Saving Bradley (An SVU Fanfiction)

Moving Out

Olivia runs behind her, opening the door and gasping for much needed air.

"What the hell do you mean sex?!", Olivia yells.

"I mean sex! Did you forget what that word is?! I don't want to talk about this with you and you can't make me!", Bradley fires back. Olivia takes a deep breath before responding.

"You can't have sex, Bradley. You're too young, do you understand the consequences?"

"I've been having sex since I was twelve! You're not allowed to tell me I'm 'too young'!"

"That was rape, not sex and I am so sorry that you had to go through that, baby, but sex is never the outlet for our problems.", she tells her. "Sex is something you do with the person you love, you do that with someone you want to be with for the rest of your life, that person that makes you feel good all the time; not someone that makes you feel good for a little while."

"So you're telling me that you've never had sex with someone other than dad? Or someone who you didn't want to be with? You've never had a one night stand or got too drunk and went home with some guy you just met?", she questions. "You're such a hypocrite!"

"It doesn't matter what I've done-"

"Doesn't it?"

"No. We aren't talking about me, we're talking about you."

"And if I don't want to talk about me?", Olivia sighs and steps back. "Just go away..", Olivia walks to the door.

"We aren't done talking about this, young lady."

"Mom..?", Bradley's voice shakes. Olivia turns around and looks at her with one hand on her hip and her weight shifted to that side. "Are you mad at me?"

"I'm very disappointed in you."

"I know, but are you mad?", there was a long pause. "Just forget it. I was right about you and dad and Alex and that damn baby-"

"Bradley, watch your mouth!"

"ALL I DID WAS HAVE SEX, OKAY?! Quit being such a neurotic controlling bitch and quit medaling in my business!", Olivia slapped her across the face.

"Don't you dare raise your voice with me like that again, understood? When you move out, you can make your own choices, but until then, you live under my roof, my rules and you will not, under any circumstances, ever speak to me that way! Are we clear?!"

"Crystal."

(4 years later)

"Mom, its just a few blocks away, and I won't be alone. I have a roommate, remember?"

Bradley is nineteen years old, now. She's moving out, getting a place of her own, with a roommate, of course. She's been waiting since she was fifteen to move out, and now she finally is! She's going to miss her brother and sister to death, but they'll all be okay. The hardest part is leaving her mom. Olivia and Bradley are one in the same, inseparable at times; and Nick is just over protective, one thing Bradley hated, but now wishes she could have him there with her all the time.

"Yes, I remember, but you're still my baby.."

"And you've got two more to keep you busy. Trust me, you won't miss me that much.", Bradley assures her. Alex and Laney ran up to her.

"Pwease don't go, sissy!", Alex cried. "I miss you too much."

"Yeah, Baddy, don't go!", Laney agrees. Alex and Laney always called her 'Baddy'. Alex couldn't pronounce it, and Laney just called her that because her brother did.

"Sissy won't be far and we can visit all the time, okay? I promise!", she tried to sound positive. She gave both her siblings hugs and kisses. She turned around and came face to face with Nick.

"I'm gonna miss you so much, baby girl!", Nick gave her a hug that seemed to last for forever and topped it off with a kiss on the forehead.

"I'm gonna miss you, too, daddy.", she started tearing up and pulled away. "Mom?"

"Come here.", Olivia pulled her into a hug. This was so much easier before all of the 'good-byes'. "Stay safe. I know its not that far, but still. You can always come home anytime you want to, okay?"

"I know, momma.", Liv rubbed her back and kissed her cheek. "I um..I'm gonna go ahead and get going.", she sniffles. "I love you guys!", she grabbed her last bag and left. That's the hardest thing she's ever done.

A/N

I know that its short, but I wasn't sure how to do this and I feel like I haven't posted in forever! So tell me, should I continue this book, make another about Bradley's life now that she left home, should she come back home? I don't know. I have this really good idea, so I think that I might continue this for the next few chapters and then do another book? Thoughts? Opinions? Drop 'em in the comments.😊😘
