Aftermath (An SVU Fanfiction) *EDITING*

Feelings

Olivia sat on the toilet, staring at the test and wasn't exactly sure how she felt, but she did know that she didn't want another kid. She knew that she couldn't handle going through another pregnancy, having preterm labor, she can do that again.

Elliot just got home. Eli is spending the night at a friend's house and Dylan was invited to a birthday party, so it'll just be the two of them for a few hours.

Olivia heard the door shut and went downstairs with the test in hand. "El.." she practically whispers.

"Hey. What's wrong?"

"I um..I think I might be.." She took a deep breath. Elliot and her have been fighting nonstop since he came back home and she didn't want him to be even more upset with her over this..but she has to tell him. "El, i'm pregnant."

Elliot is shocked, but truly excited! He's always wanted to have a child with her. "Pregnant? You're sure?" She shows him the test. "Oh my god, Liv!"

"I know, I didn't plan on it either, but-"

"This is great!"

"I-it is?"

"Yes! No matter how mad you are at me."

Olivia took a second to fill her lungs. She doesn't want to be mad at him, but she is. He left her after promising her that he never would. "I don't want to fight with you, Elliot."

"Then don't."

"I'm still really mad at you, though."

Elliot pulls her into a hug and rubs her back. He takes in her scent, her beauty, all of it. "I still love you, though." Elliot kisses her and she smiles. "Will you put your ring back on now?"

"Should I? I mean, if I do, that might require a little more work on your part."

"Such as?"

"You gotta be on top."

"Be on-" he stops himself, now knowing what she meant. "I can deal with that."

*******

"Mommy!" Dylan screeches as she runs to Olivia. "Bailey got bunches of cake and it was chocolate!"

"Chocolate?" Olivia picks her up. "That sounds yummy! Did you tell her 'thank you' for inviting you?"

"Mhm!" "Okay, well daddy went to get bubby from his friend's house and they'll meet us back at home." Olivia put her in her car seat and strapped her in. She got in and started driving. "When we get home, daddy and I have to talk to you and your brother about something, okay?"

"I didn't do it! Eli did it!"

"You aren't in trouble for anything, love, we just have exciting news!"

"Oh. Bubba still did it though."

"What did he do?"

"He gave a big kid 'mission to come to our house one day and play."

"Oh did he? When did this happen?"

"I dunno."

"Well, when we get home, your brother will be in trouble. He knows that nobody is allowed in the hse when we aren't home. Especially when he watches you."

"Well, it um, uh, it was the uh, the day that you went to work and Wucy came to our house, but then bubby's fwiend came before that."

"Okay, tattle-tale. We're home," Olivia sighs. She's so disappointed in Eli. They were by themselves for less than ten minutes before Lucy showed up that day. They went inside to see Eli sitting on the couch and Elliot was just about to go up the stairs.
