A/N: At the end

 

"Oh God….Alex. Don’t stop!" Alex smirked at Olivia as she continued to move above her wife.

Leaning in close to Olivia’s ear, she whispered, "You are such a slut for this."

Breathing hard, Olivia replied, "Yeah….but I’m….your slut. Unhhh. Harder." Rising up on her forearms, Alex began to thrust harder and deeper.

"I love you Liv. Come for me, baby." Olivia jerked and shuddered beneath her. Struggling to catch her breath, she pulled Alex down to her.

"Love….you." Alex kissed her forehead, and watched as Olivia came back to herself. She withdrew from Olivia and rolled to her side. Un-strapping the harness, Alex removed it and rubbed Olivia’s belly. Somewhat recovered, Olivia smiled at Alex as she rolled the blond beneath her. Working her way down Alex’s body, she kissed and nipped at her flesh, eliciting a purr from her wife.

As she neared Alex’s center, she was stopped by her voice. "Liv….Liv?"

"Mmmmh?" Alex pulled on Olivia’s arm to get her attention.

"Do me with it." Olivia stopped her ministrations and looked up at Alex.

"Sweetie, just let me do it my way." Olivia resumed her trek, only to be stopped by Alex again.

"Do me with it, Liv." Olivia caught the edge to Alex’s voice, but ignored it by ducking her head away from Alex’s probing gaze.

"Just let me love you my way, please?" Not giving her time to reply, Olivia buried her face between Alex’s thighs. Inwardly, Alex cursed her body’s betrayal.

Hearing Kennedy’s cries, Alex eased out of bed and made her way to the nursery. Settling into the rocker, she began breastfeeding him. "Hey big guy." Glancing up at the clock, she whispered, "Happy three month birthday Kennedy."

After burping him, Alex carried him back into the bedroom and placed him in his bassinet. Exhausted, she collapsed into bed. Awaking the next morning, she saw Olivia playing with Kennedy.

"Morning sleepyhead." Alex groaned. Putting Kennedy back into the bassinet, she leaned down and kissed Alex. "You wore me out last night, sweetie." Alex gave her a small smile.

"You’ll be home in time for dinner, right?" Olivia nodded.

"It’s not every day you turn three months old." Kissing her again, she headed out to work. Eyeing Kennedy, and finding him asleep, Alex rolled over and went back to sleep herself.

Stopping to check the mail in the lobby of their building, Alex collected the mail and pushed the stroller out into the sunlight.

"Jenny! Over here!" She waved the redhead and her little girl over.

"Hi! Hello Kennedy!" Jenny pushed her stroller up next to Kennedy.

"Hello Sophie!" Alex waved to the one year old, who waved back.

"You look great Alex, a little tired, but great. Motherhood and marriage seem to agree with you." Jenny fingered the platinum wedding band on Alex’s ring finger.

"Thanks. Sorry I haven’t been in touch since the wedding, but it’s been hectic. And tiring."

Jenny waved her off. "I’ve been busy too. Any idea when you’re going back to work?" Alex shook her head. "Are you guys ok financially with you not working?" Alex nodded. "How’s Olivia?"

Alex’s smile dimmed. "She’s good." Jenny waited for her to continue. "I got this in the mail today." She handed Jenny a letter from the sperm bank she’d used. After reading the it, she looked at Alex.

"So?" Alex shrugged.

"I just hope Liv doesn’t feel threatened."

"Alex, you married her and she adopted Kennedy. Why would she feel threatened?"

"Just a feeling I have." Considering her words, she laughed. "You know, you’re probably right, Jenny. So tell me, anybody new in your life?" Jenny let out a bitter laugh.

"Right Alex. There are droves of women throwing themselves at a woman with a small child." Alex caught the wistful looking that crossed Jenny’s face. Placing a comforting hand on the redhead’s back the smiled at her. "I’ll be ok. It’s just, well, Carly’s moved in with someone."

Squeezing her shoulder, Alex said, "I’m sorry Jenny."

They sat in silence for a bit before Alex worked up the nerve to ask her what she’d set the whole meeting up for.

"Jenny? I need to ask you something." She waited for Jenny to look at her before continuing. "Did you and Carly ever use a…a…dildo?" Surprised, Jenny nodded.

"Not often, but yeah. Why?"

Alex started fussing with Kennedy’s blanket in an effort to avoid looking at her friend. "I told you about the issues Liv was having. Well, on our honeymoon, we used one. Actually, I used one on her. I’d used one before and had one used on me and I enjoy it. I was happy when Liv wanted me to use one on her."

"But?"

"Now it’s the only thing she seems to want. It’s the way I end up making love to her and the funny thing is, she won’t use one on me! And it was my idea!"

Jenny furrowed her brow. "Have you asked her why?"

"She says she doesn’t feel comfortable using one on me. She’s afraid she’ll hurt me."

