Just the Beginning
"Did I hit a nerve?" Olivia asked the suspect sitting across the steel interrogation room table from her.
She and Elliot had been working on a case for the past few weeks. She had been forced to ride a desk until her baby was born, but today she had to get in the interrogation room. The suspect saw her when they brought him in, and refused to talk to anyone else. Olivia knew that they needed his confession to put him away for molesting 4 young girls.
"Don't make me laugh Detective, I don't have nerves." The man smiled at her. He seemed so calm. It sent a shiver up Olivia's spine, although she refused to show it.
She wished that Elliot had been in the room with her, but the suspect wouldn't talk with him there. The only reason Elliot left Olivia was because the man's lawyer was in the room. Elliot stood directly at the door, just in case Olivia needed any help.
"I thought it was a heart you didn't have." Olivia countered, standing from her chair.
"You think you scare me Detective. A pretty thing like you couldn't scare a child, what makes you think you could ever scare aman like me?"He laughed.
"That's funny." Olivia said mockingly, cocking her head to the side. "I wasn't aware that I was talking to man." She spat. "I guess that I share the same feelings that your mother had for you."She whispered as she leaned over the table to her suspect.
The man looked at her inquisitively. He wanted to know what she was talking a bout.
Olivia caught on, and decided to let him in on her thoughts. "That you're nothing but a useless, spineless, coward, who will never amount to anything." She seethed.
That was too much for the already unstable man at the other end of the table. "Don't talk about me mother!" He yelled, as he threw himself out of his chair and at Olivia.
Olivia tried to jump out of the way as the suspect leapt over the table at her. His lawyer tried to grab him, but the man was too quick.
"Brent STOP!" His lawyer called.
The man didn't listen. He leapt over the table, and managed to grab a hold of Olivia. He used his momentum to throw her up against the two way mirror.
"God, please don't hurt the baby."She silently prayed, hoping that Brent would hit her face, and not her stomach. She wrapped her arms around her baby, just in case.
He began slamming Olivia's head against the glass. "You Bitch, don't talk about my mother, you bitch!" He yelled over and over as his lawyer tried, unsuccessfully, to pull him form Olivia.
"FREEZE!" Fin called as he rushed in the room with Much, Elliot, and Cragen, their guns drawn.
Elliot didn't wait for a response from the man. He charged forward, and lunged at Brent. He pried the man from his wife, and let his fist collide with his face.
"We got him Detective." Cragen called, snapping Elliot back to sanity. Elliot let Munch cuff the man, and rushed over to his wife.
Olivia had slid down the wall after Elliot ripped Brent away from her. She was unconscious.
"Olivia." Elliot called. He knelt down, and cradled her head in his lap. "Liv, baby." He called, trying to wake her. "Call a bus." He called over his shoulder.
"Olivia, come on, please Liv, wake up." He pleaded, tears starting to burn in his eyes. He stroked Olivia's pale face tenderly. "Don't worry. Help is on the way." He said, more trying to comfort himself than the woman lying limp in his arms.
"LIV!" Elliot yelled, shooting up from where his was sleeping.
"It's okay Elliot. It's okay." Munch said, touching his colleague's shoulder; letting him know that he was there.
Elliot quickly took in his surroundings. He was sitting on a hard hospital chair. He soon remembered that he was no longer in that interrogation room, but was now in the waiting room of the hospital, waiting for the doctors to tell him the condition of his wife.
"Did the doctor come out yet?" Elliot asked, worried that he had missed something in his sleep.
"No, no word yet." Munch answered sadly. He knew that Elliot was having a hard time with this. He loved Olivia, and their unborn baby.
"How could I have let her do that?" Elliot asked, as he put his head in his hands. "I knew that it wasn't safe. Everyone told us that she shouldn't be working in her condition, and I just let her go in there, alone."
"This isn't your fault." Munch whispered. He didn't want to wake the other people in the room. Casey, Alex, Fin, Huang, and Cragen were all waiting in the small room for word on their friend.
"I'm supposed to protect them." Elliot said quietly. "I should have been in there."
Before Munch could find anything else to say, a doctor entered the small room.
Elliot rose to meet him, and Munch woke the rest of the visitors.
"How are they?" Elliot asked.
"Olivia suffered some moderate head trauma. We won't know the extent of her injuries until she wakes up." The doctor revealed.
"How long will that take?" Cragen asked, now standing next to Elliot.
"We can't be sure. She is in a light coma. It's not too deep, so, in my opinion, she should be awake in at most, a few days." The doctor answered.
"What's the worst case scenario?" Elliot asked, needing to know the full extent of Olivia's injuries.
"At worst, she'll be brain damaged, at best; she'll wake up with a bad headache." The doctor answered truthfully. "But, like I said, we won't know the full extend of her injuries until she wakes up."
Elliot's heart sunk at the doctor's words. Fin placed a hand on his shoulder to remind him that the squad was there for him.
"What about the baby?" Elliot asked, not looking up. "Is it going to be okay?"
"Right now, the baby appears to be unharmed." The doctor began, causing Elliot to let out a small sigh of relief. "Your wife wasn't hit in her stomach. As long as Olivia's body is functioning, the baby will continue to thrive." He finished.
"Can I see her?" Elliot asked.
"She's still asleep, but I don't see the harm in it." The doctor answered, allowing Elliot toenterOlivia'sroom.
