February
Casey and Olivia had been dating for almost a month when Valentine's Day approached. After the first night they spent sleeping on Olivia's couch, things seemed to look up for both the Detective and the ADA. Each felt that the daily stresses of their jobs would melt away once they were together.
Casey was planning what she was going to do to make Valentine's Day special for her girlfriend. She figured that she would cook dinner at her place—and, if the mood was right, she would tell Olivia that she was falling in love with her. Casey decided that she should get to work on the planning, seeing as the big day was only one night away.
As Olivia Benson walked into the precinct on the morning of the 13th, the last thing on her mind was work. She, of course, realized that Valentine's Day was tomorrow and she was anxious. Never in her whole life had she actually looked forward to Valentine's Day. She never really had someone special to share it with—that was, until she met Casey. Olivia knew that Casey had planned for the two of them to have dinner at her apartment, and they both agreed not to buy each other presents. Instead, they decided that they would give something that wasn't material—this way it would be much more personal for them.
The 13th continued like any other day, leaving Olivia working at her desk into the early hours of the morning. Elliot, of course, was there with her.
"So," he said, "do you and Casey have any big plans for tomorrow?"
"Not really, but I…" she started, "wait, how did you know that Casey and I were dating? Did she tell you?"
"I'm offended, Liv." He stated plainly, "You don't think that I can read you like a book by now? Please, I knew that you had the hots for Casey before you did. All I can say is that it's about damn time."
Olivia looked at him and smiled.
"So, have you two had sex yet?"
"Elliot! I'm not discussing my sex life with you!"
"I'll take that as a 'no'" he said with a laugh.
"Not that it's any of your business," she informed him, "but I didn't want to ruin things by moving too quickly."
"Oh my gosh, Liv. You love her." He said rather simply.
Olivia looked at him for a long time before answering. "Yeah," she said, "I guess I do. Do you think it's too soon?"
"Liv, if it's love, it's never too soon."
"You sound like a fortune cookie, Elliot!" she joked, "and since when are you the relationship expert?"
He knew that she was joking, and even though his relationship with Kathy usually made him sad—especially now—he joined Olivia in her laughter. Their laughs echoed throughout the empty squad room until Olivia finally was able to go home for a few hours.
The next day was a crazy one for both Casey and Olivia. Three cases were settled between both the police and the DA's offices, and they were well on their way to completing a fourth. If they kept up this pace, the record would be broken by the end of the year.
Olivia and Casey ran into each other only once, at the courthouse at around noon. They barely had time to talk to each other before each had to run in their respective directions. With a quick kiss and a "see you later," they continued with their insanely busy days.
Miraculously, both women were actually done at work by 7:30. Olivia took a cab back to her apartment, and got ready as fast as she could. She then departed for Casey's.
When she got there, Casey eagerly answered the door. "Hey, Liv! Happy Valentine's Day! Come on in."
"Thanks, babe. Happy Valentine's Day! It smells awesome in here! What are you cooking?"
"I honestly don't know," she giggled as she took Olivia's coat, "I just threw some stuff in a pan and hoped for the best."
"If you made it, I'm sure it tastes wonderful." Olivia said, as she walked up behind Casey who was now fussing over the salad. She tried to take a tomato from the bowl that her girlfriend was dealing with. Casey quickly swatted away her hand.
"Oh, no," Casey said, turning around, "none of that." Her lips met Olivia's in passionate kiss. "At this rate," she continued, "I'll never get dinner done!"
About 20 minutes later, the two women finally sat down to eat.
"This is delicious, Casey. I had no idea you could cook!"
Casey blushed a little. "My parents weren't around very much when I was growing up—they always had one party or another—so I was pretty much left to make dinner for myself and my younger sister. I'm afraid I can't do much more than this, though."
Olivia smiled, "I have to admit it Case, I've never looked forward to Valentine's Day before…I never had someone to share it with and now that I have you, well, things are looking up."
"I feel the same way, Liv. I haven't even dated in years…my past relationships were absolute disasters…but, I already feel something different with you."
Olivia smiled. They continued to eat in comfortable silence. After they had finished dinner, Olivia tried to help Casey clean up.
"You don't have to, Liv. I'll be done in a minute. Besides, dinner was my gift to you; you shouldn't have to clean it."
