Intoxicated

The whole topic of EO I believe is highly overused and other pairings need to be shown no matter what type of sexual orientation.

italics' represents thoughts

Olivia is finally opening up and talking about her mother's drinking problem. Casey is there to support her and a relationship occurs. Both women want more than friendship from each other, and it finally happens. How the end of the episode "Intoxicated", in my eyes, should have ended.

Olivia has 2001 hairstyle

Casey has her famous long red hair(NOT short)

'Oh my God...' Casey thought as Olivia opened up and talked about her mother's drinking problem. 'I had no idea it was that bad', Casey silenty told herself.

When Olivia finished, Casey scooted her barstool towards Olivia more and gently wrapped the beautiful brown-eyed beauty in a much-needed hug. "You can always talk to me about anything. I'll always be here for you, emotionally and physically," Casey assured the sob-wrecked Olivia. Olivia looked up from Casey's chest and mouthed a 'thank you' while trying to keep her full lips from trembling any more. Casey offered her a smile and changed the subject, "Want to spend the night at my apartment? That way we can talk and hang out."

"Absolutely!" Olivia said while nodding her head fervently with a bright smile on her tear-streaked face. Smiling at Olivia's eagerness, Casey took Olivia's hand and led her to the exit. Walking in step with each other they hailed a cab, not letting go of each other's hand. They stopped by Olivia's apartment so she could run in and get some clothes. When they got inside Casey's apartment, Olivia looked at the shorter woman with a smile on her face, "Finally, I get to hang out with my favorite person...alone," Olivia said.

"I'm excited about hanging out with you, too."

"I have one question though, where do I change?"

"You can either change in my bedroom or the bathroom, or here if you like," Casey told Olivia, hoping for a smile on Liv's beautiful face. "Ok, I choose the bedroom," Olivia replied with a shy smile. Olivia walked out of the bedroom dressed in a tight black tank top and black silk pajama pants. Casey couldn't help but stare at Olivia's beautiful curved body. Olivia smiled when Casey stifled a gasp. Wow! Liv has a really great body. 'She has nice curves and everything, while I have this huge butt I can't seem to get rid of.' "So, Miss Novak, are you going to stand there and stare at me or are you going to change into something a little more...comfortable?" Olivia asked Casey seductively. "Oh, I defintely choose comfortable," Casey replied while closing the door to her bedroom.

Casey walked out sensually in a dark blood-red tank top and matching pajama pants. 'Oh my god. She's so beautiful. I wish I could tell her how I feel. I just don't want her to freak out and stop being my friend. I can't lose her, so I just won't tell her. It'll hurt so much to keep this secret any longer, but I have to if I want to see her again.' Olivia willed herself. Casey sensed the hesitant look on Olivia's face and asked her, "What's wrong, Liv?"

"Nothing...just a lot of stuff going through my mind at the moment."

"Let's go sit on the couch and talk," Casey told Olivia. Casey grabbed Olivia's hand and led her to the couch where she sat close to the brown-haired woman.

"What's on your mind, Liv?" Olivia looked away, embarrassed.

Olivia said nothing. Tears brimmed her eyes as she looked back at Casey. Casey pulled Olivia into a hug for the second time that night and began to rub her back gently in a circular motion. Olivia continued to sob into Casey's shoulder as Casey held her tightly. They stayed there on the couch for a good ten minutes before Olivia's sobs gradually stopped. Olivia looked up from Casey's wet shoulder and gave her a I'm-sorry-I-just-broke-down smile. Casey knew that Olivia was going to apologize for crying on her shoulder, so she took Olivia's hand and assured her it was alright. "That's what I'm here for, honey." Casey softly assured Olivia.

Honey? I can get used to that everyday', Olivia thought to herself.

Casey yawned which made Olivia yawn right after her. Both women laughed, the superstition running through their minds. "Would you like to lay down on the bed with me? I have something important to tell you that involves both of us," Casey asked Olivia. Olivia replied, with a confused look on her face, "Sure, let's go."

Casey got up and Olivia followed her into the bedroom. Casey lifted the covers back to let Liv underneath. Olivia crawled into the bed and covered them both up to their waists. She turned to face Casey. "Okay, so what was the important thing you wanted to talk about?" Olivia asked Casey, hoping the red head felt the same way.

