Thank you for all the follows and reviews! I'm so excited to continue to write this story! It will be getting very interesting in these next few chapters (:

MERCY GENERAL HOSPITAL

10:15 AM WEDNESDAY OCTOBER 11TH

"Okay Grace, can you tell me what happened?" Said Olivia

The girls eyes filled up as a silent tear fell down her cheek.

"It's okay Grace you can tell us, we are here to help you" Amanda said reassuring the girl that it was okay to talk.

"I was walking home from my friends house last night around 6 and I stopped at the cafe to get something to eat and when I left I walked to the crosswalk on the corner of 34th but before I could cross he grabbed my arm and pulled me into the alley" Grace said with soft sobs.

"He? Did you get a good look at him?" Amanda said knowing not to push her too hard.

"No, it was dark and he had a black mask on." She said.

"Okay what happened next" asked Olivia.

"I told him that I would give him whatever he wanted as long as he didn't hurt me." She said with tears rolling down her face. "But he told me that he didn't want my money and that's when he pushed me against the wall, I tried to get away but he was so much stronger than I was" she said. "And then he said that a pretty girl like shouldn't walk around the city so late at night" she sobbed.

The detectives let her finish without interruption.

"He started to touch me and I told him to stop but he went and started unbuttoning my pants I tried to hit him but his hand went for my neck so I bit him but he pushed me to the ground" she said still crying.

"That's when he raped me" she said the tear slowly subsiding.

Silence loomed over the room as the young girl finished telling the detectives her story.

"Is there anything that you remember about the man, anything at all?" Olivia asked

"No, it was too dark" Grace said as she looked up at Olivia with a big pair of sad brown eyes.

That is when she felt it. The same hurt the same pain the same shattered feeling she felt after her four days she spent with Lewis. It had been almost eight months since the incident, it took a lot of healing to get back to where she was.

"Okay Grace, does your mom know that you are here." Amanda asked.

"Are you joking?" She said with a furrowed brow, "she doesn't care about me." The girl said "I don't think I have ever seen her sober, the woman lives off of alcohol." She said in a saddened tone. "Please don't make me go back there" she looked up at Olivia with tears back in her eyes when she started to sob.

Olivia stood up, sat on the side of her bed and opened her arms to the girl. Grace immediately clung to Olivia yearning for comfort knowing that she was safe.

"Shhh" she said in a comforting tone, "I will not make you go back there. I promise." She said

Within 30 minutes Olivia had contacted social services and had talked to a social worker. Olivia explained the circumstances to the worker.

"She is very fragile right now and I don't think that a foster home is the best place for healing, so I was wondering if it was okay with you if she could stay with me, at least for the time being" Olivia explained.

"I don't usually allow it but considering the circumstances I would have to agree with you" the worker stated "so for the time being I will allow her to stay with you" he said, "but I will be doing weekly visits to make sure everything is okay."

"Oh yes I understand, thank you so much" she said as she hung up the phone.

Olivia walked back into the room and sat back down next to Grace. "I talked to the social worker and he agreed that a state home wasn't a good idea for you right now so he talked to his boss and cleared you to stay with me" she said with a smile. "Which means that we have to bring your mother in and talk to her."

"Okay but what if she wants to talk to me?" Grace asked

"Then we will let you go in there but we won't make you do anything you don't want to do" Olivia said.

"Well it's worth a shot." Grace said with a smile as she hugged Olivia.

After Grace had fallen back asleep Olivia and Amanda stepped outside her room so they didn't disturb her.

"I'll call Fin and have him and Amaro start doing some research on Grace's mother, go back down to the precinct and call me if you find anything, I will stay here and watch over her until the doctors decide that she is strong enough to be discharged."

"Sounds good sarge, call if you need anything" Amanda said as she left the hospital.

SVU SQUADROOM

11:45 AM OCTOBER 11TH

Back at the squadroom the team continued to try and find anything they could on Grace's mother.

"Uh Amanda" Nick said with a large amount of concern in his voice, "I think you need to come look at this."

And that's where it ends. I'm think after the next chapter I a going to get started on the Lewis storyline. I just want to make sure it is good and everything flows together as it should. And don't forget REVIEW REVIEW REVIEW! (:
