So, I randomly got this idea for a Bensidy story in my head and it's a bit different but, it's Bensidy so, I hope you like it!

Olivia wasn't sure what had awaken her but when she blinked her eyes open she was more than happy to see Brian's smiling face hovering over her. "What?" she asked innocently.

Their night before had been filled with some much needed grown up time after the kids had went to bed. They had finished off a bottle of wine that had been in the cabinet collecting dust and then they proceeded into their bedroom where the fun kept on going. The past few weeks had been rough for them with Paige's broken arm and Allison's concussion. They had been in a car accident with their babysitter while Olivia and Brian were at work and they were no less than panicked. They had been keeping a very close watch on the girls ever since the accident and made sure that they were healing and doing okay.

"I was thinking," Brian smirked as he propped his head up with his hand, "that we could go one more time before the girls get up."
Olivia laughed and pushed the covers tumbling to the floor; revealing her exposed body. It was still early in the morning, pushing seven-thirty and the seven and five year old usually got up around eight. Olivia didn't think anything about the bedroom door behind unlocked.

Brian straddled Olivia and gently kissed his way down her stomach. He was just about to reach her pleasure spot when he heard his youngest daughter's voice.

"Mommy?"

Olivia pushed Brian off of her and grabbed the covers off the floor; making sure to cover her and Brian up. Her faced flushed with embarrassment. She cleared her throat before talking. "What is it, Love?"

"There's thunder," Paige mumbled as she stood in the doorway rubbing her eyes.

Olivia and Brian must have been too preoccupied to notice that there was a small storm happening outside.

"Why don't you go turn some cartoons on in the living room and Daddy and I will be out there in just a second to make breakfast," Olivia offered.

"Okay but hurry!" Paige took off running toward the living room with her favorite blanket dragging along.

Brian sighed of relief when Paige was out of sight. "Well... that was embarrassing..."

"You think?" Olivia scoffed. She climbed out of bed and put her pajamas back on, not ready to get dressed for the day. It was Sunday and Sunday was definitely her lazy day. She shut the door behind her as she made her way into the living room so Brian could get dressed in peace.

"Mommy, I don't like storms," Paige stated as she joined Olivia's side in the kitchen. "They scare me."

Olivia rubbed the top of Paige's head, "It's okay, Hon. Mommy and Daddy won't let anything happen to you." She continued to grab things from the refrigerator for breakfast until she heard the loud roll of thunder that Paige had been talking about.

"Mommy!" Paige ran straight into Olivia's leg and wrapped her arms around it tight.

"It's okay," Olivia assured her as she sat the container of blueberries down on the counter. She bent over and scooped Paige up in her arms. "How about you help me make pancakes?"
Paige looked up at her mother with her pale blue eyes, "Okay."

Paige always liked to help Olivia out in the kitchen because it made her feel like a big girl. Especially since Allison was big enough to set the table and she wasn't.

"It smells good," Brian commented as he made his way into the front of the house, "what are you making?"

"Pancakes!" Paige answered excitedly as she moved out of the way to show Brian the batter.

"Looks tasty," he said as he reached for a blueberry and popped it into his mouth.

Olivia gave him a disapproving look. He knew how much she hated when he did that, especially when she was in the process of cooking something for him.

"Where's Allison?"

"She's still asleep," Olivia replied as she poured some of the batter into a pan on the stove, "can you check the weather channel real quick? I haven't got a chance to look outside yet and I'd like to know what's going on."

"Sure."

Olivia and Brian had both dealt with their fair share of storms and hurricanes living in New York and they were never too worried. Having kids changed that though. If there was a bad storm coming in they needed to be prepared and make sure they children wouldn't be in harms way.

Brian searched for the remote which he found hidden under Paige's blanket and flipped it to the weather channel only to have it interrupted by an emergency alert broadcast.

The loud and annoying alarm buzzed causing Paige to cling to Olivia's side once again. Olivia took the pancake out of the pan and platted it so she could go into the living room to see what was going on.

"This national weather service has issued a hurricane warning. A hurricane warning remains in effect for the following counties..."

Brian and Olivia both listened to the counties mentioned and weren't too pleased when theirs was read. Brian flipped the television off and joined Olivia at the window to get a peak at the sky. The dark cirrus clouds were a dark gray, almost blue color and they covered the whole sky. The wind was strong and blowing all of the trees down below at Central Park. It wasn't long until they saw a strike of electric blue crack the sky.

"Okay," Olivia sighed stepping away from the window so Paige couldn't see, "why don't you go wake your sister up for breakfast?"

Paige nodded and took off down the hallway and into the room she shared with her big sis.

"What are we going to do?" Olivia asked turning toward Brian. Usually when a hurricane was coming they had enough notice to evacuate but this one seemed to come sudden and out of nowhere. It was already looking pretty bad outside and neither of them wanted to take the chance of leaving town.

Brian shrugged and flipped the TV back on with the remote that was still in his hand. Another warning was blaring across the screen but, this time it was for a tornado.

"A tornado?" Olivia asked, "I'm starting to believe this is a joke. We don't get tornadoes in Manhattan."

Brian shrugged, "Apparently we can and this says there's one in the area so grab the kids and the emergency bag and let's go to the basement."

Olivia reluctantly went into the girls' bedroom to help them carry their blankets down to the basement. They were lucky to have one in cases like this. Before joining them, Brian took one last look out of the window. He didn't see any tornadoes or anything of the sort but the wind had gotten visibly stronger and he wasn't going to take the chance.

"This will be fun," he mumbled as he joined the rest of his family in the basement. There was a mattress down there that had used to be Brian's but when he moved in with Olivia they decided to keep in just in case. Now Paige and Allison were occupying the mattress with their blankets draped across their laps.

"Why do we have to be down here?" Paige asked with her eyes big and worried.

"There's a big storm," Allison answered.

"Ali," Brian warned. Allison had a knack for scaring her sister, "now's not the time."

"I'm scared," Paige whimpered as tears filled her eyes.

"It'll be okay," Allison assured her, "right Dad?"

"Right."

Olivia made sure she checked their emergency back and that they had what they needed. They had perishable food items and plenty of bottles of water. They had batteries and extra flashlights and everything they could possibly need. It was a good thing Brian was a boy scout as a kid; even if Olivia did always tease him about it.

Sitting in the basement, you could hardly hear the storm stirring up outside. The winds were less harsh, almost inaudible. Olivia just hoped it passed soon and that the hurricane decided to die down or take a different course.

"Why don't we play a game?" Olivia asked in attempt to cheer her gloomy kids up. She had brought a deck of cards down with her and now was as good a time as any to play a few rounds of 'Go Fish.'

"I'm going to go upstairs and watch the weather for a bit," Brian whispered to Olivia, "see what's going on."

Olivia nodded and Brian could tell by the look on her face that she was worried. She was terrible at hiding it. "I'm sure everything's going to be fine," he assured as he pulled her into a hug, "don't worry."

"I can't help it," she sighed as she rested her head on his shoulder.

Brian gave her a gentle kiss before reluctantly pulling away from her touch and heading up the stairs to see what else mother nature was conjuring up.

Yes? No? Good start? Terrible start? You should be a doll and let me know. :) (There is tons of Bensidy still to come. Precious, precious, Bensidy...)
