I was on a date with Al everything was going good then I looked down i was getting a phone call from a private number saying there was a car accident. There is one dead and another one injured because today Carisi had to transport Jules Hunter to a safe house then she could testify about her husband Nick Hunter. I said thank you to Officer Eddie on the phone and i hung up my phone call everything about my date with Al was wrong on so many levels i had a bad gut feeling before i came on this date and i quickly paid for my food and tipped the waiter and when i was leaving Al suggested a third date and i said i don't think so and I called Liv what happened and she will meet me there i wasn't dressed up on for this date i was only wearing jeans and a blouse and jacket and gloves and boots.
I pulled up in my Jeep and I saw the SUV that Carisi used all mangled up and i saw the medical examiner writing out the paperwork about the deceased i started to cry thinking it was Carisi then a paramedic tapped my shoulder to look at the ambulance there he was covered in blood and alive and i was walking towards the second paramedic and Carisi the paramedic was explaining to him that he should go to the hospital and get himself checked out i placed my hand on his shoulder Carisi was covered in blood from his head to his hands to his clothes then eventually Liv showed up and Carisi explained what happened that he was driving and he and Jules Hunter got rammed by another car but the driver is in the wind and he was wearing a cap and Liv placed her hand on Carisi's shoulder. After Carisi explained everything the paramedic said that Carisi should go to the hospital and get himself checked out and he said sorry for destroying my night and I said he didn't. I asked the paramedic if I could join him. After I got into the ambulance I rang my babysitter I asked her if she would stay a bit longer and she agreed. After seeing Carisi hurt and injured I realised I can't see Al anymore.
Eventually Carisi got checked out by a doctor everything came back clear but Carisi has a concussion when the doctors were checking Carisi out i went to Cardiology department and i saw Al and I told him that we aren't made for each other and good luck who ever he dates next I got back into the elevator to take me back to the emergency department when I got there Carisi's doctor was waiting for me and he told me Carisi has a concussion and he shouldn't be alone for tonight and no work for the next few days and he can go home tonight. Fin drove my Jeep home since he texted me telling me and he ordered an Uber back to his place because Liv gave him the low down on what happened and she said i left my car at the location and Fin said he will retrieve my car for me since i am at the hospital with Carisi.
I walked into the hospital room Carisi is in and he was shocked to see me there and I said we were going back to my place and he started to protest . I started to say he should come with me and stay with me tonight he gave up protesting me. I put my arm around his shoulder while pulling out my phone with my other hand and I ordered a taxi which would arrive in five minutes. Eventually we walked out of the hospital and into the taxi I kept my arm wrapped around Carisi and I gave the taxi driver my address. We eventually got to my apartment and I paid for the taxi and I slowly got Carisi out of the taxi eventually we got out and i wrapped my arm around his shoulder we walked up the stairs together and i knocked on my door and my sitter opened the door and i said thank you and I put Carisi down on my sofa and I put his legs on my coffee table and I walked over to the sitter I explained what happened to the sitter and I paid her double for staying with Jesse.
I opened the door to the sitter and I said thank you for staying with Jesse for me. I walked back inside to my apartment and I walked over to Carisi who is looking motionless and I grabbed his hand to take to the bathroom but first after i placed him on the toilet i went into my bedroom to grab the sweatpants and the blue shirt he left here it has been awhile since he has been here i was to wrapped in being Al's bubble i am glad that burst tonight i walked back into the bathroom i slowly stripped Carisi of the bloody clothing he was wearing i turned on the shower he slowly climbed in I undressed myself and i climbed in and i slowly started wash the blood of his head and hands and arms then i wrapped my towel around him and i dried him off and he let me dress him and i took the towel and wrapped myself in it we walked to my bedroom I placed him on the right side of the bed. Then I went to my dresser. I grabbed my leggings and shirt and put them on. I climbed into bed. I started to stroke his cheek and Carisi looked at me and started blinking at me. I asked him the questions where he is and who I am and what is today and what's the date. He eventually answered me slowly and I set an alarm for a few hours. I had mini cat naps while being worried about Carisi.
Eventually my alarm went off and I asked him the same questions and he responded and he slowly came back to normal and I closed my eyes and Carisi did too. Then I felt a little lump in my bed. It was Jesse and she was extremely happy to see Carisi in my bed. She put her little hands around Carisi's neck and Carisi placed his hands on her back letting her cuddle into him and she kissed him on the cheek. I felt Carisi's eyes on me and he wrapped an arm around my waist.