Grinning, Jenny answered, "You’ll just have to show her otherwise."

"What do you mean?"

When she got home, Alex called the sperm bank. "Alexandra Cabot. Donor number 10057. Yes, I’ll hold." She played with Kennedy while on hold.

"Yes. Ok." She scribbled down the info she was given. "So…I just call him and that’s it?" She listened to her case manager explain the procedure for contacting the donor. Hanging up she looked down at Kennedy.

"I guess it’s time to call your daddy."

She waited for the call to be connected. "Crawford."

"Mr. Crawford, my name is Alex Cabot and I’m a client of the gay sperm bank. Are you donor 10057?"

"Yes I am. Do you have a child?"

Catching the urgency in his voice, she continued. "Yes. I have a son named Kennedy. Oliver Kennedy Cabot. He’s three months old today."

"A son? Is he ok? Is everything ok?"

"Yes, he’s fine. He was a bit premature, but he’s doing great."

"Good."

The silence stretched, each trying to figure out what to say next.

"Miss Cabot."

"Mr. Crawford."

They both laughed. "You go first Miss Cabot."

"Actually, it’s Mrs. Benson now. I’ve been married just over a month."

"Oh. I thought most of the clients who used the sperm bank were lesbians."

Alex laughed. "I am. My partner and I were married in Boston last month." She heard him exhale a breath.

"Good."

"Mr. Crawford?"

"Miss Ca…Mrs. Benson, I don’t mind helping people with my, uh, stuff, but I chose the gay sperm bank because it caters to lesbians. I just can’t bear the thought of some other man raising my child. Does that make sense?"

Alex pondered his comment. "I…guess."

"I’ll explain it better when we meet. Where are y’all located?"

"New York City. You?"

"I’m down south. Tennessee. I’m supposed to be in Hoboken this weekend for work. How about I give you and the Mrs. a call? I’d like to meet him."

Alex gave him their phone numbers and agreed to email some photos of Kennedy.

XXXXXXXXXXXX

Alex fixed Olivia’s favorite meal she could actually cook for dinner.

"Honey, I’m home!" Olivia smiled at her private joke.

"In here Liv!"

Entering the kitchen, she found Alex cooking and Kennedy watching her from his carrier on the counter top.

"Hey Co-Counsel! Does Mommy have you helping out? At least your sleepers are flame retardant." Alex swatted at her as she leaned in for a kiss. "Smells good. What’s the occasion?"

"No occasion other than his three month birthday. He’s too young for a favorite meal, unless you count breast milk, and I don’t. So, I decided to fix your favorite meal instead."

Olivia wrapped her self around Alex from behind. Kissing Alex’s neck, she said, "Thank you," before bounding up the steps to change.

Alex was feeding Kennedy his baby food and Olivia was cutting up her piece of roast as Alex began to speak. "I got a letter from the sperm bank today." She glanced at Olivia before continuing. "He’s three months today, and remember I told you I had to agree to meet with the father when he turned three months?"

Olivia stilled her movements with her fork half way to her mouth. "Ok."

"I spoke with him today. He’s going to be in Hoboken this weekend." Olivia dropped her fork.

"He lives in Hoboken?"

"No. He lives in Tennessee. He’s going to be in Hoboken for something work related this weekend."

"What do you know about him?"

Alex wiped Kennedy’s mouth. "His name is Wil-Henry Crawford, he’s from Tennessee and he’s very happy we’re lesbians." Alex laughed at the look on Olivia’s face.

"Why is he happy we’re lesbians?" Alex shrugged.

"Something about not wanting to have some other man raise his child."

"His child? His child? What rights does he have?"

"Relax Liv, he has no rights and he knows that."

Olivia nodded slowly. The rest of dinner passed by quietly and Alex could feel the tension growing. Having finished dinner, Olivia excused herself to go get the digital camera. Picking Kennedy up, Alex went into the living room and sat on the couch with him.

Setting up the tripod and the camera, Olivia focused and said, "Ok everybody, smile!"

After snapping a few more pictures, Alex swapped places with Olivia and took some photos of her. Setting the self timer, Alex joined Olivia on the couch and they sat for a family photograph.

As Olivia began to rise, Alex stopped her. "We’re his parents Olivia. Nothing is going to change that." Olivia gave her a sad smile and placed the camera next to the computer. Walking back to the couch, she took Kennedy from Alex and started up the steps with him.

"You should email him those pictures."

Alex did just that and as an after thought, she emailed one of the ones of them as a family to Olivia’s work address. Peeping in on Kennedy, she found him sleeping soundly. She was surprised to find the lights off and Olivia in bed when she got to the bedroom.

Easing under the covers, she cuddled Olivia from behind. Olivia feigned sleep.

"Olivia Benson, I know you are not asleep. Stop this nonsense and talk to me."

