A/N: This is the second part to the last chapter titled 'Stubborn'. I don't own any of the characters.
Family Affair
Hank stayed in the bathroom with Olivia while she took a shower and they continued discussing the situation. He tried to get her to see his side of it and how important it was for him to at least have Erin, Olive and the boys there when they got married. Olivia, however, was still being stubborn about it. She still only wanted it to be the two of them and she wouldn't really give him a reason why. He really did want her to be happy but this didn't feel right to him. They went out for breakfast and then they went to apply for a marriage license. They stopped at the District and Hank went into his office and texted Erin and Olive. He knew Olivia would be pissed but he at least wanted them to know what the plan was. Erin contacted Olive and they decided to fly to Chicago to be there for them. Erin had no choice but to tell the rest of Olivia's squad since Amanda had Noah. They also let Barba know and once Amanda got home, she told Noah and Lucy. Fin got a hold of Cragen and Munch, who were more than happy to drop everything to be there for Olivia when she got married. Erin also called Kim, so soon everyone in Intelligence and Platt knew what was going on. She had also gone to Olivia's apartment and packed a suitcase for Olivia to take on the honeymoon.
Olivia and Hank decided to get married the following afternoon. Amanda called in for Noah and they all headed to the airport. Everyone knew what time they were heading to City Hall and hoped they'd make it in time. They all wore what they planned to wear to the wedding on the flight, so all they had to do was get their cars and head straight to City Hall. When the group from New York arrived in Chicago, Olive and Daniel were there and waiting for them.
"Hey."
"Hello. I can't believe all this craziness."
"I know. I wonder why Liv didn't want any of us there. We're all family."
They went to get their luggage and then they went to get the cars before they headed to City Hall. When they arrived, the group from Intelligence was waiting for them. They went in and found what Room Hank and Olivia were getting married in. They found the Room, opened the door and went inside. As soon as Olivia saw everyone she smirked and rolled her eyes but had tears in her eyes at the same time.
"Are these your witnesses?"
"Yes but they are also our family."
Noah ran up to them and hugged them both. Daniel followed and then they were joined by Erin and Olive. Everyone else stood behind them. They had the ceremony and then they were pronounced husband and wife before they kissed.
"It's about damn time, Liv! Unlike the other jackasses you have been involved with, Voight is at least worthy of you."
"I'm glad I have your approval, Fin. Hank, thank you for not listening to me and letting them know."
"You're welcome. I love you so much."
"I love you too."
Everyone did a big group hug and then they went to one of Hank's favorite pizzerias for dinner, which Intelligence had arranged and preordered the pizzas and appetizers.
"This is from us to the two of you."
"Thank you."
"This whole thing reminded me of when my sister and Matt got married."
When they went inside, the group from 51 was all there.
"Congratulations!"
"Thanks, everyone."
"Hank, Liv, this is from Olive, the boys and me."
Erin handed the envelope to Olivia, so she opened it.
"Oh, my!"
"What?"
Olivia had tears in her eyes.
"They paid for our entire honeymoon. How did you arrange it so fast?"
"They had an availability, so I booked it. The location was Noah's idea but there's a catch. You have to go back with the 4 of us another time."
"Deal."
Hank and Olivia hugged Erin and Olive.
"So, where are you two off to?"
"Disney World. I've never been there."
"Neither have I."
"So, who's leaving their city?"
"Actually, I am. We're not going to move here until after Noah is done with school, so that still gives me several months yet. I'm planning to retire. I know I said I wasn't ready a year ago but a lot has happened and I need to concentrate on my family. I already called Trevor Langan and told him to start the papers to have Hank adopt Noah. We will have to deal with having a long distance marriage even though having a long distance relationship was hard enough. I am going to push for Fin to stay with SVU and take over for me."
"Thanks, Liv. Love you too."
"At least you know what you're doing. If they want to bring another Lieutenant in, that's their choice but as far as I'm concerned, you're my first choice."
"I'll do the best I can."
"Thank you. Don and John, it is so good to see you both."
"You too, Liv. Congratulations!"
