Chapter 1: Life Changing Event
Friday, September 16, 2005 started out as an ordinary day for most everybody.
However, for SVU 1-6 precinct ADA Casey it was a day she would not think about. She didn't celebrate her birthdays anymore and decided to let it go and wanted to work all day, working on notes for the upcoming trial.
Nevertheless over at the precinct, Detective Olivia Benson and ME Melinda Warner had other plans in mind. They had been secretly planning a special birthday celebration/girl's night out for their ADA.

As Olivia wrapped up work for the day, mostly paperwork since she and Elliot had caught the sick perp who had been eluding them for weeks.
She finished the last line on the last page of the form, she felt someone tap her on the shoulder. Olivia turned around and saw it was their ME Melinda Warner all ready to go.
"Ready to go and spring the surprise on our ADA?" asked Melinda.
"Yep, I am sure am."
"See you tomorrow Elliot," said Olivia after getting all over belongings.
"Have fun you guys," called Elliot as he was finishing up the last of his load of the paperwork.
Half an hour later they were at 1 Hogan Place and on their way up to Casey's office.
They knocked first.
"Come in," said Casey not realizing what was about to happen.
"Hey Casey," said Olivia.
"Detective Benson, ME Warner is there anything you need help with?"
"Uh, it is more like what we can do for you," replied Melinda.
Casey looked baffled. Then it hit her.
"Oh no, if it is about my birthday you can forget about it," said Casey adamantly.
"Oh come on now stop being a sourpuss. We are taking you on a night on the town, we will not take no for answer, and it is OUR treat," Olivia said trying again.
Casey seriously was about to say no when out of nowhere she heard her boss, DA Arthur Branch spoke out.
"Casey Novak you will go to the dinner your friends have planned for you and that is an order."
Casey knew she couldn't defy her boss' orders.
So she, "Ok all right. Let me put my stuff away and then we will leave."
What Casey hadn't planned on was having fun but she did. Little did she realize her life would soon change.
A/N 2: Thanks for reading chapter 1 of "Lives Impacted". Reviews are appreciated but please be nice as this is my first SVU story in over eighteen months.