Olivia rolled over and let out a heavy sigh. "I’m afraid things are going to change. I’ve never been this happy before Alex, and I’m just scared he’s going to change everything."

"Oh baby….he’s part of the reason we have Kennedy." Olivia snorted.

"Yeah, half the reason. And you’re the other half, which leaves me out." Alex pulled Olivia to her and kissed her lips and then her eyelids and both cheeks.

"You’re wrong. He’s a third of the reason. I’m a third and that sperm propelling orgasm you gave me the day I was inseminated is the other third."

Again Olivia snorted. "Yeah, my ability to give you an orgasm meant so much."

"Some detective you are! Liv, almost no one gets pregnant the first time out with insemination. It usually takes two or three tries, so the fact that you made love to me that day, well, it certainly helped."

Olivia sniffed. "Really? I didn’t know that."

Alex kissed her again. "Yes, really. Now, I’d like to make love to my wife." Olivia hopped out of bed and hurried to the bathroom. She returned carrying the dildo and harness.

"Are you going to do me Detective?"

Olivia murmured against her lips, "Oh yeah." Olivia’s hands were everywhere and probing Alex’s opening.

"Please Liv…use it…..please!"

"No sweetie……"

Alex sighed in resignation and closing her eyes, she nodded. Olivia drew out Alex’s pleasure as much as possible before sending her over the edge. Not taking time to recover, Alex flipped Olivia over and began kissing her. Reaching for the dildo and harness, she strapped it on and applied lube.

Finding Olivia moderately wet, she entered her in one fluid motion, catching Olivia off guard.

"Uh! Alex! Owwww." Olivia caught the guilty look that crossed Alex’s face, as she stilled her movements.

"Did I hurt you?"

Shaking her head, Olivia began to move beneath Alex until she began moving again. Afraid she would hurt her more, Alex moved slowly and deliberately until she brought Olivia to completion.

Fetching a wet wash cloth, Alex cleaned Olivia and avoided making eye contact until Olivia pulled her down to face her. "I’m ok Alex, you just caught me by surprise."

"I didn’t mean to hurt you."

"I’m ok, are you?" Alex nodded. Cuddling into Olivia, she fell asleep quickly.

XXXXXXXXXXX

Olivia was surprised when Alex slept through Kennedy’s crying the next morning. Warming a bottle of breast milk, she carried him into their bedroom and fed him. She placed him in his bassinet and knelt in front of Alex. Brushing the hair off of her forehead, she whispered her name.

Opening one eye, Alex asked, "What time is it?"

"I’m about to leave for work. He’s been fed and changed and I put him in the bassinet. Are you ok?"

Alex yawned and snuggled back into the pillow. "Just tired. Is he asleep?" Olivia nodded and brushed a kiss across her cheek. "Good. Can you book a room for Hoboken? I’m going back to sleep."

Frowning, Olivia laid a hand on Alex’s forehead. Alex moved into her touch. Not finding a fever, she hesitated before leaving. Stopping to kiss Kennedy, she added, "You sleep for a while longer so Mommy can, ok?"

XXXXXXXXXXX

Elliot watched Olivia fidget with her watch for the fifth time in two minutes.

"Liv? What’s going on?"

She shook her head. "I’d have thought Alex would have called by now. She was really out of it this morning. She slept right through Kennedy’s crying." Elliot shrugged.

"She’s probably tired."

"What makes you say that?"

"You’re kidding, right? You guys have had a pretty busy year. Splitting-up, getting pregnant, having Kennedy, which if you recall, almost killed her, and then getting married. It’s bound to catch up with you sometime."

Olivia added, "It won’t get any better. We’re meeting Daddy this weekend." She put air quotes around "daddy."

"What?"

Leaning back in her chair, she explained to Elliot exactly what was going to happen the coming weekend.

"You check him out yet?"

Shaking her head she answered, "I’m not sure I want to know." Elliot looked at her expectantly.

"Ok, ok. I’ll run him through. And remind me to book a room." Her fingers flew across the keys, entering the information she had. Drumming her fingers on the desk while she waited, she was torn between hoping he was a secret felon and praying he was a saint.

"Damn!" Coming up behind her, he looked over her shoulder at her computer screen.

"At least he’s not a felon." She punched his arm.

"Shut-up." Elliot smirked.

"Like you weren’t hoping he was a dirt bag you could arrest."

"I was, but at the same time I’m glad he’s a stand-up guy. I wouldn’t want Kennedy to….."

Elliot finished for her, "Go through what you’ve gone through?" She nodded. Picking up the phone, she called the loft.

"….hello?"

"Sweetie? It’s me. Are you ok?"

In a sleep roughened voice she answered, "Yeah. We were just taking a nap."

Glancing at her watch, Olivia said, "It’s only 11am. Are you sure you’re ok?"

