A/N: This takes place just before the upcoming season. I know SVU has a new Noah, who is a little older but I'm not sure if that means they are aging the character or not. Anyway, he's still about 4 here. Even though we are unsure about who survives the Fire on Chicago Fire, everyone will be in this chapter or the next chapter. I don't own any of the characters.

Kiss Me

It had been a while since Olivia had been to Chicago. The last time she had been there was when Yates ended up back there after escaping from prison. She decided to take a week's vacation and take Noah somewhere before he went back to Preschool. She needed a break and was starting to become too stressed out. She had chosen Chicago because she had never really seen much of it. She figured while they were there, she'd go visit her colleagues at the 21st District. She knew Erin was in New York with the FBI because Erin had contacted her and they had met for dinner and drinks several times already. She was glad to have Erin that close because they have always gotten along. She wondered how different things were now that Erin left. Erin had called her when Hank had lost his son but stupidly, she never called him. She figured he wouldn't want to talk to her but she still wanted to see everyone. She and Noah had spent some time at the hotel pool that morning and wanted to spend some time playing tourist that afternoon. She wanted to get to know Chicago better. She knew how to find the District just like she knew how to find her own Precinct. She parked her car, got Noah out and they went inside. Trudy was in her usual spot.

"Sergeant Platt, it's always nice to see you."

"You too, Lieutenant. Who's this?"

"This is my son, Noah. Noah, this is Sergeant Platt."

"Hi."

"Hi Noah. I bet you like Fire trucks."

"Yes. I love them. They make a lot of noise."

Trudy laughed and Olivia rolled her eyes.

"How's Mouch?"

He's doing fine. He had a heart attack and retired but he still spends a lot of time at 51."

"Mommy."

"What?"

"What's a Mouch?"

"Mouch is Trudy's husband."

"Oh. Do you have a husband?"

"No and thank you for the reminder."

"I have to go potty."

"Can you go by yourself?"

"Yeah."

"It's right over there."

"Thank you."

Noah went to the washroom.

"I thought you were in a relationship."

"I was. I wanted to concentrate on my son. Ed wanted to retire and wanted me to think about it too. I asked him what he was planning to do and he said he just wanted to do nothing. Ok but it we're together, my son is also a factor. If he had said that he wanted to spend more time with Noah, I would have been happy with that but Noah didn't even come up in his tentative retirement plans. I decided against retiring because I love what I do even though it is really starting to get to me lately."

"Are you two still friends at least?"

"He said we would be but I haven't heard much from him. We broke up this past winter after being together about a year. I've been hurt so many times and I always end up getting my heart broken. My former partner up and retired without saying goodbye and he was my best friend. I've been in relationships where we've never been on the same page. My ex, Brian and I wanted different things and parted ways. I wanted marriage and a family but he didn't. My other ex, David, chose advancing in his job over our relationship. I really don't even know why I got involved with Ed in the first place. My heart was never completely in it and I never saw him as my happily ever after anyway. I've kind of had feelings for someone else for a while now but somehow I doubt that would ever work."

"Does he know?"

"Are you kidding?"

"Then how is this guy going to know how you feel? Randy and I started seeing each other after Chief Boden got married. I had never been great with relationships either and neither was he. Sure, he gave me a half-assed marriage proposal and then I ended up asking him but we're happy. Tell the guy how you feel about him."

"If it were only that easy."

"Please tell me you're talking about Hank."

Olivia gave Trudy a look.

"Olivia, you need to tell that man you have feelings for him."

"That'll go over real big. I'm sure the feelings aren't reciprocated."

"I know that man probably better than he knows himself somedays. He's lonely especially since Erin went to New York. His daughter-in-law and grandson have been living in Arizona for like a year now with Justin gone. He was pissed when he found out you were with that Ed guy. I've been having this conversation with him for at least 2 years and told him to get his act together because he's not getting any younger."

Then Olinsky came downstairs.

"Hey, Lieutenant."

"Hey."

"Olinsky knows what I'm talking about."

"About what?"

