Olivia's POV ] "Detective I have some good news." I looked up.
"What?"
"We were able to recover a semen sample. DNA is probable."
"What about STD's?" I asked. I was so scared for Lizzy and sorrowful for Kathleen.
"HIV negative"
"Thank you." I went in and told Lizzy she was healthy and had helped a lot. Then I went into Kathleen's room.
"How are you?" I asked.
"Terrible, how's Lizzy?"
"Lizzy is a hero. She didn't take a shower so we have DNA." I meant it to. Now I just had to tell Kathleen that she was dyeing. "Um Kathleen..."
"Yeah?"
"Well while Lizzy didn't receive any STD's..." I broke off again. I couldn't do this. She was so young so full of life.
"Olivia what is it?"
"You're HIV positive." The words stumbled out. I realized that I had just told her she was going to die. Her life had been stolen by a certain Victor Bradfield. I told her I had to call her father and I knew I did. Kathleen's POV HIV positive! Theses words rang in my head. I barely heard Olivia as she left to call my dad. I am 16 and am going to die! As I lay back thinking, rationalization came back to. I realized that everyone dies at some point. Here I knew I was going to die, but then if I thought about it I was dyeing last week, last month. I understood I could it was possible I could die tomorrow. I had to live. Not mortally. My body was ruined. He killed it with his desires. However my spirit is not to be killed so easily. I climbed out of bed and walked down to Lizzy's room. "Lizzy?" "Kathleen! You're my hero. Olivia was just here she said I was healthy. I'm still scared but I fell stronger now, more courageous." A tearful smile passed my lips. She was so eager, so full of life, and so young. She has so much to offer the world and I knew I wouldn't be able to see it. "Kathleen, what's wrong." She asked the question so innocently as little child who had been so brave.
"Lizzy you're healthy." I began grabbing her hand. "However I have HIV. Lizzy I don't want you to be sorry for me but you need to know that I'm dyeing."
"Dyeing?"
"Lizzy I don't know how long I'll have here. I want to do as much good as I can with what time I have left, but I need help ok."
"Ok."
"I'm going to ask Dickie to help to."
"Good idea, he always wants to help." I hugged her.
"I love you. Remember tomorrow is the first day of the rest of our lives."
"I love you to Kathleen." Tears were apparent on her face. I wiped them away and started back to my room. My footsteps echoing in the halls. My heart was considerably lighter.
Olivia's POV I left and pulled out my cell phone in the hall. I dialed the number I knew by heart. I hoped he wouldn't answer. We had often talked about what it would be like to be on the receiving end of these calls. He had told me it was a parent's worst nightmare times ten. "Welcome to the nightmare El." I thought. He answered on the tenth ring.
"Stabler"
"Elliot it's me Olivia."
"Olivia you know I have court today. So what's up that you're making Judge Wright wait?" He was oblivious to the news I carried.
"El I don't want to do this but..."
"But what?" Worry was creeping into his voice now. This was driving me crazy. I couldn't do this to El my partner for years. I slipped into formal mode. I just hoped I could give this news to Detective Stabler.
"Detective your two daughters have been raped. Kathleen had apparently been going through sexual trauma for the past five months. She is HIV positive. Lizzy was raped once, last night. DNA was recovered during her examination and she is HIV negative.