Alex groaned. "Liv, I’m ok. I’m just tired. I’m with Kennedy all day, every day and I take care of the house and every night I take care of you. I love you Liv, but it takes a lot of energy to strap that damn thing on and do you every night." Alex was shocked by what she said, and Olivia was stunned.

"Baby…."

"Sweetie…"

Both women giggled as they tried to talk at the same time.

"Sweetie, why didn’t you say something sooner?"

"I thought I could handle this. I still do, it’s just, hard. It takes a lot of energy."

"Oh Alex. We’ll talk about this when I get home, ok? And I’ll bring dinner home tonight. Oh, I forgot. I booked a room, so that’s all square."

Alex smiled into the phone and said, "I love you baby."

"And I love you and Co-Counsel, and we’ll do whatever is necessary to make this comfortable for you and him, ok?"

"Oh Liv? I can’t wait to hear what all you found out about Mr. Crawford." Olivia could have sworn she heard Alex giggle as she hung-up the phone.

Elliot noticed the sour look on Olivia’s face.

"What?"

"Am I that predictable?"

"Only when it comes to Alex and Kennedy. She feeling any better?"

"Yeah. Let’s go to lunch. I need some spouse advice."

XXXXXXXXXXXX

After ordering lunch, Elliot looked at Olivia and said, "Shoot."

Olivia filled him in on her conversation with Alex, minus the sex part. "How’d Kathy cope?" Elliot tilted his head as he recalled the early days of parenthood.

"Liv, we were so young and dumb, we didn’t know any other way of life. We couldn’t afford any help or programs with Maureen and Kathleen. By the time the twins came along, we were in a better place financially so we enrolled them in a Mother’s Day Out program. That helped a lot. Have you guys thought about a nanny?"

Olivia shook her head as she replied, "Right after the honeymoon, Meredith offered to hire a nanny. Live in or otherwise. Alex almost blew a gasket! She was offended by the thought that she couldn’t take care of Kennedy by herself."

"Then it’s up to you to show her she needs help."

XXXXXXXXXX

She found Alex and Kennedy sitting at the computer checking email when she arrived home.

Hey guys. How’s my family doing?" Picking Kennedy up, she nuzzled his head.

"Rested. How was your day?"

Kissing Alex she replied, "Good. Anything important in the email?"

Alex shook her head. "Just an email from Wil-Henry with his hotel info and a comment about how cute Kennedy is." Alex beamed as she said the last part. Olivia smiled back at her as she read the email over her shoulder.

"At least we’re staying at the same place."

Surprised, Alex asked, "Are you ok with that?"

"Yeah. I got this really nice picture in my email today of my family. It reminded me that no matter what, nothing is going to take my family away from me. You’re my wife and he’s my son. Besides, Crawford is family."

Standing up, Alex took Kennedy from Olivia. "You mean he’s gay? His profile said…." Olivia laughed.

"No. He’s law enforcement. Tennessee Bureau of Investigations."

"Oh. Anything else?"

"Mom’s a widow. His dad was highway patrol, killed in the line of duty. He’s 35, a graduate of Vanderbilt with a degree in Political Science and a minor in Criminal Psychology."

Alex nodded as she pulled on Liv’s hand. "Let’s go to bed. It’s been a while since we just lay in bed and talked."

After getting Kennedy down, they lay facing each other.

"Sweetie, I want us to consider putting Kennedy in a Mother’s Day Out program. Most of them are just one or two days a week and it would give you a break and me a chance to spend some time alone with him. I could drop him off on the mornings he was to go, and you could sleep in." Olivia was looking at Alex hopefully and praying she’d agree. When several minutes passed and she hadn’t said anything, Olivia hastened to add, "And when you return to work, it’ll be easier on him."

"He’s awfully young Liv."

"Sweetie, a lot of babies go into day care at six weeks."

"I know. He’s just, well, he’s young and he’s my baby." Olivia smiled at her and cupped her chin.

"I know, but he’ll be fine, I promise. I’m more concerned about you. You do need a break every now and then, and he needs to be around other children." Reluctantly Alex nodded.

"I’ll call Jenny. I think Sophie goes to some sort of program." Olivia kissed her. Speaking of Jenny, what do you think of Serena Southerlyn?"

"What does Serena have to do with Jenny?"

"I guess I did jump ship a bit. When I saw Jenny the other day she looked lonely. Her ex, Carly, just moved in with someone, and I thought maybe she and Serena might make a good couple. Serena wasn’t dating anyone the last time I saw her, and she wants kids."

"So you decided to play Cupid? God help us all. I hope this turns out better than your cooking." She moved out of the way just in time to avoid getting hit by a pillow. "What’s Serena doing now?"

"Smart ass. She’s working for GLAAD. So what do you think?"

"I guess it can’t hurt anything. But this is your project. Keep me out of it."

Olivia rolled onto her back and stretched out, causing her tank top to ride up and exposing her stomach.