"About your Boss needing to get laid."

"That's a good way of putting it. Camille has been gone 7 years. He needs something. That's for sure but I would settle for him actually going on a date with a woman."

"Yeah but you know who he has feelings for though, right?"

"I'd be an idiot not to know that. The entire unit knows it."

"Apparently I'm always the last to know anything especially when it's about me. Can you go check on my son? He's in the washroom."

"Yeah sure. Noah, right?"

"Yeah. Thanks."

Al went into the washroom and checked on Noah. He was having trouble with the sink, so Al told him who he was and he knew his mom and offered to help him. Then he took him back out to Olivia.

"You ok, Sweetie?"

I had trouble reaching the sink. Mommy, he said he knows you."

"That's right. I've worked with him when I came here before. Now I have to go."

Olivia went to the washroom and they heard the door bang into the building, so they knew who was there.

"Hank's here."

Hank came up the steps.

"I need a damn vacation!"

"Nice to see you too, Hank."

"I'm telling you, Man, you need a woman in your life."

Noah looked up at Hank.

"You said a bad word."

"I did, huh?"

"Yep. I'm Noah Benson."

"Hank Voight. Wait, did he say Benson?"

"He did."

"She's here?"

"Oh, yeah!"

Olivia came back.

"Mommy, he said a bad word. His name is Hank."

"Yes, I know, Sweetie. I've worked with him. Sergeant."

"Lieutenant. What brings you to Chicago? You, your boyfriend and the kid here for a family vacation? I don't see a ring on your finger, so apparently he hasn't proposed yet. I don't remember hearing from you when I lost my son."

"You know what? Maybe I'll come back later when Sergeant Grumpy Pants isn't here and see everyone. Maybe I'll take Noah over to the fire station."

Trudy gave Hank a look and he gave her one back

"Fine. Listen, Benson, I apologize for being, excuse my language, an ass."

"Yeah, you are an ass."

"Come on up."

"Thank you."

Hank, Olivia, Noah and Al went upstairs, Hank put his code in and they continued the rest of the way up. Hank went to his office and Al followed to try to talk some sense into him.

"Hey, Lieutenant."

"Hey."

"This must be Noah."

"Yep. Noah, this is the rest of the group Mommy works with when she's in Chicago."

"Hi."

"Hey, Noah, I'm Antonio."

"I'm Kim."

"Adam."

"Kevin."

"I'm Jay."

"Hi. I'm Hailey Upton. It's nice to meet you both. I've heard a lot about you from the whole unit."

"It's nice to meet you, Hailey. I'm Olivia. You're Erin's replacement, right?"

"Yeah, kind of. We worked together before she left and then I was brought in to replace her."

"She's mentioned you. Antonio, your job didn't work out with the State's Attorney, I take it?"

"No. He's moving to New York from what I understand. His dad used to be an ADA there."

"I know who his dad is and I yeah, I did hear that he was coming to New York. I guess he's supposed to be Barba's new Boss, so Barba's complaining left and right about that. He's not big on change."

"Peter is tough sometimes. He doesn't take crap from anyone."

"Good to know. I'll be sure to warn Rafael of that."

"Mommy, can I color?"

"Sure."

"I'll take him. Come on, Noah."

"Thanks, Kim."

"No problem."

"Here's his bag."

"Ok, thanks."

Kim took Noah to the lounge, got him settled and gave him his crayons and coloring book.

"How's your squad, Lieutenant?"

"Everyone is doing great. Fin is now a Sergeant, so I have someone I trust to take over when I'm not there. Rollins and Carisi both capable of doing things on their own. Amanda and I have had our differences over the years but we do have more in common than we realize. It's hard being a single parent and she understands that. We had this case a few months back where this guy had this website that he put all this stuff on it whether it was true or not. He had photos of me with Noah and Amanda with Jesse with a headline asking where the fathers are. I chose to raise Noah as a single parent. The Case Worker and Judge knew that when I first became his foster mother. The Judge asked if I'd be interested and really, how could I say no? I would love to settle down and find someone that wants to be with us both. Jesse's father isn't around because he's outside the country doing undercover work. She doesn't really want to be in a relationship with him but he supports his daughter. That case forced us to send our kids with Lucy, Noah's nanny, to her parents' in New Jersey for a few days."

