Who Was My Mother?

Chapter 14

16 - 15 1/2 years earlier

Author's POV

They days at the hospital passed.

Olivia was slowly getting better, and the doctors were positively surprised by her recovery.

The latest scan showed that she only had one tumor in her breast now. The others were gone!

Elliot was with Olivia all the time. He also had Noah for as long as Olivia managed. When she got too tired, someone from the squad came to take Noah. Mostly Alex, Fin or Nick. Casey wanted to take him, but Olivia was stubborn and said that she had to spend time with her husband. Btw she didn't have that mich energy, being pregnant!

Olivia and Elliot talked alot these days. They talked about old times, old cases, long nigths in cars outside victims or perps apartments, how it was like when Elliot left, about Olivia's cancer, about Elliot's kids and about Noah. They could talk for hours and hours.

Elliot only went home to shower and change. He always came back with pizza's, burgers or thai. Olivia didn't really like the hospital food...

Elliot also slept in the hospital, so the nurses had put up an extra bed in Olivia's room, but when Olivia was sad or scared, Elliot climbed into her bed, holding her tightly.

Days, weeks and months passed. Noah was getting bigger and was now talking all the time.

Olivia had grown alot stronger and she had a scan today.

"So Olivia. We got great results today!" The doctor said. No one called Olivia, Benson, here.

"The test results showed that your tumor is gone. There are no sights of it left. We will stop the chemo next week, and in about ten days, if you're still doing good, you might be able to go home!"

Olivia was speachless. She felt like she could jump up and hug the doctor, but she limited it to a big smile.

These ten days went slow. Too slow for Olivia. She was stopped on the chemo, and had already packed her stuff.

She was just sitting on her computer waiting for the doctor to tell her to go home.

Even though she was cancer free, she was always reminded of it by her bare scalp. She missed her hair.

The day came when Olivia got discharged.

Elliot and Noah were picking her up.

She had been hospitilized for nearly six months now, and all that time she hadn't been really outside.

She stopped by the car and just stood there, breathing the fresh air, taking in the weak November sun. She could stay like this for hours, but little Noah pulled her out of her dreams.

"Mommy let's go. Home!"

Home. Olivia had been waiting so long to hear those words. The went into the car and drove of, away from the hospital.

When Elliot parked the car outside Liv's aparment, he took the bags from her, while she led Noah up the stairs.

Everything was like she left it. Except Noah's toys. They had been with nearly all of the team members now.

The three of them sat down on the couch.

"So Liv, I was thinking of making dinner. What would you like?" Elliot asked politely.

He made delicious steaks and they ste all together.

After dinner, Olivia went to put Noah to bed, and 15 minutes later she cane back into the livingroom.

"So, what would you like to do?" Elliot asked smiling.

"How about a movie?" Olivia proposed.

They put on some sort of comedy, but none of them knew what it was about, since they were making out on the couch.