"I...I d-don't know how to tell you this, but..." Casey said, her voice slightly breaking with sobs. Olivia pulled Casey close to her as she played with Casey's long red hair, trying to make her feel as comfortable as possible. "Sweetie, it's alright. Just tell me, I'm always here for you no matter what, Case," Olivia assured her best friend. 'God, I love how my name sounds coming from Olivia's mouth. No one ever calls me Case, but I like it.'

Casey looked up at Olivia with a hesitant look on her face. "I'm falling for you, honey. Everyday you give me another reason to love you and I can't keep it a secret anymore. I wanted to tell you a long time ago but I thought you might not want to be around me if I did tell you, and I couldn't live with you not in my life. Even if you want to stay friends it would be better than us being apart. I couldn't live if you wasn't in my life at least somehow."

Olivia didn't answer, but instead leaned forward and captured Casey's full, soft lips over and over again in a steamy first kiss. Casey leaned into Olivia's body, closing the empty space that was between them. They held onto each other for five minutes before pulling their kissed, swollen lips apart, both of their chests heaving heavily. "Damn, Liv. That was..." Casey said trying to catch her breath to finish the sentence. "Beautiful," Olivia breathlessly finshed for her. "Yeah, excatly what I was trying to say," Casey said with a chuckle, which made Olivia laugh too.

'I wonder what she'd do if I grabbed her ass...' Olivia wondered to herself. Just then, Olivia reached her arm around Casey's waist and grabbed her ass. Casey jumped a little because she didn't expect Olivia to do that. Olivia smirked when Casey broke out in giggles. "I love your giggles."

"And I love your smile, Livia." 'Hmm..Livia? Sounds like a good "pet-name" to me', Olivia thought to herself, amused.

"You know you love it when I touch your ass."

Casey laughed and replied back to Olivia, "You know, you are the only person I would let touch me there without kicking their ass afterwards." Casey's comment made Olivia laugh. "I love your laugh, Babe."

"Ooh, Fiesty! And I love you and your striking emerald green eyes...your beautiful soft red hair...your wonderfully curved body...your ass..and most of all, everything about you," Olivia told Casey with a dreamy look on her face.

"Aww Liv, you are such a romantic!" Casey's comment made Olivia laugh.

"It's about midnight now," Casey said, looking at the alarm clock on the nightstand behind Olivia.

"Wanna cuddle with me until we fall asleep? You don't have to if you don't feel comfortable with it," Olivia asked Casey, hoping Casey would hold her tonight.

"And miss the chance to hold my Livia? I think not! C'mere Baby!" Casey said trying to make Olivia giggle. Olivia chuckled at Casey's humerous comment.

"Hold me?" Olivia pouted at Casey, looking at the beautiful red head with puppy-dog eyes.

"I can't hold you if you don't turn around, Liv," Casey told Olivia with a smile on her face. Olivia turned around on her side to face the nightstand and felt Casey's warm arms wrap around her, one arm draped over her waist and Casey slid her other arm under Olivia's armpit and brung her hand up to caress the skin where Olivia's heart is. "Mmm...baby that feels so good," Olivia told Casey with a dreamy look on her face. Casey rested her head on Olivia's shoulder "Baby?" Casey asked.

"Yeah, Sweetie?"

"How long have you loved me?" Casey asked Olivia, curious about her answer.

"Well...honestly, the first time I laid my eyes on you when you walked into the squad room to replace Alex Cabot. How long have you loved me?"

"When I first saw you, especially in action," Casey told Olivia, waggling her eyebrows at her last comment.

"Haha, Casey you are too funny. I guess I really do believe in 'Love at first sight'." Olivia announced sleepily.

"Sweetie? I have one more question," Casey cautionly told Olivia.

"Mmhmm?"

"Did you love Alex like you love me?"

Stunned at Casey's question, she cautionly answered it truthfully, "We were girlfriends about two years before she was killed. But we broke up after about a month of going out. There was no love, just a slight attraction. We continued to stay friends but we never slept together if you're wondering. We just went our separate ways; she stopped dating and focused on her career and I just focused on my job and nothing else...until you came along that is, and now I can't stop thinking about you."

Casey leaned up towards Olivia's face and placed two soft, lingering kisses on her jawline. "Love you, Benson."

"Love you, Novak." Olivia brought her hand up and gently placed it on top of Casey's hand that was caressing her heart.

The two women fell asleep with Olivia still in Casey's arms; one arm around her waist and one arm under Olivia's armpit softly rubbing the exposed skin where her heart lies beneath the warm flesh, with Olivia's hand still placed on Casey's.
