A/N: Firstly, thank you to all my reviewers! Honestly, if I hadn't gotten any reviews for this I wouldn't be doing this chapter.. but here you go! SPECIAL APPEARANCE BY BISHOP! Hahaha she goes rounds with my oh so favourite OC… Marissa Benson (if you've read my story, 'Once Upon An Adolescence', you will know who she is:))

Disclaimer: sobs Still don't own it… I only own my two brilliant detectives Marissa Benson (Olivia Benson's fictional twin sister) and Adam Walters (imagine Cooper from Eurotrip:))

A/N2 (V. Important Notice!): If I don't update this again before Tuesday the 31st of January, it may have breaks of up to 3 weeks between updates. I apologize for any serious typing errors in the text after 31st of January. I start school again on Feb 1st and have exams halfway through the year (MSE testing:(), so I will be very busy. But, as always, I will find time for this and my other stories.

Chapter 2: What do you expect?

…Flashback…

'Shit…' She muttered under her breath, tears stinging at her eyes. She looked at the stick once more, only to see the little blue lines, taunting her. Standing up, she took a deep breath and walked out of the bathroom, tossing the test into the garbage on her way out. Wiping furiously at her eyes, she sat down at her desk, and flashed her partner a reassuring smile.

'Alex, you okay?' Bobby Goren asked, worry filling his deep brown eyes. Alex sighed, biting her lip.

'I will be… Promise…' She whispered, reaching out her hand. He held onto it, stroking it gently.

'I love you.' He mouthed to her. She smiled gently, and rubbed her foot against his leg under the desk.

'I love you, too…' She mouthed back. The two quickly let go of each other as their, as they put it, evil co-workers, Marissa Benson and Adam Walters, walked towards them.

'Could you two possibly save it for tonight?' Marissa asked, setting a tray of coffee on the desk between them.

'Thanks for the advice, Rissa.' Alex said sarcastically, then it dawned on her. She shot up out of her seat and grabbed Marissa, dragging her into the bathroom.

'Ouch! What the fuck are you doing, Alex?' Marissa asked, trying to pry Alex off of her arm.

'Rissa… I'm pregnant…' She said, tears rolling down her cheeks.

'Oh my god, congratulations, hon!' Marissa said, pulling her best friend into a hug. Alex pushed her away gently, and turned around, letting the tears fall freely.

'I'm going to assume this wasn't planned…' Marissa stated, more to answer her own questions about her friends relationship with one another.

'Isn't assume a real big word for you, Benson?' Lynn Bishop spat, as she walked into the room. Marissa turned around to face her, willing herself not to kill Bishop.

'Here's an idea, Bishop… Why don't you go fuck yourself and stop being such a slutty little bitch.' Marissa snarled, eyes burning with anger. Alex smiled gently. God did she love seeing Marissa and Lynn have one of their little battles. Whoever said that women don't enjoy getting into verbal, or even physical fights, was seriously mistaken. Either that or they had never met Marissa Janae Benson.

'Ha! Me? A slut? Have you looked at yourself lately, Benson?' Lynn asked, looking Marissa up and down. 'Tight-ass low riding jeans, skanky revealing tops… I'm shocked that you haven't been fired.'

'You forgot mini-skirts…' Alex added. Marissa smiled.

'Exactly… Mini-skirts… I'm only wearing jeans today 'cause I had to go dumpster diving with Adam.' Marissa said proudly. Lynn scowled, and walked out, mumbling to herself. Marissa took a deep breath and turned back to Alex.

'Well, was it planned?' Marissa asked.

'Nope… And promise me you will not breath a word of this, okay? Especially not to Liv.' Alex said, gripping onto Marissa's hands.

'Ally, she lives with us… She'd have to be blind, deaf and mute not to notice…'

'You mean…'

'Yeah… I figured it out a couple of days ago.'

'I only found out today, though.'

'Well I notice this kind of shit, alright? Remember I spent two freakin' years in Special Victims.'

'Oh, I'm a victim, am I?'

'No… But you have to tell Bobby, okay?'

'Fine, I'll tell him tonight… If that will shut you up.' Alex sighed, rubbing at her temples. Marissa pulled her friend into a gentle hug, and the pair stood there for a while, Alex just trying to register all of this in her mind. Her… a mother…

Alex gently pushed her hair out of her face as she answered the door, to reveal a very nervous looking Bobby Goren. Alex smiled, and led him inside, kissing him gently on the cheek on the way in.

'Very nice…' He said, smiling, as she twirled around, her golden curls bouncing.

'Not so bad yourself…' She replied, grinning. God, he loved her smile. He held out his arm, and she took hold of it. The pair grabbed their coats, and Alex her purse and house keys, and left the house. Sure she was nervous, it was their first public appearance together. Except for their first date but their colleagues and friends weren't there that time. That, and the fact that she was going to announce her pregnancy to her one and only.

'Bobby… we need to talk…' Alex whispered into his chest, looking up at him. Bobby dropped a kiss onto her forehead, and led her over to their table.

'Ally, honey… What's wrong?' he asked her, gripping onto her hands. She swallowed. 'This is it, Alex…' she thought to herself.

'You know how we spent that night together a few months ago?' She asked, tears stinging at her eyes.

'Yeah… Alex, please… I need to know what's wrong…'

'Okay… Screw being discreet… I'm pregnant, Bobby…' She finally blurted, squeezing her eyes shut. She felt his hands release hers, and her eyes shot open. Alex saw Bobby walking across the room to the bar. Racing over to him, she sat down next to him, and studied him carefully with her eyes.

'Bobby… Please say something…' She whispered, hurt filling both her eyes and voice.

'Alex, what the hell do you expect me to say?' He spat, downing a glass of scotch.

'Anything…' She begged. He turned and looked at her, fear filling his brown eyes.

'I don't know what to say about this… Why didn't you tell me sooner?' He asked.

'I only found out this morning… I had a hunch… And I was right…' She muttered.

'God, Alex… we were being so goddamn careful…'

'Oh bullshit, Bobby… And don't you dare try to pin this on me…'

'I never said I was going to… Alex, I don't know how I feel about this… Honestly… Do you remember when you asked me how I felt about abortion?' That was it… She was in hysterics now. She stood up, and slapped him, hard, across the face.

'Is that how much I fucking mean to you? You're saying that all those times you said you loved me, you were lying… I told you how much I wanted children… And you even said that you'd like children some day…'

'Alex, baby, calm down…' He cut in, but she slapped him again, tears flowing even harder.

'And now, you want me to get an abortion? That's fucking shit, Bobby… You fucking lied to me… You said I was the only woman you ever truly loved, and I believed you! If you really loved me, you'd want this baby…'

'Alex! You didn't let me finish…' Tears were stinging at the back of Bobby's eyes, but he willed them not to fall. Not now…

'I don't care anymore! Goodbye Robert Goren…' She said coldly, and ran outside into the freezing air, and as if on queue, the heavens opened. Rain fell down, dragging what remained of Alex's self control with it. She let out an ear-piercing scream, and fell to the ground sobbing…

Standing back up, she decided a walk could calm her down… That was until she heard the doors swing open, and footsteps hurrying towards her…

A/N: Oooooh! Now you all know what Bobby said to make her so angry… Next chapter will be about what he was going to say before Alex cut him off:) Oh yeah.. And review!
