It's Always Been Him

Home

(Liv's POV) *3 weeks have passed*
It's 10 am Friday morning. Elliott is finally being released from the hospital today. His vitals have been extremely well, his infection has been cleared up completely, he's off pain meds, they haven't had him on IV fluids for the past week, and he's been doing great! As the nurse walks in she begins to give us a brief explanation of what he can and cannot do. "Okay so for the last 3 weeks you've been doing great! You've been off of everything for the past week so we are releasing you to do anything but work, no alcohol, and not too much physical activity such as long runs. Anything else you are free to do. Here's the papers. Get em signed and give them to the front desk on your way out. Tracy ,our secretary,will ask you a few questions before you leave but other than that you'll have nothing else to do. Oh and in 2 months you'll need to go to your nearest clinic and get a check up, but if you're still doing fine after 2 months then your free to do it all! You two have a wonderful rest of your day! I hope we don't see you here again!" The nurse explains to us as she leaves us to sign the papers and Elliott to get dressed. "Wow I can't believe it was as easy as that! Can you baby?" I ask Elliott who is in the bathroom currently getting dressed. "No.. It's crazy but I, for one, am not complaining at all!" He says as he walks out of the bathroom pulling his shirt over his head. I can't believe just how bad I want him right now. Like every muscle in my body is urging me to pounce. My body needs him right now and he is free to do it all. Boy does he have a lot in store for him for his first night back home!

(El's POV) *1 pm*
After we finally got out of that damn hospital it was about 11:30 so we decided to stop and eat. Once we finished we were headed home! Boy I couldn't wait to finally be home in my own bed with the love of my life laying next to me and good food rather than disgusting hospital food. As we pull into the driveway to my house I see a few cars that I recognize. I look over to Olivia who is smiling ear to ear. "What did you do Olivia Margret Benson?!"  I ask teasingly angry with a smile on my face as well. "I might have thrown you a welcome back party!" She says as she looks away, trying not to laugh. "Oohh you little..." I say as I jump over the middle console and start tickling her. After about 5 minutes of me tickling her and her constant laughter, I finally stop and kiss her on the cheek. As I get out of the car and then help her out, I grab my bags from the backseat, grab her hand, and begin to walk up the sidewalk leading to my doorway. "I love you!" I tell Olivia as we are walking. "I love you too El! So so so much!" She relays back to me as she kisses me right before we walk into my house.

