Family

Chapter One


Eleven year old Evelyn Shepard sat on the bench in the Special Victims precinct. She swung her legs back and forth; she played thumb war with herself. Her shoulder length blond hair was in a small ponytail. Two loose strands fell into her worried green eyes. She had been waiting there for fifteen minutes for her uncle. She left school early to come down here. Evelyn fiddled with her long white sleeves of her shirt.

Elliot and Olivia talked to each other and walked by. They stopped when Elliot saw Evelyn.

"What is it?" Olivia asked looking where he was.

"That's my niece." Elliot quietly answered and walked over to her.

"Evelyn…" he said bending down to her level. "Why aren't you in school?"

She looked up at him before giving him a weak smile. "I needed to talk to you. I didn't know what else to do."

"What happened? Did someone hurt you?"

"Alison…" Evelyn was deciding weather or not to tell him what had happened.

"What about Alison? You can tell me Eve." Elliot softly said.

"She didn't want me to tell anyone but… she was raped."

The door busted open and in ran a 15 year old girl. She looked just like Evelyn except she had waist length dark brown hair in a bun. Her green eyes were also darker. She let out a relieved sigh when she saw Evelyn. Evelyn just stared at the ground.

"There you are kiddo." the girl smiled. "You had mom and me scared to death."

Elliot stood up and looked at Evelyn, then to the girl.

"Before you ask Uncle Elliot, I'm not in school because I'm sick. I only came here because Evelyn's school called saying she missed her last three classes." the girl explained.

"Alison… Evelyn told me you were raped." Elliot said.

Alison stared at Evelyn then at Elliot. "Don't know why she'd tell you that."

"If someone did, then tell me. I want to find the guy who did this."

"Nothing happened. Just dropped the subject."

"I can not just drop the subject. If someone did, you need to tell me so we can get this guy off the streets."

Alison scoffed and grabbed Evelyn's book bag from the floor. "Come on Eve… we're going home."

Evelyn silently obeyed and continued staring at the floor. She quickly left her enraged sister and worried uncle. Alison just shook her head before leaving after Evelyn.
