Chapter 7

Olivia's Point of View

"Yeah it's faint but there." I told Fin as I breathed a sigh of relief.

"Bus shouldn't be long." Fin said as he crouched down beside me.

"Charlie you have to wake up honey." I whispered as I gently stroked her cheek.

She didn't move, she didn't even flinch, as she lay unconscious on the floor struggling to breath.

The minutes that it took the bus to arrived felt like hours and when they finally bundled Charlotte into the back of the ambulance I was like a robot. I wasn't talking, I don't even think I was breathing properly all I was concerned about was getting Charlotte to wake up.

"Liv we will be there as soon as we have Mary locked up." Fin assured me.

"No I need you guys to keep looking for the husband and Jared." I told him.

"Liv….." Fin trailed off.

"Please." I begged.

He nodded in response and seconds later the ambulance door closed and we sped off towards the hospital. It was the longest ride of my life as I watched the paramedic try to wake my unconscious daughter.

"What's wrong with her?" I questioned.

However she was to busy working with Charlotte to even hear me. When we finally reached the hospital Charlotte was whisked awake and I was left to pace the ward alone.

Amaro's Point of View

Liv had left with Charlotte to go to the hospital. It was our responsibility to make sure the woman who hurt Charlotte was taken care off. As soon as Liv was gone we escorted Mary Clarke back to the station where the real fun began. Fin and myself started the process of questioning.

"So Mrs Clarke, what exactly happened in the house?" I began.

"I don't know what you're talking about." She hissed.

"Really, so the unconscious girl upstairs you know nothing about that?" Fin replied.

"Ok how about we go back to 15 years ago when yourself and your husband kidnapped Aria Benson. Does that sound familiar to you?" Fin questioned.

Mary put her head on the table.

"Her name is Charlotte." She snapped.

"Oh so you do know her?" I pressed.

"No I don't know this Aria Benson, the girl upstairs is my daughter!" Mary yelled.

Fin shared a look of confusion with me and gestured for me to follow him out.

"Think it's an act?" Rollins who had been watching from outside asked.

"Could be, plead insanity don't get done for kidnapping." I sighed.

Fin nodded in agreement as he seemed to study Mary. She was sitting in the same position with a blank expression on her face.

"We need to find the husband Frank is it? Maybe he will have more to say." Fin stated.

"I agree but I think one of us needs to be with Benson. Rollins how about you go see how she's doing?" I suggested.

Rollins nodded and headed off.

"Ok let's get back in there." Fin said as soon as Rollins was gone.

Olivia's point of View

I was in the waiting room an hour when a familiar face appeared bearing coffee.

"Thought you would need this." Rollins smiled as she handed it to me.

"Thanks." I mumbled.

"Hear anything?" She asked as I took a sip of the much-needed coffee.

"No." I sighed.

Silence fell as we sat and waited, it wasn't until Rollins phone rang that I turned to look at her again.

"Fin." She told me.

"Hello?" She answered.

"What do you mean?" She replied to whatever he said.

"We haven't heard anything. Fin I don't think that's good idea." Rollins continued.

"What's up?" I asked.

"Fin I will call you back." Rollins said as she ended the call.

"Rollins?" I pressed.

"Mary Clarke…..well she wont talk to the guys anymore." Rollins told me.

"She only wants to talk to you." She added.

I couldn't believe what I was hearing. The woman who took my daughter from me and put her in the hospital now wanted to talk to me alone.

"What's she playing at?" I hissed.

Rollins gave me an apologetic look.

"Sarg you don't have to deal with this now. You have a lot going on so just focus on Charlotte for now. Clarke can wait." She said.

"Your right Amanda thanks." I replied giving her a small smile.

"I'm going to go call Fin back. You ok?" She smiled.

I nodded in response as she got up and left. While she was gone the doctor finally came to give me an update on Charlotte.

"Olivia Benson?" She asked.

"That's me." I confirmed.

"Your daughter is looking for you." She smiled.

Relief washed over me as happy tears began to fall.

"She's ok?" I whispered.

"Yes, she was very lucky. Another few minutes and she could have died. Whoever did this used a strong poison." She told me.

"Poison?" I gasped.

"Yes the person who did this wanted to kill Charlotte or so it appears." The doctor told me.

I could feel anger burn inside me but I managed to contain it. My daughter needed me and I had to be there for her before anything else. Like Rollins said the Clarke's could wait. Charlotte couldn't. I took a few seconds to compose myself before entering her room. When I did she was lying in the bed and looked more like a child than she had in the past few days of knowing her.

"Mom?" She whispered when she saw me.

I swear my heart skipped a beat when she called me mom. All I could do was nod as I walked quickly over and wrapped my arms around her.

"You scared me kid." I sniffed as more tears ran down my cheeks.

"Sorry." She mumbled.

"Hey you have nothing to apologize for. This was all the Clarke's doing, I'm just glad we got to you on time." I smiled as I held her close.

"Thanks for saving me." She whispered into my shoulder.

"I love you mom." She added.

"Love you to Aria." I replied.

"Mom?" She said suddenly.

"Yeah?" I asked concerned.

"Can you call me Aria from now on? I mean can I go back to being the real me?" Aria questioned.

"Of course you can sweetie." I laughed.

"Good cause I'm done being a Clarke." She hissed.

I nodded in agreement, silently making the vow to make the Clarke's pay for hurting my daughter.

Until next time ;-)