(Nobody's POV)    *PARTY TIME*
Surprise!!!! Everyone yells as Elliot and Olivia make their way into the house. "It's about time you get out of that damn hospital!" Fin says causing everyone to burst into laughter. "It feels great to be able to be out of that uncomfortable hospital bed and finally back home!" Elliott relays back to Fin. "Who wants cake?!" Melinda asks walking out of the kitchen with 4 plates of cake and ice cream. "Me!!" Kathleen, Maureen, Dickie, and Lizzie say in unison. "Thanks aunt Mel!" They all say as she gives them each a plate. "Fin? Munch? Elliott? Olivia? Don? You guys want any? "Hell yeah!" Fin and Munch say. "El? Don? You guys want any cake or ice cream? I don't want any Mel.. But maybe the boys will I dont know." Olivia says. "I'll just take some ice cream." Elliott says, then continuing to talk to Kathy about the kids staying with him tonight. "No I'm fine. Don say as he walks over to Olivia and gives her a big hug. "You coming back to work next week?" He asks as he comes to a stop beside her. "Yeah probably. Unless Elliott needs me for some reason, then I'll be in!" Olivia says smiling. "It'll be great to have you back! Nick and Amanda are great but you and Elliott are irreplaceable. It'll be nice to finally have the strong point back!" Don says watching Fin and Munch laughing and joking around. "Where are Nick and Amanda anyways?" She asks scanning the crowd. "They said they would be a little late but they would be here.. I didn't even bother to ask. Those two are so full of each other I'd be scared of the response I might get!" Don say cracking up which causes Olivia to burst into laughter. And as if on cue Nick and Amanda walk in, Amanda having sex hair and the back of Nick's neck was bright red, which only caused Don and Olivia to laugh header! Almost on the verge of tears, Olivia says "Oh my gosh!! This is to damn funny!" Amanda must have spotted Olivia and Don in the crowd cause she made her way over to them. Seeing that the were laughing she nervously asked, "What are you guys laughing about?" Olivia and Don who are still laughing uncontrollably hard, both respond with, "Nothing!!" Amanda, whose face has turned 50 shades of red, hesitantly laughs and slowly walks away.
----------------------------------------------
(El's POV) *6 pm*
Everyone had finally begun to start clearing out about a half an hour ago. Nick and Amanda were the first ones to leave even though they didn't stay long. Then Kathy left and not to long after her Munch and Don left. The only people still at the house were my kids, me, Olivia, Fin, and Melinda. We'd started to clean up the mess and everyone still there was pitching in besides Dickie and Lizzie. Maureen, Kathleen, Melinda, and Olivia were all in the kitchen cleaning up in there while Fin and I were cleaning up the living room. "How's you and Liv doin?" Fin randomly asks. "We're doing great! It's been a little rough for her these past 3 and a half weeks but she's stuck around. We're telling the kids about it tonight once everything is settled down." I respond while picking up solo cups and plates off of the coffee table. "Man, your kids don't know?! They must be blind man. You guys are so obvious about it. I'm surprised! Have any of them even said anything about it to you two?" Fin says stopping his actions. "It's surprised me as well, but no they haven't suspected anything between us. Which is a little more surprising with Kathleen and Maureen since they are older and can usually sense those things. Cause it's not like we were holding back on anything or trying to hide it either." I say repeating his action.
----------------------------------------------
(Liv's POV) *In the kitchen*
"Okay girls! I think that we're finished. Kathleen. Maureen. You girls are released!" I say teasingly. "Thanks Liv! We'll probably go grab a shower if there's not else you need help with." Maureen says look over at Kathleen who nods in approval. "Nope. You girls are all done. I don't think there's anything left to do." I reply smiling at them. "Okay then we'll get out of your hair and head upstairs to get our showers!" Maureen said before they took off out of the kitchen and up the stairs, racing each other to the bathroom to see who'll get the shower first. "How are they taking you and Elliott's relationship?" Melinda asks me as she sits down at the kitchen island. "Well." I pause, "we haven't quite told them yet. It's been hectic since it started so not many people know." I finish. "Wow! That's crazy. I can't believe that they haven't even questioned it. Especially the older girls. You'd think that they'd sense something going on. Don't ya think?" Mel asks. "You'd think so..but no. They haven't questioned anything at all. At least if they have...then they haven't said anything to us...but we plan on telling them tonight once everyone's settled down." I reply sitting down across from her. "That'll be good! They all seem to like you so I don't think that you have anything to worry about Liv! You're wonderful to them and everyone can see it. You treat them as if they're your own!" Mel says with a smile on her face. "They practically are mine. I love them with all my heart but I gotta tell ya...I'm ready to have my own baby and I would love it if Elliott was the dad." I say looking into the kitchen were Fin and Elliott are talking and sitting on the couch. "You'll be a great mother Liv! Truly! Well...Fin and I are gonna get out of your guy's hair. We'll see ya next week!" Melinda says standing up and kissing my cheek before she heads into the living room to grab Fin. They say their goodbyes and are the last to head out. Now it's time to tell the kids about El and I's relationship and I'm a bit nervous. I stand up and walk into the living room where Elliott's sitting and watching me walk to where he's at. "See something you see Stabler?" I ask him while running my hands down my body. Making sure to run over every curve. "Absolutely baby! Your gorgeous. You just wait and I show you what I like!" He says very low and seductive. I lean down to eye level with him and kiss him hard. "As long as there's more of that then I'm in!" I say as I plump down next to him.
----------------------------------------------
(El's POV)
