Olivia got out of bed the next morning, she had hardly slept. She opened the fridge and dropped some left over chinese on her plate and warmed it up. She knew she had too eat healthy, but the rain pouring outside and her lack of sleep kept her from grabbing that apple. She finished her plate, placed it in the sink and went to wake Noah up. " Noah, baby. Time to wake up. Babysitter will be here soon"  whispered Olivia, as she carefully lifted him out of his bed. She dressed Noah, and put him in his chair. She handed him the food and sat down opposite of him, she scrolled through her Facebook page, and waited for the nanny to arrive. 

Olivia arrived at work, went to her office and sat down. Finn immediately entered her office, '' Do you have a moment?'' he asked, Olivia nodded and motioned for Finn to sit down in the chair opposite of her. '' I'm sorry about yesterday, i was out of line'' sighed Finn, '' It's okay, you weren't. I was just a bit shocked to just see him'' replied Olivia.  '' You okay?'' he asked after a few minutes of silence, '' Yes, sure. Just tired, let's get back to work'' smiled Olivia as she pointed towards her office door. Finn nodded and left her office quietly, leaving Olivia to her thoughts. She just couldn't get her mind of the conversation she had with Elliot yesterday.   She worked herself through piles of paperwork that day, and was glad to go home at 7.

Olivia stopped her car, and immediately saw him sitting there on her porch. Olivia sighed, she did not want to face him right now. She got out of the car and walked past him, ''Are you really going to ignore me?'' he said, as he stood up. '' Clearly'' nodded Olivia as she searched her bag for her keys. '' I'm not just going to go away because you ask me too'' stated Elliot, as he tilted his head slightly. Olivia, whom still couldn't find her house keys, rang the doorbell. Even though she knew it would wake Noah up. '' What can i do? to make it up to you?'' he asked, ''leave'' replied Olivia, before closing the front door and leaving Elliot, outside in the pouring rain. 

She quickly handed the babysitter the money, and walked over to Noah, whom was crying in his bed.  '' Ssh'' smiled Olivia, as she stroke Noah's head. '' Go to sleep, mommy will keep you safe''  she whispered. Olivia noticed that his eyes were slowly closing again, so she stood up and walked back to her kitchen.  She opened a cupboard and grabbed the microwave popcorn, she put it in the microwave and grabbed herself a glass of wine. She knew she should have a real dinner, but she wasn't in the mood for any kind of take out, and she was also not in the mood to go to the store to buy some food.  The beeping noise of the microwave shook her out of her thoughts, she emptied the bag in her bowl, and sat back down on the couch. Olivia grabbed her phone, and searched through her contact list, she finally decided to call Alex. '' Liv, what's up?'' asked Alex, from the other line. Olivia stayed silent for a few seconds before answering '' Hi'' she sighed. '' What's wrong?'' asked Alex, '' Elliot's returned'' she said. '' Wait what? Elliot as in Elliot Stabler, as in your eternal crush, as in your colleague? '' gasped Alex. '' Yes, do we know another Elliot?'' asked Olivia. '' Right, sorry. What happened?'' asked Alex. '' He confessed his love to me'' sighed Olivia. '' Oh my god Liv.. '' whispered Alex, '' What did you say?'' she added. '' I said he had to go'' replied Olivia. '' Then he said a lot more, but i kinda just didn't want to listen, and now i am here. Drinking wine, and eating popcorn'' stated Olivia. '' Want me to come over?'' asked Alex after a quiet pause.  '' No'' whispered Olivia.

Olivia woke up, that next morning, way too late. She saw on her alarm that it was 10 am, even though she should've been at work around 7.30 am.  She quickly put on a blouse, and some pants. Hurriedly put her mascara on, and rushed over to the kitchen. She grabbed a water bottle, and her bag. She then woke Noah up, dressed him and put him in the car. When she started the engine, she saw it was 10.30 am. She drove as quick as she was allowed. But then it happened, a car hit the side of hers. And all went black.

***

She woke up, in a hospital bed. The beeping of a heart machine, filling up the entire room. '' You're awake!'' exclaimed Alex relieved. '' What happened?'' asked Olivia, as she placed her hand on her head. '' You got in a crash'' sighed Alex, as she sat down in the chair next to Olivia's bed.  '' Oh god. Noah!'' exclaimed Olivia, She was trying to get up. But Alex held her down. '' You have a concussion, and a lot of serious bruising. You need to rest.'' sighed Alex, as she softly placed her hand on Olivia's shoulder. '' Noah'' whispered Olivia again, as she felt tears burning in her eyes. '' I will check on him right now'' said Alex, as she stood up. Olivia nodded, as she slowly sat up. 

Olivia waited for Alex to return, tears dripping down her pale, and bruised cheeks. And there Alex was, standing in the doorway. She looked as pale, as her white blouse. '' Oh Olivia... I'm so sorry. Noah's....-''
