"Unless, Sergeant Benson, you rescued the infant. Isn't that right?" The judge asked.
"Yes, your honor." Olivia replied matter of factely.
"And you're the only one who's taken a consistent interest on his behalf. Is there any chance you would like to become a foster mother to this baby?" The judge asked.
"I-I'm sorry. Excuse me, your honor?" Olivia asked half stunned, half confused.
"I have a feeling about this, Sergeant Benson. They call it a judges hunch. If you agree, I will order Noah Porter into your care as custodial parent for one year. At which time you will be given the option to permanently adopt him. Do you agree?" The judge asked with a smile.

The wails coming from Noah echoed through the now baby proofed apartment, bringing Olivia back from the flashback. She walked over to his crib and carefully picked him up and cradled him gently.
"Hey buddy. It's ok. Momma's here." Olivia cooed.
Noah's cries quieted to sniffles.
"Are you hungry?" Olivia asked her son
Noah licked his lips. Even though it's only been a week, Olivia has picked up on some of his 'signals' and she knew that meant he was hungry. She walked through the apartment to the kitchen. She opened a cabinet and pulled out a bottle and grabbed some formula from the fridge. She put the formula in the bottle and put it in the microwave. The microwave beeped, scaring Noah, causing him to start to whimper in Olivia's arms.
"It's ok buddy." Olivia comforted her son.
She grabbed the bottle from the microwave and put a drop on her wrist to make sure it was the right temperature. Satisfied, she sat down on the couch and situated Noah in her arms before placing the bottle in his mouth. He immediately began to chug the milk.
"Slow down there little guy." Olivia said with a chuckle.
*knock* *knock*
"Coming!!" Olivia said.
She carefully laid Noah in the swing that Nick gave her and rushed to the door. The only thing she could do when she opened the door was gasp.
"Hey, Liv." The mystery blonde said.
"Alex?" Olivia asked slowly.
"The one and only." Alex joked.
"What? How? When?" Olivia tried comprehending the situation.
"Can I come in? We need to talk." The ADA asked cautiously.
Olivia stepped aside to let the blonde enter the apartment.