"So then that relationship you were in the last time you were here, didn't work out?"

"No. We ended it earlier this year."

"Sorry to hear that."

"I'm not. We were just on different pages. He wanted to retire but I still wanted to work and focus on my son. He never even mentioned Noah in his plans anyway. A part of me wonders why I even got involved with him in the first place. When Dodds was shot and then died, he was really supportive but there were times when I just felt like the relationship was going nowhere. My heart wasn't completely in it and I've had feelings for someone else for a while now."

"Does the other guy know how you feel?"

"No. I don't know if it would work between us."

"Voight?"

"Yeah. Trudy said all of you knew something. The only person I have really told my feelings to is Erin."

"Erin does know him well. How's she doin'?"

"She's doing good. So far, she likes her job. We meet for dinner and drinks quite often and sometimes Amanda joins us. She sends her regards to everyone especially you, Jay. Excuse me."

Olivia went to Hank's office and then once she went in, Olinsky came out and shut the door.

""There is something you need to know."

"I'm listening."

"No you're not. Come sit over here, so I can have your undivided attention."

"I'd rather sit here."

"We can always go talk in the Cage."

"I'll pass on that."

"Do you hate me for some reason? You've done nothing but act like an ass since the moment you knew I was here."

"Do you really want to know why I'm pissed at you?"

"Yeah, I do. Please enlighten me."

"The last time you were here, I was about to tell you that I had feelings for you but then I found out you were with that guy. I can't compete with that. I also never heard from you after Justin's death. It's hard enough that we're in two different cities."

"How long have you known?"

"Known what?"

"That you had feelings for me?"

"My feelings for you started after we had gone out for beers after that case involving Teddy. I was hoping for something to happen between us during the Yates case. You're way out of my league, Benson. You're a Lieutenant and I'm a Sergeant."

"I'm not out of your league. Rank means nothing to me. I broke up with Ed earlier this year because he and I weren't on the same page and I wanted to focus on Noah. He wanted to retire and wanted me to consider it too. I asked him what he planned to do and he said he wanted to do nothing. I have feelings for you too and they started the same time yours did. I didn't know how to deal with it because of the distance between us. I feel really bad that I didn't call you after Justin died but I was going through the loss of Sergeant Dodds and I was blaming myself for it. If I had done something differently, maybe he would still be here."

"That's how I felt with what happened to Justin. There's nothing worse than being told your only child is brain dead and should be taken off life support."

"That was basically what happened with Mike. He was shot in the abdomen and seemed to be doing ok but then had a stroke. They kept him alive for his organs. I was in the room with Chief Dodds and Mike's fiancée, Alice when he passed away. Rollins, Carisi, Fin and Ed were all waiting for me as I did the long walk down that hallway. All I had to do was look at them and they knew. For the longest time, Chief Dodds blamed me for what happened. Someone we were investigating, asked why Dodds' death was never investigated and Chief Dodds had been there with me. He nearly lost it and told me to nail this guy. He told me he didn't blame me anymore. The thing is, I still blame myself. At the time, I would have given anything to switch places with Mike. My Therapist told me that it wasn't my time and what would my son do without me?"

"I understand how you feel. I wished I could have switched places with Justin. He misses seeing his son grow up. Not too many people would miss me."

"That's not true, Hank. What about your squad? What about Erin? What about your daughter-in-law and grandson? What about me?"

"You'd miss me?"

"Yeah, I would. Hank."

"Yeah?"

"You want to kiss me, don't you?"

"Maybe."

"Just maybe? I want to kiss you."

"It's been a while since I have done this. It's been a while since I have done a lot of stuff."

"Sergeant, shut up and kiss me already."

Hank moved closer to Olivia and put his arms around her as she put her hands on his face. They leaned into each other and started kissing.
