This here is my first attempt at a crossover between two of my favorite shows. Hope you enjoy it.
Olivia Benson and her roommate Joanne Polniaczek were playing a friendly game of one on one when they were startled by a scream. Turning to see what had happened they missed the basketball and spotted the two blondes sitting on one of the bleachers. The taller of the two blondes was laughing as the other swatted at the sleeve of her blazer.
"Hey girls, how 'bout a little help here?" Jo called pointing at the ball sitting at their feet.
The blonde that had screamed looked from the ball back to Jo and Liv. "You want me to touch that? I think not."
"It's only a ball Blair, it's not going to bite you." Alex Cabot laughed getting up from her spot on the bleacher and picking up the ball and tossing it back making an impressive shot. "Here you go girls."
Olivia and Jo shared a look before turning back to Alex. "That's some arm you got there. Are you new here?"
Walking across the court Alex came to stand next to Olivia. "Yes, I transferred in last week. Alexandra Cabot but you can call me Alex."
Taking the offered hand Olivia shook it and introduced herself. "Olivia Benson, nice to meet you. This here is my roommate Jo."
Jo nodded and offered a small wave. "Welcome to Eastland."
"Thanks, so far everyone has been really nice and the teachers are pretty easy going." Alex smiled as she continued to meet Olivia's eyes as she spoke.
"Alexandra come on, we're going to be late." Blair Warner called from where she was left standing.
"Hey Blair, can't you see we're talking here?" Jo called back, her accent adding an extra sharpness.
Blair brushed her hair over her shoulder. "Oh Jo, you finally learned to speak in sentences."
Liv grabbed Jo by the arm before she could make a move towards Blair. "And on that note Alex I think we need to go get cleaned up for dinner. See you there?"
Alex smiled and nodded. "I'd like that. See you there." With that she turned and walked back to Blair.
Jo bumped Liv's shoulder as they walked back towards the dorms. "Looks like someone's got a crush."
A slight blush colored her cheeks as she bumped Jo back. "Shut up. She's new, I was just being friendly."
"Sure, that's all it was." Jo agreed as they made it back to their room. "You get that dreamy look on your face every time a new girl starts."
Liv tossed her sweaty jersey at her friend. "Tease all you want but you're fooling no one. Especially me. You and Blair may sit and act like you hate each other but I know the little game you're playing."
The color slowly drained from Jo's face as she pulled on her robe.
"Hey don't worry about it. Your secret is safe with me." Liv said patting Jo on the back. "That's what friends are for."
"So Blair, what's the deal with you and Jo?" Alex asked as they walked towards the dorms.
Blair linked arms with Alex as they walked. "Oh there is no deal. Jo and I just sort of have this love hate relationship. We pick on each other but won't put up with anyone else picking on each other."
Nodding Alex slightly turned her head as she said. "What about Olivia? She seemed pretty nice."
"Liv is very nice. Probably one of the smartest girls here at Eastland." Blair went on. "Her only real down fall is she's Jo's best friend."
"Oh Blair, who are you fooling? You and Jo may have your differences but before I came here you talked about her all the time in your letters." Alex laughed bumping Blair's shoulder.
"Oh fine. Jo's a pretty good friend." Blair sighed.
As they walked into the dorm Mrs. Garrett was hanging something on the bulletin board. "Hello girls." She called out.
"Hi Mrs. Garrett. Have you met my Alex Cabot yet?" Blair asked as they got closer. "The Cabot's and the Warner's go back a long time."
Alex reached for the offered hand. "It's very nice to meet you Mrs. Garrett. Are you the dorm mother?"
"It's a pleasure to meet you as well Alex. I am the dorm mother for this hall as well as the school nutritionist." Mrs. Garrett smiled as she patted her poof of red hair.
"I look forward to seeing what you have planned for dinner." Alex smiled back.
"Alright girls, go get cleaned up for dinner and I'll see you there." Mrs. Garrett said as she turned and waved over her shoulder.
Heading up to their room Alex heard a laugh coming from one of the common rooms. Sitting on the couch talking to a few other girls was Olivia, not sure why but Alex wanted to stop and ask what they were laughing about.
"Ah yes, double trouble are in our dorm too. In fact Jo and Liv are next door to us." Blair commented as she spotted Liv. "Well Liv's not really trouble but that's their nicknames since they are always together. oh and they both have motorcycles they drive everywhere."
Alex just nodded her head at the statement as they continued to their room. The thought of Olivia on a motorcycle bringing a smile to her face. Something told her that coming to Eastland was going to be one of the best experiences of her life.
Liv walked into the cafeteria and waved to a few of the girls as she made her way to the line. Thankfully it was still pretty early so there weren't a lot of people yet. Looking around as she waited she spotted the blonde girl that had been with Blair earlier. Smiling she waved her over.
"Hey you made it." Liv smiled as Alex joined her. "Where's Blair?"
"Hey, thanks for saving me. I was a little lost by myself." Alex smiled taking the tray Liv offered her. "Blair was with me but had to run to drop off a report she had due."
Liv nodded as she picked up a plate with roast beef on it. "Oh that must have been the one for English, she didn't have it earlier in class."
"So what's good here? " Alex asked looking at the choices in front of her.
"Personally I like the roast beef. The chicken is ok but kind of boring." Liv pointed out the different options. "Now these are some of the best mashed potatoes, Mrs. G makes them from scratch. None of those fake ones from the box."
"In that case I'll just follow your lead." Alex smiled as she filled her tray.
Picking up silverware and napkins she turned to Alex. "Wanna sit with me?"
"I'd love to. Thank you." Alex followed Olivia to one of the tables.
The next half hour flew by as the conversation between the two girls flowed easily. Neither noticed their friends sitting on the other side of the room smiling watching them.