Reluctantly, Olivia sat back down. She watched was Casey ran around the kitchen cleaning up the remains of their dinner.
When she was done, they sat on Casey's couch. "What do you want for dessert?" Casey asked.
"You." Olivia said simply and leaned over to kiss Case passionately.
"Wait, are you sure? I thought you said you wanted to wait for a while." Casey questioned between kisses.
"Absolutely. I think I love you, Case."
"You think?" Casey laughed, "Well, Olivia, I think that I possibly might love you, too. But are you completely sure you want to?"
"Yes, Casey. More than anything. That is, if you want to."
Casey didn't answer. She just swung on leg over Olivia's and started kissing her.
"That means yes?" Olivia jokingly questioned.
"Just shut up and kiss me."
Olivia's laugh was lost on Casey's lips as they met in another fiery kiss.
Casey reached down between their bodies and slowly started unbuttoning Olivia's shirt. One by one the buttons came undone, each time revealing a little more of Olivia that Case had yet to see. Once Casey had successfully unbuttoned Olivia's shirt, she slid it slowly off of the detective's shoulders. Olivia gasped when the cold air hit her skin. She quickly pulled at the edges of Casey's top and pulled it off easily. She paused for a moment.
"Are you ok, Liv?" We can stop now if you want.
"No, no! I'm fine…it's just you do have a bedroom, don't you?"
Casey giggled and pointed to the closed bedroom door. Olivia picked Casey up in her arms and started making her way towards the other end of the apartment.
"My, Detective Benson, how chivalrous you are!" Casey said in a mock southern accent.
"Just trying to do my job, Miss Novak."
"What job would that be?" Casey said sexily.
"Making you scream while I'm inside you." Olivia said calmly.
By the time Olivia had completed the trip to the bedroom, Casey had never been more turned on in her life. Olivia gently laid Casey on the bed and got to work undressing her. She reached behind Casey and unclasped her bra, letting in fall off her pale shoulders.
Olivia stared in appreciation at the newly exposed flesh. She looked into Casey's eyes, which were darkened almost to the point of blackness. She kissed the attorney's lips quickly and fervently. She moved down her body, placing quick kisses on her collarbone and finally her breasts. She took a pale nipple in her mouth and lavished it with kisses. Casey let out a slight moan at the soft touch of Olivia's tongue.
The small sound was all it took to encourage Olivia to continue further down Casey's body. She placed random kisses down the long expanse of the blonde's torso. She slowly unzipped the jeans of her lover and slid them down her alabaster thighs. Her panties soon followed.
Olivia couldn't help but giggle a little.
"Is my nakedness funny to you, Detective?"
"No, you're absolutely stunning—it's just that I almost forgot you were naturally a redhead!"
"Real mature, Liv!" Casey countered, but was cut short by Olivia spreading the counselor's legs as far as they would go.
"Please, Olivia…"
"Please what, honey? What do you want?"
"Everything." She sighed.
That was all the coaxing that Olivia needed, as she immediately entered the woman beneath her with a single finger. She slowly kissed the skin directly above Casey's hipbone as she thrust her finger in and out.
"Liv…oh my gosh…please…more." Casey moaned. She couldn't make any coherent sentenced.
Olivia smiled against Casey's hip and added another finger. She could tell Casey was close, and when she started to tighten around Olivia's fingers, Olivia lowered her head and captured the sensitive bud in her mouth. That sent Casey over the edge.
Casey barely managed a hoarse "Oliiiiiiva!" before she nearly passed out.
Olivia crawled up to the top of the bed and held Casey as she came down from her high.
"Wow," Casey sighed when she could finally breathe again, "that was arguably the best Valentine's Day present in the history of the world."
Olivia laughed and kissed her forehead.
"Now it's your turn," Casey said a little sleepily.
"Nope. Not tonight. That was your present. Now we both have to get some sleep—it's late and we do have to go to work tomorrow."
Casey smiled. "You're staying, right?"
"I wouldn't have it any other way." Olivia said as she continued to hold Casey in her arms.
A/N: so that was my first attempt at smut! I'm sorry if it sucked. Please review (but be gentle!) March is next—be prepared for a lot of green. :-)
