Prompt: Kat gets sick and Olivia takes care of her.

Kat's age: 7

Olivia Benson sighed as she poured herself some coffee on her favorite cup. The squad had work on a very hard case for two weeks but finally they caught the perp yesterday. She could finally relax and have a great Saturday with her daughter. Speaking of her daughter, the detective hasn't heard or seen the seven year old. She found it quiet odd since the small girl like to watch her morning cartoon. Frowning, she gently put her coffee mug on the counter and walked out of the small kitchen.

"Kat?" Olivia asked as she made her way to her daughter's room. She knocked on the close door and said, "Sweetheart, are you awake?"

A small moan was heard and the detective opened the door. Her eyes glanced to the bed and noticed a lump under the covers. Olivia padded to the bed and sat near to where her daughter was hiding under the covers. She quietly pulled them off and noticed her daughter was slightly shaking as she was curled in a tight ball with her eyes shut close.

"Honey? What's wrong?"

Kat slowly opened one of her eyes and looked up at her mother. "I'm cold." Her voice sounded stuff.

"You're cold?" Olivia asked with a tinge of concern in her voice. She placed the back of her hand in Kat's forehead and grimaced when she felt it a bit too warm for her comfort. "I think you have the flu, sweetheart."

The small dark haired girl closed her eyes again and sniffed a bit, "I hurt all over."

"Come on lets go."

"Where?"

"To the kitchen."

"Not hungry," mumbled Kat.

"I know but we have to get some food in you," Olivia stood up. She slightly bent down and placed her hands under Kat's arms.

The smallest Benson opened her eyes again as her mother lifted her up. She rested her head close to her mother's neck as her arms hanged over her mother's shoulders. She felt her mother walking and winced slightly when she felt her body hurt.

" 'M cold," murmured Kat slightly shivering.

"I know but first you need to eat."

Kat scrunched her nose. She didn't feel like eating. All she wanted to do was sleep in her bed. She opened her eyes when she felt her mother putting her down. She sighed in content when she felt the warmness of the couch. Her mother left for a little while and came back with her favorite blanket. Olivia loosely wrapped the blanket around her daughter and once she checked that Kat was comfortable, she turned on the TV and went to the kitchen to prepare some oatmeal.

As she prepared Kat's oatmeal, Olivia glanced at her daughter. The detective could hear the cartoons but Kat wasn't laughing like she usually does. The child would constantly sniffed and clutch the blanket closer to herself. Once the oatmeal was done she grabbed a spoon and walked out of the kitchen to the living room.

"Here you go," Olivia sat next to her daughter. She had a spoonful of oatmeal and was about to feed Kat when the little girl moved her head away. "Come on honey you have to eat. You will feel better if you have food on your stomach."

Kat shook her head, "Don't like oatmeal."

"It will be good for you."

"No," Kat glared at her mother.

"Please sweetheart?"

"No!"

"Kathryn Benson, you will eat this oatmeal right now," Olivia growled. The spoon was hovering near the young Benson's face.

After staring at her mother for a minute, Kat sighed and reluctantly opened her mouth. Her nose scrunched when she felt the food in her mouth. She swallowed and made gag noises. "That's yucky!"

Olivia chuckled and continued to feed her daughter until the bowl was halfway gone. The detective washed the bowl and headed to the bathroom. She sighed heavily knowing that it would be a difficult task for Kat to take some medicine. Quickly grabbing the medicine bottle and walked out of the bathroom.

As she made her way to the kitchen to grab a spoon her eyes flicked to her daughter. Luckily the dark haired girl was playing quietly with her stuffed giraffe. Hearing her mother's footsteps coming closer, Kat looked up and smiled slightly. She glanced down and her eyes widen when she saw the purple medicine bottle in the detective's hand.

"No medicine mommy!" Kat shook her head so fast that Olivia thought it would fall off.

"You need to drink this to make you better," Olivia said patiently as she dripped some of the purple liquid in the spoon. She moved the spoon closer to Kat and the child pressed her lips tightly together. "Open up."

Kat again shook her head.

The detective sighed. "It's one spoonful."

The young Benson narrowed her eyes before she said, "You take some."

"Me? I'm not the one who is sick."

"Then I won't," Kat huffed and crossed her arms in front of her chest.

"Ok then," Olivia took the spoonful of medicine.

The detective tried not to grimace but Kat saw her reaction. Before Olivia could stop her, Kat bolted from the couch and ran to her room.

"Young lady you will drink this medicine whether you like it or not!" Olivia quickly walked to the girl's room. She opened the door and saw her daughter clutching her pillow tightly. "It's your turn."

"You didn't like it," Kat shakily said as her mother sat next to her and began to fill the spoon with the nasty medicine.

"You're right. I didn't," Olivia said, "But you will be able to sleep better at night if you drink it."

Kat's eyes glanced up at her mother and saw the gently look that she was giving her. Sighing, the little girl opened her mouth. The moment that the medicine touched her mouth she wanted it to spit it out but the look that her mother was giving her made her think twice. She shuddered when she swallowed the medicine. It didn't take long for Kat to fall asleep soon after she took her bath.


Olivia woke up with her head throbbing. Her body ache and she felt her nose stuffed. She groaned when she realized that now she had the flu. She tried going back to sleep but the nasty headache didn't let her. With a huff she threw the covers off of her and walked out of her room. She was surprised to see the Kat playing with her stuff animals in the living room.

"Mom, you awake!" Kat grinned at her. She then frowned when she noticed her mother. "What's wrong?"

"Mommy caught the flu," Olivia sighed as she sat down on the couch.

With a determine look on her face, Kat sat next to her mother and gently placed her hand on her the detective's forehead. "You're warm."

Olivia hummed as she closed her eyes. Kat jumped off the couch and ran to the bathroom. The detective opened her eyes and curiously looked back to where the bathroom was when she heard some noises that Kat was making.

"What do you think you are doing?"

"Medicine!"

"Medicine?" Olivia was about to stand up when a small dark haired figure emerged from the bathroom. Kat put the medicine bottle on the coffee table and ran to the kitchen. As the small child was finding a spoon the detective noticed that it was the same medicine that she gave Kat.

"You need medicine to feel better," Kat patted towards her mother while she clutched a spoon.

Olivia watched her daughter in amusement as the child stuck her tongue out when she poured a bit of the purple liquid on the spoon. When Kat moved the spoon closer to the detective's face, Olivia opened her mouth and swallowed the medicine.

"Now you will get better," Kat smiled at her mother.

"Yes I will," Olivia gently smiled at her daughter.

Kat grinned and went to play with her stuff animals in the armchair while Olivia turned on the TV to watch some morning news.

Hope you all enjoy it and sorry for the late post.

You guys can also request a one shot if you guys want. I will continue to update weekly.
