Title: Fallin' In Love

Author: Ebony-Jayne

Notes: Mollie's unpredictable, unstable behaviour worsens…Had to do it. I just had to do it.

For the record the biting thing was inspired by a nasty little boy I babysat last month. I will never babysit him again needless to say!

Chapter Five: More Trouble

"Livia? 'Livia?" the soft little voice penetrated Olivia's dream. She rolled toward the sound and winced as she leaned on her bandaged arm.

"What's wrong Mollie?" she asked groggily.

"I wet the bed," Mollie announced.

"Ew," Olivia groaned. "Ok, ok I'm up," she dragged herself off to bed and into Mollie's room. She grimaced as she walked in, the room smelled like pee. She quickly changed the bed, mentally thanking Elliot for the plastic mattress cover he had told her would be in her best interest to buy and Casey for giving her several pairs of pajamas her five-year-old niece had just out grown. Then she cleaned Mollie up and went to put her back into bed.

"Can I sleep in your bed with you 'Livia?" Mollie asked.

"As long as you don't pee again," Olivia mumbled. "I suppose," she told Mollie. She picked Mollie up and carried her into her room, climbing into bed with her. Mollie snuggled into her and went to sleep, her fingers in her mouth and Toby Rabbit under her arm. Olivia went to sleep soon after.

"Where are we going 'Livia?" Mollie asked for the third time from her child seat in the back of Olivia's car.

"We are going to my work so you can meet my other friends and I can do a little bit of paperwork," Olivia explained in exasperation.

"Oh. Ok. What are your friend's names?" Mollie asked.

"Munch and Fin and Casey and Captain Cragen," Olivia told her. They arrived at the precinct and Olivia parked her car. She climbed out and opened Mollie's door. She grabbed Mollie's backpack and made sure the little girl had Toby Rabbit and then locked the car. "Ok lets go," Olivia grinned.

"Ok. Will you carry me 'Livia?" Mollie asked, holding out her little arms.

"All right," Olivia picked Mollie up and sat her on her hip. Then she walked into the building. In the elevator Mollie touched Olivia's bandaged arm.

"Sorry 'Livia," she mumbled softly.

"That's ok. Just don't do it again ok?" Olivia kissed the top of Mollie's head.

"Hey guys," Olivia called out as she entered the room.

"Hey Liv," Elliot walked up. "Hiya Mollie."

"Hi Elliot," Mollie held out her arms and Elliot lifted her out of Olivia's arms.

"Hey El," Olivia smiled. She nearly leaped out of her skin when a pair of hands squeezed her sides. "Jesus Christ!" she whipped around to see who it was. "CASEY!" Casey was trying not to laugh.

"Sorry," she grinned in apology.

"Are you 'Livia's friend?" Mollie walked over to Olivia and was peering around her leg at Casey.

"Yeah," Casey crouched down so that she was at eye level with Mollie. "I'm Casey Novak," she smiled.

"Casey. I'm Mollie S-," Mollie stopped and corrected herself. "Mollie Benson," she told Casey.

"Hi Mollie," Casey smiled again.

Olivia took Mollie around introducing her to Munch and Fin and Melinda Warner who had showed up to see Mollie too. Then she took her into Cragen's office.

"Hey. Brought someone to say hello," Olivia told him. George Huang was in his office too. "Mollie this is George and Captain Cragen. Guys this is Mollie."

"Hi Mollie. I have to go. See you guys later," Huang told them.

"Hello Mollie," Cragen held out his arms to Mollie and she hesitated a moment before holding out her own arms so he could take her off Olivia. He sat down in his chair and sat Mollie on the desk in front of him. "I think that you can call me Uncle Don," he told her. Elliot's kids had always called him that.

"Uncle Don. OK," Mollie replied.

Later that night Mollie's behaviour deteriorated again. She had a tantrum when she didn't want to wear the pajama's that Olivia had grabbed for her.

"I WANT THE OTHER ONES!" she yelled. She screamed, throwing herself on the floor. She started to thump her arms and legs on the ground while screaming in bursts. Olivia didn't know what to do so she just sat down and thought she'd wait it out. Mollie continued to scream and thrash. After a while she stopped, just laying face down on the floor. Olivia went to pick her up. As soon as she did Mollie sank her little teeth into Olivia's un-bandaged arm. Then she started kicking and hitting her as she bit harder and again and again. It hurt like hell but Olivia held on until she managed to get Mollie into her room. Then she put her in the room and shut the door. "LET ME OUT! 'LIVIA! LET ME OUT. I HATE YOU! I HATE YOU!" Mollie screamed and yelled and sobbed hysterically. Then Olivia heard banging and thumping and Mollie began to scream in bursts again. "I WANT OUT! LET ME OUT! I HATE YOU! I HATE YOU!" soon Olivia could hear sobbing and a dull rhythmic thumping from inside the bedroom. She opened the door and went in. she was shocked at what she saw. Mollie was only wearing her panties as Olivia had never got her pajamas on her. She had wet her pants, and the banging had apparently been her hitting and kicking the walls. Her little hands and feet were bruised and she had a huge bruise on her forehead where she was sitting and banging her head against the wall. She seemed completely out of it. Her nose was running and her cheeks were stained with tears. There was blood around her mouth which Olivia quickly deduced was hers from when Mollie had bitten her arm. She had no idea why Mollie was behaving like this. She decided that all she could do tonight was get Mollie into bed. She'd talk to Sally at the group home in the morning.