"Thank you. This is Hank Voight, my husband. That sounds so weird. I have a husband. Hank, this is Don Cragen and John Munch. Don was my Captain and John was the Sergeant before I was."
"It's nice to meet you."
"You too."
Olivia introduced Don and John to everyone.
"Noah sweetie, are you ok with us moving to Chicago?"
"Yeah. I love it here. I mean I'll miss Erin, Uncle Fin, Aunt Amanda, Jesse, Uncle Sonny, Uncle Rafa and Lucy but we can go see them, right?"
"Absolutely and they can come see us too. We're not moving for a few months yet."
"It's not Aunt Erin?"
"No. Hank is and always will be a father to me, so Noah considers me to be his sister. This is really the first I've been back to Chicago since I left but I want to come visit my family."
"What about the rest of us?"
"I'll come visit more often if Hank will let me."
"Why wouldn't I let you? Honestly, I've been a little lonely since you left. Even when Olivia and Noah are here for the weekend, I get lonely after they go back to New York."
"Liv gets lonely when you come back here or even after they come back to New York."
"Oh, I do! I won't deny that."
"She mopes around for days after you've spent the weekend together."
"Guilty! Only a few more months and we won't have to worry about that anymore."
"So, why the rush to get married?"
"I didn't want to wait."
"You're not pregnant are you?"
"No. I wouldn't want to give birth to my first baby at 50. I'm perfectly fine with Noah even though I wouldn't mind eventually adopting more kids."
"That sounds reasonable. You two have been together about a year, right?"
"For the most part."
"What do you mean by for the most part?"
"I've been with Hank on and off since sometime between the two cases we did 7 months apart."
"I came to see you for Valentine's Day 3 years ago."
"Yes, you did and that was probably the most memorable Valentine's Day I had had in a very long time along with last year of course."
"Let's not forget what happened the year before last when you were here to look for Yates and when you were here for Justin's funeral."
"Damn, Liv! Should I assume that Tucker knows nothing about this?"
"That would be correct."
"Now the truth comes out. Whenever any of us would ask you about it, you say it was complicated."
"It was. I probably shouldn't have gone to Paris with Tucker but we went after I had been here, so at least I was with Hank prior to that trip. Ed wanted to come here with me for the funeral but I told him that wasn't necessary. I told him that a good friend of mine lost someone she loved like a brother, so he thought I was coming here for a female friend, which in this case was Erin and wasn't a complete lie. Hank was the real reason I was coming here for Justin's funeral. I wanted to be here for him and I wanted to be in his arms."
"I don't want to know what would have happened if Tucker had ever found out about you and Voight."
"I don't really care. I actually thought about telling him but Hank talked me out of it. I realized that he'd probably go after Hank and I didn't want to risk that. Tucker told me he loved me several times and I never actually told him I loved him back because I didn't. I have a feeling that he was trying to get enough nerve to propose but if he had asked, I would have turned him down. There is no way I would have married him. I should have just ended things with him sooner than we did."
"How did Noah feel about all this?"
"He's liked Hank from the moment they met. It took him a long time to warm up to Tucker and for the most part, he was pretty shy around him. He would never call Tucker "Ed" but he has always called Hank "Hank". Once Hank and I got together for good, he started calling him "Daddy"."
"Tucker doesn't seem like he'd be good with kids."
"I hardly ever left him alone with Noah. Noah kept Mommy's secret, didn't you?"
"Yep. Tucker took us to Paris but other than that, he seemed uncomfortable around me. I'm glad Hank's my daddy now."
"Me too. Lucy, are you staying with him while we're gone?"
"Erin is staying with him but I'll pick him up from school and if she needs me to take him, I'll do that too."
"Thank you for everything, Erin."
"No problem. It's the least I could do."
The pizzas came out and then everyone ate. A few hours later, Hank and Olivia hugged Erin, Olive and the boys and said goodbye to everyone else before they went home and everyone else went home or to the hotel. When they arrived at the house, they locked up and went up to the bedroom to make love for the first time as husband and wife before falling asleep in each other's arms. The next morning, Erin arrived with Olivia's suitcase before they left for the airport for their honeymoon in Disney World.
As always, reviews and suggestions are appreciated.