"Kids!!!" I yell from the bottom of the staircase, "come downstairs! We have something to talk about!" Not long after I sit back down in my spot beside Olivia, all of the kids come sprinting down the stairs and into the living room. "What is it dad?" Maureen asks, speaking for all of them. "Olivia and I have something to tell you." I say scanning their faces before I continue. "Okay?" They all say in unison. "So Liv and I have been dating for a few weeks now...How do you guys feel about that?" I say just a tad bit worried about what's coming. "That's great dad! We love Liv as if she's our mom anyway! She's been there for all of us for God knows how long! This is amazing!" Lizzie says. "Yeah dad! Lizzie's right! It's about time!" Kathleen and Maureen say. "Thank you girls! That means a lot to me!" Olivia says with tears at the brim of her eyes. We all turn to Dickie who has sat there with the same expression in his face for the past 3 minutes. "What about you son? Are you okay with it?" I ask him. "Am I okay with it? Hmm let's see....NO! It's not okay! She was probably the reason you and mom got divorced anyways!! I don't think that she's welcome here! She couldn't keep her legs closed 3 and a half years ago and she can't keep em closed now! You've probably done knocked her up and that's probably why your even doing this!" Dickie yells then goes up to his room. All of us sit there with our jaws dropped. Olivia, who was sitting beside, had already gotten up and was headed for the door. "Where are you going? Liv, where are you going?" I ask her as she grabs her purse. She turns to me and the tears are streaming down her face uncontrollably. "You heard him. I'm not welcome here! I don't want to make him uncomfortable with me here! He hates me Elliott! I can't live with that! He thinks that I ruined you and Kathy's marriage! I'm leaving!" She says sobbing at this point. I pull her into my arms and don't let go. I kiss her forehead and say "Liv you know that you're welcome here. You know that you're not what caused Kathy and I to get divorced. He does hate you either. It's just new and shocking. Please stay? Please Olivia. I want you here. The girls want you here." I say with her still in my arms. "Fine I'll stay... But I'm going to your room." She says as she breaks out of my arms. "Make sure she doesn't leave." I say to the girls who are still sitting in the living room in shock. They all just nod. As I storm up the stairs I can feel my anger growing more and more intense. As I get to the first door on the left with a heavy metal poster on the door I bang so hard on it that my fist turns red. Dickie hesitantly opens the door. I kick it the rest of the way open and grab him by his arm causing him to squeal in pain. "LISTEN HERE DAMN IT! OLIVIA IS NOT THE CAUSE OF YOUR MOM AND I'S DIVORCE AND YOU KNOW THAT! SHE IS WELCOME HERE WHENEVER THE FUCK SHE WANTS TO BE HERE TOO!!! GOT IT?! YOU WILL NEVER EVER EVER TREAT HER THAT WAY AGAIN!! SHE HAS DONE NOTHING BUT GOOD FOR YOU EVER SINCE YOU WERE BORN YOU LITTLE FUCKER!!! YOU WILL SHOW HER RESPECT!!! DO YOU UNDERSTAND ME?!?! DO YOU?!?!" I scream at the top of my lungs probably spitting in his face, I was that close. I was not happy with him at all and I made it very obvious. "Yes. I'm so sorry dad. I didn't mean to hurt her feelings or yours. I'm so sorry." He says, quivering in my grasp. "You better go apologize to her and let her know you truly mean it! You're grounded from everything you own for the next year that your here. Do you understand me?!" I say through gritted teeth. "Yes." He says as he lowers his head. "She's downstairs in my room. Probably sobbing still! Go apologize right now!" I say pointing to the door and pushing him towards it with my other hand.
----------------------------------------------
(Liv's POV) *Elliott's bedroom*
I could hear Elliott screaming at Dickie and all that I could do was cry. What Dickie said really did hurt. And the fact that he said it all with sincerity made that much worse. The girls seemed fine with me and then he blew up. I didn't know what to even think. I can't believe he thought of me that way. *bedroom door creaks open* "Liv? Are you in here?" Oh shit! It's Dickie! I don't know what to do! "Um yeah. I'm getting ready to head out. Uh...I um...I was just looking to see if I had everything.." I stutter out, frantically walking around the room. "Liv.. I'm so sorry about what I said. I didn't mean any of it. It's just new. Dad hasn't dated anyone since him and mom divorced and it's different to think that he'll be dating now. It's hard to grasp. But I know that it's not your fault that they got divorced. And I'm so so sorry that I accused you of it. It was not my place to just assume things. It was completely awful and it won't happen again. You've been nothing but good to me my whole life and I did you wrong. I'm so sorry Liv! Please stay?! I don't want you to leave. Please don't go?" He says causing me to stop dead in my tracks and look over to him only to see the tears streaming down his face. I don't know what to do or what to say. I don't want to say the wrong thing. So I just stand there and stare at him. "It's okay Dickie. I understand you're hurting. But it's okay." I say looking away from him. "So you'll stay?" He pleads. "Yeah... I'll stay." I walk over to him and hug him then instantly pull away not wanting to go to far. I walk over to the side of the bed and sit down. Dickie leaves and Elliott walks in. "Hey baby." He says as he sits down next to me. I get up walk over to his door, lock it, walk back over to him and straddle his lap. "I love you so so much Elliott! Let's make a baby. I want a baby.. It's that okay? Can we make a baby?" I say as I begin to kiss his neck. "I love you too Olivia! But are you sure about this after the events of tonight.. Your sure you want this?" He says trying to hold his restraints until he gets the okay. "I'm positive!" I say in between kisses. And with that his restraints are gone! Completely out the door! He beings nipping and kissing at my neck. Then he attacks me lips hard and passionately. Licking my bottom lip begging for access which I gladly grant. He then pulls my shirt over my head. "Are you 100% sure Olivia?" He asks before continuing. God I love the considerate side of him but right now he just needs to get over it! "Please baby? I want this!" I say kissing his lips again. Our night together was only just beginning!

*Long chapter guys!! I've got something big in store for you guys with this one!! It's gonna be kinda hectic!! Let me know what you think!