Easing her hand underneath Olivia’s waistband, she began stroking her lower stomach. Olivia stopped her hand and brought it up to her mouth and kissed the knuckles.

"You need to rest sweetie, and I’ve been very selfish these last few weeks. I’m sorry."

"I didn’t mean what I said Olivia. I was just tired and cranky, but I’m rested now. I don’t mind doing that for you."

"But you wish I’d do that for you, right?" Alex nodded and Olivia sighed.

"Why won’t you Liv?"

"I’m just afraid of hurting you." Alex rolled her eyes.

"What makes you think you could hurt me with a dildo?"

Olivia bit her lip and looked away. "Last night you sort of hurt me, and I’m a lot stronger than you are."

Alex grimaced as she remembered making Olivia whimper the night before. "You weren’t completely ready and I didn’t do anything to help you with that. I’m sorry." Pushing the hair out of Olivia’s eyes, she continued, "Besides, I have had sex with a man before."

"Don’t remind me." Alex regarded her wife.

"What else?"

Blushing furiously, Olivia added, "I’ve never used one before."

"What?"

"I’ve never strapped one on and used it on someone before."

"We’ve used Pink."

"There’s a big difference in using that and strapping one on and using it on you. Pink was an accessory to our love making, not the main event."

Alex rolled over to Olivia and snuggled up to her. "Ignorance is no excuse, Detective. I can certainly show you how it’s done. Would you feel more comfortable if I did all of the work the first few times?"

"Huh?"

"Just trust me, ‘k?" Slowly Olivia nodded at her. "Meet me at the sex shop where you bought your dildo, tomorrow during lunch, ok?" Tugging Olivia’s arm closer around her, she drifted off to sleep.

XXXXXXXXXXXX

"So, Jenny, care to make a trip to the sex shop with me? I’m taking your advice about Olivia and the, uh, dildo. And I wanted to ask you about Sophie’s Mother’s Day Out program. Meet me around 11:30?"

XXXXXXXXXXX

"Serena, Alex Cabot. How have you been? Great. Do you have time for coffee today? Meet me around 11:30 at our usual spot."

XXXXXXXXXXX

"Hey Jenny. Let’s stop in and get some coffee, ok?" Alex held the door open for Jenny as they made their way into the coffee shop. Spotting Serena, she waved her other friend over. Both Jenny and Serena were checking each other out.

"Serena Southerlyn, Jenny Cook. Jenny is a friend I met at the single parents group, and Serena and I used to work together in the DA’s office." The three of them sat down and began catching up over coffee. Glancing at her watch, Alex saw that it was almost noon.

"I hate to run, but I’m supposed to meet Olivia at noon. You ladies have fun."

XXXXXXXXXX

"Why are we here Alex? Alex was busy inspecting the various sex toys in the shop. Picking up a purple silicon dildo, she turned to Olivia.

"What do you think about this one?"

Laughing nervously, Olivia replied, "That’s awfully big isn’t it?"

Holding the dildo up, she ran her hand down its length. "Baby? Think about the last thing that came out of me." Considering her words, Olivia blushed. Alex left her standing in the middle of the aisle as she proceeded to check-out.

XXXXXXXXXX

Olivia arrived home to a darkened house. Peeking in the nursery, she found the baby asleep. Moving down the hall, she found Alex waiting for her. "Hey sweetie." Noting the candles, she raised an eyebrow at Alex.

"Come here baby." Olivia began stripping as she made her way to the bed, and as Alex reached for her, Olivia nuzzled her neck and began kissing her. "Liv, do you trust me?"

"Yes."

Smiling, Alex pulled her hand between her legs and murmured, "Do what you do best baby." Olivia began teasing her opening and Alex fell into the rhythm set by her fingers. "I want you to fuck me." Olivia nodded, as Alex took her hand and pushed her onto her back.

Reaching into the nightstand, she took out the harness and new dildo. Alex placed a finger over Olivia’s mouth and whispered, "Trust me. Lift your hips baby." Olivia did as she was told and watched as Alex fastened the harness around her, and applied lube to the dildo.

Olivia’s eyes grew wide as Alex straddled the dildo and slowly lowered and then raised herself on the dildo. Reaching out, Alex linked hands with Olivia and watched as her wife’s nipples grew hard. "See something you like Liv?" Never taking her eyes off the sight of Alex riding the purple dildo, she nodded.

"Move your hips baby."

"Fuck!" Olivia moved her hands to Alex’s hips and held her as she thrust upwards. Olivia’s breathing became heavier and Alex’s hands began to roam over her breasts. "Touch yourself Alex, for me."

Holding Olivia’s gaze, she ran her middle finger over her swollen nub, and she watched Olivia’s eyes follow her fingers path. Olivia brought her thumb around and applied pressure to Alex’s fingers, causing Alex to jerk forward as her orgasm hit her.

Olivia rolled them onto their sides and watched as Alex’s breathing returned to normal. "Alex?

