's phone before he took her back and took her and Noah to Olivia's room.
"Someone wanted to see his mommy."
"Hi Sweetheart."
"Hi Mommy."
Hank handed Natalie to Olivia and then he picked up Noah, so he could give Olivia a kiss.
"I have to show you this."
Hank pulled up the picture of Noah kissing Natalie's head.
"Oh, that is too sweet!"
Hank kissed Olivia again.
"Have I told you how much I love you?"
"I don't think you have recently."
"I love you and I am so glad we were together for this."
"Yeah. It was wrong of me to keep the pregnancy from you. I should have told you the minute I found out."
"It's ok."
"Hank, it's not ok. I tried keeping you from your daughter. If Halstead and Dawson hadn't shown up for that case and told you, who knows what would have happened."
"I don't even want to think about that. We're a family now and nothing is ever going to change that."
"And I'm glad for that. I don't think I could have gone through today by myself."
"I couldn't be prouder of you. Even while you were giving birth to our child, you were your usual badass self, the same one I fell in love with."
"Is that the only reason you fell in love with me?"
"No, of course not. I've been in love with you since the moment I first laid eyes on you."
"It wasn't that soon for me. Thank you for deciding to move here."
"You're welcome. You should know by now that I would do anything for you."
"I do know that."
"I just want to spend the rest of my life making you happy."
"This is the happiest I have ever been. I hope I can make you happy too."
"You taught me how to love again and you gave me another child. Actually, two more children. After I lost Justin, I didn't think I'd get a second chance to be a good father. I wasn't the best father to him but I want to be the best father I can possibly be to these two."
Hank put one arm around Olivia and the baby and held Noah in the other. He and Olivia started kissing and neither of them realized that everyone was standing out in the hallway watching them. It had taken both of them a while to realize their true feelings for each other. As the two squads stood in the hallway, they saw their Bosses with their latest creation in Olivia's arms. They all knew the two of them made a great team and they were happy to be there to be a part of it all.
As always, reviews and suggestions are appreciated.
