Law and Order: Special Victims Unit

Sickening

Chapter 10

Olivia heard a small noise in her sleep, it was getting increasing louder. She moved a tiny bit, realizing she was still lying on Elliot's chest.

"Sweetheart," Elliot's voice said, "Your phone is ringing."

Olivia realized that it was her ring tone, Lavinia. It was a month after they had chosen the name. So her belly had grown, a lot. She lifted her head off his chest and looked up to see her phone. She took it from him, and stated her last name.

"Benson," Olivia said

"Liv, I know you're on Maternity leave but do you think you can handle going out in the field? This is a sensitive case, and I'm sort of skeptic about sending the sex crimes newbie out there alone."

Olivia inhaled hoping her voice wouldn't sound groggy. "Yeah, why's it so sensitive though?"

"It's a child victim." Cragen said, "She went missing two days ago. Showed up this morning at a Mc Donald's. I don't know all the details."

"A Mc Donald's?" Olivia asked for clarity.

"Yep, 6th and Lexington." Cragen said

"Weird," Olivia stated, "So I'll meet the new detective there?"

"Yeah, her name is Kacy Gallo." Cragen informed her.

"Okay," Olivia said, rising out of bed and snapping the phone shut with two fingers.

"Where you going?" Elliot asked as she headed for the closet.

"Mc Donald's," Olivia said still thinking that was a bit amusing.

"Who are you meeting at Mc Donald's?" Elliot asked thinking that was a little weird.

"The new detective," Olivia said now in the closet, "The Captain wants me to makes sure she can handle it considering she's a newbie."

"You're going out in the field?" Elliot asked sitting up.

"Yep," Olivia said cheerfully, she hated being cooped up at a desk.

"Olivia, what about the baby?" Elliot asked

"El," Olivia said, her head appearing from behind the closet door, "It's just the taking the statement part."

"I know, but shit happens." Elliot said

Olivia walked up to the yellow tape that said "Police Personnel Only". There was a uniform standing to the side of it. He was there to make sure that only police went through. He looked at her pregnant belly and said, "Ma'am, this room is closed to Police Personnel only."

Olivia gave him a look and dug around in her giant coat for her badge. She found it and showed it to him. He muttered an apology and gestured for her to go through. She looked at the yellow tape that was about belly high and decided that she couldn't bend over that far.

She untapped it, which was technically the officers job but she did it anyways. She walked through and re-taped it. She saw that they were in the playroom of Mc Donald's. She walked up to the small group, "Is the victim up there?" she asked

"And you are?" A male uniform, who was kind of overweight asked.

"Olivia Benson, Special Victims Unit." She stated.

"Shouldn't you be on a desk?" He asked

"We're short handed." She explained, wondering why Munch or Fin weren't the ones here.

"She's up there, seven years old, scared to death of men. I sent my partner up there and she started screaming." He told her.

There was a little girl standing there with her mother, with the officer.

"My captain said she had been missing, how'd you guys figure that she was the missing girl?" Olivia asked

"Children were playing up there and this little girl." He said pointing to the girl holding her mother's hand. "Told her mother that she saw her on the television this morning, they were watching a national news program. She went missing from New Jersey, two days ago." He explained.

Olivia looked up at the jungle gym. There was enclosed tubes all the way up to a landing, which was also enclosed. They were small, only big enough for skinny adults and children. The only tube to get up there slanted immensely.

"Yeah, don't think I can make that."

"I can," said a voice behind her.

Olivia turned around and saw a woman who was in her late twenties. She was skinny, definitely could make it up there. She was pretty too. She had thick brown hair that was currently up in a ponytail. Darker colored eyes, probably hazel. She was wearing casual clothing. Which was a tight black t-shirt with jeans, and black skating shoes.

"You must be Kacy Gallo." Olivia said

"Yes, you must be…" she paused to let out a small giggle, "Pregnant? Please to say yes."

Olivia smiled and nodded, "Yes."

"Thank god, I just didn't call someone fat." Kacy said, "No offense but aren't you supposed to be on a desk."

"My captain sent me here to make sure you don't screw up. So, I'm going to warm you, this child had probably been through a lot in the last two days. Be gentle, and please don't make me drag my pregnant…butt up the tube to do it right." Olivia said, she knew it was harsh, but it was Special Victims, one mistake could cause a victim not to chose to make a statement at all.

"I have a little experience with this," Kacy said

"How so?"

"I have volunteered a little at the national abuse hotline." She said

That made her really qualified. Olivia wondered why Cragen hadn't told her this. Olivia said, "Well then, by all means."

The new girl started up the tube as Olivia waited below.

She reached the top and spotted the girl's blanket sticking out behind a corner. She crawled over to the small bubble where you could look out over the playroom. Kacy looked around the corner and smiled at the girl.

"Hey, can I sit here?" Kacy asked gesturing to a spot on the other side of the bubble.

The girl shrugged and Kacy took that as a yes. She climbed into the plastic bubble across from the girl.

"I heard that your mommy and daddy couldn't find you for a couple of days." Kacy said

She nodded.

"You know that whatever happened to you isn't your fault." Kacy stated.

The little girl nodded, "Rudy told me that I couldn't tell you what happened, he told me that I'd die."

"Who's Rudy?" Kacy asked with a sweet tone.

"I don't know but he toll me I could call him that." She said quietly.

"Well, you know what, why don't we go down the slide and we'll talk about Rudy. I promise I won't let anything happen to you, and you only have to talk as much as you want." Kacy said

"Okay, I am a little hungry." She stated still being a little shy.

Kacy crawled towards the slide looking back to make sure the little girl was following. She got to the slide and said, "Why don't you go first, my friend is down there. She'll catch you, she's a nice pregnant lady."

"Okay," she said

"She's coming down." Kacy said in a raised voice.

The girl went down, and then Kacy did. As she came out into the light she heard Olivia say, "Nice work."

Kacy smiled and nodded, standing up and dusting off her pants. "Thanks."

Olivia walked into Elliot's apartment later that night. She dropped her keys on the counter as Elliot looked over the counter, he smiled.

"Hey sweetie, how was work?" He asked

"Well, our new detective is qualified." Olivia said walking around the counter to the bar.

"That's good, is he nice?" Elliot asked

"He…is a she." Olivia said, "And she's nice."

"That is good," Elliot said wiping the counter off, "I sense there is more though."

"She's good, really good. She convinced a kid victim to come out of a jungle gym in like not even five minutes. She even volunteered on the national abuse line."

"So what she's experienced," Elliot said, then laughed about his next thought, "What you afraid she's going to take your place."

"Yeah, a little." Olivia said

"Is that baby blocking the oxygen to your brain?" Elliot asked

"Elliot, there are going to be two fill-ins if they are both better detectives than I am, it is possible that they could take my place." Olivia said

Elliot let out a small chuckle, "That's not going to happen. If they were going to drop anyone it would've been me, and I'm already out of the running."

Olivia laughed knowing that wasn't true.

Keep the reviews coming, I love em!