"Hmmm?"

"Sweetie, I need you. Now."

Smirking, she moved off of the dildo and reached down to unfasten the harness. She smiled as she found the harness soaked with a mixture of her and Liv’s juices. She leaned down and kissed Olivia. "See something you like Detective?"

Trying to recapture Alex’s lips, Olivia stretched her neck in the direction of Alex. Alex was reaching for the nightstand drawer when Olivia’s hand stopped her.

"I want you, nothing else."

Alex’s _expression softened as she gave a slight nod to her wife and slid down Olivia’s body. Burying her face between the brunette’s legs, she held on as Olivia squirmed under her tongue’s pressure. Soon, she brought her wife to completion.

 

As they lay sated, Olivia pulled Alex to her. "You knew what the sight of that would do to me, didn’t you?"

"I hoped."

XXXXXXXXXX

Arriving at the loft early Friday afternoon, Olivia frowned at the amount of luggage Alex had packed for their trip. "Do we really need all of this stuff?"

"Better to be safe than sorry." Alex fastened Kennedy into his car seat and settled into the front seat while Olivia was busy loading the trunk.

As they got closer to Hoboken, Olivia grew quieter.

"Everything ok Liv?"

Not taking her eyes off the road, she answered, "Yeah. Just thinking about this guy and how our lives might change after this weekend."

"Nothing’s going to change Liv." Olivia wasn’t sure she believed that, but let the comment slide anyway.

Alex touched her arm and said, "Let’s just get to the hotel and see if they have a restaurant so we can eat, ok?"

XXXXXXXX

After they checked in, they went into the restaurant and Alex got out a jar of baby food for Kennedy. Olivia excused herself to go to the bathroom.

Alex was busy talking to Kennedy when she felt a hand on her shoulder. "That was quick Liv." As she turned in the direction of the hand. She found not Olivia but a stranger, who was busy staring at her and Kennedy.

"Can I help you?" Alex was scanning the room for any sign of Olivia.

"Are you Alex Cabot?"

Feeling a bit panicky, she stammered, "Y-Yes. And you are?"

"Wil-Henry Crawford. And this must be Kennedy?" He motioned toward Kennedy.

Releasing a breath and allowing her shoulders to sag, she nodded before getting up to shake his hand. Coming out of the restroom, Olivia saw the initial exchange and started in the direction of her family.

"Is there a problem Alex?" Olivia took a moment to size up the tall stranger and ignored his proffered hand.

"Wil-Henry Crawford. You must be Detective Second Grade Olivia Benson?"

"Agent Crawford, TBI, please do not sneak up on my wife again. As I’m sure you know, she was once in Witness Protection."

"Oh God. I’m sorry. I never thought about that." Olivia fixed him with a stare.

"Obviously. How’d you know who she was?" He pulled out a print out of one of the pictures she’d emailed him. Olivia nodded, as they continued to stare at each other.

"I caught an earlier flight and was just about to get something to eat." Olivia hated to admit it, but he was a good looking man. He had dark skin, hair and eyes and was broad shouldered, with high cheekbones. She hated him, but had to admit, Kennedy was going to be a hunk when he was older.

"If you two are done sizing each other up, why don’t we sit down and have dinner?" It was not lost on Alex that Olivia was the last to sit down and that she slid her arm across the back of the booth and casually dropped it around her shoulder.

 

After they ordered, Crawford looked at Alex and asked, "Do you mind if I hold him?"

"Uh, no. Go ahead." He un-strapped Kennedy and held him out for inspection.

"He’s going to have my coloring. Dark skin with blue eyes. You ladies better plan on having the birds and the bees talk with him at an early age."

Olivia frowned and before she could say anything, Alex gave her hand a squeeze.

"Thank you Alex for sending the photos. I sent them on to my mother and she was tickled pink."

"So he met with her approval?"

"Yes. I was wondering if you two had any objections to my mother meeting him? Not now of course, but sometime in the future."

Alex looked at Olivia who deferred to Alex. "I think that would be nice."

"I brought some of my baby pictures in case you wanted to see what he might look like." Alex smiled.

"Thank you."

Turning his attention to Olivia, he began, "Find anything interesting in my file Detective?"

"About as much as you found in mine, Agent."

"Sex crimes. Interesting choice. Why?"

Alex noted the change in Olivia’s posture.

"You graduated in the top ten of your class. Why go state instead of federal?"

He shrugged. "My mother. As I’m sure you know, my father was THP and killed in the line of duty. My mother wasn’t happy when I decided on a career in law enforcement instead of law. My father died when I was 11, and I still recall the look of fear that was in my mother’s eyes every time he left for work. State isn’t as dangerous as federal, so it was my compromise."

Olivia nodded. She couldn’t argue with a dead father and love of mother excuse.

"Now answer my question, why sex crimes?"