By the next morning I woke up to no one there and climbed out of my bed and i smelt something good it was Carisi cooking with Jesse and Jesse said Mama's awake and Carisi gave me a hot cup coffee and a plate of food scrambled eggs with bacon and french toast and then he set Jesse down with her kids plate of food and his plate of food. Carisi's cooking is homely. After we finished eating I started to do the dishes and Carisi gave Jesse a bath and he changed her clothes and put on a new diaper for her. After Jesse was cleaned and bathed Carisi handed her to me. I put Jesse down on the couch and I turned on the TV for her. I hugged Carisi and i started to cry he placed his hands on my cheeks and wiping my tears away and asked what is wrong i told him through my tears about last night and we started to sway and then my phone rang it was Liv and i answered through my tears and she said we have a lead about Nick Hunter and she asked me to pass my phone to Carisi he wrapped one hand into his shoulder soothing me and Liv said to him please take some days off because she knows that he is traumatised from last night especially being covered in blood and trying to save a woman and he kissed the top of my head and Jesse could sense i was sad and she climbed off the couch and wrapped her hands around Carisi's leg while he was still on the phone to Liv then he passed my phone back and Liv said she will see me in the next hour I hung up my phone call with Liv. I am feeling calmer now since being in his embrace and he places another kiss on the top of my forehead and he lets me go and get ready and i went and got changed for work and i grabbed my phone and Carisi asked what I am doing i said calling Jesse's babysitter so she can take her to daycare and pick her up. Carisi suggested that he would do that for me and he picked up Jesse from his leg and placed her on his hip and I grabbed my bag which contained my badge, my gun and my wallet and i placed my phone and Carisi gave me my car keys and he said he will grab his items from his pants he was wearing last night.
It reached five pm and Nick Hunter got Scott free of the murder of his wife Jules. We didn't have any proof and he was awarded custody of his daughter. Fin called him a scumbag while I was writing up the police report and putting details into Vicap. Carisi walked into the precinct wearing a henley and jeans and sneakers and Jesse was on his shoulders and Fin said “well well look what the cat dragged in how are you feeling Carisi” Carisi said to Fin “well my concussion is gone i went to my doctor and he said everything is good and i will be back soon” Liv walked out and she was shocked seeing Carisi with Jesse and Liv asked Carisi to step into her office and Carisi passed Jesse to me and Jesse cuddled into me and i asked her how her day at daycare was and she said good and Fin was smiling at us then Fin asked me how did my date with the good doctor went i said I have stopped seeing him because i noticed someone else and while giving him a smile and Carisi walked out of Liv's office with Liv and Fin is like oh now I see who you belong with while shaking his head and Carisi and Liv were at the trail end of their conversation and Carisi pulled out my chair for me and he grabbed my handbag and we said goodnight to Liv and Fin.
Carisi took my car keys to my jeep and opened the back door to the passenger seats and took Jesse from my arms and placed her toddler seat and he opened my passenger door and I climbed in and I put on my seat belt on and Carisi climbed into my driver's seat and started driving us back to my apartment Carisi parked my jeep in the driving park. And Carisi opened the driver door and opened the passenger door and he unclipped Jesse from her toddler seat and Jesse nuzzled her head into his shoulder and he went over and opened my door and I grabbed my bag and Carisi locked my car for me while holding Jesse.
The three of us walked up the stairs and I opened the door to my apartment and Carisi sat down on the couch with Jesse and I got changed into more comfortable clothes then I walked out and I called Jesse to read at the dinner table which she did. Carisi tapped his lap and I climbed into his lap and he wanted to know what happened between me and Al. I tried not to cry but I couldn't stop crying and through my tears I realised that i didn't belong with Al at all i just got bad vibes from him and i didn't feel safe with him and i said i love you to Dominick Carisi Jr the only man that i can trust with my heart and tears started to drop i started to climb off his lap while saying “I am too late since you are with Arielle” but he grabbed me softly around my waist and placed me back in his lap and he places a hand through my hair and we started to kiss and I pulled away Carisi “ you aren't late at all Arielle and I broke up a few months ago and I love you too Rollins” pressing his nose up against mine giving me an eskimo kiss and Jesse pulled out of her chair and ran into my lap and Carisi placed a kiss on her forehead and i never felt more safe than i ever did in my life and Jesse climbed off my lap and I climbed off Carisi's lap I went into the bathroom to give Jesse a bath after Jesse was nice and clean Carisi was making us a Lasagna for dinner i placed Jesse in her high chair and Carisi put the Lasagna in the oven and i saw him writing something out it was disclosure papers and he asked me for my signature and I asked how did know I was the one for him he just looked over at Jesse then it clicked to me ever since Jesse was born which was two nearly three years ago and he handed me a pen to sign and Carisi said “well time to hand these papers to Liv on Monday”
Months later Al got arrested for raping a woman at the hospital and he got fired and lost his medical licence and for us I got pregnant again this time with the right guy and Carisi and Fin and Stone were betting on if i was carrying a girl or a boy or twins. The only person who knew was Liv and she gave me a hug and she asked me if she is the godmother of this baby Carisi. I was like who else and the godfather is Carisi and I was talking about either Fin or Stone which went to Fin. Carisi took me and Jesse to Staten Island. We got to meet the entire Carisi clan even though I know Mia, Teresa and Bella and Tommy. I got to meet Gina and Serafina and Dominick Sr. I gave birth on January 18th 2019 to a little girl and Carisi surprised me with a surprise wedding which was our girl's christening as the disguised we named her Billie Mabel Carisi and I surprised Carisi with adoption papers for Jesse they were both over the moon eventually Carisi moved to ADA office and I got promoted to Sergeant and I fell pregnant with our last child a boy who we named Dominick Carisi III. Originally I had rose tinted glasses on and now my eyes are wide open