Alex started to respond. But Olivia stopped her. "My mother was raped." He nodded.

Kennedy started kicking and cooing. "Nobody’s ignoring you baby. We’re all right here." She reached over and stroked his head.

"He wants his breast milk Alex." Glancing from Olivia to Wil-Henry, she blushed. Excusing herself, she scooped him up and headed in the direction of the bathroom. "She’s self-conscious about breastfeeding in public."

He watched her retreating form with an appreciative eye. "See something you like, Agent?"

Sliding his eyes in her direction he answered, "She’s a beautiful woman. You both are."

Fixing him with an icy stare, Olivia responded, "Agent Crawford, we don’t do three ways."

"Excuse me?"

"We don’t do three ways, we’re married."

"Detective Benson, where I come from a man doesn’t try to horn in on another man’s family. Gay, straight, or whatever. And I sure as hell don’t share my partners or bed with anyone else. Do I make myself clear?"

Olivia gave him a curt nod.

"How’d you survive those two years she was gone? It’s obvious you’re wild about her."

Olivia looked away before answering. "She’s not the only one who lost two years of her life." She felt his hand cover hers and they shared a look.

"Who?" Now it was him who looked away.

"My college sweetheart. My first case was undercover. She didn’t know and we’d had a fight. She came to my apartment to try and patch things up, and well, things went badly. She got caught in the crosshairs. Literally."

"I’m sorry. Is that why you donate?" He nodded.

"I don’t ever want to look into the eyes of a loved one and see the fear I saw in my mother’s eyes, and I don’t want to leave a child behind, like I was. However, being the typical man that I am, I wanted to know my genes were going to be passed on." He smiled and shrugged.

"Here comes Alex."

Placing a much happier Kennedy into his carrier, she looked between the two people seated in the booth.

"Everything ok?" They nodded.

"Ladies, I have an early day tomorrow. I should be finished by late afternoon. How about we do dinner tomorrow night?" They agreed and Alex watched him retreat in the direction of his room.

"You seem more at ease since I breastfed. Something happen while I was away?"

"Come on. I’ll tell you about it once we get Co-Counsel down for the night."

Settling into bed, Olivia told Alex about her conversation with Crawford.

"I can’t believe you mentioned a 3 way to him!"

"Hey! You should have seen the way he was looking at your ass! How would you like it if somebody looked at me that way?" Looking at Olivia, she smirked.

"Does the name Maxine mean anything to you?" Olivia opened and closed her mouth.

"I believe you just proved my point Alex."

"Yes, but Agent Crawford hasn’t kissed me, nor do I plan on him kissing me." Alex tilted her head as if considering something important. "Although, he is quite handsome. And with feet that big, I bet he’s hung."

"Alex! That’s our son’s father!"

"Then he’ll make some woman very happy someday."

"You did not just say that? And besides, who says it’ll be a woman?" Considering her words, Alex and Olivia cringed at the same time.

"Let’s skip talk of sex and Kennedy until after he’s given us grandkids, ok Liv?"

"Sounds good to me."

Olivia awoke the next morning to the sight of Alex feeding Kennedy. Stretching in the bed, she smiled at the sight. Alex was swaying her shoulders back and forth as she hummed to Kennedy. Easing up behind her, Olivia asked, "Any chance he’ll go back to sleep after you feed him?"

"I don’t think so. Sorry." Kissing Alex, Olivia turned and went to the shower.

Once she finished, she took Kennedy so Alex could take a shower.

"Are you a Sinatra fan Alex?"

"Not really, why?" Alex had taken Kennedy and was holding him close.

"Well, the sight seeing venues in Hoboken are lacking. We have the Sinatra Museum on Monroe Street, the Phantom Bridge on 12th Street and, Our Lady of Grace Church."

"Too bad Munch isn’t here. He’d love the Phantom Bridge. Wouldn’t he Kennedy? How about church?"

Olivia laughed before suggesting a stroll around a nearby park.

They returned to the hotel by early afternoon and put Kennedy down for his nap. Olivia caught Alex yawning. "Why don’t you come and lay with me sweetie?" She pulled Alex down onto the bed with her and snuggled in close.

Running her thumb underneath Alex’s eyes, she said, "You look tired Alex. Have you given any more thought to a Mother’s Day Out program?" Yawning, Alex nodded.

"We have an appointment Tuesday morning to take a look at the program where Jenny takes Sophie. Can you make it?" Olivia nodded.

"You know, Crawford isn’t so bad. Remind me to ask him if he played any sports in high school." Alex drifted off with a small grin on her face.

Leaning over her wife, Olivia whispered her name once again in an attempt to rouse her. When that didn’t work, she gently shook her. "Alex, come on sweetie. We have to meet Crawford in half an hour."

Stretching and yawning, she managed to get up and brush out her hair. Studying her reflection in the mirror, she said, "Let’s go."

XXXXXXXX

They were met in the lobby by Wil-Henry who wanted to know if he could hold Kennedy. Alex handed him over and they walked across the street to a seafood restaurant. The hostess seated them in a booth and fussed over Kennedy. As she turned to leave she looked between Alex and Wil-Henry.

"You have an adorable baby. He looks like his daddy." Looking at Olivia, she added, "And his aunt."

Crawford and Olivia looked at each other, while Alex spoke up. "Actually, he’s our son." She motioned between herself and Olivia. "And this is his biological father." She fixed the hostess with a sugary smile.

"Things like that happen to you all often?"

Olivia answered, "Not usually. Of course, we haven’t really had him out that much." Alex shrugged.

Before the quiet could become uncomfortable, Olivia started asking questions.

"Did you play any sports in high school?" He nodded.

"I played basketball, football and baseball. I played baseball at Vanderbilt."

Her curiosity piqued, she asked, "What position in football?

"Wide receiver and I was the back-up place kicker. Why?"

Olivia’s face lit up. "Kennedy has a great right foot. He kicked like crazy when Alex was pregnant, and even now he’ll get that little foot going. I have my eye set on a NFL contract for him."

Alex rolled her eyes. "Excuse my wife, she has an over active imagination."

Nudging her arm, Olivia countered, "I thought you liked my imagination?" Alex blushed and Wil-Henry laughed.

"Let me ask you two a question, are you going to have any othyer children?"

Alex nodded while Olivia refused to meet his eyes. "Yes. The only hold up is whose eggs we'll use." Olivia sighed.

"Alex....."

Waving her off, Alex continued."But that's a ways off. We will of curse be using your, uh, stuff as you call it."

"Good. Only children get lonely. I should know."

Alex replied, "It appears we are all only children. Not Kennedy." She cast a glance at Olivia who looked away.

After dinner they walked back to the hotel and sat in the lobby. Wil-Henry took out a digital camera and asked if they’d mind taking a few pictures of him and Kennedy. Olivia obliged and snapped several photos of him holding Kennedy and then he took some photos of Alex and her holding him.

Before retiring to his room, he pulled out a small box. "This belonged to my father and I’d like for Kennedy to have it. If that’s ok?"

Alex opened the box and saw that it was a signet ring. "Are you sure?" He nodded.

"I’m never going to have a child of my own, and he’s the first that’s been born using my, uh, stuff, so I think it’s only right."

"Thank you for helping us have our son." Olivia stuck her hand out to shake his, and was surprised when he pulled her into a hug.

XXXXXXXXXX

After getting Kennedy down for the night, Alex made her way into the bathroom and began getting ready for bed. She was surprised when Olivia wrapped her up in her embrace and kissed her neck.

"I want you."

"Oh do you Detective?" She turned Alex to face her and began a slow exploration of the blonde’s mouth.

"You didn’t happen to bring your purple friend did you?" Alex’s eyes lit up.

"As a matter of fact, I did. Any reason why?" Olivia began slowly undressing Alex as she led her to the bed. Motioning in the direction of Alex’s bag, she nodded. Finding what she was looking for, she laid the items on the nightstand and rejoined Alex on the bed.

Pressing her into the mattress, she could feel Alex’s desire and grinned. "I hope you never stop feeling this way about me."

Pulling her down, Alex whispered, "Always and only for you." She tried to turn them over, but Olivia held her ground and shook her head at Alex. She reached for the dildo and stood up and slipped the harness on and applied lube. Alex bit her lip in anticipation.

"Are you sure?"

Climbing back on the bed and settling herself between Alex’s legs she nodded. Taking hold of the dildo, she guided it to Alex’s center and pushed forward. Alex released a low moan as she accepted Olivia’s full weight. Tentatively Olivia began to move, but Alex stopped her.

"What?" Alex gave her a reassuring smile.

"I just want to feel you a little while longer." Olivia waited until Alex began to move beneath her. Her pace was slow and gentle at first, but Alex urged her to go faster and harder. She dug her nails into Olivia’s back as her orgasm ripped through her body. Olivia tried to move off of her, but Alex stopped her.

"Your weight makes me feel safe, loved. Stay." She pulled at Olivia.

"Sweetie, let me take this thing off and I promise to come right back, ok?" Alex waited while Olivia did just that.

She settled back between Alex’s legs and was almost asleep when she felt Alex fingering her scratches.

"I’m sorry baby."

"You were a little wild. I liked that."

"You inspire me Liv."

"I love you Alexandra Cabot Benson."

"And I love you Olivia Marie Benson." From across the room, Kennedy let out a string of coo’s and gibberish.

"We love you too Kennedy."

Alex was almost asleep when Olivia murmured in her ear, "Do you think your purple friend is bigger than Agent Crawford?"

Alex elbowed Olivia and laughed. "I have no clue, nor do I plan on finding out! Now go to sleep."
